CHAPTER 152: CHAPTER 99: 3-STAR ARMOR - DARK ROCK, EXPLORING THE RELIC

In the blink of an eye, the fresh blood was completely consumed, and the grayish-brown sheepskin scroll before him had returned to its original state.

Bulin closed his eyes, silently digesting for a moment before reopening them. This bearded man patted his chest and said.

"Sir!"

"The forging technique for this set of armor is quite ingenious. Using it as a reference, within half a month, I will surely produce armor suitable for the Cold-blooded Cavalry!"

This 3 Stars level armor design is merely a reference.

His tone was filled with strong confidence.

After half a month of research and experimentation on how to forge armor for the Cold-blooded Cavalry, he had a relatively complete plan in mind.

Moreover, as he gradually acquired the knowledge passed down by the sages in his mind, even without this incident, the blacksmith shop could start forging by the end of the month.

The foundational knowledge inherited from the Fray people over countless years cannot be rivaled by an additional forging blueprint.

Lear nodded with satisfaction, it was reassuring to have everything go this smoothly.

"Very well, if you need any supplies, just tell Bain, and everything will be prioritized for the blacksmith shop!"

"Yes, sir!"

Bulin responded straightforwardly.

After coming to Weilu City, whether it was daily necessities, housing, or working environment, everything was first-class.

Compared to the days of being imprisoned by the rotten Centaur in a dark dungeon for forging, it was like a dream life.

If he did not achieve something, he felt he wouldn’t be able to face anyone.

Let alone the high expectations the sir had for him!

With that matter settled, Lear instructed Isa to return to the City Hall first.

At the same time, he called Bain over.

"How many vacancies are there in the residential areas currently?"

"About half."

The Wetland Lizardman warriors do not reside in the residential area, currently only the Mud Swamp People, Deltha people, and Fray people have moved in.

"Clear out a batch to let the Dark Night Elf reside."

"And what about that batch of Unicorns we got from the Wilderness Blood Bandits?"

"They are being grazed in the eastern part of the territory."

"Allocate 150 for the Dark Night Elf to ride, I will incorporate them into the battle sequence later."

The best way to assimilate them is to have them follow the army into battle, where it’s easier to cultivate loyalty amidst the flames of war.

It also makes it convenient to monitor their movements at any time.

With the Divine Format, he could clearly discern their emotions, and should there be any thoughts of betrayal, he could respond immediately.

"Yes!"

Having given his instructions, Lear contemplated for a moment and continued to inquire.

"Now report the construction status of Weilu City to me overall."

Bain immediately became serious; if this were done poorly, it’d be embarrassing under a superior’s assessment.

After organizing his words, he spoke solemnly.

"Sir, currently we have a total of 100 three-story residential buildings, all built in the northern living area as previously planned."

"Later on, we can continue to expand and increase the number to 300 buildings."

"If it exceeds this range, the fish ponds need to be moved outward to expand the land area."

"But with the Starry Sky Vine, it can extend outward at any time."

Lear nodded.

buildings, with each having 6 rooms, equates to 1800 rooms, each room capable of housing a family of four, which translates to six to seven thousand people.

It’s sufficient to meet the short-term expansion needs.

"In the eastern part, the planned military district is currently constructing barracks to accommodate the Wetland Lizardman and Fierce Wild Lizard, and the Cold-blooded Cavalry’s feeding grounds have already been built."

"The initial construction of the barracks is expected to accommodate 3000 people and can be completed by the end of the month."

"It is also equipped with relatively complete housing areas for mounts."

"In the southern area, the industrial district...the Blacksmith Shop, Alchemy Workshop, and Tailor Shop have all been completed."

Bain reported methodically.

"The Blacksmith Shop, managed by the Fray people, currently can barely meet our needs."

"The Alchemy Workshop is managed by Donia, but currently, she is the only Alchemist in the territory, so it hasn’t officially started operating."

"The Tailor Shop has recruited over 20 people to handle the everyday clothing needs of the territory, but it lacks the raw materials for fabric production, so it mainly focuses on repairs while also handling some furniture and daily goods construction, making the work rather scattered."

"In the western part, the commercial district has not yet commenced construction."

"Additionally, the central area has a designated Knowledge Square for theatrical performances and imparting knowledge."

Speaking of that, his tone became tinged with emotion.

"Sir, those Swamp Boggart are truly gifts from the goddess; using them to impart knowledge has worked fantastically!"

Education has always been a long-term investment, the results of which might not be seen until ten or even twenty years later.

But in just half a month.

All residents of Weilu City have mastered at least 400 words for reading and writing!

Which is completely sufficient for daily use.

This is invaluable knowledge indeed.

With this, the quality of talent visibly improved during the recent recruitment for City Hall staff.

Because of that, he gritted his teeth and slowed down the recruitment process, thinking that in a month or so, perhaps higher-tier talents could be available.

Having heard the report, Lear gained a more accurate understanding of the overall progress of the territory’s development.

Listening to the final sentiment, he nodded approvingly, deeply acknowledging the role of the Swamp Boggart during this period.

Knowledge is the ladder to wisdom, significantly enhancing cognitive abilities.

It’s of profound importance to the territory.

Knowledge is productivity.

After contemplating, his tone grew a bit heavier.

"Once the construction is complete, build the Heroic Spirit Hall near the City Hall."

"The deeds of our fallen heroes should be known to everyone."

"In the future, the theater troupe should also rehearse those deeds into plays, performing and singing praises for everyone to know their sacrifices!"
