The banquet lasted until late at night, and finally turned into a meeting of wine fights and jousting competitions. Siegel watched as the warriors at the starting outpost showed off their martial arts, giving rewards from time to time. Or the wine from the elves, or the dagger of the dragon's teeth, but the most popular is the magic weapon of the Heim Collar.

Magic longsword and magic greatsword, this is the latest assembly line product. All swords use the same magic pattern, allowing the wielder to use the power of lightning.

The use of lightning as an energy attack is also considered. First of all, the technology of Nakusi is relatively simple when it comes to lightning, which can greatly reduce costs. Lightning weapons are more useful for dealing extra damage when attacking metal armor. In addition, the light of the lightning weapon is instantaneous, unlike the Yang Yan Sword of the half-orc hum Ke, which looks like a huge torch.

He brought three of these weapons with him, one of which was a longsword for Mohr, with his name engraved on it. He also gave the other swords and greatswords to Mohr, so that he could reward them to the knights of the starting outpost.

If it was given by Siegel himself, it would weaken Moore's authority at the starting outpost, and it would not be above board. So after handing him the magic weapon, Siegel left the banquet under the pretext of letting the outpost decide the winner for himself.

Seeing Siegel leave, Evan followed.

The climate on the west side of the Walled Mountains is much colder than on the other side, and one of the downsides of the magnificent plains is that the winds are stronger. The clouds in the sky were blown away, revealing a silvery moonlight, and the sea of grass looked quiet and serene in the moonlight.

"Why aren't you in there?" said Siegel to Evan standing beside him, "I thought you liked to watch the jousting scene the most." ”

"I'm afraid I can't help but go down and mingle, how embarrassing it would be if I became a champion?" Evan rubbed his face, and the flush actually disappeared. Except for Siegel, it seems. He also had a way to avoid the physical and mental damage of alcohol.

"If you have time. How about repairing a sword for me. Let's see if we can add some magic effects. "The sword in my hand has been used for a long time, and there are tiny cracks on the inside, and I don't know when it will break. ”

"Show me. Siegel stretched out his hand: "You're a member of the royal family, can't you even exchange good weapons?"

"There are divine weapons in the treasury of the kingdom, but this long sword was won by me in the tournament, and it has been with me for more than ten years. ”

He recalled the first time he participated in a knight's tournament, when he was using a fake identity. As an illegitimate child, he did not have a birth certificate and a certificate of ancestry. But he has good martial arts. In particular, the prize for the winner of the swordsmanship that time was the Guardian Sword produced by the Mage Guild, which made him even more favorite.

Fight your way through the battle, and the top six sword winners will battle it out at the end to determine a winner. Many knights, in order to win, wisely conserve their physical strength and do not take risks easily. Only he is full of enthusiasm and constantly attacking, as if he has infinite enthusiasm.

He ended up winning with a narrow move and became the champion, but Aaron recognized him. His name was called. In full view, because of the falsification of identity. He was stripped of the title and, naturally, could not get the final prize.

Aaron realized that he had done "something wrong", and he cried profusely, begging His Majesty all the time. But it is precisely because he is a king that he needs to appear more fair and just. The king stood up and announced that he would exchange weapons with the Guardian Sword with the people present, and that it would be fine.

The Earl of Braun, from Lake Angle, offered his sword in exchange with the king. The sword was called the "Bonfire", a refined weapon from the craftsmen of Lake Elliott, which now lies in Siegel's hands. Although it doesn't have any magical abilities and isn't one of the best among refined weapons, it is a result of victory, so it's significant.

"This weapon is interesting, how do you use it?" said Siegel after a moment of careful observation, "It stands to reason that the inside of this sword has been broken and should have broken a long time ago." ”

"I didn't want someone to change my sword until I met you. Evan said, "This campfire is like me, and as long as there is breath left, it won't break." ”

"Don't be so mysterious, a weapon is a weapon, how can there be a reason not to be damaged?" Siegel thought for a moment, pulled out his star dust, and handed it over: "Except for this one." ”

Stardust looked unpretentious, and it didn't have any blades except for the tip of the sword, and it seemed that it couldn't even peel an apple. But in Evan's opinion, this sword is the ultimate pursuit of a swordsman. It is a pure embodiment of the essence of swordsmanship, "unwavering stabbing".

He danced a few times, loved it, but returned Stardust to Siegel. "It's your weapon, and I can feel the sword's connection to you from above. You'd better focus on fixing the campfire for me. ”

Siegel looked at the sword, then at the stubborn Evan, and sighed. "Okay, I'll make an exception. There is a way to design magical items, and I have always had only ideas, not finished products. Let's use you for experiments!"

"What's the plan?" Evan asked, rubbing his hands.

