Lord of Hyranza

The main reason Suldak didn't like the scimitar was that the curved edge required another set of skills.

"How many magic crystals do you need for this blood-red crescent?" Looking at the blood-red crescent, Suldak asked curiously.

"15 magic spar." Manager Joey made his voice so low that only the two of them could hear it. Obviously he thought that since Surdak was a friend of Dale magician, he should give a little discount.

Suldak didn't expect that an enchanted scimitar would cost 15 magic crystals. He couldn't help but glance at the craftsman's sword on his waist, thinking that using this heavy sword is actually quite good.

Seeing that Suldak didn't say a word, Joey thought that Suldak didn't like the Blood Red Crescent. After all, the price he offered was already the bottom price. The price will not be lower than 15 magic spar.

He didn't expect that Suldak thought the scimitar was too expensive. He thought that a canonized knight who owned sulfur mine would never care about these magic crystals. Joey thought in his heart that Suldak didn't take that With a blood-red crescent, it must be that this scimitar is not high enough.

So he simply took Suldak to the central area of ​​the magic shop, where there were some independent square booths, and each booth had better magic weapons and armors, especially the one covered with velvet. In front of him was a silver straight knife. The shape of this knife was primitive and simple. There was no guard on the knife body. It looked like an infinitely magnified table knife. Looks a bit worn, even with a couple of not-so-noticeable cracks on the back.

When Suldak walked into the knife, he could feel the sharpness of the blade head-on. No wonder he wanted to put the knife in the most conspicuous position.

Joey did not pick it up from the knife holder on the stand, but introduced it to Surdak confidently: "This Grintis table knife is also good, I heard that Grintis is a cannibal The hero of the demon clan, it is said that his lunch menu will never lack dragon meat. For the ogre hero who is more than five meters tall, this knife should indeed be regarded as just a table knife. It can't cut dragon skin, but the blade of this knife is endowed with the magic property of 'sharpness', so this knife can not only easily penetrate into the hard skin of third-level monsters, but even sub-dragons can hardly resist it The sharpness of this knife."

"Such an excellent quality knife must be very expensive?" Suerdak asked tentatively. This single-edged long knife was very suitable for him, so he tried to ask the price.

Joey put on an expression of 'you really know how to do it', and said quickly: "Oh, this knife is a trophy obtained on the Gasgar plane, and there are still cannibals living in the depths of that plane. Demons, but you can see the traces left on the knife, which means it is very old, and it has been traded for many times in our business. The price of this knife is 64 magic crystals, if it is converted into gold coins about 450 gold coins."

At this time, a swordsman happened to pass by the two of them. Hearing Manager Joey's excited expression, he said unceremoniously to him: "A knife that can pierce dragon skin? In the deepest part, I'm afraid I can't find any dragons!"

This sentence is like pouring cold water on the head.

"Swordsman Hodgson, even if you don't speak, I won't think you are dumb..."

Suldak was speechless secretly, but he didn't expect that the price of this knife would be 65 magic spar.

Joey pulled Suldak away, and there was a dark blue short bow on the booth in front of him. He quickly took out the short bow and handed it to Suldak, and introduced him: "Look at this, how about it? This forest bow was made by the famous master bowmaker Kitteridge."

"It also has a name?" Suldak took the short bow. This short bow is very light. After holding it in his hand, he felt a cool breath coming from the short bow, and then felt that when his eyes looked around, he could Capture the surrounding conditions more keenly.

Joey introduced to Suldak: "Of course, it is named the Eye of Courage. It is endowed with the magic pattern of 'weakness detection'. It is an excellent forest bow. The price of this Eye of Courage is ten. Eight magic spar."

Suldak felt that this short bow was definitely worth the money, but it was not practical for him.

Seeing that Suldak didn't want to talk about it in detail, Joey put the Eye of Courage back on the shelf, and recommended other weapons to Suldak again without being discouraged, but then looked at a few swords For weapons, Suldak didn't even make a choice. Joey felt that the Suldak knights might not intend to buy magic weapons, and thought to himself: Otherwise, he would persuade the Suldak knights to trade gold coins directly for magic herbs.

Just as he was thinking about how to talk about this, he saw that the exhibition area of ​​magic weapons had come to an end, next to a pair of sharp-toothed daggers was a pair of very special shoes, and there happened to be a few guests discussing around those shoes, Su Erdak glanced curiously. Joey was very familiar with the pair of magic boots, and there were crowds of onlookers gathered here almost every day.

Joey walked over, pointed to a pair of weird green shoes on the booth and said, "These shoes look very special."

