“Alchemy has the potential to create miracles. It’s not just used in military affairs. Altering the natural environment and making it suitable has a lot of uses,” said Su Wan.
Xu Yuan nodded in agreement. “Nowadays, very few people pay attention to this aspect of alchemy. When alchemy was first born, it was used to transform the environment and increase production.”
“Both of you arc very wise,” said Owen,
Owen had a feeling that if he kept working in the field of alchemy, he could achieve many great things.
Su Wan and Xu Yuan were also looking forward to it. Perhaps some other quick-witted Lords were already trying it.
However, not everyone had an underground area that they could use as a test field. They didn’t even have gifted dwarves who had knowledge of all kinds of alchemical technology.
Su Wan was aware that if she activated the Dwarf God’s statue, she could trigger ancient knowledge of the dwarves that could be even more helpful to build new things.
Dark Region City was the source of weapons, Furnace City would soon become a place for alchemy research.
They all wanted to compote for Xu Yuan’s approval. No one dared to go against him,
Furnace City was on the right track, Su Wan’s territory was gradually leaving its mark here, and the gray dwarves were willing to follow Xu Yuan.
As long as Xu Yuan was around, the dwarves would obey and follow him.
After taking care of the matters in the underground world, Su Wan and Xu Yuan returned to the surface.
Felix was in charge of Dark Region City and Owen was in charge of Furnace City. Both these people were highly qualified to carry out orders and watch the people under them.
All the gray dwarves followed Su Wan and Xu Yuan. There wore a total of thirty dwarves in total.
Xu Yuan wanted the dwarves to stay in Furnace City and help the others make advancements in the alchemical field. However, he first needed to activate their bloodline.
The production for the normal resources was high, but not so much for the rare resources. Although there were various small mines spawning around the territory, they didn’t really provide many resources.
Su Wan listened as her subordinate reported on the mines and the remaining resources. She didn’t know how she could earn a million resources instantly.
’It’s alright. It’s alright. I can just try and accumulate as many as I can,’ thought Su Wan as she tried to console herself.
After the bloodline was activated, they wrould keep the useful dwarves in the territory and send the rest back to Furnace City.
“Has Eliza sent any news?” asked Xu Yuan.
“Not yet. Maybe she hasn’t reached the Charm Devil Tribe encampment yet.11 Timo shook his head.
Timo took out an opened letter from his pocket and handed it to Su Wan.
As the administrative officer of the territory in Su Wan’s absence, the letter was addressed to him. So, it was okay for him to open it.
Su Wan waved her hand. “Just tell me what it says.”
“Mostly ideas on how to develop the Lavender Business Guild further. I already sent a reply to Mestre. There is one matter that needs your approval, though,” said Timo.
“What new ideas does Mestre have?” asked Su Wan.
“Mestre suggests that we use the territory’s feature of finding our way through the swamp to speed up the trade,” said Timo.
Su Wan was somewhat puzzled.
“Not only ordinary trade… Mestre suggests shifting the Territory Core to the center of the swamp, allowing the good to circulate from both within and outside the territory,” said Timo.
Her suggestions made sense to Su Wan. It was a great idea!
The Overlord Plane was a maze. Many creatures, heroes, and Lords got lost in it. However, Su Wan’s territory had a special ability with which her troops and her creatures could always find their way back home.
Xu Yuan frowned. Furnace City had developed the mechanical boats for exactly the same purpose. ’Did Mestre already know about it?1
Sam left the blacksmith shop. His hair was messy, and his clothes were unkempt. People frowned whenever he passed by.
He looked so haggard that, sometimes, people mistook him for a beggar. It didn’t help that he had only one arm to add to the look.
However, Sam didn’t care. He puffed out his chest proudly and walked through the streets with glittering eyes.
The residents respected him and were equally envious of him. That was because the uniform he wore was specially designed to signal to others that he was the lead blacksmith in the territory.
Only the staff of the smithy were qualified to wear that uniform, and the smithy was one of the most important contributors to the territory.
The blacksmith uniforms were divided into three types: Apprentice, Forger, and Master Blacksmith.
Sam was the only one who wore the uniform designed for the Master Blacksmith. It displayed his title and status in the territory.
Sam walked briskly down the street as he hummed a soft tune. He was hurrying home today because he knew someone was waiting for him.
Today was a special day. It was Nana’s birthday!
Ever since he met Nana, his life had turned brighter. The days now filled him with hope and a will to live.
On the surface, it seemed as though he was the one taking care of Nana, but only he knew how much he relied on her. Without her, he was nothing.
A few months ago, he had found a blind girl in the swamp. He had helped her through the swamp. They trudged through the land for days before coming upon the territory.
If he hadn’t continued on, he would’ve never found this territory. This territory had given him and Nana a home, and it had also offered him a livelihood,
He would never forget what this territory had given him. His soul belonged to Nana, and his life belonged to the territory..
