What old Kuru had been worried about now happened.

The lich in the forest behind the Death Swamp built the Bone Gate to the Underworld, and a large number of undead creatures entered the Pai Plateau of the Roland Continent through the Bone Gate.

The magic metal market on the side of the Grimm Empire is quite stable, and the price of the Grimm Empire's Mithril metal has soared due to the occupation of the five largest Mithril mines in Angela by the Nakma people, and the price of Mithril once caught up with the silver and pure gold, and now with His Royal Highness Prince Charles leading the Constructed Knights of the Royal Construct Knights to recover the five large open-air Mithril mines on Angelado, the purchase has restored the business order of the magic metal market.

Mithril is widely used in the Grimm Empire on a variety of primary magic rune plates and magic items, mainly because Mithril has good magic conductivity, and the current metallurgical process of the Grimm Empire can do silver plating on some metal plates, this hot plating process can make the layer of Mithril on the metal plate as thin as a hair, thus greatly reducing the production cost of the primary blank magic rune plate.

The Babington family has been monopolizing the market for the blank Mithril magic rune plates of the Grimm Empire in San Carlos City, and a large number of Mithril rune plates are produced from the workshops in San Carlos City, and are continuously shipped to various regions of the Grimm Empire, and then the inscriptionists around the country give these blank rune plates new magical properties, and many old magic product workshops have close ties with the local inscription masters' union, and they buy some finished magic rune plates from the inscription masters to make some magic items.

I still remember the first time I saw this kind of rune plate magic item was in Kig's magic caravan, when Qige's magic caravan had a bathroom built with 'water gathering' rune plates, and Sister Singh took me to take a bath in that bathroom, when I saw countless water droplets gathered out of the water collection funnel, I felt that the magic was so magical.

In retrospect, that bathroom was just one of the necessary amenities on the larger caravans, which now include simple kitchens, and some even have exhaust fans in the vents on the roof of the shed to keep the air in the car.

In the Grimm Empire, the Mithril Rune Board belongs to the low-end magic rune board, and most of the primary magic rune plates are drawn from the Mithril Blank Rune Board, so in the Grimm Empire's magic metal market, the magic metal with the largest transaction volume is not magic red copper and magic black iron, but Mithril.

Mithril has some divine magical attributes, so Mithril has the effect of restraining undead creatures, which does not mean that undead creatures will die directly when they come into contact with Mithril, but that a trace of holy light contained in Mithril has some corrosive effects on undead creatures. For undead creatures, Mithril is like a chronic poison, and the soul fire of undead creatures who have been exposed to Mithril for a long time will slowly be extinguished under the evolution of the Holy Light.

The orc tribe against the undead army, of course, the first choice is a magic weapon mixed with some Mithril, so the Orc tribe's demand for Mithril has increased suddenly, and the orcs in Guruding Town have proposed to Marven the last few transactions, and it is understandable that they need to provide some Mithril here.

"Did the orcs offer to buy some magic weapons or metal armor mixed with Mithril? The magic weapons made in the magic workshops here in the empire are still very good. I asked Marven.

Marven shook his head and only said one word, 'expensive'.

For the tribal orcs, the items in the Grimm Empire are still a bit expensive, and the weapons used by humans are basically very light, such as some blunt weapons such as hammers and clubs, and the orcs prefer to be made by dwarves.

However, in terms of the price of Mithril in the magic metal market alone, the Grimm Empire is relatively low, so the orcs want to purchase some Mithril on the Empire's side.

I looked up, glanced at Betty standing behind me, and said to her, "A few more orders for North Duisburg, and three more batches of Jackbow Arrows for their side." ”

There is an order for the blacksmith workshop in North Duisburg, and the contract has always been signed on Arya's side.

