    Chapter 69: Plague

    In the study.

    Su Nan put down the book in his hand and nodded slightly.

    “Not bad, all three of you have passed.”

    As soon as these words were spoken, Xie Man, Corey, and Atier, who were standing in front of the desk, all breathed a sigh of relief.

    “This is your reward.”

    Su Nan waved his hand, and three bottles of Lower-Grade Revitalization Potion floated in front of the three.

    “This is Lower-Grade Revitalization Potion. It can increase your spiritual activity, improve your meditation efficiency and learning ability. One bottle can last for a month.”

    Xie Man and the others were overjoyed when they heard this, their eyes gleaming as they looked at the potion in their hands.

    According to the descriptions in the books, real wizard potions, even if they were only zero-order potions, had powerful effects beyond ordinary people’s imagination.

    Not to mention a potion that enhanced meditation efficiency, which was also very precious to wizard apprentices.

    “Keep working hard. If you can pass the knowledge exam next month, there will be more rewards.”

    After encouraging them, Su Nan waved his hand and let the three leave.

    “The learning progress of these three little guys is pretty good.”

    “Especially Xie Man. I originally thought that because of his background, his learning ability would be weaker than the other two. But he hasn’t fallen behind at all. It seems that the little guy is worth cultivating.”

    A hint of a smile appeared on Su Nan’s face.

    At this rate, in about half a year, the three little guys should be able to take on some of the base’s work.

    Leaving the courtyard, Su Nan went straight to the training ground.

    As expected, Kei was training on the training ground.

    Bred and Jorton were also there.

    Out of consideration for stabilizing his strength, and because the Lower-Grade Dragon Blood Potion needed to be supplied to the Blackrock Cavalry Regiment, Kei hadn’t asked Su Nan to make Dragon Blood Potion for him in the past half year.

    Therefore, he was still a junior Great Knight, and there was no sign of him breaking through yet.

    However, a junior Great Knight at the age of twenty-one was considered quite outstanding in any country.

    Bredon and Jorton had each taken a Dragon Blood Potion.

    The former had already shown signs of breaking through to becoming a Great Knight.

    The latter had just broken through to become a peak knight three months ago.

    Noticing Su Nan’s arrival, Kei immediately stopped training, took a towel from a servant and wiped his sweat, and smiled, “Why are you free today?”

    “I have something for you.”

    Seeing this, Su Nan threw them each a magical weapon.

    Bred’s was a shield that solidified [Black Steel] and [Energy Accumulation], extremely hard, and could also enhance the power of martial energy.

    Jorton’s was a long sword that solidified [Sharpness] and [Weak Fire Element Damage].

    After receiving their magical weapons, Bred and Jorton were immediately overjoyed and thanked Su Nan repeatedly.

    “Can this kind of weapon be mass-produced?” Kei asked excitedly.

    Su Nan shook his head slightly, “Not the kind you have. However, slightly inferior ones, magical weapons that only solidify one property, can barely be mass-produced.”

    “What about the cost?” Kei asked immediately.

    He was most sensitive to this right now.

    Shining Light Territory needed to expand its military equipment while also supporting Su Nan in building the base, and the economic pressure was still immense.

    “About twenty gold coins each.” Su Nan said.

    This was because the magic stones were synthesized by him, and the cost was extremely low.

    Otherwise, according to the market value (if there was one), the cost of a magical weapon would be at least eighty gold coins.

    Kei breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

    Alright, twenty gold coins wasn’t too much.

    An ordinary fine steel long sword cost three or four gold coins, and magical weapons were much stronger than ordinary weapons, so it was reasonable for the price to be a few times higher.

    That being said, to equip all the knights in the territory with a magical weapon would still cost at least several thousand gold coins, another huge expenditure.

    Kei looked at the weapon in his hand and began to think about whether he could open up a new trade route using it.

    Seeing his change in expression, Su Nan immediately guessed his intentions and poured cold water on him, “Forget about selling it outside. I don’t have that much time to spend making magical weapons.”

    Kei was a little disappointed, but he also understood what Su Nan meant.

    It would be too much of a waste to have a wizard apprentice act as a blacksmith.

    After thinking for a while, he decided to equip the knights in the territory with a magical weapon each.

    Su Nan nodded in agreement and gave Kei the magical weapons he had made during this period, including the failed ones, for him to distribute.

    With everything settled, Su Nan was about to leave when he saw Kei’s secretary rushing into the training ground, handing Kei a scroll of parchment.

    The latter opened it and his brow furrowed immediately.

    “What happened?” Su Nan stopped and asked.

    Kei took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

    “There is a plague outbreak in Frost Province.”
