Chapter 73: Wooden dummy, medicine jar, grinding stone

Xia Hong knew very well what these Great Stone people were thinking.

The camp was destroyed, and these remaining people came to the Does Does Da Xia camp, although temporarily safe.

But before getting a clear answer from him, the leader, these Great Stone people were all nameless and without status. Staying here could only be considered living under someone else's roof, and they could be expelled at any time.

Therefore, they were extremely lacking in a sense of security in their hearts.

Even after learning that the Wood Puppet Ghost was killed and the great revenge was avenged, they didn't dare to wantonly celebrate and discuss like the people of the Does Does Da Xia camp.

In the Frozen Abyss World, a sense of security is an extremely precious and lacking thing.

Xia Hong's words just now undoubtedly gave them a great sense of security.

"Rest assured, since I decided to take you in, from now on you are all part of Does Does Da Xia. I will treat you equally!"

Watching Xia Hong's back as he left after speaking, the emotion on Shi Qing's face remained intense. He took a deep breath, looked around the circle of people, and said sternly:

"I am now a useless person, and our hundred-plus people don't even have a single Woodcutting Realm. To put it bluntly, we are a group of burdens. The leader is willing to take us in; such great kindness and virtue, even if we die nine times, it is difficult to repay.

From now on, Does Does Da Xia is our home, and Xia Hong is our only leader. Even if the leader tells us to die, we cannot frown. Do you all understand?"

Everyone looked up, looking at Xia Hong, who had already walked to the distance, their expressions solemn, nodding their heads seriously.

Giving the Great Stone camp crowd a reassurance, Xia Hong walked directly to the side of the iron smelting furnace, looking at the coal and iron poured on the ground, a look of excitement immediately appeared on his face.

【Camp: Does Does Da Xia (Level 0)】

【Lord: Xia Hong】

【Territory population: 341】

【Resources: Wood 1240, Coal 254, Iron 402, Silver 0, Gold 0】

【Unlocked Building 1: Iron Smelting Furnace (Level 2)】

【Unopened Building 8: Wooden Dummy, Green Bamboo Fence, Marking Stone, Medicine Jar, Yellow Land, Grinding Stone, Small Wooden Table, Coarse Iron Chain】

In the current camp, wood had completely overflowed. Unless Xia Hong wanted to crazily manufacture Condensing Fire Oil and small torches, wood would never be used up no matter how it was used for normal heating.

The coal and iron gifted by Luo Ming, Xia Hong couldn't refuse because he realized that wanting to gather resources to open buildings in a short time by himself was absolutely impossible.

Coal mines were easy to find, but currently, Does Does Da Xia only had one Earth-Digging Realm. If he mined alone, he could mine at most two hundred jin a day, not to mention the harder-to-find iron mines and subsequent mining. So accepting Luo Ming's gift was undoubtedly the fastest choice to open other buildings.

Except for the Small Wooden Table and Coarse Iron Chain, the other six unlocked buildings only required wood, coal, and iron, and the cost to open them wasn't much; subsequent upgrades were the big part.

Wooden Dummy: Wood 100, Iron 20

Medicine Jar: Coal 50, Iron 40

Grinding Stone: Coal 60, Iron 30

Marking Stone: Coal 150, Iron 90

Green Bamboo Fence: Per meter/Wood 20, Iron 5, can be upgraded after exchanging for ten thousand meters

Yellow Land: Per square meter/Wood 200, Coal 20, can be upgraded after exchanging for ten thousand square meters

Xia Hong looked through the building unlocking conditions and immediately fell into thought.

Although he didn't know the specific functions of these buildings, he could probably guess them from their names.

Green Bamboo Fence should be defensive camp supplies, Yellow Land should be used for planting crops. These two, although useful, were too expensive and not applicable to the current camp, so he didn't consider them.

Wooden Dummy should be for martial arts practice, Medicine Jar for medical treatment, Grinding Stone should be for casting, Marking Stone, as the name suggests, should be an item used for marking territory.

These four, Xia Hong wanted to build them all in one breath, but resources were limited, so after thinking about it, he chose to give up on the Marking Stone first.

Wooden Dummy, Medicine Jar, Grinding Stone.

Xia Hong placed his hands on the coal stones and iron stones on the ground, his mind moved slightly, and he pointed out the Wooden Dummy first.

