Chapter 536 Stirring In The Underground Area
536 Stirring In The Underground Area Su Wan felt extremely pleased.
If the production machinery could be fleshed out, then could the offensive weapons also be fleshed out?
Flesh alchemy cannons that could aim and fire, flesh catapults that could load rocks, and so on.
Amolin only focused on creating special flesh and blood machinery, but Su Wan saw a complete industry within it. This would undoubtedly have a profound impact on the future development of the territory!
"My Lord, I will never let you and His Majesty down!" Amolin said firmly.
"Furnace City will definitely complete the mission!" Owen, who was beside her, jumped up in excitement.
"Flesh and blood machinery will be applied to production as soon as possible!" Su Wan nodded in satisfaction.
This matter was placed at the top of the priority list and would be dealt with immediately.
If any resources were needed, they could apply for them directly, and Timo would prioritize them.
Su Wan didn't stop there. She continued to discuss the details with the two of them.
She generously shared all her ideas about the flesh and blood machinery technology with them.
Amolin's eyes were filled with excitement and admiration, while Owen was astonished.
If they could realize these ideas into reality, the territory would amass tremendous power in a very short time. This mode of production would have an overwhelming impact on manual labor.
The conversation continued until late at night before Su Wan finally concluded the meeting.
With their goals set, the two of them were full of spirit and couldn't wait to implement the grand blueprint they had discussed.
Just as Amolin was about to leave, Su Wan suddenly remembered that she hadn't asked about her new profession: the Forbidden Master.
The Forbidden Master possessed the ability to research forbidden arts that ordinary people couldn't comprehend. The system's information about it was brief, but it seemed extraordinary.
"The Forbidden Master is a legacy of the Thorin family," Amolin said with emotion when Su Wan asked her.
"It was said that the Thorin family had given birth to extremely powerful ancestors in ancient times, who researched things even feared by gods. Later, these ancestors were attacked by several gods, and they tragically fell, but they had foreseen it and passed down part of their knowledge through the power of their bloodline. Since then, as long as the bloodline is awakened, one could gain knowledge about forbidden arts and become a Forbidden Master."
"However, all of this came at a price. If the bloodline couldn't be awakened, the person would die. Therefore, my father was worried about me joining the territory. For those who couldn't activate their bloodline, only by becoming a Special Blacksmith could they delay the curse, and only as a Master Blacksmith could they resist it."
"Don't worry, I'll have someone bring your father to Furnace City immediately. With the support of the territory, breaking through to become a Master Blacksmith won't be difficult," Su Wan said. She had truly struck gold.
Achievements should always be rewarded. Amolin's father had joined the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce after being separated from his daughter. He had visited Su Wan's territory once before.
However, he had been too arrogant. So, he had been tied and whipped for a few days.
When Amolin heard Su Wan say that, she was touched.
"I can see your efforts, so just focus on your work, and leave the rest to me." Su Wan smiled and reached out to tuck her hair behind her ear.
Amolin nodded earnestly.
This feeling of having someone to rely on was extraordinary.
After the two left, Su Wan stretched lazily. The day had been tiring.
Su Wan and Xu Yuan finished washing up and were about to go to bed when someone urgently knocked on the door.
"Come in." Su Wan frowned.
"Lord Su Wan, His Majesty Xu Yuan, there's news from the surface that a massive disturbance has appeared in the depths of darkness." The door pushed open, and the dwarf hero entered hurriedly. He was flustered.
"Lord Timo said it's the underground area you previously paid attention to. The beings confined there are breaking free from their restraints, causing a great disturbance."
Xu Yuan frowned.
About half a year ago, the army, while hunting outside, encountered refugees in the darkness. They were the group of people led by the one-armed blacksmith, Sam.
Su Wan led the troops to rescue the refugees who were trapped in a broken temple.
They managed to evacuate the refugees, but accidentally triggered a mechanism along the way. The temple had collapsed as a result.
Terrifying dark tendrils emerged from the collapsed ground and dragged the dragon hero, who was the top combat power in the territory at the time.
The perpetrator was the Lord of Darkness, who was confined in the underground area. He was at least at the Transcendent level.
Interestingly, as long as they captured the underground area, the heroes imprisoned there could be enslaved.
However, at that time, the territory was still fragile, and reaching the Transcendent level was an unreachable dream.
Su Wan could only put all of that out of her mind.
In the past few months, although the territory's strength had improved, she was also distracted by numerous trivial matters and had no time to focus on the situation in the underground area.
Unexpectedly, before she even started, the Lord of Darkness imprisoned underground had already gone into a frenzy.
"We'll go back immediately," Xu Yuan said without hesitation. The matter in Furnace City had already been seen to. There was nothing significant to be done.
They were more concerned about the Lord of Darkness.
Revenge required personal involvement; the scene of leading the army and being chased around was still vivid in his memory.
When Su Wan left Furnace City, she also brought along two dark elves. They played crucial roles in the female group of the dressing dance troupe, and this plan couldn't be delayed.
When Su Wan came out of the two-way portal from the underground world, the first ray of light was just rising in the sky.
The two dark elves looked in awe at the morning sky.
As underground beings, they experienced this for the first time in their lives.
At first, they felt uneasy and uncomfortable, but after looking around, joy replaced those feelings.
The surface world was completely different from the underground!
Su Wan didn't pay too much attention to the two dark elves. She returned to her territory and had her maidservant arrange their work.
Their true value would only be realized after the upgrade of the Magic Music Box.
Currently, they were merely ordinary elves with good voices. They weren't celebrities yet. They were far inferior in terms of beauty to Nami.
"My Lord, the dungeon you had me watch had a terrifying disturbance a few hours ago. A blood moon rose inside." Timo had been waiting for her. He saluted when she approached.
A blood-red light enveloped the surrounding area. When the army approached, they felt a soul-piercing pressure that prevented them from advancing. Even the vigilant troops were forced to retreat.
'A blood-red light?'
Su Wan and Xu Yuan thought of the return of the Great Old Ones. There was clearly some connection between them and this.
"Is there any other information?"
"No. As soon as the scouts discovered this, they immediately reported it to you."
