You Qian picked up the water cup and took a sip, preparing to see how Rong Rong would respond.
Rong Rong replied, "Brother, no, I am a fox person not skilled in refining ore."
"One night, I followed the soldiers out to mine, got too far away without realizing it, and when I came back, it was already raining red, and I saw a very strange person lying at the door."
"I felt sorry for him, so I took him in. I didn't expect that the next day he turned into a beastman, and he could also smelt and forge equipment. He said he had been injured in a fight with others, and if I hadn't saved him in time, he would have become a monster."
"To thank me, he voluntarily joined our Qingqiu Village, and the steel was also refined by him!"
In the midst of the red rain, rescuing a poor strange person, and forging iron and steel for her?
You Qian's hand holding the water suddenly paused.
Late at night, under the blood rain, where would there be strange people in the wilderness?
Only eerie things!
She actually saved a weird one?!
This weird one hadn't been completely invaded by ominousness yet, and it was a special type capable of smelting minerals and forging equipment!
Was this incredibly lucky?
Wrong!
A normal leader, seeing blood rain outside at night, knowing that eerie things roamed the wilderness, would have to be crazy to go out. Even if a weird one was lying at the entrance to the territory, everyone would hesitate to kill it directly, taking the experience points as a bonus!
Who would be so idle as to save it?
This girl obviously was, with an overflowing heart of a super saint!
This kind of saintly figure that existed only in legends.
He was seeing one alive for the first time!
You Qian fell into thought.
"With the current strength of the human race, finding opportunities to take down a few weird ones should be possible, right?"
Perhaps, she could find time to bring in a couple of weird ones herself and test her luck?
Somewhere at the border of a desert and a wilderness.
Sand and dust filled the sky.
Here lay an intermediate village.
It was situated low, surrounded by thick earthen walls.
In the territory's courtyard stood a special building - a smelting workshop!
Several fox people continuously brought iron ore collected into the workshop.
Inside the workshop, a tall beastman constantly smelted the iron ore into steel.
Rong Rong, with fox ears and a tail, unconsciously swayed her tail.
She looked at the tall beastman and said happily, "Uncle, I finally got in touch with my brother, but he needs a lot of steel. Let's work together!"
"My brother is super strong. With him, the development of our territory will only get better and better!"
The tall beastman, with a deep voice, replied, "Yes, Queen!"
After that, his movements sped up again.
"Yes, Queen!"
Other fox people also spoke respectfully.
Then they worked even harder to mine and transport iron ore.
The sounds of forging and placing iron ore in the workshop continued unabated.
The entire Qingqiu Village's territory seemed to be even more bustling and prosperous.
Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, night fell again.
You Qian had already put up a large batch of crude equipment obtained from the kobolds in the trading area and chose the bidding mode.
These equipments were worthless to the entire human race, including Yi Qian herself, since they were of too low quality.
Each race had their own exclusive weapons.
For those without exclusive equipment, there were only illusionist Mirage Dreams.
But You Qian primarily relied on illusions and didn't need equipment.
As a leader, she didn't need them either.
However, just because the human race didn't need them didn't mean other leaders didn't.
Newly spawned units didn't come with their own equipment.
After all, only the powerful innate spirits like the human race could obtain exclusive equipment bestowed by heaven and earth.
Even the farmers who made their own weapons could produce very advanced equipment with their "perfect proficiency" in universal crafting skills.
Other leaders' units didn't have this ability!
Although many reincarnated leaders were beasts, there were also many half-beastmen among them.
The wilderness was risky, and having more equipment meant more security.
You Qian believed they knew how to choose.
[Auction Trading Mode]
[Items: Various equipment]
[Trading Items: Steel, stone ore, wood]
[Auction Limit: The highest bidder within the time limit can obtain the item]
[Auction Time Limit: Two hours]
[Note: Equipment from the indigenous intelligent races can enhance units, but the quantity is limited, first come first served!]
The equipment displayed in the trading area immediately caused a stir.
Because, although to You Qian these were just worthless junk, to other leaders, especially humanoid ones, they were different.
Put together, there were close to ninety sets of equipment.
Once equipped on their own units, it would definitely greatly enhance their combat power!
"Damn, Mr. You Qian is showing off his power again!"
"Did Mr. You Qian wipe out another kobold tribe? So many kobold equipments?"
"Why say 'again'?"
"Mr. You Qian is invincible! Although kobolds are considered a low-ranking race, their combat power is not low. My goblins were chased around by them. They blocked my territory gate for a whole morning before leaving, sob sob sob!"
"Patting the kobold upstairs, Mr. You Qian has already wiped out the kobold tribe, avenging you."
"Speaking of dogs, we have to mention @kobolds, this fellow."
"Damn it, I am a celestial dog with a very high bloodline level, not a low-level kobold!"
"Alright, noble kobold."
"Understood, noble kobold."
"So many leaders selling equipment, only Mr. Yi Qian, the first leader, is truly deserving of the title!"
"Not only the first, but also as soon as he acts, he stuns a large group. Too awesome!"
"Kneel to Mr. You Qian!"
In the communication area, there was a wave of praise for Yi Qian.
However, there were also some discordant voices.
"Are we all suffering from Stockholm syndrome, being exploited by the greedy capitalists? These are just low-quality equipment from the low-ranking kobolds. How long can they be used?"
"A bunch of junk is being praised."
"Just buy it. Take it back and see how you cry!"
But then, many voices of rebuttal followed.
"If you can do it, then do it. I'll buy double. If you can't, shut up!"
"Laughing. Now, at this time, complaining about this and that. Want to directly get artifacts? I'm a locksmith, five dollars for one key, ten dollars for three. Do you want?"
"Our units don't even have decent weapons. Now Mr. You Qian is offering benefits, it's not bad to have something other than stones, wood, and exotic beasts. "
"Now that there are no equipment to make, having these equipments, even if the exotic beasts attack in a few days, at least we'll have some attack power, and we might even consider killing more exotic beasts for rewards!"
"
Black powder, get out, don't pollute my eyes!"
"Jealous of Mr. You Qian, just say it directly, instead of beating around the bush and making yourself look down upon!"
...
You Qian's fans had extremely strong combat power, so all the black fans attempting to lead the rhythm were temporarily forced to stop.
You Qian didn't pay attention to these people.
She was focusing on the bidding situation in the "trading area" at the moment.
At this time, the bidding was intense, and the bidding prices were rising steadily.
Many times, even low-grade things, when they appear at the right time, can still play their due value.
So what if it's worthless junk?
As long as someone needs it, it's a treasure!
