[Introduction: I don’t know who spread the word that I forged a Crimson Iron Sword for the hero for free, but my fame has grown even larger. Everyone thinks that since even a hero came to me for weapon forging, my skills must be superb. Although that is indeed the case, being famous isn’t entirely good.

With the increase in fame, I have recently encountered some bizarre forging requests, like just yesterday when the lord’s daughter asked me to forge a durable set of Crimson Iron Teeth for her father. Facing this genius idea, I couldn’t help but shout ’professional.’

I gladly accepted the lord daughter’s request because, compared to licking and kissing the Crimson Iron Equipment, putting the iron directly into one’s mouth must be more pleasurable. For the noble Lord, I specifically chose the freshest Refined Crimson Iron ball to forge his teeth. —From a Nameless Blacksmith who just wants to earn money quietly]

"Again, equipment forged by this Nameless Blacksmith? Don’t tell me all the equipment I get in the Crimson Iron Ant Nest was crafted by him," Zhang Yanhang thought to himself, feeling slightly creeped out. Clearly, no humans were supposed to be here, yet equipment forged by humans exists. This situation is quite bizarre, and understanding it might just reveal the structure of the Ashen World.

"This set of Crimson Iron Teeth has surprisingly good attributes, directly comparable to the Crimson Iron Heart Necklace, with the same one point in the Charm attribute enhancement.

As for the bonuses in Flame Resistance and Acid Resistance, they are only 0.2% less than the initial state of the Crimson Iron Heart Necklace. Even though it didn’t reach 4%, 3.8% is still pretty good.

Moreover, the score of the Crimson Iron Teeth is still acceptable; although it’s among the lower end in blue quality, I should be able to forge sixteen sets of Crimson Iron Teeth, which could perfectly fuse up to +4.

By then, even though the Crimson Iron Teeth currently only have a score of 37, by fusing them into Crimson Iron Teeth +4, they might at least be upgraded to Purple Quality.

But here comes the problem, what good does upgrading to Purple Quality do if I still can’t use it?"

Zhang Yanhang was in a rather complex mood; in a way, his wish had indeed come true, as he had truly obtained a new piece of equipment for enhancing the Charm attribute from the Crimson Iron Breeding Ant Treasure Box.

But although he now had the equipment, he couldn’t use it. And if he couldn’t use it, what difference did it make from not having it at all?

Thus, while Zhang Yanhang’s wish was indeed fulfilled, there was a slight hiccup in the specific type of equipment, rendering him unable to use it normally.

That was why he had said earlier that gathering equipment specifically for enhancing the Charm attribute was really difficult because you never know if the next equipment you forge will still be like the Crimson Iron Teeth, effective in enhancement but unusable.

"So, here comes the question, do I choose this blue quality Crimson Iron Teeth? Although I can’t use it, at least it’s a blue quality equipment, certainly more valuable than the other two options of white quality weapons."

After pondering for a while, Zhang Yanhang finally decided to take the blue quality Crimson Iron Teeth, because he suddenly remembered something; since he had Alchemy, perhaps he could modify the Crimson Iron Teeth a bit.

Like transforming the Crimson Iron Teeth in such a way that they retain the original enhancement effects, but the external structure is modified to suit Zhang Yanhang’s use.

In fact, Zhang Yanhang had already conceptualized this long back, when he initially simulated what to do if he obtained completely inappropriate equipments like nose rings and tongue piercings, which totally contradict normal aesthetics and values—the answer was to use Alchemy to make minor adjustments to their appearance.

As long as he adjusts them with Alchemy, perhaps he could transform them into equipment with the same placement, but something relatively normal.

Since it was only a simulation, Zhang Yanhang had this idea initially but didn’t experiment with it due to lack of suitable subjects. Now that he had chosen the Crimson Iron Teeth, the subject for his experiment was ready.

Since Zhang Yanhang had never conducted the experiment, he didn’t know if this method would work. However, if it doesn’t work, then there’s nothing he can do, and he would need to find another method to modify the Crimson Iron Teeth later.

"So, I choose ’120 Soul Points,’ ’120 Soul Points,’ ’Ant Power,’ ’120 Soul Points,’ ’Crimson Iron Teeth.’"

After quickly making his choice, time resumed its flow. Zhang Yanhang didn’t immediately go to open other Treasure Boxes but first picked up the set of Crimson Iron Teeth, entirely made from crimson iron, carefully inspecting them; they were completely red, symmetrically arranged with a total of twenty-eight teeth.

After examining the appearance, Zhang Yanhang also briefly weighed them; they were quite heavy for ordinary people. If worn for long, one might feel soreness and swelling in the jaw muscles, and frequent acid pain from the masseter muscles when eating might be felt.

"Ah, why can’t I just get some normal equipment..." Zhang Yanhang sighed while looking, suspecting that modifying the Crimson Iron Teeth wouldn’t be something easily accomplished.

After briefly observing the Crimson Iron Teeth, Zhang Yanhang set them aside and picked up a green quality Crimson Iron Breeding Ant Treasure Box; he had nineteen more boxes to open.

Since the number was relatively small, he should be able to finish soon and then Zhang Yanhang would be able to acquire enough Ant Power Talent.
