Era of Castles: Starting with 99 Dragon Eggs Novel - Chapter 30
Chapter 30: Catch Up to Mike! Activate the Blueprint!
She looked at the commander-level earth dragon meat that had been sold out and taken off the shelves.
She fell silent.
The three elite-level grassland wolves’ corpses that had piled up beside her did not seem to smell so good anymore.
“It’s hard to understand!”
“How can his development speed be so fast?”
“It’s one thing to wipe out the goblin tribe, but now he can even kill a tier 6 earth dragon commander!”
“Is the strength of his troops really that strong?”
“But it’s not a big deal if his troops are dragons.”
“After all, earth dragons belong to the sub-dragon system. Their bloodline isn’t as pure as dragons.”
“It’s normal to be suppressed, but a level 6 commander shouldn’t be underestimated.”
A few days ago.
She was helpless against a level 4 elite bison.
Now, her angel team could easily surround and kill an elite-level prairie wolf.
The angel team’s strength had soared!
Her confidence also rose.
She thought that it was just a matter of time before she caught up to Mike.
But now, Mike’s move was like a bolt from the blue for her.
It was a huge blow!
A tier 6 commander-level monster and an earth dragon with dragon bloodline.
If her team of angels encountered it, they would definitely be wiped out.
This meant that Mike’s army was much stronger than her team of angels.
“However, I won’t give up!”
“Moreover, we haven’t even passed the beginner stage yet.”
“No matter how big the gap is, there’s still a chance to catch up!”
“Although the Beast Tide is coming tomorrow!”
“But I still have an afternoon!”
Looking at the seraphs who were hunting the prairie wolves in the distance, Bella quickly regained her confidence.
She was not an ordinary Castle Lord, but a Castle Lord with a top-tier army.
This was her capital to catch up with Mike!
“After tomorrow, the novice protection period ends.”
“The Beast Tide is coming!”
“This Beast Tide activity is my chance to catch up, or even surpass Mike!”
As long as she got the highest score and obtained the only reward.
Surpassing Mike would be easy and relaxing.
Thinking of this, Bella’s heart also calmed down.
She no longer paid attention to the world chat channel and focused on leading the angel team to hunt the prairie wolves.
…
Other than what Bella thought.
There were also many Castle Lords with high-level and top-tier military services.
Because Mike killed the earth dragon commander and annihilated the earth dragon group. They were greatly shocked.
But soon, they also became full of confidence.
Now, it was only the seventh day of the arrival of billions of Castle Lords.
It belonged to the early stages of the ‘game’.
A temporary lag did not mean anything big.
They had the confidence to chase after Mike.
Mike did not have the time to care about the things in the outside world.
Bella and those top Castle Lords saw him as their target, wanting to catch up to him and surpass him.
This was not something he cared about at all.
What he was paying attention to at this moment was the battle equipment in his hands.
An unknown blueprint.
A strange crystal.
44 energy stones.
Adding the 50 energy stones that he had obtained from hunting in the morning, that was a total of 94 energy stones.
It was just a drop in the bucket to upgrade the dragon’s nest again.
5,000 energy stones, 50 energy stones.
That was not a small amount.
It would take a period of accumulation to reach.
It was impossible to upgrade the dragon’s nest in the near future.
Moreover, the Beast Tide was coming.
The main goal now was to deal with the Beast Tide.
Mike stored the energy stones and strange crystals in the warehouse of the castle.
Besides, this harvest was not limited to these.
Through collecting and decomposing the earth dragon’s corpse.
In addition to harvesting a large amount of food, he also obtained a large amount of earth dragon materials.
For example, dragon claws, scales, skin, teeth, bones, and so on.
These earth dragon materials were all very valuable.
Especially the materials from a tier 6 earth dragon commander, they were even more precious. Even a palm-sized scale had great value.
These earth dragon materials were all packaged by Mike and given to the little loli in the underground world.
Her gray dwarf blacksmith could use these earth dragon materials to forge even more powerful equipment.
Perhaps even high-level equipment could be forged.
After all, the quality of the materials was different.
The quality of the equipment forged would naturally be different as well.
“Equipment forged from tier 6 earth dragon materials.”
“It will definitely be very attractive and cause a ruckus!”
Mike expressed his anticipation.
Because the more castle lords fought over equipment, the more he earned.
The resources he earned.
Would definitely strengthen the foundation of Dragon King Castle.
Finally, Mike looked at the blueprint in his hand.
The blueprint was rectangular, slightly bigger than an adult’s palm.
The whole thing was azure blue, and the surface was covered with countless strange patterns, like runes.
One could vaguely see that those runes were emitting a faint golden light.
One could tell at a glance that it was not an ordinary thing.
[Unknown blueprint found. Do you want to appraise it?]
[Yes][No]
An information template appeared in Mike’s field of vision.
Mike did not hesitate and immediately chose [Yes].
After all, this was a blueprint that he had never seen before.
Mike was also very much looking forward to what kind of things this blueprint could produce.
Appraising a blueprint was similar to opening a blind box.
The type of blueprint, the quality of it, it all depended on one’s luck.
Mike drew a conclusion based on the information he had learned from various aspects.
He came to a conclusion.
Blueprints were divided into various types, such as construction blueprint, equipment blueprints, and special blueprints (military types, skills, legions, and so on).
There were also different levels of blueprints.
The most common ones were low-level blueprints, the better ones were middle-level blueprints, and the better ones were high-level blueprints.
As for whether there were any better quality blueprints after high-level blueprints, it was still impossible to guess for the time being.
The three blueprints that little loli Lin Yaoyao dropped belonged to the construction category.
Among them, [fence] was a low-grade construction blueprint.
[Smelting furnace] and [smithy] were intermediate construction blueprints.
“I wonder what type of blueprint this is.”
“Is the quality good or bad?”
Mike was a little nervous.
His two hands kept rubbing against each other to ease his nervousness.
After all, this was the first blueprint that he had dropped.
His heart was filled with anticipation.
Although it was dropped from a tier 6 earth dragon commander, the probability of its quality was not low.
But if he had bad luck.
It was very likely that the appraised blueprint was of a low grade.
…
A white light appeared out of thin air.
It enveloped the azure blueprint in Mike’s hand.
This was the appraisal light!
Appraisal was one of the basic skills of the Castle Lord.
Currently, the known basic skills of the Castle Lord included gathering, mining, cutting, planting, appraisal, and so on.
The basic skills were hidden skills.
They were not displayed in the personal information panel of the Castle Lord.
The Castle Lord had to figure it out on his own.
After all, this seemed like a game of hegemony, but it was actually a real world.
After a while, the white light disappeared.
The blueprint also revealed its original appearance.
In fact, the blueprint itself did not change much. It was still azure blue and was emitting a faint light.
It was just that its information had changed.
