Chapter 362: Unfathomable
Before we knew it, the sun had already set outside, and the bronze bell that rang with a specific pattern told everyone that it was time for dinner.
Zhou Xu, leaning back in the chair, rubbed his brows and slowly exhaled a long breath.
After studying for this period of time, he felt like a primary school student who suddenly started to study junior high school textbooks. Tired! Really fucking tired! In this short period of time, he obviously couldn't produce any results.
At the same time, there are too few samples. If there were more different samples, he could conduct comparative research, which would definitely be better than it is now.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xu's eyes couldn't help but fall on the silver steel sword on the table.
Putting aside other things, at least Zhou Xu felt that he should be able to solve the problem with the sword.
Theoretically, although he cannot operate this "program", he now has the lowest level of usage authority.
The only thing he was unsure about now was whether he, as a non-elf, could use this elven mantra.
If it doesn't work, he will fall into the embarrassing situation of 'unable to start the program'.
Of course, if that time really comes, it is not impossible for him to solve it. The worst that can happen is that he can go back and find an elf and let the other party master the mantra and use it.
In fact, regardless of whether this matter could be accomplished or not, he was planning to train a craftsman who could master the power of this mantra. After all, he himself had no intention of changing his career to become an enchanting craftsman.
Zhou Xu drew the sword from its sheath, holding the sword in one hand and placing his other hand on the characters engraved with the elves' true words.
Then, one by one, the elf's mantras with special accents came out of Zhou Xu's mouth...
【Basic weapons bless! 】
This was another discovery made by Zhou Xu during his research.
To trigger this mantra combination, you don't need to recite the mantra of 'tough, sharp, and slowly absorb natural energy'.
In fact, it's probably useless if you pronounce it like this.
You can understand that these three mantras are the internal components of this program, and the author of this program named this whole combination "Basic Weapon Blessing", which is the key to start this program.
You only need to recite these six spirit mantras to add the entire combination effect! How did the other party do this? This is another question.
At the same time, it also proved once again that his previous method of using mantras was really very rudimentary, and there was still a lot to learn and study.
Let’s put this issue aside for now. It is not difficult to see from the name of this blessing.
In the old civilization era, this silver steel sword was probably not a magical weapon. It was most likely just a standard equipment for the elven knights.
The mantra characters engraved on the silver steel sword are the carrier of the elves' mantra. What Zhou Xu has to do now is to inject this mantra combination into this carrier.
At that moment, with the infusion of the power of truth, the dim and dormant silver-steel sword seemed to be awakened.
The power of the mantra turned into flowing light, flowing on the sword, making the entire sword shine with silver luster again! The edge of the sword that was faintly visible could make Zhou Xu feel a little cold when he stroked the sword.
Judging from this situation, the condition of this silver steel sword is even better than when Silk just handed it to him.
Zhou Xu could roughly guess the reason.
After all, what he did was equivalent to injecting a wave of energy into the Silver Steel Sword again, allowing the blessing effect of the Silver Steel Sword to return to its best state in an instant.
The next morning, when Zhou Xu met Silk, he returned the silver steel sword to him.
After taking the silver steel sword, Silk looked at Zhou Xu strangely.
"Has the leader finished his research?"
In his opinion, what could be researched in such a short time?
However, in response to Silk's question, Zhou Xu nodded.
"We have completed the research. If everything goes well, we should be able to forge a weapon with the same blessing effect. However, if we want to make a silver-steel sword, we will probably need the mithril and steel you mentioned."
Zhou Xu's words were far beyond Silk's expectations.
Then he couldn't help but pull out a piece of the silver steel sword in his hand and take a look to confirm it.
This action itself is undoubtedly quite rude.
He had just lent the Silver Steel Sword to Zhou Xu for research, and now he has returned it. You can't wait to confirm it on the spot. Isn't it obvious that you are worried that he has done something to your sword?
But after hearing what Zhou Xu said just now, Silk was so concerned that he couldn't help himself.
The moment the silver-steel sword was unsheathed, the shining silver light before his eyes made Silk feel dazed.
As a sword he carried all year round, he knew very well what the Silver Steel Sword was like at ordinary times. If there were any changes, he could basically tell at a glance.
At this moment, he was 100% sure that the Silver Steel Sword had changed. It had become stronger than before! "Chief, have you really figured it out?!"
The impact was so strong that Silk stuttered and his tone was full of disbelief.
I didn't mean to offend Zhou Xu, but their leader was just a human. Even they themselves couldn't understand the ancient elven characters on the silver steel sword, but their leader, a human, actually understood the ancient elven characters?! In response, Zhou Xu just smiled and didn't explain much.
The main thing is that he himself hasn't fully understood the matter, and he can't explain it clearly even if you ask him to.
But in Silk's eyes, this action suddenly became unfathomable.
If you think about it carefully, their leader also has the means of "blessing".
He really didn't notice it before no one told him, but after this period of time, he carefully felt his eyesight and speed, and then thoroughly confirmed that they had indeed become stronger!
As for the recent increase in bone strength and recovery ability mentioned by the villagers, Silk didn't feel anything, and there was no way to test it.
Just as he was thinking this, the crowd around him dispersed, and a burly and swift figure entered Silk's field of vision, causing his face to change instantly.
"This is a supernatural creature?!"
As this thought flashed through his mind, Silk's hand almost instinctively rested on the hilt of the sword.
Just as he was about to draw his sword, Zhou Xu's voice rang out at this moment.
"Thousand years old!"
"Chitose?"
It all happened so fast that Silk looked a little dazed.
Silk was not unfamiliar with this name. Ye Jinghong had told him before that when he fell in the snowstorm, it was the "Thousand-Year-Old Lord" who passed by and picked him up.
However, after winter came, Qiansui would either stay in Zhou Xu's house and sleep in all day, or go out before dawn and come back after dark.
As a result of some strange coincidence, Silk has never seen it until now!
"Your Excellency?"
