I Became a Progenitor Vampire

bang bang~ bang bang~

When Li De decided to build a super heavy-duty warrior, the sound of forging weapons became the main theme of the sky above Dawn City.

Residents are living in the sound of hammering these days.

At present, Dawn City has a total of 78 blacksmiths, most of them are low-level blacksmiths who forge farm tools for farmers, and only a dozen are intermediate-level blacksmiths who can independently forge weapons.

And there is only one senior blacksmith, Nuggets, who has half the blood of the dwarves, none of the master blacksmiths above the senior blacksmiths, and the only more advanced master blacksmith is the dwarf who just came to Dawn City, Warren Wildhammer.

The levels of blacksmiths are divided into low level, intermediate level, high level, master level, master level, and legendary level.

Blacksmithing is a life occupation and does not conflict with combat occupations. Anyone can change jobs if they want.

But it takes enough talent to become a master or even a master. These easy-to-enter life occupations require more effort than combat occupations to reach a higher level.

Warren was reluctant to forge armor for him at first, especially after looking at the massive bodies of Corso and Castro.

The ghost knows how long it will take for him to forge it.

Naturally, Li De could not let go of this master-level labor force. He exchanged a promise not to harm the young dwarf prince Anakin in exchange for his promise to forge Corso and Castro armor in the eyes of the dwarves.

Of course, if Warren alone is used to forge these two large pieces of armor, even if the dwarf's blacksmith level has reached the master level, he may not be able to forge it well in half a year.

Li De didn't have the time to wait, and he didn't have the mind to continue torturing this stubborn dwarf. With a wave of his hand, the blacksmith resources of the entire Dawn City could be used by him at will.

He only needs Varun to forge the strongest armor in the shortest time.

The mithril vein could be discovered by him at any time, but there were tens of thousands of orcs entrenched there.

He needs to quickly improve the combat power in his hands, and Koso and Castro are undoubtedly the best choices at this stage. When dealing with ground troops, these big men have a huge advantage that other creatures can't match.

And to improve efficiency in the future, Li De also promised that as long as the armor forged by Varun satisfied him, he could choose a place to live in the City of Dawn.

And it is no longer mandatory for him to complete a fixed task every day, and he can even reward him with half a barrel of fine wine every week.

For more than half a month, Warren, who spent at least 16 sundays forging weapons every day at the blacksmith's shop to get food, had a rare dislike of blacksmithing.

Hearing Li De's quid pro quo at this time, his enthusiasm skyrocketed, especially the weekly reward of half a barrel of fine wine made him cheer.

Dwarves have never been inseparable from wine, and they love wine as much as crafting weapons and mining.

No dwarf can resist fine wine, no.

Li De smiled and said nothing at this. Human nature is always like this. His previous oppression of Warren was absolutely ruthless, and even made the dwarf feel suffocated.

Now it's time to take a step back, reduce Warren's 16-day work hours to 12 hours, and provide him with enough food to even take a day off a week.

Compared with the previous tolerance and generosity policy, Warren felt relieved immediately, and now the visible resistance to him has been greatly reduced.

In his relaxation, Warren didn't seem to realize that he was still working for him as before, but the only difference in this work was that it was a little more comfortable than before.

This is the essence of superiors driving inferiors.

In other words, Warren can only enter his routine when he realizes it, because this initiative has always been in the hands of the superior, and the inferior can only be forced to accept it.

. . . . . .

City Lord Kachar, this alchemy formula was obtained from the night elves during my adventures in the underground world in my early years.

Night elves are the same family of elves. They like to wear light armor to fight, but although their armor is light and thin, they can block the attack of heavy crossbow arrows, and their defense is very strong.

The alchemy formula in my hand is the formula for making metal from them, and I named this type of metal that only appears on night elves as shadow metal.”

Warren started his forging business immediately after taking over the smithy, but got stuck when it came to what type of steel to use in forging his armor.

The Nuggets have previously developed a reinforced steel that is three times harder than ordinary steel, which is currently the most advanced metal in Dawn City.

Originally, Reed intended to use this new type of reinforced steel for Corso and Castro's armor.

But Warren has objections to this, because although the defense power of strengthened steel is strong enough, it is too heavy.

The density of reinforced steel is twice that of ordinary steel, and the armor forged according to Koso's body shape is likely to carry more than 10 tons.

Even Koso, a fellow with ancient giant blood, would be sluggish to wear it.

In this regard, Varun is resolutely different. For the dwarves who strive for perfection, this is definitely an insult to his reputation as a master blacksmith. For this reason, he took out a precious alchemy formula.

Night Elf?? Li De stood beside the fire forging weapons, looking at Warren with a heavy hammer in surprise in the scene where sparks burst out from time to time.

Night elves are close relatives of elves. In ancient times, when elves ruled the main plane of glory, night elves lived in the ancient forests like elves.

After the rise of the Alchemy Age and the loneliness of the elves, the night elves and elves parted ways and entered the underground world to survive.

