Bringing the MC system to Middle-earth.

Chapter 28 New Equipment

The straight-line distance from the valley to Levi's castle is about 50 leagues, or about 240 kilometers.

As Levi traveled at full speed day and night without sleep, it didn't take long to cover the distance. He set out from the valley in the morning and arrived near the castle before dark the next day.

In fact, theoretically, if Levi travels in a straight line without taking into account other interferences, he can get home within one day.

However, on the one hand, the road he was walking on was not a straight line, but had quite a few detours. On the other hand, there were always obstacles of varying sizes on the road, such as trees, stones blocking the road, some potholes, and occasional orcas that popped up from time to time.

All these added to Levi's journey.

"It would be nice to have a horse that can run at full speed."

Levi couldn't help but think.

In MC, the maximum speed of a horse is 20m/s.

If you can ride a horse at full speed, not only can you reach the Valley in a day, you can even go to the Valley to eat in the morning and run back in the afternoon.

The horse I'm riding now is still a bit slow after all.

But there is no need to rush, as full-speed horses will be available sooner or later. Even without using speed potions to temporarily increase the speed, there is a chance that two horses will produce a faster pony.

As long as genes are selected from generation to generation, good horses will always appear.

pat pat pat.

The sound of horse hooves gradually became smaller. Levi stopped at the city gate. Before he entered, he noticed something wrong.

"What does this smell like?"

It smells a bit fishy and a bit rancid.

Wait, why is the small iron gate next to the city gate open?
What is that, Oak?

Levi's heart sank. He dismounted on the spot, walked quickly to the iron gate, kicked open the body of an Oak and walked in.

hiss--

Seeing the corpses all over the ground, Levi immediately understood what had happened and went to check the ranch.

Fortunately, there was no loss.

"You guys are really reckless."

A rough count showed that there were more than 200 corpses, including those of the Oakgar wolves, piled on the ground inside the city wall. Levi even had no idea where to step for a moment.

Not only on the ground, but there are also several hanging on the tops of the watchtowers on the city walls. It is obvious that they were thrown up by the iron golems.

Now I know where the reputation comes from.

"What kind of hatred do you have? You even came to my house to fight me?"

Levi opened the reputation interface and took a look.

[Misty Mountain Orc Reputation: -344 (Dead Enemy)]

Don’t say it, the hatred is actually quite big.

Clang.

Several iron golems passed by, dragging their cracked bodies.

It seems that we have not suffered any losses on our side.

Levi picked up a few iron ingots and a small red flower on the ground, shook his head, and planted them on the grass at the city gate.

No matter how powerful the iron golem is, it still has a health bar.

Twenty iron golems facing a hundred cavalrymen, this casualty ratio is actually very scary.

If these orcs were all fearless warriors, and had the right formation and tactical command, they might actually be able to fight the iron golems.

But it is obvious that these orcs do not have this quality. Levi can imagine that once a group of iron golems rush over, the orcs' formation will collapse.

One's own territory always needs to be taken care of.

It took some time to decompose the wolf carcasses into bones for use as fertilizer, and the orc carcasses were moved out for centralized incineration. Levi used a bucket to wash the ground several times to remove all the blood and odor.

After doing all this, Levi first took a look at the protozoa that did not have mc characteristics, especially the two horses.

"good."

Levi patted his horse's head.

The two horses were still healthy. Levi had left enough grass and water before he left, so they had not been hungry during this period. After cleaning up the inside of the city wall and taking out some iron to repair the damaged iron golem, Levi looked at his territory.

I always feel it's a bit small.

All the space vacated by previous expansions has been turned into farms and ranches.

Now we want to find a place to build an industrial zone, but there is no planning.

“We still have to continue to expand.”

Just do it.

Levi put the items in his backpack into the warehouse on the spot, and took out a large pile of building materials. He demolished and rebuilt the city wall, continuously extending it outward.

The expansion work lasted for more than a week. The workload was quite large, so Levi directly doubled the length of the city wall and raised it by several meters.

The territory area was increased several times, and a large area of ​​​​open space was created.

This action almost completely consumed the cobblestone reserves that Levi had dug in the previous two months. The large boxes in the warehouse that were originally full of them were directly emptied, and this was not even enough, so the thickness of the city wall at the back had to be temporarily reduced, and he would have to dig some stones to make up for it when he went out to mine later.

To be honest, at this moment, the area here is really large enough to be used as a private territory, and it can be used to build a city.

The city wall is more than 20 meters high and thick, and extends hundreds of meters to the left and right. It is not something an ordinary team of a hundred people can deal with.

I'm afraid that once you see the scale, you will be intimidated.

At this moment, nearly half of the relatively flat land on this small plain has been included in the city wall, and the remaining flat land is estimated to be able to support a large-scale expansion.

If the area is to be expanded further, Levi will have to manually modify the surrounding terrain.

"call--"

After expanding the territory, Levi immediately marked out a new area for future use as an industrial zone.

Furnace, anti-metallurgy, alloy furnace, anvil, workbench...

It is called an industrial area, but actually there is not much space for things and it looks very empty.

What's missing?

Levi felt that what was missing was a melting pot built with charred bricks.

Although the newly unlocked alloy casting module made Levi feel novel, he also felt a little bit regretful. After all, when it comes to the best smelting module, the Craftsman Soul must be ranked first.

Maybe some conditions have not been met.

Without thinking any more and without wasting any time, Levi put the iron and coal into the alloy furnace. Grains of experience fell from his body and entered the furnace.

Before long, pieces of elf steel came out of the furnace.

From now on, Levi can also make equipment for elves.

He made a set of elven steel armor on the spot, and after putting it on, he found that the armor value was a whole level higher than the iron suit.

Unfortunately, there is still a big gap from the diamond set.

But it’s not bad. After all, the raw materials are only iron and coal, which are very cheap and we can’t ask for more.

In terms of style, unlike the standard military armor with elven-style characteristics worn by the elves, this set of armor is similar to the iron set in shape. Upon closer inspection, some differences in details can be seen, and the color is also slightly different, which is silver-gray.

Weapons don't need to be made, as they are not as good as the +9 attack sword in hand. However, tools can be updated. Tools made of elven steel are slightly more durable than iron tools, and the digging speed is also a little faster.

It would be nice if it could be enchanted.

This was not the first time Levi thought so.

However, the materials for the enchantment table have always been a big problem.

After thinking carefully, Levi realized that he needed too many things, diamonds, obsidian, blaze rods, alchemy table...

Especially the alchemy table. The raw materials for the enchantment table are real after all and can always be obtained, but Levi really doesn’t know where to get the blaze rod for the alchemy table.

Unless this world can be connected to hell.

But is connecting to another dimension really allowed?

Levi thought to himself that he must give it a try if he had the chance.