His voice was a little loud, which immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding guests. Manager Joey continued: "Yes, its name is more special. It is called 'Great Fairy's Toe'. As you can see, it is indeed made of big toes. The leather on the goblin's feet is made, and the magic effect on this pair of shoes does not come from the inscriptions, but the magic pattern of life itself. Wearing it has a 'hidden' effect in the jungle. This is what assassins and thieves must-have boots.”

A magic apprentice next to him also took the opportunity to say to his friends: "That's it, I heard that these are a pair of shoes with a 'hidden' effect, and the magic effect on them comes from the magic pattern of life, which is produced in the eastern continent. Fairy Forest, the magic pattern of life on it was deciphered by a magister a long time ago, so the shoes of this kind of magic pattern are not worth much now."

Surdak took a look at the pair of 'big goblin toes' and said to Joey: "It doesn't suit me!"

After introducing so many weapons in one go, Suldak failed to make a choice. Joey said a little discouraged: "If you like assault weapons, I have a good suggestion. Take a look at this..."

He brought Suldak to the wall. There was a big wooden stick hanging on the wall. This wooden stick was made of oak, and the wood grain was carved with complicated lines. Some magical metals were deeply embedded in it. Like a work of art.

"Is this a big stick?" Surdak asked uncertainly.

Manager Joey continued to introduce: "That's right, it's called the 'Fierce Oak', and the oak heart is used to make a wooden stick, and a certain enchanting master actually endowed this big wooden stick with the magical effect of 'repulsive', usually only in the Only by completely suppressing the opponent in terms of strength can the enemy be knocked back, but this big wooden stick has such an ability, but its shortcomings are also obvious, it is just a wooden stick..."

The meaning of Joey's words is also obvious. No matter how good the enchantment property on this wooden stick is, it is just a wooden stick and can be easily damaged.

Seeing so many enchanted weapons also opened up Suldak's horizons, but after walking around Suldak realized that the blood red crescent that Joey took out at the beginning was really the most suitable for him. The price is also the cheapest one.

So he wanted to go back to the counter and take a closer look at the Blood Red Crescent, so he walked there while discussing the Blood Red Crescent with Joey.

As soon as he walked to the counters, he saw several young swordsmen standing in front of the counters. Suldak reached for the Blood Red Crescent, but a young noble took the Blood Red Crescent in his hand first. Suldak turned his head to look over, and it turned out to be the swordsman Leonard that he saw at the Golden Acorn Hotel, and Miss Fanny standing beside Leonard, surrounded by several young nobles.

Swordsman Leonard saw Suldak, and smiled politely at him, but his eyes were a little cloudy. He did not forget the practical lesson that Suldak gave them that night in Handanar City. All the students who practiced in Handanar City were beaten up by him, and Leonard never thought that he would see Suldak in the business firm in Hailansa City. He saw that Suldak would His eyes fell on the blood-red crescent in his hand, and when he thought about it, he said to the clerk: "No matter how much this scimitar is...I bought it."

The clerk took a cautious look at Joey, saw that Joey didn't say anything, and said, "He needs you to pay 17 magic crystals."

Leonard readily took out 17 magic crystals from his purse and handed them to the clerk, grabbed the scimitar casually, gave Suldak a provocative look, then put on a haughty look, and a group of The friend left in front of him and walked towards the armor area of ​​the firm.

Joey didn't expect to see such a scene, he looked at Leonard's back, and said to Suldak with some regret: "Knight Suldak, if you showed the Grintis knife just now, It’s good to buy it!”

Then he clicked his tongue and added: "I just like this kind of high-flyer who doesn't even bother to talk about the price..."

Suldak smiled slightly, and took the shining saber in his hand. In fact, he had an inexplicable feeling for this shining saber at first glance. He could feel the magic waves flowing slowly on the saber. He and Joey Walking around in the firm, he found that apart from 'Grintis' Knife', there was no enchanted weapon like the Shining Saber, which made him feel inexplicable.

When he held the Shining Saber in his hand, a strange feeling was transmitted to the palm of his hand along the blade and handle. The saber seemed to be connected to his hand, and the sacred aura in his body flowed uncontrollably to the green of the saber. In the body of the saber, Suldak quickly put the shining saber back on the counter, and asked the clerk, "How much does this shining saber cost?"

"10 magic crystals, if you really want to buy them, I can give you a discount..." As he said that, the clerk looked at Manager Joey with some hesitation, and immediately added: "But I must remind you that it has more than just workmanship. Apart from being excellent, the magic lines on the blade are useless to you, unless you are a magician."

"Its selling price..." Suldak asked.

Joey said on the side: "8 magic spar, if you are willing to buy it, in addition to those magic herbs, you can give me another magic spar... But you really plan to buy this shining handle A saber?"

