Ethan looked at Mia, and Mia's face was full of triumphant smiles.
Before Ethan could speak, the system began to sound an alarm!
[Warning! Warning! The passage between the mountains and the abandoned temple is under attack! Under attack!]
Ethan's face darkened, just as he had expected... indeed, there were intruders!
Mia also noticed that Ethan's expression was off, and said,
"If you have things to do, go ahead."
Ethan nodded, immediately spread his dragon wings, opened the map, and saw a red light flashing, which must be the invasion point.
The Divine Dragon Warrior in the distance was still at the iron mine and couldn't make it in time, the goblins were too far away, and had the same problem.
He immediately issued an order: everyone's task remains the same, continue on.
Ethan arrived alone at the place under attack.
The wooden fence was full of green corrosive liquid, and the fence itself had become shabby.
It must have been attacked just now.
At this time, he didn't find the attacking monster.
He observed the surroundings, and the trees and grass around hadn't been trampled on, so it definitely wasn't a large animal.
Ethan walked forward, and the green corrosive liquid made a squeaky sound on the wooden fence, accompanied by white smoke rising.
The wooden fence was completely damaged.
It seemed that the attacker was a small animal that could spit out or carry corrosive liquid.
Ethan felt a headache in his heart.
Small animals are extremely difficult to defend against, and they may also have a certain level of toxicity, which is a great threat to the Earth Dragon Laborer!
Just as he was standing in thought, a snake slithered down from a tree.
Its entire body was vibrant green, with a forked tongue darting in and out.
Its vertical pupils were filled with madness.
Though it wasn't intelligent, Ethan's aura, emanating from the Golden Divine Dragon, was attracting it.
Silently coiling its body, it aimed for Ethan's most vulnerable spot—his neck.
The snake moved as fast as lightning, its venomous fangs even beginning to release venom while still in mid-air.
A sense of unease suddenly surged in Ethan's heart.
Activate Divine Dragon Form!
The dragon scales on his body collided with the fangs, making a sound like gold and stone knocking, and the fangs couldn't penetrate at all!
Ethan turned back and grabbed the snake in his hand, his face wore a cold expression.
The force in his hand kept growing, and the snake began to go crazy, biting Ethan's arm continuously, trying to escape from here, its eyes were full of fear.
With the changing into the Divine Dragon Form, the oppression from the Bloodline made it unable to resist at all, that random biting was nothing more than a sense of death instinct.
The cartilage was crushed, the snake's head drooped down, and it lost its previous spirit.
Ethan stretched out his claw to cut off the snake's head, and threw the snake meat into his backpack.
Although snake meat is not very tasty, it is also food, and the Earth Dragon Laborer will not pick.
Soon, the Divine Dragon Warrior who was guarding the Earth Dragon Laborer also came to Ethan.
The Divine Dragon Warrior hurried forward.
"Apologies for my tardiness in protecting you, Master!"
Ethan waved his hand, instructing him to continue escorting the Earth Dragon Laborer to the abandoned temple.
Then he spread his dragon wings and began to fly low.
It was now noon and most of the monsters had already awakened.
Seeing the strong aura flying across the sky, these monsters were all terrified and dared not show their faces!
Ethan flew around, and no monsters appeared.
It seems that most of the monsters in this area are D-level, and they will not pose a significant threat.
He returned to the altar.
By this time, the iron mine had already been emptied, and a mysterious treasure was discovered at the very bottom.
[Mutant Seed] can transform the land within 10 meters centered on Mutant Seed into cursed seeds. The seeds transform into a living form, have aggressiveness, and produce double food!
Ethan's eyes lit up, this thing is absolutely good!
Now, few people in the Dark Lord camp start farming, mainly affected by these reasons.
The first is the lack of labor.
Simply collecting those necessary resources has been enough for other Dark Lords to be overwhelmed.
Even if they send out all their subordinates, it's still not enough.
They still have to buy resources from the trading market.
In this way, who would still farm?
In addition, the return of farming is not large, far less than hunting and gathering provide much food, naturally, few people plant.
Ethan is different, with this Mutant Seed, he can get double food from planting.
