Chapter 397: Dwarven Blacksmith

Since the matter was really urgent, Emperor Shi Tian really thought of it, and immediately sent a message to all the nearby lords he knew, whether it was the first or second layer of the second layer, as long as it was a lord, he received the message.

Suddenly, the whole dungeon was boiling, it was magic metal!

Many of the lords of the dungeons have not even been able to find Magic Metal Ore, and have always had to buy them from other places.

But this thing is too rare, it will be bought when it appears, and it will cost Bronze Law Coins, which will delay the production of your troops, among other things.

But now it's different, Emperor Shi Tian actually exchanged magic metal for food!

It is true that the dungeons are short of food, but that does not mean that the lords are short of food.

Able to have hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops, which lord does not have enough food reserves in his hands?

So they were still able to come up with a bunch of food if needed.

It is also worth mentioning that the lack of food in the dungeon is also related to the lack of attention from the lords.

In their opinion, the food is enough, and there is no need to store too much.

With that kind of effort and energy, it is better to use it in the production of troops and weapons.

And if the lords really want food, it's not impossible.

Because the dungeon is so vast, and the lord's territory is so large, there are always woods or swamps that produce food, and as long as you organize people and horses to hunt and gather, you can get a lot of food.

It's just that in the past, the lords would not send troops specifically for food, because the price of food was too low.

But now the situation has changed dramatically, food can be exchanged for magic metal, and magic metal can be crafted, bronze-level weapons and equipment.

This is also equivalent to the fact that food and bronze weapons and equipment are linked, and the value becomes different in an instant.

Almost at the same time as Emperor Shi sent a message, dozens of lords replied, wanting to trade immediately.

Emperor Shi Tian is now busy building a house, and he is too lazy to waste time, so he stipulates the exchange ratio, and the little angel is responsible for the transaction.

One kilogram of magic metal in exchange for a whole ton of food, or 500 kilograms of meat.

It may seem dark, but it's not at all.

As long as the lords want, send troops, they can go outside to scavenge for food, they can mine, they can hunt, and they can even snatch it from the wild monster tribe, and the cost is almost zero.

But magic metal is not easy to get, and even if there is a magic metal ore, it must be mined and smelted by a professional to get it.

Not to mention that there are not many magic metal mines, and smelting also requires the help of alchemists, which is costly.

Even the magic metal in Emperor Shitian's hand was not so easy to obtain.

The dwarven blacksmith needs to work for three days in a row to create ten kilograms of magical metal.

The dwarven blacksmith itself is a precious production class, and the labor force of the people is very valuable.

Even if Emperor Shi Tian doesn't pay his salary, he has to be entertained with good wine and meat, which is all a cost.

And the reason why Emperor Shi Tian wanted to release the magic metal as a big killer weapon was also because the environment had become peaceful now, and there would be no major war in the next year or two.

After all, the two major alliances were humiliated by Emperor Shi Tian and sued for peace, and there should not be an idiot who is not long-sighted to provoke him in a short period of time.

And the magic metal did not disappoint Emperor Shitian, and on the first day alone, the teleportation array of Emperor Fire City was almost crowded.

A huge amount of grain was transported, and even forced Emperor Shi Tian to temporarily build a warehouse to accommodate it.

And the orcs who had just come over did not go to mining anymore, but began to carry grain.

Since transporting food is an urgent task, even some rest time has to be delayed. But even so, these orcs were extremely excited.

Because they know the importance of food better than anyone else, it doesn't matter if they don't go hungry in the future.

And these grains really opened the eyes of Emperor Shitian, there were all kinds of fruits that had just been collected, rice and wheat that had been stored for two or three years, filled with a little rotten smell, and even hard jerky.

Moreover, some guys even brought fresh animal carcasses, and in addition to the usual beasts, there were even large snakes.

For these guys, Emperor Shi Tian will not refuse to come, as long as they are not particularly excessive, he will accept them all.

The fruits that were easily perishable were treated as wild vegetables and thrown into the broth, and whether they were orcs or minotaurs, they did not dislike it in the slightest, but felt that the taste was fresher.

Now there are hundreds of thousands of people here, and all of them are very edible, dozens of tons of wild fruits, not a matter of all, and they are quickly eaten.

The dried meat that can be stored for a long time is carefully stored in the warehouse, and it must be used in an emergency.

As for the fresh animal carcasses, there were orcs peeling their skins and cramping on the spot, and the fresh meat was used to stew soup, and even the bones were broken, and the orcs planned to eat them all.

The large amount of hides is a windfall, and they will be processed into leather armor and leather clothing for the use of these orcs.

