Mountain fortress, Knight Hall, Sylvia sat on the Iron Throne, absently reading through a pile of information letterheads left by Victor.

Under the steps of the throne, Tracey and Nicole get together to study a thorium heavy crossbow. They were discussing enthusiastically, and from time to time they let out silver bells of admiration.

"The formidable power of the Thorium heavy crossbow is much stronger than that of the military heavy crossbow, but the winding is too difficult. It is difficult for ordinary vassals to wring the crossbow. This is for the Level 2 source Blood Fighter. A sharp weapon."

"The level 2 source Blood Fighter uses Thorium heavy crossbows, and the winding speed is still too slow. Level 3 source Blood Fighter, which is the first-level spiritual warrior, is almost the same... The question is whether Thorium can Popularity, if it can be popularized, this Rare Item material will have more uses, not just to make military heavy crossbows."

"It certainly can... Victor purchases softsilver ore for construction In the city walls of Flatlake Town and Raven Town, he had already started to stock thorium mines, and he allowed the craftsman’s standard crossbow to penetrate the armor within 80 meters, and the metal bow must be cast with keel steel. Master Edwin thought it was the standard at the time. The cost of the crossbow is too high to be of practical significance. If he knew that Victor had Thorium, he would not have said that." Nicole stroked the thorium ant armor on her body with joy in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.

The thorium armor she wears is beautiful in shape and fits perfectly. It is undoubtedly designed by Victor. Tracey also wears a double silver armor tailored by Victor for her, but her armor is made of water lizard skin, integrated with Thorium and Mithril. Although it is more compatible with the void Water Element than ordinary Mithril armor, the material of the armor is not better. Ant-man carapace on the silver level.

Nicole's thorium armor is bright and clean. It is made of Rare Item material at first glance. In terms of appearance alone, Tracey's Thorium armor is worse than Nicole's. However, the Extraordinary Knight is not suitable for equipping the Thorium Ant-Man armor with elemental resistance, and the water lizard double silver armor is particularly suitable for the needs of high-level Dame.

However, Nicole has two sets of thorium armor, one is the thorium ant-man armor used by the veteran Knight, and the other is the thorium water lizard armor used by the advanced Dame.

Tracey only has a set of double silver armor. She thinks Victor is partial, but due to the identity of the teacher, it is not good to roll her eyes at her student because of one missing gift.

Looking at the corners of Nicole’s raised mouth, Tracey couldn’t help but reprimanded: “The key issue is the smelting process of thorium mine and the casting process of thorium equipment. If the output of thorium is lower than that of keel steel , It can only be used as a rare Rare Item material and will not bring huge strategic advantages to the family."

Nicole took a triumphant glance at Tracey, raised the jade hand to attract the manager of the mountain fortress, and asked Said: "Buso, what is the refining ratio of thorium mine? How much is the ratio of thorium ore for casting a piece of thorium equipment?"

"Madam, the thorium mine refining ratio is related to the quality of the ore, mountain fortress The current thorium extraction ratio is about 135:1. Thorium blending ratio is related to the blending material, stone is the highest, wood is second, and then various metals. The blending ratio of biomass leather is the lowest, and the blending ratio of water lizard leather is only 10. : 3. "The alchemy assistant Buso introduced seriously.

The water lizard's double silver armor only needs this little Thorium...Nicole almost didn't laugh. As for the ratio of Thorium's integration, the lower the better, she didn't care.

"How about the blending ratio of Ant-Man Thorium armor?" Tracey asked in a cold voice.

"Less than ten to two, higher than ten to one."

"Oh, so little."

Nicole couldn't laugh anymore. , She and Tracey's gazes met, and they received it at the touch of a touch, and there seemed to be a sour smell spreading in the hall.

Sylvia doesn't care about the collision between the two fruit vinegar jars. The mountain fortress secretly built by Victor surpassed her imagination and made her especially annoyed.

The fortress was built with solid rock bricks in the depths of the skylark mountain range. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing a cliff. It is majestic and hidden. No one can think of Fortress City simply as a stone building. There are warehouses, barracks, animal pens, farmland, iron and wood workshops, pharmaceutical laboratories, and mountains of food and supplies, and thousands of them have been bred. Fat-eared pigs. Relying on this well-equipped fortification, Victor brought thousands of square kilometers of mountains and forests under his control, and even used the animal language wizard Imerson to enslaved the goblins, opened up a swamp forward base, and continuously obtained all kinds of resources from Great Swamp.

