Overlord, I don't want to be the Holy Queen's Great Sword

"Well..."

Karl smiled and turned to look at Gondo, who was banging things around with excitement on his face.

"Of course, I'll pick out the things that no one needs from here."

For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Gondo.

Gondo, who was originally concentrating on the appraisal, finally came back to his senses and said.

"What are you talking about? How could there be something in here that we don't need?"

"This is a treasure that the dwarves have kept for hundreds of years!"

Hearing this, Karl smiled and shook his head.

“You never know!”

After saying that, Kalko stood up and asked Kuirat to take the magic props from Gondo. He then performed [Prop Identification] to check the effects of many magic props.

For a moment, Gondo, whose magic props were taken away, was as unhappy as if his money had been taken away. However, after seeing the ore nearby, his sadness turned into joy.

At least these things would not be lost, so a sound of metal collision was heard in the house.

Karko and Kuirat were identifying magic items, while Gondo was sorting out the effects of ores and metal ingots.

After a while, all the things taken from the dwarf treasure house were sorted out.

Needless to say, Karl brought back quite a few magic props this time, but the most valuable ones are the following.

The divine sword engraved with four runes not only has a large number of effects, but can also adaptively adjust its shape according to the user's situation.

A pair of dragon leather boots engraved with three runes have three permanent effects: energy, acceleration, and agility. Those who wear these boots will never feel tired when running.

A breastplate made of fine steel, but it is not a Rune breastplate, but a demonized breastplate. It is as powerful as the divine sword and has adaptive control.

A two-handed greatsword, a necklace, bracelets, and so on.

Gondo, through a series of tests and even going back to find his grandfather's notes, finally learned the names of many minerals.

Chapter 43: Dividing the spoils and giving warnings.

"This seems to be a mineral called titanium."

Old Hank weighed the silver-gray ore in his hand and said uncertainly.

Spa on the side said affirmatively while comparing the books left by Gondo's father and grandfather.

"Yes, it is indeed a mineral called titanium, Master."

Spa pointed to a silver-gray metal ingot in the distance that was emitting some bits of light and continued.

"According to the records in the book, only this kind of ore, after being smelted into metal ingots, is silver-gray in color with some light spots on the surface."

"The most important thing is that it is the only one that has excellent magic affinity."

After saying that, Spa looked at Gondo seriously.

"Master, it should be correct."

Just now, when Gondo went back to get the information about his father and grandfather, he brought Spa who was still playing in the mud in Rune's studio with him.

They brought back so many Rune items and mysterious minerals this time, which was a good time to broaden their horizons. Some of the Rune items might have to be given away later, so Gondo would not let Si miss this opportunity.

"Titanium ore?"

Carl couldn't help but frown when he heard what the two said.

There's no other reason, the name is just too familiar to it.

This thing was used a lot in aerospace in the past life.

"What are the properties of this metal?"

"Characteristics...how should I put it?"

Gondo said carefully: "It is a metal that is rarer than fine steel, and it is better than fine steel overall."

"Overall?"

Karl couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, overall."

As he spoke, Gondo picked up a titanium ingot and gestured, "The hardness of titanium is at the same level as that of fine steel, but its flexibility and other aspects are better than fine steel. It is a very rare all-round metal."

"For example, Your Highness Karko, haven't you always wanted to use a spear as your spellcasting weapon?"

"Although fine steel also has a certain magical power, when it comes to staffs, our recommendation is still mithril."

"Because Mithril possesses magical power and affinity with magic that far exceeds that of fine steel."

"More importantly, it is light enough and has better ductility."

"Of course, titanium is definitely heavier than mithril, but it has higher magical power and ductility than mithril, and it also has the hardness of fine steel."

“That’s why it’s a very versatile metal.”

“It has a downside, though.”

Gondo opened his mouth, but for a moment he seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"This titanium ore is very difficult to smelt. According to what my grandfather said, the Dwarven Nation originally used this metal as one of the forging materials for the national treasure, but because the ore was scarce and extremely difficult to smelt, it was later discarded from the list of options."

"Discarded from the selection pool?"

Karko raised her eyebrows slightly.

This sentence contains too much information.

"That means the Dwarven Kingdom found many kinds of metals that are not weaker than titanium?"

"That's right, Your Highness. Although those metals are not as outstanding as titanium overall, there are always some metals that are superior to them in some aspects, and the output in the mines is far greater than that of titanium."

"Your Highness, you have to know that it is impossible to make magic props successfully in one go."

Karl nodded thoughtfully.

According to this, the Dwarf Kingdom back then was indeed rich in resources!

Even a metal like titanium, which has far superior performance to stainless steel, is only one of many options.

However, according to the plot in the novel, when Bone King found the Dwarf Kingdom, he took out a piece of metal material of more than level 40 and hoped that the Dwarf Kingdom would help him make it into a piece of equipment.

But when the forger in the Dwarf Council took on the task, he found that no matter how hard he tried, he could not melt the metal ingot, so he left with the metal ingot for unknown reasons.

There is no way to smelt metal materials that are only above level 21. In other words, most of the metal materials that the dwarves come into contact with are between [Intermediate (30-31)] and [Advanced (40-)].

