Chapter 35 Three Golden Equipment, Level a City Building Mission
As a Legendary Boss, William did not have too many requirements for his equipment for now.
Beginner-level equipment was just for temporary usage.
After he had found the mythril mine, William could be counted as a wealthy person. However, he wasn't interested in wasting the material to make some low-level equipment.
After all, William understood that if he didn't get himself into trouble, it would be very hard for him to die while he was under Lautner's protection.
Also, his leveling-up speed would be rather fast, so there was no need to get any equipment.
Although any equipment could be dismantled and reused, it would be pretty good if a kilogram of mythril could be retrieved from equipment that used 10 kilograms…
However, making a weapon was still a must!
After they found the mythril mine, he got Odom and Lautner to work together to make three weapons for him.
They made a long sword, a bow, and a dagger.
Both Odom and Lautner's sub-occupation were blacksmiths. One of them was a blacksmith Grandmaster while the other was a blacksmith Master. Their sub-occupations had surpassed their mid-level main occupations…
After all, a living profession and a fighting profession could not be compared.
It was also very different for NPCs and players. NPCs didn't have experience levels, so they had to rely on their familiarity with their living professions.
During the years Odom had escaped, he had spent the majority of his time in mines.
That was why his hobby was playing with iron…
It had been more than forty years since he was born.
He had probably started playing with iron when he was young. It was with that forty years of playing with iron that had resulted in his pair of strong arms.
With his strong arms and his Epic-level bloodline, he was already at the Grandmaster-level for a blacksmith.
[Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, Master, Grandmaster, Legendary were the levels for living professions.]
William got the two of them to work together because he wanted Lautner to be in charge of the style, while Odom was in charge of the attributes. After all, when Dwarfs made equipment, they focused more on attributes than appearance. However, William was a half-blooded Elf that looked handsome…
His swords had to look cool as well!
After all, being strong or not was an issue of the game version while being handsome was forever.

…
The Dawn set of three pieces of equipment was Beginner Gold equipment.
Dark-Gold and even Epic-level equipment could be forged.
However, for Odom, mythril and haematite weren't enough for him to make equipment that was stronger than the gold-level. For the beginner-level, this sort of Gold-quality equipment was already very good.
The equipment did not have any set attributes. However, the sword and dagger had a stacking bleeding effect. To normal soldiers, it was similar to when a young Orc had made a mistake and was awaiting punishment from its Father holding a nail bat as a weapon.
It was clear that the cruelty of the Orcs was related to their family violence.
However, in a society led by nobles, they should still save the peasants when they could…
The short-range warriors in Gods would usually choose two weapons unless they specialized in shield fighting.
The main weapon was in-charge of the main damage while the sub-weapon would make sneak attacks and block attacks. Of course, the sub-weapon was also a good damage dealer. The main difference was in the person's fighting style.
As for whether they could block attacks successfully, it depended on the individual player's luck and skills…
Many new players saw NPCs playing like this, so they followed and ended up dying…
For the past ten years playing the game, William had become extremely good at using double-handed weapons. That was why he especially asked for a super short dagger, so he could pretend to be an assassin if he was bored. After all, he liked to play as an assassin and was super in-tune with the assassin's teachings.
As for a magic staff?
Was that something he should touch?
The reason he was learning such support controlling soul magic was that he did not want to touch a staff…
After I put all of my experience points into the Saint Soul magic, it leveled-up to level 5 while the other skills have reached level 3. I don't have anything left… William tugged his hair in annoyance. This game was good at taking their experience points.
Leveling up a character required a lot of experience, while the battle energy and magic manuals required experience and skills.
If not for the fact that he had this territory and could easily receive all kinds of territory missions, he would have died from experience points.
If he died again, he wouldn't be a grave-level player anymore. He would be a death soul-level player.
"If I hadn't received the mission two days ago, I would really be a little worried." William glanced at the level A mission on his mission list. He couldn't help but want to drool. How many levels could he level up from this large amount of experience?
Building the town.

Secret reward: ?
…
Building a city was a small goal for William over the next six months. As for the secret reward, he glanced at his incomplete inheritance and decided not to ask for such things.
"Although we only have five blacksmith rooms, they are all super large blacksmith workshops and there are 133 blacksmiths in them." William didn't stop the Dwarfs from making super big blacksmith shops.
After all, this group of Dwarfs had been running for their lives for so many years and had spent a good majority of those years living in mines and caves. Apart from fighting, they knew their natural talent was playing with iron.
He had to admit that having so many Dwarf blacksmiths was something other places couldn't have even if they wanted. Many towns wanted a high-leveled blacksmith, but they were daydreaming.
But how many high-leveled blacksmiths did Border Town have?
More than thirty.
They had no choice. Even if the Dwarfs liked to play with iron, their levels were still a result of circumstance. After all, they had no other leisure activities…
At the master-level, there were five more Dwarf blacksmiths apart from Lautner!
At the Grandmaster-level, apart from Odom, there was also Old Hank, that hidden character with an Epic bloodline.
Did anyone buy the items made by these Dwarfs?
This wasn't a concern.
As the Lord, William would naturally find a way for them to sell them. Black Lava Dukedom, who no longer had an iron source, would definitely buy large batches of equipment when facing a tough situation.
However, his Highness didn't plan to sell the iron anymore. Instead, he got them made into pieces of equipment, so they could sell it at a higher price.
Not only could the blacksmiths gain experience in forging, but they could also earn quite a large sum.
Of course, as the transaction's middleman, he earned the most. As the Lord, William was the owner of the iron mine and the Dwarfs were basically working for him.
Buildings such as the Temple of Light, Magic Sanctuary, or Palace of Darkness buildings were not a problem because they were neutral.
As part of the neutral faction, Border Town could choose to not build the three buildings.
Or they could build all three of them at the same time.
Such things acted like a religion spreading their beliefs, with the three parties fighting one another.
If he built a Temple of Light, then rarer occupations like Temple Knights and clerics would appear.
If they built the other palaces, other rare occupations would appear too.
"It's just a bit of an effort to contact those people. Perhaps, they might despise my town and not send people over…" William scratched his head. He had to build a Temple of Light and Palace of Darkness, with the main benefit to attract future players and nothing else.
He could not build the Magic Sanctuary. If he did, Moses' life could be very difficult in the future and he might even leave.
There was no need to abandon the future Legendary big Boss for an Intermediate mage teacher.
"Why don't we go all out and build a mage's tower for Moses now?" William scratched his head again. It was very expensive to build a mage's tower, but it wasn't impossible, just that it was a little hard now…
