The news that Dalak*Tavo Master was going to forge a semi-divine artifact for the new king, Lei Wen, had spread out early.

  Those who heard this news are paying attention to all of this, intentionally or unintentionally.

  Crafting legendary equipment is already a thousand difficulties, let alone semi-divine artifacts. If Dalaran succeeds, it means that among the dwarves, another divine craftsman may be born.

  Not just Zhū Tiě Bǎo, but the entire Dwarven clan will be greatly stirred up, and in the eyes of all forces, the water will rise with the boat.

  In fact, creating a semi-divine artifact can't deceive anyone. That terrifying energy fluctuation, even in the divine realm, has a slight effect.

  Especially when entering the climax, the shocking and sonorous sound of gold and stone was even more clearly audible.

  People with a heart silently count every hammer strike. Every time a new hammer strike sounds, it means they are one step closer to success.

  But after the sixth hammer blow that shook heaven and earth, there was suddenly no sound.

  "Failed?" A scout in a black cloak asked someone beside him in the inn.

  "I don't know. It's said that the seventh hammer of [Tian Shen Qi Chui] is not for displaying power, but for awakening the potential and properties of a semi-divine artifact. Specifically, it depends on whether it will be made public."

  "Indeed, in any case, Dalak*Tavu Master is already very close to God."

  There are still things they haven't said, although the news released beforehand was that Raven was going to forge a soul-bound semi-divine artifact, but most forces think Raven can't do it. Just relying on the will impact required to forge a semi-divine artifact, this shouldn't be something a small white silver guy can bear.

  For these hidden forces, the most ideal situation is that Raven cannot withstand the soul impact and finally gives up the soul binding, while Master Tavo successfully advances and happens to create that semi-divine artifact.

  That's refreshing.

  A minor character with only a Silver Rank is running around with an artifact that can transform its master... who else would they rob?

  This is actually a semi-divine artifact!

  For thousands of years and tens of thousands of years, countless powerful beings in the sacred realms may not necessarily possess a semi-divine artifact even until their old age.

  If it's this ending, just thinking about it is a bit exciting.

  Suddenly, someone opened the door and came in, saying: "Master Tavo has released his new work, it looks like a legendary dagger."

  "What?" The two people in the room exclaimed simultaneously.

  "The master allows people of a certain status to go and observe. The lord of the Iron Castle announces that only adventurers at Gold Summit or above, as well as nobles with the rank of Earl or above are allowed to go and watch."

  The men in black looked at each other, and one of them spoke up: "I'll go."

  In the VIP hall of the city hall, dozens of visitors with not low status almost burst through the door of the VIP hall. The lord of the city had to ask the royal secret guards for help in maintaining order.

  In the VIP lounge, Master Darak Tavok sat in the upper seat, happily drinking the specialty wine of Zhutiabao while appreciating the strange expressions of the guests.

  His son Adick was responding dejectedly beside him, in Adick's imagination, his father should have been promoted to a divine craftsman. But now... the dagger on the weapon rack in the middle of the hall that emitted the aura of the initial stage of legend explained everything.

  "Aidy... what a waste." The dwarf who called Aidy by his nickname was Darrak Boulder-shoulder, incidentally, the name Darrak is very common among dwarves.

  "Alas, I just don't know why Father is still so pleased with himself." Seeing that his old man had clearly failed, yet still looked so smug, Adick felt a sense of discontent: "Dad, using the materials from a half-god artifact to craft a legendary weapon is something to brag about?"

  A legendary strongman who has been in contact with dwarves and has gained their trust is allowed to draw his dagger for observation.

  Taking a look, the blade's cold light flashed, absolutely a rare and sharp weapon. From the forging technique, Dalak Master's skill is impeccable. But such good materials only made a legendary first-stage weapon, it's clearly a waste.

  "The rank of this weapon seems to be a bit unstable."

  The instability of the grade means that after a period of use, it may be downgraded due to loss of sharpness. This further reduces the value of this dagger.

