Chapter Forty-Six: The Ugin Armor
Tomorrow is 515, the anniversary of the starting point, and the day with the most benefits. In addition to the gift bag and school bag, this time's "515 Red Envelope Flip" must be seen, how can there be a reason not to grab the red envelope, set the alarm clock high~
"Abdul-Jabbar, orc. Thank you for your contribution to our tribe, for risking your life to go deep into this bottomless pit to rescue my people, I have nothing to thank you, but I hope you will accept this gift. ”
After the raid on the Ingres mine, the dwarf king Ula stood in front of Jabbar and thanked him, the height was only half of Jabbar's, about a little above his waist, in the face of Ula's enthusiasm, Jabbar thought it was a dwarf's polite words, but in the next second, Ula called the guards behind him to get something that surprised Jabbar.
It was a pure black Ugin armor, made entirely of black steel stone, inlaid with the most luxurious black gems of the Dwarven Kingdom, and the breastplate was connected by a delicate ring of fine steel underneath the Dragon Strike shoulder armor, and the cuirass was made of a single steel plate, without the slightest trace of splicing. The leg guards strictly control the radius of the inner ring according to the proportions of the orc's body, and the protected place extends to the knee position.
The two dwarves struggled to lift this perfect armor and display it in front of Jabbar, and for a moment, Jabbar even felt that it was not a warframe at all, but a work of art, a perfect work of art. You must know that in Herrera, the dwarves have the best forging skills among all races, and their raw materials are also the best, even surpassing the forging skills of the elves, and the Ugin battle armor created by the dwarven king himself is simply the best armor in this world.
"Well, King of Black Iron, this gift is too expensive for me to accept. It is right to come to your rescue, and it is not enough to bear this generous gift. ”
Seeing the Ugin armor in front of him, Jabbar was pleasantly surprised, but the more this time, the more he couldn't show his diao silk man's nature, so he refused half-push and half-delay.
"If you don't accept it, you're looking down on our dwarves' craft?"
Jabbar was there to play there, but Ulla believed it and pulled her face down in displeasure.
Hmm, are the dwarves in this world so direct?
"No, no, I mean this armor is too perfect, too luxurious, it's all given as the highest etiquette in the kingdom, I'm a little orc captain...... Forget it, don't talk about it, I've accepted this gift of yours. ”
Seeing Ulla's unhappy appearance, Jabbar simply didn't stop and directly carried the Ugin armor in front of him. But the dwarf is so direct, the last second Ula was still unhappy that Jabbar was not receiving the gift, and the next second after seeing that the orc in front of him had already taken over the armor, a smile suddenly bloomed on the face of this simple dwarf king, heroic, direct, refreshing, this is Jabbar's first impression of the black iron dwarf.
"Wait, why is this thing so heavy?"
However, when Abdul-Jabbar happily carried the armor, the development of things made Uncle Orc depressed again. Doesn't it mean that the better the armor and weapons, the less weight they make? Is it true that all the weapons and equipment made by the dwarves are like this? Only the weapons of the elves are so light?
All the questions poured into Jabbar's brain for a while, and obviously, Uncle Orc's brain capacity was once again insufficient.
"Haha, this Ugin armor is made of pure steel smelted from pure steel stone, and the quality of steel stone is extremely high, three times that of ordinary iron ore, so the weapon armor made from it will also be particularly heavy. ”
Ulla laughed at Abdul-Jabbar's childish question.
"However, this Ugin armor in your hand is not an ordinary Ugin armor, because its carbon content is higher than that of ordinary fine steel, and its hardness and strength have been greatly improved, but to forge it, it will take several times more manpower and material resources. In addition, we added magic stone powder in the process of smelting refined steel, which effectively reduced the quality of refined steel, so this Ugin armor in your hand has actually reduced a lot of weight, otherwise, you can't bear the three times the weight of ordinary steel armor, and you can't walk at all, haha. ”
Jabbar placed the armor on the table and continued to study it, while Ulla walked over to Jabbar and continued to introduce Abdul-Jabbar to the great masterpiece of the Dwarven Kingdom. However, some of Ula's explanations are understood by Jabbar, such as the content of carbon in steel determines the hardness of steel, but as for the magic stone powder, Abdul-Jabbar has heard of it for the first time, maybe this world has too many secrets of its own, just like magicians, Jabbar has not seen a few so far, or only one of Aishara, so it is normal not to understand many things.
"Oh......"
"Well, if only it could be lighter, it would be easier to wear. By the way, Lord of Black Iron, are all the weapons and armor you forge so heavy?"
Hearing Ula's explanation, Jabbar still wondered why the elves' weapons were so light, while the dwarves' weapons were so heavy, didn't the dwarves find it difficult to wield such a heavy weapon on the battlefield?
"Well, for the most part, except for the light weapon like the musket, the other melee equipment is so heavy. ”
"Why? Doesn't that hinder marching and fighting?"
"Abdul-Jabbar, you may not know that there was once a famous hero in the history of the Dwarven Kingdom, called the King of the Hill. In the year 2660, the dungeon army swarmed out, and the King of the Hill led the Alpine Clan to defend the top of the demons, where he fought the dungeon army for seven days and seven nights, and finally defeated Hydra at the Altar of the Storm, and legend has it that the weapon he used in that war was the Storm Warhammer made of pure Ugin, which weighed five times as much as a normal warhammer, so every blow of the King of the Hill was powerful and deadly. Since then, the Takayama clan has left behind the rule that all weapons forged by dwarves must weigh up to five hundred koles, and dwarves who are able to use such weapons can become candidates for the clan leader election. This tradition was passed down until it spread to all the dwarven clans, and then we dwarves used the weight of their weapons as a measure of a warrior's prowess, and later, as the number of battles decreased, the tradition gradually faded. Before you liberated us, most of the weapons we forged were even custom-made to orc standards, which is truly a great sorrow for the dwarven kingdom. ”
Ula said, and couldn't help but bow her head in frustration, thoughtful. Apparently, after a thousand years of peace, the dwarves had forgotten that they were once a warlike race, and wealth and vanity had corrupted their minds and caused the dwarves to lose themselves in their path, and until Jabbar freed them, most of the dwarves were numb and forging weapons and armor for the orcs. I have to say that the dwarves have come to this point because of greed. But fortunately, Ulla has now awakened and is determined to join this epic war, the orc war. Fight for your freedom and reclaim your lost faith.