More than ten crystal candlestick chandeliers hung on the ceiling of the Knight Hall are enough to prove that the mountain fortresses are rich and rich, not to mention that there are also fine gold, mithril, and various priceless and unique rare treasures in the treasure house. It took Sylvia an hour just to read the account book, and Victor had no time to look through the knowledge and technical information that Victor had ordered.

Thorium is undoubtedly the most precious Rare Item material in mountain fortresses. Its practical significance can be the same as gold potions and rock brick mention on equal terms. To be precise, it is more valuable to Centaur Hills. Because Thorium Armaments have substitutes, not sensitive resources like rock bricks. It is like the keel steel of the Friedrich family. It can completely control the scale of transactions and achieve technical monopoly by falsely reporting costs and output, thus bringing long-term strategic advantages to the family.

"Is there Thorium Fusion technology in this?" Sylvia pointed to the pile of scroll storage boxes next to him, and asked the fortress master.

Buso bowed and replied: "Master Mistress, there are no technical scrolls related to Thorium."

Tracey listened to Buso’s answer and ignored Nicole’s Bickering, asked coldly: "Why not?"

"No comment." The alchemy assistant replied blankly.

Thorium fusion technology is invaluable, but Victor has put Thorium on the table without worrying about it flying away. The fortress manager Buso is obviously also a human being transformed by Victor using the ancient Rare Item. His soul is incomplete, and there will be no results when interrogating him. Sylvia is now more concerned about where the wealth created by the mountain fortresses flows?

If Victor has not left Centaur Hills, she can just ask, since Victor is expeditioning to the endless forest, she doesn't know when she will return. Over time, the huge potential power brought by wealth will inevitably get out of control.

This is something that Sylvia cannot tolerate. She raised her hand to stop her oath. Knight continued to question the fortress chief, said with a beautiful smile: "You said, when was Victor built the mountain fortress?"

Nicole and Tracey looked at each other in blank dismay, hesitated for a while, and said uncertainly: "It should be some years..."

Buso only heard the question of Mistress , Without even thinking about it, he said in the interface: "The mountain fortress was built twelve years ago."

"Twelve years ago...that was during the ant plague, Victor secretly built the skylark mountain range Castle." Sylvia coldly snorted, said: "He has guarded me, until now...Damn it!"

Nicole and Tracey were silent, after a while, it was Tracey. Persuaded by words: "Victor was also normal to beware of us at the beginning. I guess he didn't say it because he was afraid that you were angry...Look, he has slipped away quietly now. Didn't all the things here tell us?"

"Master Mistress, are you angry with your master?" Buso asked abruptly.

Sylvia moved in her heart and nodded: "Yes, I am very angry."

Unsurprisingly, the fortress chief explained further: "You are angry, the master has a gift for you. Please wait...you, go and bring the gift the master left for Mistress."

A fortress guard retired, and after a while, he returned to the Knight Hall with a long box, respectfully Present it respectfully to Sylvia on the throne.

She took out a four-foot-long thin thorn sword from the box. It should be said that it was a one-handed long thorn without a blade. Its color is bleak and unremarkable. The handle is inlaid with four element crystals of the same size: yellow, red, blue, and green, which may be the only decoration of this weapon.

Sylvia can't help being emotional while holding the hilt, flipping his wrist, sinking slightly, and the stabbing sword silently sinks into the hard floor tiles, without any obstruction, and then there is a white frosty self-stabbing sword Condensation spread to all around, the temperature in the hall dropped suddenly, and it was as cold as an ice cellar in an instant.

Nicole stared wide-eyed, she did not see Sylvia manifesting the void element, but the thorn of Queen Rose is obviously the erosion and freezing characteristics of the void Water Element.

"This is...Nakhtigal's'Black Sword'?!" Tracey exclaimed, seeing Nicole's inquisitive gaze, calming down, and explaining, "The Nakhtigal family for generations Legend has it that the'Black Sword' dates back to the Chosen One era. It is said that it is a Rare Item Divine Sword with a feat of slaying dragons. It can transmit the element of the void instead of the manifestation of the mithril sword. So it can break through the giant dragon. Elemental resistance, kill it... The Nahtigal family not only used the Black Sword to kill giant dragons, but at the end of the Chosen One era, they followed the first Pope Enoch Your Majesty and rebelled against the tyranny of the wizard. They used the'Black Sword' 'Make great achievements.'

"'Black Sword' is made of black gold is no secret, but the method of extracting black gold has long been lost...didn't expect Victor to reproduce the black gold forging method "Tracey said with envy.

Sylvia smiled like a flower, stroking the thin sting sword gently, and asked: "This is actually the tip of a gun, where is the gun body?"

