After traveling thousands of miles and more than half a month, Enleco finally arrived in Grant, the youngest and most vibrant city.
Enleco has dreamed of coming to this place for a long time.
Although no one among the many travelers who came to the grocery store had seen this mysterious city with their own eyes, countless rumors filled him with fantasy at a young age.
There are three cities in the world that are widely praised by the world.
The first one is Vedsk, the capital of the Kaaoch Kingdom. It is a city made of bronze and marble, full of grandeur and grandeur. It is regarded as a symbol of secular kingship.
The other one is Xu Rui in the Kingdom of Leiding. This golden-red city located on a small island in the middle of the river is always shrouded in the light of the rising sun. The world calls it a land blessed by the gods.
The last one is Grant in front of us. Just like Xu Rui, what is really praised is the city in the center that is so white that it seems to be carved out of a whole piece of jade.
The poet uses the most beautiful words to describe it.
Countless beautiful music sings its beauty, it is a solid cloud, it is a pure and flawless jade, it deserves to be called the place closest to heaven.
Just like the sacred mountain that the tribe once worshiped, there is also a snow-white mountain standing in the center.
If the sacred mountain looks like an eagle spreading its wings, then the city is like a white silk falling from the sky.
Grant can be called the tallest city. Buildings are built from halfway up the mountain, with smooth and steep cliffs below.
The building rises slowly along a spiral corridor that serves as both a staircase and the main thoroughfare of the city.
If we say that the beauty of Vedsk lies in the magnificent squares and the many exquisite sculptures placed in the squares, and if we say that the beauty of Xu Rui lies in the various shapes and forms that this city has, As for ancient buildings; then the beauty of Grant lies in the layout of the entire city.
The roofs and platforms are cleverly connected together to form stacked small squares. Corridor rope bridges extend between the squares and connect them into the same whole.
From a close distance, it looks like a bouquet of pure white flowers, or a huge toon tree with lush branches and leaves.
The farther you go to the top, the more perfect the layout of the city becomes, and the more exquisite and beautiful the buildings become.
The buildings at the top emitted bursts of dazzling golden light, which originally came from the sun.
But what amazed Enleco the most was still the city’s snow-white outer walls.
The steep stone wall at the bottom twists and turns like ripples, and ripples like the wrinkles of a skirt.
Although the stone wall is zigzag and wrinkled, it is as smooth as a bright mirror. There is no motley color visible on the huge stone wall, as if it is a piece of pure white jade.
Looking at this city in the sky, Enleco was indeed a little obsessed.
If we had to find a flaw in this heavenly city, we could only say that it is too pure and flawless, and lacks a trace of earthly vitality.
However, the huge and busy city extending in all directions at the foot of this celestial city makes up for this only flaw.
This is the most vibrant and energetic place Enleco has ever seen.
Having traveled half of the world, Enleco has also seen many bustling and noisy cities.
The prosperity of civilization has caused those bustling cities to lack wild vitality. Only during festival celebrations, people who usually follow the rules try to indulge themselves as much as possible.
Every day here is a celebration, and everyone seems to be immersed in a carnival.
Grant City at the foot of the mountain is completely different from Grant City on the mountain. This place completely belongs to the human world.
Against the backdrop of the celestial city, this place seems to be a dwarf next to a giant.
Among many big cities, this is the lowest city. Further out, where it connects to the boundless grassland, there are countless grassland pastoral tents scattered there.
In the distance, herds of cattle and sheep were grazing, and hundreds of horses roamed freely there.
This is a paradise for grassland herdsmen.
The people on the grassland are less restrained and more wild. The children who grew up in the wilderness are full of energy and strong, and they jump around in the city.
Enleco liked this city very much, he was deeply fascinated by it.
He really wanted to have a good time in the city, climb up to the heavenly city, and enjoy the endless prairie of Montita from the air.
But everything will have to wait until they settle down.
Enleco followed the traveling tribe and found a temporary place to stay on the outskirts of the city.
This place is close to Grant Lake, and the water plants grow extremely luxuriantly. The reason why there are no tribes living here, according to the person who led the way, is because there is inevitably some fog around the lake at night.
