Fortunately, Nalant's body has been strengthened and fully meets the strength required for a breakthrough. There is no need to worry about directly exploding to death.

This is why practicing Battle Qi not only requires meditating to absorb Battle Qi, but also requires continuous hard work to strengthen the body.

"Almost!" Suddenly, Nalant, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, became serious.

Because at this time he has gathered Battle Qi to the limit, and when he gives the order at the next moment, Battle Qi will attack the Battle Qi seeds.

"Break it for me!"

Taking a deep breath, Nalant no longer wanted to endure the swelling pain in his Qi veins. With a low drink, all the Battle Qis vented towards the Battle Qi seeds.

In an instant, the Battle Qi in the Nalant energy vein was like the Yellow River bursting its banks, surging with surging force.

Boom!

Poof!

The next moment, there was a roar in Nalant's body, and he felt dizzy all over, and a mouthful of blood spurted out directly from his mouth.

"Ahem! This damn girl, isn't she just breaking through a new realm? Why is she spewing blood? She has to eat several bowls of brown sugar and eggs to make up for it!"

However, Nalant did not show any uncomfortable expression after he spurted blood. Instead, his face was filled with joy.

Because he succeeded in breaking through and achieved success in one fell swoop.

From now on he is a Mid-Rank Bronze Knight.

"Haha! Is this what Mid-Rank Bronze Knight feels like? It's really extraordinary!" At this time, Nalant not only felt that his strength had increased several times, but his hearing and visual senses had also been greatly improved.

This is also the reason why people divide a Bronze Knight into primary, intermediate and late stages, because every small breakthrough is a qualitative leap.

At this time Nalant there was an ant crawling among the flowers more than six meters away, and he could see it clearly.

In terms of combat effectiveness, I believe it is no longer a problem for one person to take on more than 20 ordinary people.

Taking a towel to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, Nalant went back upstairs to wash up.

After washing, I came to the vestibule feeling refreshed.

"My lord!"

Nalant As soon as he reached the vestibule, Sherry the little loli came closer happily.

"Well, little girl, have you waited too long? Let's go, let's set off now!"

Now after completing his practice every morning, Nalant has another activity, which is to go to the stables outside the castle to play with some little Fire-Spitting Lizard.

"Yes, sir!" Sherry immediately jumped on the carriage after hearing this.

Vivian had already pulled Lightning to wait. At that moment, Nalant got on his horse and headed directly outside the castle.

"Sir!" However, just as he was passing through the castle gate, he happened to meet Thomas returning from Wheat Leaf Village.

"Thomas, how is the construction progress of the stone house?" In the past few days, Wheat Leaf Village's renovation plan has officially started.

The black rocks continuously transported from Black Rock Territory are piled up in Wheat Leaf Village. As long as the masons and coolies work hard, I believe that dozens of stone houses can be completed without passing many levels.

"Sir, the construction speed is a bit slow, and the number of barbarians carrying stones is still too small!" Thomas answered truthfully.

"How many pairs of shackles have been made in the blacksmith shop?"

"Sir, these geniuses made ten pairs of shackles!"

"Is it so slow? Have you sent someone to rush it?" Nalant frowned slightly.

Because there were barbarian prisoners, he did not mobilize any more Storm Territory citizens to participate in the construction of stone houses.

After all, the barbarians were captured by him and he had to feed and drink them every day. If they were locked up in a dungeon, it would definitely not be cost-effective, so Nalant immediately used these barbarian coolies.

The only problem now is that there are too few shackles and we dare not release the unfettered barbarians.

I just didn't expect the speed of the blacksmith shop to be so slow. After all, shackles don't require precision, so logically the speed shouldn't be so slow.

"Sir, we don't have one at the moment. Do you want me to go there again now?" Thomas answered truthfully.

"Ding! The blacksmith shop is one of the most important links in the territory's productivity. How can it be compromised at a critical moment? As the lord, you have the responsibility to improve the work efficiency of the blacksmith shop."

"System side mission: Explore the blacksmith shop and solve the blacksmith shop's needs!"

