Global Coming: Farming with my sister-in-law in the end times

Chapter 475: Frost Catapult and Corrosion Arrow Tower (6200)

"Bang!"

The door of the blacksmith shop was pushed open.

Cao Xing saw at a glance the two figures standing next to the forging table.

The dwarf blacksmith held a brand new sword in his hand, his eyes full of admiration!
At this moment, the sword is emitting waves of mysterious energy, revealing its majesty and power!
Next to him, another blacksmith apprentice was looking at his master with admiration.

at the same time.

Harold also noticed Cao Xing's arrival and immediately spoke respectfully.

"My Lord, you are here!"

Cao Xing nodded, then smiled and said, "I heard that you have successfully repaired Magdale, right?"

"Yes, your Excellency!"

Harold also seemed very excited at this time.

"This is the first legendary weapon I have ever repaired. There is not a single flaw in it. It will definitely bring you great power!"

"Please take a look!"

After saying this, he handed over the sword.

Cao Xing was also slightly excited and took the weapon from Harold's hand.

[Obtain: Ancient Sword - Magdel (Legend)]

...

Look at the properties.

【Ancient Sword-Magedel】

[Quality: Legend]

[Equipment level: above level 70]

[Attack power: 7852~7947]

[Additional special effect ①: All attributes +2000, critical hit rate +20%]

[Attached special effect ②: King’s authority (repaired successfully, already effective)]

[Attached special effect ③: King's command (repaired successfully, already effective)]

[Additional special effect ④: Sword of Judgment (Concentrate the weak divine power contained in the sword, cut out a terrifying sword energy, and cause 880% tearing damage to all enemies in front. Cooldown time: 7 days)]

[Additional effect ⑤: Enemy's Purgatory (same attributes as above)]

(Note: Enemy Purgatory will affect all friendly units except the lord, so please use it with caution)
...

"Turtle, a full 2000+ attacks, plus all attributes +!"

"This improvement is really terrifying!"

Cao Xing was full of praise.

If Liu Muxue were to equip this, not only would her attack power increase dramatically, but other blessing skills would also be greatly improved!

Moreover, all the special effects mentioned above can now be used, and can greatly enhance Liu Muxue's combat ability.

In addition, the most perverted special effect on this legendary weapon - Enemy Purgatory, can now be used.

Cao Xing thought: "Although this weapon is powerful, it is too dangerous."

"If you use it carelessly, it will turn all your units into undead, which will be very fun."

Of course, Liu Muxue would definitely not be so stupid.

If she had just come to this world, Cao Xing would not have dared to hand this kind of weapon to her.

But after a few months of getting along, both sides have come to trust each other.

Maybe... this is also the meaning of the family model.

Moreover, the repaired legendary weapon has become a level 70 weapon. In order to equip it, Liu Muxue has to upgrade it to level 11 more.

Cao Xing put it into his backpack and said, "Harold, well done!"

"Keep working. I'm going to go out now."

"As you command, Lord Lord!"

After leaving the blacksmith shop.

Cao Xing looked at the sword and shield in his backpack, and an excited look appeared on his face!

Now, there are two legendary weapons in his backpack waiting to be bound!

In this way, not only can the combat effectiveness of Liu Muxue and Braum be greatly enhanced.

At the same time, the title of [Star Picker] can also gain a bonus of 20 points of luck.

"Also, the hidden dangers of the ancient battlefield have been resolved. Once the monster siege is over, I can go to Yongshuang Main City to redeem the rewards!"

"By then, we'll have one more legendary weapon."

"Next, the strength of these warriors of mine will usher in a period of rapid growth!"

Thinking of this, I feel better.

"Next, we will go find Juliette and Little Neve and ask them to plant the seeds of these ancient trees."

Cao Xing was just about to take action.

A system prompt appears.

[Melinde City Chamber of Commerce: Jace applies to visit your territory...]

...

Cao Xing was slightly stunned.

"It's that old guy Jace. Isn't he in Melinde City? Why did he come to my territory?"

With a puzzled look, he clicked OK.

Outside the territory, a convoy was rapidly approaching the territory.

More than a dozen carriages moved forward in an orderly manner.

A small half of the carriages were loaded with cargo, but most of them were empty.

The wheels rolled over the thick snow, making a "crunch! crunch!" sound.

Dozens of figures gradually approached.

It was the merchant Jace, whom I had met twice before, and his guards.

Speaking of which, this businessman left a pretty good impression on Cao Xing.

Last time in Melinde City, I received a lot of care from him.

So, Cao Xing also went forward, and the two sides met quickly, with a polite smile on their faces!

"President Jace, how are you?"

"Lord Cao Xing, long time no see!"

The two exchanged pleasantries, like old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.

The group of guards behind Jace looked at the scene with strange expressions.

