Volume 4: National Craftsmanship Chapter 5: Build [Craftsman Soul Smelting Furnace]
"This [Flint·Western Sword] is a weapon that can be mass-produced. Because it does not contain any metal materials and does not require a casting process, it is very convenient for me to operate. I can ship it out in groups and sell it to the pseudo-transcendents who are out..."
Shen Jin is already preparing to grab the first batch of people who will become rich in Home No. 1: the pseudo-supernatural ones.
Most of them are still using the [Stone Swords] distributed for free by Shen Jin, which is so low!
Shen Jin felt that anyone with a little bit of assets would definitely be willing to spend a certain amount of money to buy himself such a "magic weapon". "But...how can we unify the price? Everyone has different assets. One has food, another has electrical appliances, and some sell movies..."
Shen Jin pondered for a moment and scratched his head fiercely: "Forget it, let Shang Qian think about it in the future!"
Shen Jin glanced at the eight [electric furnaces] that were still burning [charred bricks]. It would take a while for them to burn out. "This weapon is low-end. It's okay for others to use it, but it's a bit useless for me. I have to get myself a better one..."
Shen Jin flipped through the [Craftsman's Soul Collection] again. The content of [Enhancement] has not been unlocked yet. It needs to be upgraded to [Intermediate Craftsman's Soul] before it can be displayed. Then Shen Jin set his sights on [Bow Materials]. "My [Diamond Sword] is enchanted with very strong attributes, and I have hardly ever used it in close combat... I don't need to change it for now. It's more appropriate to make a useful long-range weapon. It's yours, [Short Bow]!"
Shen Jin looked at the structure of the [shortbow]: [bow arm] + [bow arm] + [bow string], "Uh... it seems to be stuck!"
If the [bow arm] uses a material with high toughness and rigidity, it needs to be cast in metal. Shen Jin has to build the [Craftsman Soul Smelting Furnace] before he can make it. "Let's build a small one first!"
Shen Jin took out all the [charred bricks] that had been temporarily burned in the 8 [electric furnaces] , a total of 240 bricks, and synthesized them according to the synthesis formula:
[Charred Furnace Controller], [Charred Storage Tanks] × 2, [Smelting Furnace Drain Port] × 3, [Charred Stone Bricks] × 42, and then use these materials to build a [Craftsman Soul Smelting Furnace] with an internal space of 3×3×3, a total of 27 cubic meters. The [Charred Furnace Controller] and [Charred Storage Tanks] are placed on the first layer to control the dynamics inside the smelting furnace. Three [Smelting Furnace Drain Ports] are placed on one side to drain the molten metal inside for casting components. Then make [Pouring Ports] × 3, [Casting Tables] × 2, and [Pouring Basin] × 1, connect the three [Pouring Ports] to the drain port, and then place two [Casting Tables] and a [Pouring Basin] underneath, and a small [Craftsman Soul Smelting Furnace] is ready!
Now you can put materials in for smelting. "Hiss~! The fuel for the [Craftsman Soul Smelting Furnace] in the game is magma. Where the hell can I get magma for you... Can you use something else?"
The two [charred storage tanks] were used to store fuel. Shen Jin took out some diesel that he had stolen from the gas station from the warehouse and poured 10 liters into them. “Hoohoo!”
The [Craftsman Soul Smelting Furnace] started to burn inside, with flames everywhere. "Not bad, not bad. Fortunately, the furnace is not picky about fuel!"
Shen Jin thought this was very reasonable. Since it relied on liquid fuel for combustion, gasoline, kerosene, diesel, etc. would definitely be very suitable. It might even burn more vigorously than magma...
Shen Jin put the materials he wanted to make a [Shortbow] into the [Scorched Furnace Controller], and the fire inside became more intense. Shen Jin could even hear the sound of metal melting inside. "This furnace must have some kind of enchantment bonus, otherwise... how could it burn so fast? That's steel and cobalt!"
Of course, Shen Jin also added 20 gold ingots to make a specific mold. Gold molds are needed to cast metal parts. The melting speed of gold ingots is obviously much faster than the other two. Shen Jin successively cast the bow arm mold and the arrowhead mold on two casting tables. After the steel and cobalt inside were completely melted into liquid, Shen Jin could start making the short bow. "Use my two strongest materials to make the bow arm to maximize the damage and speed!"
【Material: Cobalt】
【When this material is used for bow arms】
[Bow drawing speed: 1.33]
[Range coefficient: 1.3]
[Additional Damage: 3]
[Additional attribute "Lightweight": Increases the digging/attack speed of tools/weapons]
…
【Material: Steel】
【When this material is used for bow arms】
[Bow drawing speed: 2.5]

After Shen Jin finished casting, he took the three parts to the [Tool Assembly Table] and combined them successfully!
[Steel-Cobalt Shortbow]
[Durability: 660/660]
[Bow drawing speed: 0.95]
[Range coefficient: 1.65]
[Additional Damage: 6]
[Attack Power: 4.53]
【Features: sharp, light】
[Number of enhancements remaining: 3]
…
"Oh, and I also need a set of sharp arrows."
[Arrow] requires [Arrow Shaft] + [Arrow Feather] + [Arrow Head], the arrow head must be sharp, Shen Jin chose the [Steel Arrow] with the highest damage, [Material: Steel]
[When this material is used on the top of a tool/weapon]
[Durability: 540]
[Mining level: Obsidian]
[Mining speed: 7]
[Attack Power: 6]

…
Then select the ammunition and the [Sugar Cane Arrow Shaft] with the highest reinforcement coefficient, [Material: Sugar Cane]
[When this material is used for arrow shafts/crossbow cores]
[Enhancement coefficient: 1.5]
[Extra Ammo: 20]
[Additional attribute "fragile": there is a greater probability of damage when the thrown object collides]
…
Then there is the most accurate [Feather Arrow Feather], [Material: Feather]
[When this material is used for arrow feathers]

…
[Steel Arrow] is released!
[Ammunition: 101/101]

【Accuracy: 100%】
[Number of enhancements remaining: 3]
This is a basket of arrows, a total of 101 arrows, Shen Jin can directly put them into the inventory. Shen Jin took out the [Steel-Cobalt Short Bow]. It looks about the same size as the [Bow] that comes with the original system, but that one has a wooden bow arm, which cannot be compared with this one. A transcendent can break it in a few strokes. This bow has a bow arm made of half steel and half cobalt, and is extremely durable!
Shen Jin tried to pull the bowstring with both hands, "Hiss! Very powerful!"
The [Drawing Speed: 0.95] written on the equipment means that under normal circumstances, it takes 0.95 seconds to draw the bow and shoot. Shen Jin took out an arrow and put it on the [Steel-Cobalt Shortbow], "Swish!"
“Swoosh!”
“Swoosh!”
Shen Jin shot three arrows at the surrounding stone walls, an average of one arrow every 0.5 seconds. "It seems that if the user has strong arms, this speed can be greatly improved!"
He came to the stone wall and found that the [Steel Arrow] had been deeply embedded in the [cobblestone] for a full 30 centimeters!
This level of penetration is something that only high-powered anti-material sniper rifles can achieve!
Shen Jin's current equipment far exceeds the anti-material sniper rifle in short-range shooting, whether in terms of power, shooting speed, or maneuverability!
"The era of cold weapons of the national craftsman spirit... is coming!"
Shen Jin turned and walked into the villa behind him. The preliminary experiment of the [Craftsman Soul Module] was completed. Next... it was time to apply it to zombies!
