Chapter Two Hundred and Three: The Legendary Scimitar

Roddy's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked carefully at the Baron Gadar in front of him again. [Full text reading]

Of course, Luo Di, the big name of Ruijinfang, knew that he had been in the army for such a long time, and he didn't know the relationship between Ruijinfang and the military.

Although the empire's famous business family is not prominent in the political realm, its real influence is quite significant...... Almost half of the equipment and weapons of the local garrison of the empire were purchased from this family.

Their shops were found almost everywhere in the empire. The Imperial decree was special that civilians were not allowed to carry weapons except for professional soldiers or those with the title of samurai. But almost one-third of the weapons used by the warriors in the empire were purchased from the Ruijin Fang - even when Luo Di was in the Imperial Academy, the only long sword was also bought from the shops in the Imperial Capital!

The most important thing is that the emperor will buy a large number of weapons and equipment from Ruijinfang every year, and almost half of the local garrison army is from Ruijinfang's weapons, even many Northern Legions and Northwest Legions!

To be able to do business to such a point, it is impossible without a little real power!

Luo Di frowned slightly: "Baron Gadar, I don't know what you are looking for me?"

Baron Gadar glanced at Nicole, bowed his body, and said in a low voice, "Your Excellency Roddy, can we sit down and talk slowly?" Miss Nicole, you shouldn't mind letting Your Excellency Roddy leave for a while, right?"

The two talked as they walked, and randomly found a place with a barbecue grill and sat down. Baron Gadar seemed to be quite urban, but he smiled casually, not in a hurry to speak.

Roddy has long since lost the impatience he had back then-after the war, Roddy's biggest transformation at the moment. It is the word "stable"!

He smiled steadily, casually handed over a skin bag filled with water, and after watching Gadar drink saliva, he spoke again without hurrying: "Your Excellency Baron Gadar, do you have anything to do with me?"

Gadar smiled and said, "Your Excellency Roddy...... In this holy war, you are the youngest imperial hero in His Majesty's Commendation Order! Unfortunately, I myself was very unfortunate to be absent from the imperial capital at that time, and this time I came to Xiqiu only to deal with the affairs of some family shops, so I came here today. Just to pay you a visit and show my admiration for you!"

Roddy just smiled and didn't speak, quietly waiting for the other party to continue.

Gadar continued to laugh and said: "You know, our family's business has always been closely related to the military of the empire, and I myself am very fond of making friends with some heroes and heroes of the military, and if you can't make friends with the new military stars of the empire, otherwise it will be a great pity for me!"

Luo Di smiled faintly: "Your Excellency, you are too polite, I am now just a small column commander of the Royal Guard, and I am only a viscount in terms of title." I am flattered by the favor of an imperial business family like Your Excellency!"

Gadar shook his head and said loudly: "Heroes come out of youth! His Excellency Roddy has made a name for himself in the military at a young age, and his future prospects must be limitless...... I, Gadar, can't be mistaken. ”

Roddy glanced at the other party. He whispered, "You're welcome." ”

Gadar smiled lightly, picked up a long and narrow thing wrapped in layers of brocade cloth that he was carrying, and said with a smile: "The so-called sword gift to heroes, our family is a place to sell weapons, and there are no good things. This blade is not bad, it is my honor to meet His Excellency Luo Di today, and I ask you to accept this small gift!"

Roddy looked at what the other hand had handed over. He didn't reach out to take it, but just shook his head and said, "Your Excellency Gadar." I don't understand that. I'm just a little viscount, and I'm surprised that you came to see me so specially. And give me gifts, which makes even more sense.

Gadar didn't refute, but just peeled off the layers of brocade cloth, revealing what was inside.

It's a scimitar!

In terms of shape, it is exactly the same shape as the scimitar of the Thunder God Whip Wolf Fang Army, but except for the shape, the others are very different!

I don't know what kind of leather the scabbard is made of, it looks extremely thick, and the leather also shows a prismatic horn, with a bit of rustic.

Gadar's eyes showed a little smugness, and he said lightly: "This scimitar is a gift from me to you...... The scabbard is made of the skin of a peculiar fish that is a specialty of the southwest of the empire, this fish is huge, several meters long, and has infinite strength, and can even devour a horse with its mouth open! The leather is also extremely tough, and the sword is difficult to penetrate! This scabbard alone is the best in a thousand!"

