Farming with Entries: From Lord to Emperor

Chapter 791 - 363: Flying Serpent Dragon

...

...

As Fa Fuke and Luo De spoke, a servant serving the wizard apprentices brought forward a long wooden box.

The wizard apprentices were responsible for engraving runes, while the subsequent wrapping of the sword handle with belts and attaching sheaths were done by regular people.

Fa Fuke picked up a completed enchanted longsword and introduced it to Luo De: "As you mentioned before, the rune gold pieces are embedded in the grooves."

"And the sword blade has no runes, yet it still carries an enchantment effect."

Fa Fuke handed the sword to Luo De, adding, "The enchantment effect is extremely sharp."

"Hmm."

Luo De nodded slightly, took the sword with one hand, and turned to the test dummy.

The dummy was a skeleton of a silver ghoul; Luo De swung the sword forcefully, slicing off half of its left arm.

The sword’s enchantment effect was similar to the refined edge, sufficient for equipping an ordinary army.

Luo De handed the sword to the servant and asked Fa Fuke, "Can a sword only have one enchantment effect?"

"Yes."

Fa Fuke replied, "These are all forged by masters in the royal blacksmith shop; otherwise, it’s hard to enchant regular iron."

"Does that mean we need better materials?" Luo De asked.

"Yes."

Fa Fuke nodded, "With black steel, the enchantment effect can reach two or even three types."

"To deal with the undead, it’s best to have magical attacks; is there such an enchantment?" Luo De asked.

"Yes, such as the primary burning enchantment or primary freezing enchantment."

Fa Fuke explained, "But the chance of triggering is very low, about five percent, so it can’t be considered a primary enchantment."

"Hmm, you’re right."

After thinking for a moment, Luo De turned to the guard Serge, "Have Fisher send over the list of mineral veins discovered recently by the demon hunter squad."

Fox Girl Fisher had started working for the Empire after her arrival, mainly responsible for sorting and recording resources in various towns.

Previously, each noble managed their own territory, but now all this information has to be reported to the Empire for unified mining.

"Yes, my lord."

Serge quickly ran out to convey the order.

Luo De turned around and sat down at the long table beside him, while Fa Fuke had a servant brew tea and followed him.

"Sit down, Fa Fuke, there’s no need to be formal between us."

Luo De said with a smile, "Here we are both spellcasters, focusing on knowledge and magic."

Fa Fuke nodded and sat next to Luo De.

"Fa Fuke, when those wizard apprentices are engraving runes,"

Luo De watched the working wizard apprentices and asked, "What is the most important thing?"

Fa Fuke thought seriously for a moment and replied, "Stable magic power, precise rune patterns."

This answer was more or less what Luo De imagined, and he nodded thoughtfully.

"Then can we create something that helps them improve efficiency?" Luo De asked.

"Well..."

Fa Fuke watched the apprentices deep in thought.

After a while, Fa Fuke tentatively suggested, "Create some magical jewelry that can enhance their mental concentration?"

"Such magical jewelry would still only strengthen themselves; the threshold for engraving runes doesn’t decrease."

Luo De shook his head slightly and then asked, "Can the silver carving knife be turned into a magic item?"

"As long as the user’s spiritual power activates it, the knife will output stable magic."

"Can such a magic item be made?" Luo De asked.

"Well..."

Fa Fuke was a bit taken aback.

Luo De’s words suddenly took things in a new direction.

He realized that if magic could be stably output, then anyone familiar with runes could engrave them.

It didn’t even need to be a wizard apprentice; as long as the spiritual power was sufficient.

Wizard apprentices were rare, but skilled artisans were abundant in the Empire!

"Fa Fuke, can it be made?" Luo De pressed.

"Yes, a simple magic transmission rune..."

Fa Fuke gulped and said, "But some enchantment runes require different levels of magic power..."

"Can the magic power required by these enchantment runes be graded?"

Luo De asked without hesitation, "Like level one requiring three units of magic, level two six units, level three nine units of magic grading."

"Yes, many enchantment rune patterns have magic within a certain range,"

Fa Fuke nodded and confirmed, "The method you mentioned can cover."

The enchantment produced in this way, although not becoming a masterpiece, can be put into use.

"Then isn’t that simple?"

Luo De said with a smile, "Grade the magic output of the carving knife and let the wizard apprentices use it as needed."

Fa Fuke wasn’t foolish; when Luo De proposed grading, the idea of graded magic output for the carving knife had already appeared in his mind.

Moreover, it’s not difficult to make; the simplest method is adjusting the number of activated demon crystals.

But Fa Fuke instinctively resisted.

It felt that once such a magical carving knife was made, the threshold for enchantment would become exceptionally low.

Of course, Fa Fuke wouldn’t foolishly say such a thing.

Because for Luo De’s goal, this is the most correct choice.

"Lord Luo De, you are indeed incredibly creative."

Fa Fuke took a deep breath and slowly asked, "How did you come up with all this?"

"Isn’t it quite simple?"

Luo De smiled and said, "One of the biggest differences between us and animals is that we learn to use tools to improve efficiency."

Luo De spoke of it simply, but it was actually two completely different ways of thinking.
