Chapter 012: The Mark of Radiance (Revision)
About half a month later, Yang Jiangong's blackmail and blackmail worked. He received an invitation from Edmund, the commander of the Ice Fortress.
After entering the castle, Edmund took Yang Jiangong to a secret warehouse under the castle. "In the personal name of the former Duke, this box, as well as the contents of this underground warehouse, are all given to you."
The box with the seal was opened, and it was full of gold coins, which made people's eyes feel dizzy, and it was conservatively estimated that there were as many as 5,000 pieces. For the royal family, the wealthy Grand Duke, this may have been just a little pocket money temporarily stored in the fortress.
But for the fledgling town of Lorkadin, this was the first accumulation of wealth.
"Very well, thank you for me, Lord Majesty."
Yang Jiangong could probably guess that Edmund, the Silver Dragon Knight, was a close confidant of Bellinger.
His gaze still naturally swept over the gold coins, and Yang Jiangong's attention turned to those more valuable things.
"This ...... It's all Imperial Knight Armor!! When Bahrain saw the contents of the warehouse, he saw that his face was flushed, his brows were twisted into pimples, and even the green tendons on his arms could be seen clearly.
In this world, when it comes to forging weapons and armor, as long as it comes from the hands of dwarves, it is often priceless. The dwarves were once the foundry craftsmen of the Lorkadan Empire, and the emblem on the armor of these knights was a glorious insignia.
So far, even Yang Jiangong has admired the casting skills of the dwarves. At the same time, he also knew very well that the human casting guild would never reach the level of dwarves.
The brackets in front of him are all made of high-quality steel plate pressing, and the columns are 6 meters high and there are no seams in the middle. Features: Large load-bearing capacity, not easy to deform.
More than three thousand sets of knights' armor were laid out on rows of heavy stands, covered with dust, apparently stored for a long time.
And around this warehouse, there are also dusty but still not rusty horse armor and heavy swords on display.
It doesn't matter where Behringer got this armor from.
Importantly, it once belonged to the Empire of Lol Cardin, and today it is considered to have been returned to its rightful owner. Being able to equip three thousand Silver Dragon Knights or Golden Dragon Knights is a terrifying asset, even though so far, only the Patriarch Balin has the strength of a Silver Dragon Knight.
………………
The armor is magnificent, and the style of these exquisite armors, battle helmets and armor is very similar to the ring armor of the ancient Roman legion in Yang Jiangong's impression, which enlarges the small armor leaves of the scale armor into large arc-shaped armor pieces, which are closely connected layer by layer.
It's just that although it looks about the same style, but the weight and texture are not the same as the impression of the Roman ring armor. In addition, this ring armor also has knee pads and leg guards, combat boots, and a heavy battle skirt with split front and back.
"Very good!"
Yang Jiangong only tried it with his own sword, and he knew that the defensive power of these ring armor was definitely superior to that of scale armor, chain mail and chain mail.
With such a fine imperial armor, it is not necessary for the Camelette Kingdom to seal it, except that the glorious mark belonging to the Lorkadan Empire on the armor is a problem for the five kingdoms, and Yang Jiangong concluded that these equipment are likely to be in Behringer's private possession.
In addition to the fact that the Lol Cardin Empire had such a handicraft in the past, the main reason why humans can no longer forge this kind of armor is that the cost is too high and the manufacturing process is too complicated.
Looking at the entire continent, only dwarves can forge the finest quality and almost zero maintenance ring armor.
"Let's do it, Bahrain, move here."
Yang Jiangong wanted to know how much armor from the hands of dwarves weighed?
When you have a knight class in Bahrain, try on a pair of armor on the spot. He said that the heavy armor plates on his shoulders and back weighed down his neck sore, and that the weight of his elbows and the bezels of his dress made him feel tired when he moved.
"The armor and helmets alone weigh nearly a hundred pounds. Such a negative gravity is simply unimaginable for ordinary people unless they are knight professionals. Yang Jiangong thought so in his heart.
