Don't mess with that dragon

Chapter 138

The colorless god of death is just a cold current that occurs like a landslide, but the main body of this landslide is a cold current that occurs in the sky above thousands of kilometers, and when this cold current falls from the sky and sweeps across the earth, it freezes the affected areas. Everything within the range is dissipated in at most one day.

Therefore, if there is a living body living in the house cave, with the temperature insulation ability of the house cave, the short-term cold current will not cause much harm to the people inside, let alone the dragon nest orcs staying here. The remnants of the Bloodclaw tribe that lived there were not in the center of the cold fall.

Sure enough, Austin soon found the dragon nest orcs staying in the stronghold, a total of more than [-] people, including those mercenary captives who were not transported here to mine.

Because the cold winter came without warning, a total of more than 200 dragon nest orcs were trapped here. Fortunately, after the blood claw tribe branch was shattered, there were still a lot of building materials on the ruins, so they built houses. There is no need to worry too much about the materials. At the same time, because there was a lot of food stored in the Blood Claw Tribe branch, the Dragon Nest Tribe temporarily looked down on these foods, and they were unwilling to transport the food for more than [-] miles. Go to the Dragon Nest station, so within the entire tribal stronghold, there is enough food for the Dragon Nest orcs to consume.

Although the cold winter came suddenly and cut off the connection with the Dragon Nest tribe, under the supervision of the Dragon Nest orcs, coupled with the terrible danger in the ice and snow outside, these mercenary captives went through several days of high-severity Mining work, [-]% to [-]% of the strength of the body, coupled with the guards of many extraordinary orcs, these mercenary captives did not cause any trouble.

In fact, if these mercenary captives resisted, not to mention how low the success rate was, even if they managed to escape, it would be impossible to obtain enough food sources on the snow-covered land. In the cold weather, there are basically ten deaths and no life, and there is at least one way to survive.

The two hundred orcs who stayed at the stronghold here were integrated with the one hundred orcs brought by Austin to form a small team of three hundred dragon nest orcs.

And this time in the copper smelting work, the three hundred dragon nest orcs were the main labor force.

The preparatory work for copper smelting has basically been completed, and a large amount of charcoal, copper mines, and blast furnaces have been prepared. In fact, if the cold winter did not come suddenly that day, I am afraid that the next day would have started copper smelting.

"I don't know if copper can be smelted in this weather."

The sky was covered with dark clouds, and large flakes of snow fell and covered the ground. Fortunately, after a whole day, the cold current in the valley of the stronghold had gradually dissipated. The ice layer is also a lot of work.

"Build a shelter from the heavy snow first."

Seeing the orcs clearing the surrounding ice and snow in the heavy snow, Austin frowned slightly. In such a heavy snow, not to mention whether the fire can be lit, even if the blast furnace is lit, the snowflakes falling from the sky may It will have a bad effect on copper smelting.

What's more, in such a heavy snowfall, the work of the orcs is indeed a bit difficult.

So soon, some orcs were separated and went to the ruins of the Blood Claw Tribe to collect the remaining building materials, moved them to the valley, and erected simple sheds next to the blast furnaces to keep out the heavy snow.

In such a cold winter, the soil is almost frozen as hard as a stone, and it is difficult to dig holes in the ground and set up wooden stakes. Fortunately, among the three hundred orcs, there are many extraordinary people, and they use their strength to dig the soil with stones. , but barely doable.

Not long after, the dragon nest orcs simply built the skeleton of a pergola, and then spread a lot of thatch on the top of the wooden frame, and at the same time simply covered three sides, so a simple pergola to block the heavy snow is established.

at the same time,

The rest of the orcs also cleaned up the ice layer covering the charcoal ore pile, and moved these materials into the pergola.

"Open the furnace!"

Seeing that the preparations have been completed, Austin did not hesitate, and directly ordered the furnace to be opened.

Originally, the furnace could be started to smelt copper after the materials were prepared that day. Unfortunately, the weather was not good, and the cold winter came suddenly, coupled with the falling cold current, which caused many troubles in the follow-up processing.

But no matter how troublesome it is, copper smelting has to start. The dragon nest orcs are not lacking in physical strength, but the land reclamation work was delayed for a while because there is no suitable tool to start the metal age. Both strength and productivity have great benefits.

Under Austin's command, the orcs put charcoal into the soil blast furnace through the gap on the top. After the charcoal filled one-fifth of the soil blast furnace, they put in a few pieces of copper ore, and then filled it with charcoal , Repeatedly, put the copper ore in another layer of charcoal, and finally use charcoal to cover all the gaps on the top.

At the same time, Quick the Fox-faced Man walked out of the team. In this icy and snowy world, it is basically impossible to make fire with bricks and wood, but fortunately, Quick the Fox-faced Man has a piece in his hand that can stimulate flames. The scepter of the explosive technique was barely used as a fire starter.

Quake does have the potential to be a warlock. After obtaining these two magic tools and continuing to practice, he is already able to easily control the power of them.

Buzz!
Quick raised the scepter in his hand, a faint red light flickered in the scepter, the air around the red crystal rippled and rippled visible to the naked eye, and the fire attribute magic power in the air was condensing.

next moment,
bake!
A line of hot flames shot out from the red crystal, shuttled in through the vents below, and shot into the charcoal at the bottom of the clay blast furnace, immediately burning a flame visible to the naked eye.

The ray of flames lasted for a while, and when they knew that the charcoal under the blast furnace had turned red, they stopped.

"Okay, blow the wind!"

Immediately, a strong orc came out, put the crude blower that had already been fired on the vent, and started to turn the rough blower violently, following the wind The influx continued, and soon the entire soil blast furnace was burning up, and the dazzling light entered everyone's eyes through the gap of the soil blast furnace.

And as the strong orc got tired, the next orc took over, and so on, until about an hour later, the charcoal in the blast furnace was basically burned.
