The old man you see with your phone is highly suspicious.

To pass on everything I have to this university.

Unfortunately, he has accumulated too little knowledge. Firstly, he is only a near-4th-tier mage. He wants to accumulate enough knowledge to fill an entire library with all kinds of magic. Secondly, he wants to build up his magic level to near-5th-tier so that he can open his own small academy.

Perhaps we can invite some old friends to be professors, and our old friends from Greece can also come and be physical education teachers or security guards.

However, it's too early now. Xue believes he's still young and can keep pushing forward for a while longer.

“Founding an academy? That’s a great idea. If I were to fulfill my last wish, I would also like to pass on some of my knowledge to future generations.” The old man from the interstellar column smiled, and the two sat down and started chatting.

……

Throughout the day, Xue spent most of his time chatting with the old man, and before he knew it, it was time for school to end.

The old man was a very talkative person, perhaps most old people are talkative, but he had forgotten too many things, so he could only keep trying to find topics to chat about with Xue's Law.

Xue also took the opportunity to tell the old man his story with the hero, explaining that he had decided to find the interstellar fleet after he finished forging the hero's holy sword, and at the same time, return the holy sword to the old man.

The old man had no complaints and agreed to Xue's decision.

And then, the old man seemed to finally realize something. He picked up a short sword from under his clothes and said, "Is this short sword the same style as the holy sword you wanted?"

Xue Luding took the short sword and was shocked. Although it was a bit shorter, its style was not much different from the Holy Sword of the Hero Uncle. It was the same style and could be seen that it was made by the same craftsman.

He immediately returned the sword to the old man and asked, "Old man, is this your sword?"

“I remember something. This is a sword from my time. It seems to have been made by a friend of mine. He made a lot of them, weapons all over the mountains and fields… but I’ve forgotten his name…” The old man looked at the sword, seemingly very troubled, trying to remember the name of the sword’s owner.

"Don't be discouraged. Maybe you'll slowly remember when you return to the Starfleet," Xue said, adding, "Uncle, can I borrow your sword to trace its origins then?"

Having received confirmation, Xue Dinglu prepared to go home.

Tomorrow morning he plans to take his family to the Silver Kingdom Farmhouse Inn to take advantage of their grand opening promotions. Then he plans to spend 2-3 days forging a brand new Holy Sword and take the old man back to the Starship Squadron.

Chapter 301 The world is a giant makeshift operation

That evening, Xue Daolu returned to the world of beast-eared girls.

After all, the Holy Sword was destroyed here, and the only way to trace its origins and find its remnants is to rely on the world consciousness of this place.

After a long search, they finally found only the ashes of a mineral water bottle.

These are the only remaining parts of the Holy Sword; the rest are truly gone, the kind that even the world's consciousness cannot retrieve. It would seem simpler to have the world's consciousness bestow a brand new Holy Sword upon it.

Xue didn't complain. It was great to trade the Holy Sword for control of a Dragon King, but that was the price to pay.

So he simply gathered the ashes together, then took out the old man's short sword, which was in the same style as the holy sword, and said, "Old man, is the material of these powders the same as your short sword?"

"Let me see, they seem to be the same... They're both special alloys, but how could they be broken into such a state..." The old man looked at the powder in the water bottle and couldn't help but ask.

The powder was so finely broken that it resembled grains of sand. What kind of battle could have resulted in such a devastating outcome?

Xue Luding scratched his head sheepishly. It wasn't actually broken during the battle; he had deliberately scattered it.

“But that’s not enough. According to the units of your world, these can only be used to make a short sword that is less than 60 centimeters long. I remember you said before that the original version of the Holy Sword was 120 centimeters long, right?” The old man seemed to have some knowledge of weapon forging, as he looked at the powder of Xue’s Law and said.

Xue Luding was taken aback. Indeed, he compared the amount of powder in the bottle with his hand and found that it was far less than the weight of the Holy Sword at the time. Even if it were melted down and reforged, it would not be able to recreate the Holy Sword of the past.

Although the hero arrived with a broken sword that had lost its tip, that was because the tip had pierced the head of the Shub insect race and remained inside. After killing the Shub insect race, the tip returned to its original position and was reassembled into the subsequent Holy Sword of Salvation.

"Can I add some other ingredients?" Xue could only try another method.

"Hmm... adding a little bit of other materials wouldn't be a big problem, but it would probably require a filler with a higher degree of mystery..." the old man said, seemingly troubled.

"Is mystery enough?" Xue Dinglu suddenly felt that there wasn't much of a problem.

He searched every nook and cranny of the consciousness space, and after a long while, he finally found a dagger in the deepest part of the treasure room.

It was a dagger still stained with blood. Although it was a weapon given to it by the King of Troy, it had once been imbued with the scent of the thorns of the abyss and had later pierced Zeus's brother.

