"Your Majesty, if all the remaining hematite ingots in our hands are used to craft Demon Breaking Feather Arrows and Demon Breaking Crossbow Arrows, we should be able to create 20 million pieces, and according to the consumption of today's battle, we can probably support another 20 battles, if the army of the undead no longer plays any new tricks. ”

A master Grey-Eared Craftsman explained to Qin Ge with a wry smile that the overwhelming army of the undead had made even the arrogant Grey-Eared feel the pressure.

Qin Ge looked at the sky furnace in front of him, which had risen to level 4, the height had reached 30 meters, and there was no thick smoke billowing on it, it was the same as the blast furnace on the earth, but it could refine 30,000 kilograms of steel every day.

"What about the crossbows and feather arrows made of stainless steel, can they be supplied normally?"

Qin Ge asked again, the previous battle had indeed consumed all the Demon Breaking Crossbow Arrows and Demon Breaking Feather Arrows, but the effect was also excellent, at least even those weakest human archers, human crossbowmen had more or less risen to level 15 to 18, which was considered to have a certain amount of combat power.

As for the Grey-Eared Heavy Crossbowmen, due to some interests that are tilted, the 40,000 heavy crossbowmen in the Fire of Life Kingdom are now at the lowest level of 30, about 20,000.

The remaining 20,000 people are all above level 55, and there is even a level 60 horror existence.

In short, counting Blue Flame's sniper battalion, Mountain Eagle's ranger battalion, as well as the gray-eared crossbowmen, the crossbowmen in Dewey's heavy infantry battalion, the crossbowmen in Liu Cheng's hands, the crossbowmen guarding important buildings in the royal city, and the 100,000 human archers and 50,000 human crossbowmen, Qin Ge has a total of nearly 200,000 crossbow troops.

These crossbow troops were also his greatest support for defeating the Sea of Undead Skeletons twice in a row.

However, the consumption of crossbow arrows and feathered arrows is also the biggest problem.

"Of course, Your Majesty, our reserves of steel crossbows and feathered arrows can allow us to fight a hundred wars of the scale of the previous one, but again, we no longer have aquamarine, even if we count the azurite produced in the cemetery, but this is all we have. ”

The master craftsman said distressedly: "With all due respect, Your Majesty, you shouldn't have given that woman the power to manage the human camp in the first place, she recruited so many low-strength human soldiers in one go and consumed a large amount of aquamarine, and now she is still responsible for their daily food supply, if you don't think about it, the kingdom will go bankrupt." ”

Hearing this, Qin Ge smiled bitterly, he was also very helpless, who would have thought that Lu Xiaoxi, a level 27 assassin, had killed so many people, and only to be frightened when he saw the skeletons of the army of the undead? So he recruited 150,000 human soldiers at once, although it was said that the recruitment ratio was one to ten with the Gray Ear people, but that also consumed fifteen thousand blue crystals.

Sure enough, that quote was correct.

So what to do now? The emergence of the army of the undead makes it very likely that the virus will not appear again, without the virus there will be no aquamarine, without aquamarine there will be no soldiers, without aquamarine there will be no soldiers, and without aquamarine, there will be no ore, and without ore there will be no weapons.

It really feels like I'm going bankrupt.

"Hey, my lord, can you give me this scrap iron ingot, I still have to use it to rebuild the weapon!"

At this time, a craftsman apprentice who had been transferred from heavy infantry asked cautiously to Zhao Xin behind Qin Ge.

During the previous battle, Qin Ge called Zhao Xin, who was in retreat, back, and after the battle, he was haunted by things in his head, so he forgot to let Zhao Xin go back to continue his retreat.

At this time, Qin Ge looked back, but saw Zhao Xin, who was cold and arrogant, with an invisible sword aura lingering all over his body, picking up a square scrap iron ingot and playing with it curiously.

"Wait, is that the Hematite Demon Breaker Arrow that was recovered from the battlefield reforged?"

Qin Ge asked curiously.

"Yes, Your Majesty, these red iron demon breaking arrows can basically only be used once, otherwise it will affect the accuracy of the archer, so they can only be reforged, but after reforging, that demon-breaking effect disappears, which is really a strange thing, but if the long sword, long knife, spear and shield made of hematite ingots are basically not this problem. ”

Qin Ge nodded, his biggest headache was this matter, the hematite ingot was very effective in restraining the undead, even a human level 9 archer could shoot more powerful undead with a demon-breaking arrow.

"Zhao Xin, do you like this scrap iron ingot, take it if you like. ”

Qin Ge said to Zhao Xin, because he felt that Zhao Xin's body and consciousness still had the curiosity of a little boy, so of course he tried his best to be satisfied.

Zhao Xin didn't answer, just continued to stand there and grab the scrap iron ingot.

Qin Ge was not in a hurry, he just watched quietly, and then after a few minutes, Zhao Xin threw away the scrap iron ingot, turned around and looked up at Qin Ge, just this look, Qin Ge was stunned, because Zhao Xin's originally frosty and cold eyes were actually a little more relaxed at this moment, and there was also a little more agility and human emotion.

Then as soon as Zhao Xin spoke, even his voice became much softer.