In fact, although Emperor Shi Tian had accumulated some of the fur clothes and leather armor of the orcs before, the number was really not much, and it was gone after a few batches.

The poor kid in the back can only go bare-bottomed, or still wear those tattered skins.

In order to prevent these people from feeling unfair, Emperor Shi Tian also racked his brains and dispatched tens of thousands of tailors who could make leather clothes to come here to catch up.

Although it met the needs of so many people in a short period of time, it at least gave them hope and understood that Emperor Shi Tian had done his best, so that they would have no resentment.

And in this process, Emperor Shi suddenly found that he had more friends.

Because the amount of magic metals is limited after all, but the number of Liangshui River Black Iron Law Coins is endless.

Almost any far-sighted lord could know that this business would not last long, and as long as Emperor Shakti had an adequate supply of food, it would definitely be impossible to exchange magic metal for these things.

In this case, the lords who sent the grain became too many, so that Emperor Shi Tian had full choice.

Therefore, in order to compete for the quota of magic metals in the hands of Emperor Shitian, those lords took the initiative to show goodwill, and some were willing to lower some prices and give Emperor Shi Tian more food.

Others said that they could compensate Emperor Shi Tian in other aspects, including the lords of the two alliances.

And at this time, Emperor Shitian, who had the initiative, asked the two alliances to give some dwarves.

Compared with orcs and minotaurs, dwarves are undoubtedly the most important class of troops for Emperor Shitian.

It's not that the dwarves have a high combat power, but because the dwarves are all natural blacksmiths, and as long as they are trained well, it won't be long before they are qualified to produce magic metal.

As for the strategic resource of magic metal, Emperor Shi Tian is naturally more than ever, and it will definitely not be too little.

Because the magic metal is too attractive, and the two alliances are full of contradictions, no one obeys the other, so Emperor Shi Tian finally got what he wanted.

Batch after batch of dwarves were sent to Earthfire City.

This can make Emperor Shi Tian and the dwarf rune master Kasro happy.

Emperor Shakti specially opened up a number of new places for dwarves to live, small houses with two suites, for a dwarf to live.

The food supply is even more comparable, the official warrior, there is no upper limit to the broth and pastry, you can eat as much as you want, there is still a kilogram of meat every day, and you can even eat fresh fruits every once in a while.

And if they behave well, they can even drink good wine, which is too attractive for the dwarves who are addicted to alcohol.

Of course, to enjoy such good treatment, the dwarves must also contribute enough.

All of them were divided into blacksmiths, beginning with formal dwarven blacksmiths, learning the craft of blacksmithing.

In fact, the reason why only Emperor Shakti can produce magic metal from dwarves, while others can't, is that they don't have rune masters.

Carlos, the master of runes, can do two things, one is to teach the dwarves the technique of striking iron, and no one can learn it without teaching.

And optics can strike iron is not useful, and there must be a corresponding magic anvil and magic hammer.

And these magic anvils and magic hammers were designed and manufactured by Master Kasro himself, using his unique combination of runes.

It must also be combined with the special iron-striking techniques he has taught in order to finally produce magic metal.

It can be said that without the help of the rune master, if there are dwarves alone, at most they can make a group of blacksmiths, but they will not be able to make magic metal in any way.

But such a thing as a rune master must at least be a master above the legend, and he must also be a descendant of the bloodline of the dwarf king in order to inherit the rune knowledge exclusive to the dwarves.

In the dwarf population, warriors want as many as they want, but rune masters who require high IQ and bloodline dual attributes are rare and rare.

Therefore, at least in the circle of lords that Emperor Shi Tian came into contact with, he was the only one who had a dwarven rune master, and the others did not have such high-end followers.

Therefore, these dwarven slaves are just strong cannon fodder in the hands of other lords, but when they come to Emperor Shitian, they will immediately become high-level technical troops, and they are not precious.

In order to protect these precious blacksmiths, Emperor Shakti placed the dwarves in the center of the city, and several military camps were arranged around them for protection.

Although in recent years, these dwarves have had to pick up their blacksmithing skills and learn how to become a qualified blacksmith, they are simply not capable of producing magical metal.

However, as soon as they survive the apprenticeship stage, they will become hens that produce magic metal and lay golden eggs.

You know, it's not one or two dwarves, it's at least a million or two million!

Even Emperor Shi Tian plans to exchange magic metal for dwarfs, once that time comes, Emperor Shi Tian can even have millions of dwarven blacksmiths in his hands, and they can all produce magic metal, what a beautiful thing!
