After finishing his inspection of the vineyard, Lin Rui finally stepped into the Blacksmith Shop.
The Excellence-level blacksmith of the territory, Lorne Red Peak, was already inside, striking away.
Lin Rui glanced at Lorne’s attributes.
[Blacksmith: Lorne]
[Talent: Excellence]
[Level: 10]
[Age: 38]
[Loyalty: 60]

Trait: [Craftsman Family: Born into a family of craftsn, he was imrsed in craft production from a young age. Production efficiency increases by 10%, with a very low chance of entering a state of nimble mind, enhancing the quality of handcrafted products.]

[Furnace lv3: lting ores and weapons into ingots is a skill essential for every blacksmith. Efficiency increases by 15%.]
[Forge List: Cold-Forged Longsword (Green Enhanced-level Weapon), Soldier Chainmail, Kitchen Knife, Scythe, Hoe, Iron Shovel, Scissors, Golden Pansy Clan Emblem.]
He could actually forge green gear!
This made Lin Rui’s eyes light up; ordinary-level weapons were gradually losing value, while green enhanced-level weapons were currently the most demanded and trade-rich equipnt in the market.
Moreover, in the foreseeable future, enhanced-level equipnt will be a crucial source of fiscal revenue for the territory.
Lin Rui closed the attribute panel, walked to Lorne’s side, and asked, "Lorne, what are you crafting?"
Fully focused, Lorne noticed Lin Rui’s arrival only then, quickly stopping his actions and said, "Lord, please forgive my oversight for not noticing your arrival."
"No problem, focus is a delightful virtue."
"Your mind is as wide as the ocean. Serving you is my honor. Currently, I am crafting the clan emblem for you, Lord."
The Golden Pansy Clan Emblem was a treasure Lin Rui had acquired on his first day, yet had always been unable to craft it. Lorne’s arrival finally solved this issue.
"Have you produced anything? Let see."
Lorne imdiately picked up a light golden Golden Pansy Clan Emblem from the workbench and handed it to Lin Rui, saying, "Lord, this is the emblem I’ve crafted following the blueprint. Since there’s only 25 units of Vibranium, I could only craft two. Embed a Spiritual Gem on it, and the emblem will be activated."
Lin Rui took out a Tier Three Spiritual Gem from his backpack and embedded it into the golden pansy flower core crafted from Vibranium.
A beam of spiritual energy flashed by, and the Golden Pansy Clan Emblem began to glow with spiritual luminescence on its petals.
[Golden Pansy Clan Emblem (Tier Three): The clan emblem is the devout belief, the spiritual ho, and the morale booster for every soldier. The sight of the emblem is a source of pride and combat motivation for soldiers. Willpower 1, Loyalty 5, Morale 5, Resilience 5%, Endurance 5%. Acquired Trait: Clan Glory. Special: Tier Three Spiritual Gem Effect: Spiritual Energy 300, Life Value 300, Physical Defense 30, Spiritual Defense 30]
[Clan Glory: Under the clan’s glory, soldiers remain loyal and refuse to be defeated. Willpower determination modified by 110%, corrosive damage -1/second. Emblem quantity 100, team damage 1%, damage reduction 1%. Emblem quantity 1000, team damage 3%, damage reduction 3%. Emblem quantity 10000, team damage 5%, damage reduction 5%.]
Quite powerful indeed.
If the quantity is stacked, it becos a strategic-level treasure that the territory can craft independently.
Though the cost is sowhat high, requiring 10 units of Vibranium and a Spiritual Gem.
Spiritual Gems are manageable; they’re obtainable by slaying monsters and opening treasure chests. But Vibranium is akin to Mithril, Gems, and Crystals, with no stable output.
Lin Rui said, "I will acquire Vibranium for you in the market. With sufficient resources, prioritize crafting the clan emblem. In spare ti, craft the Cold-Forged Longsword; how many can you craft per day?"
Lorne quickly replied, "Lord, Cold-Forged Longsword doesn’t require any special materials. It can form simply by low-temperature forging iron ore and continuous hitting. The principle is to use the hamr to infuse spiritual power into the ore, enhancing the spirituality and quality of the swords. With the Steel Benevolent Father’s blessing, my crafting speed is very fast. If working at full capacity, I can craft two swords a day. But the problem is my spiritual energy value is limited, preventing production at maximum efficiency. Crafting one Cold-Forged Longsword requires a long rest; in between, I can only forge ordinary-level items."
Lin Rui glanced at his 60 points of Spiritual Energy, waved his hand generously, and said, "I will ask the Woodland Fairy to help you continuously recover spiritual energy value; you just focus on forging enhanced-level weapons."
"If that’s the case, with my 22 points of physique value, I can forge at least four Cold-Forged Longswords a day."
Four enhanced-level weapons daily add up to twelve thousand Realm Coins.
The territory finally has a bit of farming fun. Even if Lin Rui does nothing, there’s a daily inco of over ten thousand Realm Coins and over ten thousand food units.
Lin Rui encouraged Lorne a few tis and then left the Blacksmith Shop with two emblems.
"Lord, Lord, Lundestadte..." Lin Rui had just stepped out of the Blacksmith Shop when Duncan ca rushing over at full speed.
"What about Lundestadte?" Lin Rui asked with concern.
"Lundestadte has returned successfully after advancing, but he, he’s almost at his end." Duncan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
Lin Rui imdiately rushed over, surrounded by a group of knights, concernedly looking at Lundestadte, lying pale on the ground.
