Chapter 26 Weapon Refining
After returning home, Wang Lang immediately got busy.
In addition to the normal barbecue, he also stewed a pot of mushroom soup in a huge stone basin.
The sacred beast, the ape, had consumed a lot of energy today. It was so hungry that it was completely exhausted.
It lay limply beside him, drooling and staring at the barbecue that was sizzling with oil.
Xiaohua and Xiaoduzi were not idle either.
They had traveled a long distance today and hadn't eaten well along the way.
At this time, Xiaohua was leisurely nibbling on the grass under the light of the fire. The calf was still the same as before, crawling under Xiaohua's crotch and drinking milk with a grunt.
During the barbecue, Wang Lang summoned the bronze Shennong Ding from his mind.
The bronze Shennong Ding started to grow larger as soon as it landed on the ground. After a flash of light, it turned into a huge four-legged bronze tripod about two meters high.
Although this bronze Shennong Ding has four legs, it is not a square tripod but a round tripod.
It has a round, bulging belly with a diameter of at least one meter and three meters.
All the spoils obtained today were decomposed by Wang Lang using the Bronze Shennong Cauldron.
There were a lot of exotic beast skins, bones, horns, and teeth, but they all came from ordinary exotic beasts, so they were all white quality.
The green-quality exotic animal materials only include two one-meter-square wild animal skins obtained by decomposing a hundred-year-old wild antelope, and two bone sheepskins, also one-meter-square.
It's a pity that there are only four green-quality exotic beast materials. If there were six more, they could be used to refine a green-quality armor equipment.
However, we still got a lot of green quality ore today.
Thirty pieces of iron ore, ten pieces of silver ore, fifteen pieces of copper ore, and thirty pieces of cangyu ore.
If all the green quality ores are added together, there are 85 pieces. If 10 pieces can be used to refine a weapon, then these 85 pieces of ore can be used to refine about 8 weapons.
The reason why it is said that almost eight weapons can be refined is because there are also cases of failure in refining weapons, and it is not 100% successful.
There are nearly twenty kinds of mineral resources in the Shanhai Dahuang world that can be called mineral resources and can be used to refine weapons.
Among them, the white quality ones include exotic animal bones, fine stones, and clay.
Green qualities include iron, copper, silver, cangyu and yaoyu.
The blue qualities include red gold, platinum, gold, crystal, black jade, and meteorite iron.
Purple quality ones include jade, star stone,
The gold quality ones include Xuanyu, Fire Crystal, Ice Crystal,
There is only one kind of red quality, and that is Jinyu Jade.
Of course, these ores can not only be used to refine weapons, they can also be mixed with exotic animal skins to refine protective equipment.
After communicating with the space of Shennong Ding, he randomly picked up ten pieces of green quality ore and put them into the big belly of the bronze Shennong Ding.
After the ore was put in, the lid of the Bronze Shennong Ding closed automatically. Then several flames appeared around the Bronze Shennong Ding.
These flames were tightly attached to the bronze Shennong Ding, burning it.
To be honest, Wang Lang really couldn't wait to own a green-quality metal weapon.
That's why he communicated directly with the Bronze Shennong Cauldron to let it refine weapons in between grilling meat.
As soon as the bronze Shennong Ding appeared, the mythical beast abacus noticed it at the first moment.
Without any hesitation, it stood up and walked away from the bronze Shennong Ding.
Wang Lang naturally saw the actions of the mythical beast, the ape, but he didn't think much about it.
He didn't know that the bronze Shennong Ding had injured the right hand of the mythical beast, the ape, in order to protect him.
So at this time he certainly would not think that the mythical beast ape chose to get up and move away from the bronze Shennong Ding because it was afraid of it.
As the flames burned, most of the bronze Shennong Ding turned red.
Feeling the waves of heat, Wang Lang was quite puzzled.
A few days ago, he had used the bronze Shennong Ding to refine weapons and protective equipment.
That’s how those bone weapons and the linen clothes Wang Lang is wearing now came from.
Although flames appeared around the Bronze Shennong Ding when refining bone weapons, the temperature was not high at that time and the Bronze Shennong Ding did not change color.