The carts were unloaded one by one and the tents were propped up one by one. The strong young men laid deep wooden stakes around the perimeter and fences made of bamboo guarded the tribe's territory.
But the most important thing is to allow the cattle and sheep to settle down. Half a month's long journey has made the originally fat and strong cattle and sheep a lot thinner. The rich pasture around them will make them recover quickly.
In addition, another major event in the tribe is to rekindle the blazing fire. For these grassland people, the blacksmith shop in the tribe is always the most valued place.
Everyone is busy, and Enleco also needs to work hard, but this time he has two more helpers around him.
Throughout the journey, Lila and Xiao Kangdan followed him.
Half a month is not enough time for the two children to truly understand those advanced martial arts, but they already have some appearance from the stance.
What's more, Her Royal Highness the Princess feeds them both all kinds of weird medicines all day long.
These drugs even made Enleco, who was watching, feel creepy.
But those two little guys actually had the courage to eat them all. Even Enleco had to admire the tenacity of the children on the grassland.
The medicine of the crazy eldest princess has always been very dangerous, but it is often quite effective. At least in Enleco's view, the experiments that Chris used on Kate, Bertina, and the two children were all... Had good results.
However, he didn't know whether it was appropriate to do so. He always had a feeling that everything Chris did to the two children was a little bit unfair.
Unlike the previous training of Kate, Her Royal Highness the Princess seemed less patient this time.
Those potions directly acted on the magic lines she had tattooed on the two children. The slight electrical energy made the two children's senses become more sensitive, their sense of pain became dull, and their strength and speed exceeded that of ordinary people.
Enleco felt in his heart that this kind of experiment was not very good for the two children. He didn't know if other problems would arise, but he at least knew that this would make the two children reach a certain stage. After that, no further achievements can be achieved.
But there is no denying that this is a good way to quickly train a strong army.
It only takes five or six years to select tens of thousands of children of Kang Dan's age who are at the most vigorous stage of growth and development, and a legion capable of dominating the world can be successfully created.
This legion will far exceed any legion on the continent today. Even if the four major cavalry regiments are united, they will never be able to withstand the edge of this legion.
Enleco is absolutely certain that Chris' experiment with Lila and Xiao Kangdan was ultimately for the Kingdom of Sophie. Perhaps this was a request made to her by her brother, the supreme king.
It wasn't until noon that all the work was completed.
A blacksmithing fire was being lit in the distance, and those with higher status in the tribe all gathered around the fire to pray devoutly.
The people of these grasslands are full of infinite awe for the strong fire in the blacksmith shop, because it is a sign of the prosperity of the tribe.
Enleco guessed that the old patriarch would definitely hold a tribal meeting again, and all this had nothing to do with him.
He took care of Lila and Xiao Kangdan, and then planned to go to the city alone.
"You are not familiar with this place, let me be your guide." Lila said.
Enleco originally planned to refuse, because he had another purpose, which was to find out where the Holy Grail was hidden.
But before he refused, Lila had already clung to her body. She jumped onto the carriage lightly and sat next to Enleco.
"Wait." Chris suddenly stopped him.
I saw a note in the hand of Her Royal Highness the Princess, "If you go to the city, help me buy all the things on the list."
Enleco felt a little puzzled. With the Terra Chariot, Chris could easily travel between Sophie and Montita. The first few times she needed materials, she went back in person.
The puzzled Enleco opened the list, and he was shocked by the things listed on the list. They were all unattainable things, and Chris was obviously a little bit open.
"I've been looking for these things for a long time, but unfortunately only Montita produces them. I've always wanted to get some. Of course, if possible, the more the better." Chrissy said relaxedly, while Enleco frowned.
Driving the carriage to the city, Enleco felt a little heavy along the way.
He knew very well that Chrissy was not deliberately making things difficult for him. In this regard, Chrissy's temperament was far less bad than that cunning little girl Xiling.
But it was precisely because Chris took all this for granted that Enleco felt particularly troubled.
He believed that when Chris was in the Sophie Kingdom, she really wanted to take whatever she could find in this world.
That's because Kris not only has the status of the eldest princess, but also because this guy has never been constrained by conscience or moral behavior.
