Su Luo wasn't in a hurry. His hoe didn't give him any strength when he fought, but it had an additional attribute. It was simply insane when used for mining!
The average player would have a mining ability of 0.2 with the pickaxe that came with the farm. However, the pickaxe in the newbie gift package had a mining ability of 2, not to mention that it had an attack bonus!
With this additional attribute alone, Su Luo could crush all the players!
Su Luo continued to swing his hoe.
He didn't know how long he dug.
"Hu~ Hu~"
Su Luo wiped off the sweat on his forehead. He looked exhausted and even hungry.
[Ding--]
[You have dug out black iron spirit ore!]
"I actually dug out the black iron spirit ore!"
Su Luo's eyes lit up. At this moment, he was in a great mood!
Black iron spirit ore was the best material to upgrade ordinary weapons.
Its value even exceeded that of the dark iron spirit ore!
The black iron spirit ore contained rich spiritual energy, but it was not something that any ordinary weapon could absorb. The success rate was less than ten percent!
However, Su Luo, who had a max-level farm, was completely different!
His blacksmith shop was Level 99, and he could forge all kinds of equipment with a 100% success rate. It also had at least one random special attribute.
However, this was not the time to be excited.
The clanking sounds were heard again. Su Luo kept digging the iron ore, and one black iron ore after another was dug out by Su Luo.
The mining had been going on for two days!
During this time, Su Luo ate an inedia pill. This was a free gift from the game, and there were only three of them. They were extremely precious in the early stages of the game, but Su Luo didn't care at all!
At this moment, the iron mine in front of Su Luo was piled up like a mountain. There were two to three hundred ores!
"What a great harvest!"
Su Luo was very satisfied with his success and left the mine happily.
Soon, Su Luo returned to the Demonic Land.
He came to a slightly empty and flat area, and directly controlled the manor to be opened up!
The earth trembled and then bulged, turning into a huge mound!
Immediately after, the mound grew higher and higher, and in a short while, the mound became like a small city!
Then, around the farm, towering old trees rose from the ground and covered the entire farm. The dense branches covered the sky as if they were going to break the sky!
Inside the farm, there were many buildings, and the edge of the farm was surrounded by a circular wall that was a thousand feet long!
At the entrance, there were nine pillars supporting it. The carvings on the pillars were resplendent and exuded a sense of dignity and majesty!
On the top of the door beam, a huge plaque hung:
Su Luo's Farm!
Su Luo's lips curled up into a smile, his heart in turmoil.
This max-level farm had a camouflage effect. As long as they didn't get his permission, any player who saw this farm would think it was a normal farm.
On the inside, it was a true max-level farm.
Su Luo was extremely excited. He couldn't wait to step into the farm!
The moment he stepped into the farm.
Ka--!
Suddenly, Su Luo heard a crisp sound.
[The settlement of the farm was successful. The player received 2,000 points of spiritual energy as a gift from the max-level farm.]
[Player has reached the level-up requirement. Do you wish to choose to level up your character?]
"Choose to level up," Su Luo said indifferently.
Wu--!
A warm current flowed into Su Luo's head and circulated through his limbs and bones.
As the warm current flowed through Su Luo's entire body, he felt comfortable, as if he was soaking in a hot spring.
[Character level has been upgraded to Level 2. Attribute panel has been updated.]
Character attribute panel:
[Name: Su Luo]
[Level: 2 (To level up, the farm must reach level 3 and absorb 2,000 spiritual energy.) ]
[Strength: 15]
[Agility: 25]
[Spiritual Power: 105]
[HP: 1,000/1,000]
Farm property panel:
[Owner of the Farm: Su Luo]
[Farm Level: Max]
[Farmland Level 99]: Can breed all kinds of spiritual plants. The growth speed of spiritual plants is increased by 100 times. The harvest of spiritual plants is increased by 100 times. The effect of spiritual plants is increased by 100 times.
[Ranch Level 99]: Can hatch all kinds of spirit beasts. The maximum number of breeding places has been reached. The breeding speed of mounts and pets has been increased by 100 times.
[Mine Level 99]: The production rate of top-tier minerals is increased by 100 times.
[Blacksmith Shop Level 99]: Can forge all kinds of equipment with a 100% success rate. It comes with at least one random special attribute.
....
Su Luo immediately went to the mine and threw all the ores he had dug into the mine.
A Level 99 mine would increase the production rate of top-grade minerals by a hundred times, not to mention ordinary minerals. They would be completely refined without any waste.
More than 300 pieces of ore were directly refined into usable fine-grade ores, and not a single piece was wasted.
Not only that, but these 300 pieces of ore could normally allow the farm to produce about 200 spiritual energy points.
But because of the tenfold increase, Su Luo's farm produced 2,000 spiritual energy points in an instant.
In the early stages of the game, he was a rich man!
After leaving the mine, Su Luo entered the blacksmith's shop.
The temperature in the blacksmith shop was very high, and a large number of tools such as forging tables, smelting furnaces, and so on were set up.
"Learn forging!"
Su Luo directly spent 200 spiritual energy points to learn forging from the blacksmith shop's options.
[Ding-! Forging Art has been mastered!]
[Ding-! Beginner-level Forging proficiency is maxed out, upgraded to intermediate.]
There were five stages in the Forging Art. From low to high, it was: beginner, intermediate, advanced, grandmaster, and saint.
However, since the blacksmith's shop was at the maximum level, the forging skill that he learned in the blacksmith's shop was intermediate forging.
This was because those below this level were not qualified to operate a max-level blacksmith shop.
[Ding-! You are the first player in the region to master the intermediate Forging Art. You have been rewarded with 2,000 spiritual energy points.]
Su Luo was not surprised by this reward. After all, in his previous life, it was said that the first player to master intermediate forging took half a month.
Su Luo glanced around the blacksmith shop, and without any hesitation, he chose auto forging.
All the farms were equipped with automatic forging, but in order to save money, almost no one knew how to do it.
However, for Su Luo, this little bit of spiritual energy was nothing.
[Using the automatic forging function, 300 spiritual energy points were consumed.]
[Please choose a forging blueprint or upgrade your weapon.]
"Level up the hoe."
[Player's 'hoe' has been automatically inspected...]
Player's 'hoe' has been inspected. Attributes:
[Weapon: Hoe (yellow-tier)]
[Rarity: Ordinary]
[Increased Attack Power: 3.7]
[Increased Strength: 0.5]
[Increased Agility: 0.4]
[Increased Vitality: 0.2]
[Additional Effects: Woodcutting, mining, and farmland abilities increased by 2...]
[Based on the materials available, the best way to upgrade the 'hoe' has been automatically generated...]
[The forging process is about to begin. Please put the black iron spirit ore and 100 pieces of black iron ore into the smelting furnace.]
Su Luo threw all the ores he needed into it without any hesitation.
[Begin forging.]
As for the rest, he could just hand them over to the blacksmith shop for automatic forging.
However, the time required was actually slower than manual work, and the advantage was that there were no mistakes at all.
This was especially true for a max-level blacksmith. Not only would they not make any mistakes, but their forging success rate was also 100%.
It was not like the low-level blacksmith shop, where the success rate was even lower than 50%, and they had to rely on various gemstones to increase the success rate.
