"Dong!" The bell rang. It was obviously the signal that the competition was over. At the same time, Montaus raised the entire mold board that he had just made and smashed it on the ground. Of course, the navy blue soil on the outside was smashed to pieces, revealing the bronze-yellow shield inside.
"It's done. I made it just in time." Montos heaved a sigh of relief.
"Is it really done?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes." Montos nodded and heaved a sigh of relief as he sat on the ground. Yes, he was too focused just now. Moreover, he hadn't rested for three whole days. Now that he relaxed, he felt like he was about to collapse. He couldn't even stand.
Li Huailin didn't intend to help Montos up. He picked up the shield that fell out of the mold. After clearing away the remaining soil on it, Li Huailin finally got a good look at the shield.
It looked like a modernized shield. Yes, it was a modernized and minimalistic design. It was different from the fancy shields that appeared in the game. This shield was too clean. There weren't any patterns on it.
The shield looked like a combination of radial rectangular strips. In the middle was a red and black circular pattern. The entire shield looked like a sun. The center was the core, and the surrounding strips looked like they were radiating light. The middle part wasn't made of Vibranium. Li Huailin noticed that Montos had been adding various materials when he injected the Vibranium. These materials formed the red and black ball in the middle. Of course, Li Huailin didn't recognize any of the materials, so he didn't know what this thing was used for.
The entire shield was very beautiful. Of course, that was in the eyes of a modern person like Li Huailin. However, Li Huailin didn't know if this thing was beautiful to NPCs. After all, it was very different from the shields that he had seen before.
However, what made Li Huailin feel more at ease was that this thing was glowing, and it was emitting an orange glow. Yes, this thing was actually a God-tier item. However, Li Huailin couldn't see its specific attributes. If he used Reconnaissance, it would show the word "Shield" in orange with an "Unnamed" symbol behind it. There were no attributes behind it. Of course, this thing didn't show any "Binding" information.
After thinking about it, Li Huailin knew that the previous God-tier items had names. Perhaps the creator of this shield hadn't named it yet, so it wasn't considered a complete piece of equipment.
Of course, Li Huailin was only curious about this thing's attributes. He wasn't greedy. Although it was a divine artifact, the problem was that both of Li Huailin's hands were equipped with divine swords. Putting aside the grade of the divine artifact, no matter how good the shield was, it couldn't possibly be better than a divine sword. Moreover, Li Huailin was a Weapon Warrior. All of his skills had nothing to do with shields, so this thing didn't match up to Li Huailin. Li Huailin didn't really want it either.
While Li Huailin was observing the shield, the examination results had already begun. Of course, the person in charge of the examination results wasn't Saint Lofrey. He was in charge of supervision. Saint Lofrey didn't know much about forging, so the real examination had to be done by professionals.
Although the Fire God wasn't here, it didn't mean that there wasn't anyone in charge of forging in the Realm of the Gods. The person in charge of the examination results was an old man named Santorian. Li Huailin didn't know what kind of god this guy was, but the word "Saint" in his name meant that he had a god's position.
Of course, he didn't come alone. There was a group of his servants, and Li Huailin saw a lot of dwarven servants. Li Huailin had seen the Elven God's Servants before, but these people didn't seem to be from the Divine Race. The real Divine Race should be very similar to the Human Race. These dwarven servants told Li Huailin that people from the mortal world might be able to become servants of god through certain methods. They might even be able to obtain a god's position and be called a true god.
The work of the examination was done by the dwarven servants from different corners. Those who didn't finish their work within the stipulated time were, of course, directly disqualified. There were a lot of people who did this. Some didn't make it in time, some had an accident during the forging process and couldn't call out the finished product, and there were also people like Lutney who had a problem.
After these people were removed, the examination went on to examine the finished products one by one. Unexpectedly, the examination progressed very quickly. Li Huailin observed these examiners. Basically, most of the works didn't take more than 5 seconds. It seemed like they just took a quick glance and directly said, "Eliminated." After saying that, he directly went to the next seat, not explaining why he was eliminated at all.
