Whenever guests arrive, Aldington's favorite part is the gift receiving session.

This time the Durotan family arrives, and each of them prepares a gift for Aldington.

Durontambon gave him a direct gift of a manor plant, a pea estate on the edge of Petite Versailles, which mainly cultivated peas, soybeans, mung beans and other legume crops. Not only the highly valuable manor, but even the serfs on the manor were also transferred to Oldington.

It can be said that, with the addition of the fields sent by some of the guests before, the fields under Aldington's name can add up to the area of three estates.

He also had the mind to piece these fields together by means of substitution, and then cultivate them according to his own ideas.

Lady Alicia gave him a precious oil painting by a great painter thousands of years ago, which would have sold for more than a hundred leva if it had been auctioned. It's just that, as a gift from the Marquise, unless Aldington is on the verge of bankruptcy, he is embarrassed to sell it, so he can only hang it in the castle.

Madame Norina gave him a gown, not magical equipment, but pure clothes, made of luxurious materials and finely worked.

Aldington prefers this dress to an oil painting, after all, it can be worn to a banquet.

What pleased him the most was the gift from Viscount Duric, which was a set of weapons - the Enchanted Meteorite Cavalry Lance, which was divided into an Enchanted Light Lance, three Enchanted Heavy Spears, and seven Enchanted Javelins.

"The light spear is enchanted with earth-based magic, Rock Burst." Duerikla led Aldington to the outside of the castle to test the power of the Enchanted Meteorite Cavalry Lance.

As the enchanted light spear in his hand shone brightly, a sharp cone-shaped rock suddenly protruded from the ground, a creation condensed by magic. The rock held on for less than a minute before it snapped and shattered into powder, leaving only a large pit and powdery dirt in the ground.

Aldington's eyes lit up, and he felt that the enchanted weapon was powerful.

Imagine that the two are fighting a duel with guns, and suddenly a rock thorn emerges from the ground, and if you can't do it, you can pierce the opponent to the heart.

"This is the work of the enchantment master of the Gray Iron Castle, it is fully charged, it can release ten rock protrusions at one time, and after the magic is exhausted, it will take a day to recharge." Doelick continued, "If there is a flaw, it is that the release of the rock protrusion has a warning and is easy to dodge. ”

The harbinger he was referring to was that the Enchanted Light Spear emitted a white light every time it unleashed the Rock Protrusion.

Aldington took the enchanted light spear, it was very heavy, at least thirty kilograms in weight, and it was a bit difficult for him to use it now: "Sir, I like it very much, the defect of the precursor is nothing, and when the battle is in full swing, it may be able to disturb the opponent's mind." ”

"If you like it." Dulick smiled and began to introduce the Enchanted Heavy Spear.

The enchanted heavy gun is also enchanted with magic, which is the magic flotation technique of the wind system, and its main role is to reduce the weight of the enchanted heavy gun, so that it can be held more steadily when charging with the gun, and the bonus to combat power is not large.

This is followed by the enchanted javelin, which is enchanted with ice magic - ice spikes, once the enemy is stabbed, the magic will release itself, freezing the enemy's body fluids into thorns, causing secondary damage, the energy consumption is not high, but the power is definitely powerful.

"This set of gifts is too valuable, sir."

"It's nothing, you follow me to learn riding and fighting, you always have to buy a set of handy equipment, I simply bought it for you in advance."

The heir of the marquis family is Haoshuang.

This set of enchanted meteoric iron riding spears, I'm afraid that Baron Aureno will be greedy when he sees it, and as a result, Dulick gave it away casually.

Of course.

Sending such a valuable gift must also be an emotional investment that will affect Aldington's political tendencies in the future - the Imperial Baron can vote in the Baronial Council, and many high-level policies need to be voted on by the Parliament, and for the great nobles, these voting rights are very important.

After all, the interests of the kingdom are, to put it bluntly, the interests of the royal family, as well as the interests of the great nobles.

"I will study hard and will not live up to this set of riding guns!" Aldington, who is soft-mouthed, short-handed, and mentally in his thirties, feels that it doesn't matter whether the teacher is old or not, the important thing is to be able to learn, "I can't wait to learn riding with you, sir." ”

Dulick nodded in the demeanor of a teacher: "Very good, keep this momentum, young people should be enterprising and study diligently." ”

Next.

Aldington personally took his servants and carried this set of enchanted meteorite cavalry spears to his equipment collection room and put them away. Looking at the shelves of equipment hanging on the wall, he smiled happily, and the shelves that were originally sparse and bright were finally slowly filled with a variety of equipment.

Including his sword of the night frost, it hangs on the shelf.

If he could, he would have tucked all of this equipment into Valkyrie's fingers. Unfortunately, Valkyrie's wrench only has a cube of space, similar to a sphere, and the length of the Sword of Night Frost has exceeded the diameter of a spatial sphere. Not to mention longer light guns, and heavy guns of more than five meters.

This is also the meaning of the existence of the knights, so many equipped weapons, no one carries them, and the knights alone can't take them to the battlefield at all.

"The Evening Frost Sword is a rune weapon, and the Enchanted Meteorite Cavalry Lance is an enchanted weapon." He squinted at the sword and spear, comparing the strengths and weaknesses of the two weapon types.

Rune weapons and equipment are the work of rune craftsmen, and through the composition of different runes, they give weapons and equipment special effects, such as slashing, sharpness, tenacity, etc.

Enchanted weapons and equipment are the work of enchanters, and magic is attached to ordinary weapons and equipment, so as to give the weapon and equipment the effect of releasing magic, and you can choose from a variety of magic.

Strictly speaking, runes belong to the decomposition symbols of magic, and different runes represent different subtle powers, and the combination of different runes can reflect different properties. Magic is a special composition of runes, forming the eight energy systems of water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, light, ice and darkness, which are the embodiment of complex power.

I can't say who is good or bad in the rune weapons and equipment, and who is bad, it's just that they have taken different power routes.

In fact.

The armament of the Rafah continent, there is no strict classification.

However, according to the nature of casting, it can be roughly divided into ordinary equipment, enchanted equipment, rune equipment, magic equipment, prayer equipment, and phantom weapons. Blacksmiths and tailors forge ordinary equipment, enchanters make enchanted equipment, runesmiths make rune equipment, and matrix scholars make magical equipment.

Priests, through the power of faith, give special properties to equipment, such as a chalice that can hold holy water.

Weapons blessed by phantom beasts and Valkyries will continue to be impregnated with power, and eventually become a weapon between the physical and the illusory - phantom weapons. The knight itself is strong enough, coupled with the ability to unite with phantom beasts and Valkyries, and equipped with phantom weapons, which has developed a knightly civilization and occupies a dominant position.

Furthermore.

Some phantom weapons, which shine in battle, are sung by the people, and over time shine like classic poems.

Such phantom weapons, which are almost indelible, are called artifacts.

"The better the quality of the materials, the higher the craftsmanship, the better the weapons will be made, and after I am promoted to Phantom Beast Knight, I must make the best weapon!" Aldington thought to himself, "Then transform it into a phantom weapon, and when I become a dragon knight, it should become an artifact!" ”
