"I didn't expect you to observe very carefully. ”

Duke smiled faintly at Nicole, Cassel and Alan, the two big bosses, did not see that they were dissatisfied with their faces, but let a little girl see it.

"I saw that your brows were furrowed twice, and you were not as happy as the two chiefs, so I guessed that you were not very satisfied with the armor, was it because I didn't control the temperature of the magic array of the iron-smelting blast furnace well?"

There was even a hint of nervousness on Nicole's face, because since she was discovered to have magical elements in her body, she had been treated like a witch and a devil by the people in the village, and everyone expressed their disgust for her, even her own parents and relatives.

Just as her parents were about to send Nicole to church to be judged by God, the Dark Witch Society showed up and took her away, teaching her about the use of magic. However, the dark witch branch where she is located is hidden next to the eerie graveyard of the undead, and this environment makes a little girl who has suddenly changed feel a kind of dazed and fearful from the bottom of her heart.

It wasn't until she came to Storm Castle for ten days that Nicole finally felt the shadow of her normal life, surrounded by kind people, no one knew that she was a witch, at most she was just curious about her magic. Moreover, under the strong authority of the lord, these workers will not report anything to the Holy See because of suspicion, and they worship and believe that the lord is their savior.

But what really made Nicole feel different was when she first met Duke, and his first reaction was to smile gently at herself after learning that she was a witch. Nicole couldn't remember how long it had been since she had seen a stranger smile at her, and it was this smile that made her feel the warmth and respect she hadn't felt for a long time, so she didn't want to disappoint Duke.

"It has nothing to do with you, it's the power of the Dou Qi that exceeds my previous expectations, and the armor is already very well made. ”

Duke comforted the little girl, it is true that from the perspective of armor alone, it is already a miracle that it can be forged in a short period of time, but this world is different from the earth, and the power of magic makes the defense of these armors greatly reduced, and there is no need to wait for the appearance of firearms.

Hearing Duke's answer, Nicole's heart felt a little better, and then she plucked up her courage and said: "Lord Lord, in fact, as long as you draw magic runes on the armor like the Holy Light Armor of the Holy See, then you can greatly offset the attack of the magic power, and even directly make the attacking magic element disappear." ”

"Magic runes are so effective?" Duke asked in surprise, he actually knew that the armor was carved with magic runes, which could increase defense, because the set of armor he brought from the family had magic runes on it.

It's just that Duke hasn't actually experimented with it, and he can't feel the effect of the magic runes on it, and he has always thought that even if it works, it is estimated that it will not have much effect. Moreover, the gilded magic runes on the family armor were as bright as the Saint Seiya armor, not only heavy but also blind, and Duke even felt that it was a burden.

As a result, now that I hear this, if the magic runes can really offset the magic power, then it will be completely exerted to surpass the hammer forging level of the era of the storm battle armor, and truly raise the defense power to the top level of the continent.

"Yes, my lord, I have seen the Holy See paladins attack the Dark Witch Society, and the magic hits their holy light armor and disappears, this is the effect of the magic rune. And I was sent to Storm Fortress because I was familiar with magic arrays and runes, so I was sure that magic runes could withstand magical attacks. ”

"And do you know anything about this rune of defensive magic?"

Duke asked casually, but he didn't have much hope, and it was already a windfall to know the effect of the magic runes.

Nicole heard Duke's inquiry, and a look of hesitation appeared on her face, but in the face of Duke's expectations, she finally bit her chin and said, "My lord, if you give me time, I can draw the magic runes that run on the armor, and I can also have the buff and recovery effect of natural magic!"

The reason why witches are able to heal the sick and become the confidants of the Holy See in this world is because most witches have access to natural magical energy that only elves have, which is the only magical element that can be compared to the healing effect of the Holy See's light magic.

If you can really draw defensive magic runes on the armor as Nicole said, but also have a buff effect, then it is definitely a qualitative improvement!

Pick up the treasure! Duke instantly had such a thought in his mind, he didn't expect that an inconspicuous little witch could actually help him in armor to bring such help.

It's just that Duke is still a little unsure, so he asks, "Can you really do it?"

"Hmm!" Nicole nodded heavily, with a hint of stubbornness in her eyes.

"Alright, I'll let Black take over your job next, and you can concentrate on drawing the armor defense runes. ”

"I won't let you down. ”

Nika replied firmly, she must draw a defensive rune to the pleasure of the lord, this may be the only way she can repay it at the moment.

"I believe in you. Duke smiled back, a little encouragement to the little witch, and then he turned and walked in the direction of the castle, and although he gave the task to Nicole, he decided to ask Gandalf about the magic runes instead.

Gandalf has been following Galileo's ass every day since he didn't have to manipulate the magic array, and in his words, he wants to explore the mysteries of science, and he wants to become a pioneer of science!

When he first heard Gandalf say this, Duke was surprised that he couldn't say a word for a long time, he had been preaching science before, and he was more tired of Gandalf's pride, and wanted to hit him, but he overplayed it.

No, now we have to find a way to get Gandalf back, how can a magician become a scientist? After all, there is no shortage of Gandalf in the development of science and technology, but this is the only super thigh of the level of the Great Magister of Stormcastle!

Definitely need to change Gandalf's unrealistic thinking, Duke thought to himself as he walked.

Nicole looked at Duke's back, and there was a kind of admiration and confusion in her eyes, and even a hint of blush appeared on her cheeks. At the same time, she secretly made up her mind in her heart that she must help the lord complete the magic runes, so as not to disappoint Duke and make the Storm Legion even stronger. Because Storm Castle is the place that has been most like home since he became a witch.
