Chapter 174 - Weaponsmithy (level 1)
During the past month, even though the special training program was not very intense, it was not easy either.
Among the 100 youngsters in the special training program, 90 of them had only baron grade talent in their respective profession and the remaining youngsters had viscount grade talents.
However, Lucas didn't worry about their talents as he knew sooner or later he would get the talent crystals as he had multiple sources to get them from.
Currently, he made everyone go through the modified exercises to make their bodies flexible and strong. Once they started the professional training, it would be different for each profession.
"Master, are you here for an inspection?"
Harper and Reece were the special instructors that were training the youngsters from the special training program and when they saw Lucas, they respectfully asked him.
"With you two as the instructors, there is no need for an inspection."
Reece and Harper, both were his loyal followers and his henchmen. He blessed them with the title 'Sovereign Henchmen' because he trusted them and their battle instincts.
So, he shook his head with a slight smile on his face before asking, "Just brief me about the progress on their training."
"Thank you for your trust, Master."
Harper thanked Lucas before saying, "Their bodies became very strong despite not gaining the mastery in the weapons and spells."
"With their current bodies, they can block the normal basic spells with their bare bodies. From tomorrow onwards, all the instructors are planning to start making groups for the training in their respective profession."
While saying that, Harper was and Reece were still unable to believe that there were such exercises.
Even though they are very beneficial to only low-level experts or those who are yet to start their profession training, it is still unheard of. At least, they didn't hear that this world is very huge and all kinds of things exist here.
"Are there anyone with special talents?"
Lucas was satisfied with the speed of their training and asked about the special talents.
"No, master. All of them have talents in regular professions like Knight, Mage and Assassin."
Reece shook his head as he replied to Lucas.
"You are doing good; however, make sure you also train properly in the dungeon."
Lucas knew he could not completely rely on the youngsters to become a powerful family. He needed experts like Reece and Harper to become stronger as they were still weak from the bigger picture.
"Yes, master."
Harper and Reece, both acknowledged Lucas' words and Harper replied, "Currently, the Surge squad is clearing the dungeon. After that, Miss Beck will enter the dungeon and then, it will be us."
Since there was only one dungeon, everyone in the Silverstone town had their own turns to enter the dungeon.
There were two official squads for the Hellmore family. One is the Surge squad, made up of the 10 slaves he first bought and the other one is the Lightning squad; however, Reece and Harper are not a part of it as they were very powerful to mix with the youngsters.
Harper, Reece, Porter and Beck are trying to clear the dungeon solo.
Also, the three families under the Hellmore family were also given a single chance each in a month, so that they would also become stronger.
"I will go and check on the young dwarf. You can go back to your work."
After discussing a few more things, Lucas left that place and walked towards the Weaponsmithy that was built by the system using the blueprint.
'Ding,
Building name:- Weaponsmithy
Grade:- Level 1
Effects:- 1) Increases the success rate of the weaponsmith by 20 percent.
2) Increases the chances of appearing good effects and additional effects on the weapons by 10 percent.
Upgrade requirements:- Level 2 weaponsmithy blueprint or other hidden factors.
Whenever he passed by the weaponsmith, Lucas would check the information of the weaponsmithy and it became a habit for him.
'Increment of 20 percent of the success rate was quite high and there is another effect. I could not wait for the level 2 weaponsmithy. I hope I find it soon.'
Looking at the holographic screen in front of him, Lucas could not help but think about the level 2 weaponsmithy.
Because the level 1 weaponsmithy already had good effects, he was looking forward to the level 2 weaponsmtihy.
'I hope someone sells it on the [Exchange platform].'
Since it's been a month since he last used the [Exchange platform], Lucas knew he could use it again; however, he was not in a hurry as entered the weaponsmithy.
'Chunk'
'Clang'
'Clink'
The moment he entered the weaponsmithy, Lucas heard all kinds of metallic sounds.
In level 1 weaponsmithy, the equipment setup for forging the weapons was only sufficient for one weaponsmith.
However, the young dwarf modified the insides of the weaponsmithy by adding a couple of workbenches for his assistants to practice.
As for the main workbench, it could be used only by him and the young ones were not brave enough to use them yet.
"Family head"
Jesse and the other two young men who had earl grade weaponsmith talents were taken as the young dwarf's apprentices. The moment they saw Lucas, they respectfully greeted him by stopping what they were doing.
"Jesse, Asher and Vincent."
Lucas called them by their names because he knew how the young ones would feel when their names were remembered by someone from a high position as he was also the same in the past life.
'However, in the end, I still lost my value when they noticed that I am breaking the limits of human capabilities.'
Lucas shook his head and muttered, 'I will not do like them.'
'Family head remembered my name. Yay!'
Lucas was right. When the three young men heard their names, they were excited.
'Buzz is one of a kind that gets lost while refining a weapon.'
Next, he looked at the young dwarf, who was still refining without greeting him. Lucas shook his head and waited until he refined the weapon.
'Swoosh'
Just as the young dwarf finished the refining, Lucas noticed that weapon started shining with bright light.
