Seeing the iron rod blooming with a dazzling light in Li Xiang's hand, everyone was stunned! After the camouflage on the surface of the iron rod was completely shattered, a two-handed sword with a gorgeous shape that could be said to be extravagant appeared in front of everyone.

The girl could not resist the temptation of beautiful things, and Alice came up to her with her eyes shining and exclaimed, "I know, I know!" How can magic be so simple? This is what an artifact should look like! Your Highness, try it out, just how powerful this sword really is! ”

Li Xiang slashed out with a sword in his hand, even if he didn't infuse the fighting qi, a fiery red sword qi more than three meters long emitted from the sword, slashing the hill in the courtyard of Balu that was piled up with iron to the end. Balu hurriedly grabbed a piece of iron that had been cut, and found that the section was uneven, as if it had been burned by fire and cooled!

Alice exclaimed, "It's amazing! With such a sharp sword, I'm afraid that even ordinary artifacts can't stop it, right? ”

Chris also said: "That's true, I've heard of several artifacts, which seem to be used for large-scale attacks, and they are very suitable for dealing with the army, even if it is a seventh-level master, as long as he holds an artifact, he can be worthy of a ninth-level master." But if it is in the hands of a ninth-level master, it is far inferior to a demigod. This sword is different, its attack area is not so large, but it is very concentrated, if it really falls into the hands of a ninth-level master, it may really be able to compete with the demigods! ”

Li Xiang smiled slightly, threw it to Lorenzo casually, and said, "Then this sword will be handed over to you to use, I hope you don't let it down." ”

Although Lorenzo was controlled by Li Xiang and surrendered, he did not lose his own sanity, and of course he understood the value of this artifact. Now that Li Xiang actually gave him this sword, he hurriedly thanked him excitedly and swore to be loyal to Li Xiang forever.

Seeing that Li Xiang gave the artifact to his subordinates so generously, Alice couldn't help but smack her lips and said: "Your Highness is really generous, the artifact in your hand is said to be given away, and she has no nostalgia." Now I believe that you will be able to achieve great things, you are born to be a hero! ”

Li Xiang glanced at her and said, "Are you praising me or scolding me?" Stop talking nonsense, get my hands bandaged, or my blood will run dry. ”

Alice then remembered, and hurriedly tore a piece of cloth from Chris's clothes and bandaged Li Xiang's wound. Li Xiang stretched out his hand to let her bandage it, and said to Balu: "I want this sword, I heard Alice say, just promise to help you do one thing, now you can say it." ”

Seeing that the artifact had really found its owner, Balu was also a little excited, bowed deeply to Li Xiang, and said, "It turns out that you are His Royal Highness the Prince, Balu is rude." My business is a big problem for me, but it's nothing to you. ”

It turns out that Balu comes from a small dwarven tribe and left the tribe when he was young, but he has always kept in touch with the tribe. It wasn't until more than ten years ago that the Balu tribe dug up all the mineral deposits in the place where they used to live and decided to live in another place, and found an unknown hill. Beneath this hill, there is a vein of star iron, enough for them to dig for decades.

Star Iron is actually not too precious, although the weapons made from it are sharper and stronger, but Star Iron is not very rare in the Magic Continent, and its value is only twice as expensive as ordinary steel. Of course, it is difficult to equip all the standard weapons of the army, but for the same large number of mercenaries, but all the weapons are equipped by themselves, such a small amount of money is nothing. If you have a good weapon, you will often save your life at the moment of life and death, what is twice as expensive?

Since Xingchen Iron is not a very cherished mineral deposit, naturally few people covet it, but what I didn't expect was that as the mine cavern was dug deeper and deeper, under Xingchen Iron, another Mithril mine was discovered! Compared to Star Iron, Mithril is too precious, and its value is a hundred times and a thousand times that of Star Iron!

Mithril is widely used in the magic continent, and other metals are sluggish to magic, but Mithril is very friendly to magic, so all magic weapons must use Mithril to outline the magic array, otherwise it is impossible for metal weapons to release magic.

Not only magic weapons, but also in other magical studies, Mithril is an extremely important material. Wherever a sturdy magic circle is needed, the materials used to outline the magic circle, Mithril must be the first choice.

Mithril consumes a lot, but it produces very little. The Mithril ore on the Magic Continent is very rare, and even if you finally find one, you can't refine much. Therefore, the discovery of any Mithril mine will cause a dragon fight, and it will only stop when it falls into the hands of the most powerful people. The Balu tribe unfortunately discovered one, and it was even more unfortunate that it was known to outsiders, so it caused a catastrophe.

