Chapter 41: Armor
Sanctuary Light is usually teamed up within, and there is less conflict between people of the same faith. If it unites with other members of the organization, mostly by personal connections, and rarely by application, Tarrant is curious about who it will be, "What kind of organization is that." β
"An organization that fights with the same noble goals as the Light of Shelter. β
"For justice?" There are many organizations that claim justice, but not many of them really contribute.
"To cleanse from sin. β
Although the meaning of the two words is roughly the same, there is a slight difference after Ryan emphasizes it, and Tarrant thinks of an unpopular "justice" organization, the Knights of the Storm, whose attitude of never condoning sin is contrary to the lenient salvation of the Knights of the Light of Protection.
"You've thought of it", Ryan read Tarrant's expression, "I'm thinking about whether to accept it, their code of conduct is extreme, if you work together, there may be conflicts, you can also think about this matter carefully, this is an extraordinary time, after the battle in Tingwu Mountain, our regiment is now understaffed." β
"Okay, let's meet. β
"I'll arrange", Ryan closed the door and made a goodbye gesture in the car, Tarrant nodded slightly, watching the carriage go away, he turned and walked into the Knights, his arm was a little painful, and he needed to find a priest to treat him.
In the treatment area, Tarrant caught a glimpse of his old friend, Nicola, an elderly priest who was somewhat bald, had all white hair, and always wore an outdated shabby cotton robe, who was treating a comatose man.
Tarrant walked up behind him, "Nikola, are you free?"
"Wait", Nikola was bandaging a wound for the wounded, the blood spilling from the wound was a reddish color.
"What poison?" asked Tarrant, sitting on the sidelines.
"It could be some kind of reptile, I'm not sure, I'll have to wait until he wakes up," Nicholas expertly bandaged the wound and turned to look at Tarrant, "Knight, you look good." β
"It's good overall, it's bad locally," Tarrant laughed as he pulled back his sleeve, revealing his right arm with two dark red bruises on it.
The priest raised his arm to examine, "Two magic missiles, you weren't a fuss before. β
"There is still fighting at night, and minor injuries cannot affect the work. β
"That's right", Nikola applied a treatment to the wound for minor injuries, the dark red bruise marks neutralized with the surrounding skin color, and quickly subsided, Tarrant raised his arm and shook it twice, no more pain.
Tarrant patted Nichola on the shoulder, "You should go out on an adventure, it's too wasteful to stay here", in terms of the age of the two, Tarrant should call Nichola a senior or teacher, but Nicholas is easy-going, and he will inevitably be crossed by the juniors, he shakes his torn robe, "I don't have decent equipment, it's too dangerous for an old and frail priest to go out and run." β
"Haha, that's too modest, we all know what you're capable of. "Tarrant has heard that Nikola can cast resurrection, grandmaster-level level.
"A person should retire early after the best of his life, otherwise, when you regret it, it may be the last time in your life. β
"Maybe," Tarrant disagreed, and he got up and walked outside, "See you next time." β
"You should say never to see me, it's not good to see me. β
"That's right. β
Stepping out of the sheltered light, Tarrant wandered the streets of the borough, hurrying past him with people busy with business or livelihood, leaving him a little at a loss, no teammates, no purpose, he needed to find something to do. The tower of the Academy of Magic stood not far away, and he wanted to go and resisted going to that terrifying place from the heart, and the mages were worried that there was no real person to work with.
He sat down on a chair on the side of the street, and thought about his next step, and when the night's mission was completed, it meant that he had officially joined the Falcon in the civil war, and was on the weaker side, hoping that he was not in the wrong place, and that the Falcon would not forgive those who opposed it. Tarrant urgently needs the support of his teammates, and the next road cannot be completed by one person, thinking of this problem, he thinks of the Storm Knights, the justice organization that fights violence with violence, if he accepts that application, he will have a violent partner, an annoying choice, and in addition, the disappearance of the Ogin team means that they have come into contact with a key part of the Psicosucking Monster incident.
When Tarrant came to his senses, he found a stranger sitting beside him, in a gray linen robe with an ordinary face.
The stranger asked softly, "Knight, do you want the Spirit Pattern Bag?"
An underground merchant roaming the streets in search of potential customers, whose sources are often unseemly, Tarrant waved his hand in disgust, "Stay away from me." β
The stranger was not discouraged, "I have a high-quality spirit pattern bag that can fit the space of a room. β
The spirit pattern bag in the hands of the adventurer is actually a magic item, its maker uses magic to suppress a space into the pocket, and uses runes to slow down the attenuation of magic power, it becomes a large space that is easy to carry, the better the workmanship, the greater the space capacity that the spirit pattern bag can contain, the spirit pattern bag in Tarrant's hand can be put down to think of as a large desk space, the price is not expensive, it is very rare to have a room capacity spirit pattern bag, and the price is even more unimaginable.
Tarrant stood up and walked towards the business district, he didn't want to entangle with the black merchant, and he didn't believe that the black merchant had such a high-quality spirit pattern bag in his hand.
"Hey, wait, I can show you this bag", he eagerly reached into his coat pocket.
Tarrant didn't look back, he thought of something he could do now, the "Faith" shop, now that he had enough money to buy a piece of fine armor.
Rushed to the equipment shop, there were a few adventurers in the shop who were picking up equipment, and the believer was holding a double-headed sword to introduce its history at length, and when he saw Tarrant, he still took the time to greet him with a warm face, "Knight, it's only been a few days, and your complexion is much better." β
"Rest now," Tarrant replied, as he walked over to a suit of armor that shone silver and had no trim on its appearance.
