Volume 4: National Craftsmanship Chapter 3 [Craftsman Soul Collection]
Shen Jin drove the three away and came to a blank area behind the villa. He used round stones to circle a small plot of 500 square meters and put up a sign at the entrance, "Craftsman Soul Research Center".
Regarding the construction and use of the smelting furnace, Shen Jin was not sure what the difference was between reality and the previous games. He wanted to do some research on his own first, and then let Shang Qian and the others come to see the results.
Regarding the [Craftsman Soul Smelting Furnace] facility, it is actually a larger combination. When Shen Jin was playing the "Minecraft" game before, he would often make a very large [Craftsman Soul Smelting Furnace] and fill it with solutions of various materials to satisfy his infinite desire to stockpile rats. To build a qualified Craftsman Soul Smelting Furnace, one material is needed: [Charred Stone]. Only various block materials made with it can form a smelting furnace. [Charred Stone] is burned from [cement]. The synthesis formula is: [Sand] × 1 + [Clay] × 1 + [Gravel] × 1 = [Cement] × 2
2 pieces of [cement] put into the [furnace] can produce 2 pieces of [charred bricks]. Of course, in order to save [coal], Shen Jin has dismantled all the [furnaces] in the base. Now they use [electric furnaces] with higher efficiency and faster firing speed. With wind turbines, free clean electricity has obviously replaced thermal power generation.
"Let's get some [Charred Bricks] first and build a basic smelting furnace!"
Whether in Q City or D City, Shen Jin has always been mining at the seaside, and the most abundant things at the seaside are [sand] and [clay]. In daily use, [sand] is still useful and can be used to make [glass], while [clay] can only be used to make [red bricks]. Shen Jin used some of it when he rebuilt the villa, but basically did not use it at other times. He has accumulated dozens of boxes of [clay] and [sand] in his warehouse. [Gravel] is also very common underground. Shen Jin also collected more than 10 boxes when he dug the underground passage and the [mining machine] dug indiscriminately. , he took out 4 sets of each and put them on the [workbench], combining them into 8 sets of [cement]. Shen Jin returned to the villa's workshop, took out 8 [electric furnaces] and a large number of [insulated copper wires], as well as some other basic equipment, and took them to the [Craftsman Soul Research Center] in the backyard. He first took some effort to connect the electricity from the underground circuit and connected it to the 8 [electric furnaces]. Then, he put the 8 sets of [cement] in, and the high-power [electric furnace] began to whirr, and the [cement] models inside were burned and gradually shrank into black bricks.
Shen Jin took a look at the [cement] that still needed to be burned for a while, and decided to harden the ground of the [Craftsman Soul Research Center] first. He took out an [iron storage box] with "pebble" on it and placed it on the edge. He took out several groups of [pebbles] from it, combined them into a large number of [pebble steps], and began to lay them along the edge of the enclosure. He hardened the ground of this small area of 500 square meters, making it neat and tidy. His obsessive-compulsive disorder said... he felt comfortable.
Next, Shen Jin took out an iron storage box with the word "wood" on it and placed it next to the cobblestone storage box. He then took out a set of logs and began to make the six operating tables of the craftsman soul, namely: synthesis station, mold processing table, component processing table, tool assembly table, mold box, and component box.
Shen Jin obtained the expansion module of the Artisan Soul: [Artisan Soul Armor], which added an additional operating table:
【Armor Assembly Station】
"Once these seven operating tables are completed, my weapons, armor, and tools will be fully upgraded!"
Shen Jin has always been reluctant to use [World Coins] to enchant, except for the last time when the zombie tide attacked City D, when he was not sure of winning, he spent a lot of [World Coins] to enchant his full body diamond armor, [Diamond Sword] and Zhu Dan's Spider-Man tights. At other times, he was simply reluctant to spend so many [World Coins]. You know, one high-level enchantment costs 10 [World Coins], and Shen Jin can only get 5 by completing daily tasks. One high-level enchantment, two days of work is wasted!
As the equipment is used, its durability decreases, and it will eventually break completely, and its enchanted properties will also disappear along with the equipment...
In this way... the cost-effectiveness of enchantment is extremely low!
But it is different with the craftsman's soul. Various equipment, weapons, and tools will not explode because the durability drops to 0. Instead, they can be repaired using the main materials and restored to their original appearance. This allows Shen Jin to strengthen them with confidence and create a magic weapon that can be used as a family heirloom for a lifetime!
"But... the Artisan Soul is such a rip-off. The enhanced attributes actually need to wait until the next stage to be unlocked!"
After Shen Jin purchased the [Craftsman Soul Module] in the [Module Store], he found that only the [Primary Craftsman Soul] was currently enabled. If he wanted to obtain more Craftsman Soul gameplay, he needed to unlock the [Intermediate Craftsman Soul], which cost 500 [World Coins].
“What a bummer!”
Shen Jin's current [Industrial Module] has been upgraded several times, and now it only needs 1,000 [World Coins] to upgrade to [Intermediate Industry II]. The first upgrade of the Craftsman Soul requires 500 [World Coins]. It's too difficult to please!
"Fortunately, I didn't choose this module at the beginning, otherwise it would be hellish difficulty..."
In order to fully understand the contents of the current [Basic Craftsman's Soul], Shen Jin took a [book] titled "Programmers from Beginner to Graveyard" and made a [blank mold]. The two were combined into: [Craftsman's Soul Collection]!
A yellow book (a book with a yellow cover) appeared in Shen Jin's hand. "Let's flip through the contents that have been unlocked so far!"
Shen Jin looked at the [Craftsman Soul Book], which was divided into:
1. Basic introduction.
2. Tools and weapons.
3. Materials.
4. Bow material.
5. Strengthen (Lock)
6. Smelting.
There are six major sections in total. Shen Jin looked through them carefully and compared them with his previous gaming experience. He knew which functions were currently unlocked and which were not. "As for tools and weapons... currently half of them are unlocked, and they are all relatively basic. Some heavy weapons and large-scale tools are not unlocked!"
He counted carefully and found that the tools currently unlocked were: [Pickaxe], [Shovel], [Hand Axe], [Mattock], [Gardening Scythe]
Unlocked weapons include: [Big Sword], [Long Sword], [Western Sword], [Short Bow] (with matching arrows), [Frying Pan], [Battle Sign]
Among them, the attack power of [Hand Axe] and [Pickaxe] is also good, and can be made into an alternative weapon to use. [Frying Pan] is a special auxiliary weapon, which can be used to hold up the pot when retreating to cook, and to attack and injure the enemy.
[Battle Badge] is an advanced defensive weapon. Due to its large area, it can be used for defense and blocking. People with great strength can wield it to knock away a large number of enemies.
"There's no lock on the materials, but...where can I get the monster drops, magic legends, and hell products in the game?"
