Chapter 237: The Magic Forge Master’s Mission, the Most Shocking Name

Translator: Udong Editor: EbonyFrost, Udong

The small sleeve arrow had a lot of Magic Array runes carved on it to form an advanced magic weapon with great killing power. However, compared with the popular magic weapons, this type of weapon was only for one-time use and would explode after being used so that no one could take it away for re-utilization.

Magic Forge Master! Qian Jin turned to Blake who had woken up and was smoking outside the thatched house. This old man was not only a Blacksmith but a Magic Forge Master who had integrated forging, runes, and other professions!

Qian Jin shifted his attention to the book "Magic Conductors" in his hand again. If he could forge some of these items and take them with him, he could not only enhance the defending power of mages like Gloria and Rosella but also warriors like him who sometimes faced stronger warriors.

Eh? Qian Jin turned to the last page of the book and found that it was not a finished book. Usually, the second volume of this book should be placed behind the first book on the shelf, but today, it wasn’t there.

Just then Qian Jin was eager to know how strong the most powerful magic conductor was, the book came to an end all of a sudden. Qian Jin scratched his head as he walked out of the thatched house. He stood in front of Blake, curled his lips and said, "Uncle, the book ’Magic Conductors’ seems like it is not completed."

Blake lifted his wrinkly fingers, wiped away the gum in his eyes, made a hard blink and said lazily, "Oh, you mean this. Several years ago when I was touring around on the mountain, I dropped some of these books and haven’t collected them back yet."

Dropped them? Qian Jin scratched his head. "Uncle, do you still remember where you dropped them?"

Blake pointed to the shelf with his pipe, "There is a map under the bookshelf. When I was looking for that particular metal, I sketched out this map. The locations of the books are marked out."

"Thank you, Uncle Blake."Qian Jin bowed and hurriedly rushed to the thatched house to take out the map under the shelf. The flaming excitement that flashed through his eyes died down the minute he saw the map as if he had run into a violent thunderstorm.

The map was three meters long and three meters wide when unfolded fully. As a part of the West Mountain map, it marked dozens of locations where the books were at.

Though Qian Jin wasn’t familiar with each and every one of the locations, he could recognize seven or eight of them, and he was sure that these places were inhabited by ferocious Demon Beasts! They were home to Armor Ambush Monster, Blue Demon Bat, Savage Fly, and even the advanced Demon Beast Golden Griffin.

The weakest among of these Demon Beasts were the mid-tier Level 6 Demon Beasts, while Golden Griffin were the superior species among the advanced Demon Beasts. And all these beasts had a strong sense of territory, and they were very aggressive.

Searching for the lost books in these places was similar to asking for his death.

Blake was standing in front of the thatched house with his pipe held in his hand. He lifted his feet and knocked his pipe with the bottom of his shoe, dropping the tobacco ash onto the ground. Then he leaned by the door and looked at Qian Jin, "Since you’ve mentioned that, I feel like getting those lost books back."

"Get them back? That’s great!" Qian Jin felt ecstatic. Though Blake was said to be a Blacksmith, he possessed outstanding fighting power. Under his hammer, even advanced demon beasts were...

"You also think it is a good idea?" Blake’s smile out of satisfaction. Suddenly Qian Jin felt that it was not his first time to see Blake smile like this. And every time he saw this look...

"I’m old, and not comfortable with going outside." Blake refilled his pipe, lit it up and said leisurely, "So you shall go to these places and get the lost books back."

Sure enough! Qian Jin’s rising excitement was beaten down as Blake had given the mission of going out on him.

The inanimate system was prompted

"Player Qian Jin, you have activated the Magic Forge Master’s mission. Do you want to accept it? Please make a choice."

Magic Forge Master’s mission? What was that? Qian Jin sighed, as he knew that much of his achievement today was indebted to Blake. Now that Blake had given him a task, he was obliged to accomplish it no matter what it was. However, his chances of defeating the demon beasts were really narrow. action

Go for it! Qian Jin accepted the mission, and the system prompt came again: Player Qian Jin has taken the mission of the Magic Forge Master.

Opening the Status Screen, Qian Jin saw that the information which read that: by completing the Magic Forge Master’s mission, receive the reward of becoming a Magic Forge Master!

To become a Magic Forge Master! Qian Jin felt that he was full of motivation at that moment. Even though he didn’t know when he would accomplish the mission, he felt hopeful as he had the potential to become a Magic Forge Master as long as he could complete it!

There probably wasn’t even a Magic Forge Master in the pure sense throughout Zence Empire.

The moment Qian Jin closed the Status Screen, he noticed that in the blacksmith’s column, it displayed "Level 2 Forge Grandmaster"!

