276 Storm Ax
Elder Song Yiâs comment hit the nail on the head. As a seven-star blacksmith, he directly pointed out the swordâs strengths and weaknesses without seeing it up close.
The blacksmiths standing on the stage were convinced.
âThank you for your comment, Elder Song. I will definitely remember it.â
...
The young man bowed to Song Yi to express his gratitude before he quickly walked down the stage.
In the audience, a group of soldiers and leaders were somewhat confused. The penetrating attack was clearly powerful, but why did it only get a good evaluation?
Even if there were limitations to the attack method, the flaws did not seem to overshadow the advantages.
Although most of them were surprised by the evaluation, no one dared to question Elder Songâs judgment. In the forging field, Elder Songâs ability was 10,000 times better than that of theirs, the laymen.
The discussion in the audience gradually died down. At this time, a staff member in a gray uniform walked in Wu Moâs direction and whispered a few words to him.
Bald Eagleâs expression was filled with vigilance and suspicion. After he saw the staff leave, he curiously asked, âWhat did that person say to you?â
âHe said that Iâm number 18 in the queue,â Wu Mo answered with a smile.
âOh, then Iâll have to look forward to it. If you go on stage and demonstrate the Invisibility Armor and the laser sword, wonât you shock everyone?
âYouâll become the most handsome guy here straight away!â
Bald Eagleâs eyes were filled with anticipation.
After listening to his description, Wu Mo did not know whether to laugh or cry. âThere are many hidden talents in the White River province. There might be even more powerful equipment appearing. Before we see the best equipment, we should keep a low profile.â
âAlright,â Bald Eagle said.
He scratched his head, and Lone Wolf smirked, seeing his defeat.
Their conversation quickly came to an end.
His eighteenth placement was not too far back. Nevertheless, there were still more than a dozen people in front of him who wanted to show their works, and that gave Academician Xu time to prepare.
After all, the equipment display segment was the best place to show their equipmentâs effects. The audience would not be able to see or feel how the equipment worked unless they directly displayed its advantages. Only then could others determine its quality.
The young man who had previously used the sword had carried out a perfect demonstration of his equipment, leaving a deep impression in the hearts of many.
Not long after, the next blacksmith went on stage.
Every blacksmith had three minutes to display their skills during the exhibition, so when the third blacksmith appeared, he began to introduce himself right away.
In just half a minute, he had given his name and the organization he was in.
What attracted everyoneâs attention was the double-edged ax in his hand.
The two diamonds embedded in the long-handled ax were particularly eye-catching, and the overall shape of the weapon was smooth. The overhead light was reflected in the metal.
The ax was 140 centimeters in length, and the blade was about 30 centimeters in length. Circles of green vines were wrapped around the handle, giving it a mysterious feeling.
âItâs another weaponâŠâ
Lone Wolf, who was sitting in his seat, frowned slightly. They had seen display of weapons three times in a row. Even if some were more outstanding than others, people would still get tired of looking at them.
âThatâs normal. Itâs difficult to forge weapons. A good weapon can often show the blacksmithâs powerful skills. Equipment rarely achieves such an effect.â
Bald Eagle shrugged, indicating that he was already used to it.
A smile appeared at the corner of Wu Moâs mouth. He felt that the third blacksmithâs weapon was rather interesting. It was also of Epic grade, but he felt that the double-edged ax was better than the sword from before.
With anticipation in his heart, Wu Mo immediately said in his mind, âAppraise the attributes of the double-edged ax!â
[Equipment appraisal successful. A hundred points have been consumed. Remaining points: 277,249. The attributes of the appraised equipment is as follows:
[Equipment Type: Ax
[Equipment Name: Storm Ax.
[Equipment Grade: Epic
[System Score: 67
[Equipment Effect: 1. Gale (Swing speed increased by 60%)
[2. Sandstorm (Activates energy and releases a sandstorm area of 10 cubic meters, blinding all enemies within the area. Lasts for three minutes. Cooldown: Five hours.)
[3. Epic Power (Deals 15% speed reduction to a target and converts 3% of the damage dealt to spiritual force. The above effects stack by one with each hit. Can stack up to three times)
[Magic Array Effect: Tier 2 Tree Spirit Array (Healing speed increased by 300% for 60 seconds. Cooldown: 10 minutes)
[Equipment Evaluation: This is a double-edged ax with solid effects. It requires a lot of strength to swing it, but if you are proficient with axes, you can unleash its maximum effect. The more you fight, the braver you become in a long battle.]
The panel that was floating in the air gradually faded.
Wu Mo was surprised after learning about all the effects of the double-edged ax.
This ax had reached the standards for mass production. If it could be mass produced and given to cultivators skilled in ax techniques, it would definitely increase their strength by a lot.
It could even allow the cultivators to unleash double their battle power, especially in a long battle.
With the continuous healing and three layers of speed reduction, it would be extremely difficult for the enemy to escape.
If such an effect could be applied to more common weapons like sabers and swords, it should be able to display a greater value.
However, at the same time, Wu Mo began to worry about the young man on the exhibition stage. How was he going to show the effect of this weapon in front of everyone?
After all, it was difficult to distinguish the effects of wound recovery, speed reduction, and spirit energy recovery with the naked eye.
As time passed, everything went as Wu Mo had expected. The blacksmith only demonstrated the effect of the fast swing. Other useful effects could not be demonstrated in this way.
âThe weapon isnât anything special. Itâs just a big ax thatâs more agile.â
âIt seems that this blacksmith doesnât have any real skills. The three master blacksmiths definitely wonât give him a high evaluation.â
A few people not far away immediately began discussing, but Wu Moâs lips curled into a smile.
Those cultivators naturally did not have the whole picture, so it was normal for them to make such simple arguments.
However, he believed that Elder Song and the other two seven-star cultivators would definitely be able to easily see the Storm Axâs advantage.
In a few breaths, the young blacksmith had finished his demonstration. He stood straight on the spot and raised his head to look in three mastersâ direction.
âYouâre quite talented, and your thoughts, as well as ideas, are also unique. However, the name double-edged ax doesnât sound good. Why donât we call it the Storm Ax?â
Chen Yuansong, who was sitting in his seat, touched his beard and said thoughtfully.
âThank you for the name, master!â
The young blacksmith was quite surprised, and he quickly bowed to thank him.