"Task reward: Information about the appearance of Sprite!"

At this moment, a system sound suddenly came from Nalant's mind.

"Sprite reward!" Nalant's eyes lit up!

"No need, Thomas, I'll go there myself." Listening to the sound of the system in his mind, Nalant shook his head.

"Yes, sir!" Thomas respectfully sent Nalant and his party away.

The team continued to move forward, heading towards Wheat Leaf Village under the leadership of Vivian

Since he now has a mission and wants to develop his territory, the blacksmith shop is indeed the key. Nalant is naturally planning to go to the blacksmith shop first and then look for a few little Fire-Spitting Lizard later.

Generally, blacksmith shops are built along the streets, because blacksmithing is a popular profession and a profession where you can make money easily.

However, it is obvious that Storm Territory's blacksmith shop is a special case.

When Vivian led Nalant around Wheat Leaf Village, they finally came to a dilapidated thatched house.

"Is this a blacksmith's shop?" Nalant was speechless. The blacksmith's life was too shabby. The house was no different from other serfs.

However, the tinkling sound of forging coming from inside confirmed that it was indeed a blacksmith shop.

Immediately, Nalant walked directly into the thatched house.

Passing through the thatched house, Nalant soon came to the backyard of the house. At this time, a middle-aged man was shirtless, humming and forging a red iron tool on the iron felt.

"Blacksmith John, Lord Lord is here!" Vivian saw that the blacksmith did not notice the arrival of Nalant, and immediately reminded him.

The blacksmith John was stunned at first, turned his head and looked at Nalant with a slightly complicated look, then quickly put down the hammer in his hand and ran over.

"The villain has met the lord!"

"Get up!" Nalant waved his hand.

"Thank you Lord Lord!"

"Did you forge this?" After John stood up, Nalant pointed at a slender sword on the wall and asked.

"Yes, Lord Lord!"

"You can actually forge long swords!" This was beyond Nalant's expectation. He thought that Storm Territory, the blacksmith, could only forge farm tools or something like that.

Blacksmiths are also divided into three, six or nine grades. Generally speaking, most blacksmiths in the countryside can only forge agricultural tools and other tools.

Only some big cities have skilled blacksmiths who can forge swords and other instruments.

The more powerful blacksmiths are those who can forge armor. Such blacksmiths will usually be won over by the great nobles and taken under their command.

"Back to the lord, I once opened a blacksmith shop in Tulip City!" John blacksmith heard Nalant's surprise and immediately explained.

"You were also exiled?"

Before entering, Nalant looked around the thatched house with his five senses after his breakthrough. The furnishings in the house were clearly a bachelor's house, and he thought he was a native here.

"Sir, I heard that John blacksmith's young daughter was killed on the order of Baron Doke three years ago!" Vivian stood aside and whispered a reminder.

"There is such a thing!" Nalant finally understood why the blacksmith John looked at him with complicated eyes just now.

Regarding the fact that Baron Doke killed many exiled girls three years ago because he was worried that Daughter of Misfortune would attract Dark Creature, he also heard Vivian mention it during chatting.

What Doke did is naturally crazy and outrageous.

However, Doke was killed by Dark Creature in the end, so he deserved it.

"John blacksmith, I'm very sorry for this!" Nalant said comfortingly.

As a time traveler, he has an advantage, that is, when facing talents, he can behave like a polite and virtuous corporal. He is not as stubborn as other nobles and strictly adheres to class hierarchy. After all, it is just a word of mouth.

But John, who heard this, trembled, glanced at Nalant with extremely complex eyes, and finally lowered his head and said, "Lord, this is not your fault, you are a good lord! It's a pity that little Xili did not meet your arrival!"

John naturally knows what Nalant did during this period, so even though he resents the nobles, he cannot hate Nalant.

After a pause, John continued, "I wonder if there is anything you need me to do when the lord comes here!"

"Well, I heard that the forging speed of shackles is a bit slow. John You can even forge long swords, so it shouldn't be so slow. Can you tell me what problem you encountered?"
