Chapter Forty-Eight: Upgrading the Blacksmith's Room

After devouring the dragonfly monster's body, Rooney felt that the energy in his whole body had been replenished, and the excess energy was also used by him to strengthen his body. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

I also learned new skills from the dragonfly monster, insect ossification and insect wings, but unfortunately I didn't get the venom ability of the insect type.

This way Rooney has two pairs of wings to choose from.

A pair of carrion bone wings with faster linear speed, and a pair of insect wings with flexible flight movements.

Insect ossification can only be applied to insect wings, and other ghoul muscles cannot be used, which is a small regret for Rooney.

Otherwise, he would have two layers of protection, and the average captain level would not be able to hurt him at all.

In addition to harvesting the abilities of the enemy, Rooney also harvested a lot of common information about insect monsters, and when he encountered insect monsters in the future, Rooney could have a general understanding of the other party in advance.

In addition, Rooney already vaguely felt that he was about to break through the level, as long as there was another dragonfly monster-level monster, then he could be upgraded to the ninth level of the captain.

Today's battle also taught Rooney a lot, the first time he intersected with death so closely, if it weren't for the dragonfly monster who only sawed off his arm, then he might have lost this guy who was seven levels lower than himself today.

Rooney cautioned himself to be more cautious in the battles ahead.

After simply adapting to the new ability, Rooney doesn't plan to find another enemy to fight, and he has a good harvest in today's battle, so he has to go back and absorb and consolidate it.

When Rooney returned to the dungeon, Rooney's work efficiency surprised Rooney.

Thanks to the efforts of the skeletal laborers captured by the succubus banshee, a total of thirty traps from the old and new productions were all installed.

The mining team led by the cheap bones also brought back the iron ore in a steady stream, and the blacksmiths have been working hard without stopping.

The basic dungeon defense trap is already in place, and Rooney and Sanxiao have discussed, and the next step should be to upgrade the equipment of the blacksmith room in order to start building more advanced things.

A large amount of iron ore needed to upgrade the blacksmith house has been prepared, but the large amount of coking ore needed to smelt iron ore is insufficient.

There was no coal mine around the foundation site of the underground palace that Rooney had chosen, and it seemed that Rooney, as the big boss of the underground palace, had to go out to find the iron ore himself.

Who let him not have subordinates who can prospect for mines, and he is so versatile.

There are no coal mines in the entire A1 area, but several coal mines have been found in the A2 area.

The level of monsters in the A2 area is higher than that in the A1 area, and the firepower of the security team brought by the cheap bones to mine can't keep up.

For now, both the Skeleton Warrior and the Skeleton Mage can eat in these areas, so Rooney calls the Succubus Banshee back and asks her to take the Cheap Bones with them to pick up the satisfied Skeleton Warrior and Skeleton Mage's men.

The number was increased to fifty, so that the cheap bones could dig up the coal mine in a mighty way.

The Succubus Banshee and the Cheap Bone are both winged subordinates, and they go out in a straight line to take a shortcut, and they quickly complete the team.

While they were looking for his men, Rooney personally took the original security team out to catch the skeleton horses.

With the Blacksmith's Room, the two-headed skeleton carriage can now be upgraded to a four-headed skeleton carriage, and the transportation capacity is even higher.

And long-distance transportation, waste so much manpower and material resources, Rooney doesn't want to get such a car of coal at once.

So the captured skeleton horses were used to build a few more carriages.

Now Rooney had eight or four wagons, each of which could transport four or five tons of coal, and the coal he brought back from four trucks at a time was enough for him to squander for a while.

The construction of the entire underground palace was in full swing, and at this time Rooney remembered another high-level subordinate, Xiao Shake.

This guy was arranged to guard three ghost wolves before, but now that the ghost wolves have been imprisoned in an iron grinding cage, he is not afraid that they will easily run away, and this guy is now idle and soaks in the blood pool all day long.

The skeleton-type thugs all do security work, and the succubus banshee's banshee-type thugs are all sent out to explore, so the defense of the dungeon is insufficient.

Although the zombie-type monster has limited mobility, it is very suitable for fixed-point protection.

Not to mention the defense of the dungeon, it can also provide the defense of the external mines.

Once the mine is excavated, I don't know which monsters like minerals come to steal the mine, and even some monsters may endanger the safety of the mining area, so it is necessary to send troops to defend at a fixed point.

Rooney called Xiao Xiao out of the pool of blood and asked him to go out and pick carrion-type thugs by himself, the quota was one hundred, of which fifty guarded the dungeon, and the other fifty were sent to guard the mines, and each mine had at least ten carrion-type thugs to take care of them.

Even the most basic defensive arrangements were a big headache for Rooney, and he had to get more food to feed these guys.

