As he inspected, he said:

"Look, the crystal is very pure, indicating the quality is decent, but the crystal clusters are small and scattered. This means the ratio of rough material that can be extracted from each piece of ore won’t be too high. According to the classification of the Brass Dwarves, your mine’s ore could at most receive an above-average evaluation.

Not particularly good.

But it’s a bit better than raw ore from other places on the continent.

However, this doesn’t actually affect the preparation of Feurgold. After hundreds of years of development and iteration, the mining companies of the Brass Dwarves can guarantee the extraction of all high-energy substances from a piece of ore. Hmm, these little darlings could fetch a good price.

Do you need me to help you contact the companies of the Brass Dwarves? They will send people to inspect and discuss contracts with you. In the past, we were responsible for such affairs, but I think I better not meddle in the matters of Transylvania.

There’s something a little off about this land! It’s truly bizarre!"

"Heh, it seems you still have your biases against Transylvania,"

Old Chen chuckled and said:

"However, this is something the Stonemason Association cannot decide on its own; it needs to be coordinated by the administrative office. Personally, I’m more interested in the active principle of this special substance, Feurgold. I cannot understand, why can a substance exhibit reinforcement effects that are completely inconsistent with its physical properties across multiple domains?

Not only can it be used as a combustion enhancer, but it can also be used as a catalyst and a propellant. I also know that in certain psychic rituals, Burning Gold can be used as a core casting material.

Don’t you find this problematic?

It feels like an ’all-purpose material’!

I certainly don’t believe this is a normal substance that nature would produce."

"Indeed, it’s not,"

Dwarf Irich shook his head, enjoying the pleasant feeling of tipsiness. He threw a handful of crispy peanuts into his mouth, crunching them loudly before continuing:

"In the eyes of an Earth Priest, the Burn Gold Mine is a miracle bestowed upon the world by Mother Earth, and thus it was initially discovered, extracted, and utilized by the Dwarves, who invented a dazzling industry based on Feurgold!

However, that’s a matter of belief. A long time ago, the Gaia Temple had dedicated Priests who conducted various experiments on Feurgold.

To this day, we still can’t fathom the source of Feurgold’s universal efficacy, but we are certain that the creation of this ore beneath the ground has not a copper’s worth of relation with Mother Gaia.

Mother Earth doesn’t even like the act of offering Feurgold as tribute. She is more pleased with offerings of other minerals and gemstones.

This means that the birth of Feurgold is due to the influence of other forces.

Once it was proven not to be a creation of Mother Earth, the Earth Priests lost interest in it, and that research was not continued, mainly because there are no Feurgold deposits near Silver Fort, so we couldn’t get enough raw materials for more psychic analysis.

As for the Brass Dwarves...

Sigh, although we belong to the same kin, I still have to be critical in this matter!

Their eyes have been blinded by the huge profits that Feurgold brings. Despite knowing that it is not a creation of Gaia, they still revere it as a sacred object. As a result, they are no longer favored by Mother Earth. Over the past few centuries, the number of Earth Priests born within the Brass Dwarf tribe has been dwindling, while the number of their kin who abandon normal life to become Ironheart Warriors has been increasing.

This proves that the minds of the Brass Dwarves are no longer as pure as the mountains and gems bestowed by Mother Earth,

They’ve been tainted by the greed of the world, becoming more indulgent, more extravagant, and more irritable. They stray further and further from the teachings of the Way of the Earth, and most of the stories about Dwarves being petty, greedy, and bad-tempered have originated from the changes in the Brass Dwarves over these years.

Even the number of Sinful Dwarfs exiled to Sin Castle is increasing year by year, more than five times that of the combined Silver Dwarfs and Frost Dwarfs of the Great Wilderness.

It’s truly distressing."

Irich then tilted his head back and took several deep drinks, wiping his beard and saying:

"We Gaia Priests have always wanted to save the souls of our kin. However, Feurgold and the value it generates are like invisible chains that bind them, continually dragging them deeper into the abyss.

Sigh, let’s get back to the previous topic, about the ’all-purpose nature’ of Feurgold.

Although we have no definitive conclusion, the Half-body Men have never ceased their research on Feurgold.

I heard that the most outstanding mechanic among the Half-body Men, His Excellency Minkus Steam Valve, has published many papers validating his theories.

I haven’t read those complex and obscure papers much, but a few of my Disciples told me that Mr. Minks believes the all-purpose nature of Feurgold does not originate from the substance itself, but rather, it achieves a marvelous harmony with the Spiritual Energy after being processed into a finished product and being used.

Minkus refers to it as a sort of ’energy field’.

Feurgold, in a state of complete combustion, interacts with other substances to form an unusual force field that promotes and accelerates all energy conversion processes occurring within it.

That’s why it can be used both as a combustion enhancer and as a catalyst.

At its core, it’s a special psychic influence!"

The Old Dwarf shrugged his shoulders and addressed the somewhat bewildered Old Chen:

"Neither you nor I are Psychics, so we don’t quite understand His Excellency Minks’ theories, and I believe there’s also a problem with Minkus’ theory, because he himself is not a Psychic either!
