Logically speaking, this small village with less than a thousand people should not be much bigger.
Moreover, Haina’s home does not live on the edge of the village, but in the center of the entire village with the best environment.
Aiwass and the others followed Haina, and it didn't feel like they had gone very far. But when they arrived at the door of Haina's house, they looked up and saw that the moon was already high in the night sky.
Unconsciously, it was already late at night
Aiwass and Sherlock looked at each other, and then looked at Lily who also looked surprised. The confusion of timing here was confirmed in my mind.
But at present, they can only confirm that this kind of chaos must exist, but they are unable to analyze the rules in detail. The only thing they can be sure of is that as a local, Haina cannot sense the abnormality at all, but they But outsiders can feel it
After the group of them got closer, they could see the light overflowing from Haina's blacksmith shop. The lights were brightly lit inside, but no conversation could be heard from outside.
"Mom, I'm back."
Haina directly pushed open the closed door of the blacksmith shop. Her voice became somewhat tired, not as excited as when she first came home.
The lights are on outside, but there is no one. There are only some well-made weapons hanging casually on the wall, while large pieces of pliers, kitchen knives, iron hooks, pliers, saws, sickle heads and other tools and the fragments of iron tools in the tools are all messy on the table like harvested wheat. or hang on a shelf.
Some of them were stained with rust, but instead of taking them away, they were just put away with the other tools.
Pieces of pig iron are piled messily in the corner, while cast iron ingots are neatly piled in a pyramid-like shape and placed in another corner on the ground.
Haina led them through the front desk and prepared to go to the back room.
But as soon as he entered the door, Sherlock felt something was wrong.
Why is it so cold in this room
Then he glanced around and his eyes widened in surprise.
Why is your furnace installed indoors?
This made Sherlock stunned for a moment, and he didn't realize why for a long time.
So when passing by the oven and furnace, Sherlock reached out to test the temperature inside.
Icy.
Not only was there no fuel at all, but even the ashes had been specially removed. Sherlock's hand touched it, but he didn't find much ashes.
Sherlock raised his eyebrows and secretly wrote it down.
Nowadays, after all, there are few blacksmiths on the Glass Island. Blast furnaces and steam hammers have replaced the blacksmiths’ work. Not only is the efficiency higher, but the quality of the iron produced is also better and more stable.
The blacksmiths who are still active today are those extraordinary craftsmen who can make extraordinary weapons, and those who make cheap weapons for farmers.Farm tools made by the village blacksmiths.
The rarer the occupation, the more it arouses Sherlock's interest. He has specifically studied this aspect.
It’s just an oven, can the furnace be turned off?
These craftsmen are not blacksmiths in the traditional sense, but extraordinary professional “blacksmiths” who come from the path of devotion. They can call out the fire elves who accompany them, which are extraordinary creatures raised by Yan Tiansi who dedicated his life to the path.
And these fire elves with the intelligence of children can help them perform extraordinary forging, melt some materials that are difficult to melt, or add some occult materials that cannot be integrated into the embryo through conventional forging techniques.
Because even if you become such a "blacksmith", you cannot obtain the corresponding formula. A blacksmith without a formula is a useless person.
So the "blacksmith" and its promoted version of the profession "magicsmith" are usually from a single lineage. The magicsmith who made the elven dagger in Avalon is an elf from the Theocracy. Several generations of disciples are all native Avalonians.
This was also one of the aids sent by the Theocracy when Avalon was established.
However, even if Sherlock doesn’t understand blacksmithing, he understands logic.
He sensed something was wrong logically
Since there is pig iron in this house, it means that the blacksmith here does not use finished cast iron bought from the city. It is pig iron made by oneself from iron ore, which means that this furnace is not for decoration, but for real use.
But if the furnace wants to smelt high-quality iron, it needs a high enough temperature.
This kind of civilian furnace is not the kind of blast furnace in a factory, and these mortal blacksmiths are not extraordinary people. They cannot summon fire elves, so they want to increase the temperature of the furnace to produce iron with acceptable hardness. It takes a long time to warm up and gradually heat up through heat accumulation.
And this requires consuming a lot of fuel. In other words, it consumes a lot of money.
Once the stove goes out, it requires a long period of preheating to heat it up again. This consumes a lot of money and time.
So the forge in the blacksmith shop and the furnace outside are generally not extinguished. So as soon as you enter the door, you can immediately feel the heat.
It is for this reason that the furnace must be placed outside because the temperature of the furnace is too high. Putting it inside the house will not only cause severe discomfort, but also pose a fire hazard.
Seeing this scene, Sherlock immediately had an idea in his mind
Haina’s father is a transcendent person
The only one who can summon the Fire Lord The extraordinary beings of elves don't need this crude method of warming up, right?
But this made Sherlock confused.
Your family is the inheritor of the blacksmith, why did you travel all the way to Avalon to learn it?
Isn’t the magician formula in your family more valuable to inherit?
And
Haina has a path of devotionWhy didn't I see the adaptability?
Or maybe she is not her parents' biological child
Sherlock was filled with doubts.
After Haina entered the back room, the middle-aged man's rude scolding came immediately: "Your mother asked you to pick up the guests, why did you stay out playing until night and didn't come back after dark?" Don’t you know what’s in there?”
Haina flattened her mouth a little aggrievedly and leaned against the wall near the door without saying a word.
She also felt very unhappy, but she couldn't refute it because in terms of the result, she really felt that she had done something wrong. But she felt a little baffled because she really didn't know what she had done to cause this result.
Following Haina, Aiwas also walked in.
This was the first time Aiwass met Haina’s parents
But after only meeting once, Aiwass was immediately surprised.
Aiwass’s words stopped abruptly: “Hello uncle”
So short.
Lily was also stunned for a moment, and Sherlock couldn't help but say "Huh".
Because Haina's father turned out to be a dwarf
He has gray marble-like skin, pure white beard and curly hair. Big nose, big ears, and a pair of small eyes. He was sitting on the beautiful dark red sofa at the moment, and his calves were like a naughty child, but he could still swing around.
This is a very standard dwarf.
This is also the first time Aiwass has seen a dwarf in person.
The only contradiction is that the relationship between elves and dwarves is very bad. Basically, elves will not approach countries dominated by dwarves; and countries dominated by elves will also not see many dwarves.
Avalon is obviously the latter who has benefited too much. The Avalonians are too diligent and even more extreme than the elves themselves.
The elves merely despised and were hostile to the dwarves, but the Avalonians went a step further. They directly expelled all dwarves from the country to express their friendly attitude towards the Theocracy.
Anyway, there weren’t many dwarves in Avalon, so this gesture was totally worthwhile.
Currently, a large number of dwarves gather in the Everfrost Empire in the north of Avalon. Since Eagle Point Village is located in the northwest corner of Avalon, it is indeed possible for dwarves to sneak in.
This also explains why Haina clearly has the heritage of "blacksmith" but still chose the official extraordinary one. the path of the seeker.
Because this old blacksmith who can pass on Haina is fundamentally not a regular blacksmith from the Theocracy, but an unlicensed extraordinary person who is even a stowaway. Some inheritances are illegal, and even the whole person is illegal