Therefore, this dagger carries a certain degree of mystery surrounding "god-slaying" and "reproduction deprivation." Although it cannot yet become a Noble Phantasm, it is still a very good legendary weapon. It also fits the story of the Holy Sword killing insects, and it is obviously sufficient to serve as supplementary material for the Holy Sword of Salvation.

Xue Lude decided to cut the dagger, which had been stained with the blood of Zeus's second brother, into several pieces, put them into an iron can, and finally fill the gaps in the iron can with the original powder of the holy sword to make a steel billet for the Iron Can Horse.

Then they went to the Earth's core, where they used geothermal heat to forge and hammer the sword, finally hammering out the blade and quenching it using the magma from the Earth's core.

Although the process was abstract, the old man actually smiled and said that he had never tried this forging method when he was young. He found it very novel and urged Xue Dinglu to try it out. He was looking forward to seeing a brand new holy sword emerge.

Xue Lude guessed that the old man must have been a blacksmith, not just a veteran as he claimed. He even forged the short sword in the old man's hand and the predecessor of the hero's holy sword, but he had forgotten his past.

Only when Xue's law occasionally mentioned forging did the old man respond with a light in his eyes.

……

The following morning, today was the end of September and the first day of the 7-day holiday.

When I woke up in the morning, I saw that the hall was already full of people, all sitting together watching the TV playing online... "The Strange Adventures of Sildenas".

Xue's Law: "..."

What's going on? Why is everyone gathered here?

Upon seeing Xue Dinglu, Xiaolongniang almost came over to give him a headbutt again, which made Xue Dinglu immediately dodge. This child has some kind of problem; she seems to think that he is very small. Every time she sees him, she acts like a cat and tries to give him a rocket headbutt.

But in fact, she is already over 1.6 meters tall, and because her bone and muscle density is far beyond that of ordinary people, she weighs more than 200 kilograms, after all, she also has half of the dragon bloodline.

Every time that weight and superhuman strength pounced on Xue Dinglu, it felt like he was being run over by a truck.

“I saw your new video yesterday, so I’ll show it to the kids this morning,” Auntie said from the side. “Are we going to the farm today? Let them see the story behind it.”

"Oh……"

Xue Daolu didn't know if they understood it or not, but he knew that Xiaolongniang definitely didn't understand it, since what she cared about most right now was whether those weird shapes that turned into bread and cream on TV tasted good.

When Xue Dinglu came down, she was watching the bread and cream monstrosities on TV while eating sandwich cookies to satisfy her cravings. If she hadn't known it was a video, she probably would have picked up the TV and started chewing on it.

As for the Silver Kingdom, Xue Dinglu shrugged. He had already made arrangements yesterday, so he said, "Let's go there soon. After all, we're shareholders of that farm, so let's freeload."

After saying that, Xue's Law opened a portal.

Everyone went inside. The other end of the portal looked like a private backyard of a guesthouse, where people were working busily.

The knight commander kept carrying all sorts of ingredients back and forth, while the two female knights changed into standard Western fantasy maid outfits. These weren't the kind of clothes that look more like erotic clothing in modern anime, but rather like the traditional maid outfits of noble families after the Renaissance. They then began cleaning the houses that were grown from pea trees.

In fact, as soon as they entered the guesthouse, which was filled with a fantasy and fairy tale style, the children were immediately captivated.

The small wooden house was built by hollowing out the trunk of a pea tree. Inside, all the chairs and beds seemed to have grown directly from the tree. Morning glory vines climbed the wooden fence outside, and morning dew condensed into crystals.

As you leave this place, the cobblestone path leads to a mushroom-shaped hut, which looks like a witch's dwelling. Unfortunately, it's now also used as a guesthouse. Scattered on the ground are pine cones that squirrels cracked open last night, and countless little squirrels on the roof aren't afraid of people. They just munch on dried fruit and look at Xue Dinglu and his companions with curious eyes.

Not far away are farmlands and barns, with cute, cartoon-style scarecrows standing in the fields, their unique melodies from the Titan civilization playing when the wind blows.

Beside the farmland, there were also curious deer, wild hedgehogs, and pangolins. These little animals seemed to be dancing to the rhythm of the scarecrow in the wind, not afraid of strangers at all, probably because they had been soothed by old Watson.

These scenes were truly like something out of a fairy tale, leaving the children completely bewildered. Little Dragon Girl, for instance, was now clapping her hands with shining eyes, clearly adoring the place.

For other children, this place must be like a fairyland.

When Xue left the backyard and walked along the cobblestone path to the gate, the place was filled with a modern atmosphere. A parking lot was set up at the entrance, and now a stage was placed at the entrance of the guesthouse.

In addition, there are many toys for children, such as slides and rocking horses, but these all look like they grew directly from plants, without any trace of technological processing.

