Chapter 14: Hestia and Hephaestus Visit Again Time flies, two days passed, the waterway was finally completed, and the reservoir began to store water. It is now the ninth day of the construction of the Dimension City. In addition to the completion of the waterway, there have been some changes in life. The first thing to be affected is the change in food. Many leafy vegetables and fruits are ripe, enriching the table. In terms of seasonings, the most basic ginger and garlic are also available, which greatly improves the taste of the food. Then there are Xiao Hei and the others. It can only be said that it is worthy of being a world-famous monster. Xiaoxue was able to get up and move around normally the next day. Together with Xiaohei, she either followed Su Mo or patrolled everywhere. The four little guys also came outside today, exploring everywhere with curious little staggering steps.
So in the dimensional city, you can see these cute little coal balls from time to time. Su Mo also gave them names. However, unlike the original book, from oldest to youngest, they follow Xiao Hei's surname, namely Hei Dalang, Hei Erlang, Hei Sanlang, and Hei Silang. Does it look like an ancient Japanese name? In fact, this is an ancient Chinese style! The same format applies to Wu Dalang and the brothers of the Yang Family. Moreover, in ancient times, flower-growing was the name that mothers called their children. As long as there is a plural number, it is also in the same order of Jilang and Jilang. Nihong just copied it later. Closer to home. After the waterway was completed, Su Mo did not have any free time and began to prepare to build a storage room with Tomoko. After the construction is completed, a threshing ground will be opened up. The harvest is getting closer and closer, and we must prepare as soon as possible. While planning the design with Tomoko, Su Mo suddenly received a prompt from the system. "Ding Dong! You have a new visitor, please go and receive him." After receiving the prompt, Su Mo asked Chieko to take care of herself first and hurried towards the dimensional gate. "Ow! Ow!" "Wow! Why are there still monsters?" Before he even got close, he heard such a noise, and Su Mo hurriedly shouted: "Wait! Xiao Hei! Xiao Xue! Don't be impulsive!" I rushed over quickly and saw a familiar figure.
It's Hestia. Not only her, there was also a red-haired woman with an eyepatch next to her. "Hi Su Mo, I'm here again." Seeing Su Mo appear, Hestia was no longer wary of Xiao Hei and Xiao Xue, and greeted Su Mo with great energy. "Welcome, welcome, Hestia. Sorry, I hope the little black ones didn't scare you." Su Mo stepped forward to comfort Xiao Hei and Xiao Xue, while welcoming Hestia and the others with a smile. I made a mistake. I should have told Xiao Hei and the others about the dimensional gate earlier. "No, no, I'm just a little surprised." "that would be great." "By the way, let me introduce you to this, this is my good friend..." Before Hestia could finish, Su Mo answered, "I know." He came forward and shook the red-haired woman's hand enthusiastically. "Welcome to the Dimensional City, Goddess Hephaestus. A forging god like you could not be more welcome." "Thank you." Hephaestus was a little bit unaccustomed to Su Mo's enthusiasm, but after all, she didn't want to hit someone who smiled at her, so she still said politely: "Hestia, thank you for taking care of me before." "So this time I came here, not only because I wanted to see the so-called dimensional city, but also because I wanted to express my gratitude." As she spoke, she took the box that had just been placed on the ground, opened it and showed what was inside. "Because I know you don't lack weapons and tools, I only picked some daily necessities." There are several things in the box. A pair of crystal goblets, a bottle of wine, a set of exquisite silver cutlery, a box of high-end-looking soap, and a box of tea. "And mine, I told you last time that I would bring you something good." Hestia also showed off her gift. In fact, Su Mo had already guessed what her gift was when he saw that she was carrying a large bag. "Clang clang! Soft mattresses and quilts! And lots of new clothes!" She took a long time to choose these as gifts based on Su Mo's situation. Although it didn't look as high-end as Hephaestus' gift, it was exactly what Su Mo needed, so Su Mo was very happy. "Thank you Hestia, you really helped me a lot. I was just wondering how to get these things." "Hehe, I knew you would like it, Su Mo."
