After Maxing out all Classes

Chapter 806: The first piece of Saronite armor.

"Ten... 10,000?" The two chiefs were dumbfounded, and the eagle warriors who came with them were also wide-eyed in astonishment.

Robb tossed a Blessing of the King to Elsie and smiled, "Go back to Westwind City and bring over a cannon for our Mayan friends to see."

Elsie happily entered the portal and soon emerged carrying a cannon. He placed the heavy barrel in front of the two Maya chiefs. "Take a look."

The two chiefs and the group of eagle warriors crouched down, surrounding the cannon. They examined it from left to right, even reaching out to touch it. Then, the expressions on their faces turned dark.

"It's all iron!"

"This is terrifying."

"If we use this to make spears, how many can we produce?"

"No, we can't afford this."

"Even if we put forth all our cocoa beans, we still can't exchange them for a cannon."

"But as you can see, the warships of Norma have dozens of these cannons. If we only have one, we're no match for them."

Robb chuckled as he recounted their conversation, "These natives really crack me up."

But Robb didn't laugh!

When he first arrived in this world, the people of Westwind Town were just as poor and pathetic. But with proper guidance and assistance, they became wealthy beyond measure.

The two chiefs bowed to Robb, "Great Godfather, please tell us what to do to resist the invasion of the Norma villains."

"Well..." Robb pondered, "The disparity in basic knowledge is too vast. I can assure you that for a long time, many Mayans on the Maya continent will suffer merciless enslavement and slaughter at the hands of the Norma people. It will be difficult for you to confront them directly. You can only buy time and space to create opportunities for development by constantly learning and catching up, relying on numerical advantage to stabilize the situation."

Everyone fell silent.

"In the short term, the most important thing for you to do is to improve your basic productivity," Robb said. "Once your productivity increases, you'll have enough resources to exchange for weapons with me. At least then, in the process of fighting against the Norma, you won't be at such a disadvantage."

The two chiefs asked, "How can we improve our basic productivity?"

"Um, first..." Robb considered the question seriously, "First, you need to generate a large amount of money to arm yourselves. So, you need to focus on quick ways to make money. In that regard, my suggestion is to start with cocoa beans. Cocoa beans are relatively valuable here, so you should collect them in large quantities and use them to exchange for the first batch of weapons with me."

"Next, cocoa beans are not always readily available. If you rely solely on nature, you'll never escape poverty. You need to research long-term, stable, and sustainable methods of obtaining cocoa beans..."

At this point, Robb smiled, "Grow and cultivate cocoa beans yourselves! Build a large plantation and transplant or cultivate wild cocoa trees there."

The two chiefs nodded, accepting the advice.

"In this process of pursuing short-term gains, you also need to focus on learning. That will help bridge the gap between you and the enemy. I'm more than happy to lend a hand. In my city, I have a technical school where you can send some young people to learn. They can bring back knowledge that will benefit your people."

"But learning is not free. I hope you can send a wise sage who possesses extensive knowledge to my school. Teach my students your mastered sorcery and Mayan wisdom. In exchange, I will continue to support your growth with resources and help you resist the Norma invasion."

The two chiefs thanked Robb sincerely for his guidance and promised to follow his advice to improve their people's basic productivity and strive for a better future.

The two chiefs didn't have much concept of learning, but they had a sense of blind obedience to Robb. After all, their culture revered the strong, and witnessing Robb defeat a giant mammoth had already instilled limitless admiration in them. Moreover, his demeanor was friendly, making them unable to resist the urge to follow him.

The two chiefs sent people back and brought a few "smart" boys from their villages. They also brought an old sorcerer and an old eagle warrior. The old sorcerer was knowledgeable in the cultivation and planting of several plants such as sweet potatoes, tomatoes, and cocoa trees. He was also skilled in the unique Mayan sorcery. Although the old eagle warrior was aged and not as physically strong as the young ones, he had once been a powerful eagle warrior and was suitable to be a trainer.

This was probably the world's first batch of international exchange students!

After arranging this matter and bidding farewell to the Mayan people, Robb finally had some free time. He placed the recently mined Saronite ingots in front of him.

Mining in the real world was comfortable. You didn't even need to move; you could sit in one place and dig up a pile of good ores. This was impossible in the game world.

So, what should he do with these Saronite ingots first?

Turning his head, Robb happened to see Kante emerge from the transmission gate. He was greatly surprised, "Kante, weren't you at Crystal Canyon?"

Kante chuckled, "I'm on vacation, so I took the train back to Westwind City. I heard that Godfather is developing a new continent, and I got interested. Sneaked over to take a look, it's so fun to explore the world with Godfather."

Robb asked, "Isn't Baron Nuolun worried about you traveling so far?"

Kante laughed, "With Godfather overseeing things here, there's nothing to worry about. My uncle also asked me to come and gain some experience and see the vast world."

That made sense. It's better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. Baron Nuolun had high hopes for this illegitimate child and wanted him to broaden his horizons.

Robb glanced at Kante's full gear and thought, [This guy is an important team member I reserved for helping me fight the Black Dragon. He definitely can't participate in the Black Dragon fight with this gear. Well, let's craft the first piece of Saronite gear for him.]

He beckoned Kante over and said, "Come here, I'll make something for you to play with."

Kante was surprised, "What kind of good thing?"

Robb took out fourteen Saronite ingots and piled them together. Then, he extended his hand and began rubbing them. After a long and tedious 5-second channeling, the fourteen Saronite ingots fused together with a "snap" sound, forming a tower shield radiating an eerie glow, the Saronite Shield!
