Li Xiya took advantage of the gap between the workbench upgrades and came to the stone furnace on the side.

Consume [Sand Block x20] to smelt [Glass x20].

Then put in [Copper Ore x270] [Wood x90] and start smelting [Copper Ingot x90].

Finally, go to the upgraded copper workbench and put in [Glass x20] to craft [Glass Bottle x40].

After all this, Li Xiya looked at the workbench made of copper bricks in front of him.

【Name:Copper Workbench】

[Type: Furniture Crafting Station]

[Quality: Normal]

[Effect: Unlocks a series of regular recipes for copper equipment, furniture, buildings, and tools, no time is required to craft wooden series, and 50% reduction in synthesis time for stone series!] 】

[Research: You can invest in tin ingots to research to unlock a series of regular recipes for tin equipment, furniture, buildings, and tools!] 】

[Specialization Requirements: General F]

[Upgrade Requirements: Iron Ingot x500, Lens x150, Shelter Level 4 (Upgrade time 45 minutes)]

[Note: The door of the Bronze Age has been pushed open by you, and the new research and development function will better help you improve your combat effectiveness!] 】

"Research?"

Li Xiya found the key point at a glance!

The Wooden series does not take time to craft, and the Stone series equipment crafting time is reduced by 50%, which is already an unexpected surprise.

Unexpectedly, after the upgraded copper workbench, there is a new function - [Research]!

Li Xiya touched his chin and pondered:

"According to the meaning of the note, the overall strength of the tin series equipment is higher than that of the copper series equipment?"

Li Xiya clicked on the [Equipment] category, and his fingers slid up and down.

[Materials required for the Copper Longbow: Copper Bar x7 (Crafting time 1 minute)]

At present, the shelter does not have ingots, and the copper longbow is indeed stronger than the stone longbow.

Li Xiya glanced at the coarse cloth backpack, it was okay...... There are still copper ingots to make a copper longbow.

Click Composit.

【Name:Bronze Longbow】

[Type: Weapon]

[Ammunition used: Arrows]

[Quality: Normal]

[Attack: 6]

[Critical Strike Chance: 4%]

[Durability: 150]

[Specialization Requirements: Remote F]

[Note: The Copper Longbow has a range of 200 meters and has 6 base attacks, which is enough to deal more damage to enemies!] 】

Li Xiya replaced the bronze longbow, and then found the data of the tin longbow on the unlocked tin series equipment page.

【Name:Tin longbow】

[Type: Weapon]

[Ammunition used: Arrows]

[Quality: Normal]

[Attack: 7]

[Critical Strike Chance: 4%]

[Durability: 100]

[Specialization Requirements: Remote F]

[Note: One of the equipment weapons in the Tin series, this equipment recipe can be unlocked by throwing in Tin Ingot x7!] 】

Comparing the two, it can be intuitively found that the strength of the tin series of weapons and equipment is indeed stronger than that of the copper series.

However, if you want to unlock the tin series recipe, you also need to invest in tin ingots for research.

Li Xiya bowed slightly:

"It seems that in the coming period, there will be a great demand for copper, tin, and even iron ore in the shelter!"

"In the future, ore ingots will become a more popular circulation resource."

After learning about the new features, Li Xiya became more and more interested in the new recipe for the copper workbench.

Clicking on the [Building] category, he found that in addition to the original city wall recipe, as well as the recipe for the arrow tower that was actively entered.

The [Construction] category has a new recipe.

【Name:Elemental Mage Tower】

【Type: Formula】

[Quality: Normal]

[Required Materials: Stone x30, Wood x30, Amethyst Staff x1, Star Bottle x1]

[Construction time: 5 minutes (Shelter Level 2)]

[Effect: After use, you can spend the required materials to build the Elemental Mage Tower within the sanctuary area!] 】

[Specialization Requirements: General F]

[Note: You can unlock a more advanced Elemental Mage Tower series recipe by upgrading your Shelter research, and the Elemental Mage Tower is also the most conventional and mainstream Mage Tower upgrade system in the Shelter, and there is no one!] 】

Li Xiya's eyes lit up.

The disadvantage of the fire mage tower recipe is that one of the materials required for construction, the magic weapon fire bullet magic wand does not have a synthesis formula, and Li Xiya cannot make it independently.

Even if you can build multiple fire mage towers at present, if you want to upgrade, you will inevitably have to spend a lot of money to buy a fire bullet magic wand from Li Bianqing.

In this way, will you not be choked by the throat?

This is also the reason why Li Xiya only built one fire mage tower.

But the appearance of the formula of the Elemental Mage Tower gave Li Xiya another choice.

With the Elemental Mage Tower recipe unlocked with the upgrade of the workbench, the upgrade system is clear, and you don't have to worry about being choked!

For Li Xiya, the Elemental Mage Tower is more suitable to be included in the Shelter's defense system than the Fire Mage Tower.

"Amethyst staff?"

Li Xiya's brows furrowed slightly.

Since the recipe for the Elemental Mage Tower is unlocked based on the workbench upgrade, the required weapon, the Amethyst Staff, should be the same, right?

Li Xiya rummaged through, and sure enough, it was as he expected.

[Materials required for Amethyst Staff: Amethyst x8, Copper Ingot x10 (Crafting time 10 minutes)]

Click here for details.

【Name:Amethyst Staff】

[Type: Magic Weapon]

[Quality: Normal]

[Skill: Instantaneous Amethyst Arrow (Consumes 5 mana, deals 15 base damage to enemies)]

[Durability: 100]

【Mastery Requirements: Mage N】

[Note: The headquarters of the Magicians Association researched the magic runes of Amethyst by copying and researching the standard magic weapons for the apprentices!] 】

Compared to Instantaneous Spark, Amethyst Arrow's skill base damage is 1 point higher.

However, Instant Spark has the side damage of [Fire Debuff]!

What's more critical is -

Instantaneous Amethyst Arrow's skill costs 5 mana, while Instantaneous Spark only costs 2 mana!

High mana cost, low skill damage, and no debuffs are all disadvantages of the Amethyst Staff!

Judging from the data, it is still more cost-effective than the Spark Magic Wand!

Really!

Cheap no good goods!

Good goods are not cheap!

Li Bianqing, the inheritor of fire magic, still has something!

It can be said that although the Amethyst Staff is slightly inferior to the Spark Wand, it is also much stronger than the primary equipment such as the Zombie Arm, the Cactus Sword, and the Wooden Boomerang.

Moreover, Li Xiya is not holding the Amethyst Staff to fight the enemy, but only using the Amethyst Staff as an upgrade material for the construction of the Elemental Mage Tower in the future, and it is okay to be weaker.

While there's still some time.

Li Xiya took out [Wood x50] [Stone x50] to synthesize [Wooden Arrow x1250].

Then spend [Gel x50] [Wood x50] to craft [Torch x150].

Finally, use [Torchx125] [Wooden Arrowsx1250] to craft [Flaming Arrowsx1250].

Store the remaining Torch x25 in a stone storage box.

Li Xiya came to the moon well, took out the [glass bottle x41] and poured it in turn, and finally obtained the [Yuehua Elixir x41].

[Moon Well Capacity: 1.32L/12L]

The preparations before the battle were ready, and Li Xiya looked up at the countdown in front of him.

[Countdown to the Enemy Tide——]

"Ding!"

[When the blood moon is in the sky, the crisis is raging, the evil god is murmuring, and the scarlet is coming!] 】

[Turbidity and filth, in the dark and rotten corners, have been brewing for a long time! 】

[Blood Moon Week Enemy Tide is officially coming!] 】
