Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam?

Although the side effects of its usage would be unbearable, it was still a good last resort.

In Wu Mo's impression, equipment that could produce the heaven and earth reversal effect at the last moment were mostly Legendary or even Divine weapons.

Although the crossbow before him had a few simple functions, some of its equipment effects were still incredibly powerful. That was enough to make up for the equipment's other shortcomings.

Just as he had expected, the crossbow immediately attracted everyone's attention after it was brought onto the stage.

After all, it was the first Epic equipment that had appeared in the auction.

It was fundamentally different from those items of Premium grade.

As for those who could afford to buy the crossbow, such as the children of the aristocratic families and the rich businessmen, they were instantly excited when they saw the crossbow on display.

​ Yao Shan's introduction of the crossbow's functions on the stage made everyone even more excited.

The control effect of freezing, the AoE damage of spreading fire, and the two seconds of invincibility that came with the equipment had undoubtedly aroused their desire to buy it.

"Alright, I'm sure everyone knows the effect of this Epic-grade equipment, the Magnificent Flame Crossbow. The auction will start in five minutes, and the starting price is ¥4,080,000!"

Yao Shan placed the crossbow on the display rack. The people below the stage only needed to pick up a magnifying glass to easily see every detail of the weapon.

After he announced the price, many people below the stage gasped.

Each of them had a net worth of several million, but they were reluctant to spend more than ¥4,000,000 to buy a piece of equipment.

It was true that even though they were able to participate in Treasure Trove Pavilion's auction, most people would find it difficult to accept the starting price of this Epic equipment.

Four million was not a small sum to them, and they would need to spend most of their family fortune to afford it.

Therefore, the auction of the Magnificent Flame Crossbow was destined to be a carnival for only a small number of people.

Only the true rulers of the aristocratic families and the bosses of well-known enterprises could follow the bidding with a blank expression.

Even the cultivators and blacksmiths, whose levels were no less than five stars, had to hesitate for a moment before bidding.

Long-range weapons had limited uses on the battlefield, but they could protect the user to a large extent. Ultimately, the crossbow had a much longer attack range than other cold weapons.

They would not have to fight the enemy head-on, and they could keep attacking for a long time on the battlefield against the Ten Thousand Races.

It was a good choice for many people.

Unfortunately, long-range weapons were not as popular as cold weapons like swords.

If it had been a cold weapon of the same quality, there would have surely been more people bidding.

As Wu Mo considered this, the Magnificent Flame Crossbow's price approached ¥6,000,000, and from the looks of it, it would not stop rising for a while.

"I bid ¥6,300,000! The Magnificent Flame Crossbow is mine!"

The crowd was noisy. Suddenly, a strong man in fur stood up from the first row. His voice was like muffled thunder, his body was strong, and his arms were muscular. One look, and you could tell that he was not an ordinary person.

The price of ¥6,300,000 also discouraged many viewers who wanted to compete for it.

However, some of them had uncertain expressions as if they were considering the pros and cons.

"Hmph, I'll pay ¥6,500,000. The He family can't do anything in Jingdu yet."

Not long after the middle-aged man spoke, a deep and hoarse voice rang out near Wu Mo.

Wu Mo subconsciously turned his head and saw an old man in plain clothes on the third seat next to him. He was speaking with a cold expression.

The old man had a head of gray hair, and his face was covered in fine wrinkles. His skin was slightly yellow, and one could tell that he was old. However, his eyes were extremely bright, and his beard had traces of being trimmed. At first glance, he looked like a sage.

Be that as it may, what surprised Wu Mo the most were the six silver auspicious clouds printed on the man's chest.

If one looked closely, one would notice that the man's clothes were extraordinary. The cloth seemed slightly tough and able to provide a good defense.

"He's actually a six-star blacksmith. It appears that Treasure Trove Pavilion will be auctioning off a real treasure this time."

A six-star blacksmith would not care so much about an Epic-grade piece of equipment because with his strength, he could completely forge it himself.

Despite that, the old man's expression seemed to suggest that he was determined to keep the Magnificent Flame Crossbow in his bag, and that he was going to compete with the muscular martial artist from before.

'Interesting...'

Wu Mo's eyebrows rose slightly, and he continued to watch the show in silence.

Soon, the bidding got heated because each item could only be auctioned for five minutes. Once the time was up, the highest bidder would automatically get the item.

Therefore, the subsequent bids were often raised in increments of several hundred thousand.

When the Magnificent Flame Crossbow's price reached ¥7,300,000, the middle-aged man and the old man who was a six-star blacksmith finally fell silent.

Wu Mo couldn't help but click his tongue in wonder.

The Magnificent Flame Crossbow was not too amazing. It was just better than most Epic equipment, but Wu Mo did not expect people to bid more than ¥7,000,000 on it. It was shocking.

Soon, the 13th round of the auction ended, and more equipment was continuously presented.

Wu Mo was on the brink of falling asleep from waiting, but there was no sign of the graphite powder going on stage.

Since most of the items sold were equipment or animal materials, very few materials produced in the natural world would be put up for auction.

'I'm so worried. Why hasn't the graphite powder gone on stage yet?'

Just as Wu Mo was about to continue closing his eyes to rest, he suddenly heard a low discussion behind him.

"What's wrong? Don't tell me you want to compete with those smithing families?" a young man in his 30s asked.

"No, it's not that. A few days ago, the Forest Wolf Mercenary Group organized an event. Whoever can repair the Legendary necklace, New Moon, will be given the Core Nectar."

"But the New Moon Necklace is heavily damaged. Even six-star blacksmiths can't do anything about it. Only the blacksmith families can work together to complete it. Also, since they don't have any important energy transfer material, they have to buy a lot of graphite powder."

After he said this, the young man crossed his legs.

"It's a pity that although its price is high, because no one usually uses it, even the large chambers of commerce don't have any stock. The only source of the graphite powder is Treasure Trove Pavilion."

"Oh, no wonder those blacksmith families have all come to participate in this auction. I was wondering why there were so many people this time!"

The friend next to him immediately slapped his thigh with joy.
