Chapter 384: Ripening the Fat Bear

Crown asked, "How is the construction of the castle's main fort going?"

There is only a month left before winter, and the main fort must be completed before the cold winter comes.

Eliza said, "Most of it has been completed, mainly because there are not enough building materials. You require that the main fort must be built with magic-breaking metal dyed with golden light, which affects the progress of the project."

The craftsmen are building quite fast, and the raw materials restrict the speed of completion of the construction.

"We must speed up the progress. I will find a way to solve the material problem. I will bury the magic array after the main fort is completed."

There are 100,000 pounds of fine iron bricks that meet the requirements stored in Clown's Fire Seed Magic Cube, which can be used. In addition, his ability to use the golden light-dyed metal is far superior to others, so he can participate in the manufacture of raw materials.

There are several sets of cornerstones for the Moon Soul Spirit Light Array, and he is going to take out a set to arrange in the mansion.

Eliza nodded: "If the material problem is solved, things will be easy. Now the craftsmen are building the city walls. These are ordinary city walls that cannot defend against powerful monsters, which increases the workload of our guards."

Crown said: "It's time to increase the number of guards. How is our financial situation?"

He decided to take out a certain proportion of the members of the Daozhong armed guards in the future. Although these people's extraordinary levels are not high enough, they are his direct forces.

Flanders, Purinton, Audrey and others can provide more proficiency, but they are not his subordinates, but more like allies. In addition, the distance is relatively far, and if there is an emergency, distant water cannot quench the thirst.

Therefore, cultivating Del and others is his future strategic direction.

He is still considering the specific plan, which must ensure the improvement of his own extraordinary level and take into account the cultivation of his own power.

Otherwise, he will have to do everything himself, and the experience is too bad.

"Very good. The supply of Golden Light Potion and Pure Heart Potion is in short supply. We can obtain Golden Spirit Coins through purification every day. In addition to the blacksmith shop and other related industries, even though our expenses are not small, we can still have a surplus of 40 to 50 Golden Spirit Coins every day.

People who obtain the Golden Light Dao Seeds can earn a few Golden Spirit Coins every day. The debts owed by Luo Lin and others have been paid off.

A few days ago, William and I checked the accounts. We currently have more than 15,000 Golden Spirit Coins in reserve, and various materials are worth about 8,000 Golden Spirit Coins."

Eliza paused, picked up a document and handed it out, and said Said:

"According to the document Nick sent, the birth rate of urban residents has greatly increased, and the population has exploded. In a few years, the city will not be able to accommodate so many people.

He proposed to expand the city, and the investment for the expansion should be provided by our two families. What do you think?"

Crown took the document, glanced through it, and said:

"I want to hear your opinion."

He didn't understand things like investment and returns, otherwise he wouldn't have been just a poor loser in his previous life. He bought stocks and became a shareholder, bought funds and was stuck, and the old hen lost everything and became a chick. It's all tears to talk about it.

"Based on my experience, this kind of investment is a stable source of income in the long run, but the premise is that Hamers City continues to maintain prosperity and development.

As long as the city is stable, the larger the population base, the greater the return on investment.

I have confidence in you. With you in charge of Hamers, the security here is not much weaker than the Church of the Holy See.

In addition, I have seen the drawings of the asylum array. The original design of the city thought of this situation. The range of the array can completely cover the new city area.

We only need to invest in ordinary buildings, and there is no financial pressure for us."

After listening, Clown nodded, signed his name on the document, and stamped his ring seal.

A short separation is better than a new marriage. After enjoying dinner, the two went back early to "rest".

In the morning, even after a midnight warm-up, Clown still got up refreshed.

He walked into the yard and surveyed the actual situation in the mansion. Billy, his personal servant, followed behind him, holding a small notebook to record every one of his instructions.

"Move this osmanthus tree and transplant it to the other side of the courtyard wall."

Crown put his hands behind his back and nodded seriously: "Did you write it down?"

As long as the servants finished what he ordered, they could start to arrange the Moon Soul Spirit Light Array.

"Sir, I've written it down," Billy looked at the small notebook, quickly assessed the workload, and said:

"These tasks are relatively simple and can be completed before the evening."

"Well, I'll give you one day. I want to see a brand new courtyard tomorrow morning."