Buy if you can’t get it, cheat if you can’t buy, steal if you can’t deceive, and rob if you can’t steal. Kidnapping, fraud, theft, and robbery are simply commonplace for her. Many people in the Magic Association secretly think that Keli Princess Silk Palace is not the most unscrupulous and biggest criminal in the Sophie Kingdom.
But this scheme may not work in Montita, and Enleco is full of thoughts about how to get through.
Suddenly he felt Chris talking to him telepathically, "You stay here and try to find the Holy Grail. I'm going back to Sophie. If you find anything, or gather the things on the list, Just tell me and I’ll be right back.”
"How can I contact you?" Enleco quickly asked using telepathy.
"It's very simple. You just need to curse me in your heart. No matter where I am, I can know it." Chris said calmly. Enleco didn't know whether this was an instruction or a threat.
"Don't be afraid, I won't blame you for doing that." Her Royal Highness the Princess immediately dispelled Enleco's worries. But she immediately gave a stern warning: "However, you'd better control your own thoughts. If you accidentally scold me and I come here after all the hard work but find that nothing happened, you should be able to imagine the consequences. What's it like"
Hearing these words, Enleco couldn't help but tremble all over. He will never forget that when he came back from the devil world, when Chris saw that the magic circle was empty, her reaction was how terrifying.
And now she has an even more terrifying method of punishment in her hands. Enleco can't even think about what a sad end he will get if he offends Her Royal Highness the Princess.
Seeing that Her Royal Highness the Princess had no further orders, Enleco drove the carriage towards the city.
While driving, he was wondering in his mind why Chris left in a hurry.
Is it because she is not used to this country
That is possible. The status of men here is too high, and the status of women is too low. It is a miracle that this arrogant guy can endure it until now without completely destroying the country.
However, Enleco believed that the more likely reason why Her Royal Highness the Princess left in a hurry was that her experiments with the two little guys had produced satisfactory results.
In fact, when Enleco saw the magic pattern that Chris tattooed on Lila's chest, he knew that this guy was missing a key part.
The key to success was the training given to him by the goblin and the martial arts gained from the vampire scimitar.
This key is in her own hands, and now Chris has completely mastered all the details. With Joe's assistance, she can easily create an invincible army for the Sophie Kingdom.
While he was thinking, the carriage entered Grant City.
This is a city without walls. Because of this, the city can extend freely. In fact, the size of Grant City is no less than the ideal one in the Kingdom of Leiding.
"You'd better watch your wallet carefully. There are a lot of thieves here, especially children who need to be careful." Lila said with a vigilant look.
"I heard that the laws in the Kingdom of Montita are very strict. Why are there so many thieves?" Enleco asked in confusion.
"Is it very harsh? It's okay. Maybe it's because of different opinions." Lila said.
"How do you deal with thieves?" Enleco asked.
"It depends on the value of the thing stolen. The judge will sentence the thief to become the slave of the person who was stolen. The number of years varies depending on the value of the thing stolen." Lila said.
Enleco was shocked and asked: "If it is so strict, why are there so many thieves? Are the slaves in the Montita Kingdom living a good life?"
"How is this possible? Apart from the fact that no one is killed, the master will hit the slaves whenever he wants, and scold them whenever he wants. They are forced to do all kinds of heavy work all day long, and they don't get a penny of wages." Lila disagreed. said.
Enleco's face twitched every time the little girl said a word. In his opinion, Her Royal Highness the Princess treated him as if he was no different from a slave.
"In that case, why are there so many thieves?" Enleco asked again.
"It is not easy for children on the grassland who have no tribe to rely on to survive. Stealing may be the best way. Successful stealing can enable them to make a living. A full purse can even allow them to survive until they grow up. Adults, if they fail, according to the law they will become slaves. Although they will have to endure some hardships, their future livelihood will be secure."
Lila said: "If it is a boy, he will be a strong coolie in a few years. After the slave period, the tribe will most likely take him in. As for the woman, unless she is very ugly, otherwise within a few years, that tribe will take him in. It is impossible that the master has never touched her. After the time limit expires, she will be his wife and no one will drive her away."
"I see, your laws are quite humane." Enleco nodded.
"Yes, we have a good judge," Lila said proudly.
"Are you talking about your Majesty the King?" Enleco asked.
