"You mean you came up with a new equipment forging concept based on the Mountain Monster's magic rune structure?"
Huang Yu looked at the three Expert Level Blacksmiths in surprise.
He had never expected the point they were arguing over to be the discussion of an entirely new forging technique.
"Yes, Lord. The Scale Fang Set gave us the inspiration."
Cang Yun's eyes shone with excitement.
"The energy of the Demonized Crystal in the Scale Fang Set was conducted through the Demonized Giant Lizard's scales.
"The reason we chose the Demonized Giant Lizard's scales was because they came from the same source as the crystal. This minimized the energy loss from the Demonized Crystal and improved energy efficiency as much as possible.
"But compared to the Mountain Monster's magic runes, the energy-conduction efficiency of the Demonized Giant Lizard's scales was pitifully low!"
"We made a new discovery on the Mountain Monster!"
Baili clenched his fist and said excitedly:
"The magic runes on the Mountain Monster were exceptionally pure, so their efficiency in drawing in, transmitting, and releasing energy was extremely high."
Mou Ping was unwilling to be left out and spoke up:
"If we can create a similar structure, we can arrange energy circuits inside equipment. The equipment's power will increase dramatically!"
A look of longing appeared in the three men's eyes.
"I have a feeling that if this concept succeeds, we'll create a whole new school of equipment forging!"
After hearing the three men's words, Huang Yu was stunned.
Why did this feel like installing electrical wires inside a machine?
The entire style had suddenly changed!
What kind of equipment would this produce?
Appliances?
Laser guns?
Or mechs?
Good grief...
I only wanted you to forge equipment, but you want me to pilot a Gundam?
Still... when he imagined piloting a mech in another world, Huang Yu felt a little excited. He immediately asked:
"How long will it take to make this kind of equipment?"
"Uh..."
The moment he spoke, the three men, who had been indulging in their fantasies, were instantly dragged back to reality.
The three of them looked at one another, and their expressions gradually became awkward.
"My lord... it's only a concept at the moment..."
"We haven't tried it either. The magic rune circuits on the Mountain Monster were naturally formed...
"If we manufacture them artificially, there's no guarantee they'll succeed."
"What we were arguing about just now was how to embed the magic rune circuits into equipment... Armor would be fine, but weapons such as blades and swords would have to undergo furnace tempering."
The three men's expressions became pained again.
After all, this was only a concept... No, at this stage, it could not even be considered a concept. It was merely a wildly imaginative inspiration.
Turning it into something tangible would be incredibly difficult.
"I see..."
The trace of anticipation in Huang Yu's heart vanished as well.
After all, not everyone could become a pioneer!
Ding! The lord has received an optional quest!
Hmm?
In War of Ten Thousand Races, could quests be received as well?
Huang Yu opened the quest notification.
Quest Name: The Birth of a Miracle! Quest Type: Staged Quest Quest Hint: The Chaotic Continent is vast and boundless, hiding all kinds of miracles. Your subjects are now walking the path of creating a miracle. Once they succeed, you and your subjects will become legends passed down throughout the Chaotic Continent forever! Are you willing to lend them a hand? Quest Requirements: Fulfill the blacksmiths' every need, including facilities, manpower, resources, and more! Failure Penalty: All invested resources will be lost, leaving the lord with nothing to show for it! Hint: Upon accepting the quest, the Blue Mountain Workshop will become an entirely new Tier 1 building. Lord, choose carefully!
After reading the quest information, Huang Yu fell into deep thought.
The equipment produced by the Blue Mountain Workshop was his primary source of Soul Crystals at this stage.
The Universe Shop's ability to occupy first place on the trading platform owed a great deal to the Blue Mountain Workshop!
However, if he accepted this quest, the Blue Mountain Workshop would become an entirely new Tier 1 building!
Huang Yu knew nothing about the new building's functions.
But he understood that miracles were ethereal things, and they were not so easy to create!
The Blue Mountain Workshop was a Perfect Grade Special Building!
The equipment it forged was even collected by the Chaos Mall!
Looking at the three Expert Level Blacksmiths' anxious expressions,
Huang Yu fell silent.
Just as he was about to reject the quest, he suddenly froze.
He had not even started trying yet. Why was he already afraid of failure?
That was not like him!
If he did not even have this little dream, then what difference was there between him, the lord, and a salted fish?
"Accept the quest!"
The lord has confirmed acceptance of this quest? The Blue Mountain Workshop's transformation into a new building is irreversible. Lord, please think carefully before proceeding!
"Confirm!"
Quest accepted!
A Golden Light surged out of the castle and completely enveloped the Blue Mountain Workshop.
The three Expert Level Blacksmiths suddenly looked up, surprise showing in their dazed eyes.
"Hahahaha, create a new school?
"What a magnificent dream. As expected of the people of my Huanyu Territory!"
Huang Yu stood with his hands behind his back and said to the three men:
"As your lord, how could I miss out on it?"
"My lord!!!"
The three Expert Level Blacksmiths were so excited that they looked ready to die for Huang Yu.
Seeing that Baili was about to speak, Huang Yu smiled and waved his hand.
"No need to say anything. I understand your intentions. I believe you'll show me the results!"
Hearing Huang Yu's words, blazing fighting spirit ignited in the eyes of the three Expert Level Blacksmiths. They spoke in unison:
"We will never disappoint you, my lord!"
The Golden Light lingered for a long time.
Although Huang Yu was anxious, he did not want to show it in front of his subordinates.
He could only check the information he had overlooked.
Opening his friends list, Huang Yu clicked on his conversation with Lord Galo.
As soon as he entered, he saw some good news.
Lord Huang Yu, I have recaptured the Large Iron Mine!
Huang Yu had been worried all day yesterday that the Large Iron Mine would be occupied by wild monsters left behind after the Beast Tide. Now, he could finally relax.
Also, there is something I would like to ask you about. What is the Awakening process like after reaching LV9?
Is there anything I should pay attention to when choosing an Awakening Medium?
Huang Yu was speechless when he saw the last sentence.
Why was she asking him?
He had only just reached LV9 and touched upon Awakening.
How would he know what the Awakening process was like?
Clearly, in Lord Galo's eyes, given the strength Huang Yu had displayed, he should have already broken through to Tier 2.
"But... how did she level up so quickly? She's already caught up with me!"
"Do the wild monsters in her territory line up to let her kill them?"
Huang Yu was extremely surprised.
He had to know that the reason he had reached LV9 so quickly was that more than forty Spartan Warriors had helped him farm experience!
He had also received 2,000 experience points from the Chaos Mall along the way.
Huang Yu felt the pressure.
Although the territory's overall strength had already far surpassed that of most other lords,
Huang Yu's personal strength was not growing quickly.
This could not continue!
Not to mention anything else, even Dilios had surpassed him by one level.
It seemed that he could no longer delay his advancement to Tier 2!