With that, he slowly pulled out the scimitar, held it in his hand and waved it lightly twice. His movements were light, but the scimitar in his hand made a faint resonance of "buzzing".

The blade of the scimitar was as cold as a pool of autumn water, and the cold light was clear. I don't know how to carve a strange line of vertical writing on the blade, crooked, with a bit of weirdness. As it waved, it seemed to flash a strange light.

"This knife is made of extremely special and rare cold iron ore, which is known as the best in iron, and it is rare to dig out a little bit of cold iron in tens of thousands of tons of iron ore...... Of course, although these cold irons are rare in iron ore, they are only mortal things, and the weapons they make can cut gold and jade, and cut iron like mud, but they are not really gods. It's just that the spell on this is amazing......"

Speaking of this, Gadar lowered his voice and said in a low voice: "With this line of spells on this, this scimitar is almost comparable to an ordinary artifact!"

Hearing this, Luo Di couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Roddy's reaction was seen by Gadar, he seemed to be satisfied with Roddy's reaction, looked around, and then whispered: "Your Excellency Roddy, this line of writing on this scimitar...... It's the language of the dragon!"

"Dragons?"

"Yes!"

Gadar whispered, "Dragons! Dragons are powerful creatures born with superior magical powers. The dragon language on this is a line of magic spells, and with the magic blessing of this dragon clan, this scimitar has truly become a magic weapon!"

Roddy took a deep breath, looked at Gadar vigilantly, and said in a low voice: "The magic of the dragon clan? This kind of thing doesn't seem to exist in the Great Bright 6...... right?"

Gadar smiled faintly, and there seemed to be a bit of pride in his smile: "Our family's business is all over the Guangming Big 6, and naturally there is some infiltration into the Northern Roland Big 6. This scimitar is also what our family inadvertently waited for in the northern Roland 6! This scimitar has a history of many years, and legend has it that it was the work of a famous swordsmith of Roland 6 more than 100 years ago! That swordsmith is also a great magician, I don't know how he learned the dragon language from the dragons, and carved this dragon magic spell on this scimitar! Look at the handle of this knife......

After speaking. He opened his palm, revealing the hilt of his sword.

Roddy only glanced at it, and a strange look flashed in his eyes......

This hilt...... Why is this hilt so similar to the spotlight sword I used to be??

Of course, there are still differences between the hilt of this sword and the original lightsword, but it is only a difference in the material. But the go is very similar!

The handle seems to be made of a transparent crystal, the whole body is transparent, and the end of the handle is inlaid with a red gem - but the gem is a little weird red, Roddy can see at a glance that in addition to the size, this gem is absolutely the same as the gem on the hilt of the spotlight sword he used at the beginning!

Spotlight Sword Luo Di is naturally very familiar - this gem is special Luo Di also knows in his heart. The beauty of the Spotlight Sword is that it is all on this gem of the hilt, through which the fighting spirit of the samurai can be transmitted to the blade of the sword, so as to turn the originally fragile Spotlight Sword into a sharp weapon!!

According to Danton's notes, this gemstone is purely a special "energy conversion" effect!

Looking at the strange look in Roddy's eyes, Gadar thought that the other party was moved by this scimitar and smiled slightly. said: "Your Excellency Luo Di, I just said that this scimitar is only worthy of a hero like you, please accept it!"

Luo Di didn't move, but there was a thoughtful expression on his face - the spotlight sword was obviously a strange weapon created by Dandong. But the gem on the handle of this scimitar ...... It's almost certain that this scimitar must have the same wonderful use as the Spotlighter.

But how did Danton's casting method appear in Roland 6??

Seeing that the other party refused to answer, Gadar smiled again: "Your Excellency Roddy, do you still have any questions?"

Roddy took a breath. He said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency Gadar, this gift is too valuable. I can't take it. ”

Gadar shook his head and said, "I sincerely just want to make friends with an imperial hero like you, to be honest. This scimitar is nothing but a beautiful ornament in my hands, and it is of no use at all, and I think that only in the hands of a hero like you can it be wielded for its true effect!"

Roddy's heart moved, and a strange smile appeared on his face: "The real effect?"

Gadar shook his head with a wry smile and said in a low voice: "I'm not afraid of your shame when I say it." Although this scimitar is legendary, when I got it, it didn't seem to be of much use - of course, it was extremely sharp, and ordinary swords would break immediately when they tried it. But the legend has it that this scimitar is much more powerful and can even split mountains...... Of course, the Rolanders like to boast about their magical history, and I think it's probably just some unfounded legend. So, don't think it's too expensive and refuse to accept it......"

