The importance of Mounts to players was self-evident.
Even A Melancholy Smile and Cream Cocoa understood the importance of Mounts, not to mention a Bronze Mount. Currently, God's Domain's elite and expert players were inching closer to Level 40.
How could Common Mounts possibly satisfy God's Domain's experts? However, obtaining a Bronze Mount was easier said than done. Even large Guilds only had a few Bronze Mounts. Moreover, these Mounts were all given to the upper echelons of their Guilds.
If they could produce a Bronze Mount, it would be dozens of times more popular than the Strengthening Device.
However, the Engineering Cart was extremely difficult to produce.
At the very least, they needed an Advanced Engineer, an Advanced Forger, and an Advanced Alchemist. Even if they used various supporting tools, they'd be fortunate to have a 30% success rate.
In addition, producing the Engineering Cart was an extremely tedious process. It took a considerable amount of time to produce a single Engineering Cart. They'd be lucky if they could produce one Engineering Cart per day.
"Guild Leader, the production of this Engineering Cart is extremely difficult. It also requires a lot of materials. Even if we succeed, the cost will be frighteningly high. Are we really going to disregard the cost?" A Melancholy Smile's eyes twitched as he looked at the list of materials.
The most difficult part of producing the Engineering Cart was the power unit. The power unit alone required 30 Magic Crystals. There were also some alchemy arrays. After calculating the various miscellaneous items, the Engineering Cart required 50 Magic Crystals. There were also some rare materials such as Refined Steel Ingots. Refined Steel Ingots could only be obtained from mining Red iron ores. Refined Steel Ingots had to be refined with other materials to produce the Refined Steel Ingots.
On the market, one Refined Steel Ingot sold for around 30 Silver. It could practically rival a piece of Level 30 Bronze Equipment. Unfortunately, there were far fewer Refined Steel Ingots than Bronze Equipment.
Meanwhile, the Engineering Cart required 20 Refined Steel Ingots. In other words, it cost 6 Gold!
Based on the market price, producing a Bronze Engineering Cart cost around 25 Gold. Even if the Guild could obtain most of the materials, the cost would still be around 20 Gold …
If they followed the Engineering Cart's current success rate, the actual production cost would be around 100 Gold or even 160 Gold. After all, the success rate wasn't high. Meanwhile, a Bronze Mount only sold for around 300 Gold on the market. It wasn't nearly as profitable as the Strengthening Device. The only advantage the Engineering Cart had was that as long as it was on the market, people would definitely buy it.
If they wanted to save costs, they would need a master engineer.
Although there was only a one-rank difference between an Advanced Engineer and a Master Engineer, an Advanced Engineer's production success rate would increase by more than 30%. In addition, the Advanced Engineer's production success rate would increase by more than 60%. Moreover, the production cost would be reduced to less than 40 Gold.
"How many Senior Engineers do we have now?" Shifeng also understood that the production costs would be very high. However, they had already signed a contract with the Secret Pavilion. Even if they had to spend money, they had to produce them. Practice made perfect. Moreover, the production of the Construction Mechanical Carriages allowed Lifestyle classes to quickly increase their Proficiency.
A Melancholy Smile said, "There are only two people at the moment. The other three are not far from becoming senior engineers."
"Two people?" Shifeng frowned. According to the current production speed, it would be dangerous to produce ten construction vehicles in five days. "Then let them start now. I'll also help to produce some of the necessary parts."
"I'll contact them right away." A Melancholy Smile was stunned when he heard that Shifeng would be personally leading the team. Hurriedly, he said, "If they know that the Guild Leader is leading the team, they'll probably die of excitement."
In the Starmoon Kingdom, everyone referred to Hei Yan as the Sword King. As for Hei Yan's previous identity, most likely, everyone had long since forgotten about it.
Although ordinary players might not remember, to Lifestyle players, the title of Starmoon Kingdom's number one forger was very clear.
Moreover, A Melancholy Smile was also very clear about one thing — the first person to become an Advanced Forger was none other than Shifeng.
"Guild Leader, two people have suddenly arrived at the Guild Residence. Both of them are very high-leveled, both Level 40. Moreover, both of them are riding high-ranked Mounts. They say that they have something important to discuss with you," Shiuse Qiangwei suddenly contacted Shi Feng.
"Both of them are riding high-ranked Mounts?" Shifeng was slightly surprised. At this stage of the game, reaching Level 40 was already difficult, not to mention obtaining high-ranked Mounts. "Do you know who they are?"
"I've never seen them before. Moreover, they don't have any Guild Emblems on them. It's possible that they aren't wearing any." Shiuse Qiangwei shook her head. She had met all of God's Domain's mainstream experts in the past. However, she had no recollection of these two people. She had even sent people to investigate them, yet they had not been able to find any information about them.
"This is interesting. Alright, I'll head over right away." Shifeng could not help his curiosity. He then disconnected the call and rode his Demonic Flame Tiger to meet the two people.
…
Outside the entrance of the Ling YI Society's Residence: Due to Ling Yi's announcement of a large-scale recruitment, many players had rushed to apply. However, a large empty space stood before the entrance. Only two people stood quietly, each of them accompanied by two massive Mounts. Nobody dared to approach these two people.
"Who are these two people? They're so strong! "
"By the looks of it, they aren't here to cause trouble, right?"
The players who had come to apply began to speculate when they saw the Berserker, Bloodsucker, and the Assassin, Kirin. Every one of them was shocked by their equipment and auras.
"The advanced carriage is so slow! I wonder when Mask and the others will arrive? " The Assassin, Kirin, looked at the time. He completely ignored the surrounding players as if they were nothing more than scenery, unworthy of his attention.
Just as Kirin was speaking, an advanced carriage arrived at the entrance of the street.
A moment later, the advanced carriage stopped before the entrance of Ling Yi's Residence. Four people then disembarked from the carriage.
"Mysterious-Iron Mounts sure are good. Once I reach Level 40, I'll definitely get my hands on one."
"Mask, don't even think about getting your hands on a Mysterious-Iron Mount. That's not a cabbage you can find anywhere. Even those with titles would have a hard time obtaining one, not to mention you, who don't have one yet."
Although the four people who had disembarked from the carriage were chatting and laughing, the surrounding players were similarly stupefied. All four of them were Level 39. Although the pressure these four gave off was not as intense as the previous two, when they stood together, they felt like four ferocious beasts. Just a glance from them was enough to send chills down one's spine.
"So, this is Ling Yi's Residence? It's quite large, but it's a little shabby. The standards of the Guild members coming and going are also mediocre, "Masked Angel commented as he swept a glance at Ling Yi's Residence.
The others did not refute Masked Angel's words. Instead, they agreed with his assessment.
However, the Ling Yi members who came and went from the entrance were somewhat displeased.
The Ling Yi Society's Residence had cost a lot of Coins to construct. Although it was not one of the best in the entire Starmoon Kingdom, it was, at the very least, one of the best. Yet, in the eyes of these people, it was like a slum.
Originally, Ling Yi's members had intended to charge forward and argue with these people. However, when they saw a black shadow appear at the entrance, they immediately fell silent. Even the players queuing in line gave the black shadow a look of admiration.
Although the snow-white wolf and pitch-black warhorse before the entrance were very attractive, compared to the Demonic Flame Tiger, which had appeared out of nowhere and moved as fast as lightning, the two were on completely different levels. Before the Demonic Flame Tiger, the wolf and warhorse were practically babies …
