Orin quickly tried to remedy the situation. He wanted to go back to the earlier steps of condensing energy, but his situation was getting worse. In the blink of an eye, the magical weapon, which had condensed a lot of his mental strength, was about to be destroyed!
“Hu ~ ~ ~”
A magical power containing special energy flew over and condensed into the magical weapon in front of him.
Orin: “!”
He almost cursed out loud, but the magical weapon in the furnace, which had almost failed completely, suddenly had the hope of becoming a full-fledged magical weapon!
Orin: “!!!”
Immediately, no matter how strange and surprised he felt, he restrained his mind and focused on weapon refinement.
After half an hour, the furnace in front of him suddenly lit up. A cold curved saber floated out of the furnace. It was a gold-tier magical weapon!
To be honest, if it had not been for that incident just now, he might have laughed out loud, but…
Orin had mixed feelings. He waved his hand and put away the magical weapon. He stood up and bowed to Dick. “I’ve lost.”
Sigh… his skills were inferior.
Dick did not accept the old man’s greeting. He quickly stood up and stopped him. “Master, don’t be like this!”
“I’m just a junior. I still have a lot to learn…”
“What master?” Orin waved his hand. “I’m not a master in front of you! Don’t say you’re a junior!”
His head hurt, and his heart was filled with panic, shock, and confusion… How could he have such a powerful junior!
“I, junior…” Dick was about to say something else.
“No, no! I really can’t accept this!” Orin was at a loss of what to do.
At this moment, his face was filled with respect and fear. The earlier arrogance was all gone, not to mention the arrogance of a level-3 weapon-refining master…
In weapon refinement, one never looked at superficial reputation. What mattered was real ability. Whoever was capable would go up.
Previously, Orin had been admired by so many people because they had held in esteem his ability to refine gold-tier magical weapons. Even the City Lord of the Holy Light City had to treat him with respect. But now…
His words and actions were full of respect and admiration. “You’re the master! With my little tricks, I can at most be your assistant!”
Orin had always been proud of being able to refine gold-tier magical weapons. Now that a platinum-tier magical weapon had appeared in front of him… how could he still be arrogant?
At this moment, Dick Nicholas was like a god in front of him, emitting all kinds of glow.
The young man in front of him, who had been smiling faintly, was not someone he could compare with at all… He could no longer have any thoughts of competing with him. He was old and he had to admit defeat.
Just in terms of weapon refinement technique, the other party had far surpassed him, not to mention the grade of the furnace, weapon refinement skill and the other factors that affected it.
Orin was completely convinced. He had lost his earlier arrogance.
“You’re the senior! Senior’s weapon refinement skills have far surpassed mine. Please let me call you Master.”
Dick smiled. “Master Orin, there’s no need for this…”
The two of them chatted for a while. They had found a solution to the problem that had plagued the Nicholas family previously.
Two hours later, Dick returned home and ran into Ron, who had returned.
“Brother Dick.”
Ron walked to Dick and said with a smile, “Earlier, on the way, I heard that you had refined a platinum-tier magical weapon in the Sacred Spirit Weapon Refinement Pavilion?”
Dick sounded a little glad. “To be able to refine a platinum-tier magical weapon now is more or less due to luck. Anyway… it’s good that I could settle the family matters well.”
When he was refining weapons in the Sacred Spirit Weapon Refinement Pavilion, he did not think too much. He was completely immersed naturally in refining weapons.
If he were to really refine it again now, even under the same conditions, he might not be able to produce another platinum-tier magical weapon…
Even if he had used the Cloud Gold Furnace and the Strange Sacred Flame and did not suppress his magical power level, the outcome would still be uncertain. Such a fortuitous situation was not easy to achieve.
Speaking of which, Orin had probably been stunned by his move, and his attitude was exceptionally respectful.
The verbal bet earlier had been honored. Now, half of the ownership of the Sacred Spirit Weapon Refinement Pavilion had been successfully won by the Nicholas family.
Dick smiled and asked Ron, “Is everything going well on your side?”
“Yes, it is the same, it went very well,” Ron replied with a smile.
He had also been sent out by the family head today to settle the businesses that had not been settled yesterday.
It was a shop that originally belonged to the Byron family. It was mainly in charge of the production and sale of pills.
The situation was similar to that of the Sacred Spirit Weapon Refinement Pavilion. When he had arrived there, those alchemists who had been unwilling to come under the Nicholas family clan were gathered by him to “exchange pointers”. Soon, they no longer spoke arrogantly… The Nicholas family had taken over a pill store specially for Magi.
Their relaxed demeanor had also infected the other clansmen.
The next day, news about the Nicholas family clan spread throughout the Holy Light City again…
Basically, everyone learnt that the Nicholas family had successfully taken over the alchemy business of the Byron family and the weapon refinement business of the Treis family.
What made everyone discuss fervently was not the matter concerning the takeover of the businesses, but a piece of information which had been leaked—the Nicholas family clan actually had an alchemist and a weapon-refiner!
Moreover, they were the most capable younger generation in the family—Ron and Dick!
These two people were already famous. Not only were they of high magical power realm and powerful strength, they were also a level-6 alchemist and a level-4 weapon refining master!
Unlike the magical power realm, alchemy and weapon refinement were divided into nine levels. The levels between them were also different.
To an alchemist, their level was the same as the highest grade of the pills they had made.
The pills were divided into nine grades. Grade 1 and 2 were suitable for ordinary Magi, grade 3 and 4 were suitable for Great Magi, grade 5 and 6 were suitable for Great Archmagi, grade 7 and 8 were suitable for the Divine Magi, and grade 9 were the sacred pills that only a Heavenly Divine Mage could come into contact with!
Before returning to the Holy Light City, Ron’s alchemy skills had not reached level-6…
After obtaining the Sacred Spirit Body… the Flame Sacred Body, his control over the Strange Sacred Flame became even more exquisite. He was able to refine pills with ease, and it did not take long for him to reach the realm of a level-6 alchemist…
To a weapon refiner, their level was the same as the highest level of weapon they had refined.
Magical weapons were also divided into ordinary magical weapons, sacred weapons, and divine weapons.
To be able to refine a silver-tier magical weapon meant that one had entered the threshold of a weapon refiner. The gold, platinum, and diamond-tier magical weapons after that corresponded to a level-2 to level-4 weapon refiner.
After that, the refined magical weapons were no longer called in the same way; they were called sacred weapons. These were also divided into four levels, low, medium, high, and top. They corresponded to a level-5 to level-8 weapon refiner.
At level-9, a weapon refiner could refine a divine weapon!
The magical weapons refined by the weapon refiners of the nine levels were all different.
Generally speaking, below the Divine Mage, even a top Great Archmage would rarely have a diamond-tier magical weapon on him. As for a sacred weapon, only a Divine Mage could use it!
Currently, the Nicholas family clan had Ron, a level-6 alchemist, and Dick, a level-4 weapon refiner.
In their family, they are able to satisfy the needs of the clansmen below the Divine Mage realm for magical weapons and magical pills!!
