Having understood what level of difficulties they would encounter in the near future, and what the consequences would be if they were not resolved, the people in the mission were becoming more active with an astonishing degree of efficiency.

The overall plan drawn up by the Commander-in-Chief followed Lanne's tactical ideas.

That is, not to seek to build a wall that can block the path of the molten mountain dragon.

Instead, a continuous array of attack points were arranged along the line, making the molten mountain dragon, which was already dying of old age, feel tired and painful.

According to Guy the Dragonman hunter, the Molten Mountain Dragon originally had its own path forward, and its final destination would be a place where its energy could be harmlessly returned to nature after death.

Now I am just being confused by something, like a moth to a fire, heading towards the wrong place.

In general, it is only based on a biological instinct that is neither strong nor firm.

As long as the mission gives it enough blows on this route, it will naturally abandon this route when it feels uncomfortable.

It doesn't matter if it wants to die in the ocean or just on land.

Even when you die, your energy will be detonated. But it's better than blowing up in the leyline corridor.

Dying in an ordinary environment is like lighting a pile of loose gunpowder in an open space, which can be called fireworks.

However, if the molten mountain dragon dies in the leyline corridor, it is equivalent to pressing this pile of scattered gunpowder into a confined space, which can be called a bomb.

After clarifying the battle plan, the investigation team's convoy set up camp in the Great Ant Grave Wasteland and began its intensive work.

The technology of this world relies heavily on natural products.

For example, gunpowder and explosives, it is more convenient to use gunpowder herbs grown on the land than artificial gunpowder.

The spider webs of this world and ivy leaves rub each other to get a strong web easily and quickly.

All kinds of ammunition and warheads in hunters' light crossbows and heavy crossbows are also the products of natural plants with different functions and simple processing.

For example, the unique shape of the spiral fruit is used to make a penetrating bullet, and there is a poisonous bomb that uses poisonous mushrooms.

This time, the investigation team had already moved all of its own family assets here.

Hunters are now on the move, accumulating supplies for some time to come.

Collect gunpowder herbs, make recovery potions, secret potions, rope ladders, net knots, make bed crossbows from monster materials, and transport and assemble cannons.

People are needed everywhere, and all kinds of materials need people to collect.

And the technicians of the second regiment are now too busy to walk away from the makeshift furnace.

They had to build bed crossbow ammunition, artillery ammunition, and various steel fittings.

But even in such a busy situation, Lann went to the makeshift furnace and placed an order there.

As Lan En grows, the performance of [Turbidity Current] is becoming more and more unsuitable for the purpose given to it at the beginning of forging: to attack large monsters and attack strongly.

Although the current appearance can match the hunters' Taidao techniques, in the battle with the two brute-jawed dragons, the Blazing Claw and the Exterminating Dragon, Lan En has already done it twice, because the weight and volume of the blade are not enough, and it has not caused the expected lethality.

If it weren't for his own solid skills and extraordinary body, then two tactical expected mistakes, and a different person would have seen Hades a long time ago.

Therefore, taking advantage of the fact that he had to fight against several ancient dragon creatures this time, he had to raise the [Turbidity Current] to a level where he could be trusted.

And the head of the second phase of the regiment, who should not have much time, also took over his commission because of his interest in Valyrian steel.

That was a week ago.

And today, it's time for Lan En to come and pick up the goods.

But to Lan's surprise, he didn't see Uncle One-Eyed on the side of the busy makeshift furnace, but his eldest disciple was in charge of the entire furnace.

"If you want to come and get it, the master has opened a small workshop for himself in the west position. He said if you arrive, go there and look for him. ”

The big apprentice in the forging area said this, but his expression was very complicated.

Lan En can understand the enthusiasm and persistence of high-level and demanding craftsmen for the work itself when faced with a rather challenging job.

But the eldest disciple of the head of the second phase of the regiment now has an unwilling and fearful expression, 'I really want to complete this commission, but I can't do it no matter what'.

Lan En wanted to ask him if he was not feeling well, but he waved his hand very impatiently and told Lan En to leave quickly.

It made Rann think that he had invited him to drink before, but he ended up eating a bad stomach.

Following the guidance of the senior disciple in the forging area, Lan En easily found the small one-man workshop.

The small workshop is a stark contrast to the temporary furnace not far away, which adheres to the rugged and wild style of the region.

And the head of the second phase of the regiment, a one-eyed, red-haired man with his skin burned red and black, bald, and bearded like a steel brush, sat on the pony at the door of the workshop.

It's just that the impression is different from the past, this time, this uncle, who has always been energetic and arrogant, showed obvious exhaustion.

"Is the job I entrusted with so difficult?"

Lan En paced to him, not rushing to look inside the small workshop first, but jokingly stood with his waist crossed in front of the head of the second phase of the regiment.

"Look at you, you look like you're going to be boiled dry."

"Boiled dry?" The steelbrush-like beard shook and revealed a wry smile. "If only I said so."

"Huh?"

Lan En raised his eyebrows, his expression surprised.

He was just complaining casually, but he didn't think that his commission would really stump the great craftsman.

And even if he is stumped, with his heroic but stubborn character, he should not be soft on his lips.

But now

Without waiting for Lan En to ask, the leader of the second phase of the regiment first raised his hand weakly and pointed behind him with his thumb.

The small workshop where the fire had been extinguished was very dark, but a few beams of light still shone through the cracks in the wall.

Dust in the air fluttered in these beams of light.

And under the reflection of a few beams of light, a huge object leaned in the shadow of the corner of the small workshop.

A dusty felt cloth covers it, giving only a faint glimpse of its rigid outline.

"If you talk about the technical factors alone, then after you explained the technology of Valyrian steel, there is actually nothing that can stop me. After all, this kind of alloy steel itself has an unusually high degree of biological integration, and I don't even need to do anything special to deal with it. But."

"But?"

The heroic uncle hesitated in a rare tone. This sight made Lan En ask with great interest.

But the subsequent words of the head of the second phase made Lan En's face suddenly stiffen.

The master craftsman, who had been spinning around the furnace all his life, raised his bloodshot eyes and looked directly at Lan En.

"You're before. With the predecessor of this sword. I've chopped something terrible."

"Right?"