Originally, the food production capacity of the dungeon was not strong enough, but now that so many units have suddenly been added, food production can be regarded as a collapse.

Rooney asked the three elementary schools to upgrade the blacksmith room and expand the underground farm a little.

Then suspend the mining plan first, and let Cheap Bone and Xiaoya lead all their subordinates out to catch sarcoma beasts and ground thorn grass.

After the entire above- and underground farms were filled with these things, the grain production line was barely restored.

It seems that after the blacksmith room is upgraded, the laboratory will be put on the agenda as planned.

Rooney intends to modify sarcomatmon to increase their production capacity so that he can provide more food in the same breeding space.

Otherwise, if the team expands in the future, his dungeon will become a decorative building on the farm.

The tasks assigned to each person were completed quickly and in just two days.

With food on the table, coal mines digging up, and the blacksmith house halfway through the upgrade, Rooney has something new to think about.

That is the question of the strength of several of his senior subordinates.

With the development of the dungeon, the strength of high-level subordinates must also be improved accordingly, otherwise it will be difficult to command more soldiers or command more high-level laborers.

To increase the strength of high-level subordinates, the old method is to send them out to fight, or provide them with the energy they need.

But the old way became obsolete after Rooney had "The Evolution of Monsters".

Now Rooney has a more advanced and efficient means of improving the abilities of his subordinates, that is, through body modification and research and development of corresponding monster evolution catalysts for his subordinates.

Body modification is only a temporary improvement, and the improvement of the lower ranks is usually not large.

The monster evolution catalyst is a very powerful thing, as long as there is enough of this thing, it can make monsters level up quickly.

However, the level of the monster evolution catalyst used by the monsters at different stages is also different, and the more advanced the monster evolution, the more advanced the catalyst is needed, and the more advanced the production materials are required.

The most basic evolution catalyst is made from very simple parts, which are parts of ordinary monsters.

Once these parts are collected, Rooney can disassemble and mix them with the lab equipment to create a catalyst for the monsters to drink.

The primary catalyst is effective against monsters below elite level 4, which means that Xiaoya's use is ineffective.

But now that the conditions are limited, it is also a good thing to let several high-level subordinates reach the elite fourth level, and when the conditions are better, we will consider Xiaoya's upgrade.

However, the catalyst cannot be manufactured yet, because the blacksmith room has not yet been upgraded, and the required laboratory equipment and laboratories are not available.

Rooney didn't wait until all of this was done to deal with the catalyst matter, he had now asked Xiao Ya to lead his subordinates to hunt down low-level monsters in large quantities, and bring back the parts of the monsters he needed.

It takes about every hundred monster parts to smelt a small bottle of catalyst, and a small bottle of catalyst can probably increase the evolution speed of an ordinary potential elite-level monster by ten percent.

If the potential is not good, it is useless, and if the potential is too good, you need to use more catalysts.

According to the ordinary potential, in order for a monster that has just risen to the elite level to reach the second level, it needs at least ten vials of such catalysts, and in order to make these ten vials of catalysts, at least a thousand monsters must be killed.

If you think about the amount of work, you can see that the road to catalysts is not easy.

Fortunately, Rooney didn't have to do these trivial tasks himself, and Xiaoya would collect enough primary catalyst materials for him.

Once all the high-ranking subordinates have been promoted to Elite Level 4, Rooney will consider letting these high-ranking subordinates choose their own powerful subordinates.

That way, his senior subordinates can also get a greater boost, and it is also excellent for the overall work efficiency.

Rooney even envisioned that after he became a lord-level existence, he would train his current few loyal high-ranking subordinates to the rank of general, so that they could also have their own dungeons, so that Rooney would be equivalent to having a small kingdom of his own.

With a small kingdom, he can compete with those lord-level beings for more abundant resources, and after getting more resources, he can improve his strength faster.

Once he becomes a king-level, or even a higher emperor-level, then few people dare to stop him when he walks sideways in this demon realm.

However, Rooney still clearly knows that it is a very distant thing, and he is only a captain level 8 now, and it is not realistic to imagine becoming a king and an emperor-level existence.

It's still okay to think about lord-level things, after all, after being promoted to the general level, as long as you make unremitting efforts, you can still grow into a lord-level existence.

And the king level and the emperor level are not as simple as simply improving their strength, this requires their own potential to be strong enough, and enough luck to have the opportunity, otherwise at the end of the demon life, it is impossible for him to step on that unattainable height.

Thinking about his fantasies about kings and emperors, Rooney felt a little arrogant.

The lesson of today's dragonfly beast battle told him to be low-key and cautious at all times, which is the first rule of survival in the Demon Domain.

If he didn't have such an awareness again, I'm afraid he wouldn't even have to think about it at the lord level, and he would definitely not live to that time.