The base materials of the crossbow arrows and rune plates are transported to the Valley of the Willows through Arya's warehouse, where they are printed into copper rune plates and arrows of the Magic Seals in the Valley of the Willows, and the discarded rune plates are reheated in the Blacksmith Workshop in North Duisburg. The printed magic rune board will be sent to Murray's workshop in charge of assembling the rune board, and the normal crossbow arrows and single-attribute crossbow arrows will be left in Arya's warehouse, and then the normal crossbow arrows will be sold by Arya to the arms dealers of the Marquis Hasrabha. The single-attribute giant crossbow arrows will be given priority to the South Wind Legion, but the recent batches of single-attribute giant crossbow arrows have been sold to the other general star in the imperial capital, the Marquis of Moxiang, to repay the debts brought by the kryptonite gold.

Betty came down the stairs when Marvin and I started talking about the orc tribe.

Arya is still upstairs to check the accounts of the comptoir for this quarter, usually the accounts in the comptoir are checked by Betty, and only at the end of each quarter, Arya will personally check it.

"Master, do you want anything else?" asked Arya's personal maid to me.

Senior Vernon, who was sitting next to me, glanced at me, his Adam's apple moved, but he couldn't help but speak.

I coughed lightly, and then continued to Betty, "There is still a large number of moonblade axes in the warehouse that have been collected from the Nibru spiders, so let Murray's Rune Workshop find a way to coat the blade with a layer of Mithril on the axe, and try to make a batch of this magic airship before it returns, and make sure that these weapons are delivered to Gruudin as soon as possible." In addition, this batch of canned luncheon meat and meat floss bricks will be transported to the warehouse there as soon as possible, and all these materials do not need to be sold to the outside world, and all of them are hoarded. ”

Originally, I wanted to tell Betty to buy a batch of wheat flour, but seeing that Senior Vernon's expression was about to explode, I still thought that I would go back and hand over the purchase list to Alya.

The next plan is to wait for me to return to the Hiero Plane, and then I will take the Constructed Knights of the Borean Legion to the swampy sea on the southern edge of the Black Forest, where we will join forces with the War Trees of the Hiero Plane to fight a large-scale battle with the Nibru spiders.

I patted my forehead and instructed Betty, "Prepare another magic caravan for me, and I'll go to the Imperial Capital Magic Research Institute later." ”

"Okay, master. Betty lifted the corner of her skirt with one hand and bowed to me.

provoked Senior Vernon to look deeply at me again.

I said to Marven: "Let's see if we can contact the airport side, we are renting two magic airships, our current capacity is still a bit weak, so we can ensure that these supplies are sent as soon as possible, and then bring back some more magic herbs from the orc tribe." ”

Marven took a slight sip of black tea, and he looked like he was drinking golden cider. His expression was a little strange, he squinted his eyes and said, "Hey, Jijia, how do I feel as if the Grimm Empire has suffered a scourge of the undead, oh no! I understand your character, even if there is an undead legion in a border region of the Grimm Empire, it probably won't be so positive, maybe only the undead appear in the north, you will have such a move!"

In my heart, I didn't think there was any difference between the northern realm and the Pai plateau, so I said to Marven: "The plateau is also the northern realm, if you think about it carefully, once those undead armies occupy the town of Guruddin and walk down the road of death, it will take less than a month to reach the city of El, do you think our methods of dealing with the barbarians in the city of Ell will be useful to deal with the army of the undead?"

Marven laughed and said to me, "You're a little ahead of your time, but it's right to think about it, I can understand your feelings, most of your followers and followers are from the Pai Plateau. ”

I didn't wait for Arya to finish checking the accounts of the comptoir, so I took Arya's magic caravan, and left the comptoir with Senior Vernon and rushed directly to the Imperial Capital Magic Research Institute, Senior Vernon sat in the magic caravan, still digesting some of the information he had just learned, he sat on the soft leather sofa opposite me, looking at the gorgeous decoration inside the magic caravan, some exquisite food and drinks on the table in the car, and took a few deep breaths to calm down a little.

Senior Vernon's expression was a little complicated, and he said to me, "That business house belongs to Mr. Qige, right?"