Luo Di hesitated for a moment and smiled, "Can I take a look?"

"Of course!" Gadar immediately chilled the scimitar into Roddy's hand.

Luo Di held the knife in one hand, stretched out his other hand, and flicked his fingers lightly on the knife, "Hum", the scimitar let out a low groan, the sound was low and continuous, a little weird.

Luo Di raised his eyebrows and said, "You don't know how to use this knife?"

Seeing that the other party had already held the knife in his hand, Gadar said with a smile: "Yes, it's not just me, even if this knife is in Roland 6, it has changed several masters in the past hundred years, each of which is an excellent knight, but this knife has never been wielded as powerful as it is in the hands of those people." It's just an ordinary sharp weapon, of course, but it's just a little more flashy. ”

He smiled as if he was very relaxed, and said lightly: "This knife, after all, is made of cold iron, I just think it's a pity that it's in my hands, it's better to let it wield it in the hands of an imperial hero like you." You are in the military. In battlefield fighting, a sharp weapon will bring you a lot of convenience. ”

Roddy smiled lightly, but secretly calculated in his heart: this Baron Gadar was clearly here to curry favor with himself—and whatever he was. Just because he gave himself a gift but gave him a knife instead of anything else, this is a very smart move.

Giving away gold coins and treasures is a low-level practice. And according to his status as a soldier and samurai, he was given a sharp and valuable weapon. Undoubtedly very smart - this man understands the psychology of others very well!

Speaking of this knife, the other party also said that it is not too valuable - although it is said to be magical, but in fact it is just an ordinary sharp weapon, although the weapon of cold iron is very valuable, but it is not too unusual, at least many wealthy nobles have this kind of cold iron weapon at home. The value ranges from a few thousand gold coins to tens of thousands of gold coins. Although it is precious in the eyes of ordinary people, it is nothing in the eyes of those really big people.

Although this knife has a bit of an evil legend, it only adds a bit of mystery - the only special thing is that I am afraid that the real use of this knife will not be known to the other party. Luo Di couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, if the other party knew the true use of this knife, would he still give it away?

Naturally, Roddy would not accept gifts from others for no reason, and he knew that there was always a plan for others to give him something for no reason - but this scimitar did make him curious, especially the gem on the hilt...... Is it another weapon like a spotlighter??

When it comes to Dandong, Roddy has to pay attention.

Everyone he touched, everything he touched, as long as it involved the legendary old man. What's not weird? Andy's old skeleton is alive there!

Skimming off the ethereal legends of this scimitar. A cold iron weapon is worth only tens of thousands of gold coins, which is not too valuable. Let's see what the other party says next......

Roddy thought of this. Smiling lightly, he slowly placed the scimitar in front of him, and said in a low voice, "Your Excellency Gadar, you came to see me from so far and gave me such a gift...... I'm a person who doesn't like to go around in circles, so please explain your intentions!"

Gadar saw that the other party did not refuse his gift, but just put the scimitar in front of him, and his heart was a little bottom.

He smiled slowly—with a nose and a mustache on the ground, a smile that seemed a little sly.

The expression on his face was unhurried, and Gadar said slowly: "Your Excellency Roddy, you are still serving as an officer in the Royal Guard...... Based on your strength, it seems a bit condescending to be just an officer, but would you be interested in changing places......"

Roddy smiled, his gaze resting on Gadar's face.

Gadar looked to the side and lowered his voice, "For example...... Military Affairs Agency?"

Military Affairs Administration?

Andy laughed secretly in his heart, it seems that the other party was sent by the old fellow of the Marquis of Caroline to win him over.

Thinking of this, Luo Di couldn't help but feel a little depressed in his heart - after the reward ceremony that day, Luo Di gradually heard some rumors, and also understood the intention and consequences of the old skeleton's words...... It's hard for it to come up with such an outrageous idea!!

Now the old fox Caroline really thought he was the old skeleton's bullshit bastard, and he actually ran to woo himself. It seems that he also knows that it is impossible for the Lionheart family to compete with the Tulip family at present.

The emperor is now clearly favoring the Tulip family, so the old marquis has to work his own illegitimate son, and the illegitimate son in the future will be the future emperor, after all, the emperor has no son now, and the position of the crown prince is still vacant.

It's a mess!

Roddy shook his head and smiled weirdly.