"Yes, but the reason why we respect him is not because he is the king, nor because he is Sante's husband, but entirely because he is a fair and strict official." Lila said with reverence.
As she was speaking, a figure suddenly rushed over. She was seen pedaling on the carriage pedals and quickly reaching towards the pocket on the left side of Enleco's chest. Looking at this posture, the thief Doing this business is no longer a matter of a day or two.
It's a pity that she picked the wrong target to attack. Enleco didn't even move because he saw that Lila beside him had already reacted.
Enleco knew clearly what Lila's skills were. Although she is young, after being transformed by magic, she can no longer even be called a human being.
Sure enough, there was only a flash of a figure, and the little girl's figure looked like a ghost, and she had already grabbed the thief tightly.
Enleco sighed softly, this was not the result he needed.
Lila held the thief's hands behind her back with her right hand, and stepped on the thief's legs with her right foot, making her kneel on the carriage pedal and unable to move. She came up with her left hand and gently stroked the thief's disheveled hair, and then took out the Use a handkerchief to wipe your dirt-stained face clean.
"Master, she looks pretty good," Lila said.
"Let her go, I don't want to cause trouble." Enleco said, as he took out his wallet, took out two gold coins and threw them in front of the thief.
Lila naturally understood what the master meant by trouble. Everyone in the tribe knew that Le Cres was afraid of his beautiful wife.
Lila knew better than anyone else that this fear was entirely justified.
Because Xiao Kangdan told her that the master's beautiful wife can make people disappear out of thin air. If the guess is correct, she should be a magician who can use magical power like the supreme Saint.
To the Montitas, there is no difference between magicians and gods.
After letting the thief go, Lila sat next to Enleco, shook her head, and said, "Master, it's useless for you to do that. The thief will probably find ways to follow you all the way, because she already knows that you have a very good heart. , she can be happy by becoming your slave, not to mention you also let her see your money bag, there are not many rich people like you here."
Suddenly Lila approached Enleco and asked softly: "Master, why on earth did you come to Montita? Great-grandfather said that you must have come here for some important event."
"Did you tell the patriarch what I forbid you to tell others?" Enleco asked sternly.
"No, in fact, great-grandfather has already seen that you are not an ordinary person. Bashan should have guessed something. He is the smartest one in the clan and is great-grandfather's successor." Lila said.
Enleco didn't believe what the little girl said, and he shook his head slowly.
The little girl was a little anxious, and she argued: "You have forgotten that Bashan once said that few people on the grassland can survive alone. Those who can do this are all super strong people like Tomur."
"Back then, you were going to migrate with our tribe. To be cautious, the tribe leader asked all the tribes in the city. I can be sure that you are from there. What's more, in the beginning, you didn't even know where you were. I know; obviously you got lost on the grassland, and the lost people can still survive, I can only say that you are extremely extraordinary people."
"But the clan leader didn't tell anyone about this, because he didn't think you would be detrimental to the clan, nor did he think you might stay, until Xiao Kangdan and I discovered your secret."
"At first, great-grandfather only thought that we would learn some useful skills, until Xiao Kangdan easily knocked him down during the fight. This result shocked him. In fact, we were also shocked, so we immediately thought of the memories left by our ancestors. The prophecy, you should be Tomur’s successor, and what you taught us is the long-lost skill.”
After hearing these words, Enleco sighed heavily. It seemed that he did not have the talent to hide his identity.
Enleco asked: "What does the patriarch plan to do?"
"Don't worry, my great-grandfather will not tell others, and he also warned us not to reveal this secret, and even warned Xiao Kangdan not to show off his power in front of others, and he asked me to give you the help you need as much as possible. What on earth do you think? Why are you here?" Lila said softly.
Enleco hesitated for a while before saying: "We are looking for a Holy Grail. This Holy Grail was originally enshrined on the pirate island of the Kingdom of Leiding. Your Sant took it away more than ten years ago. Now I and I My wife needs this grail."
Lila was startled, obviously she did not expect that the matter was related to the Supreme Saint.
"You want to steal the Holy Grail?" Lila asked in a lowered voice.
"No, we only need to find an answer from the Holy Grail. That Holy Grail does not belong to any one person. It has its own consciousness and is a unique life." Enleco said.