Even most of the materials for [Advanced (31-40)] are only accessible to dwarves at their peak.

Unless the dwarves perform exceptionally well, it is difficult to create magic items of the highest level (41-50). As for the heritage level (51-60), they are even national treasures.

No wonder the Bone King ran to the Dwarf King's treasury and rummaged around for a long time, but the sword with the highest amount of information he found was only level 50 or so.

I'm afraid that sword alone is already an alternative national treasure for the Dwarf Kingdom.

The giant hammer that shook the earth was probably of the [Legacy Level (51-60)] level, and of course it was possible that it was a [Holy Relic (61-70)] level creation.

If we have to compare, the magic armor that Bone King wore when he was aliased as Feifei is the [Holy Relic (61-70)]

I feel desperate just thinking about it!

Karl couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, but this also gave her a new idea. Maybe after she improved her magic level, she could create some equipment entirely by magic.

Or lower the level a bit, use magic to create some magic metal, and then process it to create magic props?

In this case, it would be much easier than creating magic props!

If that doesn't work, Karl can also modify it based on the existing metals.

After all, she was actually quite curious about one thing: what kind of magical power was hidden in the stomachs of the Quagoa cubs that allowed them to devour ores of various levels?

Can we use this characteristic to create a magic that can fuse metals?

Or maybe enchant the dwarven's extremely special hot ore to create a more powerful furnace capable of smelting all kinds of metals?

For a moment, Karl's mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts.

After all, as long as you are willing to think, there are always more solutions than problems!

Then Karko turned his attention to another pale blue mineral.

"What's the name of that ore?"

"Oh, that kind of ore is a companion ore of titanium, called cobalt, which is also a very comprehensive metal."

"Cobalt is stronger than Mithril and softer than Orichalcum, and its ductility and magic content are between the two."

"It is a kind of ore that is not as good as the best, but better than the worst."

"Dwarven craftsmen initially used cobalt as a testbed for titanium, and forged a number of rune weapons at the time."

Gondo said this excitedly, and his eyes almost asked Karko to give him these metals to practice with.

In Karl's bag that can hold 30 kilograms, 6 kilograms are titanium, the remaining 15 kilograms are this metal, and the remaining 9 kilograms are fine steel.

However, Karko did not respond to Gondo, mainly because the names of the two metals reminded her of a game.

Titanium, cobalt, is there a palladium behind them?

But soon, Karko shook his head and put the idea behind him.

"Let's talk about the metal later. First, divide up all the magic items. Then have Uncle Hank take some of the ones that don't need to be taken away and give them to the Dwarf Council as evidence to warn them."

Having said that, Karko took the lead and started to select from a variety of magic props.

For a moment, everyone looked at each other and responded.

You can choose the props you may need from it.

In addition to selecting props suitable for magic casters, Karko also picked up a few pieces of equipment for Kulev.

Among them are the divine sword engraved with four runes and the flying dragon leather boots.

Kulev must really need this.

Chapter 44: Wild Idea.

After a while, in a magnificent ceremony hall, a long square table was located in the center, and eight people sat down around the table in turn.

Since the last dwarf king of the dwarf kingdom chose to leave two hundred years ago, the dwarf kingdom has elected eight people to form a parliament to govern on its behalf.

They are the commander-in-chief in charge of military affairs, the head of the Earth Temple in charge of magic casters, the head of the Blacksmith Workshop in charge of production and smelting, the head of the Food Industry in charge of grain production, the head of the Winery in charge of wine production management, the head of the Cave Mine in charge of all mining and food extraction, the chairman of the Merchant Council in charge of merchants, trade and diplomacy, and the director-general who manages affairs not managed by other ministers.

These eight people form the apex of the current power structure of the Dwarf Kingdom.

At this time, after all these people gathered around the square table, they all stared at the several magic props in the middle of the table without saying a word.

Among these magic items are silver-shining wristbands with runes on their surfaces, as well as pitch-black daggers that seem to be able to swallow up all the light around them.

There is even a set of chains that glow in gradient colors when the sun shines on them.

Just from the appearance of the outside, you can tell that it is not an ordinary thing. Logically, everyone present should be happy to see this, instead of looking so gloomy.

But that's the reality.

After a long while, the forge master stroked his flaming brown beard, looked around at his colleagues, and finally decided to start the conversation himself.

"Everyone, after being identified by our forging workshop, these magic props are indeed from the Western city of Feaotaihuazi more than a hundred years ago. They are undoubtedly the treasures of the Western city. Their names can be found on the list of the former treasure house."

"Blessed bracers, shadow dagger, and chains of magical binding."

"Even if these things were placed in those treasure houses, they would at least be treasures of medium to high quality. Aren't you going to say anything?"

"say what?"

The aged-looking Director General sighed helplessly: "Even if the information that His Highness said is true, what can we do to that Frost Dragon?"

"More than a hundred years ago, the battle between the other party and another frost dragon destroyed that city. Now that the other frost dragon has occupied the capital, it is not incomprehensible that the other party has occupied the western city."

"Under these circumstances, can we drive away the frost dragon and take back Feao Taihuaz's treasure?"
