Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem

Chapter 410 - 199: Glory Praise, Blacksmith Upgrade! _3

“Ice Nest Monster Sampling, please take a look.”

The two Centaurs finished speaking and immediately set the bags from their backs onto the ground.

Cao Xing instantly saw a large pile of Ice Dragon Marks and other materials on top.

[Acquired: Ice Dragon Mark*8921]

[Acquired: Ice Glacier Fragment*4723]

[Acquired: Ice Dragon Horn (Small)*4]

[Acquired: Ice Dragon Horn (Medium)*1]

…

“Well done, Kanter, Kandar.”

A smile appeared on Cao Xing’s lips.

Today’s harvest was quite good.

His reserve of Ice Dragon Marks had once again surpassed 70,000.

Cao Xing pondered, “If I make another trade tomorrow, my Ice Dragon Marks might break through 300,000, and then I can exchange for the remaining two Golden Treasure Boxes!”

“Next, I need to save up another 300,000 Ice Dragon Marks for Muxue to open three Golden Treasure Boxes, haha!”

Cao Xing thought joyfully.

Then he sent the two Centaurs back on patrol.

At this moment, a system prompt appeared.

[Your Territory Member: Harold Iceberg, with dedicated focus on forging, has finally comprehended more advanced forging skills through relentless effort and has acquired a new skill: Advanced Forging Mastery]

…

At this moment, Cao Xing’s eyes showed a look of surprise!

“No way, Harold became an advanced Forging Master so quickly?”

“It’s been less than a week since he joined my territory; this time I’ve really struck gold!”

Cao Xing was extremely excited, and he couldn’t wait to rush into the [Blacksmith Shop].

Meanwhile.

Harold seemed to foresee Cao Xing’s arrival, and he stood by the forge with a joyful smile, silently waiting.

“Lord, you’re here.”

Cao Xing smiled and said, “Yes.”

“Congratulations, Harold.”

“You have astonishing forging talent.”

Harold quickly shook his head and humbly said, “Harold is simple-minded. It’s thanks to the Lord’s help that I was able to comprehend new forging skills so quickly.”

Cao Xing laughed heartily and patted his shoulder.

Then he began to check Harold’s attributes.

[Seeker: Harold Iceberg]

[Race: Dwarf Clan]

[Level: 15 (Second Order Ordinary Creature)]

[Life Value: 4140/4140]

[Attack Power: 252~277]

[Skills: Frost Hammer, Ice Mountain Heavy Strike

Advanced Forging Mastery (Possesses rich forging experience, capable of crafting Rare Quality equipment, and speeds up forging speed by 30% and success rate by 10%)]

[Talent: Craftsman (Increases 10% success rate when forging equipment)]

…

“Great, great, great! It even adds another 10% to forging speed and 10% to forging success rate!”

Cao Xing couldn’t help but exclaim.

Because with this, Harold could also guarantee a higher success rate when crafting Purple Equipment.

And Cao Xing also remembered Assam’s Golden weapon, [King’s Battle Blade], which had a note.

It allowed an advanced Forging Master to remove the [Flash Gold Gem] and [Earth Gem] from it and embed them into new weapons.

And although the specific quality of these two gems was unknown, their attributes were certainly not weak.

“Very well, Assam is already at Level 25, and he’ll soon reach Level 30.”

“Then he can equip the broken Legendary Weapon, Magdala, and the King’s Battle Blade will be retired.”

“Those two gemstones can then be retrieved by Harold for reuse!”

Cao Xing thought with satisfaction.

At this moment, Harold continued to report, “Lord, these past two days I’ve been mostly forging those large scythes.”

“The eight sets of materials you gave me resulted in five successful sets, the remaining three failed.”

“I’m very sorry!”

He said apologetically.

After all, three failures meant the loss of three sets of Rare Quality materials.

These also included large amounts of Fine Iron and small amounts of Mithril.

The losses were still relatively significant.

If it were an ordinary Blacksmith, just these three sets of materials would have bankrupted them.

Fortunately, Cao Xing was wealthy and could allow Harold to squander them.

Cao Xing did not mind, “Don’t worry about it, Harold.”

“Spending a little on materials to help you rapidly advance to a higher level is still worth it.”

“Besides, didn’t you successfully make five sets?”

Receiving Cao Xing’s encouragement, a gentle smile appeared on Harold’s face.

He then gratefully said, “Thank you for your support, Lord.”

“Shall I give you these five scythes first?”

“I personally am quite satisfied with these scythes.”

Upon hearing this, Cao Xing also became interested.

Then he followed Harold to the Storage Box.

As the Storage Box opened, Cao Xing saw inside five completely black scythes emitting faint black mist!

Including the handle and the large hook claw at the front, the length already exceeded one meter seventy.

Especially the sharp hook claws at the tip, subtly shimmering with a cold gleam, giving them a very sinister appearance.

Cao Xing directly collected these five scythes.

[Acquired: Soul-Devouring Monster Scythe (Purple)*5]

He glanced at the attributes.

[Soul-Devouring Scythe (Purple)]

[Quality: Rare]

[Level: Above Level 30]

[Attack Power: 542~594]

[Attached Effect①: Power +80, Agility +50]

[Attached Effect②: Cutting Blade (Increases Attack Power by 20% and adds a disabling effect when attacking)]

[Attached Effect③: Soul Suppression (Inflicts an extra 50% damage when attacking Spiritual Body type enemies)]

(Equipment Introduction: Scythe made from the large hook claw of a Soul-Devouring Monster, with a subtle addition of Mithril, has a pronounced suppressive effect against Spiritual Body type enemies.)

…

After reviewing the scythe’s attributes, Cao Xing’s face brimmed with joy.

“Not bad, not bad!”

“No wonder Harold is also pleased with these scythes.”

The attributes of the [Soul-Devouring Scythe] were strong enough, and the level was sufficiently high.

The most crucial point was that this scythe had a trait capable of suppressing Spiritual Body type enemies!
