239: Chapter 199: The Value of Life (6000 words)_3 239: Chapter 199: The Value of Life (6000 words)_3 The blacksmith hands you the map of where he initially buried the iron essence at the mountain top, expressing that if you have the ability to retrieve the iron essence from the top of the mountain, he will give it to you and help you fix the synthesis furnace.

You have obtained the ‘Simple Map of the Misty Mountain Top’.

Mu You clicked and looked at it.

It was indeed a ‘simple’ map.

The map only outlined a few mountain peaks’ relative positions with a few strokes, and marked an X at a certain location of one of the peaks.

“Unable to keep warm, huh…”

Mu You frowned.

Unable to keep warm ans that he can’t resist the cold with ordinary external objects.

He must rely on his body to withstand these sub-zero temperatures close to a hundred degrees.

This was indeed a bit troubleso.

The only solution Mu You could think of for now seed to be the magic ‘Frost Resistance Potion’.

However, this potion only lasts for five minutes and has a cooldown period of a day.

In such a vast snowy mountain top, five minutes was obviously not enough ti to do anything.

After thinking for a mont, Mu You shook his head.

There was no hurry for this.

Even the damaged furnace could still be used.

At least, it could normally synthesize anything of Excellent Grade or below.

As for anything higher, he didn’t have that much lower-grade equipnt to use right now.

Leaving the blacksmith’s shop, Mu You teleported to the Elf Forest.

With the Chocobo, travelling had beco much more convenient.

It took him about ten minutes to find the training hall in the forest.

After entering, he chose a ‘Elven Combat Art’ training.

This is a pure close combat skill training without any added attributes or talents.

Mu You doesn’t know how effective it is now, but among the remaining training options that could be exchanged for, this seed to be the most useful one.

‘Elven Combat Art’ training in progress, estimated to be completed in 8 hours…

An eight-hour training, the ga could not be operated during the process.

Mu You went out to complete a few patrol missions, then quickly took a nap.

Early the next morning, Lu Yao called early to wake Mu You up.

As he ca downstairs and checked, there was indeed a sneaky little girl’s figure loitering at the door.

Mu You opened the door and let her in.

Lu Yao took out a cardboard box from her backpack, and once opened, it was cramd full of various types of equipnt.

Mu You also handed her the Mud Boots.

After both parties had checked everything, the transaction was complete.

“Are you sure you want them all?

You can back out now if you regret…” Lu Yao still had so doubts as she looked at Mu You.

“What is there to regret?

Also, I’ll take all the Common Grade and Black Iron Grade equipnt in your shop from now on.” Mu You said.

“Goodness, you want more?”

Lu Yao looked at Mu You in surprise, hesitated for a mont, and then asked, “Do you…

have so way of crafting equipnt?”

Mu You thought for a mont and then nodded: “I know a blacksmith in the ga, who can combine lower-grade equipnt into a higher grade, but only up to the Excellent Grade.”

Since this was a business transaction he planned to keep doing in the future, he gave her a reasonable excuse rather than letting people guess at his motives.

“I knew it!”

Lu Yao’s eyes lit up: “That’s great!

Rember to find when you want to sell any Excellent Grade equipnt you craft!”

“Sure.”

…

Watching Lu Yao leave, Mu You took the box back to his room and opened the bag space to take out the synthesis furnace and then proceeded to experint on the spot.

In the description of the synthesis furnace, the term ‘recipe’ was ntioned, aning that the actual synthesis combination might not only be those two kinds.

Mu You randomly picked six pieces of Black Iron grade equipnt from the box, tossed them into the furnace one by one, filling up all six slots.

After closing the lid, the furnace trembled slightly and the surface gradually beca hot, signalling the start of the synthesis.

‘Synthesis Furnace: Synthesizing, estimated to finish in 24 hours.

Disrupting the synthesis process will lead to unknown consequences.’

“Unknown consequences…”

Looking at the hint from the Omniscient Crystal, Mu You thought for a mont, secured his pocket watch, and opened the furnace lid.

The instant the lid was lifted, a large quantity of hot air erupted out, accompanied by a muffled noise.

The equipnt inside the furnace, which was still in the shape formation phase, turned into a piece of charred coal amongst the hazy fog.

However, before it turned charred, Mu You saw that it was a bow, and its design looked quite familiar.

“So, what will be refined is determined the mont the equipnt is put in…”

Thinking this, Mu You imdiately reversed ti, back to before the synthesis began.

Looking again at the furnace, sure enough, at this mont, there was a Black Iron grade bow in the first slot of the furnace, which looked almost identical to the equipnt shape from the previous fusion.

This discovery stirred sothing in Mu You’s mind: Could it be that the product of the synthesis wasn’t totally random and that there was a certain pattern to it?

With this thought in mind, he imdiately swapped a batch of equipnt inside and repeated the sa experint.

The result was that this ti, after lifting the lid, a shield-shaped phantom was being ford inside the furnace.

However, none of the six pieces of equipnt he had just put inside were shields?

“Could it just be a coincidence?”

Mu You frowned, reversed ti, and continued to experint.

What followed was a continuous cycle of experinting and reversing ti.

After dozens of attempts, trying out all possible combinations of the various equipnt he had on hand, Mu You finally figured out the pattern: as long as among the six pieces of equipnt put inside, three of them were of the sa type, like three weapons, the final synthesized product would definitely be a weapon.

Additionally, the style and shape of the weapon obtained from the synthesis would be the sa as the weapon in the first slot.