Even if the seed turns into a living form, so what? Can it make pumpkins grow teeth? Make potatoes crazy?
Ethan spent a few Gold Coins and bought a few common seeds in the exchange.
He found an open space where there used to be a forest.
After the trees here were cut down, only a bare tree stump remained.
He quickly dug out the tree stump from the mud and filled the pit with the soil next to it.
This is a position to the right of the center of the abandoned temple, safety is definitely not a concern.
If the plantation is invaded, it also proves that Ethan is not far from being wiped out...
Ethan opened the map, selected the building column, swiped right, selected the plantation. After planning the scope on the mini map, the land immediately became moist and suitable for planting.
He then called over an Earth Dragon Laborer and gave him the task of the plantation.
Planting is not as simple as imagined.
Turning the soil, burying seeds, watering, spreading fertilizer, removing pests, weeding, harvesting.
Each process does not take a long time, but it is too tedious.
Ethan returned to the altar and summoned 2 Divine Dragon Warriors.
He formed a small team with the 3 Divine Dragon Warriors and began to explore unknown areas.
The remaining Earth Dragon Laborers followed behind, acting as tools, following the Divine Dragon Warriors to pick up resources.
Ethan thought about it, called the Holy Light Goblin back, and let them continue to collect the area of the abandoned temple.
The progress bar had come to 97%, just need to work a little harder, and the treasure box can be opened!
He had nothing to do for the time being, so he also began to explore the Horizon Mountains.
After all, tasks are important.
What can be taken advantage of is free!
Then it was evening.
With Ethan and the 3 Divine Dragon Warriors exploring, the exploration progress rate of the Horizon Mountains surprisingly reached 30% in half a day.
He immediately summoned the Divine Dragon Warriors back.
The moment the Earth Dragon Laborers stepped into the abandoned temple, the resource display on the system instantly grew wildly!
Food directly broke through the 300 mark!
Although food is scarce in the mountains, it's still much richer than the abandoned temple.
Ethan opened the system, tallying up the resources he currently had on hand.
[Food: 305
Wood: 40
Iron Resources: 10
Gold: 0
Gold Coins: 995]
He increasingly felt the importance of tools.
If those Earth Dragon Laborers were equipped with handy tools, and even had transport tools, their efficiency would at least be about half faster than it is now.
Thinking of this, Ethan immediately gave an order.
Three Divine Dragon Warriors lead the way, Holy Light Goblins protect the Earth Dragon Laborer, and continue to mine iron.
They strive to obtain 100 iron ores before tomorrow.
In this way, more Divine Dragon Craftsmen can also be summoned.
In this way, the problem of tools will also be solved.
As usual, Ethan set up the barbecue rack.
After feeding Mia, the two of them lay on the wooden bed and fell asleep in a daze.
Daytime came quickly, Ethan carefully crawled out of Mia's arms, afraid to disturb Mia's sweet dreams.
After a night, the number of iron resources reached 180.
The resource acquisition rate of the Horizon Mountains also came to 40%.
Ethan went to the altar and summoned Divine Dragon Craftsman.
As the white light faded, a Divine Dragon Craftsman appeared in the altar.
The Craftsman held a hammer in his hand and carried many iron tools, the names of which couldn't be identified, on his back.
The muscles on his body were extremely developed, even thicker than the Divine Dragon Warriors.
"Greetings, Master!"
The Craftsman holding the hammer knelt in front of Ethan with a devout face.
Ethan nodded and opened the panel of Divine Dragon Craftsman.
[Name: Divine Dragon Craftsman
Intelligence: Craftsman Master approaching 60 years old
Strength: F
Special Ability: Creating Secret Weapon (can only be used once in a lifetime, creating the artifact of the legendary dragon race, strength changes according to enhancement level)
Enhancement Direction: Craftsman Master, Weapon Master, Defense Master, Base Building Master

Ethan was amazed, as expected of a Craftsman, professional indeed!
No wonder it requires 100 iron, this iron hammer plus the tools carried on the back, all consume iron resources!
At this time, the system suddenly announced.
[Ding! Detected that the host summoned Craftsman, building conditions have been met!]
