The first floor of the Blacksmith's Association contained only basic forging rooms; the second floor held the intermediate ones.
Compared to the first floor, the second floor had far fewer people, with only NPCs walking around. No players came here at all. Moreover, there were only twenty intermediate forging rooms, unlike the fifty basic ones.
Inside the intermediate forging room, the entire space was larger and more refined. The equipment was also superior to that in the basic rooms, especially the forging hammer and the flame—neither was simple.
Shi Feng casually picked up the small silver-white hammer resting on the anvil.
Hundred-Refined
Forging Items: Increases success rate by 3% when forging items.
Requirement: 4 Strength.
Just this Hundred-Refined Hammer was difficult to obtain. From NPCs, you could at most buy an ordinary iron hammer that didn't add any success rate. As for taking this Hundred-Refined Hammer away, that was absolutely impossible—it belonged to the forging room and players couldn't take it.
The flame here was also unusual. Its burning color wasn't reddish-yellow, but reddish-cyan—not an ordinary fire, but a Strange Fire.
Shi Feng scanned it as well.
Red Demon Fire (First-Rank Strange Fire)
Special Item: Possesses extremely high temperature, allowing smelted items to be purer. Increases the success rate to a certain degree when refining potions and forging items.
Strange Fire was a powerful flame between heaven and earth, extremely rare. Based on its abilities, it was divided into nine ranks, with first-rank being the weakest and ninth-rank the strongest. Even first-rank Strange Fire was not something players could easily obtain.
In the Divine Realm, due to the rarity of Strange Fire, its intrinsic value was already very high. Combined with the fact that both potion making and forging required Strange Fire, its value became even more staggering.
Once, a fourth-rank Strange Fire had led more than ten first-rate guilds to fight over it. After millions of players died or were injured, it was finally obtained by Domineering World. Not long after, a potion master from Domineering World advanced to become a potion grandmaster, causing Domineering World's strength to surge significantly.
Seeing the burning Strange Fire, Shi Feng was extremely yearning for it—this was the desire of a blacksmith.
Just as Shi Feng was lost in thought, he suddenly recalled something.
In the second month after the Divine Realm opened, the third-rate guild Glorious Stars had discovered a second-rank Strange Fire, the Ice Blue Demonic Flame, in the Hundred Ghost Forest, which made many guilds jealous. At that time, many life-skilled players went to join Glorious Stars, causing their strength to suddenly increase, making them the dominant force in a small city. Many guilds secretly investigated, wanting to get the Strange Fire, and the Shadow Guild was naturally no exception.
From within Glorious Stars, they learned the location and method to obtain the Strange Fire. Unfortunately, this Strange Fire only appeared once and never appeared again, causing many guilds to waste their efforts.
Thinking of the Ice Blue Demonic Flame, Shi Feng immediately hatched a plan for this Strange Fire. If he could get his hands on it, it would definitely be a great help for developing his own guild in the future, and it would greatly assist his own advancement as a blacksmith.
However, to obtain the Ice Blue Demonic Flame, Shi Feng still needed to plan carefully and prepare many things before there was any possibility of getting it.
Afterward, Shi Feng stopped wasting time, took out the blueprint for the Guardian Armor, and directly chose to learn it.
