Chapter 169 Battle Royale
Chapter 169 Battle Royale
The second simulation of the skilled blacksmith took place almost a month after Li Shuwen's last simulation ended.
For the past month, Qiaoduanjiang has been under system trusteeship.
The technology for forging warhammers has not improved, but based on Li Shuwen's combat and forging standards a month ago...
The skill of the blacksmith has seen a significant increase in strength.
According to Li Shuwen's estimate, it will only take a month at most.
He will then be able to successfully evolve into a Great Blacksmith.
It's possible that because the system is hosting the character, the Skilled Blacksmith character won't have his card torn up.
In just one month, the Corviknight crashed four times.
It's all because of the aluminum-steel bridge!
Li Shuwen, the skilled blacksmith, was fortunate enough to escape all of this.
All the skilled blacksmiths who set off with Li Shuwen, piloting Steel Ravens to hunt for food, have become martyrs.
Only the master blacksmith remained alive.
The Great Forger was powerful, so the Aluminum Steel Bridge Dragon did not target her as its first attack.
Moreover, the master blacksmith was quick-witted.
Seeing that Li Shuwen had thrown the warhammer last time and missed the head of the aluminum-steel bridge dragon.
So she specially prepared a second warhammer, specifically for use when encountering the Alumina Bridge Dragon, to throw the warhammer at its head.
The foraging team is now led by a new master blacksmith and pilots a new Steelraven.
Li Shuwen planned to try out Uncle Tsukasa's casting techniques.
He suddenly discovered that there were three imposing and valiant Maw children in the mine, though the Maw children looked somewhat timid.
It's clearly a disservice to their heroic and extraordinary appearance.
The phrase "heroic and extraordinary" implies that all of these Mouthballs are male!
Li Shuwen immediately went to find the master blacksmith, and sure enough, she was practicing her hammer-wielding skills at the same old place.
"Great Blacksmith, what's with all these big-mouthed kids in the mine?"
The master blacksmith continued to swing his warhammer while answering Li Shuwen's questions.
"Whenever the number of small blacksmiths and skillful blacksmiths drops significantly, the king will go underground to find the Mawk children."
"With these Mawile minions, let them roam the territory for a while, and a lot of Little Blacksmith Elf Eggs will appear in the mines."
"We hunt from the sky with the Corviknights, and although we grow very quickly, we also die at a faster rate than before."
"So the king captured these three big-mouthed babies."
Li Shuwen nodded in sudden realization; no wonder the big-mouthed kid looked somewhat timid.
She turned out to be the bandit's wife who had been captured and taken to the mountain by the Great Blacksmith King.
The Great Blacksmith King was not only delicate, but also possessed great strength and skill.
That little brat is no match for him.
Indeed, Li Shuwen saw far fewer blacksmiths along the way.
"Besides the air force, the little blacksmith must have been attacked quite a few times while foraging for food nearby, right?"
The master blacksmith nodded. "Because we prefer to attack the aluminum-steel dragon from the air, and after the aluminum-steel dragon learned of this, it preferred to attack the junior blacksmith from near the mine."
These bullies are all cowards!
"Recently, the Alumina Steel Bridge Dragon has become increasingly active, and countless Alumina Steel Dragon eggs have been laid throughout the forest."
"I heard from the chief that the annual battle royale seems to be starting again."
Battle Royale?
This is indeed an island, but it is very large.
Moreover, there are abundant underground spaces to explore beneath the sea surface.
Li Shuwen could even conclude that there were magma veins within this island.
It's less of an island and more of a massive volcano, the part of which protrudes above the sea.
"At that time, all the Pokémon on the island will be forced together by a strange fog to fight each other."
"That strange mist will drive Pokémon into a frenzy, causing them to attack nearby Pokémon indiscriminately, including their own kind."
Li Shuwen frowned. "Then what are the conditions for the fog to dissipate?"
The master blacksmith shook his head. "I don't know. The fog can cause people to lose their minds, but it will dissipate when Pokémon fight each other to a certain extent."
"Even the time it takes for the fog to dissipate can be reduced if the battle between Pokémon is intense enough, making the newly appearing fog less powerful."
"By hunting other races, one can retain the sanity to refrain from hunting one's own kind when moving through the fog."
Li Shuwen immediately understood; this was yet another place like the Endless Battlefield, a place similar to Bug-type and Flying-type Pokémon.
Li Shuwen couldn't understand who had created this place.
What is the purpose?
"Master blacksmith, in order to successfully survive this battle royale, we must become as strong as possible!"
Li Shuwen nodded.
The continuation of the Great Blacksmith family is not a concern, as the Great Blacksmith King exists.
As one of the top Pokémon on this island.
The master blacksmith will surely survive.
Li Shuwen and his fellow skilled blacksmiths were either the children of master blacksmiths or the children of master blacksmiths' children.
The great blacksmith probably created them, partly to avoid loneliness.
On the other hand, it should also be considered in case she unfortunately dies in battle.
The clan of master blacksmiths will not be wiped out.
However, the appearance of the Great Blacksmith and Li Shuwen made the Great Blacksmith King see the possibility that the Great Blacksmith clan could exist stably.
"Great Blacksmith, are there any races that were completely wiped out but then reappeared after the Battle Royale?"
The master blacksmith nodded. "The king said that even if an entire race is wiped out, that race will not be the same as before."
"For example, if our Great Blacksmith clan were to die in battle, and some of us were to miraculously survive, then the Great King could be transformed into an elf egg and reappear."
"I heard that the steel giant on the first basement level was killed once, but a few small monsters survived."
"So he was reborn and rapidly grew stronger by absorbing smaller monsters."
Li Shuwen smiled and said, "So the reason why the Aluminum Steel Bridge Dragon hunts so frantically is to breed more Aluminum Steel Dragons."
I'm using it to buy resurrection coins!
and many more!
"Great Blacksmith, is the reason why the Aluminum Steel Bridge Dragon keeps targeting us because we keep killing it?"
"Do you want Aluminum Steel Bridge Dragon to think that we want to completely kill it in this battle royale?"
The master blacksmith paused for a moment, then continued to think according to Li Shuwen's ideas.
That seems to be true!
What was originally a simple hunting behavior suddenly took on a deeper meaning.
Li Shuwen was a little curious: what if he evolved into a Great Blacksmith and then cultivated his strength to the level of a Great Blacksmith King?
If the Great Blacksmith dies in battle, can he be resurrected using the battle royale mechanic?
If possible, wouldn't he be able to quickly achieve an S-level rating through this mechanism?
If he were to simulate the Little Blacksmith again, Li Shuwen was confident he could achieve an S-rank.
Li Shuwen then asked, "Great Blacksmith, is it that only one Pokémon of a given species can benefit from this revival effect, or can all Great Blacksmiths whose strength reaches the level of a Grandmaster be affected?"
The master blacksmith paused for a moment, "I really don't know. Let's go ask the king together."
The two found the Great Blacksmith King and listened to their questions.
The Great Blacksmith King nodded. "That's fine, but such a race would face attacks from everyone. Once upon a time, there were three incredibly powerful steel giants on this island."
"Now there's only one left, and that's why."
