95 The Judgment of the Seven Sons (18)

"It's a good idea, Jazz, but I'm not sure it's going to happen."

……

In a blacksmith shop on Iron Street in King's Landing, a stocky old blacksmith replied thoughtfully after listening to the words of the big blond man opposite.

"I've never heard of this method of casting with fixed accessories on the cuirass, so it needs to be tried."

"Do you have to pay for it?"

"No, Sir, the church has already provided you with the materials and remuneration I need, but if you are in a hurry to use your armor, then I suggest you consider renting a ready-made set from me first. That's right, we have all sorts of armor accessories that are built to match your size. ”

"I'm not in too much of a hurry." Lan Li shook his head when he heard this, but he was actually a little shy.

……

He is now engaged in the "design" of his own armor.

Once he joined the Warrior's Son, he was eligible for standard Order armor, as his height, shoulder width, and head size were measured, and Lan Li had direct access to the smith.

But because there were so many knights in the city lately, the blacksmith was very busy, and it wasn't until now that he could actually start building for him.

Lan Li therefore put forward his own idea, or rather, proposed a kind of equipment that was popular among the knight class in the era more than two hundred years after Westeros - riding gun mounts.

In ancient times, the cavalry spear charge could only clamp the knight's spear with the arm and rely on the arm strength to fix it, but no matter how much the strength of the simple human body was, it would eventually be limited, and the arm would always unconsciously lean back at the moment of collision and then be unloaded with great power.

But if you add this mounted gun carriage and the matching gun ring, then it is not only the arm that holds the mounted gun, but also spreads the anti-collision force to the entire body of the knight, so that the whole person's muscle group can withstand this impact force, not just the arm.

In this way, both the power of the charge and the difficulty of the knight's mastery of the mounted spear are different whispers.

This had been noticed by Lan Li since he was training on the way to King's Landing, and he found that this humble but vital armor accessory did not exist in the current era, so he used it as a great weapon for his victory, or an important way to make up for his shortcomings.

The blacksmith in front of him was very experienced, and he almost guessed the usefulness of this thing when he heard Lan Li's words, but he was also very cautious, although in Lan Li's opinion, this thing was actually easy to build.

Lan Li didn't want to rent the armor, and the stout blacksmith didn't care when he heard this, but said admonishingly, "It may take a little longer, sir, and I'll call my son to inform you when the casting is complete." ”

Lan Li nodded when he heard this, and then said, "I hope Master Dai Rui can keep this a secret." ”

"Of course, I am a believer in God and a very principled person."

Hearing this, the old blacksmith said without hesitation: "It can be seen from the church that the armor is only customized from me. And you know, sir, my son is also the son of a warrior, and we know honor as well. ”

These words made Lan Li stunned, but the other party smiled and shouted at the back room of the blacksmith shop, so a bald man with dark skin who had been baked and darkened came out from behind the blackened curtain in a short time.

"Father, what's the matter?"

"This is Sir Lemon, you come to meet him."

The old blacksmith's words fell, and the bald head looked at Lan Li, and after a moment's look, he couldn't help but smile.

"May the gods bless you, Sir Lemon, I have heard about you."

Am I so famous?

Lan Li was surprised, and the other party explained when he saw this: "I am responsible for guarding the two captives you captured from the riverland, and one of them always says that you are a monster and a human fish. He said all day long, looking crazy. As he spoke, the bald young man grinned.

"I'm curious how you scared him like that."

"Maybe the interrogator on the road used some radical methods." Lan Li replied, and after a few words with the blacksmith's son named Dane, he took his leave.

Armor modification can make up for one of his shortcomings, and daily training can also allow him to continue to grow, but he doesn't have much to say about how to join the inquisition.

Of course, there is also a premise for this, that is, the trial will still happen, and Lan Li is not sure about this, but it is always right to prepare accordingly in advance.

Thinking about this question along the way, it didn't take long for Lan Li to return to the Templar Quarters at the top of Rhaenys Hill.

But when he returned to the house, he found that his little squire was missing.

This made Lan Li stunned, and then turned around and left the house and walked into the alleyway of the house outside.

He had planned to ask if anyone had seen the child nearby, but shortly after he left the door, he suddenly heard something familiar in the other direction.

Lan Li therefore walked forward.

The buildings in the Chapel Quarters are densely packed, with small alleys between the houses and a bit intricate at the same time, but living here for a while has made the complexity much simpler.

As he progressed, the sound became more and more distinct, as if a child was arguing with a woman about something, which made his steps quicken and his mind wondered.

His little squire is usually very "well-behaved", and he understands that he can't run anywhere if he wants to, so it is not necessary to never go out of the house. And even if he goes out and meets people, he looks shy and scared, and he rarely speaks, why does it sound like he is arguing with people now?

Strangely enough, the blonde knight finally turned a corner, and the words of the argument were completely unhindered and became very clear. Just at this moment, a figure suddenly crashed into him, let out a muffled snort, and then rebounded and fell to the ground.

Lan Li looked down, and a white-robed nun with long messy black hair came into view.

"Are you alright?"

He opened his mouth to ask, and the other party happened to raise his eyes at this time, so Lan Li saw a pair of very special eyes.

It was a pair of bright and timid eyes with molten golden iris hidden under the messy black hair.

This unique color made Lan Li's expression slightly stunned, but the other party quickly got up and ran away, without a chance to let him observe more, and even Lan Li was inexplicably regretful.

Then he suddenly saw an onyx-encrusted leaf necklace on the ground where the nun had fallen.

Lan Li frowned when she saw this, and then bent down to pick up the precious necklace while raising her eyes to look at the place where the noise came from in front of her.

In the shadow of the wall, the boy "Aegon", dressed in a coarse cloth suit, was arguing with a middle-aged nun with a nun's scarf on her head.

"Anyway, it's not right for you to slap someone!"

"If you make a mistake, you will be punished, child, this is the rule that the gods have warned us to follow."

"Then tell me what she did wrong, good nun?"

"I can't tell you, kid, which knight's squire you are, and I want to talk to him." As the nun spoke, she saw Lan Li come forward, so she hurriedly asked, "Sir, is this boy your attendant?" ”

Lan Li nodded in response.

"Then you have to discipline him well, impulsiveness is not the quality of a good squire."

"It's obvious that you're beating someone, why do you blame me for being impulsive?"

The boy was stunned and asked, "You bully others, don't you be impulsive when I come to see the fun?" ”

"She's a sinner, child, and you don't understand that you can ask your master."

"Do you all have to make this kind of excuse for bullying people first?" When the bald boy heard this, he hugged his shoulders and pouted: "Before beating someone, tell her that she is a sinner, and then it makes sense to beat someone?" Well, why do you think she's a sinner? I've asked you so many times, but you didn't say it, but now that my master is here, you should say it, right? ”

"I can't tell your master about this, this-"

The middle-aged nun's face was a little red, revealing a touch of embarrassment and helplessness, Lan Li was a little curious when he saw this, but he didn't mean to ask, but patted the boy on the shoulder, and then handed the necklace in his hand to the other party.

Looking sideways at the chain, the bald boy's expression became surprised.

"My necklace?"

He asked as he reached out and touched the mouth of his pocket, only to be empty.

"I was carrying it in my pocket, why did it get into your hands?"

"This is the innocent sinner you speak of." Lan Li said, patting him on the head.

The boy was stunned for a moment, then glanced around, but did not find the black-haired nun who was still here before, so he instantly understood, but he was not angry or ashamed because of this, but was a little dazed.

"I helped her out, why did she steal my necklace?"
