Chapter 28: Ironmaking Successful, Home Upgraded
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The sky had already darkened.
Four Heavenly Eye Spiders were on alert around the Rift Valley. Mcgee, the little Spirit Fox, and the Heavenly Eye Spider Queen were busy inside.
Mcgee’s hair had already curled up, and the little Spirit Fox fur had been roasted to the point of it looking like a curly teddy bear!
The three of them were sweating profusely!
However, the harvest was also outstanding!
The hole at the side had already been filled by the molten iron that flowed out of the blast furnace.
Mcgee had no choice but to dig another hole at the side.
This was the last batch of raw iron ore in the blast furnace, and it had also begun to melt.
A red high-temperature molten current could be seen continuously flowing out from a small hole at the side.
Sizzle!
A mist rose from the pit. The molten current cooled down rapidly, and after it cooled down, it was ready-made iron blocks.
As the last drop of iron juice flowed into the pit, today’s ironmaking was temporarily over.
“Tsk tsk! I didn’t expect you to be so smart. This method is indeed good!”
The little Spirit Fox looked at the pit full of iron blocks and kept praising Mcgee.
Mcgee felt a little excited after hearing that!
The main thing was that today’s harvest was indeed very gratifying!
[System Notification: Congratulations, you have obtained iron x 100 through smelting!]
[System Notification: Please keep up the good work, you have already touched the threshold of civilization!]
Mcgee looked at the time, it was almost time to return home.
So he said to the Spider Queen, “Tell the little spiders to seal the entrance of the cave with spider webs. Then, we’ll go back and rest.”
The Spider Queen nodded and went out to help.
Mcgee and little Spirit Fox were the first to go home.
“Spirit Fox, give me a water bomb for a bath!”
Mcgee said to little Spirit Fox. Unfortunately, by this time, his body was emitting a very unpleasant smell of sweat.
It was so bad that he wanted to vomit.
As soon as Mcgee finished speaking, a big water ball exploded on top of his head.
After a very comfortable cold shower, Mcgee took out the home upgrade blueprint.
Home Upgrade Blueprint.
Required Materials: Wood (200/650), Stone (200/351), Iron (50/130).
Today, 100 pieces of wood were consumed, 200 pieces of iron ore were smelted, and 100 pieces of iron were finally obtained.
After successfully gathering all the materials needed to upgrade his home, Mcgee could not wait to see what level 2 home looked like.
“Upgrade!”
[System Notification: Home upgrade begins!]
As soon as Mcgee finished speaking, the area around the wooden house was completely covered by a golden barrier.
Following that, the golden barrier continued to expand and finally covered the Rift Valley as well.
When everything was settled, the barrier disappeared.
Mcgee looked at the brand new two-story wooden house in front of him and finally felt that his hard work had not been in vain.
[System Notification: Congratulations on upgrading your home to level two!]
[System Notification: The reward for upgrading your home has been distributed!]
[System Notification: You have obtained an Advanced Farm Blueprint!]
[System Notification: You have unlocked the Forging Workshop!]
[Advanced Farm Blueprint.]
[Expand the area of the current farm and improve the quality of the current farm!]
[Required Materials: Manure (100/0), Wood (100/350).]
Seeing the requirement of manure, Mcgee felt that he had to go and check on the piglets.
Recently, the piglets were being taken care of by the little spiders. Unfortunately, Mcgee had not gone to check on them for a few days.
Mcgee walked to the pigpen and was shocked!
Do pigs grow so fast?
Or do the Charging Pigs in this world grow faster?
In just a few days, the little piglets, originally about ten kilograms, had grown to more than twenty kilograms!
A thick layer of feces had acc.u.mulated in the pigpen.
However, the little piglets were covered in pig feces and looked very dirty!
Mcgee covered his nose and walked to the side of the pigsty.
[System Notification: You have found pig feces. Do you want to collect it?]
Mcgee hurriedly said, “Collect!”
[System Notification: You have obtained pig feces x 121.]
As the system notification sounded.
The pig feces in the pigsty immediately disappeared.
Mcgee said with some joy, “Fortunately, the pig feces are enough. Otherwise, I would have to go outside and pick up some other beast’s feces.”
Looking at these dirty little pigs, Mcgee said to the little Spirit Fox, “Little Spirit Fox, wash them. Look how dirty they are!”
In the distance of the pigsty, the little Spirit Fox immediately shook her head like a rattle-drum when she heard this.
“My nose is too sensitive. I’m not too fond of such a heavy smell. Master, please spare me!”
Hearing this, Mcgee did not know whether to laugh or cry.
“I’m not asking you to scrub them. Just throw a few water bombs on them!”
Even so, the little Spirit Fox was still very disgusted.
After throwing a few water bombs in a hurry, she slipped away without looking back.
Mickey was also a little helpless about this and could only do business first.
“Farm upgrade!”
[System Notification: Farm upgrade begins!]
The same golden barrier completely covered the farm and then gradually expanded in all directions.
This time, in addition to expanding the area, the quality of the land had to be improved, so the speed was particularly slow.
Mcgee could only let it slowly upgrade first, because the area around the pigsty was too smelly, so Mcgee ran back to the wooden house.
After the upgrade, the walls of the wooden house also became much thicker.
The inside of the house expanded by about ten square meters.
There were two more windows, and a small attic had also been added to it.
Mcgee climbed up to the attic. There were only simple railings around the attic, so the ventilation was excellent!
It was very suitable for cooling!
Mcgee had already planned to use the discarded straw mat to cover the attic when the weather was warmer and sleep in the attic at night.
[System Notification: The rewards on the ranking list have been settled!]
[System Notification: Congratulations on obtaining the land deed for the reward!]
[System Notification: You have a new friend request!]
Mcgee was a little puzzled. The system reward had just been settled. Who would add him as a friend at this time?
He opened the system panel and saw that it was the second-tier trafficker called Isaac Romon.
After seeing that Mcgee had agreed to his friend request, Romon immediately sent a message, “Big brother Mcgee, would you consider an alliance with me?”
