Dou Qi is the dividing line of high-level swordsmen in this world, if you don't cultivate Dou Qi, then you can only be regarded as a low-level or middle-level swordsman. Of course, this is just a normal situation, and there are a few people like Princess Jina who have not reached the strength of a high-level swordsman, but still cultivate a fighting spirit.

Allen's cultivation of Dou Qi was something Duke had never known about before, so he was shocked. Especially in Duke's heart, he has always thought that Alan is a very reliable subordinate, a pure soldier, but he didn't expect him to hide it so deeply.

Feeling Duke's surprise, Alan directly knelt down on one knee and said, "I'm sorry Lord Lord, this is an order given to me by Duke Otto, let me hide my strength, and just use it to take you away when Storm Castle is breached." ”

Duke Otto's order was even more surprising to Duke, and he couldn't think of a reason for Duke Otto to do so.

"Why did my father do this?" Duke asked rhetorically.

Hearing Duke's question, Allen had a look of embarrassment on his face. But Duke's face sank at this time, and he said coldly: "Allen, you are now the captain of my Storm Castle, you should know who your allegiance is, no matter what you did before, but I can't want a subordinate who is disloyal to me!"

Duke may not have any way to be a subordinate, but he still knows that the most basic rule of his subordinates is loyalty, and even Duke speculates with malice whether Allen is the eyeliner that Duke Otto planted beside him. Although he could not think of a reason for Duke Otto to do this, and how to say that he was also his son. But the bloody struggle for power in the big family has already appeared too much in history, and without a deep family foundation, he can only think so.

"Your lord, you don't need to doubt my loyalty, I'm willing to prove it with my life. The reason why the Duke ordered this was because your reputation in the imperial capital was not good before, and you were even arrogant at some times. Duke Otto is worried that you don't know the power of the Ice Demon, and if you know that I am a high-level swordsman, you will be unscrupulous to rely on, so he instructed me to show my strength only at critical times, and only in this way can I ensure your safety. ”

It can be said that a lot of thoughts flashed in Duke's mind just now, but he didn't expect that it was because of his flamboyant personality and arrogance in the imperial capital that Duke Otto would let Allen keep a low profile and avoid using Allen's strength to do things.

It seems that Duke was really infamous before, and even his father, who was far away in the Duchy of Berry and hadn't seen him for a few years, was so relieved. It's just that he didn't expect that his father, who thought he had no feelings and had never been indifferent, actually thought about how to save his life after Storm Castle was breached, which really surprised Duke.

"I see, you're up, but I don't want another time. ”

Duke still warned Allen, hoping that he would understand that he was now loyal to himself, not Duke Otto.

"I understand, my lord. Alan replied with his hand on his chest, and then stood up silently.

"Then let's start experimenting, and be careful. ”

Duke reminded him and took a step back, and Alan nodded and turned to Cassel, a faint red glow began to appear on his body, slightly different from the golden glow of Princess Jina.

"Cassel, pay attention!" Alan also reminded.

"Come on!" Cassel replied fearlessly, and his beard showed a kind of toughness.

There is nothing to grind between men, especially between soldiers, Allen directly slashed over with a sword qi, Duke only saw a red light flash in front of him, and the long sword with fighting spirit slashed to the plate armor, and then saw Cassel take two steps back sharply, and a more intense fire appeared on the armor than before.

When the sparks and fighting spirit were gone, Duke saw a deep sword mark on the plate armor, almost to the point of slashing through the plate armor. You must know that this is a high-carbon plate armor, although it does not add other alloys, but it is also the forefront of the world's steel hardness, and it is estimated that only small production of fine steel such as "Uzi steel" can be compared.

And the thickness of the plate armor is up to three millimeters, and it is acceptable to pierce Duke, after all, this is the reason for the force point. As a result, it is about to be cut through now, Duke feels unacceptable, this is the super armor that he has high hopes for, can't even be blocked by a sword, the fighting spirit of this world is so powerful, not to mention Gandalf's exaggerated magic attack that day, how can the armor be defended? This situation makes Duke have a big gap in his heart.

However, compared to Duke's loss, Cassel and Allen had shocked expressions on their faces. Especially Allen, he turned to Duke and said: "Lord Lord, the defense of this armor is really amazing, even the fighting spirit can't be completely cut through, if the Storm Legion can fully equip this armor, it can be used as an ordinary soldier to fight against the Imperial or Holy See Legions, which will break the boundaries of strength!"

"That's right, Lord Lord, I agree with Allen's words, this is definitely one of the best armors on the continent!"

Cassel also replied with approval, and he even stroked the armor on his body with his big rough hands, like caressing his own little lover, so that he could let out the love in his heart.

Seeing the two of them so excited, Duke didn't want to say anything to spoil the fun, could it be that he was too demanding? Why did he always feel that something was wrong with this armor, it seemed that the only way to ask Gandalf about magic and vindictiveness was to ask Gandalf for advice.

"Don't worry, this armor will be fully equipped with the Storm Legion, and I promised you before that one day the Storm Legion will become the most powerful legion in the world!"

"We firmly believe that this day has come!" Cassel and Alan had no doubts about Duke's words, especially after seeing all the miraculous changes in Duke.

After being tested by Cassel and Allen, the new plate armor was completely finalized, and Duke named this plate armor "Storm Armor", which will be mass-produced and eventually equipped by all personnel.

Just as Duke was about to leave the hydro factory and go to the castle to ask Gandalf about how to defend against fighting spirit and magic, a timid female voice came over and said, "My lord, are you dissatisfied with the armor just now?"

Hearing this voice, Duke turned his head to look over, and found that it was the "yellow-haired girl" who came from the Dark Witch Society, because of her strength and identity, she was assigned to control the iron-making blast furnace outside the city, which was relatively closed, and would not let the Holy See find out that there was a little girl who could magic, so she happened to see the scene of Duke testing his armor.
