Chapter 502: Chapter 422, The Great Furnace Inside the Mountain (Seeking subscriptions and recommendations…)_2

The enormous sand table of the Bloodthirsty mountain range was pushed over.

On the sand table, the topographical features of the Bloodthirsty mountain range, as well as the original location of the Troll Tribe, could be clearly seen.

Fang Hao descended from the viewing platform and stood before the sand table.

“Bellerga, these cities are all of considerable size. You might consider choosing one,” Fang Hao suggested, standing to one side.

The cities in front of him were all remnants of the Troll Tribes.

Although the Trolls had died, the buildings within the city, including the walls and the Clan Leader’s hall, as well as some residential structures, were all preserved.

Choosing an existing city would be much easier than building from scratch.

“What about this one? What do you think, my lord?” Bellerga, standing on tiptoe, pointed at the city behind the northern town.

This city was located to the north of the northern town.

In the middle position among three giant mountains.

It was also a city of the Rockhead Tribe.

As the second-largest Troll Tribe, the Rockhead Tribe’s city had already reached level five, with a good array of buildings.

Although it had been trampled upon by the Undead army.

Restoration would be simpler than a complete rebuild, saving on materials.

Of course, these were Fang Hao’s thoughts.

The reason Bellerga chose this fortress was due to the mines in the nearby mountains.

With their understanding of the mountains, the Dwarves suspected that a large vein of ore lay within the mountain.

Having chosen to settle in the Bloodthirsty mountain range, any future dealings with the Trolls would be inevitable.

They needed to claim this mining vein first.

“Fine, make preparations and set off immediately. I’ll accompany you there and help construct some of the buildings,” Fang Hao agreed immediately.

“Very well, my lord, I will arrange everything immediately.”

Having said this, Bellerga led his men away.

Afterward, he would lead his tribe to the chosen city.

…

In the afternoon, Fang Hao and Bellerga arrived at the former city of the Rockhead Tribe.

The city had been ravaged by war.

Many houses had collapsed, and the city gate was in severe disrepair.

The only sign of cleanliness was the lack of corpses within the city – all the bodies left by the Undead had been thrown into the Transformation Pool.

Fang Hao designated this location as a subsidiary city.

He named it Lysis City.

This name was chosen by Bellerga, presumably after the peak where they used to live.

Fang Hao agreed, seeing as the Dwarves lived here, having a name they liked would also provide a sense of belonging.

After appointing Bellerga as the governor, Fang Hao used the Book of Lords to help them restore several special buildings.

Within an hour, the entire city had reached a size where it was habitable.

Thinking his abilities would amaze Bellerga, who had been following closely, Fang Hao was surprised to find Bellerga remaining calm.

Upon asking, Fang Hao learned.

The Dwarves had already begun having contact with the transmigrator and had made substantial improvements to many of their weapons and equipment based on his suggestions.

For example, the loading method of the firearm, which involved pouring gunpowder into the barrel then inserting a bullet, was challenged by the transmigrator.

He improved the firearm’s body and bullets.

Bringing it closer to the effectiveness of modern firearms.

This was gaining attention among the Dwarven Tribes, although at this stage, it was still in the testing and designing phases.

However, with a clear direction for improvement, success couldn’t be far away.

Hearing Bellerga’s remarks, Fang Hao was the one who was surprised.

If modern weapons were produced, they could potentially shift the dynamics of this era.

Farmers equipped with firearms could possess strength comparable to that of regular troops.

Even Dragons might struggle to withstand the firepower.

It seemed that he needed to pay more attention to this matter.

Once all the buildings were completely constructed.

Fang Hao continued, “Bellerga, where would you suggest building the Mountain Heart Grand Furnace? I would like to start construction for you as soon as possible.”

“My Lord, the Mountain Heart Grand Furnace needs to be built with the mountain as its base. I have already chosen the location. Please, follow me.” Bellerga stated.

Fang Hao followed him to the foot of a towering mountain.

This mountain was one of the three surrounding cities.

It was also the largest of the three.

“My lord, let’s construct it here.” Bellerga stated without hesitation.

The Mountain Heart Grand Furnace was fundamental to the Dwarves’ ability to refine ores.

The construction of each Grand Furnace required the collective effort of several generations.