If it were a skilled caster or blacksmith, Yang Jiangong thought that they would use their own experience to analyze the quality of each curved piece of armor, each group of decorations, and each piece of pad of this armor, and their statistics would be accurate and comprehensive, and the specific protective power of the armor would be more accurate.
――――――――――
What do you want to do with 5,000 gold coins?
Yang Jiangong only bought bread from the market guild that could support the town of Lorkadan for half a year, as well as livestock and seeds for farming, and the 5,000 gold coins were basically used up.
As the saying goes, if you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are. If you are not a lord, you will never know what it feels like to spend money like water.
Yang Jiangong finally found that if he wanted to pay off the arrears of the construction guild, it was not as simple as he imagined. Or it is impossible to train and maintain an army by simply cultivating and feeding livestock.
"Bahrain, assemble all our swordsmen. It's time to retrieve the Radiant Crystal Ball from the ogre's grasp. ”
Yang Jiangong gave the order two months after completing the preparations.
When all the existing swordsmen in the town of Lol Cardin had been assembled, a loud voice resounded through a small piece of the sky overhead.
"Salute to my king!"
A neat formation, a mighty posture. Although Loel Cardin has only 100 Glorious Swordsmen.
Look at the scene in front of you, and accept the gaze of every glorious swordsman.
Yang Jiangong's expression and his pace made many Loer Cardan people have a feeling of blood boiling.
"Loyalty and courage are our rules! Die in battle, throw your blood, and glorify my body! Glory Lore Cardin!! ”
100 Lol Cardin Radiant Swordsmen are armed with helmets, chain mail, and a scarlet cape. They are all the most elite leaders, and their roars are more like the unbearable thirst for battle of a male lion.
"Let's go."
Yang Jiangong took out the sword of Maiya and gave instructions to the Radiant Swordsman.
But at this time.
"My king, please wait."
Catherine fetches a cloak for Yang Jiangong.
She put it on for Yang Jiangong with her own hands, and skillfully knotted the two thin bands at the top of the cloak.
At this time, Catherine's body leaned forward slightly, and at the moment of contact, Yang Jiangong could feel that her body exuded a familiar and gentle aura.
Catherine is 14 years old this year, just 1.6 meters tall, except for fair skin, and a light figure. The most striking thing is that she has round eyes, as well as a delicate nose and cheeks.
In addition, her fingers were very soft and flexible, and after tying the knots, she sorted out Yang Jiangong's coat and high collar at a very fast speed.
The angle of the curtain is the cornerstone of capturing all the beautiful moments.
Catherine's pretentious expression, at such a distance, made her red lips more radiant than any beautiful color smear.
With her slight movements, the sleeves fanned the air in front of her, which made Yang Jiangong's nose expand slightly, unlike ordinary women, Catherine's body could not smell the strong pollen fragrance, and some were just a faint girlish body fragrance.
Carefully smooth out every wrinkle on the cape. As if sensing something, Catherine's focused gaze inadvertently met Yang Jiangong's eyes, and then froze.
With eyes met, Catherine's pupils were like inquiry, like concern, like greeting, more like a transient disorientation......
For nearly a year, Catherine took care of Yang Jiangong's daily life. During this period of time, a tacit understanding has been formed. Let Yang Jiangong's every movement, and every look, be able to make Catherine respond, even if it is ...... A moment when male hormones are at work.
"Thank you, Catherine." Treat a lady politely and do not conflict with Yang Jiangong's identity.
And Yang Jiangong believes that it is necessary to diverge from this delicate moment.
As the woman who awakened the Radiant Emperor, she was nominally the wife of the Radiant God, so she should have the duty of a bedchamber.
Although Yang Jiangong knew that Catherine would respond to all his requests, no one would object to this. But thinking that Catherine was only thirteen or fourteen years old, he couldn't get past himself for the time being.
"My king, Achilles also wants to fight."
Yang Jiangong smiled, reached out and touched his little head as Achilles, "It will definitely be, when you grow up." ”
