Tianyun Lao Mao
Chapter 1820 Silver Wings Promotion
"An advanced blacksmith shop?" Sorrowful Smile asked in astonishment as she examined the attributes of the heavy design blueprint that Shi Feng had produced.
She already knew quite a bit about advanced buildings.
Any advanced building possessed capabilities unmatched by ordinary buildings, each with its own unique features, making them exceedingly difficult to acquire.
However, the crafting materials and land area required for an advanced blacksmith shop were simply outrageous.
Not to mention the two thousand units of the highly precious magic ore, it also required one thousand advanced magic cores and five hundred crystallized earth flames.
Magic ore was still manageable; the Zero Wing Guild had been collecting quite a bit recently. But taking out two thousand units at once would still be quite a strain. As for advanced magic cores, they were even more precious, rare materials with a chance to drop only from Bosses in fifty-plus-member team dungeons.
On the market, an advanced magic core already sold for five gold coins. One thousand cores would be five thousand gold…
Crystallized earth flames were even more precious. These items didn't drop in dungeons, and could only be obtained from the wild, found in greater quantities in fiery mountain ranges. They were one of the primary materials for crafting advanced fire resistance equipment, costing around five gold coins each. However, due to their rarity, they were unobtainable even with money, and could only be gathered little by little by guild members.
The guild's current stockpile was less than seven hundred. Suddenly needing five hundred was a huge blow.
In addition, building an advanced blacksmith shop required ten thousand magic crystals.
A rough calculation showed that it would cost nearly thirty thousand gold coins to build the advanced blacksmith shop…
Zero Wing Guild was currently developing rapidly, needing money in all aspects. If it weren't for the existence of Zero Wing City, its income and expenses would probably be unbalanced. Now, spending more than thirty thousand gold coins worth of materials to build an advanced blacksmith shop was hardly a wise move.
But even if Sorrowful Smile wanted to say something, Shi Feng had already assigned the construction work. As for the materials, he had already retrieved them all. It only required fifty advanced builders to begin construction directly.
Through the battle with the two great adventurer teams, although some members of the main force had been killed and lost more than twenty pieces of equipment, as the victors, they gained even more.
Whether it was the Dark Hunters or the Shadow Claw, the members of these two great adventurer teams were all elites among elites, with extremely good equipment, only slightly inferior to Zero Wing's.
The difference was slight, but quantity could make up for quality.
From this battle alone, Zero Wing gained more than four hundred pieces of level 50 mithril equipment and more than sixty pieces of level 50 refined gold equipment.
After deducting compensation and rewards, Zero Wing made a net profit of more than ten thousand gold coins, and ten thousand gold coins would hardly buy so many top-quality equipment at this time.
Although the money earned could not completely make up for the cost of building the advanced blacksmith shop, building the advanced blacksmith shop was of great use.
Because any advanced building that was built could greatly increase the town's prosperity and reputation.
Currently, Silverwing Town's basic construction and security had been completed. What remained was to increase its reputation and prosperity over time.
However, building an advanced blacksmith shop was not easy. Not only did it require advanced builders, but also a player who had mastered advanced magic arrays, because building an advanced blacksmith shop required inscribing many magic arrays.
For a time, Shi Feng was seen inscribing magic arrays on the constructed walls and floors.
From the outside, a section of the outer area of Silverwing Town was suddenly surrounded and under construction, immediately attracting the attention of many resting players.
Silverwing Town had now become the most bustling town in the Orc Empire. Many guild members who came to the Orc Empire to level up and wanted to capture fortresses would rest in Silverwing Town. Even if there was a considerable distance from the fortress they wanted to capture, they would choose Silverwing Town over other towns.
Because resting in Silverwing Town allowed them to gain double experience storage, which greatly helped with leveling. Secondly, there was also an arena here.
The arena's high magic environment itself was nothing, but the key was that players from various kingdoms and empires came to the Orc Empire to level up and fight each other, which greatly helped to improve themselves, and the business opportunities were also great.
Silverwing Town had already faintly become the number one town in the Orc Empire. If it weren't for the town's own space limitations, the number of players coming here could easily exceed one and a half million.
"Hey! Silverwing Town is already crowded enough. It's not easy to have a large open space, and now they're going to build houses again."
"Yeah! The more houses are built, the fewer players can be accommodated. I wonder if I'll be able to squeeze in tomorrow."
The players resting outside the bar couldn't help frowning slightly as they looked at the building, which was the size of a stadium.
Due to the problem of too many players in Silverwing Town, the Zero Wing Guild adjusted its policy to ensure the normal operation of Silverwing Town. Except for members of the Zero Wing Guild, players on the street could only stay in Silverwing Town for ten hours. After ten hours, if they didn't leave, they would be forcibly invited out or directly killed by the NPC guards.
But even so, Silverwing Town was still crowded, and finally, they had to limit the number of players in Silverwing Town to 800,000. People who wanted to enter later had to wait for people inside to leave. However, as more and more buildings were built in Silverwing Town, this number limit was getting smaller and smaller.
Time passed until Shi Feng finished inscribing the last core magic array, which took a full eight hours. And it only took fifty advanced architects four hours to build the entire advanced blacksmith shop.
"Finally done." Shi Feng looked at the blacksmith shop, which was three stories high and more than twenty meters tall, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Compared to those one-story blacksmith shops that were less than three or four meters high, the blacksmith shop in front of him was definitely high-end, atmospheric, and upscale. This could be seen from the appearance alone, and the interior was even more powerful.
Because he had personally inscribed the magic array, he still knew a little about the functions of the magic array.
The advanced blacksmith shop in front of him not only had the ability to repair weapons and equipment and customize weapons and equipment, but also had the ability to disassemble weapons and equipment. This disassembly was not like the material disassembly of enchantment. The disassembly of the advanced blacksmith shop was to extract some of the usable materials from the weapons and equipment, which could be used to make other weapons and equipment. Although the recycling rate was not high, it was still better than selling directly to the NPCs.
Once this function came out, it would definitely attract countless players to flock here to disassemble materials, and they could charge a certain handling fee.
"Okay, let's open it now!" Shi Feng then clicked on the system directory bar of the advanced blacksmith shop and chose to open the blacksmith shop.
As the surrounding magic curtain disappeared, a building more than twenty meters high was displayed in front of everyone.
And Shi Feng suddenly heard a system notification sound in his ear.
System: The reputation and security of Silverwing Town have reached the standard for promotion to an intermediate town. Do players choose to promote?
"Great! It's just as I guessed."
Shi Feng couldn't help but rejoice when he heard the system notification sound. He had been waiting for this moment for too long, and then he clicked to promote Silverwing Town.