Joey finally confirmed again, and he felt that it was necessary to make a kind reminder to Suldak.

"That's right!" Suldak said with great certainty.

"All right……"

Joey could only nod to the clerk.

……

After buying the shining saber, Suldak couldn't wait to return to the dormitory of the Knight Academy. When he passed the next room, he heard voices in the dormitory.

He stopped, stood at the door and knocked, the door opened, the girl Linna's delicate face appeared from the crack of the door, seeing that it was Suldak outside the door, she immediately pushed the door open with a smile on her face , said enthusiastically to Suldak: "Knight Suldak, good afternoon!"

Suldak stood at the door and greeted Linna: "Is your training journey over?"

Lina smiled and said, "Yes, Knight Suldak, if it wasn't for the heavy snow, I think I can come back at least a few days earlier!"

She had frostbite on her face, obviously this practice was not as easy as she said, Nedra was standing on the terrace drying the washed clothes, when she saw Suldak, she snorted obediently call.

Suldak didn't go into the dormitory, but asked at the door: "How is it? What have you gained from this experience?"

Linna returned to the room, took out a string of pendants from her luggage and handed them to Suldak. It was a pendant made of a forest gray wolf fang. It was very simple and should have been made by two young girls. Souvenirs, proving that they hunted Timberwolves during this experience.

Seeing that Suldak took it and carefully put it in her pocket, Linna smiled into a crescent moon, and said to Suldak: "It's nothing, just hunted some forest gray wolves. Originally, we I also met a blue ice deer, but unfortunately lost it in the pine forest!"

Suldak chatted with the two girls for a while at the door of the dormitory before returning to the dormitory.

Chapter 380 Winter Hunt

Back in the dormitory, Suldak placed the shining saber on the desk.

The last slant of sunlight in the evening passed through the window, leaving a dim light in the room. Surdak poured a glass of water and downed it in one gulp. Then he sat down on the walnut wood chair and began to observe the saber in front of him.

The blade of this saber is nearly four feet long, nearly a foot longer than the blade of the Craftsman's Sword. The blade plated with thorium is slightly curved, and the blade is covered with dark dark lines. These dark lines look like a layer of fine scales from a distance, but when you get closer, you find that each scale is engraved with tiny magic runes.

A trace of mana flowed continuously in the scales of the blade, and it was precisely because of this fluctuation of mana that Suldak was attracted by this shining saber in the trading house.

But what made Suldak decide to buy this saber was that the moment he picked it up, there was an inexplicable force on the saber absorbing the sacred aura in his body.According to the clerk of the firm, due to the damage to the gemstone base, the magic pattern circle on the knife cannot be operated normally, so the low-light lighting technique on the knife is also doomed to be unusable.

Suldak bought this saber back mainly because the magic circle on the blade body of this saber resonated with the sacred aura on his body.He picked up the saber very cautiously, and suddenly there was a kind of suction force from the handle wrapped with the swordfish skin ribbon, continuously injecting the sacred breath in his body into the saber, and the blade of the saber actually exuded a layer of faint Holy light comes.

That feeling is very strange, the sacred breath is like water in a pond, flowing smoothly into the dug canal, the magic pattern on the knife body is like a canal, and Suldak is a pond, those The sacred breath poured into the blade from Suldak, forming a closed loop that circulated continuously in the blade, and there was no need to inject too much power of holy light in the follow-up, the blade could maintain this brightness.

Seeing the faint sacred light radiating from the blade, Suldak was a little speechless, thinking that he would buy such an expensive saber just to become a living target for archers during night battles?

Suldak was secretly annoyed, as if the only feature of this shining saber was that after injecting the holy breath into the blade, it could maintain the holy light on the blade without too much effort. This kind of holy light obviously has the ability to heal.

A light flashed in Suldak's mind, he put down the shining saber in his hand, took the craftsman's sword hanging from his waist in his hand, and infused it with a sacred breath.As the sacred breath in each node of the body is continuously injected into the craftsman's sword, the holy light shining on the sword is much dimmer than the shining saber, and it will continue to be injected.

He found that under the blessing of the 'twilight lighting technique' attached to the shining saber, the holy light transmitted by the saber was actually magnified invisibly.

Suldak pushed open the door leading to the terrace, and shouted to Linna who lived in the dormitory next door: "Linna, do you want me to treat the frostbite on your face for you..."

The window of the dormitory was suddenly pushed open by the two girls. Linna poked her head out of the window, stared at Suldak standing on the terrace, and readily agreed, "Okay!"