He looked at Billy and said gently:

"Not bad, you actually have the strength of a second-level extraordinary person."

Billy smiled shyly and responded:

"The world's spiritual concentration is constantly increasing, and the overall environment is favorable. More importantly, I have enjoyed more conveniences with you. All my income is used to buy various extraordinary potions. There is nothing to praise about such an improvement."

Crown was very satisfied with his answer. The other party worked seriously, took good care of several tamed beasts, was down-to-earth and hardworking, and was willing to take the time for others to rest to improve himself.

Judging from the results, the other party's extraordinary qualifications are above average. If there are extra Golden Light Dao Seeds, he will consider giving him one.

Crown patted the other party's shoulder with a friendly expression: "Work hard, as long as you are willing to endure hardships, there will be good rewards."

Even though he was his personal manservant, his salary was not high. It was expensive to buy extraordinary potions, so he must have spent all his income on himself.

Billy's face flushed with excitement. He worked hard silently to get the bishop's recognition, and now the other party saw it!

He clenched his fist and put it on his chest, saying solemnly: "I will work harder."

Coming from an ordinary background, he deeply understood that it is not to work hard when you see hope, but to persist in working hard to see hope.

When Crown got off the carriage, there was a clanging sound from the blacksmith shop. The sound was monotonous and harsh in the ears of others, but it was a bit intimate in his ears.

He walked into the blacksmith shop, and the apprentice in charge of reception immediately came up to him:

"Bishop, you are here! Please come to the guest room and sit down. I will go and ask Director Del to come."

Crown waved his hand: "No need to bother. Where is Del? I will go find him."

"Uh, please follow me."

The apprentice led the way in front and came to the door of the advanced forging room, saying:

"Sir Del is forging weapons inside."

"You go and get busy," Crown pushed open the door, and there was high-temperature mist inside. He saw Del forging evil-killing weapons made of Valyrian steel.

The other party was fully focused and did not notice his arrival at all.

He saw that the forging had entered the final stage, and did not disturb the other party, but observed the other party's movements with interest.

Practice makes perfect. The other party has been insisting on forging for many years, and his craftsmanship is still trustworthy. In his opinion, Del's level has touched the top level of the third level.

If he can go further, he can try to forge more sophisticated equipment. In the circle of normal people, he can be called a gifted person.

More than ten minutes later, Del stopped hammering and flicked the sword with his fingers, and the weapon made a crisp clanging sound.

He used the breathing method to inject the source of life into the weapon, and the silver sword surface lit up with golden lines.

He quickly danced a sword flower, and said narcissistically: "My skills are getting better and better."

Clown applauded at the right time and jokingly echoed: "Congratulations, Mr. Del."

Del suddenly turned around, his face turned red, and he said timidly:

"Bishop, you, why didn't you say hello when you came."

He was ashamed of what he said just now, it was a social death.

Clown laughed a few more times and said seriously:

"How many evil-killing weapons can you refine every day? Has Rubart learned to forge evil-killing weapons?"

Del smiled embarrassedly, his ability was not as good as the bishop.

"With someone else doing the other processes, I can forge a sword weapon or a hammer weapon every day, or forge a shield in three days.

Rubert has also learned to forge evil-killing weapons, but his level is a little worse than mine. The two of us can already meet the needs of Rhine City."

Klauen nodded with relief. He could leave the blacksmith shop to him without worry. He could do most of the forging work.

He changed the subject and asked:

"Are there enough refined iron ingots in the warehouse?"

He would personally use the golden light seal to dye enough iron bricks.

Del said: "The warehouse is full of materials. The output of the Hammers mining area is not enough. I contacted other mining areas to send a batch. Madam said that she wanted to speed up the construction of the castle."

"Take me to the warehouse."

The two came to the warehouse. Klauen first put away a batch of iron ingots to make room, and then released the fire cube.

All the refined iron stored in Yuling was released and cut into standard brick and stone sizes. These were all magic-breaking metals that were completely dyed with the golden light seal.

If this material is used to build a castle, evil spirits and other spirits cannot get close at all. At the same time, it also has very strong physical and elemental defense.

Yuling stored 100,000 pounds of refined iron ingots, but only a little more than one square was released, less than a thousand iron bricks, and the gap in building the main castle is still large.

