MTL - Abe the Wizard

The smithy is not in the castle, but near the iron ore field. The Marshall Knight and Abel took a carriage to get there in twenty minutes.

Far away, I heard the sound of a hammer hitting an iron block, and following the sound, I saw a row of neat stone houses made of huge stones. The roof of each stone house had a huge chimney. At this time, six Four of the chimneys were smoking black smoke.

Seeing these stone houses, Abel also saw from it that the Marshall Knights attached great importance to the smithy. Those megaliths are the same as those used in the castle. They were all transported from distant mountains, not to mention their value, but The cost of transportation is a huge expense.

"Master Bensom here was invited by me from Harvest City. After meeting, we must respect him. His craft is the best in Harvest City. If it is not his son, he wants to give the shop in the city to His son, I also ask not to return to Master Bensham. "Knight Marshall explained to Abel carefully.

"Marshall, you are welcome."

Standing up to 2 meters tall, with a sturdy figure and a beard in his fifties, Master Bensham has already greeted him when he saw the lord's carriage, and simply bowed his head, even if it was a gift.

The Marshall Cavalier who didn't care about these returned a gift and said to Master Bensmus with a smile: "I brought a young man to be your apprentice today."

Master Bensem turned to Abel and asked hesitantly: "You are talking about this child? Marshall, don't think I don't know the difference between a young man and a child. This little guy is a child, at best Not more than 14 years old, know that studying with me is a strong apprentice, not a minor child. "

Due to the welcome of Master Bensham, many people nearby came around.

"Master Bensom, this is my adopted son Abel. He is a trainee knight and needs to learn from you to forge to strengthen your power."

"The idea is good, but no, I will not accept him." Master Benstern said solemnly, "For a noble master, forging is a very hard work, and I am not I believe that an apprentice knight so young can have the power to swing the hammer. "

"Master Bensom, I can endure hardships, and I have great strength." Abel stretched his arms and made a strong posture.

"Haha." In front of Master Bensom, who was as strong as a bear at 2 meters high, Abercaine's height of 1.6 meters made a strong posture, and the contrast made the onlookers laugh.

"Abel, two years from now, when you are 15 years old, taller and stronger, if you want to learn forging, I will teach you." Because Abel was the adopted son of Marshall Knight, so Ben Master Sam promised Abel patiently.

"How strong is it to meet your requirements?" Abe asked.

Looking at stubborn Abel, Master Bentham said, "Come with me."

The Marshall Knight led Abel along with Master Bensham to the yard behind the stone house.

The onlookers crowded together to the backyard.

"How many times can you say this child can lift?"

"It would be nice to be able to lift one."

"He's an apprentice knight, and I say he can lift the second one."

"I bet he can lift one."

"I bet I can raise two."

The voices of everyone were talking loudly.

Both Marshall Knight and Abel ignored these arguments, followed Master Bensum to the backyard, and saw that on the side of the backyard, two large irons were arranged from small to large, with an iron rod in the middle. Something.

Abel's more and more familiar, this thing is the same as barbell, but it is much rougher than the barbell he knows, even if the cultural background is different, people's understanding of how to better exert their power is still similar.

"These iron chains were made by me to train the apprentices. They range from small to large, the smallest one is 50 pounds, the largest one is 400 pounds, and each additional 50 pounds from left to right." Master Benthem pointed to the ground and called Said the chained device.

"Garden, come here," Master Bentham pointed to a big man in the crowd who was almost as strong as the master himself.

"Master, me, me, I'm not lazy, I just dumped the slag." Garden explained with a stammer, his dark face was sweaty with tension.

The onlookers laughed. Everyone knew Garden. This was a new apprentice apprentice after Master Bensom came to the castle. Because of his hard work and hard work, Master Carr had been accepted as a disciple by Master Bensom.

There is a big difference between an apprentice and a disciple. Apprentices often have to do a lot of hard work, such as burning a lot of wood every day in the smithy. The segmentation of this wood into pieces is the job of the apprentice. Salary.

The disciples are different. The disciples can prioritize the master's craftsmanship and receive a salary that matches their craftsmanship every month.

"Garden, I asked you to show Abel how to use the iron lock, and let him know the power required to become a blacksmith." Master Benthem liked this disciple very much. He was honest, hardworking, and eager to learn, and for Marshall. The care of the Cavaliers, he also wants someone to replace him to continue to serve the Marshall Cavaliers after his old age.

"Okay, Master." Garden smiled arrogantly, rubbed his hands on his body, walked to the third chain lock, turned his head and said to Abel, "Abel, you can see my movement."

Grasp each side of the iron bar with both hands and scream. The 150-pound iron lock was lifted from the ground at once, and he easily lifted it over his head. Garden did not seem to lift the 150-pound iron lock, and It's like a straw.

"Okay." In the shouts of everyone around him, Garden dropped the iron lock on the ground.

Garden looked up at Master Bensham, who nodded to him and said, "Garden, go on."

Garden walked to the fourth lock, and this time he lifted the 200-pound lock with ease. Then came the fifth iron lock. This time, Garden was obviously not as easy as he started, but he still raised his head.

At this moment, the crowd of people watching and holding their breath, watching Garden walking towards the sixth iron lock, but the 300-pound iron lock, let alone raise it, it was not easy to think of it.

This time, Gardon stood in front of the sixth iron lock and did not lift it immediately. Instead, he closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing. After a while, Garden opened his eyes and sang, and the 300-pound iron lock left The ground rose, and his face became red with force, and the blue tendons on his neck burst.

The crowd was cheering loudly as Garden finally lifted the iron lock over his head, and the scene was very lively.

"Garden, you have more strength, and you will surpass me in a few years." Master Benthem looked at Gaden with relief and said.

"It's far worse than you." Garden was blushed by the master, and he felt embarrassed.

"Abel, it's up to you." Master Bensham looked at Abel, thinking that Abel would retreat when he knew it. How could he know that Abel had approached the third chain without mercy.

Abel just watched Garden ’s demonstration. To be honest, he still recognized Garden ’s power, but the unskilled method of weightlifting made him really disagree.

As a fitness instructor, the barbell is one of the equipments he has played the most before. Garden's strength is 300 pounds. If Garden can lift the earth's weightlifting skills, then 350 pounds can be lifted, and Garden's posture has many errors It's just that his body is too strong, so there is no harm. If the wrong weight lifting method is used for a long time, it will certainly cause harm to the body.

"Is he going to lift the 150-pound iron directly?"

"Oh my God, he can't lift it."

"Is he crazy?"

Talks around came again, and Abel frowned. He didn't like others to look at himself like a circus.

"All leave here." Master Bensem saw that Abel didn't like the crowd, and thought he was embarrassed to be ugly in front of everyone, so he stepped forward to drive away the crowd.

Seeing Master Bensem getting angry, the crowd burst into a panic.

"Don't force yourself, do your best." Master Benstom advised Abel.
