Chapter 19: Colorless entry: [Far Ahead]!
Yun Shen refreshed entries for all the carcasses, imbuing them with different ones, which caused these carcasses to undergo slight changes.
For instance, the Black Wind Wolf imbued with the [Fatty Meat] entry became much plumper.
And the Black Wind Wolf imbued with the [Muscular] entry became much stronger, yielding more meat.
Yun Shen discovered that the entries refreshed for carcasses were completely different from those for living creatures.
Therefore, he had some new ideas regarding the application of the Code of All Things.
Nearly an hour passed.
The Twelve Beauties of Jin Ling had long since returned, and Teacher Jiang Lan had made several trips, transporting all the ore produced by the iron mine resource point back.
At this point, the problem of insufficient territory area became prominent.
Before the territory reached level 11, the territory area was fixed at only one thousand square meters.
For many new lords, this territory area was actually already completely sufficient, and even had plenty to spare.
But for Yun Shen, it was completely insufficient.
Consequently, many resources were now being moved to the area surrounding the territory.
With two defensive towers automatically keeping watch, Yun Shen wasn't too worried about these materials being ruined by wild monsters.
Ordinary wild monsters couldn't get close; coming here was just serving themselves up. Stronger wild monsters would naturally be handled by the Twelve Beauties of Jin Ling, and at that time, he could harvest a wave of loot.
Watching the stone in the territory pile up, Yun Shen took out the [Smelting Plant] blueprint and silently recited: "Build!"
[You consume Wood (Ordinary) ×100, Stone (Ordinary) ×500, 300 Source Crystals to build Smelting Plant (Excellent).]
[Countdown: 5:59:59.] (Consume 300 Source Crystals to complete instantly)
"Instant finish!"
Yun Shen was rarely this lavish.
[You consume 300 Source Crystals to accelerate construction; Smelting Plant (Excellent) construction complete.]
[Building]: Smelting Plant
[Type]: Factory
[Quality]: Green Excellent
[Function]: Smelt Ore (Green)
[Entry]: None (0/1)
"Refresh!"
Looking at the three light orbs emerging from the Smelting Plant, Yun Shen fell into deep thought.
Not for any other reason, but because one of the light orbs inside was colorless and transparent.
Perhaps it shouldn't be called a light orb, because it didn't glow at all; it looked just like a bubble blown by a child.
[Dilapidated] (Gray): Becomes dilapidated; building quality drops to White Ordinary.
[Brand New Equipment] (Blue): Replaces smelting equipment; building quality rises to Blue Rare.
[Far Ahead] (Colorless): Possesses capabilities leading existing quality; building quality remains unchanged. (Special entry, each unit can only be imbued with one.)
"Far Ahead? What the hell is that? You're not a smartphone manufacturer."
Yun Shen was stunned for a moment. After carefully understanding the meaning of the entry information, he decided to test this special entry to see the power of [Far Ahead].
"Imbue!"
Yun Shen waited for a while, but the Smelting Plant didn't change at all.
Previously, when imbuing entries, even white entries would give off a white light as a gesture. Was this [Far Ahead] really so plain and unadorned?
So Yun Shen tried opening the Smelting Plant's information again. After reading it, he blurted out, "Holy crap."
[Building]: Smelting Plant
[Type]: Factory
[Quality]: Green Excellent
[Function]: Smelt Ore (Blue)
[Entry]: Far Ahead (Colorless) (1/1)
The function of smelting ore had actually been upgraded to Blue Rare!
The building quality remained unchanged, but the actual capability was one grade higher than a Smelting Plant of the same quality!
Good grief, there was no movement at all just now, and it ended up secretly developing and upgrading, right?
In Yun Shen’s understanding, a Smelting Plant’s quality was linked to its capability; a certain quality corresponded to a certain capability.
For instance, an excellent-quality Smelting Plant could only refine excellent-quality ore essence.
"Now that the building quality is still only Green Excellent, it can already refine Blue Rare ore essence. If I upgrade the Smelting Plant's quality to Blue Rare in the future, could it refine Purple Superior ore essence?"
Thinking of this, Yun Shen’s eyes lit up. Raising the building's capability ceiling—this entry was too strong!
"Let's start refining. Girls, come and lend a hand."
Today, Yun Shen had accumulated a large pile of different types of ore and was anxious to smelt them to reduce their volume; otherwise, they took up too much space.
The Smelting Plant’s operation was automated, but it required someone to send the ore inside.
So Yun Shen called for the Twelve Beauties of Jin Ling; otherwise, with his physique attribute, he wouldn't be able to move so much ore.
Gradually, the Twelve Beauties of Jin Ling sent all the ore of rare quality and below into the Smelting Plant.
The Smelting Plant would automatically refine and categorize them. Next, he only needed to consume Source Crystals and time to harvest the refined materials.
Afterward, Yun Shen ignored the Smelting Plant; he didn't need it for now anyway.
Yun Shen found Lin Lin Daiyu, took out the skill book, and said, "Miss Lin, this skill book is suitable for someone with high physique. I'll leave it to you." ===== CHAPTER 36 =====
"Many thanks, my lord!"
Lin Lin Daiyu gratefully took the skill book and immediately chose to learn it.
The other Twelve Beauties of Jin Ling looked on with envy, but in terms of physique attribute alone, it was impossible for anyone present to be higher than Lin Lin Daiyu.
Yun Shen opened the trading house and saw some useless loot that the new lords in the village had harvested today.
He quickly took a fancy to some items like seasonings.
For new lords, the desire for food was not important; they were more willing to trade these things for resources that helped development, even if it was just Source Crystals.
Yun Shen was now considered wealthy and bought quite a few items, such as bed sheets and blankets. Although this type of finished loot was rare, its utility was relatively limited.
Just like the bear-skin blanket that dropped when Teacher Jiang Lan killed the Earth Savage Bear, these were all loot dropped by other lords while grinding monsters today. Some people felt they were useless and listed them on the trading house.
Yun Shen thought for a moment and opened the chat channel.
Yun Shen: "Selling ordinary wood and stone at a low price! Everyone can upgrade their territory faster after buying! Also, paying a high price for a warehouse blueprint! [Photo]"
The angle of this photo was specially chosen by Yun Shen; he didn't capture other content inside the territory.
When refreshing entries, it occasionally happened that even after imbuing an entry, the quality didn't increase.
A large batch of such resources would definitely be harvested tomorrow; keeping them was useless, and throwing them away was a pity. Selling them was a good choice.
Besides, if he didn't build the warehouse, Yun Shen felt that there would really be no place to put resources in the future.
After all, the monster tide was coming tomorrow. If there were too many resources placed inside and outside the territory then, it might affect the battle.
This was also one of the reasons why he was dumping ordinary wood and stone at a low price; they really took up too much space.
"Holy crap! Big Brother Yun Shen, you must have gone specifically to collect resources today, right? Why so many?"
"Big Brother, sell me some! This kid is really pitiful, I beg you!"
"I only went to grind Soul Crystals today; I haven't even started on stone and wood. Big Brother, how do you plan to sell these?"
"With so much stone and wood, it should be over two hundred units, right? Big Brother, is your unit type a logistics class that excels at gathering resources?"
Xu Xu Xiaojiang: "Name a price. I want fifty units of wood and fifty units of stone!" ===== CHAPTER 37 =====
