Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Magic Marrow Factory

As the day to purge the bandits drew closer, Louis, accompanied by a few knights, carried two heavy chests, heading straight towards the Magic Marrow Factory, also an Alchemy Workshop, near the mine.This factory was built by Hillco along with three newly arrived alchemy apprentices.Lord, you're just in time," Hillco lazily leaned against a wooden pillar,With the increase in talents at Red Tide Territory, he no longer had to be as busy, looking a bit more spirited than before, though still appearing languid."The first batch of magic marrow has just been completed."Hearing this, Louis's interest was piqued instantly, his gaze falling on a heavy wooden barrel.The barrel was filled with deep purple powder, its sheen subtly shimmering, looking delicate and smooth, faintly exuding a magical aura.Louis reached out to grab a bit, feeling an extremely smooth touch at his fingertips, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Is this the magic marrow?""That's right," Hillco patted the wooden barrel, "This barrel alone is worth at least fifty gold coins in the market."Louis's eyes showed a slight change.Fifty gold coins, this is no small amount, enough to buy a hundred slaves or sustain two official knights for a year.And this was just the outcome of small-scale trials.Thinking about the vast magic marrow mine in his territory, Louis's excitement grew more intense.But at the same time, he was also aware that to truly achieve large-scale production, many challenges still needed to be overcome.The mining of the magic marrow ore itself was fraught with risk, with even slight carelessness potentially causing collapses.Furthermore, their current equipment and manpower were far from sufficient.This barrel of magic marrow represented the entire week's production."Well done,"Louis immediately took out twenty gold coins and handed them to Hillco, also giving each of the three alchemy apprentices ten gold coins.Upon receiving the gold coins, the few of them were momentarily stunned, followed by full excitement. For them, this was a considerable amount of money, and they all expressed their gratitude to Louis."Thank you, Lord!"But a moment later, one of the apprentices muttered quietly, "But in this place, where can we spend the gold coins?"The people around fell silent for a moment, but then couldn't help but laugh.After the laughter, Louis began to discuss business with Hillco.He patted the wooden barrel and directly asked, "Hillco, can this stuff be used to make Demonic Flame Bullets?"Hearing this question, Hillco furrowed his brows slightly, and after pondering for a moment, he replied:"The key materials for the Demonic Flame Bullet aren't just magic marrow, they also require ignition cores and other materials. Currently, Red Tide Territory doesn't have any of these materials.""Is that so."
