The process of wearing it isn’t all that complicated.

Secure the iron buckle, tighten the leather strap, connect the hook at the joint to the iron ring at the bottom...

Once you get the hang of it, you can complete the entire set of leg armor attachnt flow in under a minute.

The leather shoes hit the ground, the light gray bony shin guards move with the legs, reflecting a glossy and sturdy color under the sunlight outside the door.

Fingers lightly brushed over the surface of the thigh bone armor, a cool, icy sensation ca from under the fingertips.

At first, it was a bit uncomfortable.

But after Xia Nan walked around the blacksmith shop twice wearing the leg armor.

He felt the lightness and snug fit of the equipnt itself.

"When I crafted these leg guards, I especially considered the impact of weight, choosing lighter auxiliary materials while ensuring defensive performance."

"During the polishing and inlaying, I also made adjustnts according to the body asurents you took before leaving the shop."

"Your body shape hasn’t changed much in these two months, right? If you feel it’s not fitting sowhere, let know and I’ll modify it for you."

Before leaving River Valley Town and heading for Neum, when the crafting fee was paid, Barn had ticulously asured Xia Nan’s dinsions and carefully referenced them during the equipnt crafting process.

In so sense, one could say it was custom made.

Thus, the result was that within a few minutes, Xia Nan gradually adapted to the new pair of leg guards added to his legs.

"They fit perfectly, nothing needs changing."

"That’s good to hear."

The long braided beard swayed gently in front of his chest, Barn watched the bone armor on Xia Nan’s legs and took the initiative to introduce the effects of this enchanted equipnt.

Not knowing that Xia Nan had an attribute panel, as the creator of the equipnt, he naturally had to explain its specific effects to the client.

"The defensive performance need not be ntioned, the main materials you provided were of excellent quality, making the equipnt’s defense much stronger than armor of similar quality."

"The leg armor itself possesses a certain deterrence effect on beast-type creatures. The specific intensity, due to ti constraints, I haven’t had the ti to thoroughly test, but it should certainly not be an issue for ordinary wild beasts."

"If you want, you can leave the leg armor with temporarily in the shop. After confirming the strength range, we can use it in practical combat."

Barn was very responsible, planning to thoroughly calculate the deterrence effect before handing it to Xia Nan.

For Xia Nan, who already checked the complete attributes of the equipnt through the attribute panel, this process was unnecessary.

But he couldn’t just say it out loud.

His expression unchanged, he nonchalantly waved his hand and said:

"No worries, whether the effect works or not, it’s just about saving so effort."

"A tough battle to fight won’t be avoided."

"No need for such hassle, I can test it myself in combat."

Hearing this, Barn did not insist further.

He hesitantly nodded.

"Well... alright then."

Walking slowly in the shop, Xia Nan waited for the other side to continue their introduction, and said nothing.

Unexpectedly, the air suddenly beca quiet.

Instinctively, he turned his head towards the other, only to see Barn attentively watching him test the leg armor.

Seeing Xia Nan look at him, he couldn’t help but ask:

"What’s wrong? Is there any place you feel uncomfortable?"

A hesitation passed over Xia Nan’s face, recalling the three entries on the leg guard’s attribute panel in his mind.

He paused for a mont, and tentatively said:

"So the special effect of these leg guards is to have a deterrent effect on beasts, right?"

Misunderstanding Xia Nan’s dissatisfaction with the equipnt’s effects, Barn patiently explained:

"That’s correct."

"After all, I’m just a blacksmith, not a Mage, it’s impossible to create sothing non-existent."

"The specific effect of a piece of equipnt post-formation mostly depends on the nature of the materials themselves, just like a weapon made from the body material of a demon fish monster, it’s impossible for it to have fire damage, we can only excavate what’s within the materials, not create from thin air."

"The main material of the leg guards, that bone, should co from a powerful beast-type demon in the forest, thus it can have a deterrent effect on beast creatures."

"It might have other abilities, but my capabilities are limited..."

"If you’re unsatisfied, you can ask for the crafting fee to be refunded, and the consud main materials I can compensate in Gold Coins or other ans."

"Our ’Rock Hamr’ Blacksmith Shop does have that reputation."

"Of course, I hope this won’t affect our relationship, it’s just a situation that might arise during normal work."

"No, no, that’s not what I ant." Xia Nan hurriedly interrupted as the conversation derailed.

It was already known in his mind, it seed Barn didn’t know the third effect of the leg guards on the attribute panel.

And there was no intention to hide it.

He just weighed his words, concealing the existence of the attribute panel, using different terms to explain to the other:

"Though it hasn’t been long since I put them on, besides the two effects you ntioned, I also felt sothing else."

As soon as he spoke, a sparkle of enlightennt flashed in Barn’s eyes full of confusion.

It was like discovering a lost relic, sparked by professional enthusiasm and excitent.

"Oh? What kind of feeling?"

He asked inquisitively.

"It’s a very slight sensation that, when I move, if my body’s balance shifts a bit during action, it makes feel more stable."

"Is it agility enhancent or just a balance boost, or possibly a special effect related to the ground?" Xia Nan’s words sent Barn deep into thought, muttering to himself, "Is it because of the two drops of Crystal Rock Solution? Or perhaps, the Light Steel and Hazelnut Extract caused so special reaction?"

A mont later, he jolted back to awareness, apologized to Xia Nan:

"Sorry, I got too absorbed in my thoughts."

Unlike ordinary equipnt with relatively simple and fixed materials, which allows the whole crafting process to be completely controlled.

The creation of Magic Items not only involves tedious and lengthy procedures, but also requires many tis the materials than ordinary equipnt.

And every ti, depending on different types and grades, the materials need specific adjustnts.

In such circumstances, encountering unexpected effects is quite common.

And those effects, unless particularly evident, are generally hard to notice.

Even for longti users of the equipnt, it’s not unusual to retire without ever detecting anomalies.

For instance, a One Handed Sword that significantly increases its sharpness after stabbing oneself with it and painting the blade with the blood from the wound;

Or a pair of short boots that grant stamina boosts when walking on the seabed...

It was only because Xia Nan had the attribute panel, which allowed him to clearly see the specific information of the equipnt at a glance.

Otherwise, he might have to wait another ten days or so, and truly experience a fall to notice this effect of the leg armor.

And for a blacksmith, in cases other than mass-produced standardized equipnt, these unique transformations during the forging process are indeed wondrous and intriguing.

Xia Nan could almost see the thrilling spark in the eyes of the burly man in front of him.

Wishing to return imdiately to the shop’s inner room, to test all possibilities again.

Indeed, if he could pinpoint the source of this transformation, it would an another addition to Barn’s secret forging recipes.

At this point, Barn’s expression suddenly beca serious.

With his right fist, he pounded his chest like an anvil, with force like a Forging Hamr, producing a "bang bang" sound.

This was the "Steel Beard" clan’s gesture of expressing gratitude.

"My friend, thank you for your feedback."

"I won’t say much more, anyti you have an issue, co to , the ’Rock Hamr’s doors are always open for you!"

"Today, I’ll give you a thirty percent discount on any purchase within the blacksmith shop."
