Looking at the bow and arrow in his hand, Knight Marshall never expected that a crisis in the castle could be resolved with just a bow and arrow. Could this be the true ability of the master blacksmith
Abel watched Knight Marshall looking at the compound bow with more and more fascination. That expression was very familiar to Abel. It was the same expression when Knight Marshall looked at his beloved armor.
Abel screamed in his heart that Knight Marshall would not return the compound bow to him. Thinking about it, Abel stretched out his hand to take the compound bow from Knight Marshall.
The compound bow in Knight Marshall's hand seemed to have taken root. Abel pulled it several times but it didn't move at all.
"Abel, uncle treated you well, didn't he?" The smile on Knight Marshall's face reminded Abel of the expression of the Big Bad Wolf looking at Little Red Riding Hood when he was a child.
Abel couldn't help but shudder and nodded in a low voice: "Uncle Marshall is very good to me."
"Your Uncle Marshall has never had a good bow. You know, as an intermediate knight, he still doesn't have a decent bow. Every time I go out, I am embarrassed to bring a bow." Knight Marshall said pitifully. .
Abel rolled his eyes. Every time Knight Marshall goes out, he wears the best clothes, carries a magic sword, and wears the brightest armor. Even the horses are stronger than ordinary war horses. How can he go out with ordinary bows and arrows? Among the Marshall knights Abel knew, the most important thing was the high-end equipment. Ordinary equipment would not be carried around unless it was needed for battle.
Knight Marshall also knew that this bow must be very difficult to make, but how could he hand over something he had already obtained? This was not his style.
Today's record is incredible. 12 orcs were killed outside the castle. These were not ordinary orcs. If they were ordinary orcs, how could Knight Marshall hide in the castle and not dare to go out to fight? These are the least For orcs above level 6, every orc can use fighting spirit to fight. As an intermediate knight, Marshall Knight can defeat an orc alone, but orcs are originally more powerful than humans of the same level, with strong bodies and long lengths. Years of fighting have made orcs more conducive to combat than humans. Orcs are more like a combat machine.
Knight Marshall could no longer remember how many years he had not had this refreshing feeling. Standing on the wall, he shot an arrow at an orc, hitting wherever he pointed. This bow was like the messenger of death, and those who were hit by it would die.
Seeing the forty-year-old Marshall Knight acting cute in front of him, Abel felt defeated. He glanced at the compound bow in Marshall Knight's hand helplessly and distressedly. This super compound bow weighing more than 400 pounds was far away from him. He was getting further and further away, waving his hand, and Abel said: "Uncle Marshall, since you like it, just use it."
Knight Marshall laughed loudly, drew his bow, made a shooting motion, looked at Abel proudly, and said: "Only the most powerful knights can use this kind of divine bow."
"Uncle Marshall, if this bow is empty, it will damage many parts of the bow. I don't have any spare parts to repair it." Abel ignored Knight Marshall's actions that he thought were handsome and ruthlessly pointed out the bow's Contraindications for use.
Knight Marshall's laughter stopped, and he slowly recovered his power, trying to restore the bow string. However, the characteristics of this bow are also very obvious. When you start to draw the bow, you must use all your strength. The same goes for restoring the bow string at this time. The initial strength is not needed. How much, but as the bow string was retracted, the strength requirement became greater and greater, and a white light of fighting spirit appeared on the body of Knight Marshall. After finally leveling the bow string, Knight Marshall wiped the cold sweat on his head and observed carefully with some fear. He bowed his body, and he couldn't break the divine bow he had just grabbed because of his own showmanship.
Abel sighed and walked depressedly towards the wall. Now he had to go back to the blacksmith shop to make a compound bow. He also had to make two more, one for himself and one for his father, Knight Bennett. Abel He knew very well that since Knight Marshall had this compound bow, it wouldn't take long for him to show it off to Knight Bennett. If he didn't make one for Knight Bennett, Abel would feel sorry for himself, although Abel knew that his father, Knight Bennett, would not say anything, but his father would be very sad.
"Open the castle gate for me, drag the body back, and then bring back the mount." Knight Marshall loudly ordered the attendant cavalry waiting inside the castle gate.
After the gate of the castle was opened, ten cavalry attendants rushed out on horseback. The two neighing wargs on the battlefield saw the appearance of humans and suddenly rushed forward to attack the attendants.
Just after taking a few steps, two arrows flying out of the parapet pierced the heads of the wargs in both areas. The attendants looked at the lord in shining armor on the parapet with admiration. The power of the lord means the security of the territory and the guarantee of the servant's family.
In addition to the two wargs that were shot, there were four Fire Runners at the gate of the castle. The other mounts had already followed the escaped orcs. Only mounts like the Fire Runners were not very smart and did not care about their owners. Not counting loyalty, the four flaming bulls are of great value. They can be used or sold after training.
After the attendants took the corpse and the four flaming bulls back to the castle, Knight Marshall had already decided the fate of these flaming bulls. His carriage would be changed into an ox cart, two horses for himself and two for Abel. Knight Marshall feels that his arrangement has slightly reduced the guilt of robbing his adopted son's weapon. Even if this guilt is very small, Knight Marshall also knows that since Abel can make such a bow, he can make it. But if he doesn’t get this bow, with Abel’s temperament, he doesn’t know when he will be interested in making bows and arrows.
The crisis has been resolved. I believe that no more orcs will dare to come to Harry Castle to seek death. Knight Marshall ordered the guards to continue patrolling, and he can rest. These days, Knight Marshall has been wearing armor. As the master of the castle, Knight The pressure is very high.
After orcs appear near the castle, the nobles of the castle cannot leave their castle. This is a war rule for all mankind. This war rule requires that when human enemies appear in the noble territory, the nobles are not allowed to leave the territory. If they leave Territory, then it means that the noble gives up his territory.
This provision does not include wars between humans. In wars between humans, when victory cannot be won, admitting defeat is recognized by everyone. Nobles are rarely killed in wars between humans, unless there are many Deep hatred, otherwise no one would violate the provisions of the chivalry system regarding the treatment of noble prisoners of war.
Abel returned to the blacksmith shop and started the repetitive work of making compound bows. He asked for all the last four heavy bows in the warehouse. I believe that the Marshall Knight would not be dissatisfied with Abel's move. of.
It was time to make ball sand molds again. This time Abel made a few more. Abel made four more bearings. He even made a few large springs. This time Abel planned to modify a carriage by himself. Abel was filled with shadows. He was used to the smoothness of the car in his previous life, but the carriage in this life felt like it was dancing on rocks.
In two days, Abel spent all his energy on making compound bows. With the experience last time, the two compound bows made this time were more sophisticated. Because the orcs were driven away, Abel could leave the castle. Tested the long range shooting of the compound bow.
After improving the scale of the sight, it is divided into within 100 meters, 100 to 200 meters, 200 meters to 400 meters. The power of the bow is much worse beyond 400 meters. Abel estimates that the maximum range of the compound bow made this time is It is about 400 meters. No matter how far it is, it will not be able to achieve the killing effect. It will only hurt the enemy at most. Moreover, after it exceeds 400 meters, the speed of the bow and arrow will also slow down, and the enemy can easily avoid it.
After completing these two compound bows, Abel was a little anxious to send the bows to his father, Knight Bennett, so he proposed to Knight Marshall that he wanted to visit Bennett Castle.
