Chapter 171 New Preparation
"Okay, I promised." After Malone figured it out, he replied to the dwarf.
"But...... It's not convenient for me to come forward in this matter. He muttered, "We have just finished a war with the barbarians, and the common people do not have a good impression of the barbarians, and they will not distinguish who is who, and if they appear here, it may even cause chaos!"
"What the barbarians need, you will purchase it on your behalf, and after transporting it back to the north, you will distribute it however you want, and it has nothing to do with me."
"Thank you, Lord!" Goldbeard sincerely thanked him......
The two sides continued to discuss the details, as well as other matters, until two hours later, when the dwarf got up and left.
After the dwarf left, Marlon quietly lowered his head and pondered, wondering if he had missed anything.
It took a while to come back to his senses, and he reached out and picked up the mask of the armor from the table, and looked at it carefully.
The lines of the visor are hard and angular, and it looks imposing.
The thumb rubs against it, and even through a layer of hand armor, you can feel its texture, and the frosting is even more delicate than that made by some industrial equipment in the previous life, and it is completely impossible to see that it is handmade.
Pressing the visor to his face, there was a soft "click" sound, combined with the surrounding helmets, and suddenly became tight, and Ma Long's face was covered.
From head to toe, the whole person is sealed, even the eyes, there are two transparent crystal pieces.
Except for the respiratory tract, there is almost no connection with the outside world.
Standing up, he walked around the tent, adjusting to the feeling of wearing heavy armor.
Suddenly, the Heavenly Sword was in his hand, and a cold light danced with the brush.
Malone felt the changes carefully.
There is indeed an extra layer of estrangement between it and the weapon, and the control is not so fine, which takes a while to get used to.
As for the weight of the armor itself, with Ma Long's physique, it can be completely ignored, and I believe that Chitu will not care.
As soon as the thought moved, the armor on his body suddenly disappeared without a trace, and changed back to what he had worn before.
But he took back the backpack space!
Alternating several times in a row, the armor flickered on the body.
This enables one-click reloading!
Although I have lost some fine control, as long as it takes a certain amount of time, I can practice it back.
What you get is unparalleled defense, and there is an extra layer of life protection!
Shock absorption and damage reduction, but also anti-magic, Malone is very satisfied with this set of armor!
Next, it's time to receive other gifts from the dwarves......
John picked up a longsword from the dwarf, looked at it carefully, and then took a blackstone collar's homegrown longsword from the knight next to him.
The two swords don't look much different, they are both of the same type, and they look simple and elegant.
He exerted his hands hard, and with a crisp sound of "ding", the two swords intersected, and the long sword produced by the black stone collar was suddenly only half cut off.
The tip of the sword fell to the ground with a snap.
"Hiss......" The Blackstone Leader soldiers who were watching around couldn't help but make a cold breath sound, they were indeed shocked!
However, when he thought that he and the others could also be equipped with such a new weapon, his heart suddenly became hot, and his eyes were full of enthusiasm when he looked at the intact long sword in John's hand!
There is no warrior who does not want good equipment!
Ma Long looked at the long sword in John's hand, one was broken and the other was intact, but he frowned lightly and asked, "The gap is so big?" ”
"Mille-feuille!" John sighed: "Among the human beings, there are not ordinary people who can make a hundred steels, and it takes a long time, and it cannot be popularized, and every such weapon is regarded as a family heirloom, and even reluctant to use it, and is put into a secret room."
"And here!" He pointed to the pile of guns and swords in the box and said, "The dwarves give weapons made of mille-feuille steel as gifts!" That's really ...... What a ......."
He didn't know how to describe it.
John's father was a blacksmith, he had been exposed to it since he was a child, and now he is in a high position and has seen the world, he knows what level of human iron-making technology is, so compared to others, he is more shocked!
"How is it, does it have a big impact on combat effectiveness?" Malone asked.
He didn't care about the specific technique or anything, since the dwarf showed it, he would definitely be able to teach.
As for whether he can learn it, it's not up to Malone to decide.
What he really values is the improvement of combat effectiveness with the new equipment.
John shook his head vigorously, sobering himself up from the amazement of his technology, and replied: "It doesn't have much impact on ordinary soldiers, although the long sword is sharp, but to cut off the opponent's weapon, it also requires enough strength, and ordinary people can't meet this requirement."
However, if a knight holds such a weapon, he can pick three at all, and if he wears a full set of equipment, the gap may be even greater! ”
Ma Long imagined the appearance of a hundred knights charging on horseback, the armor on his body was invulnerable, and the weapons in his hands were indestructible, thinking about it was all emotional!
"It seems that we will be able to use troops against other barbarians again in the next year!" He looked up at the sky in the distance and whispered, the entire south of the Gelong River must be occupied......
Malf is returning to Blackstone, where he contacts the other merchants and convinces them to trade with the new stronghold.
There were also hundreds of dwarves who accompanied them, not only to learn the use of the Holy Light, but also to engage in so-called technical exchanges.
It sounds like a technical exchange, but in fact, it is to teach forging technology to humans.
Moussane was also very generous, not only hundreds of skilled blacksmiths, but also a master of silver!
In fact, Malf's task this time is not heavy, the merchant is the most sensitive to interests, as long as these hundreds of dwarves show up in Black Rock City, they don't need him to say anything, naturally someone will come to the door and seek cooperation.
Looking at the crowd that was gradually moving away, Marlon was full of confidence in the future, even if there were orcs, he was not afraid at all!
"My lord, shouldn't we give this place a name, it's this stronghold and that camp every time, it's very inconvenient to say!" Jack found an opportunity to make his own proposal to Malone.
"A name?" Malone looked at the increasingly lively camp, and it was indeed time for a name.
"But what should it be called?" His naming difficulty is committed again, and he doesn't know what to call it for a while?
Camp Rogge? Lu Gaoin? Why don't you just call it Mengzhong?
After thinking about it for a while, I still didn't know which one was better, "What do you think of calling it Tucheng?" He asked Jack beside him.
"Tucheng?" Jack wondered, "Why is it called that, should the city south of us be called Blackstone City?" ”
"Can that be explained?" Ma Long couldn't help but be stunned, "The full name is Mengzhong Earth City!" ”
"Is that to commemorate our official alliance with the Dwarves here?"
"You really know how to relate!" Malone smiled and patted Jack's shoulder and said, "I like you a little." Go, just follow this propaganda, just say it's to commemorate the alliance with the dwarves, and let our allies feel our enthusiasm! ”
"Yes!"
The name of Tucheng was decided in this way, no matter what other people thought, Ma Long was very satisfied anyway!
