Vol 2 Chapter 657: Build (sincere thanks to the big wild wolf running wildly)

It’s time for the wizard and the militia to say their part. Leocliffe and the others will go to the battlefield, and Alan will also take Merlin away. They need to return to Crohurst Village, where Alan had collapsed before. The work in the smithy has not been completed.
Crowhurst Village reappeared in front of the wizard mentor and his new apprentice. Merlin's mood has calmed down a lot, and he automatically entered a less proficient apprenticeship, which made Alan quite admired, the Slytherin student at least In this way of gaining strength and accomplishing one's own goals, the attitude is relatively correct.
Without going directly into the village, Allen took Merlin to the village under a thick oak tree—the one that Odegar wanted to climb when he missed his hometown.
Allen looked at it for a while, and volleyed at a branch on the tree. The branch broke by itself and flew into Allen's palm. Merlin looked at this scene with surprise in his eyes. This is magic, and I don't know how long it will take to master such a spell. This branch turned into a measuring tape in Allen's hands, flew to Merlin's side, stretched and rolled around Merlin, automatically measuring various data of his body.
After obtaining the data, Allen began to process the oak branch that was restored to its original shape. While making it, he explained the main points of it. After the processing was roughly completed, Allen said to the yearning Merlin: "This is what the wizard uses The tools needed to perform magic are generally wooden long strips. We still have an inner core made by a part of the body of a magical animal, and the rod material also needs time to further process. Each magic wand is unique, if If you use a wand that does not belong to you, the effect of the magic will be greatly reduced. So how to use the wand and how to maximize the effect of the wand depends on the wizard's own abilities-although if you learn and practice hard, you can To a certain extent, get rid of the dependence on the magic wand when casting spells. Ancient wizards didn't use this tool when they first cast spells."
Allen did not make a growth wand for his apprentice but used a more traditional way, because he could not guarantee that Merlin would keep this magical wonder at Hogwarts without causing others to peep after he left. , He didn’t tell his new disciple that his easy-to-follow spell-free spellcasting was due to reading the Netherscroll and changing the method of spellcasting. But now that he became Merlin’s mentor, he felt that he should be responsible. Don’t rely too much on the wand’s apprentice, as Luna reminded him after the Kraken incident.
After doing this, Allen took Merlin across the messy ground of the forge. Among the rubble, Allen directed various forge tools to fly out of the outdoors, and the finished and semi-finished ironware followed. Neatly stacked on one side.
The flames burst out from under the furnace, and Merlin jumped back in fright, and then watched the iron objects fly into the furnace one by one, flying out one by one, the huge hammer flying awkwardly. Came here, just like those kitchen utensils that can automatically wash dishes or the knitting needles that automatically spin sweaters-they ding ding dong bang on these iron tools by themselves.
Then, under the control of magic, these accessories were combined together, and turned into a majestic and heavy iron armor in front of Merlin.
The apprentice wizard couldn’t help but curiously tried to move an armor that had cooled down, and found that he could not move it after dragging and pulling it through various methods, even if it was moved a little bit, it made it even a child’s He also couldn't imagine who this armor was worn, and how it was so heavy and important how to move dexterously in battle-because of the blood of the devil, Merlin had always had confidence in his strength before.
"Merlin, is there a cobbler in your village?" Alan's voice sounded beside Merlin.
"Yes!" Merlin felt very happy to be able to do something for Allen. He pointed to the small road in the village. "Walk along that stream and turn right at the fork. The cobbler lives there. It's The smell is a bit big. People in the village don't allow him to build houses in the village and upstream of the stream. Sometimes I sneak over to watch him skin the animals. It's fun.
"Uh...there are too few entertainment methods for children in this era." After thinking about it, Allen snapped his fingers behind him.
The thumping sound of earthquake-like footsteps sounded, and Merlin was like a frightened rabbit when he saw the person who came, "Tutor, the Vikings are here."
"Don't panic, these are the subordinates under my control." Allen calmed his apprentices, and after the death knights saluted Allen neatly, they ran in the direction Merlin pointed out before, and Allen gave his apprentices He was curious about his eyesight, "Why, have you seen a Viking?"
"Tutor, I haven't seen it." Merlin was still a little afraid to look at the death knights. "But I asked Leo Cliff before what is the difference between us Englishmen and Vikings, and he told me that we Englishmen It’s a human being, and those Vikings are not... and those of your mentor..."
"Although Leocliffe's meaning and your understanding are actually somewhat different, your insight is really good." Allen couldn't help but praise the apprentice's talent, "You have a good perception, these Vikings People are no longer living creatures. This is also the first thing I officially teach you on the path of magic, Merlin, maybe you will meet some white wizards who reject black magic in the future, but I hope you can use your own Judging the problem, my magic path does not exclude any kind of magic. I think that in the study of spells, don’t care about any restrictions-but don’t over indulge in one of them because of your talent in certain aspects. , All things return to the circle. If you lack knowledge in one of these directions, then I think your magic path is no longer complete. Many people think that the path of specialization is better, but their end point is at the beginning of the choice Limited by your own choices, I hope you can also take the path of generalization. You also have the talents that you need to choose this path. Of course, the path of magic needs to be chosen by yourself. You may not understand now , But when you have learned enough knowledge, I hope you can recall this passage..."
During Merlin's contemplation, the death knights returned with some peculiar leather in their hands-cobblers are not a good job in this era, because in order to quickly remove the fat from the hides and preserve them Preventing it from falling off, in this era is done by immersing it in urine. In view of the foul smell at work, tanners settled on the periphery of towns and villages, and belonged to the same class as executioners, butchers and prostitutes, and were marginalized people in society.
Allen asked the death knights to throw the leather into a large pot they brought back from the cobbler's house~EbookFREE.me~ and threw some magic herbs in and boiled them together. Finally, they were still wet after being taken out. The leather that exuded this medicinal smell was embedded in the former iron armor Uchimura.
When everything was finished, Allen ordered these death knights to put on these armors, and their appearance was completely new. In Merlin’s eyes, these death knights were extremely tall and strong, with broad shoulders, and arms as thick as the small trunks of the oak tree just now. Under the armor, they were also wearing unremarkable thick armors called plate armor by their teachers. The armor had a layer of boiled leather inside, and they wore some Viking-style full-cover helmets on their heads. There was no gap except for a narrow hole in the iron fence for observation.
Merlin on the side looked enviously at the shields and axes held by the death knights in the new armor. Although he was young, he wanted to have his own weapons even when he saw the cruelty of the war. In the case of possessing a magic wand. After all, the yearning for knights is the nature of these little boys.
Seeing Merlin's undisguised envy, Allen directed some iron objects to fly into the furnace, and the big axe clinked again. Allen reached out his hand and made gestures, and the iron objects sizzled. Carved voice. Under the fierce friction and collision, the fire was splashing, and a dagger gradually took shape. On the dagger, Alan carved magical runes with a destructive magic shield and sharp special effects.
After the formed dagger was quenched and polished to open the front, Allen handed the cold dagger to Merlin: "This will be a meeting gift for you from the instructor."
Merlin took the dagger with a look of joy, and played with it curiously, looking at the mysterious symbols with a different aesthetic on it.
