Indeed, a piece of equipment forged from grade A alloy might not necessarily be a grade A equipment.
There were many details that could be determined, including the handling of the material, the looseness and tightness of the structure, and the effects and functions of the equipment.
The theory was not hard to understand. Similar to how a common blacksmith forged the same piece of iron in the old civilization, the swords forged by a master swordsmith and a common blacksmith would be different.
It was not hard to understand the theory at all. Similar to the old civilization, the swords forged by a master swordsmith and a common blacksmith would be different from each other.
A piece of equipment must be appraised by them before its value would be recognized by the world.
Boss Huang explained to Tang Ling as he picked up Tang Ling's grade A alloy longsword and said, "This longsword of yours isn't appraised, but it's not worth the appraisal fee either. It's just a random piece of equipment. At most, it's between grade C and grade B. From what I can see, the ore isn't purified enough, the number of times it's forged isn't high enough, and the forging technique is crude. Still, you don't have to be too concerned about it. This kind of equipment can be recycled and reforged, so it's not a waste. In this era, efficiency is important, and products from the assembly line are the main focus. "
Regardless of what Boss Huang said, the knowledge had planted a seed in Tang Ling's heart. His love for smithing increased.
It was terrifying. The smithing maniac's passion for smithing had increased …
On top of that, he made up his mind to start crafting his own weapons with grade A alloys as the starting material.
After the excitement from the greatsword and his Precise Instinct, a single weapon was not suitable for Tang Ling.
Since an A-grade alloy might not necessarily be an A-grade weapon, would he be able to forge an A-grade weapon himself? Hmm, I'll start from the bottom.
Tang Ling could not hold back his thoughts and told Boss Huang about it. Boss Huang did not comment on it and only encouraged Tang Ling with a few words of encouragement, but he was actually overjoyed.
After the two of them ended the topic, Tang Ling picked up a leather glove that he looted from the black-robed clergy and said to Boss Huang, "Boss, can you forge a tactical movement disk for me?"
Tang Ling was not trying to take advantage of Boss Huang, but he believed that with Boss Huang's craftsmanship, a tactical movement disk should not be difficult to forge.
"Sure, if you can get your hands on the core chip of the tactical movement disk, I'll get it for you anytime." Boss Huang did not elaborate, but his gaze was mocking.
"You don't have one?" Tang Ling was a little surprised. He did not ask what a core chip was. Back then, when he was explaining what the tactical movement disk was, he had mentioned the existence of the chip.
However, if the Hope Barrier had something like this, how could Boss Huang not have it?
"Of course not! It was something distributed by the Supreme Council of this world, and was usually only distributed to forces that had formed a certain scale. What do you think my Dvesha Moha is? Why would such a thing exist? "Boss Huang retorted.
"Then, I should be able to get it from the black market." Tang Ling's mind was rather flexible.
"Yes, but it's expensive. Controlled items were very expensive! Instead of spending that money, why don't we just make the finished product? It's much simpler. That's what everyone thinks, "Boss Huang said.
"No, I want to build my own tactical movement disk." Tang Ling rejected the idea of a finished product. He believed that there must be good and bad tactical movement disks, and since the disk was so important to him, he must build it meticulously.
Boss Huang did not say anything, but from his point of view, Tang Ling's idea was the right one. The tactical movement disk was very important. Instead of just making a finished product, it would be better to spend a lot of effort and money to build one.
However, reality was cruel and resources were scarce. How many people could support such ambition?
"What do you think? What are you going to do with these materials?" After chatting with Tang Ling for a long time, he still had to get to the main point.
"How do I use these crystals?" Before Tang Ling gave his suggestion, he decided to get to the bottom of it.
"My suggestion is to refine the superalloy. If the attributes are suitable, you can use it to nurture your sword. Don't forget that your Blood Bulrush Sword is still a broken sword. If it's not suitable, Dvesha Moha can buy it and you can keep it for yourself. "Boss Huang's suggestion was fair.
"Mm-hmm." Tang Ling nodded. He looked at the pile of materials and said, "I'd like to ask you to help me build an inner armor. I'll use the best materials here. Keep the skin membranes and sell the rest.
"As for the payment for the inner armor, you can take it as you see fit, boss."
Boss Huang nodded and glanced over the pile of materials. Tang Ling was a ruthless person, so he took every shell that he could from the red-robed bishop.
These shells were more than enough to make an inner armor.
After thinking for a while, Boss Huang said, "I'll use these shells as payment for forging the inner armor. I'm talking about the top few pieces. No matter how much is left, it will be my reward. "
"Sure." Tang Ling should not be stingy, but he was generous.
"If you're willing to let Dvesha Moha take back the rest of them, I'll give them to you. I'll give you 750 Black Sea coins. Of course, if you sell it, you can get more Black Sea coins. It's all up to you. "Boss Huang was straightforward. This was the way of doing business.