"Breaking the Demons. ”

Since it is to make a long sword for "His Majesty the King", it cannot be sloppy, and some materials Siegel does not have with him, so he still needs to prepare slowly. It is also necessary to prepare the team that will go to the blind date meeting, which must appear to be deterrent and not relax the defense of the starting outpost. In fact, Siegel already knew that there would be no danger in this trip when he heard the name "Dio", but in order to surprise Moore, he decided to keep it a secret.

Besides, Moore's grandfather Fezak is still here, and it is most appropriate for him to arrange it. So Siegel had a rare time to go with Evan to the market at the starting outpost.

The one who guided them was Lille, a halfling.

The bazaar is just outside the gates of the fort, and from morning it is lined with vendors selling turnips, onions and sacks of barley. Tribal people from the Savage Grass Sea gather to sell the flesh and skin, dairy products, and various medicinal herbs of their prey, from hemostatic herbs to aphrodisiac kudzu root.

Opposite them were merchants selling weapons and armor, and from the prices they shouted, they were certainly not fresh from the blacksmith's shop. Siegel glanced at them, most of them had been through war, and perhaps had served several masters, either from the battlefield or stolen goods. However, the people here are more concerned about the price, and they don't care too much about the brown blood stains on the chain mail, the pits in the helmet, and the arrow holes in the half-body armor. The people here are very practical, and anything that can still be used after tinkering with it is a good thing.

Fresh roasted voles can be bought for a small copper plate, and brand new buckskin gloves can be bought for a few silver coins. Siegel also saw a huge python skin, which was very clean, and could be taken back to make a mat for Isaac to spread under him. This thing only costs ten gold coins, and Siegel doesn't even bother to bargain.

With a range of food items in her hands, such as roasted voles, roasted rabbits, and roasted sheep's eyes, Lille has filled her backpack along the way, and she feels that this is her happiest day. It all came from the generosity of Count Siegel Squid, who had managed to say the full name without having to borrow a note.

Halflings are a race of easy satisfaction and hospitality, and she is determined to give the Earl a gift. Without shoes, handkerchiefs are the most important thing for halflings - a logic that has always been difficult for foreigners to understand. Lille's eyes looked around, and finally they fixed their eyes on a good handkerchief.

When she spends a small amount of money, she doesn't feel sorry for the price at all, after all, it's a gift for good people. The suspicious tears dripping from the corners of the eyes must have been caused by the seasoning of the barbecue accidentally falling in, and it will be good to wash your face after a while.

"My lord, this is the handkerchief I gave you. The halfling held the gift alof, with a bright smile on his face.

Siegel frowned, and hurriedly took the piece of cloth. It's a black piece of fabric that's smooth and tough to the touch. When the light hits it, it seems to be completely absorbed, and there is no reflective feeling like leather.

He'd seen this cloth on the Black Man Assassins, how could it be found west of the Walled Mountains?

"Where did you buy it, can you take me to see it?" Siegel was worried about scaring the timid halfling, so he said kindly, "This is a good handkerchief, I want to buy more." ”

"Over here!" the halfling weaved through the crowd, and Siegel and the others quickly followed.

But when Lille returned to the place where he had shopped, the seller was nowhere to be found. The vendors on both sides had an impression of Lille, but had no memory of her shopping process.

"It was right here. Lille was about to cry, "Why is he missing after a while?"

"He?" Siegel crouched down, comforted the halfling, and said to her, "Tell me what that man looks like." ”

"It was a good-looking man with a thin sword, curly hair, blue eyes, and a scar at the corner of the eye, but it wasn't ugly. Lille gritted his finger and recalled: "His scar was in the shape of tears, but not in the shape of tears, but one by one." By the way, he has a kind of perfume smell that women love to use, which is strange and smoky, and I don't like it very much. ”

Siegel took out his wand, put a little on his forehead, and drew a circle in the air. An arcane magic pattern appeared in the air, slowly turning, and began to gather power in the air.

Object locating can analyze the information left in the air, of which olfactory signals are the most important part. But no matter how Siegel positioned it, he didn't find the perfume scent that Lille was talking about.

"Lille, give me your wallet," Siegel thought to himself, "I'll double it back for you later." ”

The halfling threw his wallet at Siegel with lightning speed, but immediately began to regret it - how could he forget to count how much money was in it!

Siegel uses Lille's coins as clues to find other Lille's coins. Soon, he made a discovery.

They followed Siegel through the market and stopped at the door of a restaurant. It's a place that sells flatbread and broth, and it only costs a few copper plates to fill your stomach. The halfling's coins were all in a small cloth bag, under a bite of bread, but the mysterious man was still nowhere to be seen.

Looking at the flustered halfling, Siegel smiled and touched her head and gave her a whole bag of gold coins. (To be continued.) )
