Master Craftsman of the Elven World

Chapter 147 The Black Gold Ruins are an Ironworks
Another rare stone! Daigo's eyes lit up first, but when he saw Guangtai's speechless expression, he immediately restrained himself and coughed a few times in embarrassment.

There is no way. After all, I have heard the news about precious stones again. My instinct as a gem collector is urging me to do so!
Moreover, there is news about the Steel Pillar, the legendary black gold, which Daigo also wants to see very much. If possible, it would be most cost-effective to buy it with money. All he needs to do is defeat Registeel, right?

Daigo looked away, but soon his eyes were fixed on the pile of "thank you stones" brought by He Yue in the corner.

What are those stones? I don’t think I’ve ever seen them before!
Daigo was so happy that he harvested more new stones in one visit to the capital than he did in half a year in Hoenn!
He squatted down to study those strange stones. Guangtai also took a look and found that those stones seemed to be...just ordinary stones on the outside, but now that he had mastered the mysteries of rocks and advanced petrology knowledge, he could tell at a glance that those stones were different.

Guangtai walked over and picked up a stone.

"Rare material: Struggle Stone"

"Description: It looks like an ordinary stone, but it has magical power. It is an incredible stone. It can increase the struggle level of Pokémon."

Guang Moss: "This, this is the struggle stone?"

Daigo: "Huh? You recognize him again?"

Guang Tai: ".I recognize it again. I do recognize it. This is a magical stone that can improve. Well, it has a similar effect to those wood carvings sold in my store!"

Daigo's eyes suddenly became serious.

"So these stones are quite valuable!" He began to think, and it seemed that he did not have any "goods" in his hands that could match the value of these stones.

These stones must also be exchanged for some writings to bring back!
Moreover, Lord Guangmoss is really knowledgeable and always encounters some rare stones. Could it be that he is extremely lucky when it comes to digging for stones? !

My meeting with Guangtai was destined.
Guang Moss was also thinking.

The struggle level increased by the Struggle Stone can be regarded as an increase in effort value + racial value. It is a very powerful special stone!
Guangtai smacked his lips. He had never expected that Yueyue Bear could bring such a thing from the depths of the forest. If he gave the Struggle Stone to Reggie Locke as a precious stone and as an apology, then what could be that larger stone that was described in a very abstract way by Heyue?
Could it be a huge Struggle Rock?

Guang Moss couldn't tell what it was, but it was certain that it was not an evolution stone.

As for moss stone and frozen rock, they don't seem similar.

"Okay, just in case, let's go ask Registeel first to see if it's willing to help." Guangtai and Daigo made an action plan, and asked He Yue doubtfully, "Is the Steel Giant unwilling to help you restore the land, or is it that he hasn't told you the reason yet?"

"Gah!"

He Yue touched his head.

Of course, it said it, but it hammered on the point that made no sense, and said something weird like "come get it if you want it." In short, it just didn't want to help.

"Reggie--" Reggie Locke began to think.

Although the stone man is generally believed to have no brains, Regirock often thinks about useful things. For example, now he guessed why the Steel Giant was unwilling to take out the Earth Slab.

Perhaps it's because it wants to "create minerals and change the nearby geological environment."

Regis Chiru did this a long time ago. After all, it was it that taught ancient humans how to enter the Iron Age. However, it has a very stubborn character. Perhaps it misses the past settlement, or perhaps it simply wants to forge something.

"Producing high-quality steel?!"

This time it was Guangtai's turn to have his eyes light up!

High-quality steel is a necessary item for breeding steel-attribute Pokémon. If Registeel really has this intention, then wouldn't its Black Gold Temple be a natural steel mill?

Maybe we can create a unique metal that is not black gold, but a prop called "composite metal"!

“I have to be friends with it!”

Guang Moss muttered, Regilock's Temple has become a place for stone trading, which can help him create various ancient rocks and mine different minerals, and the Black Gold Temple can quickly process these minerals, so what abilities does the Iceberg Temple have?

Could Reggie Ace be an ice sculpture artist? Or is this really a large ice storage for preserving fresh food?

Light Moss thought of the craft of destruction.

Wouldn't this technology come in handy now?
Completely explore the surrounding terrain. If the Earth Slab can change the geological environment, then can the location of the land or buildings be moved? Just like in the myth, the Holy Pillar King Regichikas dragged the continent with a rope.? !
Combining a variety of techniques and special props can create incredible effects. Guang Moss is already imagining this result. Or, through the technology of making mazes, it is not impossible to create a few "shortcut routes".

It would be even better if we could capture another Melmetal! This Pokémon can produce high-quality iron, and has been worshipped since ancient times for its power to produce iron!
Black gold ruins.

