When Wen Wenhai and the others heard Zhao Hai's voice, they couldn't help but stare. Then they turned their heads to look at Zhao Hai. Upon seeing Zhao Hai, Wen Wenhai and the others immediately greeted him with excitement.
Wen Wenhai said from afar, "Boss, you're finally back. Did you know that if you didn't come back, we would have gone to look for you. Zheng Xiang and the others would have slit their throats."
Zheng Xiang was the leader of the group that was left behind by Wen Wenhai to help Zhao Hai manage the cave. The other 20 people were under Zheng Xiang's command.
When Zhao Hai heard Wen Wenhai, he couldn't help but stare. Then he looked at the excited Zheng Xiang and smiled faintly. Then he patted Zheng Xiang's shoulder and said, "Alright, don't be so excited. It was my fault this time. Next time when I'm out for a long time, I'll definitely tell you. Alright, let's go in. Not bad, you're all out. But wouldn't the cave be darker? Moreover, it's also hotter. "
Wen Wenhai smiled and said, "Boss, you can rest assured. In the past few days, we've been looking around the cave. Finally, we found a passage behind the cave. Behind the cave is a volcanic crater, but there's no fire there. Instead, it's full of plants. Therefore, even if we close the door, the situation inside the cave wouldn't be affected." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "That's right, we've been looking around for a while now.
When Zhao Hai heard Wen Wenhai, he stared. Then he happily said, "So there's such a place. Did you check the volcanic crater? What's the situation there? Are there any animals? "
Wen Wenhai shook his head and said, "No, there are a lot of plants there. However, I didn't see any animals. As long as the door is open during the day, there's enough light. If we close the door at night, it'll be safer."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, that's good. Let's go in. When did you come back?" Then he walked towards the cave.
Wen Wenhai quickly said, "We've already been back for three days. Head, we've already prepared everything in the cave. We're just waiting for you to come back. Right, we brought the cauldron with us when we went back this time."
In fact, even without Wen Wenhai's explanation, Zhao Hai already knew what was going on inside the cave. He had already used his spiritual force to check the situation inside the cave, so he wasn't surprised.
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "It's good that we moved here. There's Earth Fire here, making it easier to refine pills. Let's rest today. Tomorrow, we'll head out. Come with me to a place and gather some things. Then I'll make a transmission formation."
When Wen Wenhai heard Zhao Hai, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Boss, you found an ore? That's great. Good, good. Right, we've prepared a room for you. Come and take a look. " After he said that, he led Zhao Hai into the cave. Before long, Zhao Hai arrived in front of an independent cave. Zhao Hai knew about this cave. It wasn't a big cave, but it was an independent existence. However, this cave had a special feature. It was the only cave in the entire cave that had a water source and Earth Fire. He didn't think that Wen Wenhai would actually make this cave into his room.
When Zhao Hai entered the cave, he couldn't help but stare. This was because this cave was much bigger than what he knew. Moreover, it had been divided into several rooms. One was for him to rest while the other was for his study. Although the area wasn't big, it can be seen that Wen Wenhai and the others had put a lot of thought into it.
Zhao Hai turned to look at Wen Wenhai and the others. Then he smiled and said, "You guys, it's useless. But I'll still accept this room. Right, did you get something to eat? In the past few days, I've been eating wild fruits and dry rations. I want to eat something hot. "
Naturally, Wen Wenhai and the others immediately went to prepare. After eating, Zhao Hai returned to his room to rest. Wen Wenhai also knew that they would be busy in the following days, so he needed to rest well.
The next morning, after everyone woke up, they washed up and ate something. Then they prepared to go out with Zhao Hai. However, Zhao Hai looked at everyone and thought for a moment. Then he said, "Everyone, make a basket. We're going to carry ores today."
