Chapter Forty-Six: Black Rock City
Almost all of the dozen or so people on Bal's side are rare elites, and Bart is comparable to a low-level leader, plus four level 30 minotaur strong archers, it is not too easy to kill an 18-level leader-level ice element.
Less than two minutes.
The coquettish Ice Elemental Boss turned into a cloud of ice chips.
Elemental creatures rarely drop equipment, and after the death of the Ice Elemental Boss, the materials that were dropped on the ground were collected by everyone and handed over to Baal, which was quite a lot. 35 units of Elemental Core, 43 units of Ice Crystal Fragments, and 15 units of Ice Fragments are all very rare equipment crafting materials.
Only two items were dropped.
A training book for the Guardian Warrior of the third-order regular class, and the third-level barracks can be recruited. The Guardian Warrior is a class of troops that has both offense and defense, can fight and resist, and the third-order class is initially a level 50 advanced class, which will greatly improve the strength of the second-order class, and the market price of the third-order training book must be at least more than 15,000 gold coins.
There's also a special item, which is something called the Elemental Collector, which Baal has seen for the first time.
Micro Elemental Collector (Ice)
Quality: Special
Requirements: Placed in the open air.
Conversion rate: 1 unit per 900 seconds
Effect: Harvested every 15 minutes, with a 94% chance to collect Shattered Ice Dust, 5% chance to collect Ice Crystal Fragments, and 1% chance to collect Ice Fragments.
The value of this thing is hard to say, although the collection efficiency is relatively average, and most of the collected materials are ordinary materials to break ice dust, but in the long run, it can also create good income.
Although he didn't get the energy crystals he wanted, he was quite fruitful from this trip.
Not far to the west is the territory of a level 30 monster: Earthsplitter.
The Earth Splitter Beast is three meters long, with a body that looks like a pangolin and a head that looks like a miniature version of a Triceratops, and generally lives in the surrounding areas of the Blackstone Mountains, feeding on small herbivores, and it is not difficult to kill with the strength of Baal and others.
The territory is now under John's management, and the surrounding fish-man threat has been cleared, so Baal has decided to stay here and upgrade.
......
Five days later, early in the morning.
By a small river in the southwest of the Earthbreaker's territory, Baal and his party were packing.
"My lord, it's all cleaned up." A strong archer came running up.
"Well, let's go."
The people got on their mounts and ran southeast.
There is a lot of experience in fighting monsters at the next level, and this area should not have been cleared for a long time, and the density of earth splitting beasts is very large. In a few days, everyone had already risen to level 24, and after changing into the purple Barbarian Shield, Baal's attributes had improved a lot.
This time they were going to go to Blackstone City.
The blueprint of the Barbarian King's suit obtained from the last kill of the Brute Bull Leader, after obtaining the Elemental Core and Ice Spirit Fragments, there are still two materials left to refine the two materials of Hematite and Purple Heart Copper, which can be crafted. Baal is still wearing a level 10 guardian suit now, and his attributes are really a little unsatisfactory.
Refined hematite can be refined from hematite, which is an associated ore of iron ore.
Hailan Village has a medium-sized iron mine, and it is believed that after a period of mining, a sufficient amount of hematite can be obtained, and now only Purple Heart Copper is left.
The Blackstone Corridor is the largest trading hub in the southern part of the Orc Empire, and most of these transactions take place in Blackstone City.
The city has all kinds of supplies, and Baal plans to go there to buy some purple copper, and by the way, buy some blueprints for the production suit. Now Hailan Village can be said to be full of talents, but with the increase in personnel, the supply of this equipment has become a problem. The level of everyone increases quickly, and the professions are also varied, and the equipment is updated frequently, which is very cumbersome to build.
In this case, the all-class universal and upgradable production set is the first choice. Although there are already blueprints for the Barbarian King's suit, there are too many rare materials needed to create the purple suit, and only a few elites can be equipped for a while, so Baal plans to buy a few blue or green production suit crafting blueprints to equip the guards in the village.
