Rous didn't leave the workshop all month ago. From the moment he connected to Satisfy to the moment he logged out, he remained in the workshop the entire time. Meanwhile, Rous can establish some facts that he knows vaguely, or find new facts.
First, making the same item repeatedly was ineffective in improving the skill experience. Every time he made a different item, the skill experience would increase at a good rate.
Second, the better the material, the higher the probability that the item has a higher rank.
For example, when making two iron swords based on the same production method, an iron sword with poor quality metal had an almost 100% chance of becoming a normal rank, he said, while swords made with the best metals had a relatively high probability of receiving a rare rank.
Thirdly, even when he made items with the same production methods and materials, items he spent longer on were items that most likely ranked higher.
It was fortunate that Rous managed to make a unique dagger in just three hours. He had to invest at least half an hour if he wanted to make an item higher than rare rank. In other words, the number of items that could be produced in a single day was extremely limited, so increasing his stats was not as easy as he thought.
Fourth, if he wanted to become a good blacksmith, he would have to invest points in stamina, as well as strength and dexterity.
The equipment and minerals used in the workshop were mostly heavy, so Rous needed high strength to work efficiently. When making items, he should have a lot of stamina if he did not want to get exhausted.
Thus, Rous was very fond of his high strength stat and stamina.
"Great good.. Aren't you still young? You're not tired."
Unlike Khan, who takes a break every time an item is completed, Rous is able to produce items constantly without a break when he is connected to Satisfy.
In the past month, Rous made 73 items, meaning he produced an average of two or more items a day.11 of the 73 items had rare ratings, and 3 of the 73 had epic ratings. As a result, all his stats increased by 34 points.
Rous currently has 11 types of statistics: strength, stamina, agility, intelligence, dexterity, perseverance, poise, indomitable, dignity, insight, and courage. If 11 stats increased by 34 points each, this would mean a total increase of 374 points, which is equivalent to getting 37 levels.
Still, Rous was not satisfied. Wh why? He made 73 items. He invested at least six hours every time he made an item. The material is also as good as possible in its range.
However, Rous had never created a single item with unique value, let alone a legendary one. Isn't this too much?
'I only got three items of epic rank. Is this a legendary blacksmith? Ah, I'm so tired.'
Every time Rous made an item, he earnestly prayed for a unique rank. However, it was almost always a normal rank. Every time, he felt an overwhelming disappointment and wanted to curse the game.
The only comfort is that his production skill level increases.

In addition to the increase in Rous skill level, there was something else satisfying. He has made dozens of items in Khan's workshop over the past month. Khan wanted to give Rous as much knowledge as possible before he retired, so Rous was given one new production method every day.
It's a very big harvest. The original method of acquiring a production item was to perform a specific mission, and the degree of difficulty varied. Thus, it was extremely difficult to find a method of producing goods. Rous was fortunate enough to acquire many production methods without the need for a separate mission, thanks to being the successor to Khan.
Rous took out a book from his inventory. The title is 'List of Item Production Methods.' The book explains the details of the production methods he has learned. The table of contents has grown, from his own 'Failure' to the Jaffa Arrow he studied at Bairan, to dozens of works obtained from Khan ...
That's very interesting.
'When I was in Bairan Village, I only had four production methods, including axes, Mine axes, Jaffa Arrows, and Failures ...'
'Why didn't the woman come up with a method to create that Orb?'
Euphemina wants Rous to make the ball for her. That was why it was very likely that he would bring the best production method. Then he would be able to obtain the production method for free.
Rous was happy just by imagining it. No, wait...
"If..if there is only one chance..what if Euphemina brought me the production method and materials, only for me to make an orb of normal value?"
Will he take his life? Perhaps Euphemina would lock him up somewhere until he successfully completed an orb with a unique value.
"If it's him ..." Rous recalled the psychotic smile on Euphemina's face as she burned the city lord's bodyguard. “...What will he do to me?”
Rous no longer waited for Euphemina. Instead, he hoped he would never show up. He was trembling in fear. Then the workshop door opened.
“Pfft! E-Euphemina?!”
There is an old saying that tigers will come when mentioned. It felt like Euphemina had been waiting for Rous to mention it. Fortunately, the people who arrived at the workshop were not Euphemina. At first glance, they looked like two high-level male players.
"Is this Khan's workshop?"
"I'm Khan ... Why are you looking for me?"
They started questioning Khan. “You competed in an item production game with a traveler named Erina a month ago right?”
"That's true..."
“Is he really a blacksmith? Did you witness him making items with his own eyes?
“The question is strange. Is he a blacksmith? Of course he's a blacksmith. He was hired by the Mero Company to participate in the match and I have directly experienced great blacksmithing skills. No, who are you? Why are you asking such a strange question?”
The men ignored Khan's questions and spoke among themselves. They then continued to question Khan.
“Is the Mero Company the only organization involved in the item production game? Is there any possibility of other organizations being involved?”
"Ohuk!"
Displeasure appeared on Khan's face. He was friendly because they were boys the same age as his son, but they ignored his questions and only cared about themselves. The men don't care about Khan at all. Instead, they started talking about Khan.
“Why didn't you answer? If you know anything, don't you have to tell me? It's better if you don't waste our time. ”
It was like a threat.
How funny.
This is Khan's workshop. These people are guests. They were in no position to question Khan. What happened to their attitude?
They were talking about Khan, who was similar to their grandfather. They ignored Khan because he was an NPC. In fact, this is not uncommon among players. Of course, NPCs were not humans. They're just part of the system program, artificial intelligence.
But Rous knows. Despite being artificially created, Khan has his own memories and feelings. He could feel anger and despair. She can cry when sad and laugh when happy. He was someone Rous could rely on. And sometimes he misses his dead son.
Therefore, Rous was angry at those who treated Khan casually. “Hey, you there, what's with your attitude? What right do you have to threaten Khan? Eh?”
They scanned Rous from the top of his head to the tip of his toe, and laughed when they saw his dirty clothes and the hammer of an old blacksmith.
"Who is this? When did he get here?”
Whahuh? Why do they speak disrespectfully when I am not an NPC?
“When did I get here? I'm obviously an employee here. Why are you so Arrogan when you enter the business of others? Huh huh? Is this your business?"
"Arogan's? Don't make me laugh. We just want cooperation.”
"Is that the attitude of someone seeking cooperation?"
“Hah... should we visit with orange juice?”
Rous hates people like this. Looking at their equipment, they seemed to be ranked close to level 200. However, he could not help but be dishonest when he saw their expressions.
The man's companion began mediation. “You should not be too hot against a beginner.”
“Huh, okay. I need to calm down. Damn, my nerves were compromised after Faker was attacked. Hey, rookie blacksmith, we're looking for the woman. We were in a hurry to find him, so we were inadvertently being rude to the NPCs. That was a mistake. Ii'm Sorry. Is it okay now? So please step aside.”
"You should apologize to Khan, not me."
"......"
They started ignoring Rous. They went back to questioning Khan.
"Khan, answer me. Do you know if Erina is related to any organization other than the Mero Company? ”
Is Khan worried that Rous will get hurt? Khan hid Rous behind his back before he replied..
like and like.