Hearing Su Mo say this, Hestia couldn't help but feel a little proud, causing Hephaestus beside her to shake her head helplessly. Inviting the two into the house, Su Mo put the gifts away and made tea with the tea that Hephaestus had given him. There's no other way. He really doesn't have this kind of thing here, so he can only entertain him like this. But compared to the last time Hestia came, it was much better. At least Su Mo cut a cantaloupe and washed some strawberries, blueberries and cherry tomatoes and made a fruit plate. "I thought you would come back in ten days or half a month, but I didn't expect it to be so soon." Now if you count it, it’s only been a week. Hestia ate the fruit without hesitation and said with a smile, "Because I don't have anything to do over there, I came here immediately after finishing the trivial matters in the past two days." "Two days? It's only been two days since you went back?" Su Mo immediately noticed the difference in time. "Yes what's the matter?" "It's already the ninth day here, and it's been seven days since you went back." "Eh? Is that so?" The three of them were all shocked. "That's not right. Hestia stayed here for half a day before, and half a day passed after she went back." Hephaestus discovered another problem. "Maybe it's only after you came here that time became synchronized. It should be the effect of the dimensional gate. After you left, time flows at your own speed." Hestia and the other girl also accepted this statement, and then they felt that this place was really magical. "I was wondering, how come there have been such big changes here in just two days? It turns out that the speed of time is different. A week has already passed here." That’s right. After Su Mo’s slow polishing, the outside of the house looks much better. The inside has also been dusted off, and the ceiling and walls have turned pure white, which is bright and clear during the day. The crops in the fields outside have almost grown, and they are all green, no longer the original black soil. There is also a pool and some new buildings. Then, out of Hestia's curiosity, Su Mo took the two of them to visit the current "Dimension City" and introduced Tomoko, Xiao Hei, Xiao Xue, and four cute little coal balls. The four little cuties instantly attracted Hestia's interest, and she couldn't let go of them. Hephaestus was very interested in the new smelting workshop, which was different from Orario's style, and pulled Su Mo to show him a practical demonstration. Su Mo happened to have an experiment to do, so he followed Hephaestus's wishes. …To be continued… Please support me in every way! Monthly tickets, flowers, comments, and rewards! .
Chapter 15 Technical Exchange, Hestia's Second Invitation The so-called experiment is actually burning glass. He plans to replace the windows of his house with glass. However, he only knew the method and reviewed it with Tomoko, but he had not yet found time to experiment. Pour a certain proportion of quartz sand into a container and mix it with limestone and other raw materials, then put it into a blast furnace and heat it until it melts. Then Su Mo used a blowpipe made from a universal tool to stick the molten viscous solution on it, and shaped it by blowing and rolling it on a flat surface. Unexpectedly, because of the use of the universal blowpipe, the process went surprisingly smoothly. The shaping could be said to be exactly according to what he had in mind, and he successfully made a glass cup. "It's embarrassing." Knowing that the reason for his success was the universal device, Su Mo did not dare to be proud in front of Hephaestus. Instead, he felt a little embarrassed. After all, unlike the cheating him, the one next to him is the real God of Forging, possessing divine skills. It felt like I was using my little cleverness to show off to a professional university professor. It was like showing off my skills in front of Guan Gong... Seeing Su Mo's thoughts, Hephaestus smiled cheerfully and said, "Don't be too modest. Your selection and proportion of materials are also quite exquisite. There are not many people in Orario who can make such transparent and flawless glass." How could it not be exquisite! This is the ratio of modern industry! If you use modern technology to compare with the medieval technology in Orario, it would be a miracle if it is not exquisite! Su Mo was even more afraid to take credit for it, and quickly waved his hand: "I am just repeating what others have said, it is all thanks to the hard work of our predecessors." "Then these seniors of yours are really amazing." Su Mo did not continue to talk about this topic, but demonstrated the casting method, hundred-fold steel, Damascus and other techniques to Hephaestus. He also forged the Qin Sword, the Eight-sided Han Sword, the Longquan Sword, the Ring-handled Sword, the Mo Sword, the Tang Sword, the Miao Sword and other weapons, and showed Hephaestus some of the weapon forms he knew. Hephaestus looked very satisfied. She gave Su Mo some advice and personally forged a... uh, kitchen knife for Su Mo. Yes, it's a kitchen knife. Because this was Su Mo's own request, after all, he had no shortage of weapons. Hephaestus wasn't completely serious and didn't use any divine skills, but even so, her skills were at the top level among mortals. This kitchen knife is probably the dream knife that many chefs dream of. Because Hephaestus even enchanted it, giving it the attributes of dexterity and indestructibility! It can be said that this kitchen knife can be regarded as a family heirloom, passed down from generation to generation, because it can even never be broken! Because of its dexterity, this kitchen knife can even improve the knife skills of the person using it by one or two levels! It's simply outrageous!
It has to be said that Su Mo was amazed by the forging effect of this extraordinary power. Su Mo also gained something from it, and his forging skills were greatly improved. It’s just that the enchantment aspect is a little hard to learn because it’s too complicated. It’s a completely different system and I have to start from scratch. The two of them had a pleasant conversation during the technical exchange, but Hestia was a little unhappy. She was obviously the one who came first!