They really didn't know that the vice president of their chamber of commerce had such a good relationship with a lord from another world.

After a pause, Cao Xing asked, "President Jace, how come you have time to come to my territory?"

Hearing this, businessman Jace also showed helplessness on his face.

"That's right, Lord Cao Xing."

"I was originally leading a caravan, trading in the villages around the city of Melinde."

"After walking for almost a week, I heard a piece of news that Gwyneth had left Melinde alone."

"Her father and I were close friends. Before he died, her father asked me to take good care of the girl."

"If anything happens to this girl, I will really be ashamed of this old friend..."

"So, we sent a large number of people out of the city to search for her, but we couldn't find her."

"It wasn't until a few days ago that I learned that Gwyneth asked about you before she left."

"So I guessed that she might come to your territory and bring people here immediately."

A look of realization appeared in Cao Xing's eyes.

Gwyneth is indeed from the Woodpecker Chamber of Commerce.

Cao Xing did not deny it, "She is indeed in my territory."

Hearing this, the businessman Jace's eyes showed a look of "as expected".

Then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's good that she's here. I never thought that after losing her voice, this girl could actually travel over 500 kilometers by herself and come to your territory alone."

Cao Xing replied: "I also found it incredible, so I let her live in my territory."

"President Jace, are you coming here this time to bring Gwyneth back with you?"

The middle-aged man seemed to realize something.

He quickly shook his head and said, "Lord Cao Xing, please don't misunderstand."

"I didn't come here this time to take her back. I just didn't want anything to happen to her outside."

"If she wants to, I certainly won't force her to leave."

"Gwyneth has been unhappy since she lost her voice. It would be nice if she could relax in your territory for a while."

Jace had a smile on his face.

Cao Xing nodded.

Gwyneth not only has master-level singing skills, but also has a stunning appearance and talent for musical instruments.

It can be said that even if he can no longer sing, he is still a rare talent.

And now that Jace lets Gwyneth stay in his territory, it's obvious that he wants to do her a favor.

Of course, another reason is that Cao Xing’s territory is strong enough.

Jess believes that Gwyneth is safer and has better development here.

At the same time, the businessman cupped his hands and said, "Lord Cao Xing, since it has been confirmed that this girl is in your territory, I am relieved."

"I won't bother you now."

After saying that, he prepared to take his people away.

But Cao Xing stopped him, "President Jess, wait a minute."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man turned his head and looked at him in confusion.

Cao Xing continued, "I wonder if you want to do business with me?"

Hearing this, he seemed to understand something and his eyes gradually lit up.

"You mean the Guangyu eggs you told me about last time?"

Cao Xing shook his head and said, "Guangyu eggs are not that fast."

"It's only been a month since we last met. It takes at least several months for a bare-feathered chicken to grow normally into an adult."

After hearing this, Jace realized that he was being too hasty and chuckled twice.

But Cao Xing shook his head and said, "However, since you have come here so rarely, I cannot let you return empty-handed."

Hearing this, the businessman Jace's eyes gradually lit up, and then he asked tentatively: "What do you mean..."

"Look at this."

After saying that, Cao Xing took out a bottle of [Craft Rum (Green)] and [Dream Magic Wine (Gold)] and handed them to him.

After the businessman Jace took it, he first opened the cap of the rum bottle. A rich aroma of wine immediately came, even making people feel refreshed!

Instantly exclaimed.

"Good wine!"

“This rum is of very high quality, even compared to other craft rums on the market, it is of superior quality!”

“This is the real rum.”

Rum is a common alcoholic beverage on the continent. Some adventurers and mercenaries like to go to the tavern to have a few drinks.

But most pubs sell regular rum.

The price difference between craft rum and ordinary rum is as much as ten times.

The main reason, of course, is that the raw materials for craft beer are more difficult to obtain.

In the absence of sap, those wineries will use some other materials instead.

Of course, the effect is definitely not as good as that of tree sap.

The batch of craft rum in Cao Xing's hands is made strictly according to the ingredients on the recipe.

That's why Jace gave such a high evaluation to this bottle of rum.

At the same time, he opened the bottle cap of Dream Wine.

As a strange fragrance appeared, Jess' pupils suddenly widened and he exclaimed.

"This taste is... the signature brew of Duolun Lake City's Dream Tavern, Dream Magic Wine!"

"Oh my god, all the lives in this city were sacrificed in blood before. I thought this magic wine was extinct!"

“I didn’t expect to see this kind of wine again in Lord Cao Xing’s territory.”

Cao Xing smiled and nodded, "I wonder if Sir Jess is interested in buying it?" The businessman Jess asked doubtfully, "You mean... you want to trade these two kinds of wine with me?"

Cao Xing nodded slightly, "If the price is fair, I would certainly be happy to trade with you."