A small number of examiners would seriously look for a while, and then there would be two results. One was that after looking for a while, the examiner would talk to the blacksmith for a while, then write a few words in their notebook, and then go to the next seat. The other situation was that these examiners would ask the main examiner, which was the old man named Santorian, to go over.
The situation was very obvious. The things that were directly eliminated were things that weren't worth looking at. The things that were asked about after looking a little more carefully were probably things that were worth looking at, and the works that they asked Santorian to come over were the real good works. After all, this competition only selected one winner, so these things that Santorian came over to look at were probably the works that were selected for the final prize.
The examination was carried out in an orderly manner. Of course, at this time, the examiner on Saint Ilofrey's side was also carrying out the examination. Some people didn't admit that they lost. After all, the things that they worked so hard to forge were eliminated after looking at them for a few seconds. They wanted to ask what was wrong, but when they wanted to go up, they were directly pulled away by the examiner next to them, not giving them a chance to refute at all. Saint Ilofrey was also next to Santorian, presiding over the overall situation. Li Huailin observed Saint Ilofrey's attitude towards Santorian. He could see that Santorian's position seemed to be slightly higher than Saint Ilofrey's. It seemed like he was a higher god.
After waiting for a while, an examiner slowly walked towards seat 1307 where Li Huailin and Montos were. Li Huailin guessed that this was the examiner who examined his side. He looked at the examiner. It was a black-bearded Dwarf who looked a little older. He looked kind, but basically everyone in the front row was eliminated in seconds. It seemed like this guy's examination was also very strict.
Li Huailin secretly prepared. If this guy directly said that he was eliminated, Li Huailin would go up and force him to be on his side first. At the very least, he would call Santorian over to take a look.
Passing by Rutney's table, the examiner finally arrived in front of Montos and Li Huailin. At this time, Montos had also rested for a while and caught his breath. Seeing the examiner come over, he was a little nervous as he put down the shield and showed it to the examiner.
"Hmm?" The Dwarf's eyes widened when he saw this thing. He carefully looked at the shield and asked, "This is … vibranium?"
The examiner spoke. This was good news. It meant that the examiner felt that this was something worth looking at. However, he still needed to call Santorian. Hearing the examiner's question, Montos immediately replied, "Yes, this is made with vibranium as the material."
"It's actually vibranium." The Dwarf nodded. This time, he carefully looked at the shield and touched the red and black circle in the middle. He showed a slightly surprised expression. "Is that so? So this is the design, this … this is … "
After thinking for a while, the Dwarf nodded and shouted, "Sir Santorian, please come here and take a look. I found a good piece of work."
Seeing that the Dwarf had called for someone, Li Huailin was a little relieved. It seemed that Montos was quite good. After waiting for a while, Santorian came over. Of course, Saint Ilofleh also came over.
"What is this?" Santorian looked at the shield on the table and showed a surprised expression. "It's Mandela alloy?"
"Sir, what is Mandela alloy? It's made of vibranium, right? "the Dwarf asked.
"It's the same thing. I'm just used to calling it that." Santorian waved his hand, then said to Montos, "This is really a novel material. You actually got it. Come on, young man, the completion is not bad. Introduce your work."
"Yes … yes." Montos seemed to know Santorian as well. When he heard Santorian's question, he replied nervously, "This is a new shield I made. The biggest feature is the material. This shield is made of vibranium, and it's almost indestructible. However, there's another more important thing, which is that I designed a mechanism that can self-detonate. Look, it's in the middle. When the opponent hits this shield, the middle of the shield will explode. Because of the vibranium, the impact of the explosion will of course not hurt the user, but it will hurt the attacker. Not only that, because of the explosion, the impact of the opponent's attack can also cause a mutual cancellation effect … "
At this point, Santorian and a few random reviewers were listening attentively, as if they had heard a very novel design plan and were very surprised. However, Li Huailin couldn't help but interrupt, "F * ck, this is an explosive reactive armor, okay?"