Level 2 Forge Grandmaster? Qian Jin felt blank for a moment and then understood this. After becoming a Level 1 Forging Grandmaster in the Endless World, he wasn’t given much time to come here for further practice. Yet the advancement of forging status required immense practice. However, his forging proficiency had evolved from level 1 to level 2. This only meant that...

The experience he gained in forging weapons in the outside world could be brought into the Endless World. It was his successful making of a soul weapon that provided him with enormous experience, by which his forging level had increased.

"One thing. Don’t go to Enlak’s Warrior Energy house these couple of days." Blake turned away and said casually, "Just practice consolidating what you have learned so far. After any fighting technique is mastered, there would be a huge change as the practitioners could draw more lessons from it."

Qian Jin nodded his head obediently. Every time his fighting technique improved, he could feel the rising of his destructive power, but never had he drawn any insights from the process. If Blake hadn’t mentioned it today, he would go to the Enlak’s Warrior Energy House for a challenge to see whether he could learn some better fighting techniques.

Sixteen hours elapsed just in the blink of an eye. Qian Jin exited from the Endless World, feeling regretful for not having become a Pharmacy Grandmaster.

Although he hadn’t become a Pharmacy Grandmaster, he had the potential of becoming a Magic Forge Master and had gained more experience in forging warrior weapons. Thinking of this, Qian Jin stretched himself with a contented smile, threw his mage hat into the Warrior Dimension and walked out the room. The sun had just risen up from the horizon, and Qian Jin took a deep breath.

Punitive Expedition Academy, an advanced warrior academy in Yulee.

Qian Jin had heard about this prestigious school tens of thousands of times in Oakland.

And now, when he was standing in front of the gate of this school holding the recommendation letter issued by Torrent Battle Fort, he felt obscurely excited and elated.

Entering the gate, Qian Jin and his fellows saw a huge welcoming wall, on which there hung a painting, instead of the remarks of the founding deans of the school like ordinary novice warrior academies might do.

It was a huge scroll of painting about the bloody life-or-death war, in which the two sides were Human soldiers of the Zence Empire and the Demon warriors of Lucifer Empire.

Gazing at the painting in front of his eyes, Qian Jin seemed to have heard the crashing of the sabers, the growling of magic, and the calling for life on the remote human-demon battlefront

"Oh! It’s so magical!" Qian Jin waked from his imagination and kept shaking his head in appreciation. "From this piece of painting I seemed to have heard the screams of the battlefront and smelled the bloody scent as if I was there."

Fanta Kunge nodded his head softly. "I hear that the founder of Punitive Expedition Academy invited the greatest artist at that time to paint such a fresco to have the newly enrolled warrior apprentices understand the cruelty of the human-demon battlefront and for why they have come to this advanced warrior academy."

Qian Jin nodded his head, knowing that in order to become a real warrior, one had to experience the war themselves. For those warrior apprentices with fine talent who hadn’t undergone any battles, this piece of panting was their first teacher upon their entrance into this advanced warrior academy after graduating from the novice warrior and mage academy.

"We...seem to be late..." Gabriella was still in her old-style wide black mage robe, with a black mage hat on her head. She said bashfully in a low voice, "shall we go to the teacher’s for registry..."

Qian Jin smiled, "Right, we shall go for registration first."

"Wait...you people, wait."

Two young warriors in the warrior suit walked out of the reception room at the entrance to the academy. They sprinted and stopped in front of the five peopleL "Here is Punitive Expedition Academy. Where are your identification cards?"

Identification card? Qian Jin smiled. They hadn’t undergone the registration, on what earth could they be given an identification card?

"I’m sorry." Gabriella bowed at a 90-degree angle. Her mage hat flickered a light, and she took out her letter of admission from her loose robe and said in a low voice, "We are the newly enrolled students here; we was delayed by some matters until today."

"Delayed?" The two gatekeeping warriors exchanged a look and sneered, "Here is Punitive Expedition Academy. Anyone who comes late will be deemed to have lost the qualification, you..."

Taking over the admission letter handed by Gabriella and having a glance at the name written on, one of the two warriors’ lofty look turned sullen all of a sudden.

The other warrior was puzzled by his peer’s reaction. "What was wrong with him? Why didn’t he give these late students a lesson and let them know the Punitive Expedition Academy’s...Gabriella!"

Gabriella! The two warriors opened their eyes wide and gazed at the name on the shining admission letter which read "Gabriella, Mage Branch."

Gabriella! The two warriors’ necks seemed to have been implanted an iron stick as they turned back mechanically and exchanged a look full of surprise. Gabriella! It was heared that the principal was too excited to fall asleep for three days after hearing that Gabriella was coming to Punitive Expedition Academy.