However, with Crown's current ability, deliberately using the golden light seal to dye the metal is very fast.

Del and others need to dye the iron bricks one by one. Those with better skills can dye two bricks at the same time, but the spiritual light range of the golden light seal released by Crown can cover a hundred bricks, and the efficiency is incomparable.

The improvement of the level of extraordinary people not only brings an increase in strength, but also far exceeds that of ordinary people in production.

The morning passed, Crown did not care about the cost, and spent a lot of Sun Flame Liquid to release the golden light seal, completing the dyeing of about 10,000 iron bricks.

Crown nodded, these things are enough, and the main castle can be completed.

At noon, he returned to the mansion for lunch. He told Eliza:

"There are enough materials in the blacksmith shop to build the castle. In the afternoon, you can send someone to bring the materials to the castle to complete the subsequent construction."

"It was solved so quickly?"

Eliza opened her eyes wide. She knew very well how much materials a group of Dao Seed holders had accumulated in more than two months.

Crown took a sip of the red wine with the meal and smiled faintly:

"Think about how big the gap between my current strength and yours is. This little efficiency is nothing."

After lunch, Crown found a small bowl made of warm jade and poured a few drops of sun essence into it.

He picked up the bowl and went to the animal pen behind the yard. Arcturus could only stay here because of his large size.

The northern giant bear with snow-white fur stood up to the height of two normal people. The big bear lowered its head intimately, and rubbed its huge head against the owner's body.

"Open your mouth."

The big bear opened its mouth obediently, and Clown poured the sun essence into its mouth.

He wanted to use the sun essence to speed up the growth of the bear cub and let it advance to the silver level as soon as possible.

The castle was about to be built, and the defense of the city wall was too poor. He planned to use the trained animals to help patrol the castle. The big bear's strength was not enough, so it needed to be "ripened".

Arcturus swallowed the sun essence, and a psychedelic golden color flashed in his eyes, and even his fur flashed golden, like a bronze giant bear.

The vision disappeared quickly, and the big bear roared, stood up, and suddenly slammed his paw heavily on the ground.

"Bang!" There was a strong vibration on the ground, and the northern giant bear felt as if he had endless power.

Clown did not dare to feed too much sun essence at one time, and planned to feed it every few days, five drops each time.

If Arcturus advances to the silver level, it will soon enter the mature stage, and its body shape will be fixed. He needs to start making a set of armor for the northern giant bear.

He had done relevant research on this matter a long time ago, and he had a plan in mind. When the big bear's body shape was fixed, he would start to make armor.

He had already thought of the material of the armor, using hard refined gold as the main material and plating it with a layer of iron essence.

After returning to the mansion at night, Clown had dinner and began to visualize the Golden Light Mantra with his wife.

Eliza used the daytime to practice the Barbarian Bone Breathing Method. Since there was no matching secret medicine, her progress was not very fast. It would take some time to reach the standard of practicing the Silver Dragon Howling Moon.

Clown visualized the full moon shining on his body, and the room was lit up with white moonlight like water.

No words were spoken all night.

The next day, Clown's biological clock woke him up on time. When he walked out of the room, it was five o'clock in the morning, and Billy was already waiting at the door.

As a close-fitting male servant, Billy was very competent.

"Find a few guards, go to the alchemy laboratory and move out six large white jade pillars and thirty-six small white jade pillars. I'll wait for you in the yard."

"Okay, Bishop, please wait."

Crown walked into the yard. It was late autumn, and it was still dark outside at this point. He could see the holy fire lit up on the bell tower in the distance.

He closed his eyes and summoned the golden wall.

[Golden Light Spell: 238576/500000; Level 5] (Moon Soul Spirit Light Array Diagram.)

Although he had pondered it many times and the content of the array was already familiar to him, he would still take it out to review.

He found that if he put a lot of energy into something, he would have new insights after looking at it again after a while.

He didn't wait for long. Billy commanded the night watch guards to move out the cornerstones of the array and neatly stacked them next to Clown.

"Bishop, everything has been moved here. Do you have any other instructions?"

Crown closed the golden wall and opened his eyes:

"Just follow my instructions and bury these cornerstones at the designated location. There can be no mistakes in the direction."