  "Haha! That Raven, actually used the wealth of an empire to gamble heavily! Now that he's lost, let's see how he explains himself to Lady Mist."

  "Haha! The most powerful super spendthrift in a thousand years has been born!"

  It started as a whisper and later became a commotion.

  As the commotion grew more intense, the Lord of Ironcastle, who had never been in favor of making it public, was now anxious to death. He hurried over to ask Master Darak: "Master, aren't you going to say something? This is not good for your reputation!"

  The high-ranking dwarf priestess loudly declared: "Tavo Master's reputation will not be affected. Just now, the great god Moradin has issued an oracle, and from now on we will provide Tavo Master with the treatment of a divine craftsman."

  "Cut... what a load of crap, Master. With such great materials and you produce this piece of junk." The dwarf guards were furious but before they could chase him away, the guy flashed out of sight.

  For a moment, the atmosphere turned very cold.

  The Iron Fortress Castle Lord had no choice but to announce the end of the observation meeting.

  However, Master Tavo's defeat and Raven's failure to buy his way out with the empire's wealth spread quickly.

  Has it really failed?

  Time went back half an hour ago.

  Actually, after the last hammer strike, not only Dalak but also Raven almost doubted their own success. Because the thing forged did not have a single ray of light, and there was no auspicious sign like the birth of a semi-divine artifact, such as a thunderbolt or heavenly punishment.

  There was only one extremely introverted light flashing by quickly.

  And then it was gone.

  Dwarves are simple and direct. The 300-year-old face of Dalak almost instantly collapsed, and two rows of horse urine flowed out with a "hula" sound.

  It seems like I've finally got the last nail in place!

  That transcendent feeling absolutely surpassed any of his previous works. Why was it that after the final blow, there was complete silence?

  Shouldn't! Can't! Absolutely can't!

  But tears just couldn't be controlled, and they flowed down wildly.

  "Waaaahhhh——" The dwarf's unpleasant wailing suddenly startled Edick, Kafra the priestess, and the legendary strongman who were keeping watch outside.

  After they entered, all they saw was Master Darak sprawled on the ground wailing loudly and Raven holding a dark dagger in a daze.

  Their first reaction was also: Screwed!

  Only Raven himself knew that it wasn't a screw-up at all, but rather... too sinister.

  System Prompt:

  Weapon Special Effect 8: 【Moonlight Descent】. In areas illuminated by moonlight, all the above special effects can be increased by an additional 20%.

  After watching a series of dense and dazzling special effects, Raven was completely stunned.

  The first impression is that this thing is really damn sinister!

  It's really thrilling to think about it. The other party thought that Le Wen was holding a small knife for trimming nails, but didn't realize until it cut into his body that it was actually a deadly weapon.

  Light is just enough to kill countless enemies in an instant during a fierce battle.

  The second impression is low-key.

  Levin was thinking that with his high profile, wouldn't some resentful guy come out and shout something like "Down with the wealthy, divide their property?"

  It's fine now. Even if the Phantom Throne is taken out and shown to the God of Prophecy, Savras, as long as it's not examined with true sight by this Supreme Deity, it won't necessarily be exposed.

  Lei Wen suddenly let out a long sigh.

  "Please leave me alone, I want some quiet." Darak waved his hand.

  Most people have left, and only Raven is left on the scene.

  "Sorry, little guy, I lost control." Darak's eyes were filled with tears as he comforted Raven.

  "No, actually I wanted to say, you succeeded."

  "Sorry... huh? What did you say?"

  "Alright, here's a little hint for you. Have you thought about it? What would be the consequences of adding three Phantom attributes to a weapon?"

  Darakton suddenly realized that the most famous thing about the Phantom Goddess was the Phantom Fog that could isolate all detection and surveillance.

  "Blast it! Why didn't you say so earlier?!" Under anger, Darak slapped a palm on Raven's shoulder.

  Caught off guard, Raven pounced on the street...