"Your Majesty, I feel better. ”

"Huh?"

Qin Ge was surprised, because he knew very well what a low-level immortal cultivator was and what a killing weapon was.

When Xiao Qi set it up, he said that they sacrificed the characteristics and advantages of many immortal cultivators, and only focused everything on attack, so once it becomes a killing weapon, then only recognize the order, not others, and even in the end, this killing weapon will self-destruct, and the sword qi will explode or something, because this is an existence that heaven and earth cannot tolerate.

But who would have thought that in the past few minutes, Zhao Xin's condition has actually improved a lot.

What happened?

Before Qin Ge could figure it out, the master craftsman had already taken a step forward, picking up the scrap iron ingot that Zhao Xin had thrown away like crazy, and his beard trembled with excitement.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! It's incredible, this was originally a scrap iron ingot, but since this lord picked it up and threw it away, the demon-breaking effect on it has reappeared. ”

"How do you know for sure?"

"Your Majesty, look!"

The master craftsman lifted up a small tool in his hand, on which was a jewel, which was now glittering.

"Your Majesty, the Demon Breaking value has already exceeded 5! You must know that the Hematite Ingot we dug from that mine before has a Demon Breaking Value of only 3.5!"

Qin Ge was also stunned, looked at Zhao Xin, who seemed to have become a normal person, and asked curiously,

"What did you just do with that scrap iron ingot?"

"Your Majesty, I don't really understand, I just feel a lot of cold and terrible power emanating from my body, and I don't know what I've done?" Zhao Xin hesitated.

So Qin Ge didn't say a word, and immediately picked up a piece of scrap iron ingot and gave it to Zhao Xin.

"Try again! Think back to that feeling. ”

This time, Zhao Xin closed his eyes and held the scrap iron ingot in both hands, and after a while, a light suddenly lit up on the scrap iron ingot, and the sword qi was released.

"Stop!"

Qin Ge shouted, he already understood what was going on, it turned out that the so-called demon-breaking effect was sword qi!

"Your Majesty, the Demon Breaking Stats are already over 25! I, I don't even dare to get close. ”

In the distance, a group of old craftsmen shouted in fuss.

Qin Ge is in a good mood, nonsense, such a terrifying sword qi, if you are going to get closer, won't it be torn to pieces.

Well, it works, it makes sense.

That mine, which was like a big sword, was indeed used to seal the hell of the undead, but the essence of the seal was not the material of hematite, but the sword qi contained in this material.

However, there is a question here, why can the big sword that can seal the undead civilization be chiseled down by the miners, and why are the miners not injured by the sword qi when they are chiseled?

"Perhaps, it's because it's been too long, or perhaps, this big sword wasn't originally a creation of this world, didn't that Deng Wujia say it? This sword came from outside the sky, and even the predecessor of the Gale King City, the Black Eye Temple, also came from outside the sky, so the seal is estimated to have been dilapidated, and the miner's excavation was the last straw that broke the camel's back. ”

"After all, at that time, the hematite ingots mined at that time only had a demon-breaking value of 3.5, and ordinary people would not have any problems even if they came into direct contact. ”

Qin Ge was thinking about it, and Zhao Xin over there also threw away the scrap iron ingot with an innocent expression, and in an instant, the light on it disappeared, and the sword qi also disappeared, as if nothing had happened, but immediately more than a dozen master craftsmen rushed over regardless of their faces, scrambling like crazy.

"Stop! It's all quiet. ”

Qin Ge had to separate them personally, and these old men were still shouting to themselves what kind of divine weapons, what kind of sharp weapons, etc., which made him very suspicious, dignified and gray-eared civilization, as for this?

"Zhao Xin, what new discoveries have you made?"

"Your Majesty, this scrap iron ingot can store the sword qi that I have crossed over, and can form a wonderful high-pressure state, I don't quite understand, but what they just said about the Demon Breaking Value is very interesting, it seems to be not much different from the internal sword qi compression multiple. For example, the high pressure multiple of the sword qi in this scrap iron ingot is just a little more than 25 times. In other words, there is 25 times the high-pressure sword qi in it, which is really amazing, Your Majesty, can I go back to retreat? I feel that I can create a stronger skill on my own. ”

Zhao Xin became extraordinarily lively, already a bit like the little boy he used to be, was it because the excess sword qi generated in his body was safely released?

"Well, yes, bring a few more scrap iron ingots like this. ”

Of course, Qin Ge agreed, and his mood was completely heaven and earth, because he was tantamount to cracking the secret of the demon-breaking effect of the hematite ingot.

Well, it's actually a high-pressure sword qi, can a high-pressure sword qi break the demon? No, no, no, it's not a demon-breaking, in fact, the high-pressure sword qi can break everything, the difference is only in how big is this compression multiple!

"So, this sealed undead civilization is actually related to the immortal cultivation civilization?"

Qin Ge fell into thought, but before he could think for a few seconds, a gray owl scout suddenly flew by.

"Your Majesty, in an emergency, when we were patrolling three hundred kilometers away, we found a gray lord knight who went to Kunlun City to escort friendly troops, he walked all the way back, saying that he had important information to report to Your Majesty!"