"Just look at it, if you like it, tell me", the believer continued to explain the history of the double-headed sword to the customers next to him.
"Well", Tarrant took off the silver armor on the stand, it was not as bulky as he imagined, it should not be a zircon crystal product, its inner lining was very smooth, and there was no trace of polishing, from the appearance, this armor had no characteristics, it was just pure silver, Tarrant asked the believer: "Does this armor have magical energy?"
The believer turned his head and looked, "Ha, Silver Moon, you picked a good one, this armor can defend against the damage of two-star weapons, it feels good to the touch, is there a soft feeling, like that silver moon at night." β
That soft touch did match the name of Silver Moon, Tarrant carefully stroked it again, it must be very comfortable to wear, he compared it to the mirror, it was similar to his body shape, "How much is this armor." β
"5000 gold coins, which can be processed for free. β
Free processing refers to the personalized transformation of equipment after purchase, the size adjustment of armor, and the marking of badges. Tarrant estimated the price, it was not a discount, it was only a defense against a two-star weapon, and he hung the armor back on the stand.
"The weight of the Silver Moon is very light, it is made of alloy zuΓ², zirconium crystal and steel, at night, you will find its magic, giving the user a dark vision range of five meters, the disadvantage is that at night it also emits a faint silver light, just like the moon. Overall, it's cool, but there are zΓ i flaws. β
Tarrant looked at the armor in front of him, the five-meter vision range in the dark, wearing it in the dark lair of the spirit sucking monster would be the same as during the day, it would be of great help, 5000 gold coins, he was moved.
The Believer pointed to the other armor, "You can also look at other armors, they have better defense, stronger resistance to magic, or cooler, as long as you can name the conditions, I can figure out what you want." β
There are also dozens of armors hanging in the room, different sizes, shapes, and colors, which are dazzling, and there is no set goal, Tarrant likes almost every piece of armor, he stopped in front of a red armor, the material is very strange, like animal scales, the outer surface is a little rough, the lining is wool, it is very warm to the touch, he asked: "What is this armor made of?"
"Guess what...... Ha, let me tell you, it's dragon scales, the largest scales that fall from the red dragon's body, which can isolate the impact of high temperatures, and are almost immune to fire damage, which has a great effect, right, but unfortunately there is a shortcoming", the believer made an embarrassed expression, "Wearing this armor in front of the dragon will make the user die a miserable death." β
"It's a big drawback," Tarrant said with regretful humor, "How much?"
"Well...... this armor," the believer looked at the armor and tapped his fingers on the table, "To be honest, I'm really reluctant to sell it, you know, it's a symbol of the identity of the adventurer, if you want to sell it, probably ...... 200,000 gold coins. β
"Two hundred thousand!" the other adventurer cried out when he heard the number, "what armor is so valuable?" he ran to the armor, "this armor is rough on the surface, and it doesn't look very good, you are robbing money." β
The proud equipment was scorned by the uninformed patron, and the believer's enthusiasm was half gone, and he walked up to the adventurer, "Man, cut it with your sword, and you will know what the concept of two hundred thousand gold coins is." β
The adventurer looked hesitantly at the believer, "You know my sword......"
"Three-star refined sword, I know, try it", the believer looked very confident.
The sharpness of the three-star refined long sword can cut through ordinary quality iron weapons, looking at the confidence of the believer, Tarrant is very curious, he also wants to see what the defense of 200,000 gold coins looks like.
The adventurer drew his sword, "You can't blame me for the damage", and after saying that, he slashed hard at the armor, and the collision of the two hard objects did not make a crisp sound, but echoed dullly, as if chopping on wood.
Tarrant took off his armor and couldn't find the place where he had just slashed, it was as intact as before, not even a single scratch, and the shocking defense, the three-star weapon posed no threat to it.
The believer smiled and took the armor, "You know, it is not easy to remove the dragon's scales, you must have a weapon of four stars or higher to deal damage to it. If I wear this armor and duel with you, you won't be able to hurt a finger of me, understand, this is the protection that 200,000 gold coins give you. β
The adventurer froze in place, his too presumptuous speech made him a little embarrassed at this moment, he withdrew his sword, and said dejectedly: "Okay, I admit that this armor may be worth 200,000 gold coins, but who can afford such expensive clothes." β
"So I'm reluctant to sell it," the believer said, placing the armor on the table and looking at it, "reminds me of the past." He seemed to be a little intoxicated by the memories, "A lot of the equipment here is something I collected, and like this one, it almost cost me my life." β
Tarrant looked around at the array of armor, the shopkeeper's loot was very rich, "You have collected so much armor, I have to say, I really don't know which one to choose." β
The believer nodded and said, "You're right, many people feel this way. β
"Give me some Jianyì, shall you?"
"No problem, tell me your request. The shopkeeper hung the red armor back in its place.
"Well...... It's okay to be able to defend against two-star weapon attacks, with magic resistance, preferably in terms of mental resistance. β
The believer pondered for a few seconds and said, "There are a few pieces of armor that will meet your requirements, come with me." β
"There's also a requirement missing," Tarrant remembers that he had another important restriction that he didn't specify, and that he had to add this, "The price is under 10,000 gold coins." β
The believer paused, his fingers tapping on the table again, "I have to say, you have a problem for me. β
