Master Craftsman of the Pokemon World

“Ta-da! Work complete!”

Light Moss made an exaggerated gesture, one arm raised diagonally, palm open, as if displaying some excellent "work"!

And the thing being displayed was, of course, Registeel!

The Iron Pillar's body was polished until it was spotless. Its once somewhat dull body was now gleaming, the steel shell reflecting people's and Pokémon's faces like a mirror. It's just that because it was too round, the reflections were stretched and distorted. Under everyone's gaze, many bulging faces appeared on the Iron Pillar, making it look quite comical!

“Yowu~”

Doublade's ribbons touched Registeel's body.

Too smooth to get a grip!

“Beep beep beep——” The circular dot matrix on Registeel's face flashed once, its two hands waving around aimlessly, as if expressing the incredibility of Light Moss's technique!

Although as a Black Steel Pokémon, its hard steel body would not be injured no matter what, steel also has a fatigue limit. Exceeding this limit will cause damage, but because Black Steel is hard enough and the Pokémon's recovery speed is fast enough, it is generally not visible.

Registeel had never felt so comfortable and relaxed. Endless power surged from within its body, like returning to the feeling it had when it was first created and born!

“Sasa sariri——Regi——” Regirock waved its stone arm.

How is it, brother? Have you calmed down? Does it feel very comfortable?

This human is a mysterious craftsman living nearby, possessing more amazing craftsmanship than the ancient Shindo people, and can also be regarded as their successor. Items polished by his techniques will receive enhancements and strengthenings, which are very effective for us "Pillars"!

“Beep beep beep——Regi?”

Registeel was first puzzled, then suddenly realized!

If that's the case, it's no wonder I lost this battle!

It's just a little regrettable. Since you have such strong power, then I won't be able to protect the Land Plate either. The dream of turning the bottom layer here into an iron-producing area will ultimately be like a mirage, completely ruined.

“Don't be so discouraged!” Light Moss patted the big iron guy: “If you really follow your idea and change the geological structure here, it's actually very dangerous!”

“Did the ancient Shindo people do this kind of thing?”

“Beep beep beep——” Registeel admitted that in the era when it was active, the ancients who possessed the Land Plate did do this kind of thing.

They moved suitable land for survival over and made the products abundant. Otherwise, with the natural environment and climate of "Shindo", it would be difficult to support human survival. Even Pokémon would have to fight each other in this environment because the nature here is very cruel.

“Changing the geological structure, assuming that the entire Black Steel Temple becomes an iron mine, excessive mining of iron ore could lead to ground collapse. The removal of iron ore will weaken the structural stability of the strata, which in turn can cause ground subsidence or groundwater intrusion.”

“At that time, the temple may collapse, and too much iron ore will cause the iron element in the strata to become too rich, which will acidify the soil, causing damage to plant roots, slow growth, and even death. In the laws of nature, everything has its limit; exceeding the limit can bring negative effects.”

The circular symbols on Registeel's face flashed once.

It doesn't understand these things; it just wants to make this temple run again, but hearing that the temple might collapse, Registeel became a little uneasy.

“If you don't understand these things, it's easy to do troublesome things. The ancients were able to do these things because they understood the land situation and made corresponding adjustments and plans.”

Light Moss touched Registeel's body, feeling the other party's frustration and confusion, and snapped his fingers:

“How about I teach you a unique forging technique?”

“Beep beep beep?”

Registeel initially felt that Light Moss, like itself, was good at blacksmithing. Now that Light Moss said he wanted to teach it special forging techniques, the originally somewhat frustrated Iron Pillar immediately cheered up, although its facial expression didn't change at all!

“Feeling better, is this guy a workaholic?”

Light Moss sensed the fluctuations in Registeel's heart and found it quite peculiar. He didn't waste any time and found some forging tools that humans could use in the temple. Obviously, those were tools left by the ancients who built the temple.

In the distant past, the Black Steel Temple was probably really used as a large blacksmith shop by the ancients.

The technique that Light Moss was going to teach Registeel was naturally the flame forging technique. This was one of the earliest forging techniques Light Moss had obtained and was also the most convenient forging technique to use. Under Registeel's gaze, Light Moss took out a stone box from his backpack. After the stone box was opened, the hot charcoal inside was poured into the furnace by Light Moss.

“Beep beep beep!” There's too little charcoal, Registeel muttered.

Light Moss: “This is special charcoal, made from the giant oak trees in the Oak Forest, using a unique firing process to burn out hot charcoal, which has more powerful firepower than ordinary charcoal. Due to the material, it is also more durable!”

“Tsutarja, use a fire-type Weather Ball.”

Under Registeel's gaze, the slender and beautiful Pokémon used a special move on the furnace. A virtual sun appeared inside the furnace, followed by three fireballs summoned by Tsutarja, filling Registeel's mind with question marks!

A Pokémon that looks like a grass type actually used a fire-type move?!