The two girls only wore cotton pajamas, and ran from the dormitory next door to Suldak's room. The frostbite on Linna's face was not serious, but there were two lumps the size of silver coins on the highest part of her cheeks. It becomes extremely itchy, and if you can't help but scratch it, it will leave scars. This kind of frostbite will gradually get better as long as the weather turns warmer, but the next winter will be slightly colder, and the frostbite will recur.

Suldak made Linna sit on a chair, and faced the girl Linna with the shining saber.

Linna stared nervously at the shining saber in Suldak's hand, and asked him nervously, "Knight Suldak, are you going to treat my wound...?"

"Don't worry, I promise...you won't scratch your face." Suldak swung the shining saber in his hand and assured Linna.

Lin Na's face turned pale with fright, but she nodded obediently, and closed her eyes facing the shining saber.

With the faint power of holy light emitted from the knife, the power of holy light approached Linna's cheeks, and the frostbite on her cheeks began to swell visibly with the naked eye. Seeing the frostbite on Linna's face disappear before her eyes.

He also planned to try the effect with the craftsman's sword, and saw Nedra replacing Linna in the chair.

"Nedra, are you also frostbitten?" Suldak asked Nedra.

Nedra has a shy and introverted personality. She shook her head quickly and said in a low voice: "It's not frostbite..." After speaking, she rolled up the cotton sleeve on her arm, wrapped a thick bandage on her left arm, and untied it. The bandage was unwrapped, and the arm was swollen like a steamed bun, and the four blood holes had scabbed over. This injury was obviously left by a wild animal.

"Has the wound been treated?" Many wild beasts have toxins in their mouths. If they are not treated properly, the chances of infection are high.

Before Nedra could speak, Lina, who was sitting next to her, said for her: "I took a small sip of the antidote on the spot. During that battle, many students were bitten by forest gray wolves. The accompanying instructor was worried that the wolf teeth would be contaminated. I got the virus, so everyone was asked to drink a little antidote, but there were only two bottles of antidote, and each person could only drink a little."

Suldak said to the two girls: "It's okay, the injury is not too serious, but because it was bitten by a wolf, there may be scars on the arm."

Hearing what Suldak said, the girl Nedra's face became much more relaxed.

Afterwards, no matter whether Suldak used the Craftsman's Sword or directly transmitted the power of the Holy Light to the palm of his hand, he found that the healing effect was obviously not as good as using the Shining Saber, and the sacred aura in the nodes in his body was consumed even more quickly.

The two girl neighbors next door returned to their room after simple treatment. Looking at the shining saber in his hand, Suldak felt that the shining saber was really worth the money.

……

In recent days, Suldak has been squatting in the library whenever he is free.

He learned from Darcy Christie that the junior knight academy mainly teaches riding skills and basic knight qualities to apprentice knights. As for the professional skills such as knight halos, they are knowledge taught by the advanced knight academy. Halo courses, but it is said that there should be such books in the college library.

Suldak has been to the library so many times, but he didn't find any books introducing knight halos on the library shelves. However, he believed that what Dacie Christie said was definitely not groundless, so he kept searching around in the library, and finally let him know. In the corner of a bookshelf in the library, he found three books about knight halos for beginners. Standing in front of the bookshelf, he looked at the three books of knight halos side by side in front of him speechlessly, feeling deeply. Thinking: It's normal not to see them, they are hidden in the most remote corner of the bookshelf, and there are only these three books in total: the halo of life recovery, the halo of defense, and the halo of strength.

Surdak, who was born as a shield warrior, chose the halo of power without hesitation.

Books on knight halos can only be learned at the Advanced Knight Academy, mainly because these advanced skills can only be borrowed from the energy in the body to release auras of various effects only after the knights have comprehended the Qi in their bodies.

Suldak did not find any books on tactics and battle qi related to shield warriors in the library, but he considered that since he could sense the sacred aura in his body, he was doomed to give up the training of warriors and learn the 'power halo' instead. For Suldak, this kind of knight skill released the aura of power, which was nothing more than the holy breath drawn into the body to circulate in the body according to a fixed path. It only took him half a day to create a faint whirlwind under his feet.

Suldak knew that the halo of power was very weak, but that was only because he was not yet very proficient in using the halo.

It's a pity that there are no knight skills in the library that can be learned except for riding and aura. The academy requires apprentice knights to practice riding at the knight training ground. Knights who graduate from the junior academy mainly Join the heavy cavalry regiment, so that at least during military service, you can avoid entering the infantry regiment as cannon fodder.