Qige almost monopolized the business with the orc tribe on the side of the imperial capital, which is a well-known thing.

"Well, let me take care of it before Kig returns to Etheia. I said.

Senior Vernon crossed his fingers with his hands, rested his chin on the back of his hand, and said to me, "So, you have been helping His Highness Qige take care of the business in the trading house here in the imperial capital?"

"That's right. I nodded in acknowledgement.

Senior Vernon continued to ask, "So what will be your future career?"

I scratched my head, thinking to myself if this business was my business? The answer was no, it was Kige's.

So I said, "Not exactly, you know that I am an inscription master, and there is a rune board workshop here in the imperial capital. ”

Actually, I really wanted to tell Senior Vernon that my rune board workshop here in the imperial capital is also very profitable, but I think it would be better to be tactful, so I didn't say how my rune board workshop business is.

I didn't expect Senior Vernon to be directly wrong, thinking that maybe it was because my rune board workshop business was sluggish, so I didn't continue to talk about it.

Senior Vernon was also worried that it would be embarrassing to continue, so he said in a loud voice: "I know, due to the impact of the new rune board, the business of the rune board workshop has been very depressed recently, and even the rune board workshop of Ivan and Diego is about to be unsustainable, and it is normal for your rune board workshop to have a bad business, but fortunately, you have a business on the side of the trading house, and you should be able to survive, but I think that in fact, you should try to make some fishskin hoods, that thing is the most profitable." ”

"......" I was a little speechless, thinking about whether I should tell Senior Vernon that my rune board workshop business is actually very good.

But seeing that he was immersed in his own thoughts, he didn't say anything more.

Senior Vernon's expression was a little serious, and he said to me: "Jijia, I want to try to find something to do, but it's not easy to do anything now, the plane war has messed up the economy of the Grimm Empire, magic herbs are hard to buy now, and the magic potion shops in the imperial capital can only be struggling to maintain, and now it looks like the hottest thing in the Grimm Empire this summer is life magic items, Noah and I have already thought about it, if' Once the magic oven of the lava surge is successful, try to make this kind of oven, would you like to join us?"

Noah mentioned this to me a lot, but I didn't have the energy to do it with them, so I kept dragging it out without a clear answer.

"I can't get out of my ...... just yet," I said to Senior Vernon.

Senior Vernon gave me a clear expression, and said in a slightly emotional tone: "Sure enough, it's the same as Noah, okay, if you change your mind, you can join us at any time." ”

"Yes!" I said, nodding.

On a whim, Senior Vernon couldn't wait to go back to the academy to discuss the magic oven with Noah.

At this time, the magic caravan had turned to Yulin Street, from the Qige Trading House on the side of the seventh block to the Magic Research Institute in the Tower of Pride, passing through the Royal Academy of Magic, so the magic caravan stopped at the door when it passed the Royal Academy of Magic.

Before getting out of the car, Senior Vernon reached out and patted me on the shoulder, smiled at me and said, "Thank you for taking me out for a walk, I will try it as you say, maybe life is really different." ”

Seeing that he jumped out of the magic caravan with agility and ran into the Royal Academy of Magic in three steps and two steps, his steps became much lighter, I think Senior Vernon must be right to find something, but......

“...... What did I say?" I asked myself, sitting in the car.

On the first floor of the Tower of Pride, I bought ten Mithril Bars from a trading house that specialized in magical metals, each weighing about five pounds, and I didn't bargain much, and now the price of Mithril is almost completely transparent, and the magic merchants know that raising their prices means turning away business.

When I came to the Imperial Capital Magic Research Institute, I didn't rush to see Scholar Yerkes, but went directly to the Alchemy Department to find Scholar Francis and asked him to prepare some Mithril solutions, which will be brought into the Magic Seal Workshop in Xinliu Valley, and I am going to use Mithril to print the magic patterns on the next batch of giant crossbow arrows.

Scholar Francis was a little busy, and he agreed without asking why.
