Dawn City.
Inside a farmstead.
God General Wu Jing held a Thick Back Blade and effortlessly split open a Ram Horn Tree fruit, then dug out the metal component wrapped inside.
He weighed the component in his hand. A strange gleam flashed through his God Eyes as he instantly understood where it had come from.
The God General could not help but praise it inwardly. Using Green Sheep Wood to absorb the iron-rich elements in the soil and directly condense components inside the fruit—what an ingenious idea!
He felt that it was not merely ingenious; the methods behind it were also quite remarkable.
According to the records in the archives.
Although the Green Sheep Realm was a Small World rich in iron elements, its iron ore deposits were pitifully scarce.
Using conventional methods to develop a steel industry, large-scale steel smelting in this realm would be extraordinarily difficult.
The reason was simple.
To smelt steel on a large scale, they could hardly dig up dirt everywhere and feed it into steel furnaces, could they?
A text written by a certain God General had specifically drawn this conclusion—Green Sheep Realm was a Small World that lacked no iron, yet was poor in iron.
God General Wu Jing truly had not expected the Green Sheep People to solve their iron shortage in this manner.
Moreover, the cost of refining steel was unexpectedly low.
There were no fuel costs and no smelting costs. They only needed to diligently plant trees.
Of course.
This method was not without drawbacks.
Compared to conventional methods, trees absorbed metallic elements relatively slowly. Even a small component took three or four days to grow.
At this moment.
God General Wu Jing set down the component and muttered quietly, "The Great Elder of Dawn City is truly far too