Buso stepped forward and replied: "Master Mistress, Saron magic iron ore is very rare, and the refining ratio is also very low. The reserve of Saron magic iron in mountain fortresses is only enough to make this spear tip. Because the source of Saron magic iron ore on Great Swamp has been cut off, We are currently unable to create a matching gun body for you."

Sylvia nodded, smiled and said: "I will write a letter to Victor and tell him that I am very satisfied with the gift he gave me...you all Retreat."

Buso and a few fortress guards bowed and retire, and when they left the Knight Hall, Sylvia instructed Nicole and Tracey: "I have two requirements... First, about the king of ants. The intrusion information must not be leaked out to prevent hundreds of thousands of tenants from escaping from Centaur Hills. We also don’t have to do anything superfluous. All plans and arrangements must wait for Victor to send back information and instructions before they can be formulated and implemented...I I have a hunch that the ant plague will not break out in Centaur Hills."

She paused and continued: "The second requirement, up to one year, the news that His Royal Highness Randal will go to the Endless Forest to detect Ant-Man will It spreads, but he will have to wait two, three years, or even longer to return. In order to prevent certain forces from targeting Lilia, I will bring her back to Rose Manor and let her assist Katerina in managing the double-headed Chamber of Commerce."

Nicole's heart suddenly tightened, and she retorted: "But, I need Lilia here..."

"Nothing." Sylvia interrupted Nicole's words, coldly said:" I like the gift Victor gave me. It doesn’t mean that I forgive him for trying his best to beware of me. Hmph, even if he secretly built a mountain fortress, he also traded mithril fine gold with the Chebman family... Besides, thorium matters. Lilia is leading the softsilver ore transaction between Flatlake Town and the Chebman family. Even if she doesn’t know it, I’ll take over and gradually cut off the softsilver ore transaction so as not to be noticed."

She moderated slightly. In his tone, he raised the letter paper in his hand, and said: "Victor is going to use the mountain fortress as the hawk school residence. Red Frost Tree Manor will concentrate resources on the development of hawk school apostles first, and I will also send someone to assist you."

Mrs. Sylvia applied both grace and power. Nicole was unable to object and had to silently nodded, but lost the wing shelter of His Royal Highness Randal. Feeling her own weakness, she secretly determined to be promoted to Silver Knight.

For Nicole's change of mentality, Sylvia clear as a flame. This is not the best time for Nicole to be promoted to extraordinary, but compared to Victor's huge potential that has been painstakingly managed outside of the Randal Family, Sylvia is not assured of being in charge of Lilia anyway.

Lilia is still weak after igniting the fire of the soul, and has no ability to control the underground forces all over the human kingdom. In fact, Sylvia never recognized that Victor had brought all the mountain people from all over the country under his command. No matter how cautious he was, he would always show his feet over a long period of time, which would cause strong backlash from the lords everywhere. hard to prevent. The worst thing is that the mountain people's strongholds are scattered all over the country, and the York family is beyond their reach. Once the mountain people have bloody conflicts with local lords, they will only drag Victor into one vortex one after another.

Furthermore, the mountain fortresses now have no income, and the source of wealth is exhausted, which will cause difficulties for the organization to function. Sylvia's first thought was that in order to survive, the mountain people would re-establish contact with the local lord, and the underground armed organization built by Victor would soon be exposed.

In order to deal with the worst situation, Centaur Hills needs the strong support of the lords of various countries, and it must not arouse public outrage from the lords at this juncture.

Sylvia has secretly made up his mind to cut the relationship between the mountain stronghold and Centaur Hills as soon as possible. The scattered mountain strongholds are actually useless, and she can't afford to support these people. With a huge amount of money to maintain them, it is better to concentrate resources to strengthen Centaur Hills' own armed forces.

While His Royal Highness Randal is here, he can do whatever he wants. He is not in Centaur Hills, Sylvia can only deal with the problem in his own way.

She does not have the ability to turn stones into gold, so she must stop the loss in time.

Tracey understands this truth, avoiding Lilia’s topic, and asks: "Does our army need to prepare for war?"

"Prepare for war...Wait for Ant-Man to enter Centaur Hills to build a nest , Everything is late." Sylvia sighed faintly, played with the thin thorn sword in her hand, raised her flawless face, and said with a smile: "I will not go to the Endless Forest, I will be on the west side of the Great Swamp. The king of ants is on the grassland."

"I guess my love is planning for the human army to pass through the lizard swamp. He may have to face-to-face confrontation with Nine-Headed Hydra."
