Chapter 132 Melting Gold and Forging Armor

In the lord's cottage in Pingdingshan.

Rhodes's soul returned to reality, and he opened his eyes.

"The princess of the Ice and Snow Kingdom is actually Alice." Rhodes rubbed his eyes to relieve the fatigue brought on by the exhaustion of his spiritual energy.

After thinking about Alice's situation, he couldn't immediately tell whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

From his own perspective, this is undoubtedly a great thing.

Alice, as the princess there, possesses amazing power to bestow blessings.

Even powerful third-tier dragons have to give way.

As her brother, Rod could rightfully inherit this power.

It will efficiently accelerate his growth in the Northern Remnant.

But for Alice, this means she will be plunged into the deepest part of the vortex of contradictions.

In particular, the awakening of the King of White Frost is connected to reality.

The Kingdom of Rosa is about to launch a war in the North, and turmoil is imminent.

If Alice's identity were exposed, given Rhodes's understanding of the bottom line of the kingdom's nobles, the threat from reality would be no less than that from the Northern Remnant.

"A guardian knight?" Rhodes muttered to himself, then after thinking about it carefully, he realized it wasn't actually that complicated.

The remnants of the North are protected by a blessed power.

In reality, his purpose in going to the harsh north to serve as a pioneer knight was always clear.

Take control of your own destiny.

And this naturally includes Alice as well.

As long as we control the iron hooves of the army that can crush the city walls, what does it matter if our identities are exposed? Who would dare to offend us?

The initial anxiety gradually subsided, and Rhodes, as usual, inspected the construction progress of the territory.

Nourished by the magic pool, the magic fields are thriving, but the various magical plants are still some time away from being harvested.

The castle, built in the center of the mountaintop, is now largely complete.

The artisans are currently carrying out intricate carvings inside.

In about a month, this six-story luxury castle will be officially completed.

Rhodes didn't pay much attention to the castle, since he was quite content living alone in his cottage.

The territory has no mistress yet, and guests are received in the river mouth town, so the castle here doesn't have much significance for the time being.

He then toured the cultivated land in the river valley plain.

The first batch of hybrid highland barley there is growing well.

Through pollination and hybridization by icewing bees, more barley seeds suitable for cultivation grow on the wheat ears.

After concluding his inspection of agriculture, Rod began to focus his attention on the military.

The new recruits absorbed during the large-scale expansion have been successfully integrated into the military system.

The Alvis family cooperated fully with this.

Despite the many discordant voices that have emerged from the former aristocratic groups.

However, under the powerful suppression of the territorial knights, they did not make much of a splash.

In the realm of Warcraft, the five Icebreakers, after two months of development and nourishment from a large amount of high-grade barley feed, have successfully evolved.

Apart from the continued lack of white steel equipment, Rhodes's previous army building plans, including both cavalry and infantry, as well as extraordinary units, have been successfully completed.

"Weapon production." Rhodes turned his attention to the territory's biggest problem at present.

The Magic Steel Factory is working at full capacity to produce steel cannons.

The blacksmiths in Mole Town are good at forging ordinary weapons, but making precious white steel armor is just a pipe dream.

Upon arriving at the laboratory in the room, Rhodes sat down, recalling his state when he received the blessing of Pegasus.

To be precise, it's about my understanding of using the Heavenly Scale Armor skill, one of the three skills provided by the Blessing.

Rhodes took out his experimental log and began to outline his next experimental plan.

Outside of one's own soul, there is a layer of white steel armor constructed of spirituality.

In the very first village, they learned the complete method of forging stainless steel from the dwarf blacksmith.

The Heavenly Scale Armor can utilize magic to construct immortal armor.

If I could simplify this skill and combine it with knowledge of white steel...

In theory, a completely new alchemical sorcery can be constructed—the molten gold armor.

In other words, as long as there is steel and mithril, the two can be quickly fused together using magical trajectories and shaped into a white steel armor.

Previously, Rhodes had learned a lot about changing the properties of materials from the [Magic Mechanism].

This is a perfect opportunity to combine it with the Heavenly Scale Armor and try it out here.

He sent his men a large quantity of steel ingots and mithril purchased at a high price.

Rhodes, controlling the magical flames of the Ash Furnace Rat, officially began his experimental research.

First, we need to construct a fusion magic trajectory to combine steel and mithril into one, turning them into white steel.

Rhodes recalled the forging techniques he had learned from the dwarven blacksmith.

And the skill he independently developed by combining his alchemical knowledge: [Material Fusion].

The sword Iceblade originated from this, combining the spine of the Ironspine Black Wolf and the ice claws of the Iceblade Fang Wolf.

Back then, Rhodes' technical skills were limited, and he could only forge first-tier inferior weapons, but things are very different now.

With a deeper understanding of material fusion, Rhodes quickly and successfully fused stainless steel without the need for complicated auxiliary materials.

But this is not the final result; he needs to solidify this magical trajectory onto a furnace.

If this attempt succeeds, it means that he will not need to operate it personally.

As long as the furnace is connected to the energy supply of the magic pool, throw steel and mithril into it.

It can continuously produce finished stainless steel.

The construction of the alchemy furnace is very complicated. To enable it to produce stainless steel on its own, it is necessary to understand the material activation part of the [Magic Mechanism].

Fortunately, Rhodes had a lot of mottled divinity left over, which was just right as spiritual material for revitalization.

This is the molten gold part of his newly designed sorcery, "Molten Gold Armor".

With the continuous supply of magic from the magic pool, and by conducting numerous experiments using the mottled divinity, this process did not hold Rhodes back for too long.

He gazed at the stainless steel furnace before him, a cube measuring three meters in length, width, and height.

The furnace has a two-meter-diameter inlet in the middle, which, combined with the reddish-brown refractory material inside, resembles a gaping mouth.

Occasionally, traces of wriggling can be found on the inner wall.

Rhodes picked up a steel ingot the size of his palm and a small piece of mithril about the size of a fingernail, and threw them into it.

The next second, the upper and lower walls of the furnace feed inlet suddenly closed.

Like a mouth chewing food, it vibrates back and forth.

About ten minutes later, the feed inlet reopened, and a piece of white steel ingot, slightly smaller than the steel ingot, was ejected.

Rod picked up the stainless steel ingot and examined its quality.

After confirming that everything was perfect, I smiled happily.

In fact, reaching this point can already be considered a great success.

As long as we can produce stainless steel on our own, the process of forging armor can be completely outsourced to Magic Steel Factory.

Due to the exceptional properties of white steel, ordinary blacksmiths could not forge it; only dwarves could handle it.

But that's not a problem for Rhodes.

Using the magical flames of the Ash Furnace Rat and the stamping of a large power hammer, weaponsmiths can quickly produce white steel armor.
