Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 331 320. Smelting Room

Fortunately, Margarita still knows her responsibilities as the dean of the college.

After the signing meeting, she needs to store the contract in the college's file library, and Tissaya will work with her to apply protective magic to the document.

The two deans before and after this can clearly sense that the current Valyrian steel business will probably be the main source of profit for Aretuza College for many years to come.

After Lan En walked away from Margarita, who was smacking her lips and looking very unwilling, he followed her directions all the way down and reached the lower level of Aretusa.

This place was originally a warehouse-like place, built by hollowing out part of the huge rock on which Arethusa was located.

After Lan En came down, he walked around in the stone corridor with twists and turns, and finally came to a heavy door with an all-steel structure.

"Hey~"

The young man looked at the heavy steel gate and couldn't help but whistle.

Fresh scratches can still be seen on the door frame structure of the heavy door, which are traces of the door being pressed into the rock wall.

This is the convenience of magic. Even in Lan En's home world, if this all-steel door of at least dozens of tons wants to penetrate into the hard rock wall without destroying the original building structure, this It's not easy either.

In Aretusa, no one would even feel the slightest movement during construction.

Lan En lifted up a small amulet and waved it towards the crack of the door.

The heavy door opened on its own with a creaking sound.

Along with the dark red high-temperature metal light, a heat wave radiated from inside the door to the outside world.

Lan En raised his eyes and looked over, just in time to see a tall and thin figure carrying a sword walking towards the door.

"Hi, how are you, Berengar?"

The young man put away the door-opening amulet and raised his hand to greet his old friend.

The long-faced demon hunter now had dark circles under his eyes, but his expression was cheerful and excited.

"Are you overly excited? Do you need me to prescribe you some medicine?"

"Prescribe medication? No, no need. I drank a lot of stimulants to get this equipment on track. Now I have to do a few more tests before it can start working day and night!"

Berengar laughed, took a few steps forward, hugged Lan En, and patted the young man on the back excitedly.

This unusually enthusiastic move left Lan En at a loss.

"No, let go first. Does a promising job and stock equity make you so excited?"

"Excited? I'm not just excited!" Berengar was not disappointed after being pushed away by Lan En, but was still very happy.

His cat eyes were shining.

"I'm young again, Lan! A decent, safe and wealthy job! Do you know how long I've been dreaming about this day? I've even forgotten how many dreams I've had, dreaming of having a well-known family. Approved blacksmith shop. And now, you have helped me realize my dream, even far beyond the limit of my dream!"

Lan En smiled as Berengar expressed his feelings to him. He himself did not like the job of blacksmith, but he respected other people's dreams.

After Berengar's excitement at seeing him calmed down, Lan En continued to speak.

"Then tell me, what have you done since you came to Arethusa? Have you spent all your time here? Indeed, this seems to be a big project."

Lan En walked towards the inside of the room, while Berengar watched the steel door completely closed before following him.

It seems that during this period, he not only acted as a metallurgical technical consultant, but also served as the security guard of this room.

Speaking of this room, the smile on Berengar's lips became even more proud.

"Yeah, it's not an easy job."

The long-faced demon hunter took two quick steps and walked in front of Lan En to guide him.

This is a huge room that looks like a huge smelting chamber.

The rough iron ore was heated by the furnace until it was dark red and shiny, and then processed and shaped by conventional techniques. After passing through a seemingly unnecessary conveyor belt, it was set aside to cool naturally.

Excluding the huge scale, the process is similar to that of a blacksmith in a village smelting iron ore into iron ingots.

Technically, the smelting chamber was horribly crude.

But it is here that the commercial core of Valyrian Steel is located.

"There's nothing else to say. I just told the sorceresses about the technology and experience of ore smelting, and they used magic to complete the previous things. Magic is really convenient, but it's a pity that these sorcerers didn't like it at all before. Dirty blacksmithing work. The key is that conveyor belt."

Berengar took Lan En closer to take a look.

There is a groove on the conveyor belt, and there is a huge crystal ball, which supplies the magic power of the conveyor belt.

"Ms. Margarita and Ms. Tisaya extracted the magic runes from the spell of Valyrian steel. As long as the original ore rolls around on this conveyor belt, it will be cast and the spell is cast. And the magic power The blood, or biological tissue containing magical power, is on top."

Berengar pointed to the top of the conveyor belt, where there was a pipe transporting something, connected to the conveyor belt.

"Those are the monster materials that Aretuza put in the warehouse to eat ashes. The essence of water, the tongue of the tomb witch and so on. Anyway, the casting process is not picky, you can use them all."

"These cooled ores will be sent to ordinary blacksmith shops outside, where there is no core technology, just ordinary forging. After re-forging, it will be a qualified Valyrian steel ingot that can be sold."

"Steel ingot? No one else knows the reforging technology of Valyrian steel."

"Don't worry." Berengar patted his chest and promised, "We will not engage in deceptive business. Buying steel ingots comes with alchemy potion. The formula was prepared by Ms. Tisaya. It is cheap and easy to use. It can be used to replace the normal The recasting mantra of process.”

After saying that, Berengar opened his arms and stood in front of the pile of dark red luminous ore to show it to Lan En.

"We can make a lot of money! Lan En! Woohoo!"

But the young man was not as happy as Berengar. He didn't care much about making big money.

It’s just something I do when I’m short of money.

Moreover, compared to simple things like making money, when he looked at this set of equipment, what shocked him was not the profit contained in it. But the idea

Warlocks began to try assembly lines and automated operations. Use magic.

In the era before this, magic existed only as a luxury that a few people could enjoy or utilize.

People who control supernatural powers will only serve dignitaries and earn profits and power.

And now, they are beginning to understand how effective magic can be in production.

Perhaps this kind of thinking is just for convenience in their minds, but there is no doubt that the seeds that promote the advancement of the times are in it.

As a former history buff, Lan En now had a strange feeling that the era had reached a dividing line, and he was now part of it.

This feeling simply does not last long, and his current energy is mainly focused on the intersection of the celestial sphere.

If something like Dagon or something more powerful pops out of it, then it will be out of date and meaningless to everyone.

"I hope your work here hasn't hindered my order for you, Berengar."

Lan En crossed his arms and tilted his head to look at the old man.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Berengar looked serious at this time.

"Whenever you place an order, I'll put it first. That's my promise, man."
