Chapter 4: Orichalcum

The construction of the camp was progressing steadily, and the mixed team of knights and hunters who were patrolling outside also made a surprising discovery.

In the hills at the foot of the verdant peaks to the north, they found a copper-yellow ore.

"Take me there. ”

Lin Xiao was overjoyed, and without saying a word, under the leadership of the knight who came to report, he quickly rushed there.

"Your Excellency, please look. ”

The first tall, serious-looking knight stepped forward, his name was Carter, the strongest among the knights, and was designated by Lin Xiao as the captain of the knight team.

In his hand, it was a piece of ore with a coppery yellow color.

"Orichalcum!"

Lin Xiao must be in his heart, this is the same as what he remembers.

This is a special metal with a high affinity for various energies, and can be used to craft weapons and armor and even alchemical weapons.

On top of that, this metal can carve runes and become runic weapons, making it even more powerful.

With such a big killer, Lin Xiao has enough capital to face the test later.

At this time, the construction of the camp was nearing completion, and all the miners were idle, and after Lin Xiao was ready to go back, he immediately arranged for mining, and by the way, determined the abundance of mineral deposits.

"Carter, you're doing a great job. ”

Lin Xiao is not stingy with praise.

Although he knew that there was a mountain copper mine on this island, he didn't know the location, and he thought that it would be difficult to find it in ten days and a half months, but he didn't expect it to arrive the next day, which was completely beyond his imagination.

This is inseparable from the due diligence of the patrol team.

Although these lords are all initial resources, they are all living people, and they also have personalities and abilities.

Their level of loyalty and faith to their territory and lord is also not static.

If the territory has been unable to make ends meet, it is difficult to maintain, and the lord wantonly oppresses the people, even if it is possible, even if it escapes.

Only when the development of the territory is thriving, everyone has hope, and the lord is wise and powerful, will the people become more loyal to the lord.

More importantly, after becoming an official lord through the lord's selection, the degree of loyalty and belief of the lord to the territory and the lord is closely related to the development and growth of the territory and the cultivation of the lord himself.

Some lords who don't care about the feelings of the people, even if they are lucky enough to pass the selection, will be left far behind by others.

Opposite.

If the people are fanatical in worshipping the lord and loyal to the territory, they will develop much faster than others.

Only a lord like Lin Xiao, who has been crawling in the Star Domain World for decades, will deeply understand this.

......

Back to camp.

Lin Xiao immediately organized the miner team and let them go to mine the mountain copper mine under the leadership of the accompanying knights.

Then, he called the two alchemists who were perfecting the alchemy workshop in the camp: "Campbell, Gary, the patrol has found the alchelica mine, what weapons can you make?"

Campbell was more skilled among the two alchemists, and was designated by Lin Xiao as the captain of the Xianhe Leader Alchemist team, and Gary was the vice captain.

The same is true for mages, runemasters, alchemists, and animal tamers.

Although there are only two of them, determining the rank is not only beneficial to the management of the territory's personnel, but also makes the people more motivated.

As long as you do a good job, maybe you will be the regiment commander, the regiment commander, the commander, and even the enshriner and chief in the future.

You must know that the territory will not be static, and if you want to grow and develop, there will always be more people to join, and if you don't subtly implement the hierarchy from the beginning, it will not be conducive to subsequent development.

It is not unreasonable that those in power always like to divide into classes.

Campbell, the leader of the alchemist team, was overjoyed when he heard this: "I have mastered the method of refining the flame sword and the alchemy cannon, and Gary has mastered the method of refining the bronze scale armor, as long as the rune master engages the flame rune, the sharp rune and the solid rune respectively, it can become a powerful rune weapon." ”

They are alchemists, and without materials, even if they build an alchemy workshop, it will be an empty shelf, and now with materials, they can reflect their own value.

They also know that the territory is just starting out, and only then can they perform better, so that they can rise faster and be valued by their lords. Otherwise, when the territory grows and grows, and more powerful alchemists join, they will be invisible to everyone and become inconspicuous.

I have to say that the quality of the people provided by the Star World is extremely high.

And Lin Xiao also knew that these initial leaders should not be looked down upon, but they all have great growth potential, and each of them is very precious.

It would be a pity if some lords did not cherish it and died some.

Returning to the rune weapon, Lin Xiao was not carried away by Campbell's words, but asked cautiously:

"What about yield and cycle time?"

"The main loss of the flame sword and the bronze scale armor is in the rune carving stage, and the yield is about seventy percent, and if you simply refine it, you can create a set in one day. As for the alchemy cannon, the refining cycle takes more than a week, and the yield of the carved runes is much lower. Campbell said.

After thinking about it, he added again: "My lord, if you refine the alchemy cannon, you also have to consider the ammunition, the ammunition needs to be engraved with burst runes, and the yield is even lower. ”

Lin Xiao pondered for a moment, and then made a decision: "In this way, you will first refine according to the plan of twenty-five sets of weapons and armor, five alchemy cannons and supporting ammunition, and each completed one will be handed over to the rune master to carve the rune." ”

"Yes, my lord. ”

Lin Xiao also knew that it was difficult to refine rune alchemy weapons, and he didn't know whether he could finish refining them before that test came.

After arranging the work of the alchemy workshop, Lin Xiao hurried to the farmland area non-stop.

This is the area he personally planned, with a total of ten acres of Seven Star Valley.

At this time, small seedlings have emerged in the farmland, a green patch, which is also dotted with a little starlight, which is extremely beautiful and dreamy.

Lin Xiao called Gadlin, the leader of the mage squad who was using the Spirit Gathering Staff to gather free energy, and asked, "According to this growth, when will the Seven Star Valley be able to mature?"

Gardlin wore a mage robe, performed an elegant etiquette, and said with joy on his face: "Lord Lord, this Spirit Gathering Staff is amazing, it is simply tailor-made for the Seven Star Valley, and it will grow into a seedling the next day, I deduce that if it continues like this, it will mature in less than ten days." ”

"So fast?"

It seems that the information obtained in the previous life is not accurate, the normal growth rate of the Seven Star Valley is three months, and now under the spirit gathering staff, it has been shortened by nine times.

His eyes couldn't help but look at the gray wooden staff in Gadlin's hand, and his eyes were thoughtful.

'Could it be that this thing isn't just about gathering free energy?'

Lin Xiao just thought about it and left it behind, he has no cultivation now, even if he wants to figure it out, there is no way, since it is a good thing, why bother with the cause.

Thinking of this, he gave a few words of encouragement to the mage squad leader he had appointed, and left.

Next, he went to the medicine garden and the animal training zoo again, and the feedback he got was mostly negative.

The first is the flame mushroom.

Now that the Seven Star Valley is not mature, it can only be cultivated with rotten wood chips first, plus there are only two mages, and the casting time is small, and the spirit gathering staff is basically used in the Seven Star Valley, so the growth rate is slow.

The red feather eagle cubs are fine, although they eat more than adults in ordinary food, but there are only a dozen of them, and the territory can afford it for the time being.

As long as the flame mushroom matures and is refined into a potion, it is enough to feed.

In general, everything in the territory is going in the direction he envisioned.
