[There is a possibility, but the chances are depending on the tier and level of the Blacksmith. The higher the Tier and Level, the high chances of successfully forging the two weapons into one weapon, retaining their special effects.]
"Then what should be the Tier and Level needed to successfully forge the two weapons into one weapon?"
Gerard excitedly asked.
[From ascending, the Apprentice Blacksmith has zero chance. The Advance Blacksmith has a 2% chance. Master Blacksmith has a 10% chance, while the Expert Blacksmith has a 25% chance. And lastly, the Divine Blacksmith has a 50% chance of successfully making the two weapons forge into one weapon with their both effects intact.]
Gerard's smile slowly vanish as he heard the bad news. This piece of information albeit important but the condition to forge is seems impossible.
Gerard shook his head softly to disregard such thoughts. That is not important for their current situation. There are many things unattended on his mind such as items and ascending his main and subclass job.
One at a time. He mumbled to himself.
Gerard turned around and went to the tent they set up where Lina and the others were currently at.
Upon entering the tent, everybody simultaneously on the figure, the NPC they revere and respect.
With a solemn face, the NPC speaks with a low voice but is filled with resolve and determination.
"It's time."
Everyone nodded and follow Gerard that depart from the tent.
After gathering all the players under Sky Heaven. They stood silently outside the old fortress. Their goal is to reach the old cathedral located in the heart of the old fortress where the boss of this place and the object of their goal are located.
After standing for a little while, Lina glanced at Payne. She cannot help but be overwhelmed by the mystery of this NPC.
She saw Payne glance back and nodded his head. Implying they can now start the raid.
Gritting her teeth, Lina signals the start of the raid.
She turns her head on the 6 Guardians standing in front of the old wooden gate that was about to fall apart if touched.
Giving them a nod, the 6 Guardians proceed to enter first served as the vanguard of the team. They were followed by DPS players and on the rear are healers and mages.
Slowly, they enter the old fortress.
They were not trying to avoid being caught, they were ready to face them head-on. They were just trying to lure a few monsters afraid of luring a large pack of monsters and creating a stampede. With that, they have no choice but to lose.
But after stepping inside for good 10 seconds, the monsters become alerted. Kobolds and Goblins turn their head on the main gate of the old fortress and saw them.
Alerted, the Guardians start prompting their shield in front of them and readied themselves to use their [Skill: Earth Splitter] if within range.
Kobolds are fast and agile so it is natural they were the first to pounce and reached the area of effect of the [Skill: Earth Splitter].
The kobold's level that pounced ranged from Level 3 to Level 5.
[Monster: Kobolds]

HP: 157

Without too much ado, the 6 guardians use their skill, creating a massive crack in the ground and traveling from their shield to the kobolds.
Once the skill reaches the kobolds, they were rooted for two seconds and it is a signal for the DPS player to cast their skill.

Sally and others also started attacking dealing damage to kobolds and eventually killing them.

Although their skill is not an AOE since Mages were present, it helps a lot in dealing massive damage compared to melee DPS.
In that instance, the kobolds dropped dead one by one, turning into particles of light and dissipating in the air, dropping coins and items.
But they are too focused on engaging that they didn't even glance at the loot accumulating in the ground as the dead monsters start to fall one by one.
In ten minutes, they were able to clear the first 40 meters of the old fortress and loot are everywhere.
They use the moment to replenish their HP and MP by drinking potions.
Although the wounds that accumulated in their body during the fight vanished when they drank potions, their armor, and garb were tattered.
Fortunately, no one died on their side.
Due to the fight, it attracted Ogre's attention now walking towards them, making everyone click their tongue.
So for another 25 minutes, they faced the Ogre and lose their companion due to power differences.
Ogres are hurdles compared to goblins and kobolds, so when the fighting ceased, they lose 8 players.
3 of them are Guardians and 5 of them are DPS, making their number down to 17.
Gerard expected this but it still hurts they lose 1/4 of their forces.
After making sure everyone recovered their Base Points, Gerard took out his dagger given by Kurosawa and place it on his belt.
Glancing at Lina, the latter understood and order everyone to get ready as they were about to face the supposed boss of this old fortress located in the Old Cathedral just ahead.
Taking a deep breath, they push forward and destroy the old wooden door of the old cathedral. Just when they enter the Old Cathedral that has no roof, the clouds covering the moon in the sky disperse giving illumination to the Slime.
At the altar, sat a slime 8 meters in diameter. Its body is neither solid nor liquid but it has properties of both. Making it constantly move like a trapped wave.
Seeing the Slime in the altar, the information about the monster prompted on their interface.
[Monster: Slime]
Category: Hard Boss Level
Level 55
HP: 8000
MP: 1500
SP: ???
[Attributes]
Attack Damage: 210 ~ 215
Defense: 90
Agility: 180
Strength: 90
Intelligence: 51
Although its attacks were weaker compared to its peers, its agility alone is enough to wipe them out if they make a single mistake.
Seeing them, the eyes of the smile turn bright red and its back tentacles start treading forward on their location.
"Guardians!" Lex shouted and the two Guardians from Sky Heaven quickly line up with him while the Healer start casting their spell on the Guardians acting as vanguards to increase their durability and defense.
[Skill: Fortify]

The tentacles travel fast just after a blink of an eye, they collided with Guardian's shield making them grunt and push back while trying their best to stop the force of the tentacles.
While doing so, they continuously received damage as the tentacles banged their shield repeatedly.
-140 Damage
-129 Damage
-142 Damage
Due to their both hands being on their shield, they were unable to drink potions. Fortunately, the healers start casting their spells simultaneously making their HP threshold a tug of war.
+85 HP +74HP
+65 HP +94HP
+95 HP +54HP
But if the situation continues, it will only be a matter of moments before all the Guardians acting as meat shields meet their demise.
So in response, all the DPS except the Mages and Archers move from their direction and lunge forward to the slime.
But the eye of the slime immediately locked on to them, producing more tentacles and trapping them and bombarding them with the attack.
The Assassin immediately throw their dagger and use their other skill to vanish in the air.
Only the Swordsman was trapped in a dozen tentacles now moving forward to attack them.
Luckily, before the tentacles were able to land a hit on them, the Archers and Mages in the back already cast their spell stopping the Slime's tentacles midway.
Lina on the side that vanished in the air cannot help but furrow her brows deeply.
The Archers and Mages skill cleanly hit the Slime so why no damage was dealt to Slime's HP? Weird, even if they are far weaker, it should register damage to the enemy.
Are there bugs on this slime? But that cannot be. The Supreme System Server boasts to be the Number 1 Server in the world and that was proven to be true.
So why?
That was when a tab was prompted in front of her.
[Message from Payne Blanc]
[Lina, come over here. I will give you a weapon that can deal damage with the Slime. I will create an opening and use that opportunity to land a clean attack on the Slime?]
Lina's heart skip a beat and a smile formed.
"As expected." She mumbled
