Caspian replied, “If you’re clear about this other matter, do explain it in detail. It’s about weapon refinement.”
“Weapon refinement?” Maisie blinked at Caspian, puzzled, “Why do you want to know more about weapon refinement?”
Hence, Caspian explained to Maisie that favonovel.com wanted to refine the Blazing Spear favonovel.com just received. Nonetheless, Caspian naturally did not tell favonovel.com about the Tower of Life’s secret. As for why favonovel.com mastered the superficial refining technique, Caspian gave a straightforward answer and directly pushed it onto the deceased crippled master.
As expected, Maisie did not doubt favonovel.com at all. After listening to Caspian’s description, Maisie nodded. “So that’s the case… Well, the crippled master was indeed good in weapon refinement. However, it‘s obvious that his guidance for you was not in-depth, and favonovel.com only taught you what favonovel.com thought about at that time. Thus, your knowledge on this matter is not as thorough as your understanding of inscriptions.”
“That’s why I’m seeking your help,” Caspian helplessly waved his hands, “My previous plan was to let the Blazing Spear become stronger, and it’ll be a great help for me for the upcoming competition a month later.”
“Let me think about it.” After listening to Caspian’s plea, Maisie gave it a serious thought.
About 15 minutes later, Maisie finally said, “If you know how to refine weapons, I do have an idea on how to upgrade the Blazing Spear. Do you want to listen to it?”
“That’s exactly what I’m seeking,” Caspian replied happily.
Seeing that Caspian was willing to listen, Maisie was secretly overjoyed, and favonovel.com soon explained favonovel.com idea.
“You mentioned that the Blazing Spear is a seventh-grade weapon, right? If you have enough materials, you’ll be able to upgrade it to the eighth-grade through weapon refinement.” After favonovel.com said that, Maisie took a look at Caspian and giggled. “However, you might have to spend a lot of money.”
Caspian answered, “That’s not a problem, but… Maisie, can a seventh-grade weapon really be upgraded to an eighth-grade?”
“That’s the purpose of weapon refinement,” Maisie explained, “Although I didn’t major in weapon refining, I still dabbled in it before, albeit only theoretical. In fact, refining weapons aren’t as difficult as you think, but the most challenging part is the materials needed for refining them.”
Then, Maisie paused for a moment before continuing, “There’s a reason why I let you increase the Blazing Spear’s grade. Under normal circumstances, the fourth-grade to sixth-grade sharp weapons can only have one inscription, the seventh-grade weapons can have two inscriptions, whereas the eighth-grade weapons can have three inscriptions. The advantage not only lies in the quantity of inscription the weapon can have, but with an eighth-grade weapon, you can have advanced inscriptions too. As compared to a seventh-grade weapon, it can only have two middle-rank inscriptions.”
“So that’s the reason!” Caspian was excited.
With an eighth-grade weapon, Caspian could engrave three advanced inscriptions. Then, his initial seventh-grade spear would be completely reborn. The changes were no less than an ordinary person suddenly transformed into a third-stage True Martial Realm warrior.
Although a third-stage True Martial Realm warrior was nothing for Caspian, the upgraded spear would help favonovel.com easily deal with hundreds of ordinary people. Besides that, Caspian did not lack advanced inscriptions. Previously, favonovel.com only absorbed the first piece of inscription memory in the Tower of Life, and there were still many inscriptions left.
Maisie was not aware of Caspian’s thoughts, so favonovel.com went on with favonovel.com ideas. “Your weapon is a heavy spear, and my suggestion is to use inscriptions that can toughen your weapon, which is also closer to your combat style.”
Caspian answered, “Mm. Thank you, Maisie. However, I’m thinking of improving the Blazing Spear to the eighth-grade first before engraving inscriptions onto it.”
“That’s fine too.” Maisie was impressed with Caspian’s steadiness too. Initially, favonovel.com was still worried that Caspian’s youthful temperament and outstanding talents would make favonovel.com aggressive. However, it seemed that Caspian was not like that at all. Thus, Maisie felt more at ease with Caspian too.
Nonetheless, this naturally made Maisie hoped that Caspian would become a Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciple too, but favonovel.com chose not to say anything to persuade him.
“If you have any problem when you’re engraving any inscription, you can come and look for me,” then, Maisie winked at Caspian as favonovel.com whispered, “With my identity, I still can order the people around here to run errands, but when it comes to matters involving business, it won’t be inconvenient for me to get involved. Hence, if you look for the manager or Uncle William, the Oceans Chamber of Commerce will surely charge you. However, if you come to me in private…”
Maisie’s implication was evident. When Caspian heard favonovel.com words, it felt like favonovel.com said, “Casper, don’t worry. Let me take care of your expenses! Just rely on me!”
Of course, Caspian did not reject her. “If I need any help, I’ll surely seek your help. As for matters concerning weapon refinement, I still have a few questions, and I hope you are willing to answer them.”
Later, Caspian consulted Maisie about a few issues on weapon refining that favonovel.com did not understand. He already memorized the small booklet regarding the weapon refinery favonovel.com found in the Tower of Life, but as favonovel.com never practiced it, there were still a few details that favonovel.com needed to confirm. Although Maisie did not study in-depth about weapon refining, favonovel.com theoretical knowledge was sufficient. Compared to Caspian, Maisie personally saw the weapon refining process. Therefore, after a lengthy discussion, Caspian grasped the initial refining process, techniques, and matters needing attention. After that, it would be materials for weapon refining. As Maisie mentioned before, the weapon refining techniques were not difficult, and the material was the hardest part.
Although Caspian could use the weapon refinement scrap to turn the surplus weapon tools into raw materials, it would never be enough as more items would need to be purchased. Nevertheless, getting those materials from the Oceans Chamber of Commerce would not be so difficult, and favonovel.com could easily settle most of the things as long as favonovel.com spent a large sum of fedulings. Then, Caspian and Maisie researched and made a list of materials needed to upgrade the Blazing Spear. Then, they handed it over to the shopkeeper in charge of this aspect to prepare the necessaries.
Less than an hour later, the shopkeeper returned with all the required materials, and Caspian paid almost 40,000 fedulings for them, which was about half of the fedulings favonovel.com had with him.
The expenditure made Caspian speechless. After all, the prices were even heavily discounted due to Caspian and Maisie’s relationship.
After doing all of these, the sun was also about to set. Maisie wanted to invite Caspian for dinner, but favonovel.com needed to go elsewhere, so favonovel.com made an appointment to meet favonovel.com again soon before leaving the Oceans Chamber of Commerce and headed toward the old town ruins.