......
The outline of a castle appeared on the horizon ahead, and the gray-white walls stretched as far as the eye could see.
"My lord, this is Black Rock City, it's too big." The minotaur guard next to him looked amazed.
"It's spectacular." Lilith chimed in.
As the distance got closer, a huge city slowly appeared in front of everyone.
As a trading hub between humans and beasts, Blackstone City is more of a huge trading market than a city. Compared to Fury City, the walls here are much shorter, but if you compare the area of space, Fury City can't catch up.
Located on the east coast of the Red Sea, Black Rock is more than 300 kilometers long from north to south and 40 kilometers wide from east to west. Not only is it the largest trading city in the southern part of the Orc Empire, but it is also home to Blackstone Harbor, the largest port in the Orc Empire.
There are a total of eight gates in the north and south of Blackstone City, the four in the south belong to the Kingdom of Banya, and the four in the north are controlled by the Orc Empire.
In the face of huge interests, even racial hatred has to make concessions. On the surface, the human and beast races maintain relative peace here, but secretly the two sides are not so polite, and it is common to kill people and rob people, and to seek money and kill people.
The city's population is very mobile and difficult to manage. A large number of killers, wanted criminals and other vicious characters gather here, and even the mountain bandits of the Black Rock Mountains will come here to sell the looted goods, and the smell of blood is thick behind the prosperity.
There was a great flow of people at the city gates, and there were people of all races. A swamp fishman in front of the left, with a lot of guards, swaggered in.
The swamp fish-man is a branch of the fish-man with higher intelligence, and it can be regarded as an intelligent creature, but the problem is that the fish-man is not recognized as a member of the intelligent race now, and if it had been left somewhere else, I am afraid it would have been slaughtered a long time ago.
There are also races that even Barr can't name.
For example, the old man next to him, wearing a black cloak, floating in mid-air, covered in black mist, only the position of his two eyes flashed red, and he escaped a midnight ghost.
"My lord, this place is really prosperous, if only our territory could have this kind of scene in the future." The minotaur guard beside Baal looked envious, "That minotaur brother at the door is really majestic, the armor is so handsome, my lord, why don't you spend money to buy a set." ”
"Ahem, ahem..."
Glancing at the seventh-order elite standing on the left side of the city gate, Balkan coughed twice, "Don't be too ambitious, let alone judge people by their appearance." ”
"Your Excellency, you're right."
The Minotaur guard nodded solemnly.
"Let's go, let's go into town."
They gathered up their mounts and marched into the city.
After the enclosure is established, an exclusive mount space will be automatically formed, and as long as you sign a contract with the mount, you can summon and put it in from the space at any time, which is very convenient.
Black Rock is a huge city, and its streets are several times wider than those of ordinary cities, and every street and building here is built for commerce. Even with such a large area, the population density in the city is still very large, and it is conceivable that the population of this city must be as high as 10 million.
There were many people coming and going on the streets, both humans and orcs, and some races that could not be named. However, at night, it is difficult to see humans in the northern city. Here, as long as it is not in broad daylight, the orc guards will not be idle to protect the safety of humans, and the southern city is naturally the same.
"That's it." Barr looked at the inn in front of him.
It can be chaotic at night, so it's best to book in advance.
The name of the inn is Barbratot, which is the language of ancient magical civilizations, meaning peace. In his previous life, Baal was very interested in the things of magical civilization, and he studied them carefully for a while, and it was still possible to recognize a word.
There are two huge magic lamps hanging in front of the store, the store is very large, and there is a commotion inside, and the sound of laughter and scolding is heard from time to time. It's a good thing that it's popular, which means it's not a black store.
"Welcome!" There are two cat people and girls standing next to the door, with beautiful appearances, generous manners, and very temperamental.
Barr bowed slightly and walked into the store.
A cat man waiter ran over with a smile on his face, "A few guests, are you eating or staying at the hotel?" ”
