Chapter 64: The Blacksmith's Shop

  Gudong's curious creature crawled out of the magic array on his hand. It slowly climbed onto the white gold scale, stretched out its grayish adhesive, and corroded it with acidic liquid, only to find that its acid had no effect on this scale at all, and at most, it could only wipe away the dust on the scale.

  At this moment, both Gua and Gu were extremely curious about the scale. Was it really from the body of the Dragon God? How powerful was it?

  Valley melon became even more excited, to know that the only weakness of the dragon repairer was the reverse scale, but now he had the first reverse scale, and it was actually the strongest dragon god's scale! That is to say, the biggest shortcoming on Valley Melon's body has been made up for in an unimaginable way!

  Kuagu couldn't help but use two spells brought by this scale, one was Dragon's Fury and the other was Metal Floating Shield.

  His mind sank into the scales, and it seemed to have triggered some kind of magical mechanism, making Guagua feel that he was facing two options. One was a sound wave-like spreading in all directions, which must be the Dragon's Roar. The other was a floating shield, which was obviously the Metal Floating Shield.

  Kuagu tried the dragon's power first, and the magic poured into the options of the dragon's power. Suddenly, a strong force surged from the depths of the scales, like an explosive flame that burst forth from the depths of his soul. It was like a powerful torrent that gushed out from the top of his head, from his ears, nose, and throat, instantly covering himself and everything around him within a range of about ten meters.

  People outside this range, the closer they are, the more they feel a sense of awe and reverence, with an illusion that they cannot help but worship. Many people can't help but produce a sense of piety towards this sacred and powerful force. And many evil camps, the spiritual light on their bodies is no longer so dark and bloody, but has become somewhat lighter. Of course, it's still far from the good camp.

  In the midst of this dragon's might, Long Wei felt it even more clearly. He could feel the holy light of that so-called Bahamut, and he could also feel the powerful divine majesty of this god who far surpassed the abilities of the dragon tribe. It almost made him kneel down and completely surrender at the feet of this dragon god.

  In Palletsburg, everyone who felt this change was more or less intimidated, and when the dragon's wrath came, they were so frightened that they could hardly stand still, with only a mood of worship, and there was no way to arouse the emotion of resistance, let alone take up arms to fight again.

  The gourd shook his head instantly, waking up from this feeling. His two lifetimes of not being human clearly knew that within this dragon's might, there was also a kind of mental magic similar to persuasion techniques. He closed off his own heart, only sensing the power of the dragon's might, without experiencing its influence on the human spirit.

  The shockwave generated by Long Wei was shaking Guagua's body and lungs, his bones, muscles, blood vessels, and internal organs were all being adjusted and sublimated in the shockwave. Guagua could feel that the impurities inside his body were being separated and gathered into his lower abdomen through his excretory system, making him feel an urgent need to relieve himself, so he rushed to the toilet immediately and relieved himself.

  After Long Wei was thoroughly defeated, Guagua re-examined his own body and found that his physical quality had improved again. The scales on his body became more radiant and shiny. Moreover, he discovered that the three dog-headed men beside him on the crystal ball were also shining with a brilliant light. The stains on their bodies seeped out from the scales, and Guagua immediately fetched water to wash them clean.

  When Gua Gu again manipulated the crystal ball, he found that his operation was smoother, as if Long Wei's washing had increased the running speed of the three dog-headed men, and it seemed that the dragon power he emitted made the three dog-headed men more submissive to him.

  At this point, Gua's heart moved, as if he had grasped something. If he really controlled the crystal ball, what would it be like? He didn't know that the crystal ball was just the underlying control system of the wizard tower, and the real high-level control system was actually upstairs, in Xilang's hands.

  Then, Guagua tried the metal shield again.

  His spirit sank into the metal shield, and immediately a metal round shield was excited. This round shield rotated evenly around his body. When his spirit moved, the shield also floated with it, blocking in front of him. Looking at the shield's appearance, it should be very solid. Guagua didn't dare to find someone to test the shield immediately, so he just played on the second floor.

  After a moment, this shield turned into a handful of flowing light and disappeared.

  The melon rubbed its mouth, still satisfied. Immersing his mind again, he saw that in the column of metal shields, one shield had turned gray, meaning that with this experiment just now, he had already consumed a shield's worth of times.

  But Guagua didn't mind, he already knew the location of a huge ore vein, and as long as that open-pit mine was mined, there would be as much metal as they wanted.

  He smiled triumphantly.

  On the third day, Montesquieu and his party did not have time to discuss an alliance with Guagua, but instead reached an agreement with a merchant group from the Fa Shi Association. They sold some animal hides and gems through their channels and purchased some practical war resources from the Fa Shi merchant group, which would be delivered next month. Both parties were very pleased with the transaction and agreed to trade more gems and supplies in the future.

  On the fourth day, both sides agreed on how to cooperate in the event of war, what rights and obligations they had, how to deal with defeat, victory, and the distribution of spoils of war. The agreement was signed by Montesquieu and Kukawa under the witness of the goddess of justice, and from then on, the alliance between the two sides officially came into effect.

  On the fifth day, Meng Dezhou returned to Xihaote Castle with his entourage, while Harte stayed in Pailaisi and commanded the craftsmen and blacksmiths who had been sent over to build various workshops, starting the renovation and reconstruction of Pailaisi under priority resource allocation.

  "Respected Master, the ironworks have been constructed according to your requirements." A man who looked like an iron tower said respectfully. The man's arm was as thick as a pumpkin's waist, with a resolute chin, and it could be seen how he was when forging iron.

  "Very good." Gua Guan took a look at the blacksmith's shop, which was fully equipped and had great potential for upgrading. It could accommodate five regular blacksmiths and twenty-five apprentices working inside. Gua Guan clapped his hands, and ten ice claws moved all the seized Frost Giant's Xuan Tie ore from the warehouse to the storage yard next to the blacksmith's shop.