When the elders of the clan found out that they were being targeted, they knew that they could not escape, so they secretly escorted the sacred relics of the clan, that is, the original iron rod, to two of the strongest clansmen, and handed it to a trusted friend, asking him to deliver the iron rod to Balu. After that, Balu lost contact with the group. After many inquiries, they finally learned that their entire clan was imprisoned and mined for unknown forces.

The dwarves are good at mining, which is nothing, the key is that this force is extremely ferocious, and the management is extremely strict. And the dwarves are a hot-tempered race, how can they be willing to be enslaved? There are really a lot of people who have risen up to resist. And that force was also ruthless, killing most of the people of the tribe, leaving only some old people, women, and children, and still forcing them to work.

According to their way of acting, when the veins are exhausted, they are afraid that even the remaining old and weak women and children will not be spared, and they will all be killed. This made Balu anxious, and wanted to rescue his people, but he knew that he did not have the strength, so he took it upon himself to take the holy relic out of his own way, promising that whoever could save his people, he would give it away.

Li Xiang could see that what Balu said was all true, but he could endure it for more than ten years, and he hadn't been discovered by that force, and this guy's hiding skills were really good. However, none of this is Li Xiang's business, and what Balu asked for is indeed not a matter for him, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I agreed to this matter." You tell me the address, and I'll send ...... right away Lorenzo, since the artifact is yours, it's up to you to go. ”

Originally, Li Xiang wanted to send an army to suppress it, but after thinking about it, since that force can wipe out a dwarf group without knowing it, it will definitely not be too simple, maybe they will know as soon as the troops are transferred here. If they were to jump over the wall and kill the rest of the dwarves, it would be a bit sorry for Balu's request. Therefore, simply let Lorenzo make a move, and ensure that the other party will not find out in advance.

However, this decision was resolutely opposed by Chris, who said: "Your Highness, Mr. Lorenzo cannot leave you at this time!" You won't forget who you just offended, right? Monsieur Lorenzo may not be able to protect you, if he leaves......"

Li Xiang smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry, I wish they would send someone!" It's better to have a master like Lorenzo, then I have more men. But I still want to thank you for your concern, you can think so much about me, I will remember. ”

Li Xiang's mystery, Chris has long understood it, and now that he said so, Chris will no longer talk nonsense.

It's just that except for Li Xiang, no one noticed that after being the head of the guard for a long time, his eyes flickered at this time, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Lorenzo went directly to rescue Balu's people, Alice and Chris went on a date, and Li Xiang could only take the chief guard home. I didn't say anything all night, and early the next morning, the housekeeper came in to ask for instructions, is Li Xiang going to school or going to court today?

Matthew, who was replaced by Li Xiang, is still a student at the Imperial Demon Martial Academy, and he hasn't graduated yet. While attending school, he also had to learn how to handle government affairs, so he often went to observe the king and his ministers discussing state affairs. But now that he has offended the church, and the king is about to give up on him, he is afraid that it will be very conspicuous to go to the church again, so he should simply go to school. The news that the church is going to deal with him is still only known to the upper echelons, and few people in the academy should know about it, and he will not provoke onlookers if he goes. Therefore, Li Xiang immediately decided to go to school.

How to deal with government affairs or something, Li Xiang has long been very transparent. From Matthew's memory, I know that the political system of this plane is different, but in fact, those intrigues are no different from the problems that Li Xiang had to face when he was the emperor in the plane of "Yitian". However, the Demon Martial Arts Academy is very interesting and worth seeing.

Changing into the school uniform of the Demon Martial Academy, Li Xiang took two followers to the academy. I asked about the class schedule and found that there was a sword class this morning.

Compared with the martial arts plane, the swordsmanship of this plane is indeed very rough, and there are not even any routines, and there is nothing to learn. However, in Matthew's class, there are many noble sons. The fathers of these people are either the sons of a certain general, or the grandsons of a certain minister, and even the princes of the orc kingdom and the princess of the elven clan. If these people can be brought under his command, it will be of great help to Li Xiang's feat of unifying the mainland in the future. So Li Xiang decided to take a look at this class to see how many of these classmates were worth wooing.

The place where the fencing class took place was in an extremely spacious hall, the size of a football field. When Li Xiang arrived, half of the classmates had already come first, either cultivating alone or fighting each other, all of them looking diligent.

Although they are all from extraordinary backgrounds, their origins can only give them a higher starting point, but where the end can go depends on their ability. Although if you think that with the power of your family, you can get military merits by casually going to the battlefield and mixing around, it is a suicide act. Although the magic continent is peaceful on the whole, the small-scale fighting has never stopped, and if you really want to fight, the enemy will not care how much power your family has, and you will die if you are stabbed with a sword. So in order to live a better life, we have to work hard now. (To be continued.) )