During this period, Suldak also carefully read the "Self-Cultivation of the Magic Swordsman" lent to him by Daxi Christie, and finally understood the true meaning of the so-called dual cultivation of magic and martial arts. In other words, it is mainly based on swordsman cultivation, but some magic will also be practiced based on the magic elements that the body can perceive. In addition to the four magic elements of wind, fire, water and earth, there are also light and darkness, undead spells, and so on.

Since Baron Grenfell was pushed to the guillotine, the city of Hailansa has completely calmed down. The members of the Black Magic Priory hid in the dark, and the bandit group on the outskirts of Hailansa city also disappeared. On a cold night, some homeless people still froze to death outside the city, and life in the mountain city seemed to have become a lot quieter.

In the past few days, Daxi didn't have any free time, mainly because the friends who came from Bena City needed her to entertain them personally.

……

In this way, finally on the weekend, the winter hunting held by young nobles every winter was ushered in.

Suldak promised Daci Christie to participate in the winter hunting activities, so he rode Gu Bolai horse to the scheduled meeting place in the morning - Hailansa Victory Memorial Square.

This square is located in front of the castle of the Christie family. When Suldak arrived, there were at least 30 young nobles gathered in the square.

In the winter morning, even if the sun is rising, the cold wind is still a bit cold on the face.

Not long after, many magic caravans came to the square one after another. Behind those magic caravans, there were actually some docile ponies. There are also many noble ladies joining.

Suldak and these young nobles did not know each other, so naturally he would not approach them, but just waited outside, sitting on a bench by the bush wall to appease his old companions. This ancient Bolai horse followed him back from the battlefield of the plane He took out a handful of beans from his arms, and Gu Bolaima's warm and moist tongue kept licking his palm, and rolled the beans into his mouth with a few strokes.

Carl and Byrd Tax Officer came together. I didn't expect that Bird Tax Officer would also participate in the winter hunting activities. After the two of them rushed over, people kept saying hello to them. Obviously, Karl's social circle is very wide. Among this group of young people Among the nobles, there are very few people who don't know Karl, and even the Byrd tax collector frequently greets him.

A team of guarding knights and three magic caravans slowly drove out from Christie's Castle. When the three magic caravans stopped at the Hailansa Victory Memorial Square, Dacie Christie walked out of the car wearing a light leather armor. Swordsman Leonard and Miss Fanny, who came all the way from Bena Province, stood beside Darcy Christie, and the three chatted with great interest as they walked.

Seeing Dacie Christie appear, the young nobles waiting on the Victory Memorial Square gathered around and greeted Dacie Christie familiarly.

Dacie Christie saw Suldak standing outside the crowd with his horse from a distance, so she nodded to him from a distance.

After that, everyone didn't say much, and a group of people left Hailansa City in a mighty manner facing the rising sun.

Carl, tax collector Byrd, Suldak, and Baron Llewellyn rode on horses, talking and laughing along the way, and this was also Suldak's circle of friends in Hailansa. After listening to Karl's introduction, Suldak knew that Bird's tax collector's territory happened to border on the hunting area, and the villa he built was also on the edge of the winter hunting area, not far from the gathering place of this winter hunting.

So this time Karl decided to spend two nights in Bird Tax Collector's villa. The Christie family built a residence in the Winter Hunting Farm, which is considered very large, but with so many people participating in the Winter Hunting, it is estimated that the accommodation must be very tight, and there will inevitably be some The squires and servants lived temporarily in the carriages of the magic caravan.

Unexpectedly, the Bird tax collector's family also had a glorious history in the city of Hailansa. However, due to the inaction of the next few generations, in the Bird tax collector's generation, the family territory has almost shrunk to one-tenth of its heyday. One, and the generation of tax collector Byrd can hardly keep the title of baron, the family of tax collector Byrd is about to disappear in the tide of history.

Suldak glanced at Bird's beer belly. Obviously, even if he was sent to the battlefield, it would be extremely difficult to make meritorious deeds and keep his title and territory.

Bird tax officer was wearing light green light leather armor and covered with a thick leather coat. He enthusiastically introduced the surrounding land to Suldak along the way. Obviously, he was quite familiar with this area. When standing at the boundary marker, the Byrd tax officer can tell exactly whose territory it is...

Chapter 381 Snow Lake

The winter hunting grounds of the nobles are about 50 miles away from the city of Hailansa. It takes more than three hours to ride a horse. There are eleven magic caravans in the hunting team, and the road is covered with a layer that has been stepped on very hard. The heavy snow, which greatly reduced the speed of the hunting team, all the way through the red pine forest, all the way north into the rolling mountains.

The mountains here are not steep, and there are stretches of woodland and open land among the mountains. Bushes are overgrown on the open land. Some small forest beasts fled into the depths of the jungle when they saw the horse team.
