The more they saw of the people hunting outside the walls, the more the Lords and their entourage felt various emotions.

Not counting the person in front of them (Ryo) and the aborigines, most of these people arrived on this continent at the same time as they did. They were not only much stronger, but their equipment was far superior.

Somewhere at the side, they could hear a few groans of longing and gasps. "Those were Class D weapons made of iron, right? All of the fighters had it!"

"No, some of them—they’re in uniform, so they’re probably guards—have steel! I worked with the materials back in Terran, I know what I’m seeing!!"

Iron and steel? While they were still using bone weapons? "Shit."

Some of their Center hires had Class D weapons, and they saw that they were just iron, confirming that iron was the black metal that the aborigines were talking about.

Most of them possessed upgraded their weapons stores, but they were only able to produce more weapons instead of producing higher quality things, simply because they had yet to supply them with raw materials.

For the stores to create the products, they simply had to place the raw materials in the System Warehouse. But...what raw materials?!

Access to the material varied per region. Some hires were from the Western part of the human territory seemed to have an abundance of it. The rest had varying supplies of it.

Even if they had mines nearby, they hadn’t found them yet, nor would they have enough resources to actually harvest the metals. Just handling the mobs that they’d encounter while mining was troublesome, and it wasn’t like they could build another territory over it.

All this time, most of them survived with bone swords that their Class E weaponsmiths made (some aborigines and some were Terran), as well as the wooden weapons created by the Weapons Store. The durability was very low, and they had to change weapons every few days, however.

There were also a few hires who had extra weapons in their spaces, selling their extra weapons for several gold—which was many folds above the market price, but what could they do?

There were also a handful of people who created something and were rewarded with Class D or even Class C weapons, but those were extremely rare and treasured.
