but……
"We... have purple-grade meteoric iron ore, right? Can purple-grade meteoric iron ore be smelted using blue-grade fuel?"
"Well, it's possible, but..." Li Wenxi said a little embarrassedly, "The blue-grade coal I have isn't even enough to smelt a piece of purple-grade meteorite iron ore."
Then, Li Wenxi explained it to him briefly.
It turns out that it takes a full twelve hours to smelt a piece of purple-grade meteorite iron ore using blue-grade coal.
But Li Wenxi only had eight pieces of blue-grade coal.
A piece of blue-grade coal can only sustain smelting for one hour, and the total useful fuel she has can only sustain smelting for eight hours.
"Is blue-grade wood not acceptable?" Xu Xin felt a bit of a headache.
Is this the pain of having high-quality materials but not being able to use them?
"No, no. The requirements for wood are even higher, because wood itself is not considered a qualified smelting material. If the temperature is not high enough, even if I use my furnace, I must use wood of the same grade to barely work, and the time will be doubled."
For wood of the same grade, the time is doubled...
In other words, purple-grade meteorite iron ore requires purple-grade wood to be smelted, and it takes 24 hours to smelt a piece!
This is too outrageous!
This is something they really shouldn't be exposed to at this stage!
But...if it can really be smelted...
"...You should prioritize smelting the steel blocks. Put this thing aside for now." Xu Xin said with a headache.
The metal that makes up that underground prison and the metal in those metal rooms we encountered before should all be this meteorite iron, right?
This thing seems to be the key metal commonly used by the Blood Pattern Clan.
"Hmm... I'll try using purple-grade wood first. I still have some. Hey, Xu Xin, tell me, if we let your pangolin dig deep underground, will the coal mines there be of a higher grade?"
“…You can give it a try.”
Xu Xin has now walked to the edge of the mine and is looking into it.
The mine has been expanded to a large extent, but it is not very deep.
"Then I'll go over now!"
Li Wenxi is very interested in this new metal and plans to come over now.
"Don't you have to worry about your mining team anymore?"
"Over there, let them dig by themselves first. Let Yajun lead them. I'm more concerned about this new metal now."
When we returned to the tree house, Li Wenxi had already arrived.
She greeted Xu Xin and went straight to Xu Xin's mine with her beloved Pangolin Concubine.
Xu Xin thought about it for a moment.
He has the ability to discover alchemical materials, but there are indeed no such minerals around his and Li Wenxi's tree house.
But he remembered that Qi Xuefei had an alchemy mine, but he had been busy later and didn't lack any materials, so he forgot about it.
Perhaps, we can develop the mining area over there.
Sitting on the sofa, Coco, who he had left at home before, jumped onto his legs with a "嘤" sound, and the egg rolled to his feet.
Xu Xin casually checked the alliance channel.
Everyone was having a pleasant chat, and he also received private messages from other big bosses in District 1.
Xu Xin opened Shi Wanyun's private message again.
She still didn't reply.
The words "Help!" really made Xu Xin feel itchy.
What happened on her end?
He was still very happy to help Shi Wanyun. After all, as a lone wolf, it would be better to lure her over as soon as possible.
But she didn't say anything, and Xu Xin had no idea how to help her.
Sighing, Xu Xin was about to chat with other strong men in Area 1 when suddenly, a message popped up on the screen.
Here we come!
"Weapons, please!"
It's only a few words, very short.
Did she mean to let herself give her a weapon?
Xu Xin instantly imagined her current situation in her mind.
At this time, Shi Wanyun was hiding somewhere trembling, not daring to move, not even to make a sound, and even not daring to turn on her watch, because the light cast by the projection might allow the surrounding enemies to discover her.
And she could only hide there, looking for an opportunity. Once the enemies around her stopped paying attention to her, she would immediately open her watch and send a message to Xu Xin.
but……
She is definitely not in her tree house now, right?
Then she asked me to trade weapons to her, could I accept it?
Or is it that her watch is the same as mine, a purple-level watch that can be traded?
Xu Xin suddenly remembered that he had seen people from District 1 discussing Shi Wanyun on the World Channel, saying that she had also been ranked first in the district.
The purple-level watch was the reward for winning the first place in the exploration activity.
That should be right, her watch is the same as mine, both are purple-level watches!
But...weapons are something you can't just give away casually.
Even if he wanted to give it to her, he didn't know what kind of weapon Shi Wanyun needed now.
Melee or ranged?
If Shi Wanyun's situation was really as he imagined, what she needed most now might not be weapons.
But...
【Hidden Cloak】!
If the other person has a Cloak of the Hidden, maybe I can communicate with him!
but……
The Cloak of the Stealth is a product of Zhao Xiaochuan's ability and is considered one of their explorers' trump cards.