When Wen Wenhai and the others heard Zhao, they were surprised for a moment, but they immediately complied and went to prepare. It must be said that Wen Wenhai and the others didn't know how to carry baskets before, but now it was different. Wen Wenhai and the others thought that they were experts, so they simply disdained to do such things. But now, they didn't think so. In their opinion, if a person like Zhao was willing to do such a job, then there was nothing they couldn't do.
Moreover, Wen Wenhai and the others also discovered that their quality of life had indeed changed after making those things themselves. Therefore, they no longer opposed to doing things that they thought were lowly in the past. Therefore, making things like carrying baskets wasn't a big deal for them.
In any case, their baskets didn't need to be too exquisite. As long as they were sturdy and usable, it was fine. Before long, Wen Wenhai and the others finished making baskets. Zhao Hai also made one. Then Zhao Hai led everyone to leave.
When Zhao Hai led Wen Wenhai and the others to the Iron Forest, Wen Wenhai and the others were shocked. They had heard about the situation in the Iron Forest. Therefore, when Zhao Hai led them to the forest, they thought that they had arrived at another Iron Forest.
However, when Zhao Hai told them to pick the fruits, Wen Wenhai and the others didn't say anything. When they started picking the fruits, they were startled. This was because the fruits were too heavy. They were clearly iron lumps.
Before long, each of them had a basket full of fruits. Zhao Hai led everyone back to the cave and then continued to pick. Today, Zhao Hai and the others had been picking the fruits in the Iron Forest. At this time, there were already a lot of Iron Fruits in the cave.
Zhao Hai calculated that these Iron Fruits were enough. Tomorrow, they would be able to pick the Copper Fruits, Silver Fruits, and Gold Fruits. After picking all of these fruits, they would be able to officially start refining.
However, today, Zhao Hai also understood the importance of the Iron Forest. Although they had been picking for the entire day, they had only picked a few dozen Iron Fruits. They didn't even touch the Iron Fruits on the other trees. And in the Iron Forest, Zhao Hai didn't calculate how many Iron Trees there were. However, he knew that it wouldn't be less than ten thousand. This number was truly astonishing.
In the next few days, Zhao Hai led Wen Wenhai and the others to other places to pick more Iron Fruits. Wen Wenhai and the others now understood that not only were there Iron Ores buried underground, there were also Iron Ores that grew on trees.
After four days of picking, Zhao Hai calculated that the amount of Iron Ores they had was enough for several hundred people to use. Zhao Hai didn't prepare to pick more Iron Fruits, instead, he prepared to start refining.
However, during this time, Zhao Hai and the others also received some good news. The good news was that some of the people who weren't at the Sky Dance Realm had already reached the Sky Dance Realm. As for the rest, although they haven't reached the Sky Dance Realm, they were still a step away. It wouldn't take long before they reach the Sky Dance Realm.
For Zhao Hai and the others, this was good news. In a place like the Secret Realm, if you haven't reached the Sky Dance Realm, then you wouldn't be able to guarantee your own safety. Therefore, Zhao Hai and the others were very happy with the progress of these people.
Now that they had Iron Ores and Fire, the only thing left to do was to start refining. Zhao Hai was now preparing to refine artifacts. The first thing he wanted to refine was the Transmission Formation.
For them, the Transmission Formation was very important. With the Transmission Formation, they would be able to contact the 12th stronghold at any time. Moreover, if something happened to the 12th stronghold, then they would be able to immediately go back. This was very important for them.
Wen Wenhai and the others also had their own things to do. What they were doing was the same as what they did in the stronghold. They were picking herbs, digging vegetables, and hunting. Moreover, they also had several people who were responsible for refining medicine. After all, Zhao Hai would need to refine artifacts in the future, so he wouldn't have much time to refine pills.
Zhao Hai just gave them their tasks and didn't care about them anymore. He directly went to the place that he used as his refining room. There were too many things that Zhao Hai needed to prepare.
The first thing that Zhao Hai prepared was a regulator. This regulator was used to adjust the intensity of the Earth Fire. Whether it was refining artifacts or refining pills, the intensity of the fire was very important. It didn't mean that a single flame was good. In fact, a single flame wouldn't be able to refine anything good. Therefore, what Zhao Hai needed right now was a regulator.