A flash of fluorescent light passed, and a two-meter-high, single-legged wooden man with a hollow abdomen immediately appeared beside the iron smelting furnace.

Although the wooden man stood with only one leg, its facial features were complete, and its face even carried a hint of a smile.

Its thick, sturdy arms hung naturally, its muscles were knotted, and all its joints were connected by iron rivets, lifelike.

If it weren't for the skin color and that single leg, I'm afraid no one could tell this was a fake wooden man.

Wooden Dummy (Level 1): Cultivation tool, activate by throwing in coal stones, can significantly increase cultivation speed and increase martial arts insight.

Special Function 1: Can record cold beast species through essence blood, transform into any cold beast, and exert the strength of the adult body of that cold beast.

Special Function 2: Activate within the radiation range of the iron smelting furnace, can follow instructions and fight autonomously.

Consumption: Per hour/Coal 5

Upgrade Condition: 3000 Wood, 6000 Iron

This Wooden Dummy is too strong!

After reading the description of the Wooden Dummy, Xia Hong couldn't help but click his tongue in his heart, and his face was even more excited.

Increase cultivation speed; increase martial arts insight; can also transform into various cold beasts to be used as sparring partners; and, activate within the radiation range of the iron smelting furnace, can follow instructions and fight autonomously.

These four functions, no matter which one, were simply heaven-defying.

Xia Hong took a deep breath and continued to click on the second building, the Grinding Stone.

As the coal and iron on the ground disappeared a bit more, beside the Wooden Dummy, another fluorescent light appeared. The fluorescent light rotated in the air for a while before disappearing, leaving behind a rectangular black stone with a diameter of over half a meter.

Grinding Stone (Level 1): Can be molded into any mold, used for creating various metal tools, can cast ten-forged to thousand-forged weapons.

Special Function: Absorb enough cold beast blood, can forge weapons with beast-suppressing attributes.

Upgrade Condition: 5000 Coal, 10000 Iron

Another good treasure!

Xia Hong's face was full of joy, and he followed by pointing out the Medicine Jar.

Fluorescent light appeared, and beside the Grinding Stone, a green medicine jar with a diameter of half a meter appeared. The outside of the medicine jar was attached with strange patterns, and when it appeared, it was accompanied by a refreshing exotic fragrance.

Medicine Jar (Level 1): Medicine refining tool, throw in any item, can identify item attributes, items with medicinal properties will be automatically recorded.

Special Function: Can automatically generate formulas according to recorded species, throw in materials according to the formula, add water and boil, and it can become medicine.

Consumption: Per hour of boiling/Coal 20, identification function, consumes coal stones depending on the preciousness of the item.

Upgrade Condition: Wood 20000, Coal 20000, Iron 10000, 10 types of generated formulas

Whoosh...

Today's surprises were truly one after another.

Xia Hong was almost unable to catch his breath.

This Medicine Jar, looking at the name so earthy, was actually the one with the greatest effect.

Identify item attributes, automatically generate formulas, and even as long as you add water and boil according to the formula, you can automatically refine medicine.

Medicine!

If it weren't for this Medicine Jar, Xia Hong even doubted whether he could have anything to do with this word in the future.

Xia Hong wasn't clear about other camps, but for a small camp like Does Does Da Xia, where even survival was a problem, there was basically no concept of getting injured and taking medicine.

Getting injured meant resisting hard; if you couldn't resist, you died. No one was an exception.

Now with the Medicine Jar, they didn't even have to spend much thought to use medicine. According to the description of the Medicine Jar, as long as they kept putting items in and letting it keep recording, it would automatically generate various formulas.

The formulas were out, and they didn't even have to spend thought on refining; just add water and boil.

Moreover, medicine for healing could be refined, and medicine for improving strength should also be the same.

Consumption: Per hour of refining/Coal 20, identification consumes different types of resources depending on item attributes.

Upgrade Condition: Wood 20000, Coal 20000, Iron 10000, 10 types of generated formulas

Xia Hong looked at the Medicine Jar. Although his eyes were fiery, seeing its terrifying consumption and subsequent upgrade conditions, he couldn't help but click his tongue repeatedly in his heart.

"Consuming 20 units of coal per hour, and the upgrade conditions are so perverted. It seems even the system knows you are the most precious!"
