Chapter 248 Black Iron Stone
"I pushed these black iron stones down."
A beautiful woman behind looked at Mo Lan's back and spoke.
"When the Earl's message came back, my first thought was to push these black iron stones down, and my first action was also to push these black iron stones down.
In fact, I was right. These black iron stones are the most valuable assets of the Red Maple family, but also the most tempting treasure.
The Red Maple Family's properties were taken away one after another, but as long as the Red Maple Family was not destroyed and the Knights still had one person, they would not be able to take a piece of Black Iron Stone from the bottom of the water.
And these cowards obviously don't dare to kill a count's family, even if the count is dead."
The Countess looked at the man in front of her, but he was not moved at all and did not even turn around once, which made her heart full of sadness.
Mo Lan really didn't intend to pay attention to her and sent a message on his own.
"Lin Wo, organize some people to come to the center of Red Maple City to move my things for me."
"Moving those black iron stones? Here they come."
Mo Lan was stunned.
"Hmm? You know?"
"Yes, there are so many black iron stones. I must know it, but I saw that you didn't move, so I thought you had other plans, so I didn't move, I just took a look."
"You're watching?"
"Yes, if I wasn't watching, how could that orphan and his widowed mother hold on to these black iron stones? Don't be ridiculous, they would have been taken away by Yi Fei and his men long ago.
Wait, you don't know? Did you forget about these black iron stones? "
"Um."
"?!!!!!!!"
“I’m tired!”
"I don't love you anymore!"
“I’m so hurt!”
"I'm so naive!"
"?? Not replying? Reply to me!!"
"Reply to me!"
Mo Lan looked at the screen full of exclamation marks, closed the chat page and pretended not to see it.
The elegant and noble lady bit her lower lip, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, and she knelt down.
"I am willing to commit myself to you, sir. I only ask that you give me a son to inherit the Red Maple family."
The people around and the knights watched with clenched fists, their eyes looking towards Mo Lan with anger in them, but they could only hold it back and do nothing, because they knew what kind of power this ordinary man in front of them possessed, and what kind of powerful strength this man in front of them possessed.
Mo Lan suddenly felt a series of magical fluctuations. He turned his head and saw a hole opening in the ground. Several mages walked out of it and waved at Mo Lan.
"President, President, this!"
Seeing this, Mo Lan walked over and pointed down.
"You guys have been down there all this time?"
"yes."
"Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard, it's not hard. President, please come down and take a look."
"Yeah, okay."
Mo Lan followed several mages and walked down the passage. Above, a graceful and slim countess was kneeling on the ground. Her small face was full of sadness, and the eyes of the knights around her were full of anger and restraint.
But no matter whether they were sad or angry, no one looked at them from beginning to end, not even once.
The wizard walking in the passage asked Mo Lan curiously.
"President, you are not moved at all? That's the Countess!"
"The rosy skull..."
Before Mo Lan could say anything, he heard them continue talking.
“This game can get things done.”
"...I didn't even look at her for a second."
“Awesome.”
These mages immediately gave their thumbs up, but just as they did so, they saw Mo Lan stroke his non-existent beard on his chin.
"Which guild leader can stand this kind of test?"
Everyone froze when they heard that, but then they burst into laughter, and their eyes became much more friendly when they looked at Mo Lan.
The passage was not shallow, but the few people had quick feet and soon they were out of the narrow space and saw the open space.
This is a square room, with a modified version of the light spell floating on the top, which glows faintly but lasts for a long time.
The room that comes into view is the largest, with many seats and a blackboard. It is obviously a living room used as a discussion room.
There are several doors on the walls around the living room, and behind the doors are bedrooms of various shapes.
There was a passage on the other side. In the passage, Mo Lan saw a ball of light and flowers and plants planted underneath the ball of light.
In the middle of the flowers and plants are horizontal and vertical ridges, with wheat, rice, corn, cabbage, cucumbers, and an earthen stove next to it, with some wood piled next to it.
"hey-hey."
Seeing Mo Lan looking over, a few people smiled awkwardly, and Mo Lan could only silently give him a thumbs up.
"Would you like to have a midnight snack, President?"
"Then let's prepare some. Your dish looks quite appetizing."
"hey-hey."
"By the way, do you have any black iron stone?"
"Yes, I'll bring it to the president right away."
Upon hearing this, a wizard ran to the next room and came out holding a meter-long strip of black iron stone.
The dark surface of the stone exudes a metallic luster. In addition to being as hard as iron, the black iron stone also has a weight comparable to iron.
"President, it's very heavy. Shall I move it directly to the lab for you?"
"Yeah, okay."
After a while, the mage brought Mo Lan into the laboratory, put the black iron stone away, and then closed the door and left.
As soon as the stone door fell, Mo Lan instantly felt that the entire laboratory fell into silence. He could not hear any sound from outside. The sound insulation was very good.
Mo Lan looked at the spotless yet worn laboratory and felt quite emotional, but he immediately immersed his mind on the black iron stone in front of him.
“Ding ding ding!”
I took a small iron rod and knocked it twice, making a sound of metal collision.
He took out the dagger from his waist, sharpened it with the sharpness skill, and cut it little by little, without leaving any scratch.
The mental force tried to penetrate inside and sense the situation inside the black iron stone, but it was very difficult to penetrate.
"A metallic black iron stone. If I cast a metallic defense-enhancing spell, the defense strength of this stone itself will reach an extremely terrifying level.
And if you use this to stabilize the fourth-ring Fireball, well, it should be possible, there is no restraint on the attributes.
However, if fire element stone could be used, the effect would be better.
If that's the case, maybe I can try to use black iron stone as the main body of the mage tower, mainly for load bearing and defense, and use elemental stones of other elements as casting modules."
Mo Lan plans to build the new mage tower with a variety of elemental stones, bringing out the characteristics of stones with different attributes, and together constructing a more powerful four-ring mage tower.
" Let's do it. Now let me try to make a constant spell model on the black iron stone. Wait, there seems to be no mercury."
Mo Lan suddenly realized that he didn't find it in the laboratory, so he went out to ask the magician and got confirmation that it was indeed not there.
“Since there is no mercury, let’s design a new wizard tower first.
I don’t want it to be the same as before, but if I want it to be different, then what should I build it like and what functions should I design?”
Mo Lan fell into deep thought.