The regulator wasn't difficult to make. Zhao Hai used three days to make a lot of them. Every Earth Fire in the cave was equipped with a regulator. There were 27 Earth Fire vents in the cave. Zhao Hai made 27 regulators.
These regulators were made of alloy, but the content of gold was relatively high. However, after the regulators were made, they were very easy to use. It made refining pills a lot easier.
After the regulators were made, Zhao Hai made another thing, which was an anvil and hammer. These were used to forge iron. Zhao Hai didn't use the refining methods of cultivators because Wen Wenhai and the others hadn't seen it. Moreover, they couldn't learn it.
Zhao Hai wanted to refine artifacts, but he couldn't do it all the time. Therefore, he wanted to pass down his refining methods. The refining methods of cultivators had a lot to do with spiritual force. On the other hand, Wen Wenhai and the others' spiritual force cultivation was a blank. Because of this, even if Zhao Hai taught them the refining methods of cultivators, they wouldn't be able to learn it. Now, Zhao Hai could only teach them the most basic forging methods.
Using spiritual force to refine artifacts was much easier and more refined than using the forging methods. However, Wen Wenhai and the others couldn't learn it. Therefore, they could only use the forging method. This was because the forging method was relatively simple.
The forging method was a very primitive refining method. However, this method could be seen in all aspects. Even if you used spiritual force to refine artifacts, you still couldn't do without the help of the forging method. This was a relatively simple refining method.
Zhao Hai wanted to teach Wen Wenhai and the others how to refine artifacts using the forging method. This way, even if he didn't refine artifacts in the future, as long as someone learned this method, they would still be able to make weapons for them. After all, Zhao Hai was a commander, he wasn't a blacksmith. If he was always in charge of refining artifacts, then it would be a waste.
After making the anvil and hammer, Zhao began to officially start refining. He also selected two people from the hundred people who were interested in refining and taught them how to use the forging method to do so.
This was not a simple matter. The control of the fire, the mastery of the forging technique, and how to make some delicate work were all very important. If there was even the slightest mistake, the refining of the magic tool might fail.
Zhao Hai's main task at this time was to make portable transmission formations. At the very least, everyone in the 12th stronghold must have a portable transmission formation. This way, the communication between the stronghold and the cave wouldn't be a problem.
In the beginning, because Zhao Hai had to make the transmission formations while teaching the others how to forge, he didn't do it very carefully. Moreover, he also made the others take notes. After the others grasped some of the basics, Zhao Hai began to let them try to make it. Because this portable transmission formation only needed Iron Essence, Zhao Hai wasn't afraid that they would ruin the formation. If they did, then they could just refine it. This was the best learning material for them.
However, these people were just beginning to learn, so they still had a lot of shortcomings. But after failing a dozen times, they were still able to make a qualified transmission formation. This made them very excited, and their motivation to learn became even stronger. On the other hand, Zhao Hai used ten days to make 200 transmission formations.
After Zhao Hai finished making the transmission formations, Zhao Hai immediately called Wen Wenhai and the others back. Wen Wenhai and the others had been busy with their own matters these days. In addition to gathering herbs, digging vegetables, and hunting, their main purpose was to investigate the surrounding area. Because of this, they worked very hard these days. However, their results were very good. They already understood the situation around the cave, and they also found some relatively dangerous places.
After Zhao Hai called them back to the cave, he gave each of them two transmission formations. Zhao Hai pointed at the transmission formation and said, "This is a portable transmission formation. I think everyone is familiar with it. Now, we'll use it to return to the 12th stronghold. When we arrive, give the other transmission formation to those who don't have one. Alright, we'll go back today."
Everyone nodded excitedly. Although the cave's environment was good, for Wen Wenhai and the others, the stronghold was their home. Naturally, they were happy to be able to use the transmission formation to go back.