"I'll take them back from Dvesha Moha." Tang Ling looked calm on the surface, but deep down, he was overjoyed. 750! This is a huge sum of money! Am I going to be rich?
This was all Tang Ling could do, and he could not be considered rich at all. The reason why he wanted to sell the materials instead of keeping them all for himself was that he needed to draw the body array. The most important material was the Level 9 vicious beast blood that he got from the Mysterious Store.
However, other than the blood, he would need other materials and it would cost him a fortune. After all, the Mysterious Store produced the formation.
On top of that, Tang Ling wanted to try the cultivation room in Darkness Port.
The strength of nine bulls and two tigers might seem like the peak of a Purple Moon Warrior, but unless he unlocked the gene lock, he would not be able to break through again.
However, anyone with a little common sense would know that even though the energy could not be absorbed or converted, it could still be stored in the dantian.
There were benefits to breaking through the gene lock.
As for the specific benefits, there were two. Firstly, breaking the gene lock would require more energy, and the more, the better.
Secondly, once the gene lock was broken through, the brand-new body would require a large amount of energy, so one could try their best to reach the peak. Some people even reached the peak of rank 1 Purple Moon Warrior the moment they broke through.
Even a normal Purple Moon Warrior would have these benefits, and for Tang Ling, there was one more benefit. His iron body would be cleansed by the energy.
In short, the more energy he accumulated, the better.
Why were geniuses valued so much? It was because they had already met the requirements to become a Purple Moon Warrior, so they had plenty of time. They could choose not to break through and reach the peak to accumulate energy.
As for non-geniuses, they might only meet the requirements to become a Purple Moon Warrior when they were 27 or 28 years old. Who would have the courage to break through and accumulate energy? If they waited until they were 30 years old, it would mean that there was less room for improvement since the body had its golden age.
Unless one became a Rank 3 Purple Moon Warrior, the golden age would be extended.
After being in the circle of geniuses for a long time, one would have the misconception that becoming a Purple Moon Warrior was a simple task. One would not have to worry about it and one would have to pursue better things.
However, the reality was cruel. In Safety Sector No. 17, the strongest person Tang Ling had killed was Clyne Agnes, but he was only a Rank 3 Purple Moon Warrior despite his age.
The last point was also the most heart-wrenching one.
Once a Purple Moon Warrior reached a certain level and broke through to become a Purple Moon Warrior, they would be the top Purple Moon Warrior and would be on a whole different level compared to a common Purple Moon Warrior.
They could even fight above their rank! Part of the reason was that they had reached the peak and broke through in their best condition. On top of that, they could also accumulate enough energy and break through to mid-stage or even high-stage Purple Moon Warrior.
Due to all these reasons, Tang Ling had to accumulate a lot of energy.
According to Tang Ling's calculations, he would need at most half a month to break through to the strength of nine bulls and two tigers.
He would use the rest of the time to accumulate energy.
Was it a lot of time? No, it was very little. Like the young geniuses who competed with Tang Ling in the Hell Ledge Competition, many of them had reached the strength of nine bulls and two tigers and had been accumulating energy for a long time.
For example, Tang Long's accumulation must be astonishing.
Tang Ling and Tang Long had fought when they were still Purple Moon Warriors. If both of them had just broken through, Tang Ling would not have been a match for Tang Long because of the accumulation.
Those who had yet to reach the strength of nine bulls and two tigers might have given up and devoted themselves to accumulating energy.
After all, it was good to be in the perfect condition, but it was not necessary.
For example, those with outstanding talents would focus on their talents in the future and would not be as demanding on their bodies.
For example, Han Xing devoted himself to the path of the sword. To him, the improvement of the path of the sword was more important than the improvement of his realm.
Of course, Han Xing did not give up completely because he had some understanding of the strength of two tigers.
On top of that, the path of the sword was very special. It did not even have a strict requirement on energy as the focus was on the sword intent.
It was imaginable that there were only a handful of freaks like Han Xing in this batch of geniuses.
Tang Ling was late in accumulating energy, but there was nothing he could do since he started late too.
The only way was to use a huge amount of money and resources to catch up.
Hopefully, he could reach an average level among the geniuses. That was what Tang Ling hoped for.
Boss Huang had no idea about Tang Ling's plan, and even if he did, he would not have helped. It was not a good thing for a genius to grow too smoothly and rely on others.
On the other hand, Boss Huang was delighted that Tang Ling was willing to sell all the materials to Dvesha Moha. The price he offered was not high and was even lower than the market price. He did not expect Tang Ling, the smart kid, to agree right away.
Then, he would put more effort into his inner armor.
Boss Huang made up his mind.