And using it in the furnace, is that "Sunny Day"?!

Light Moss randomly selected some materials and then began forging! Unlike what Registeel imagined, the human in front of him forged very quickly, and even the flames burned particularly vigorously. The huge firepower reminded it of the prosperous scene when the Black Steel Temple was still prosperous. In a trance, the figures of those ancient blacksmiths gradually overlapped with the human in front of it.

The iron billet was quickly shaped, and the forging went through several processes until it became a usable tool!

This is a small hammer. Light Moss thought that half the time when blacksmithing, two hammers are used, one large and one small, each with its important function. The large hammer is mainly used for hammering and forging ironware, while the small hammer is used to guide the hammering of the large hammer and at the same time make fine corrections to the key positions of the ironware, but the small hammer left by the ancients has no special use, only a 10% forging bonus.

So, Light Moss decided to forge a new small hammer for this steel giant to establish a friendship between the two parties.

『Craft Item: Bullet Forging Hammer.』

『Description: A tool made using Pokémon materials and scrap iron, using special flame forging and processing techniques, which can enhance steel and fire energy.』

『Craft Item Effect: Rapid Forging – Forging speed +25%, Unique Usage 'Bullet Punch'.』

Huh? Light Moss held up the steel small hammer, stroked his chin, and handed it to Registeel.

After Registeel obtained the small hammer, a wonderful feeling arose spontaneously. The small hammer seemed to be connected to it, and a slight heat flow flowed within the steel body. That was the energy of the fire attribute, which could not increase it, but could make it more heat-resistant.

Also, the power of the steel attribute has also been improved. With a slight wave of the small hammer, Registeel suddenly realized its correct usage! So, it suddenly waved it at an empty space!

With a hammer swung out, a silver light flashed straight away!

Bullet Hammer?

“Beep beep beep——!” Registeel's tone increased!

It wants to learn this unique forging technique!

“Okay, so from now on, we're friends?”

“Beep beep beep! Regi!” Registeel agreed. It was very happy, knowing that this new tool hammer would be of great help to its forging technology, and Regirock did not know when it disappeared from Registeel's side and came to Steven.

The latest novels are first published on 6⊥9⊥book⊥吧⊥⊥!

Regirock gently tapped Steven, who was studying minerals and forgot the time, and then rummaged through the pile of minerals, and took out a few black and silver interspersed ores like scrap iron.

This is the thing! Regirock put those ores in his arms, and also gave Steven one.

And Steven was initially puzzled, unable to see what the problem was, but after he simply touched the ore in his hand for a while, he suddenly realized the extraordinaryness of this ore!

It looks inconspicuous, but the hardness is very outrageous, and the steel energy transmitted from it.?!

“Beep beep beep——” Registeel discovered Regirock, who was rummaging through the temple, and muttered a few words unhappily, but then looked at Light Moss. It took the small hammer and walked to Regirock, picked up a piece of ore, and handed it to Light Moss.

【Precious Material: Black Steel!】

【Description: A special mineral obtained by melting various ores in a unique ratio, and then polymerizing them under strong pressure, and is considered an unknown metal.】

【Effect: Can greatly enhance the steel energy of steel-type Pokémon! Black steel is very hard, and only Pokémon with 'Hard Press' or 'Crush' moves can forge and cast it!】

【Obtain Craft: Smelting Craft (B+) – The process of melting known materials to obtain new materials. The process contains the corresponding melting formula, but even with the formula, the probability of melting failure is still very high. Use this process with caution.】

【Tools or materials that can be made through the process: Black Iron Ball, Volcano Town Stone, Incredible Stone.】

【Obtain Knowledge: Brute Force – Your strength has been greatly improved, strength +100%.】

The legendary Black Steel has been obtained!

Light Moss talked to Registeel and found that it was mastering the move Hard Press!

However, Light Moss hasn't figured out what to use Black Steel for yet. In short, this precious material should be kept first, so he put the Black Steel into his backpack. At this time, in the temple, Dawn had been waiting anxiously.

“Sorry, although I really want to set off now, I still need to leave something behind.”

Light Moss asked Dawn to wait a little longer, and then found the nearby mud and the iron ore in the temple. He asked Doublade to fly outside to record the appearance of the entire Black Steel Temple and inform himself, and then used the spiritual paper to draw a line drawing, and then used mud and the iron ore and stones of the Black Steel Temple to make a miniature temple model.

Then, use ordinary carving tools to carve patterns on the ground outside the Black Steel Temple, and let Doublade use Mental Blade to help. Soon, ground textures like magic circles were created. Take out stones and iron blocks from the Black Steel Temple. These ancient stones full of powerful spiritual power became the opportunity to attract everything.

Light Moss put his hands on the ground and felt the flow of a certain energy in the earth!

“Doublade, Unown, use Secret Power and Awakening Power on the temple and the model at the same time!”
