September 21.
Nine days have passed since Levis's wedding.
After extracting all the fire dragon magic on Black Horse Island, Liszt returned to Flower Town by boat, ready to live a leisurely life in Flower Town.
It was more to prepare for the upcoming expansion order – shortly after the Count's birthday, he went to the palace to attend a meeting of the Grand Duke's followers to formally discuss this year's expansion order.
The pace of war was approaching.
Liszt, who had decided to go to the battlefield for the second time, was not nervous, only excited. Excited for the upcoming military exploits, excited for setting foot in a new country, and excited for the plundering of population and resources. It was hard to imagine that the once peace-loving self would become a part of the desire for war.
It was probably because he was afraid of poverty.
Shortly after returning to Flower Town, a Knight of Tulip Castle galloped over and delivered a package. The package was sent from Red Crab Island and contained several piano scores – Meopal gave Liszt the piano scores he had treasured for many years, as well as his notes on playing the piano.
When he got the piano score.
The smoke mission also changed immediately.
"The mission has changed."
As expected, after receiving the reward in advance, the smoke mission automatically changed.
The new Serpentines' content quickly condensed: "Mission: Brick Factory's craftsman Artest revealed a clue about the Quartz Mine, allowing you to see the light of making glass. Please figure out how to make glass from the Quartz Mine and make an ordinary glass product. Reward: Sinkhole Collapse. "
"Sinkhole Collapse?"
"What reward is this?"
Liszt looked at the smoke Serpentines reward content and was puzzled. It seemed that a corner of the territory was about to collapse, revealing a sinkhole.
Speaking of sinkholes.
There were many sinkholes on Earth, and they often seemed very mysterious. Liszt had seen a documentary about the formation of sinkholes, which was generally related to underground rivers. In karst areas, underground rivers constantly eroded the surface to form karst caves, and after the roof collapsed many times, sinkholes were formed.
"Flower Town seems to have nothing to do with karst landforms, and Black Horse Island has nothing to do with karst landforms …" Liszt's geographical knowledge was not good. He only knew that karst landforms were also called karst landforms, which were linked to karst caves, underground rivers, stalactites, and sinkholes.
However, these landforms are not reflected in Coral Island and Black Horse Island.
Therefore, he couldn't figure out how this sinkhole would appear in his territory, so he could only wait. Fortunately, they didn't have to wait too long. The Bramble Thorn Caravan had already brought back a large number of yellow-white stones from the outside. These stones came from Viscount Jonas's territory, Snake Spear City.
There was a short hill around Snake Spear City, which was made of such stones.
Whether it was a quartz mine or not, he would know once he tested it.
Liszt happened to be idle, so he went to Black Horse Island again and observed the craftsmen of the brick factory burning these stones in the Fire Dragon Brick Factory. In the vision of the Magic Eyes, the small magical fire dragon was constantly scouring the stone, and soon the impurities in the stone were burned away.
Then, the rest of it began to soften and melt, finally forming a pool of sunlight-like liquid.
It was not accurate to call it a liquid. It could only be regarded as a soft semi-liquid, like a piece of plasticine.
"When the temperature is not high, this kind of stone will only soften, then melt, and finally become a real liquid." Artest explained, "However, liquid is not suitable for blowing glass products, so we all start blowing when it becomes soft."
They had already used volcanic glass and worked hard on the glass-blowing process.
Seeing that the stone was melted into a ball of fire, they immediately picked out the semi-liquid, inserted it into the iron pipe, and began to blow. They even used special heat-resistant leather gloves to knead the fire-filled glass solution – in a world full of magic, many materials have special properties.
The gloves that Liszt issued to the craftsmen were made of the skin of a beast in World of Warcraft, which could withstand hundreds of degrees of heat.
It was originally used to prevent burns when burning bricks, but now it was used to make glass.
As the craftsmen kneaded and kneaded, the ball of fire, which was originally blown like a ball, gradually turned into a cylindrical jar. Using the leather pouch to continuously blow air to cool down the temperature, a glass jar with some colorful patterns was soon born. It wasn't pure enough, but it was very clear.
"Sure enough, this ore is a quartz mine, which can be made into glass … The quality is not very high, and the process and raw materials still need to be improved."
The thickness of the glass jar was uneven, the shape was asymmetrical, the color was very messy, and even its hardness could not be guaranteed.
Liszt only played with it for a while, but he accidentally broke the glass jar, probably because of the uneven distribution of stress during cooling.
In any case.
The glass was born in his hands, and its exquisite and clear beauty was bound to set off a trend in this world, bringing a steady stream of wealth to the territory – but before selling glass products, the process had to be improved, and the workers had to be trained in large quantities.
The process of making a finished glass was very complicated, and relying on the craftsmen of the Fire Dragon Brick Factory was seriously insufficient.
Just as he was about to blow a decent glass himself, a retainer Knight hurriedly came to report: "Sir, there was an accident in the Burial Land. When the serfs were piling up volcanic glass ore, the ground in the middle of the five big bones suddenly collapsed, revealing a huge hole. Four serfs have fallen into the hole. "
"Hole?"
Liszt had to give up the idea of blowing the glass himself and went to the Burial Land. He already understood that this was the reward of the smoke mission – Sinkhole Collapse.
On the way, he summoned the smoke mission: "Mission completed. Reward: Sinkhole Collapse."
Then, a new mission was issued.
"Mission: Sinkhole Collapse exposed the roots of the five recovered dragon bones. It seems that something is brewing. As a member of the Magic Goat Family, Virginia Truth may hold the clues you need. Reward: A Fire Seed made of magic. "
"Sinkhole Collapse exposed the roots of the five dragon bones. It seems that this is another part of the chain mission related to the Fire Dragon. Virginia Truth … I will ask her later. But what was the reward? A Fire Seed made of Mana? What does it mean, or something? "
While thinking.
He had arrived at the Burial Land.
At this time, many people surrounded the five Fire Dragon bones, pointing at them. Seeing the arrival of Liszt, the official in charge of the work at the scene immediately dispersed the serfs and greeted Liszt.
"What's going on, what's under the hole? Have the serfs been rescued? "Liszt asked as he walked.
"Sir, four serfs fell down, three of them died, and only Sean is still alive. But his leg is broken, and he is lying in a pile of stones under the hole. We are looking for ropes to rescue him. As for what is down there, it is not clear. The hole is very dark. "
Soon.
Walking to the edge of the sinkhole Collapse, Liszt looked carefully. The hole was not big, at most a hundred square meters circular.
