Emperor of Arcane

His rough fingers groped the hard ore hard, feeling the sharp and tough touch on it.

Bronzebeard threw the ore excitedly, rubbed it several times like a treasure, and then turned around with excitement:

"Yes, this is indeed a newly developed fine gold ore, and the quality is quite high!"

"Hiccup~ If the lord is willing to give me 10 kilograms of fine gold to make a hammer for blacksmithing and a two-handed ax for fighting, I will tell you the technology of smelting fine gold!"

Although he smelled of alcohol, Bronzebeard's words were filled with the wisdom of a dwarf.

Looking at the ore piled into a small hill, Matthew smiled at Bronzebeard and patted Yaya's back gently.

Under the horrified gaze of the latter, Yaya picked him up, making him scream in fright.

"No, we dwarves shouldn't go to high places. Let me down quickly. I can walk on my own!"

"Where are we going?"

"Lord, please reply quickly!"

"I don't want 10 kilograms of fine gold, just give me 5 kilograms..."

"ah……"

"4 kilograms...can't be any less!"

“3kg!!”

"I just need to build a two-handed axe. I have a spare hammer..."

As soon as Bronzebeard finished speaking, he found himself on solid ground again.

He gasped in fright, wiped the cold sweat that had not appeared on his forehead, and looked at Yaya who was smiling at him in shock, with a helpless wry smile on his face.

Before Bronzebeard could react, Matthew had already walked past him.

The shrewd dwarf just turned around and froze on the spot.

He stared at the small cave not far away with eyes the size of copper bells, staring at the slightly shining golden color on the cave wall, and murmured to himself:

"Is this an adamantine mine?"

"If it is really a mine of fine gold, then we will be rich!"

"Dear Lord, I have to reintroduce myself to you."

"My name is Bronzebeard. I am a high-level dwarf warrior, high-level blacksmith, and master-level prospector..."

Before he could finish speaking, Matthew had already reached the entrance of the fine gold mine, surrounded by various signs of burning and excavation.

Bronzebeard shook his head repeatedly, his face full of disdain, and sighed:

"These trolls are so stupid, they actually use such primitive methods to collect fine gold!"

"I'm afraid the troll's smelting technology is not up to standard. Even if they dig up a large amount of fine gold, they can only stare at it in a warehouse..."

As he spoke, the guy reached out and touched the very hard rock wall of the mine, looking at the light fine gold powder, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Matthew, who had obtained enough information, finally confirmed his judgment:

"A small fine gold vein requires 10,000 kobolds to fully mine. It can produce 10 tons of fine gold ore every day and can be mined for a total of four years!"

There are a total of 40 tons of fine gold ore. If you master the fine gold smelting technology provided by Bronze Beard, you can probably purify 400 kilograms of fine gold!

This is an amazing resource!

The value of adamantine is equal to that of mithril.

Every 1 gram costs 10 gold coins!

Regardless of armor or weapons, as long as a little fine gold is added, their hardness and defense will be greatly improved.

The value will also double!

Most adamantine weapons and armors usually contain no more than 100 grams of adamantine.

400 kilograms is more than the entire Netheril Empire produced in 10 years.

This shows how "greedy" Bronzebeard, a somewhat clever dwarf, is.

However, Matthew smiled and nodded in agreement just when he was a little uneasy:

"I can give you 3 kilograms, but you must not only provide the smelting method, but also teach ten apprentices step by step."

Before Bronzebeard's face showed an expression of surprise, Matthew waved to Yaya.

Under his horrified gaze, Yaya stretched out his claws and easily dug out most of the extremely solid adamantine ore.

Bronzebeard couldn't help but swallowed his saliva. He looked at the hundreds of kilograms of fine gold ore, and the greed in his mind immediately disappeared without a trace. He quickly patted his chest and promised:

"It's no problem at all. I'll take care of this, and I can also point out their forging techniques... ah..."

Before Bronzebeard could finish speaking, Yaya grabbed him again and flew towards the Troll Castle again amidst his horrified shouts.

As for this location, no one will know about it except the kobolds who will come secretly to dig.

Although the gold was extremely valuable, Matthew would not sell it.

Such strategic-level scarce resources usually require a much higher price to purchase.

Moreover, such a large amount of wealth can easily attract other people to covet it.

If Bronzebeard hadn't been smarter just now, Matthew wouldn't mind letting him live in the Gulf Territory for a few more years.

Dwarves live long anyway!

With this batch of fine gold, Matthew can create better weapons and equipment for the high-level professionals in the Gulf Territory.

Maintain the advantage over the enemy's weapons and equipment, and first further improve the combat effectiveness of the Gulf Territory soldiers.

Of course, no one but the user will know the secrets hidden in their weapons and equipment.

Just like the rest of the Gulf Territory's secrets!

"Teleport these trolls away in batches, send one person over, and ask them to send more crossbow arrows and alchemical fuel."

While arranging the defense, Angela began to regulate supplies.

Looking at the city walls that had been repaired bit by bit, she still had a little worry in her eyes.

The location of the troll castle is quite good, with steep slopes on the left and right sides, making it difficult for the enemy to deploy a large number of troops to attack.

To the south is the Troll Valley, which has been roughly occupied by the Gulf Territory.

The city gate is strong and the city wall is very high, so it is basically in a safe state.

Only the north side was in disrepair. Fortunately, the Gulf Territory was well prepared. After capturing the castle, the 5,000 kobolds squatting in the pit quickly rushed to the castle.

They repaired the foundation of the city wall as quickly as possible, and then wanted to heighten and reinforce it.

They did not spare the outer perimeter of the city wall.

A spacious moat has begun to take shape.

Referring to the Murloc Castle, they will also build protruding bastions and towering sentry towers to complete a multi-directional defensive arrangement.

The city's defense issues will be resolved and strengthened in the next few days.

The only thing that worries Angela is that the troll castle is too big.

Even if half of the two thousand soldiers were to guard the northern city wall, it would still be a bit sparse.

If the Gurubashi troll tribe sends too many troll soldiers, it will be difficult for the soldiers to defend it.

Of course, Matthew knew all about her worries. Before launching the plan, everyone had not discussed it to this point.

Of course, no one expected that the plan would go so smoothly!

But next, they still have a tough battle to fight!
