Clang, clang, clang~~~
Hiccup kept swinging his hammer, pounding the red-hot iron block to remove impurities, then forging it into molten iron, and finally pouring it into a mold to form the tail fin bone!
Afterward, he affixed the Night Fury scales he found onto a specially made canvas. This way, not only were the Dragon scales fireproof, but the canvas was also a specially treated fireproof material.
Moreover, this type of canvas was typically used to equip specialized shields for battling Dragons. After hundreds of years of testing, its fireproof properties had proven to be very effective.
After gluing the Dragon scales, while ensuring the canvas was flexible and durable, it also provided a dual fireproof effect. After all, no matter how good a prosthetic limb was, it wasn't as comfortable as one's original lower leg.
Once the iron tail fin bone cooled, he began to grind and polish it, then assembled the canvas and the tail fin bone together.
Now that the large components were finished, only the most crucial connecting buckle remained. If existing materials were used, the tail fin would indeed be fireproof, but the connection point would still break.
If steel were to be refined, the temperature of this furnace was simply not high enough.
At this moment, the sky outside had already brightened. When the first ray of sunlight shone through the window onto Hiccup's face, he slapped his forehead.
He couldn't help but murmur to himself, "How could I forget? Even though it's the backward Middle Ages, there's a powerful fire source like a Dragon!"
"It seems I'll have to tame a Dragon today!"
"Knock, knock, knock!"
Just as Hiccup was contemplating which Dragon to tame today, a knock suddenly came from outside the door.
"Hiccup Warrior! Hiccup Warrior! Are you home!? Beautiful Ruffnut finally made it through the long night just to meet the handsome, charming, and brave Hiccup Warrior!"
"Go away! Hiccup, come out, it's time for training!"
"Go away, you ungentle woman! I brought my brother's favorite breakfast to offer to Hiccup Warrior. Only when Hiccup Warrior eats well can he become stronger, better protect Berk Island, and protect beautiful Ruffnut!"
"Bang!"
Astrid kicked the door open and walked in. Looking at the messy room and the unextinguished furnace fire, she slowly said, "Hiccup definitely hasn't gone far!"
That's right, Hiccup hadn't gone far. He had just stepped out the back door when he heard the door being kicked open.
Hiccup muttered to himself, "Two terrifying women, don't break my door!"
With that, Hiccup headed towards the Dragon Jail without looking back. If he wanted to tame a Dragon today, he had to get Iron-worker Gobber's permission, otherwise, the remaining villagers would inevitably panic if they saw a Dragon circling overhead.
As soon as he arrived at the Dragon Jail, he heard Twins (Brother) complaining inside, "My idiotic Twin sister is completely blinded by love; she actually stole my favorite breakfast! It's infuriating!"
Fishlegs, the chubby one, also said with a dejected expression, "Astrid isn't paying attention to me anymore either! Sigh~~~"
Listening to their complaints, Hiccup was truly helpless. He hadn't provoked those two terrifying women, but now it was impossible to explain clearly.
So, Hiccup could only walk straight towards Gobber, who was triumphantly drinking hot water, seemingly happy that Hiccup was so popular.
After all, all the villagers on Bok Island had always avoided Hiccup, fearing that he would cause them trouble.
When Gobber saw Hiccup, he immediately said excitedly, "I thought you'd sleep until sunset before getting up!"
Then, Gobber asked mysteriously but without lowering his voice, "So, did those two girls go back to the hut with you last night for an all-night talk!?"
"Don't think I didn't see you two walking in the same direction yesterday!"
With Gobber's loud voice, even if Twins (Brother) and Fishlegs didn't want to hear, it would have been difficult not to, and the content of the conversation even more so caught their attention.
Twins (Brother) immediately couldn't sit still and rushed up to teach Hiccup a lesson, yelling, "That scoundrel Hiccup, how dare he bully my Twin sister!"
Fishlegs quickly pulled Twins (Brother) back. Firstly, he was afraid Twins (Brother) couldn't beat Hiccup, and secondly, he still wanted to hear news about Astrid, which might help him give up.
"Let go of me! You fatso, let go of me!"
Due to the difference in size, Twins (Brother) simply couldn't break free. This showed that although the Twins often argued and bickered, their sibling bond was not fake.
Hiccup ignored Fishlegs and Twins (Brother) tangled together, and he was even more speechless looking at Gobber's expectant expression.
Immediately, Hiccup quietly explained his purpose to Gobber.
However, Gobber widened his eyes and shouted, "What! You're so crazy! No, absolutely not!"
Twins (Brother) and Fishlegs had no idea what happened, but after hearing Gobber's words, Fishlegs's face turned ashen.
Twins (Brother) yelled at the top of his lungs, "Ah! Greedy and shameless Hiccup, you even want to marry two at once!? No! Absolutely not!"
Because Fishlegs was sitting on the ground in despair, as if all his strength had been drained, Twins (Brother) directly broke free from his restraint.
Clenching his fists, he roared and charged towards Hiccup, shouting, "Ah! You bullied my Twin sister! I must teach you a good lesson today!"
However, his fist swayed back and forth three inches in front of Hiccup's nose, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't hit Hiccup.
It wasn't because Twins (Brother) didn't charge far enough, nor was it because Twins (Brother) didn't dare to hit Hiccup.
It was simply because the two large golden braids behind his head were firmly held by Astrid and his Twin sister, one on each side.
"Oh my! My idiotic brother, what are you doing? How dare you lay a hand on the great Hiccup Warrior!" As she spoke, the Twin sister's grip tightened.
All those present were young Dragon Slayers. Astrid was the strongest, and the Twin sister's strength was also not bad.
The two of them pulled together from left and right. Twins (Brother) dared not resist, fearing that all his hair would be pulled out by these two crazy women.
Astrid casually pushed Twins (Brother) into his Twin sister's arms, then stood in front of Hiccup and said, "You want to duel Hiccup with just that!?"
Hiccup was very speechless looking at this scene. When did he ever need women to protect him?
However, Gobber showed a benevolent smile like an old father, and seemed to be asking Hiccup how to resolve this matter...