Regis Chilu is sorting out the various "remaining facilities" in the temple. Unlike the simple rock ruins of Regirock, the Black Gold Ruins left behind a large number of forging and smelting tools, such as anvils, giant hammers, crucibles, files, tongs, fire pits, casting molds, and ancient charcoal that has rotted into ashes. The giant stone statue in the center has been transformed into a huge steel furnace. It is a steel-attribute Pokémon, but it is not afraid of flames, which makes any steel-attribute Pokémon look at it and say it is impossible.

Next to the giant's furnace was a palm-sized light brown slab of stone. It was the stone slab of the earth, radiating power. Regichisru stared at the stone slab, thoughts emerging in his mind.

This is an item handed down from the mythological era, from the Temple of the Capital of Gods, but that temple should now be a relic.

Only with this stone slab can minerals used for forging continue to be produced around the temple. Even though those people who once loved forging are no longer here, the temple is still here!

Regis Chilu felt a little lonely.

As an eternal Pokémon, its life is too long, while the lifespans of humans are too short. All of its friends who had learned forging from it were dead when it woke up. The feeling of emptiness, anger, and powerlessness hit its heart, making it on the verge of losing control!
The steel furnace couldn't burn anymore, and all the charcoal was useless. I had to get this temple running again.

If no human being needs himself, no job will be unneeded.
The forests here will be burned into charcoal, and then the land will be turned into iron ore layers that can be smelted and forged!

We have to wait until those humans come back! No Pokémon are allowed to approach this land!

“Beep, beep, beep—!”

The symbol on Regischirru's face flashed, and it sensed a familiar powerful aura. It immediately walked out of the temple with a hammer and saw the giant bear that had returned. However, this time, the giant bear brought a bunch of helpers!
Humanity!

Regichisru discovered Light Moss and Daigo, but his attention was quickly focused on Light Moss because Light Moss gave it a very familiar feeling, the same feeling as those blacksmiths!

Are you also a blacksmith?
"That's Regis Chilu, he really is holding a hammer!"

Guang Moss was also slightly shocked by this fact.

I'm afraid your "giant hammer" is not legal?
"Beep beep beep--Reggie--"

Regiski looked at Regirock who was beside He Yue. It was very surprised and asked why Regirock, who had not seen him for such a long time, was mixing with a wild Pokémon and wanted to attack its temple?
And why has Reggierock’s appearance changed? There’s a bunch of glowing moss growing on his body. Is he cosplaying as Regichikas?

"Regis Chilu, we want to borrow the slate of the earth from you. We can exchange it with you for special props. What do you need?"

Guang Moss stepped forward to negotiate, and Regilock also helped to persuade him, but after the light spots on Registe's face flashed frequently, he gripped the sledgehammer even tighter!
If you want it, come and get it!
"Reggie--" Reggie Locke spread his hands.

Well, since the negotiations failed, it still plans to use force to decide the outcome. After all, its stubborn character is not so easy to change.

"Mr. Daigo, do you have any suggestions for battling Steel-type Pokémon?"

Guang Moss looked at the steel attribute expert beside him.

"Most people only think that Steel-attribute Pokémon are good at defense, but if the defensive energy is converted into offensive power, it will be a terrifying force." Daigo stared carefully at the strange giant in front of him:
"A trainer I know also has a Registeel. When fighting, Registeel will focus and release steel-attribute energy. Its body is very strong and it won't be hurt no matter how you attack it, but it's slow. Steel-attribute Pokémon are afraid of ground, fighting, and fire attributes. But from what Moonbear said before, this Registeel is unusual. Neither ground nor fire can hurt it."

"As for fighting." Daigo looked at the giant hammer again.

There is a high wall between unarmed and armed.

"Boom boom--" Regirock suddenly stood up, showing his desire to fight, which was the first time since Light Moss met him.

"Rock and steel attribute Pokémon are not afraid of rock moves, so the effect is minimal. But, by the way, Regirock has mastered the pounce!" Daigo's eyes lit up.

Guang Moss also nodded:

"It's decided to be you. No, please, Reggie Locke!"

“Reggie—!”

Regirock raised his arms high. After staying in the workshop for so many days, his strength is completely different from that a thousand years ago. Facing a former giant of the same species, Regirock decided to fight it personally!

"This is for you." Daigo took a special stone from his belt. It looked like it had burn marks on it. Guangtai was a little confused, and Daigo smiled and explained:

"Regirock has the power to dig out stones to repair itself. It can absorb the energy in rocks, so I think this stone should have some effect on it. This is a meteorite fragment. In Devon Company, meteorite fragments obtained from Meteor Falls are used to generate powerful energy sources."

Guang Moss took the meteorite fragment and felt it was warm. It was also a prop in the game.

"Then let's use this just in case." Guang Moss took out the "Orb of Life"!