The middle-aged man thought for a moment, then said, "For fine rum, the general market price is about two thousand crowns."

“However, those are just inferior rums, which are far inferior to Lord Cao Xing’s!
"In that case, I will buy your fine rum at the price of 4,000 kronor per liter. What do you think?"

Hearing this number, Cao Xing did a quick calculation.

However, he did not agree immediately, but continued to ask: "What about the other kind of magic wine?"

A thoughtful look appeared in the eyes of the businessman Jace again.

"Another Dream Wine..."

"The Dream Tavern's previous price was 10 kronor per liter. I will buy it at 1 kronor per liter. What do you think?"

Jess, the price is very fair.

In this way, he only makes a profit of 20,000 kronor per liter, which also requires deducting labor costs, transportation costs, taxes, etc.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

In the end, I didn’t make much money.

This price is similar to the value Cao Xing estimated.

There are currently 11300 liters of craft rum in stock, which, at 4520 kronor per liter, amounts to million kronor.

Then, there are 600 liters of Dream Wine in stock, and if all of it is sold, the profit will be 4800 million.

The total profit here is 9320 million, which is quite good.

Although he could now ask Fitz Walker directly for money.

But who would complain about having more money?
Moreover, it is also important to establish your own trading system.

In the future, Cao Xing will also sell agate grapes, silver dew berries, etc. to the Moon Goddess Chamber of Commerce.

The livestock industry in the territory is contracted by the Black Lion Chamber of Commerce.
The production of alcoholic beverages will be handed over to the Woodpecker Chamber of Commerce.

This is equivalent to the three chambers of commerce establishing long-term cooperative relations with his territory.

So, Cao Xing nodded and said, "No problem, let's trade at this price!"

Jace also smiled happily.

"Lord Cao Xing is really straightforward!"

Then, Cao Xing pressed the communication device on his ear and said.

"Liu Zhuang, take a few polar people to the brewery and take out all the wine we have had during this period."

"Understood, Lord Lord!"

Upon hearing the order, the polar people in the territory immediately took action.

A few minutes later.

Large wooden barrels filled with large amounts of wine were carried out by these polar people and piled together.

After running back and forth many times, more than a hundred wooden barrels were stacked together.

It's still quite shocking!
And when Jace saw so many barrels of wine, a smile instantly broke out on his face!
He thought that Cao Xing's territory had only been developed for a short time and supplies must be very scarce.

Even if the production of alcohol has started, there probably isn't much inventory.

But now it seems that the wine reserves that Cao Xing has seem to be beyond his imagination!

The surprise in his eyes became even stronger.

"Okay, okay! Lord Cao Xing really won't let me go back empty-handed. This much wine is an incredible fortune!"

"If I hadn't brought enough crowns with me before I went out this time, I wouldn't have been able to buy so many things."

Cao Xing also smiled.

"So now, let's just trade?"

"No problem!" Jace agreed readily.

The two sides quickly completed a wave of transactions.

[Transaction successful! You lost [Fine Rum]*11300 liters, [Dream Wine]*600 liters, and you gained [Coins]*9320 million...]
...

Cao Xing's assets increased dramatically again. Considering the 1 million kronor that he had not spent this morning, his assets are now almost over million.

I felt so relieved.

After getting the money, Cao Xing was in a good mood.

So he asked Da Zhuang and others to help load the barrels of wine onto the caravan's carriages.

After a while, all the wine was loaded into the truck.

Cao Xing took a look at the cargo on their carriage.

Then he asked, "Sir Jace, did you bring any good stuff with you when you went out to do business this time?"

Now that I have money, of course I have to spend some to see if I can improve my strength.

Jace understood what Cao Xing meant and nodded.

"Ordinary things probably don't catch your eye."

"But this time, I did get some good stuff. Lord Cao Xing can take a look."

A system prompt appears.

[Woodpecker Chamber of Commerce: Jace opens his goods list to you, do you accept it? ]

Cao Xing clicked accept directly.

The next moment, several things appeared in front of him.

[Corrosion Arrow Tower Construction Blueprint (Gold)]: Price: 600 million crowns

[Frost Cannonball Catapult Construction Blueprint (Orange)]: Price: 2000 million crowns

[Cursed Bead (Gold)]: Price: 300 million crowns (3 pieces in stock)
……

There were only three items in the entire store.

But as Jess said, everything is special!
Needless to say, the corrosive arrow tower is a golden quality arrow tower, so you don't need to think about it to know that it must be very powerful!

There is also an additional Frost Cannonball Catapult, which is even of epic quality!
You know, the few stone machines that I robbed from the goblin camp last time were only of blue quality.

This frost cannon catapult is definitely extraordinary.

Cao Xing exclaimed: "President Jess, these three things of yours are really good stuff!"

There was also a slight smugness on Jace's face.