Blueprints are only held by a few individuals, such as the leaders of the dwarves.

The ability of a transmigrator can play a significant role at this time, because construction wouldn’t require several generations of people.

All it needs are the right materials.

[Mountain Belly Furnace: Wood 15750, Stone 1258850, Hardened Wood 27580, Fine Brick 185470, Thick leather 5435, Iron 15820, Cast Iron 8575, Metal parts 1255, Precision Parts 420, Red Flame Essence 22, Perfect Essence 10.]

(Description: It is said that the dwarves made use of a volcano to construct a huge furnace. The flames within the forge never extinguished, making the craftsmanship of the dwarves renowned across the lands.)

My goodness!

After seeing the required materials, Fang Hao was stunned.

The materials consumed by the Mountain Belly Furnace were simply frightening.

It was enough to build a city outright.

Especially the stone, which reached a staggering 1.2 million.

The remaining materials were also consumed in large quantities, especially the precision parts.

Fang Hao didn’t have the blueprints for the precision parts yet, all the parts in the warehouse were obtained from defeating various constructs.

They were saved bit by bit for later use in the construction of the constructs.

Now, for the construction of the Mountain Belly Furnace, they were barely enough.

But at this point, he couldn’t afford to be parsimonious with the materials.

If he were to say now that it couldn’t be built, wouldn’t that make these dwarves think he was unreliable?

Once the location was chosen, construction began right away.

In an instant, the whole mountain was enveloped in an orange glow, gradually taking on the shape of a large furnace.

However, the construction had already taken over three hours and it would still need some more time.

While waiting for the construction, Fang Hao made enough household utensils for the dwarves.

Beds, chairs, and various tools.

Anything he could think of, Fang Hao tried his best to fabricate for them.

Three hours passed quickly.

The massive furnace, created from the heart of the mountain, appeared in front of everyone.

[Ironbeard-Bellerga’s loyalty to you has increased by 15 points, current loyalty 80.]

Looking at the large furnace, Bellerga’s eyes sparkled with excitement and anticipation.

A great furnace that it took the Eight Peaks Mountain several generations to construct.

He and his followers now had one of their own, and it was brand new, belonging only to them.

[Mountain Belly Furnace]

[Category: Building]

[Working Population: 0/450]

[Raw Material: Iron Ore]

[Outcome: Cast Iron, White Steel Ingots, Dwarf Iron Ingots, Fine Iron, Fine Iron Ingots, Hundred-Refined Iron, Hundred-Refined Iron Ingots, Mithril Ingots.]

(Description: It is said that the dwarves made use of a volcano to construct a huge furnace. The flames within the forge never extinguished, making the craftsmanship of the dwarves renowned across the lands.)

The Mountain Belly Furnace certainly hasn’t disappointed Fang Hao.

It could forge various ingots, both the ones he knew of and the ones he didn’t.

In addition to the Fine Iron, there were several other types of outcomes.

Not only did it meet the material requirements for the newly acquired [Temple Guardian Armor], but it also ensured that there would be no worries about the resources for higher-level blueprints in the future.

“Thank you, Milord. With the furnace, we may continue our work,” Bellerga continued.

“Well, once everyone is settled, we can resume production. I will also arrange for the ore mined in the surrounding cities to be transported here for you all to process.”

“Understood, Milord.”

Bellerga nodded in understanding.

After helping the dwarves set up the city, Fang Hao did not linger.

He activated the Demon teleportation and returned directly to his territory.

…

In the days that followed, Fang Hao rested in his territory for three days.

The Desolate Battlefield had progressively transported back the spoils of war that had been excavated.

The number of gold and silver utensils was simply astounding.

The tribute amassed by the Lord of Thunder now benefitted Fang Hao.

“Milord, the statue of the King has been completed.”

This is the stone carver, Grey, who briskly walked over.

“Let’s go take a look,” said Fang Hao as he walked towards the temple with Anjia and Eira.

In front of the temple stood a statue, carved from stone, it was a likeness of Fang Hao.

Standing tall and erect, it was extremely impressive.

[The statue of the King can be placed in the Pantheon.]

[Placing the statue of the King in each affiliated territory can collect the Power of Faith and improve one’s Divinity level.]
