"Oh right, Stone Six."
Ethan suddenly remembered that all of this enchanted ore was also something Stone Six had dug up through brute force and luck.
Back when he took Hunter Five and the others to the icy plains, Stone Six's group of ten people had all stayed behind in the ash quality mining area, so logically speaking, they should have dug up even more ore.
"Yes, Lord?", Stone Six immediately knelt on one knee, waiting to hear Ethan's orders.
But Ethan just waved his hand and said, "You don't have to kneel every time. I just want to ask, after I left, did you dig up more ore? Especially this kind of enchanted ore. It's an important material for making the bone dragon blade, and we are still quite short of it."
"Of course! Our whole group never forgot the lord's teachings. We have all been working hard at mining."
Stone Six immediately showed his results, "Reporting to the lord, my group dug up a total of 10086 stone, 5006 iron ore, 1699 black iron ore, 888 magnetic ore, 299 enchanted ore, and 15 dragon coins."
"So much!"
Even Ethan was shocked.
'Sure enough, only when you have tools do you have combat power.'
'No wonder capitalists love to exploit hired workers. This is the answer right here.'
"Reporting to the lord, if it weren't because our backpack load limits were not high enough," Stone Six said with full tool man awareness, "We think we could have dug up even more. And Lord, we also discovered a lot of mud and such, but because we had no carrying capacity, we could only waste it."
"Not enough carrying capacity is indeed a big problem."
As Ethan the Big Capitalist, how could he let go of a chance to exploit the tool men even more?
He immediately came up with a good idea, "But you don't have to worry. This time I found the best equipment for you, a ten thousand slot backpack. It will definitely let you store all kinds of ore better and faster, and bring them back so everyone can work together to build an even better and more beautiful home."
"Yes, Lord!"
When all the tool men heard they could contribute to the home, every one of them was overjoyed.
None of them felt that Ethan was just drawing a big pie for them at all.
"Since we have enough enchanted ore, hand it to the logistics team and have them make forty five blades," Ethan immediately ordered, "One for everyone!"
"Huh?"
Cook Four immediately spoke up. "Lord, do we get one too? But we don't go out of the villa, what are we supposed to do with a bone dragon blade, chop vegetables?"
"Of course it's not for chopping vegetables."
Ethan laughed and cried at the same time, "It's for you to keep for self defense. After all, this is a battle of the rise of all nations. And there are so many terrifying natives out there, who knows what will happen in the future."
"So as girls, you need to protect yourselves."
"So boys don't need to protect themselves?", Ivankov was unhappy, "Yiya! Lord, I'm in danger too, you know!"
"Alright, alright, boys need to protect themselves too, especially be careful of Ivankov, okay?"
"Hahaha!"
Everyone burst out laughing.
Only then did Ethan hand all the materials needed for the bone dragon blades to Logistics.
Anyway, the permissions had already been given to her, so Logistics could fully share Ethan's magic book and craft whatever weapons and equipment were needed.
After that, Ethan started learning the [Advanced Backpack Crafting Blueprint].
[Advanced Backpack Crafting Blueprint: A huge backpack with 100000 slots of space, definitely your best helper for home and travel. Crafting requirements: Advanced Beast Hide 2018/2, Hemp Thread 482/1 (Water Ghost Green Silk 4328/2), Wind type Beast Core 38/1]
According to the barrel theory, the shortest plank determines how much water it can hold.
Ethan had a lot of every other material. Especially the Water Ghost Green Silk that could be used to replace hemp thread, he had 4328 of it, more than enough for a long time.
But the wind type beast cores were the only thing he had just 38 of, so at most he could only make 38 ten thousand slot backpacks.
Luckily, the number of residents who went out was only 30.
So making 30 backpacks was enough.
"Craft!"
[Advanced Backpack +30, Advanced Beast Hide -60, Water Ghost Green Silk -60, Wind type Beast Core -30]
Very soon, thirty white advanced backpacks appeared in Ethan's warehouse.
The fur of the backpacks was white, exactly the fur that dropped from snow monsters, and on the flap of the backpack there was a green beast core embedded in it, which was the wind type beast core.
Ethan handed the backpacks out to the residents.
One by one, they held the backpacks with extreme care, not even daring to touch them with dirty hands, afraid they might get them dirty.
Even the group of female residents were extremely envious.
"If only we could go out hunting too, then we would have such pretty advanced backpacks."
"This backpack is really so pretty, and it's so light."
"Lord, can you give me one too? I can use it to pack my cosplay outfits. Then whatever you want me to play, I can play it. Just thinking about it is exciting."
"…"
Ethan did not want to talk to Cook Four and threw a string of iron plate takoyaki at her.
Cook Four was overjoyed, her eyes shining, "Lord, is this your reward to me?"
"No, I just want you to shut up and eat your food."
After Ethan finished arranging the backpacks, Logistics had also finished making twenty seven Premium Dragon Bone Sabers. Apart from Stone Six who had the goblin big cleaver and Ivankov who had a sharp dagger, everyone else had a white Premium Dragon Bone Saber in hand.
Looking at everyone equipping their new gear, Green helmets, white premium bone dragon blades, white advanced backpacks, and each group equipped with two short bows. It already looked very cool, but Ethan still felt like something was missing.
"Don't you guys feel like something is missing?", Ethan rubbed his chin and asked Hunter Five and the others.
The people who had been admiring their dragon bone blades all stopped what they were doing and looked each other over. Then Hunter Five suddenly spoke up, "Reporting to the lord, I think we are missing a set of armor!"
"With our current gear and skills, dealing with monsters is no longer that hard, but our defense is really a bit weak."
"If we get hit by a monster, I'm afraid."
"Very reasonable."
After thinking it over, Ethan started rummaging through his backpack again.
Sure enough, he found a [Dragon Armor Crafting Blueprint], learned it without hesitation, and then Ethan saw the crafting requirements.
[Dragon Armor: Made from the hardest scales on a dragon's body. It can reach the level of being impervious to blades and spears. Ordinary physical attacks are ineffective against dragon armor! Special effect: Areas not covered by dragon armor, Defense +50% (Crafting requirements: Dragon Scale 1296/40, Hemp Thread 482/1 (Water Ghost Green Silk 4268/2), Metal type Beast Core 54/1)]
"Craft 31 sets!"
Why 31 sets?
Doesn't Ethan need one too?
Right now he was only wearing a shabby fine grade armor. If he could upgrade his gear, of course he was going to upgrade it.
