Chapter 165: Uninvited Guest
Valesian steel is a mysterious alloy invented by the Children of the Forest, which is lightweight, tough, heavy and does not rust, curl and break, making it the best material for making weapons.
Weapons made of Valesian steel can easily cut through stainless steel, and have few drawbacks other than a slight weakness that is slightly inferior to adamantite gold. After being tempered tens of thousands of times by highly skilled craftsmen, the surface of the Valesian steel will appear like water waves, and it has an unparalleled affinity for the fighting spirit, which can greatly increase the power of the knight's fighting spirit. It is the most coveted weapon of knights.
Legend has it that the finest Valesian steel is forged with dragon flame, and dragon bones are added to the forging process, mixed with spells and magic, to create dragon steel metal that flows with unparalleled dragon magic. And the most amazing thing is that the dragon steel weapon can be fused by the flesh of the dragon and the dragon veiner, regarded as a part of the body, nourished and tempered with blood and magic power.
It is said that at the end of the Dark Age, the sages of mankind invented the forging method of dragon steel, and used it as a material to forge seven divine weapons, plus the power of the seven dragon warriors gathered, they joined forces to defeat the Night Demon King who ruled the continent and ended the Dark Age.
Karl is also a dragon vein knight, so he naturally yearns for that kind of powerful dragon steel divine soldier. It's just a pity that since the destruction of the Magic Empire of Gulosta, the forging methods of dragon steel and Valesian steel have all been lost. All the Valesian steel that exists is just a stock left over from the Ancient Magic Empire, and it is very precious to use a little less.
Most of the existing Valesian steel weapons exist in those ancient aristocratic families, each with its own name and story, flowing with legends.
As far as Karl knows, the treasure of the Roland family, the epic divine soldier Youlandel, who has titles such as "Immortal Blade", "Eternal Sword", "Sword of Broken Stone", etc., is a dragon steel weapon with holy dragon crystals inlaid with holy dragon crystals on the hilt, the sword blade hiding the teeth of the holy dragon, the sword body flowing with the blood of the holy dragon, the sword spine fused with the bones of the holy dragon, and the sword jaw engraved with the dragon steel weapon with the reverse scales of the holy dragon.
This sword is famous all over the world along with the legendary story of the paladin Roland, because it was not damaged in the face of the siege of thousands of divine soldiers in the "Hall of the World", and won the title of "Immortal Blade" and "Eternal Sword", and because of the Paladin Roland, with its flawless virtue, he used this sword to cut off the "Stone of Bahamut", which has the title of "Cornerstone of the World", and lifted the curse of the evil god that has been wrapped around the dragon warrior for countless years, and obtained the "Sword of Broken Stone" and "Sword of Cause and Effect , ranked 22nd on the list of epic divine weapons of mankind, and 8th among the top ten divine swords.
"Uncle John, who are you going to ask to help rescue Levi?"
Although he didn't understand what secret deal Levi had with Uncle John, it could be seen that Levi's final offer was very attractive to Uncle John, so that although he was afraid of the strength of the female knight and the neutral status of the mercenary, he could not directly block it, but he could summon people to save Levi in the name of issuing a mission.
"Let's not talk about the strength of this female knight, that is, the two Valesian steel swords are a big trouble, and ordinary steel weapons meet Valesian steel swords, and they are almost cut in two. ”
"I understand!"
Uncle John nodded and said, "Only weapons mixed with adamantite or magic weapons that have been specially enchanted and strengthened can withstand the Valesian steel sword slash!"
"Uncle John, do you have a Adamantite weapon and a magic weapon in your hand?"
Carl couldn't help but be curious, reality is not a game world, adamantite weapons and magic weapons are not rotten street stalls, the price of the worst magic weapons is also a few hundred gold tales, not to mention weapons that can resist the Valesian steel sword, in addition to those long-established families, only the really wealthy big chambers of commerce and big forces are equipped.
Uncle John glanced at Carl, shook his head, and didn't answer directly, but said, "If you are willing to participate in this mission, you will have a chance to know the answer!"
"Forget it!"
Carl decisively refused, and took the initiative to find a strong knight who was not easy to mess with at first glance to fight to the death, which was not in line with his safety-first character.
"By the way, Uncle John, is there any news of little Lucy? Yesterday she said that she was going to patrol with Captain Galen, and she hasn't come back this morning, has something happened?"
Carl remembered the purpose of his visit to the tavern, and couldn't help but ask about little Lucy.
"Little Lucy?"
Uncle John thought for a while, nodded and said, "There is news, last night little Lucy asked someone to leave a message, let me tell you that she is following Captain Galen to track the traces of a group of cultists, and it may be busy for several days, so you don't have to worry about her." ”
"Found the cultist's trail so quickly?"
Carl couldn't help but be a little surprised, thinking of the mysterious person who appeared last to appear that night, Carl couldn't help but be a little worried about the safety of little Lucy, wondering, after breakfast, whether to go to the Silver Dawn's station to have a look, or simply join Captain Galen's patrol, and it would be better to investigate with Little Lucy - as for his own private investigation, Carl didn't think about it at all, reality is not, there is no protagonist halo in his body, and secretly investigating this kind of thing is definitely how fast it will be to die.
After eating his share of breakfast, Carl turned to leave, but was suddenly stopped by Uncle John.
Uncle John hesitated, but said to Karl: "That Brienne from Bohemia is likely to be a Bronze Knight, and if you want to rescue Mr. Levi from her, you need at least four Black Iron Knights who are close to the Bronze Rank." Carl, I know that you have the crown bloodline of the sea dragon, and you can easily defeat Crassus, who only needs to comprehend the knight's combat skills to advance to the black iron knight, and you must also be a powerful knight. If you'd like, I'd love to hear you join us on this mission. ”
Seeing Uncle John's formal request, Carl couldn't help but hesitate. According to his personality, he is not willing to provoke enemies for no reason, especially a knight who does not seem to be easy to mess with. After all, fighting is not a game, and it is your own life that you accidentally lose.
However, Uncle John was really good to him, and he relied on Uncle John's help to overcome his initial predicament, and he was not too embarrassed to refuse Uncle John's request. Moreover, after having just completed the magic of the "Knight Mark" and obtained a power comparable to that of a regular knight, he couldn't help but have a feeling of eagerness to try, and he really wanted to find an opponent to test his newly acquired power and see what level his power was in this world.
And just as Carl hesitated, the door of Uncle John's tavern was once again violently slammed open, and two masked, heavily armed church knights burst in.