Unlike the fate of the elves, the night elves have undergone tremendous changes over a long period of tens of millions of years.

They who lived underground were affected by the dark creatures in the underground world, and gradually lost their specialty of surviving on the surface, and completely reduced to dark life.

They are sinister and cunning, and like to kill.

However, after becoming dark beings, these high-ranking races with elven blood flowing in their bodies did not weaken, but instead played a splendid reputation in the underground world.

That's why Li De was so surprised by Warren's words, it was not easy to get such a precious alchemy formula from a powerful dark elves.

Yes, City Lord Kachar, the night elves once inherited precious knowledge from the elves. They are slender and must wear light armor in order to maintain flexibility in battle.

But the armor is weak and doesn't provide enough defense.

Under these circumstances, the powerful night elves spent countless efforts to develop this light and at the same time extremely strong metal.

The defense power of shadow metal is at least twice as hard as the enhanced steel developed by the Nuggets, but under the same volume, the weight is only half of ordinary steel.

Li De's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this.

If what Warren says isn't false, what does that mean?

This means that Corso and Castro can wear thicker armor, gain stronger defense, and truly become steel behemoths.

And it's nothing. I also know an alchemy formation. As long as mithril is drawn in the armor, it will give the armor a super high magic resistance. When it comes to making the armor, Warren is obviously excited, not without pride to show off in front of Li De.

At that time, with the unique sturdy metal of the night elves, even if it is hit by a human dragon hunting crossbow in the front, it will not be injured, and the Cyclops in thick armor will become an invincible existence!

Li De was heartbroken and hurriedly asked.

Then how can this metal be made?

Hearing Li De's question, Warren's eyes flashed a bit of a strange light.

City Lord Kachar, this is the treasure I got after giving my life in the underground world...

Li De waved his hand and said straight.

what do you need?

Since the other party threw this bait out, he didn't believe that Warren really wanted nothing.

Beside the blazing fire, the scorching air made the surrounding temperature scalding hot, and the red flames shone on the side face of the dwarf with a black beard, and those black eyes stared at Li De.

City Lord Kachar, if one day you discover the dwarf tribe, I hope you can spare my clan.

Oh?

Li De raised his brows. He originally thought that Warren would let him release a dwarf, or release them after a certain period of time, but he did not expect that the dwarf forging master would say such a paragraph.

Lord Valen, why do you think I can discover the dwarf tribe? Li De's eyes were a little playful, I think you should have confidence in the dwarf tribe.

In fact, Li De far underestimated his deterrent power in Warren's heart.

The president of the covenant of darkness known as the crown of Ilo is even very likely to be an extraordinary terrifying existence.

Moreover, he is the patriarch of vampires, who rules a huge city, and with his superb skills, he can make the blood clan and human beings, who were originally hostile to each other or even mortal enemies, coexist peacefully.

All things considered, Li De's status in Warren's heart has become very high.

The opponent is not only powerful and unfathomable, but also intelligent and powerful.

Even though he has confidence in the dwarf tribe, in the face of such a powerful dark boss, Valen still has a bit of a guilty conscience.

This vampire was so powerful that he could even destroy the dwarves with the power of his subordinates alone, and he had to leave a way for the dwarven tribe.

Although the dwarf tribe has not yet been discovered, Valen has an inexplicable feeling that finding the dwarf tribe does not seem to be an impossible task for these vampires.

The reason why he dragged on and refused to cooperate so hard was to allow the tribe to send out a second wave of rescue teams after they lost contact, so as to solve the current crisis as soon as possible.

Otherwise, it is really hard to say what will happen when this vampire discovers the dwarf tribe.

As for the army of tens of thousands of orcs, Varun felt inexplicably an invincible opponent for the dwarf tribe, and it seemed that it was not a big deal in the hands of the powerful and mysterious city lord Kachar.

City Lord Kachar, I only need a promise from you. I believe that with your greatness, I will never betray my promise.

Li De could not laugh or cry when he heard the words, where did this dwarf have so much confidence in him?

However, impulsive and reckless guys like orcs know how to enslave dwarves to forge weapons, let alone him?

Even in Li De's opinion, if the dwarf tribes can really be discovered, the value of these dwarves' skills may not be as fast as the mithril veins[ ].

Okay, Lord Warren, I promise you, if one day the dwarf tribe is discovered, unless they are hostile to the blood clan and take the initiative to attack, I will not hurt them.

Varun was obviously relieved, and nodded immediately, City Lord Kachar, I believe in your promise.

To forge the metal unique to the night elves, it requires very cumbersome steps, and also requires a lot of precious ores...

Immediately afterwards, Varun directly stated the formula of this shadow metal without any reservation.

As the forging master of dwarves, Varun has a lot of good things in his hands. He has a few formulas that are better than shadow metal, but those are the treasures of dwarves and cannot be leaked, so he has nothing to feel distressed about.

Nuggets and a few other blacksmiths listened to Warren's explanation very seriously, wishing they could not write down a word.

