Chapter 28 Cat’S Eye In The Dark Night
Not long after Gloin left, Xivi went to the bottom of the lake under Nina's guidance and found a relatively exposed mithril mine. According to Nina's estimation, the output was about 10 million tons.
This is already a very good output. After all, when making weapons and equipment, just adding a little bit of mithril can enhance the properties of the equipment in all aspects.
Compared with radium gold ore, mithril ore is less valuable, but is relatively more versatile.
Radium gold ore is generally used as a staff or special alchemy material for thunder mages. It is a rare magic material. The more famous one is the thunder alchemy potion, which is considered to be the only potion that can be used by alchemists in the Kane continent.
However, the Thunder Alchemy Potion is not for humans to eat, but for monsters, such as griffins and flying dragons. After consuming the Thunder Alchemy Potion, there is a great chance of mutating into thunder and lightning attributes, thus becoming a powerful magic mutant monster. .
The side effect is that you will be weak from the metal poisoning for three to seven days.
Xiwei is already planning to spread the pie for the players.
An announcement will be made at that time:
After changing profession, the flying dragon is ridden by others but still has few skills?
Come and try this Thunder Alchemy Potion. Today is a big reward. The king will give you benefits. The original price of Thunder Alchemy Potion of xxx has dropped to a lower price today. You can exchange it for it immediately if you only need xxx!
With it, you will become a thunder venom flying dragon, the poison is charged with electricity, bringing the most sour experience to your enemies.
…
While waiting for Gloin, Xivi stopped running around. Instead, he took Roy and Nina to look at the scenery by the Winter Lake. In fact, they were not the only ones here, and they could occasionally be seen on the lake. Fishing boats rowing by.
Fishing was prohibited in Winter Lake in the past.
Because the lake was the private property of the lord at that time, except for the castle chef who wanted to get ingredients, any farmer found fishing here would be beaten up.
Not only did they have to hand over their harvest, they were also fined, and if they didn't have any money, they were hanged on the city wall.
All this did not change until Xiwei took office. At first, many farmers did not believe this. Xiwei even sent soldiers disguised as farmers to go fishing.
Gradually, the civilians discovered that the lord would not arrest the fishermen.
In order for their children to eat more meat and make their lives better, more and more people have the courage to join the fishing team.
"Huh? It seems to be the lord!"
"What are you talking about? Now I have to call you His Majesty the King."
The voices of two soft and waxy little lolita came from behind Xiwei. When he looked back, he found that he still recognized the people, they were Mei Duo and Bai Ya, two demi-human little lolita.
Mei Duo had bare feet and was holding a basket in her hand. Her bare calves were covered with mud, but she was smiling very happily and waving her arms to Xi Wei, Roy and others who were looking over.
In addition to going to class to learn etiquette and daily skills, the little carrot-headed maids in the castle can rest once every three days. Today is the time to rest, so she went out to fish with Bai Ya.
"Your Majesty the King!"
The two little lolita put on their shoes and ran up to Xi Wei, smiling and performing a skirt-raising ceremony without the maid skirt.
Xiwei nodded, with a gentle smile on his face, touched the heads of the two little lolita and asked:
"Is it just the two of you? It's not safe to come so far away."
"No! No!" Mei Duo squinted her eyes, stood on her toes, and shook her head against Xi Wei's warm palm.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, my brother is here too. He and the pot-bellied uncle from the castle kitchen are here to buy fish for you~"
Bai Ya added next to him, with a happy smile on his face, the ears on his head twitching, and the wolf tail behind him almost shook out an afterimage.
Xiwei couldn't help but feel a little sad when he saw this scene.
I remember that these demi-humans were very hostile to me at the beginning, thinking that I was a devil, a cruel lord, and a murderer who prevented demi-humans from embracing hope.
By some strange coincidence, he cast his gaze on Ruoyi, only to see the fox-eared girl covering her mouth and snickering, her pretty face red, and the affection in her eyes gentler than the water of Winter Lake.
"Your Majesty the King, we are going back!"
Mei Duo and Bai Ya reluctantly rubbed Xi Wei's palm, somewhat unfinished.
After enjoying the head-butt killing of their favorite Lord King for a while, the two little lolita were satisfied and had bragging rights when they returned to the castle, but now they had to leave.
"We have been away for more than ten minutes. If we don't go back, my brother and the others will be worried, and they will also cause trouble for you."
"Your Majesty the King, this is the most beautiful stone we found today. I give it to you~"
Bai Ya said, carefully taking out a crystal clear stone from the pocket of her clothes and holding it up in front of Xi Wei like a treasure.
The stone shines with colorful luster in the sun, and there is a light red vertical bar in the middle, which looks like an opal, very beautiful.
Maybe in the eyes of Bai Ya and Mei Duo, it was just a stone. Even Xiwei thought so at first, until the system prompt sounded suddenly:
【Ding! Discovery of the divine miraculous object “The Cat’s Eye Stone of the Dark Night”]
[Note: Contains the divinity of the goddess of the night, maybe she will like it if you give it to You Ye]
Xiwei: "...⊙ω⊙"
Let's forget about the title of Son of Destiny. Ye Hao is not the Son of Destiny at all, okay?
When they went out for an outing, they met the little carrot heads from the castle. They picked up a stone and gave it to themselves as a magical object.
This kind of thing is simply outrageous.
However, it was unintentional. If Xiwei had not saved Meadow, he had not saved the demi-humans, or he had taken them as slaves after accepting them.
He might not meet Mei Duo and Bai Ya today, and even if he did, they wouldn't give him the stone.
Xiwei doesn't believe in fate, but he believes that every act of kindness, every effort and contribution he makes is a gift to his future self.
Everything is due to cause and effect, and this divine artifact should be in his pocket.
…
Xiwei watched the two reluctant little lolita leave and immediately began to study the stone in his hand.
First of all, the system prompts also contain a lot of information.
First, Youye is the container of the goddess of darkness.
Second, the cat's eye stone contains the divine nature of Dark Night, which can promote the improvement of Dark Night's strength.
But despite this, Xi Wei couldn't completely believe the system's words, because the system didn't say whether the stone contained the sleeping will of the goddess of the night.
If so, then giving it to You Ye would be harming her.
The specific details still have to wait until he goes back to check the information to see what the artifact of the goddess of the night is, and what artifacts the other awakened maids have corresponding to the gods.
In case the boat capsizes in the gutter one day, we don’t even know.
Just as Xiwei was deep in thought while holding Royi's soft hand, a "ding-ding-ding-ding-ding" sound came from the distance.
He looked up and saw the rocky beach in the distance.
The dwarf forging master Gloin's waist was covered with more than a dozen kinds of tools, and he was walking slowly carrying a forging furnace seven or eight times larger than him.
