Don't mess with that dragon

Chapter 140 Difficulties
If it is iron, it needs subsequent forging to form various weapons and tools, while copper is cast with copper juice.

Just how to cast it is also a trouble, not to mention how to take out the melted copper juice from the high-temperature soil blast furnace and pour it into the mold while it is hot. It is estimated that the copper juice will cool down immediately when it encounters air, let alone casting.

"Oh, trouble!"

It was only now that Austin remembered that in the video he had watched in his previous life, the man who smelted iron in the wild with his bare hands only smelted a lump of iron, and there was no follow-up method of casting the lump of iron into weapons and tools .

Now, although copper has been smelted, everything that follows can only be designed by himself, but it happens that Austin is really not very good at these things designed by science and engineering.

After contemplating for an entire hour, Austin also came up with various improvement methods in his mind. Although these methods seem a bit rough, there is a certain possibility of realization after all.

However, these methods require the creation of new pottery modules.

As usual, just let the goblins burn the imaginary modules according to their ideas, but now it is cold winter, outside the splashing water, the first step of making pottery and mud cannot be completed, because the When the water breaks into the soil, it will not take long for the water in the mud to crystallize, so that the mud has no stickiness at all, and even the whole lump of mud is frozen into ice cubes, making pottery modules like this If you can't even pass the first step, how can you make those pottery?
In addition to the module problem, there are still many improvements in this soil blast furnace, which made Austin frown.

Therefore, Austin explained the following rough principles, and then handed over the follow-up matters directly to the goblins in the manufacturing workshop.

Anyway, the copper has been smelted, and it is only a matter of time before the copper blocks are made into weapons and tools. As long as the goblins try a few more times, these copper weapons and tools will always be made.

After describing the various directions in detail, Austin returned to the Dragon Nest station with two hundred Dragon Nest orcs.

This was also Austin's mistake. He thought that copper smelting was very simple without trying it himself. He thought that he only needed to smelt one or two furnaces and then follow the successful experience to start the copper smelting industry on a large scale. In a short time, the entire Dragon Nest All the orcs in the tribe used newly-made weapons and tools, but they did not expect that there would be many difficulties in the end, and the initial goal could only be regarded as half completed.

The next thing is to continue to experiment and find a method that can manufacture qualified weapons and tools in the cold winter. It is impossible to complete such an experiment within a month or two.

Since it is an experiment, there is naturally no need to keep too many orcs here, wasting manpower.

In this way, it was useless to stay too many Dragon Nest orcs, so Austin brought back two hundred Dragon Nest orcs, leaving only about one hundred Dragon Nest orcs stationed here for a long time.

This failure also gave Austin a reminder not to be too aggressive in everything. The consequences of bringing so many orcs here this time are just troublesome. If it is a matter of life and death, the consequences will be much more serious .

Of course, Austin also took the mercenary captives away from the copper ore stronghold when he left this time. Otherwise, it would be difficult for only a hundred dragon nest orcs to guard these guys.

A few days later, Austin, who had arranged everything, left the copper ore stronghold with a large team and embarked on a journey back to the Dragon Nest tribe's resident.

This copper smelting can't be said to be a complete failure, at least the copper can be separated from the copper ore, but because of the cold weather, it is difficult to carry out the next step of forging.

In fact, if it wasn't for the cold winter, Austin believed that as long as he stayed there for another day or two, he would naturally be able to find a way to forge, but now, he had to let the goblins do it themselves.

The copper ore stronghold is not too far from the Dragon Nest Tribe. It will take about an hour if the Dragon Nest orcs go all out for the journey of twenty miles. Although the speed is slowed down in the heavy snow, half a day is enough. Let the large troops return to the Dragon Nest tribe.

Nothing major happened in the tribe. With the start of the cold winter for almost ten days, the cold current at an altitude of [-] kilometers has been exhausted, and even the heavy snow in the sky has become much smaller. Although it is still cold, the outside world is not as cold as before. It was so cold the first day or two.

The dangerous time has passed, so taking advantage of the cold winter with few things to do, teams of orcs were pulled out to conduct a big drill. At the same time, the daily military training time began to increase. Of course, military training now exercises military discipline. At the same time, do not forget to carry out breathing exercises.

Looking at the huge open space, teams of orcs were well-disciplined, neatly lined up, and with uniform movements, Austin couldn't help but relax.

Looking down from a height, it was a land of forest and wasteland before, and houses stood upright and spread outwards, forming a small city between the entire Kava forest.

On the huge snow field, the well-trained orcs formed a black ocean, and the sound waves shook the sky.

At the same time, farther away are the fields that have been reclaimed, spreading out piece by piece.

Two years ago, this was just a green wild land without any fluctuations, but now, Austin has personally changed it with both hands, and established a tribe and a city on this wild land.

Although Austin has rarely participated in the establishment of the entire tribe, including the training and transformation of the army, the source of all this, whether it is the transformation of the army, the establishment of the system, or the land reclamation, was initiated by Austin. He turned his head and brought the seeds of civilization from the previous incident here, and under his care, it grew vigorously, and finally grew into what it is today, and may even grow into a towering tree in the future.

Since the matter of copper smelting cannot be accomplished in a short period of time, and the development of the Dragon Nest tribe has begun to enter the right track, Austin began to consider how to improve his own strength.

Although the Dragon Nest tribe will not encounter too many dangers in a short period of time, after all, there are still big secrets hidden in the lake near his tribe, and the sixth sense told him when he dived into the water last time that he wanted to break through those ghosts called ghosts. The blockade of weird grass plants and the deepest secrets can only be barely possible if you become a gold-level life plus the talent of the dragon itself.

Austin, on the other hand, was also very interested in what was hidden inside.
