Survival For All: I, Aura Creator

Chapter 85: The Soul of the Blacksmith, the Internalized Miner

Stir-fried rapeseed flowers are very fragrant, simply seasoned with salt, garlic, and a little fat, the stir-fried rapeseed flowers are crispy and refreshing.

The taste is also mixed with the fragrant aroma of green vegetables, which is undoubtedly a different flavor for him who hasn't eaten green vegetables for days, feeling that the greasy feeling in his stomach has been reduced a lot.

It can be said that this is the most delicious meal Ning Ze has had in a while.

Fenrir also got a piece of roasted wild boar meat and a chicken leg, which was from a wild mountain chicken captured by Fenrir, which was too weak to breed due to being bitten, so it was cheap.

Watching Fenrir also enjoy the meal, Ning Ze smiled with relief.

Eat more, only when you are full can you have the strength to catch more small animals for him.

After the meal, Ning Ze prepared to extinguish the fire and wash the pots and bowls. When he took the iron pot from the stone stove and placed it on the ground, the bottom of the iron pot suddenly made a crisp tapping sound.

"Huh?"

Ning Ze was stunned for a moment. This area was covered with snow on top of the soil. How could it make such a sound?

He picked up the pot again and saw a hard object protruding from a small area on the ground. Under the sunlight, it emitted a faint black metallic luster that was almost invisible.

Sensing something, Ning Ze quickly cleared the nearby snow, revealing more of the hard object, which looked like a corner of a metal object.

"What on earth is this?"

Ning Ze took out the iron shovel from his backpack and slowly dug out the soil around the edge of the metal object. After a few minutes, a treasure chest appeared in front of him.

"It's actually an iron chest, no, it's not just partially covered with iron, the whole chest is made of iron."

Ning Ze quickly realized that something was wrong, and then the corresponding introduction of the chest appeared on the screen.

[Blacksmith's Iron Chest]

[Description]: Perhaps it is a toolbox left behind by a craftsman, and it may contain something useful for you.

It turned out to be a craftsman's toolbox, which must contain some useful tools.

Ning Ze quickly checked around the iron chest and found the lock clasp, which was not locked. It was just right for him. He rubbed his hands and opened the chest directly.

"Congratulations, you have obtained a hammer*1, 30 refined iron ingots, Blacksmith's weapon forging diary*1, Level II furnace manufacturing blueprint, and an additional Blacksmith's soul*1."

What the heck?

Ning Ze looked at the items opened in the iron chest, feeling stunned.

A toolbox left by a Blacksmith, almost every item inside was closely related to iron forging.

What surprised Ning Ze even more was the Level II furnace blueprint obtained this time, which meant that there was a possibility of iron smelting in the territory in the future.

"It's a pity that I haven't found any iron ore nearby these days. Otherwise, with this furnace, iron smelting could also be arranged."

The level of the territory is still almost in the primitive era, without any industrial capabilities.

All industrial materials come from treasure chests or the trading post. To put it bluntly, players are a group of poor creatures who survive by picking up trash.

If Ning Ze's territory could smelt iron, some iron-made daily necessities and weapons could also be manufactured, and corresponding industrial technology could gradually develop.

"Now that the furnace is available, we just need iron ore."

Ning Ze accepted the furnace blueprint with a smile, then looked at the additional reward: Blacksmith's soul.

[Blacksmith's Soul]

[Description]: People who possess the Blacksmith's soul will add quality to the equipment and tools they forge, and it will take effect when placed in the backpack.

"An unlocking item for the secondary profession?"

In the trading post, many people have built simple furnaces to forge weapons with scrap iron, but I have never heard of anyone forging weapons and equipment with quality.

The quality of equipment and tools means that they come with additional effects and data values. Even white equipment without any special effects can trigger the game system's automatic collection and gathering functions.

If Ning Ze could mass-produce quality equipment or tools, it would be a good thing for both the development of the territory and for trading.

"But this kind of thing is not very suitable for me. Perhaps the Blacksmith's soul should be used on the residents of the territory who can forge iron."

Although the secondary profession is attractive, Ning Ze doesn't know how to forge iron at all, and it's not possible to waste time learning. Using the Blacksmith's soul on himself would be a waste.

Instead of living so hard, it's better to leave the peripheral matters to the residents of the territory. To prevent this item from being lost, it can be locked, and no one else can take it out of the backpack except for him.

"The Blacksmith's weapon forging diary can also be given to this person, so that the territory can produce quality weapons in the future."

The future looks bright, and Ning Ze happily packed the items from the chest into his backpack.

After washing the pots and bowls, Ning Ze looked around and saw a large area of rapeseed flowers that had not been harvested, so he once again started a battle with the rapeseed flowers.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The sound of the iron pickaxe hitting the rocks was continuous, accompanied by heavy breathing and exclamations.

Ten male residents were working hard to chisel the rocks in this small valley, and every time the iron pickaxe in their hands fell, sparks would fly.

Suddenly, a man's iron pickaxe stopped, and then he laughed as if he had gone crazy: "Haha, I leveled up again, this is so cool, I gain ninety experience points and one attribute point every three hours. I now have twenty points in strength, no one can stop me from becoming the most handsome guy in this quarry!"

The people around him stopped and looked at him. If you ignore what he said, you would think his wife had given birth.

"It's not just you, I'll level up again in three hours. Chiseling rocks is not just about strength, it's not sustainable with just strength. You need high constitution. After I level up, I'll put all five free attribute points into constitution."

The person next to him said with a look of dissatisfaction.

There are idiots who put all their points into strength just to mine more.

"Oh, I can't stand it."

"Hehe, you're in a hurry. Are you afraid that I'll mine too much today and get praised by the boss? Hehehe."

"Hmph! Childish!"

"The world of martial arts is all about speed. Only when the iron pickaxe swings fast can you mine more rocks. You, with your head full of strength points, will only be in the red state for three minutes. If you don't add constitution points, you'll be lying on the ground later."

"Hehe, I don't understand. I'll mine the most rocks today!"

"Hehe, today's meat is definitely mine!!!"

As long as I surpass you, the boss will only have eyes for me, Jojo!!! Ahahaha!!!

I hate brainless idiots.

Other players looked at him with a mix of anger and admiration: "You're so annoying!"

The update... has ended.

His hollow eyes gradually cleared.