He smiled and replied, "Yes, those two drawings are my best treasures, and I won't take them out easily."

"As for the other three curse beads, I found them on the black market with you last time."

Cao Xing nodded, "I want all three."

The businessman Jesse suddenly laughed.

"Lord Cao Xing is still as straightforward as ever!"

"Then let's make the deal now!"

After that, the two sides conducted another round of transactions.

[Transaction successful! You obtained [Corrosion Arrow Tower Construction Blueprint (Gold)], you obtained [Frost Catapult Construction Blueprint (Orange)], you obtained [Loyalty Pearl (Gold)]*3, you lost [Coins]*3500 million...]
[Ding! The item [Diamond Membership Card] takes effect. For this transaction, 20% of your coins will be returned. You get: [Coins]*700 million...]
...

Seeing the second tip, Cao Xing laughed.

This [Diamond Membership Card] is really a good thing. It saved me 700 million kronor in one transaction.

It’s hard to imagine how much benefit this will bring him in the long run!
After the transaction was completed, Jace asked someone to take down another package from the car and handed it to Cao Xing.

"Lord Cao Xing, these are Gwyneth's personal belongings."

"There are some books she usually reads, as well as her clothes and so on."

"Since she has joined your territory, you should hand these things over to this girl."

Cao Xing took it and it suddenly felt heavy in his hand.

There looked to be at least dozens of books in this package.

After a pause, Jace said, "By the way, please pass this on for me."

"Although Gwyneth can no longer sing, my friendship with her father is still there. She can return to Melinde City anytime she wants."

Cao Xing took it and said, "I see. I'll pass it on to her."

The businessman nodded again and looked at the sky.

"It's getting late. We need to rush to our next stop before dark."

"Lord Cao Xing, see you next time."

Cao Xing nodded, "Okay, see you next time."

After saying that, Jace returned to the caravan.

Then, he left the territory with more than a dozen carriages.

...

...

After the caravan left, Cao Xing couldn't wait to take a look at the attributes of the three items he had just obtained from the transaction.

[Corrosion Tower Construction Blueprint (Gold)]

[Blueprint Description: You can build a corrosive arrow tower in your territory. Arrows hitting the enemy can reduce their armor.]

【攻击力：1745~1833（有100%的概率减少敌人100点护甲，最高叠加10次）】

[Attack interval: 1.5 seconds/1 time]

[Maximum range: 1500 meters]

[Armor: 450 points]

Durability: 25000/25000

【Area: 48 square meters】

【Building height: 19 meters】

[Materials required for construction: Level 16 furnace, 1 wood, 5000 stones, 2000 iron, 200 mithril, 20 high-level element crystals]

……

After seeing the properties of this drawing, Cao Xing was amazed!

"This thing is quite powerful!"

The attack power of the Corrosion Arrow Tower is not high, only over one thousand.

However, the most important thing about this turret is its armor-reducing ability.

It can be stacked up to 10 times, which adds up to a full 1000 points of armor reduction, which is quite abnormal.

Cao Xing put it into his backpack with satisfaction, and then looked at the second drawing.

[Frost Cannonball Catapult Construction Drawing (Orange)]

[Blueprint Description: You can make a catapult that can automatically condense frost shells, causing large-scale freezing damage to the enemy]

[Attack power: 34912~35732 (no need to reload ammunition, a frost shell will be automatically condensed every 5 seconds)]

[Attack interval: 5 seconds/1 time]

[Attack effect: After landing, cause 30% ice damage to enemies within 121 meters, and have a 30% chance of freezing the enemies.]

[Maximum range: 3000 meters]

[Armor: 1500 points]

[Durability value: 8 million/8 million]

[Materials required for construction: Level 11 Lord Castle, Advanced Mechanical Factory, 3 Refined Iron, 2 Copper, 5000 Mithril, 1000 Eternal Gold Ingots, 1000 Master-level Elemental Crystals]

……

"Oh my god... Automatically condensing frost shells, isn't this equivalent to a trebuchet with unlimited ammunition?"

"Moreover, this thing has an attack power of over 30,000, and it's a range attack!"

"If I build a few thousand of them, who the hell would dare to attack my territory?"

Of course, it is quite difficult to build so many trebuchets.

The materials required are so many that building just one machine would bankrupt an ordinary survivor.

Even Cao Xing himself was unable to carry out large-scale production.

However, it is still possible to produce a few units.

I thought to myself, "Locke has been concentrating on making robots lately, so he probably doesn't have time to make a catapult like this."

"It just so happens that I don't have enough materials right now. I'll let him make this for a few days after the robot army is formed."

In my mind, I have already made plans for what to do next.

Next, the last thing.

[Curse of Fortune (Gold)]

【Quality: Treasure】

[Item effect: After using it on a creature, its luck value will be reduced by 24 points in the next 100 hours]

……