Clearly, Xue Dinglu was amazed when he arrived. The farm had even recreated the fairytale style of the original Silver Kingdom to a great extent, which had exceeded Xue Dinglu's original expectations.

When he came here a month ago, the area had just been developed. The Silver Princess still needed to wash weeds in the pool, and the Knight Commander needed to drive a tractor around to transport goods to earn money to supplement the family income.

But in less than a month, the place was completely transformed into the fairytale-like wonderland it is today.

The old man, gazing at the scenery, couldn't help but smile. He slowly said to Xue Dinglu, "This place seems to share the same style as your academy. If your magic academy were located nearby, the style would be very consistent..."

Xue was taken aback.

He then remembered that the academy was actually designed by old Green, and according to the information he had obtained, the prototype of the Silver Princess was actually old Green's daughter, but only a prototype.

The current Silver Princess has nothing to do with Old Grimm anymore; at most, one could say that the King of the Silver Kingdom is someone who looks like Old Grimm.

After all, the entire fairy tale world was just a world imagined by old Grimm.

He placed the Titan civilization into that carefree world, and then, all alone inside the Evil Eye, used his own skin to record civilization and time.

"Yes, if I plan to open a magic academy in the future, I'll put one of the entrances nearby," Xue Dinglu thought.

The little girls couldn't wait to start playing under their aunt's guidance. Xue Dinglu let them play without worry, while checking the prices.

The Pea Hut costs 400 per night, and the Mushroom Hut costs 500 per night. Other entertainment activities in the huts are free, but you have to pay for meals.

Xue Dinglu glanced at the menu.

Apple pie, fairy honey bread, mushroom house pie, moonlight strawberry pudding, pumpkin candy, and golden spindle tower cake...

Actually, none of these foods seem to be foods that Easterners would be used to eating. They are probably local specialties of their Silver Kingdom and other recipes from the Titan civilization, just made with Earth's ingredients.

However, this uniqueness is already an advantage, and the price of the guesthouse is not too expensive. After all, this place is different from other guesthouses, and there are no mosquitoes or flies in any of the rooms.

Frogs wearing garlands and crowns diligently ate flies and mosquitoes by the pond, occasionally croaking in unison. The sound wasn't noisy; rather, it sounded like singing.

There were also trees, which were probably newly planted by old Watson, covering the entire hilltop and forming the simplest magical barrier.

If Xue Dinglu were to spend a few hundred yuan to experience the authentic fairytale atmosphere here, he would be quite happy to do so.

However, perhaps because it was still early, Xue Dinglu did not see any other customers. The Silver Princess, who had originally thought that the store would be packed with customers after it opened and that she could make a fortune while lying down, was now listlessly lying on the cashier's counter.

Xue Dinglu stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong? Isn't today the opening day? Why do you look so listless?"

"Nobody's here... I should have spent a few million more on advertising... But actually I spent nearly a million, and it hasn't made a splash at all..." Princess Silver sighed as she looked at the empty parking lot.

Xue clicked his tongue.

There are so many pitfalls in advertising, especially with physical guesthouses like this. You can throw a million dollars into it and not even hear a sound. Also, this hill is actually in a relatively remote suburb of Jiangcheng. It was originally a tea plantation, but it was abandoned and then contracted out to the people of Baiyin Kingdom.

Naturally, there are very few people here to begin with, so they can basically only attract people by their own quality.

Xue Dinglu was also a little puzzled. Logically speaking, his video should have gone viral and attracted some traffic, but now there wasn't a single visitor, which was really hard to believe.

Is it really that bad that my TT account has such poor advertising appeal?

Xue Daolu began to doubt whether he had actually opened his TT account. The edited version of "The Bizarre Adventure of Sildenafil" had around 5000 million views. Although it couldn't match the popularity of "Tian Ting Ji," it was still considered a viral hit, so it shouldn't be so quiet...

Perhaps Xue Dinglu doesn't really understand the business of homestays. This thing should be based on word of mouth. Once the reputation is good, the number of visitors will naturally increase.

As for the environment here, he couldn't find anything to complain about. After all, the people who arranged this place were all pure Silver Nation people, and the trees and houses here were all grown by the old mage Watson using the seeds of the Titan civilization. This was the most authentic fairy tale flavor that could be achieved.

“Didn’t you have two female knights who sold pancakes via live stream before? Actually, we could have them do live streams to sell products, or even live stream them cleaning. I think two female knights dressed as maids could probably gain some popularity.” Xue Dinglu came up with a bad idea.

Princess Silver was taken aback for a moment, then immediately said, "Great idea!"

Then he immediately ran over to have Fiona and Fione, the two female knight sisters, start a live stream. Naturally, he was excitedly sitting at the cashier's counter, waiting for customers to arrive so he could collect some money.