Li De has no interest in this, blacksmithing is so boring.

However, if you want to forge shadow metal, you need to buy a lot of precious metal.

For example, the fine gold of the crater, the cold iron produced in the snow-covered land, etc., the current reserves in Dawn City are very small, and they need to be purchased in Green City.

Li De naturally agreed to this, as long as he could achieve the effect he wanted, it was nothing to him to pay a certain amount of Jinpuke.

Under his instigation, Harrison directly sent people to Green City to inform Stanley to find and buy related precious ores.

Since the Dark Covenant became a force under Li De's command, the previous model that only he had contact with Green City has become a thing of the past.

Now the City of Dawn has a special blood race responsible for contacting the Covenant of Darkness.

Because of the special nature of the Covenant of Darkness, even the precious resources that cannot be obtained from the Crimson Mage Tower can be purchased.

So Dawn City is relying more and more on the Covenant of Darkness in this regard.

Of course, this also greatly eased Li De's burden, allowing him to spare time for other things.

It took three full days for the acquisition process to complete the purchase of Coso and Castro.

Li De spent a full 100,000 gold pucks for this, and every mistake was 100,000! !

This directly hollowed out the profit of the Scarlet Mage Tower this month, and made Spark, who was planning to continue to speed up the construction of the ancient alchemy magic circle, to complain a lot.

If it wasn't for Li De no longer in Green City, the archmage would kill him and spray him.

Li De participated in almost the entire process of forging the armor by Varun, and he watched how Corso's huge armor was formed step by step.

Although the smithy had previous experience in making armor for Corso, the products they produced were undoubtedly substandard industrial scraps.

Warren scoffed at their work and redesigned the entire casting process.

It has to be said that a master forging is a master forging. The same fast iron, the same time, and even the same percussion method, the effect of forging is completely different.

The huge bodies of Coso and Castro also caused a lot of problems to the entire manufacturing process, but with Valen being there, they all solved them one by one.

It seems that there is only one more person in the blacksmith shop, but the entire blacksmith shop has improved several grades.

Li De also realized for the first time that a master-level life professional has such a huge bonus to related professionals.

One day, two days, three days, until the tenth day after the start of the casting plan, the two pieces of equipment, which cost 100,000 gold pucks, were finally successfully cast.

Li De stood in front of the blacksmith shop excitedly, the huge Koso stood beside him, and Castro soared under the sky with his dark red bat wings.

The huge body with a wingspan of 16 blades aroused the amazement of countless residents.

The dragon is no more than that.

The Blacksmith Shop is an area with more than ten two-story houses serving as workshops.

At this time, the forging of the beating sounds that had been frantically sounding in the middle of the night had stopped the forging of the nearby residents who had been miserable for the past few days.

Not only Li De, Harrison, Amy, Nilo, Nicole, but even Frey, who has been guarding in the Holy Land, came to the small square in front of the blacksmith shop.

The surrounding area is crowded with residents of Dawn City. The news that the blacksmith is forging weapons for the Cyclops has been announced by the Propaganda Department.

What kind of weapons and armor does this hunk use? It's exciting to think about.

So I heard that the casting was successful today, and immediately attracted no residents to come.

I heard that this is an artifact forged by Kachar himself for Lord Koso, I really want to see it.

Have you seen the giant beast flying in the sky? The adults in the patrol said that it was called Castro. It was a divine beast created by Kachar's divine power. It is said to be comparable to a giant dragon...

Hey~ If Lord Koso wears sturdy armor, who else can be the opponent of Lord Koso? City Lord Kachar is really wise and martial...

I'm really looking forward to it. I want to know what kind of armor Kachar City Lord has forged...

The people in the propaganda department were propaganda that the dwarves were forging armor, but the residents consciously attributed the credit to Li De.

Because the propaganda department also said that the dwarves are not friends at present, because they refuse to cooperate with the Holy Light blood.

This news caused many residents to look down upon Warren during this period of time.

A lot of times, Warren will feel very depressed, because I don't know when an old lady will come out of the street corner and point at him and taunt him, and he doesn't even know where he is wrong.

Come, come!! That's Lord Nuggets, look behind him!!

Quick, don't block me, let me see!! Let me see

Hey, what is that?? It's scary!!

There was a burst of heated discussion around, and the scene was like a drop of boiling oil was dripped into a hot pot.

In the middle of the ten houses of the blacksmith shop, a tall warehouse slowly opened.

The eyes of Li De and everyone around him lit up, full of expectations.

Although Li De participated in the entire manufacturing process, Warren did not let him participate in the last link, because the last link involved the most mysterious blacksmithing technique of dwarves.

So Li De doesn't know what the two armors cost him 100,000 Jinpukes to build in the end.

Everyone was looking forward to it. With a black beard on his face, Valen, who was bound by the forbidden magic chain, walked out of the warehouse with his head held high. The dozens of blacksmiths behind him pushed the things that made the scene fall into silence.
