Chapter 38: Mineral Resources’ Emergency

As the battle was about to begin in Puba Village, over a hundred blacksmiths in the village all stopped what they were doing.

All of them went to the Science and Technology Academy to help Alger forge equipment for the soldiers who were about to participate in the battle.

The scene was very spectacular to behold. All the blacksmiths in the Science and Technology Academy were busy day and night.

In order to make sure they wouldn’t overwork themselves, Joshua implemented a three-shift system so that all of them could take breaks.

The increase in efficiency took less than three days for them to complete their task. These people had already helped to create more than 60% of the soldiers’ custom-made weapons and equipment.

At this time, a problem appeared!

The materials in the warehouse were in a dire state. It was estimated that in less than three days, these materials would be exhausted.

Seeing the empty warehouse, Alger immediately went to the city hall to ask for help.

In the office.

“Village Chief Joshua, it’s an emergency!”

Seeing Alger so anxious, Joshua immediately stood up.

“The Science and Technology Academy is under attack?”

He hurriedly waved his hand and said, “There are no more materials left from the warehouse. Therefore, we have to continue forging materials for the equipment.”

As he said that, he took out the form in his hand and placed it on the table.

Usually, the materials in the warehouse were exchanged with gold coins. Now that their development was stable, there was no excessive mining in the jungle.

“How much longer will it take?”

“There’s still three more days before we won’t have any more crafting resources left!”

“You can go back first. I’ll think of a solution right now.”

After Alger left, Joshua immediately called for Georgi.

“Village chief, what are your orders?”

“Georgi, stop all the construction sites in your hands for a while.”

“Tell these people to quickly go to the mine to mine. Right now, there are not enough materials to make more war equipment!”

“There’s about three days left.”

“Yes, my Lord! I’ll do it right away.”

After receiving the order, Georgi immediately took action. He assigned strong races like minotaur to mine the mines.

Although it eased the current situation, it still needed to be refined. In less than five days, the materials were still insufficient.

By then, only 80% of the soldiers would have any equipment, which was very disadvantageous to the war. Moreover, it would only be armor and nothing else.

The war would wear these out at any moment and they would need to be constantly replenished in the future.

Left with no choice, Joshua could only pace back and forth, not knowing what to do…

Just as Mondette arrived at a tavern in the Floating Plane, she heard the people there discussing the undeveloped land of the eastern continent.

Because the flow of information was very fast, the people here had already started to place their bets.

“Come, come, come! The bets are on. This is a big bet.”

“The holy war is about to break out between the east continent’s undistributed towns and Puba Village. Everyone, place your bets!”

“The odds for Tobomori are 1 to 1.5, while Puba Village’s odds are 1 to 5. There’s no limit. Everyone, come quickly!”