"My goodness, I can feel the heat even when I'm more than ten meters away. If I get closer, won't I be roasted by this bronze Shennong Ding?"
"The temperature is so high now, probably to better melt the metal ore inside."
After making sure there was no problem with the Bronze Shennong Cauldron, Wang Lang turned his head and concentrated on grilling the meat.
The Bronze Shennong Ding can refine weapons and armor by itself. Except for the need to manually add raw materials, the rest can be said to be fully automated.
In comparison, you should concentrate more on grilling at this time.
After adding flame phosphorus to the wood pile, the flame temperature was very high. If you were not careful, it would be easy to burn the beast meat.
A few days ago, it was fine. The divine beast accepted everything. As long as it was grilled meat, no matter whether it was half-cooked or burnt, it would eat it with relish.
But in the next few days, it couldn't stand it anymore, because its taste had become more and more picky. It could accept half-cooked food, but it hated burnt food.
Therefore, if you are not careful and burn the exotic beast meat at this time, it would be a real waste.
Wang Lang began to grill the meat attentively, stirring the mushroom soup in the stone basin from time to time.
At this time, Wang Lang did not notice that the mythical beast, the ape, was always staring at the bronze Shennong Ding, and its two big eyes, as big as billiard balls, were full of fear.
After about ten minutes, about 150 kilograms of exotic beast meat on three thin wooden sticks was almost roasted.
At this time, they are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and oozing with oil, constantly emitting the aroma of meat.
Wang Lang placed three wooden sticks on the stone table and used a bone spur knife to take all the barbecue off in a few seconds.
Looking up at the ape sitting obediently to the east of the fire, Wang Lang shouted, "What are you waiting for? Come and have a meal. After you're full, go to bed. Get up early tomorrow, because we have to go out to mine!"
After digging the first pile of iron ore this afternoon, the mythical beast abacus began to talk with gestures.
Watching its gestures, Wang Lang roughly understood what it meant.
The mythical beast abacus said that if you go straight west from home, there are mountains one after another.
The mountains and the areas surrounding them are all filled with piles of this kind of ore.
After understanding the meaning of the sacred beast, Wang Lang decided to give up his original plan. He would not cut down trees, build homes, or dig ponds at home tomorrow.
Head west tomorrow and dig up as much ore as possible.
Roar, roar, roar… Roar, roar, roar…
Hearing Wang Lang's call, the divine beast 異異 growled a few times, then raised its butt and walked in small steps, twisting and turning to the side of the stone table.
It sat beside the stone table, immediately grabbed the barbecue and started to eat it. However, while eating the barbecue, it would occasionally look up at the still red bronze Shennong Ding.
At this time, Wang Lang was busy putting new exotic beast meat on the thin wooden stick.
I just roasted more than 300 kilograms of exotic beast meat at one time. After roasting, there will probably be only more than 200 kilograms left.
These more than 200 kilograms of barbecued meat are probably not enough for the divine beast abacus to cook by itself, so it is better to roast some more at this time.
It doesn’t matter if you roast too much, the leftovers can be put into the space of Shennong Ding.
The space of Shennong Ding is extremely special. No matter whether it is raw or roasted exotic beast meat, it will not deteriorate if placed inside.
After skewering the exotic beast meat, Wang Lang held the wooden sticks and put them on the grill one by one.
He had just cut a piece of barbecue, and now he was eating while flipping the skewer on the wooden stick at hand.
At the same time, he would occasionally grab a clean cow horn and stir the mushrooms and mutton in the stone basin.
That’s right, what is stewed in this stone basin is not beef, but the meat of a hundred-year-old gazelle obtained from hunting it in the evening.
Although the stone basin is about the size of a bathtub, the amount of meat and mushrooms that can be stewed in it is limited.
If this bowl of soup was given to the mythical beast, it probably wouldn't even be enough to fill its teeth. So there was no other way, this extremely delicious mushroom soup could only be enjoyed by myself.
Since it is exclusive to him, Wang Lang will naturally use the best ingredients.
