Farming with Entries: From Lord to Emperor Chapter 792 - 363: Flying Serpent Dragon (2)

In this era, people are all "fighting for themselves," accustod to closing their doors and doing their own thing, with knowledge and resources monopolized.

Not only the spellcasters, but even the skills of ordinary craftsn are passed down generationally between masters and apprentices, often reflecting personality and innovation.

But Luo De thinks with an industrial mindset; collaboration and efficiency are paramount.

Industrial products and processes must be standardized to reduce costs and complexity.

As for personality and innovation, Luo De’s research institute naturally takes charge.

Luo De has more ideas yet unspoken.

In the past life, there was a machine specifically for carving; as long as stable magic power is provided, the machine is more precise than any human hand.

But current conditions do not permit it, so Luo De has not ntioned it yet.

Waiting until Zhuo Ya and Senda finish learning the chanical faction knowledge from the Sea Abyss Wizard Tower, ntioning it is not too late.

"The matter of the magic engraving knife is left to you, Fa Fuke, so that the enchantnt factory can be set up faster."

Luo De ordered, "Quickly co up with a design plan, you can ask for any materials you need."

"Alright, I’ll gather people to study it soon." Fa Fuke nodded.

As the two were communicating, Guard quickly walked in with Fisher.

Fisher held a book, the beast ears on her head slightly swaying with her steps.

Behind them, guards carried two boxes.

"Lord Duke."

Fisher bowed respectfully, a seductive smile on her face, presenting the book to Luo De with both hands,

"My lord, this is the record sheet of the special ore veins you wanted."

Luo De nodded slightly and asked, "Is there a Black Steel vein?"

"Yes, my lord."

Fisher opened the book, flipped a few pages, and read: "On October 17, the thirteenth squad found a special ore vein in the Boar Forest of the Eastern Province, identified by Lusen as Deep Iron, also known as Black Steel."

"The Eastern Province is a bit far from here."

Luo De asked, "Is there a place closer?"

"No, my lord."

Fisher shook her head slightly, then pointed to the boxes and said, "Inside are samples brought back by the hunting squad, all freshly delivered, yet to be identified, from the Southern Province."

Luo De turned to Fa Fuke, "See if there’s any Black Steel, and identify the others too."

"Sure."

Fa Fuke quickly walked forward, taking out a piece of ore to examine closely.

These ores were wrapped in cloth bags, with source information attached inside.

Following Luo De’s instructions, Fa Fuke identified each piece of ore.

When he reached the third piece, he turned around, "Lord Duke, this is Black Steel ore."

The ore in Fa Fuke’s hand was as black as coal, with a tallic sheen on the surface.

"This type of Black Steel has a higher hardness than ordinary steel and can resist high temperatures and corrosion."

Fa Fuke’s eyes were filled with excitent as he introduced, "It also has a slight affinity for magic, so a forged sword can have at least two enchantnts."

Luo De stepped forward, picked it up, and weighed it.

It felt heavier than regular iron ore, with higher density.

"How does it compare to Sea Pattern Magic Iron?" Luo De asked.

"Of course, Sea Pattern Magic Iron is better, Lord Duke."

Fa Fuke responded without hesitation, "Sea Pattern Magic Iron, when infused with magic, is a true magical tal with complete magical conductivity."

"Although a longsword forged with Sea Pattern Magic Steel can only have up to three enchantnts, its potential is entirely different."

Fa Fuke added, "Sea Pattern Magic Steel can be directly used to make magic jewelry."

"Hmm, I rember Vivian ntioned it to before."

Luo De nodded and then drew his Ashbringer to hand to Fa Fuke, "So my sword can have two more enchantnts?"

Fa Fuke took the sword with both hands, his eyes closely examining it,

"Extrely uniform enchantnts, each line is beautifully crafted..."

Fa Fuke looked at Luo De in surprise, "You have such a powerful rune engraver under your command?"

"No."

Luo De said with a smile, "If I had, I would certainly introduce them to you, but the enchantnts on this co from an alien race’s talent."

"Alright, truly amazing."

