"You're saying that from the mountain monster's magic pattern structure, a new idea for equipment forging has emerged?"
Huang Yu looked at the three expert-level blacksmiths in surprise. He hadn't expected their argument to be about a new forging technique.
"Yes, Lord, the Scale Fang Set gave us the inspiration," Cang Yun said, his eyes excited.
"The energy from the Scale Fang Set's Demonized Crystal is transmitted through the Demonized Giant Lizard scales. We chose the Demonized Giant Lizard scales because they are of the same origin, which can minimize the energy loss of the Demonized Crystal and improve its utilization rate. But compared to the mountain monster's magic patterns, the energy transmission efficiency of the Demonized Giant Lizard scales is terribly low!"
"We've made a new discovery on the mountain monster!" Baili said, clenching his fist with excitement. "The magic patterns on the mountain monster are exceptionally pure, so the efficiency of absorbing, transporting, and releasing energy is very high."
Mou Ping, not to be outdone, added, "If we can create similar structures, we can arrange energy circuits within the equipment, and the equipment's power will be greatly increased!"
The three of them showed a look of longing in their eyes. "I have a premonition that if this idea succeeds, we will create a new faction of equipment forging!"
Huang Yu was stunned by their words. It felt like they were talking about installing wires inside a machine. The whole vibe had changed so drastically! What kind of equipment would this create? Electrical appliances? Laser guns? Or perhaps mechs? Good heavens... I just wanted you to forge equipment, and you want me to pilot a Gundam?
However... the thought of piloting a mech in another world made Huang Yu a little excited. He immediately asked, "How long will it take to make this kind of equipment?"
"Uh..."
As soon as the words left his mouth, the three who were lost in their daydreams were snapped back to reality. They looked at each other, their faces gradually turning awkward.
"Sir... it's just an idea for now..."
"We haven't tried it yet. The magic pattern circuits on the mountain monster are naturally endowed... It might not be successful if we try to create them artificially."
"What we were just arguing about was how to embed the magic pattern circuits into the equipment... It's fine for armor, but weapons like swords and sabers have to go through quenching in a furnace."
The three of them wore pained expressions again. After all, this was just an idea... no, at this stage, it wasn't even an idea, just a wild inspiration. It was too difficult to turn it into something tangible.
"I see..." Huang Yu's excitement vanished. After all, not everyone could be a pioneer!
[Ding, the Lord has received an optional quest!]
Huh? There was such a thing as receiving quests in the Ten Thousand Races Hegemony? Huang Yu opened the quest message.
[Quest Name: Birth of a Miracle!]
[Quest Type: Milestone Quest]
[Quest Tips: The Chaotic Continent is vast and boundless, hiding all sorts of miracles. Your territory inhabitants are now on the path to creating a miracle. Once successful, you and your territory inhabitants will become legends that will be passed down forever on the Chaotic Continent! Are you willing to lend them a hand!]
[Quest Requirements: Fulfill all the blacksmiths' needs for grounds, manpower, resources, etc.!]
[Failure Penalty: Invested resources will be forfeited, and the lord will suffer a total loss!]
[Hint: Upon accepting the quest, the Blue Mountain Workshop will transform into a brand-new Tier 1 building. Lord, please choose wisely!]
After reading the quest information, Huang Yu fell into deep thought.
The equipment crafted by the Blue Mountain Workshop was his main source of Soul Crystals at this stage.
The Blue Mountain Workshop was instrumental in the Universe Shop dominating the top position on the trading platform!
However, accepting this quest meant the Blue Mountain Workshop would be transformed into a brand-new Tier 1 building!
Huang Yu had no idea what the functions of the new building would be.
But Huang Yu knew that creating miracles, such things that were so ethereal and insubstantial, was not easy!
The Blue Mountain Workshop was a special building of Perfect Grade!
The equipment it forged was even listed in the Chaos Mall!
Seeing the anxious expressions of the three Expert Level blacksmiths, Huang Yu fell silent.
Just as he was about to refuse the quest, he suddenly froze.
Why was he afraid of failure before even trying?
This wasn't his style!
If he didn't even have this kind of dream, what was the difference between him as a lord and a salted fish?
"Accept the quest!"
[Does the Lord confirm acceptance of this quest? The transformation of the Blue Mountain Workshop into a new building is an irreversible event. Lord, please think thrice before proceeding!]
"Confirm!"
[Quest accepted!]
A golden light surged out from the Castle, completely enveloping the Blue Mountain Workshop.
The three Expert Level blacksmiths suddenly looked up, surprise evident in their bewildered eyes.
"Hahaha, to create a new faction?
Such a grand dream, truly worthy of a citizen of my Huanyu Territory!"
Huang Yu stood with his hands behind his back and said to the three of them, "As your lord, how could I miss out on this!"
"My Lord!!!"
The three Expert Level blacksmiths were visibly excited, looking as if they were willing to die for Huang Yu.
Seeing Baili about to speak, Huang Yu smiled and waved his hand.
"No need to say more, I understand your intentions. I believe you will show me the rewards!"
Hearing Huang Yu's words, the three Expert Level blacksmiths' eyes ignited with fierce determination, and they said in unison, "We will absolutely not disappoint you, my Lord!"
The golden light lingered for a long time.
Although Huang Yu was anxious, he couldn't show it in front of his subordinates.
He could only check the information he had overlooked.
Opening his friend list, Huang Yu clicked on the chat window with Lord Galo.
As soon as he entered, he saw some good news.
[Lord Huang Yu, I have retaken the Large Iron Mine!]
Huang Yu had been worried yesterday that the Large Iron Mine would be occupied by the monsters left behind after the Beast Tide, and now he could finally relax.
[Also, I have something I wish to ask you. What is the awakening process like after reaching LV9?
Are there any precautions to take when selecting an Awakening Medium?]
Seeing the latter sentence, Huang Yu was speechless.
Why ask me?
I'm also only LV9, just touching upon awakening.
How would I know what the awakening process is like?
Clearly, in Lord Galo's eyes, based on the strength Huang Yu had displayed, he should have already broken through to Tier 2.
"But... why did she level up so quickly? Her level is even the same as mine!"
"Are the monsters over there lining up to be killed by her?"
Huang Yu was quite surprised.
He needed over forty Spartan Warriors to grind experience for him to reach LV9 so quickly!
And in the middle of it all, he received 2000 experience points as a reward from the Chaos Mall.
Huang Yu felt the pressure.
Even though his territory's overall strength had already surpassed many other lords.
Huang Yu's personal strength wasn't growing quickly.
This couldn't continue!
Not to mention anything else, even Dilios had surpassed him in level by one.
It seemed he couldn't delay the promotion to Tier 2 any longer!
