Chapter 403 -403-Microscopic, Do You Understand?
Facing Caelan’s question, Wesker clasped his hands over his chest, his expression devout, as though he were a believer listening to a divine oracle.
"All of this is His Eminence the God of Puppets’ arrangement. We need only accept it calmly."
"If one day in the future there is a need to pass through to the Aikesi Region, then His Eminence the God of Puppets will surely issue a divine oracle."
"So I believe that, for us, this matter is not something worth excessive anxiety."
When Caelan heard this, the expression on his face stiffened slightly. He had never expected Wesker’s answer to be delivered with such an attitude.
He subconsciously turned to look at Vivian beside him. Vivian sighed helplessly, then lowered her voice and gave him a precise translation.
"What he means is that, for now, Gamma Sector has no intention of actively repairing the passage. They’re lying flat and hoping someone else will come help."
The corner of Caelan’s mouth could not help twitching twice. He had to admit, Wesker really was an interesting person.
At the same time, he secretly rejoiced in his heart. Thank goodness he had invited Vivian along. Otherwise, communicating with these people would have taken a great deal of effort.
Just then, Wesker suddenly turned around. His burning gaze fell on Caelan, and he spoke in a sincere tone.
"Guest from the World of Myriad Races, I can sense that you possess formidable strength."
"Recently, Gamma Academy has been holding an academic exchange conference. If you are willing, I would like to extend a sincere invitation to you."
The corners of Caelan’s mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile. He knew very well that what Wesker cared about was not his strength at all, but the [Sacred Armor] in his possession.
However, to Caelan, this was an excellent opportunity.
After a brief moment of thought, Caelan took the initiative and said,
"I understand your recognition of my strength very well. However, communication between us probably won’t be that simple. It isn’t that I don’t want to exchange knowledge with you, but rather because the structure of the [Sacred Armor] in my hands is extremely complex."
At this point, Caelan drew his longsword and gently waved it in front of Wesker’s eyes.
"You may not know this, but I have a good friend who is a master craftsman of the dwarf race. I once spent a long time exchanging knowledge with him."
Wesker’s pupils shrank slightly, his gaze fixed firmly on that longsword.
"You were actually able to obtain the craftsmanship of a dwarf master? Mr. Caelan, if possible, I hope you can invite that dwarf master to participate in Gamma Academy’s conference as well. I guarantee that you will not leave empty-handed!"
Caelan shook his head.
What kind of joke was that? Did Wesker really think he was a three-year-old child?
If he invited the dwarf master over, then there probably would not be any room left for him to speak at all.
However, on the surface, Caelan put on an inscrutable expression and slowly said,
"Wesker, my friend, I think your request is a little abrupt. That is because the dwarf master has his own peculiar habits and does not like participating in any worldly exchanges."
Hearing this, a look of disappointment unconsciously appeared on Wesker’s face.
Meanwhile, Alice, who was standing a little farther away, showed a flash of surprise on her face. She looked deeply at Caelan, a trace of disbelief in her eyes.
Did this human actually understand such profound forging techniques?
Why did she find that so hard to believe?
However, the longsword in his hand was indeed a high-grade item. Moreover, it possessed craftsmanship unique to the dwarf race. If they could learn it...
Countless thoughts surfaced in Alice’s mind at that moment.
Even so, she still maintained her proud posture. However, her body unconsciously moved closer to Caelan and Wesker, wanting to hear clearly what they were talking about.
Caelan did not care about Alice’s actions. Instead, he continued putting on an inscrutable appearance and said,
"You may not know this, but take this longsword of mine as an example. Its fusion, extraction, and refinement of materials all involve extremely profound craftsmanship. This requires certain special materials, such as Abyss Crystals and so on. Although this place of yours is quite impressive, it is too closed off. If you want to achieve greater development, you must obtain materials from different regions. In addition, you must also gain a deeper understanding of the properties of different materials."
Caelan was not completely deceiving them. Rather, he was speaking about part of his own understanding of the path of forging.
At this moment, Wesker and Alice’s faces were filled with disbelief and excitement.
That was because the forging method Caelan proposed was something they had never even heard of before!
And through the craftsmanship of the longsword, they could clearly confirm that Caelan was not lying. At the very least, part of what he said was true.
Thinking of this, the two of them instantly became excited.
"Then, Your Excellency Caelan, could you tell us where we should begin?"
The corners of Caelan’s mouth rose slightly. He nodded gently and said in a friendly tone,
"Of course, my friend. I am willing to tell you."
At the same time, however, he muttered quietly in his heart:
Dream on! This is craftsmanship I went through great difficulty to learn. If I let you freeload it just like that, wouldn’t I be taking a huge loss?
Caelan cleared his throat and said with a solemn expression,
"If you want to truly fuse different materials together and bring out their strengths, then you need to understand their molecular structures well enough. You must control the properties of these materials from the microscopic level. Microscopic. Do you understand?"
Wesker and Alice shook their heads at the same time.
They had never considered anything on the microscopic level at all, and ashamed expressions appeared on their faces.
That was because they had always believed that the technology of the Celestial Realm was absolutely top-tier. Yet now, they were being educated by an ordinary human. This made them feel incomparably ashamed.
Caelan sighed softly. His gaze deliberately revealed disappointment as he looked at Wesker and Alice, then slowly said,
"I originally thought that your Celestial Realm possessed extremely advanced craftsmanship. I did not expect that you had not even touched upon the microscopic level yet. In that case, I believe you should first begin by deconstructing the characteristics of different materials from the microscopic level. I believe that, for the two of you, this will be like opening the door to a whole new world."
Caelan’s words completely convinced Wesker and Alice.
Not even in their dreams could they have imagined that material craftsmanship could enter the realm of microscopic structures.
Just as they were filled with admiration for Caelan, he continued speaking.
"In addition to the microscopic level, you must also pay attention to the macroscopic level. Let me give you the simplest example. The common Mana Ore stones we see display completely opposite characteristics on the microscopic and macroscopic levels. Therefore, all of this requires research on your part."
"Of course, our research into these things has only just begun as well."
Hearing this, the solemn expressions on Wesker and Alice’s faces relaxed slightly, and their tense minds eased a little.
Fortunately, the gap between their forging craftsmanship and that of the human race was not too large. Otherwise, the technology that the Celestial Realm relied on for survival might not take long to be surpassed by humanity!