Fa Fuke seed a bit disappointed but then said, "Your Ashbringer has two enchantnts, one is Sharpness Enchantnt, and the other is related to Fla."

"If you want more enchantnts, it might only be related to the material, like durability."

Fa Fuke looked down to examine the Ashbringer again and then returned it to Luo De, saying,

"The quality of Sea Pattern Magic Steel used to forge this sword is very high; besides enchantnts, it can also embed gemstones."

"That’s a good idea; find so ti to cut grooves for ."

Luo De took the Ashbringer and handed it to Vivian, then turned to Fisher,

"Where is this vein?"

"Southern Province, Stony Mountain Forest, about a hundred miles from here." Fisher answered.

"Then mine this one."

Luo De ordered, "Have Atrey find so slaves, then let Hamr take charge."

"Fa Fuke, work with Hamr on this."

Luo De turned to Fa Fuke, "The ore mined from this Black Steel vein will be used exclusively for forging enchanted equipnt in the future."

Although it’s not as good as Sea Pattern Magic Iron, it’s sufficient as equipnt for ordinary soldiers.

"Rember to keep good records." Luo De reminded.

These matters should have been handled by Makuru, but he’s not here right now, so it must be docunted first.

"Yes, Lord Duke."

Fa Fuke nodded in response.

After arranging the affairs of the enchantnt factory, Luo De did not linger and left the courtyard with Vivian.

But before reaching the palace, Linda hurriedly caught up.

Luo De stopped and turned to wait for Linda to catch up,

"What’s wrong?"

Linda hurriedly saluted, "You have finally returned."

"The hunting squad sent back news that the cliff on the southern coast has traces of Flying Serpentine Dragons."

Linda reported seriously, "They, like wyverns, have a trace of true dragon lineage in their bodies."

The so-called Flying Serpentine Dragon is a flying snake with wings.

They also can’t use magic but can launch poisonous barbs with their tail stingers.

When the hunting squad’s mission began, Luo De had ordered that any discoveries of dragon-like creatures must be reported imdiately without taking reckless action.

Other magical beasts, whether dead or alive, have little value difference.

But dragon-like creatures have greater value when alive.

"Excellent."

Luo De’s face showed a hint of joy as he ordered, "Let the hunting squad quickly proceed to the Flying Serpentine Dragon’s habitat and stand by; Vivian and I will follow shortly."

In Luo De’s view, what inhabits that coastline isn’t the Flying Serpentine Dragons.

But rather dragons capable of breath attacks like Frost and Thunder.

...

...

The sea breeze stirred from the deep blue sea, repeatedly pounding the waves against the rocks below the cliff.

The sprayed foam shimred in the sunset’s afterglow, looking like shattered gold flakes scattered on the sea’s surface.

Black Fla and Frost pierced through the clouds in quick succession, rapidly approaching the cliff on the coastline.

Soon, a strange sound echoed along the coast.

Sharp, elongated, a piercing screech tearing through the air.

This was definitely not the call of sea birds.

Luo De, seated on Black Fla’s back, gazed ahead.

One large and three small Flying Serpentine Dragons surged over the sea surface below the cliff, continuously hauling out fish from the waters.

The Flying Serpentine Dragons’ bodies were frail and slender, asuring just over three ters long.

Their wings also appeared more fragile than those of ordinary dragons.

But the Flying Serpentine Dragons were not weak.

During hunting, their wings flapped in the air, bodies arched like bows, muscles taut, seeming full of explosive power.

And their tails bore hook-shaped poisonous stingers, tips glowing with a ghostly green hue.

"Black Fla, descend."

At Luo De’s command, Black Fla dove towards the coast, with Frost closely following.

The largest of the Flying Serpentine Dragons was the first to notice Black Fla’s presence, imdiately screeching and pulling away.

The other three smaller Flying Serpentine Dragons quickly sensed danger, swiftly distancing themselves.

As dragon beasts, they instinctively feared the presence of Black Fla.

But territorial instincts also made them hesitant to flee, slitted pupils fixed on Black Fla, the enormous reminder of black dragons.
