...

In the wooden cabin, the flames in the fireplace crackled and burned.

"Your idea is correct."

After hearing Rein's description, Luo De nodded in agreement,

"It's not some kind of Holy Light, it's just the magma from the volcano."

"Oh oh oh."

Rein nodded blankly and cautiously asked,

"What's magma, Lord sir?"

Luo De was silent for a moment, fiddling with the Extraordinary Gem in his hand, then explained,

"Magma is melted rock from deep underground."

Luo De organized his thoughts, "The temperature is extremely high and can melt all sorts of things."

"The pungent smell you encountered is sulfur."

"And the water you drank, it should be thermal spring water."

"All caused by the high temperatures underground."

Rein nodded, somewhat half-understanding.

Luo De knew he might not be entirely clear, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"If you're interested, you can ask Avril to look up some information."

"Have her find some books to explain it to you."

"Never mind, it's okay."

Rein leaned back slightly and quickly waved his hand,

"I just need a rough understanding."

"Better not bother Miss Avril."

Luo De didn't say much more and changed the subject, asking Rein,

"Was the gem on that hammer easily removed?"

Luo De confirmed each word, "I mean, was it an ordinary stone hammer? Nothing special?"

"No, Lord sir."

Rein shook his head, still carrying the dust from his journey.

"The material of that stone hammer looked like ordinary stone, nothing special."

"I also checked around, and there wasn't anything special."

Rein thought for a moment and added, "I didn't go near the Magma Pool…"

"The smell was unbearable, and it was too hot; I didn't approach."

"That's normal."

Luo De nodded and didn't blame Rein, "Ordinary people can't get close to the Magma Pool."

"To be honest, I'm surprised those Yak People can live in the Magma Cave and don't mind the smell of sulfur."

The Yak People have such thick fur and aren't afraid of the heat?

Luo De thought their bodies probably had a high flame affinity.

"Alright then."

Luo De nodded and sat up straight again.

He was a bit interested in this holy land of the Yak People.

Whether or not there are special items or historical traces, Luo De was interested, simply due to the magma and sulfur.

Magma can smelt many refractory metals, and sulfur has even more uses.

Its basic uses include strong sterilization, insect deterrent, and anti-corrosion functions.

But right now, preparation for spring plowing is needed, and there are many tasks to handle.

The fields outside the window are waiting to be sown, and the busy farming season is about to start.

Moreover, being unfamiliar with the situation there, it isn't feasible to take a large army on an excursion.

Luo De didn't want to proceed rashly.

"By the way,"

Luo De suddenly remembered a detail and asked, "Where do those Yak People get their ore from?"

"Ah, sorry, Lord,"

Rein hesitated, looking troubled, "I didn't pay attention to that…"

"That's alright, I will ask them when those Yak People arrive."

Luo De was not in a rush.

Even if there's an iron deposit there, there's no capacity to develop it now.

Rein nodded, looking somewhat hesitant, his gaze lingering on the gem in Luo De's hand.

Changing the subject, Rein asked, "Lord, you mentioned that this gem isn't just an Extraordinary Gem but might also be a magic item?"

"Does that mean it's very precious?"

Luo De nodded, squeezing the gem, and praised Rein, "You did very well this time."

"Whatever you need or want as a reward, just tell me."

"Thank you for your generosity, Lord. I currently lack nothing."

Rein lowered his head, looking a bit awkward, with a somewhat fawning smile on his face,

"No need to worry too much about me."

"I did promise those Yak People in Altai, to give them a reward."

"May I ask you to..."

"No problem."

Luo De interrupted him and agreed without hesitation,

"When their people arrive, I will make arrangements for them, you can be assured."

"I will speak with their leader Bain and all the Yak People."

"Whatever they want, I will try my best to meet."

Rein had rushed back ahead of time with a few companions.

The Yak People were still slowly making their way along the mountain road.

Luo De looked at Rein seriously, "But the rewards for them won't affect your reward, you can have whatever you wish."

"Thank you for your generosity!"

Rein beamed and couldn't help scratching his head like Gang Le, thinking deeply.

After joining Frost Leaf Town, both he and his wife received much attention; they had more work points than they could use.

Unlike Gang Le, who loved drinking and keeping mistresses, he truly didn't have anything he particularly wanted.

To make a large bow?

The Lord did not restrict materials, he could apply and the Lord would provide.

Moreover, his strength was limited, unable to pull a stronger bow.

After pondering for a while, Rein said a bit embarrassedly,

"I heard that the Sea Pattern Magic Iron you obtained is exceptionally hard. If it's convenient, I'd like to ask you to make some arrowheads with it as a reward…"

"Still not enough Armor-Piercing Arrows?"

Luo De joked and smiled, nodding, "Sure, I'll find the time to forge them for you when I return."

Rein's face lit up with joy upon Luo De's promise.

"Thank you for your generosity, Lord."

"It's what you deserve."

Luo De squeezed the Extraordinary Gem in his hand, imagining the scene Rein had described.

Rein spoke of it lightly, but facing so many strong Yak People and forcibly taking their holy item, wasn't an easy task.
