A few days ago, when he unlocked the [forging] feature, Charles had already obtained some basic knowledge about forging from the instructional prompts. Therefore, he was quite familiar with the forging equipment.
He took out a piece of mystic iron ore from his storage space.
Mystic iron was the most basic forging material, perfect for practice. Until he improved his forging skills, Charles didn't dare to use the Nine Nether Gold Scales or Sacred Bone—if he failed to forge with those, he might just cry.
He placed some firewood into the makeshift furnace he had built in the dirt, then worked the bellows. With a series of crackling sounds, the mystic iron he had placed inside gradually began to glow red.
Once heated, mystic iron becomes soft, making it the perfect time to forge it into any desired shape.
