Chapter 56 - Glimmer Chestplate
The current Garrison Armor before Shi Feng was largely different than the previous ones. Its design had largely changed, and even the color had become a pale gold. This was absolutely not the Garrison Armor.
'Crap,' Shi Feng understood he had failed.
Before, he was too absorbed into his own excitement while he was forging the equipment. He smashed the hammer in whichever way he wanted, giving the Garrison Armor a completely different appearance. He even felt good about it.
Still, the appearance of this new Plate Armor looked extremely cool. It would definitely look majestic while worn.
Following which, Shi Feng chose to identify the equipment's information.
The System took a whole 10 seconds before giving a conclusion this time.

System: Unnamed equipment has been successfully forged. Forgery Proficiency increased by 3 points. Obtained 1,100 EXP.
System: Congratulations! You are the first player to forge an entirely new piece of Bronze Equipment in God's Domain. Obtained 3000 EXP. Rewarding 1 Talisman Hammer (Mysterious-Iron rank) that increases forging success rate by 5%.
System: Please give a name to the equipment you have created. You are also able to leave a personal mark on this piece of equipment.
Shi Feng was slightly shocked when he saw these notifications. He had unintentionally remodeled the Garrison Armor, and successfully at that. He even created an entirely new piece of Bronze Equipment. His luck was truly good. The Attributes of this equipment had already reached the level of an average Mysterious-Iron Equipment. If only the materials used were not so poor, it would definitely have become a Mysterious-Iron Equipment.
In God's Domain, players were able to create equipment. However, this was an extremely difficult task to accomplish. Not only did the player have to be extremely familiar with forgery, but they also had to have a thorough understanding of the various materials available. After undergoing hundreds of trials, only then could completely new, and good quality, equipment be created.
Usually, players who wanted to create new equipment would only start to do so after they had risen to become an Advanced Forger. After all, to become a Master Forger, not only did a player require sufficient Proficiency, they also needed to create three entirely new pieces of Mysterious-Iron Equipment, and also one entirely new piece of Secret-Silver Equipment. Only after all those conditions were achieved could a player become a Master Forger.
Due to this condition, the players who became Master Forgers were extremely rare.
Meanwhile, Shi Feng unintentionally created an entirely new piece of Bronze Equipment. Of course, the Book of Forging's effect played a large part in contributing to this success.
"Since the color has become a pale gold, and it's giving off a dull glow, let's call it the Glimmer Chestpiece.' Shi Feng immediately confirmed the equipment's new name. After which, he left an imprint of a black flame at a corner of the equipment. This imprint was the equivalent of a forger's name. In the future, when others see this symbol, they would know that this equipment was created by Master so-and-so. At the same time, the symbol also served to prevent others from falsifying the equipment's original creator.
In the blink of an eye, the equipment's information also had a change to it.
[Glimmer Chestpiece] (Bronze-rank Plate Armor)
Level 3
Equipment Requirement: Strength 12
Defense +23
Strength +3, Endurance +3
HP +120
Durability 35/35
Additional Ability: Healing Power: Healing effects received are increased by 10%.
Restricted to Shield Warriors and Guardian Knights.
On the right breast of the Glimmer Chestpiece, the mark of a black flame appeared. The flame constantly faded in and out of existence, further enriching the aesthetics of the Glimmer Chestpiece.
System: 'Black Flame' Imprint has been successfully registered. This Imprint has been bound to your gaming account, and nobody else is able to use it.
System: Naming successful. Forging Design for the Glimmer Chestpiece has been automatically generated. Player can now voluntarily draw the Forging Design for the Glimmer Chestpiece, allowing others to learn the Forging Design.
Suddenly, an additional window appeared in Shi Feng's Lifestyle Panel. It was called Forging Design Creation, and it allowed players to create their own Forging Designs.
Shi Feng felt endless ecstasy when he saw this new window.
This was the benefit of creating something original. As long as Shi Feng had a Pen and Drawing Paper, he could fabricate as many Forging Designs for the Glimmer Chestplate as he wanted. This was the treatment that was only available for original creations. Forging Designs were much more valuable than the equipment itself.
In Shi Feng's previous life, countless Master Forgers constantly researched various materials and used all sorts of methods to develop new equipment. Other than trying to become a Grandmaster Forger, their main goal was to obtain an Original Forging Design. This item was the reason why some Master Forgers were extremely rich. The process of fabricating a Forging Design was very simple, and they could easily make tens to hundreds of them any time they wanted. Otherwise, how much money could they make, even if they exhaust themselves by forging equipment every single day?
With the Glimmer Chestplate Forging Design, earning 10 Gold Coins was a small matter. At that time, it was even possible for Shi Feng to earn up to 30 or 40 Gold Coins. After all, there were a lot of players in White River City and no shortage of Guilds, either.
Afterward, Shi Feng continued forging Glimmer Chestplates, no longer forging Garrison Armors. Both of them required the same materials to make; however, the Glimmer Chestplate had a cooler-looking appearance and even came with an Additional Ability.