Gadar looked at Roddy silently. Although I didn't understand what the weird smile on the other party's face meant, it was fortunate that the other party immediately rejected him without an exit.

After waiting for a while, Guodal slowly said, "Your Excellency Luo Di, what do you mean?"

Luo Di thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Baron Gadar, you came to me on the commission of the Marquis of Caroline...... It's just that the Marquis of Caroline, as the emperor's ** minister, has a lofty status, how can he take a fancy to a small figure like me...... I can't accept your gift. ”

How smart Gadar was, he immediately smiled and said, "Your Excellency Roddy, Lord Marquis is indeed very appreciative of you, but...... Hehe, for some special reasons, he can't express it directly to you, and I just accepted his commission to come to see you......"

Roddy nodded.

That's right. With the cleverness of the Marquis Caroline, since he recognized himself as the illegitimate son of the emperor, it was absolutely impossible for him to dare to contact him directly. After all, he was also afraid of the emperor's suspicion.

It's just that...... It's just that I'm not an illegitimate child at all!!

Come to think of it. Luo Di couldn't laugh or cry, but this kind of thing was not easy to say, shook his head, and said: "I understand your kindness, but I am very happy in the Royal Guard now, and I dare not accept the good intentions of the Minister of War." But I'm grateful for his appreciation, so please take my words back with you. ”

Roddy knew very well in his heart what Marquis Caroline had in mind!

wants to draw himself into his front - although he is now the illegitimate son of the emperor in everyone's hearts, then he is a bargaining chip with great potential in the future. Only when you hold it in your hand before the chips really appreciate can you really get permission!

The Marquis of Caroline, as Minister of War, had to find a way to transfer himself to the War Administration. Naturally, there is a way - in fact, he doesn't need to come forward in person, as long as he secretly asks one of his cronies to handle it. Although he is only the Minister of War, this kind of transfer of personnel within the army is not under his control, but he has been in the military for so many years, and there is no way to do this? Not to mention anything else, isn't Miro already in the military headquarters now?

Besides, he decided that he was the illegitimate son of the emperor, and he must have thought that his majesty would be happy to agree to the transfer of himself to the position of a high-ranking official in the Military Affairs Bureau, and this kind of thing to increase the value of the emperor's son......

It's messed up...... Too Knowing......

Gadar didn't seem surprised to hear Roddy refuse—in fact, Roddy was thinking simply.

Before he came, the Marquis of Caroline had already confessed to him. This time, it doesn't matter if the other party rejects his offer.

After all, people are "the illegitimate son of the emperor", and it is not uncommon for the other party to have a high-ranking official position, the important thing is to make a gesture of wooing - to leave a good impression on the other party, and to establish a preliminary harmonious relationship will achieve the goal!

As for that scimitar, a big family of empires, do you still care about a knife?

Gifts don't have to be expensive, in fact, people in this status, what expensive gifts can't really impress people - the main thing is to do what they like!

Presumably, a young samurai would not refuse a beautiful, sharp weapon.

Gadar smiled and said, "Since Your Excellency doesn't want to, it doesn't matter...... It's just that the Marquis sincerely invites you, and when you return to the imperial capital, be sure to go to the Marquis's Mansion to get together. He looked at Roddy and seemed to have the intention of handing over the knife, and hurriedly said, "It's just that this scimitar must be accepted!"

Roddy smiled, didn't say much, and put the scimitar down.

In fact, he didn't mean to return the scimitar to the other party - this scimitar was a bit weird, but he would have to study it later, and maybe when he returned to the imperial capital, he would have to talk to Andy about the secrets carefully.

At least the Marquis of Caroline was not mistaken.

A person like Luo Di, he doesn't look at anything that is valuable. But a magical weapon can touch his heart.

The two chatted casually for a few more words, and Roddy was tepid, looking pampered and not shocked, and that composure was completely the natural temperament that had been honed on the battlefield before, but in Gadar's eyes, it was different: the more he affirmed the gaze of the Marquis of Caroline.

People with such a calm and calm temperament are definitely not ordinary people!!

The two of them were sitting on the edge of the makeshift camp, and as they were talking, they suddenly heard a sharp exclamation from the lake.

The exclamation was full of fear and surprise, and it was clearly a woman's voice!

"Ah!!" The exclamation had turned into a scream, and Roddy's face changed slightly, and before Gadar could react, Roddy had already rushed out like an arrow!