"If the Holy Grail is really in the hands of the supreme Saint, and you want to find it, you may have to find a way to enter the city in the clouds." Lila pointed at the huge white city high above.
"How can I get in there?" Enleco asked.
"Only those with outstanding talents can enter the City in the Clouds. If you show your martial arts skills, you will definitely get an invitation." Lila said.
"I don't want to attract other people's attention. Someone here may be able to recognize the martial arts skills left by Tomur. Are there any talented people living in the City in the Cloud?" Enleco asked softly.
"The most noble and respected ones are of course the magicians." Lila looked at her master and said, "Then the most powerful warriors, and then the priests. These people are the most powerful people living in the Cloud City. At the top, they are respected as elders, and those next to them are those with special knowledge. For example, architects who know how to build beautiful houses, blacksmiths who can create high-quality weapons, designers who are good at building carriages, horses and ships, and people who are proficient in making exquisite Craftsman of porcelain.”
"The best among them are called venerables, and the more common ones are called magi. Among the people who live in the lower levels of the city in the clouds, they can be regarded as superiors. Others are often good at a certain craft, so they have been able to survive from generation to generation. Living in the city in the clouds for generations, there are weavers who can weave gorgeous silk, embroiderers who are good at embroidery, and assistants needed by the sages and sages, and some are unicorn captains with special badges. Those who will learn more exquisite skills and abilities in the City in the Cloud are called the Chosen People.”
After hearing Lila's detailed explanation, Enleco nodded, and he finally had a plan in his mind.
He didn't want to attract too much attention from others, so there was no need to enter the Cloud City as a magician or warrior. As the creator of the "Holy Water of Life" artifact, he also learned a lot from the great wizard Kalit. He can easily pretend to be an excellent blacksmith and designer.
"How can a talented person enter the City in the Clouds?" Enleco asked quietly.
"As long as it attracts others' attention," Lila said.
"How to do it?" Enleco asked.
"What do you want to prove? If it's martial arts, directly challenging the Unicorn Captain is the easiest choice. I just saw several Unicorn Captains along the way. Defeating just a few is enough for you to enter the Cloud. City." Lila pointed towards the back and said.
"No, no, no, I want to go in with another identity. I can be considered a good blacksmith." Enleco shook his head repeatedly.
"Really? Why didn't you show your skills when we were in the tribe? At least you could help my brother and I build two decent weapons." Lila complained slightly.
"Isn't it good to use a whip?" Enleco asked disapprovingly.
Lila was slightly shy, but she did not intend to tell the master the real reason. She said: "In the legend, didn't Master Tomur use two scimitars? Why do we practice whips? How can whips be used to kill enemies? ?”
"You have only studied for half a month. What I am teaching you now is just the basics, but once the basics are solid, you can use any weapon." Enleco said: "But, did Tomur use two scimitars? I only got one of them, and his martial arts is not the kind of using two swords."
Lila looked at her master in surprise. She never thought that although the master admitted that he was the descendant of Tomur, he actually knew nothing about Tomur's deeds. An unimaginable miracle, she will definitely think that the master is a fake.
"Lord Tomur owns two scimitars, one of which he used when facing many enemies on the battlefield. It is more than four feet long, and the handle alone is one foot long. The scimitar is extremely sharp. Master Tomur often easily slices apart his opponents along with their mounts, but when he faces a real opponent, he uses another scimitar."
"Legend has it that it is a cursed evil sword. The evil sword only recognizes the strong. The weak holding the scimitar will be controlled by the sword. Only the masters like Lord Tomur can Only then could he make that evil sword work for him. Lord Tomur had never met many opponents worthy of using that scimitar in his life. Legend has it that in his later years, Lord Tomur, who stood at the peak of his power, because Unable to find an opponent who could inspire him, his heart was filled with loneliness. He broke the long knife, threw away the evil knife, and disappeared from people's sight." Lila said, and when she said the last sentence, she His tone was filled with infinite respect and admiration.
Enleco was completely different. He seemed to be able to understand the loneliness and loneliness in the heart of this extremely powerful warrior.
In fact, he himself has almost reached the same state. The only difference is that there is a more powerful and crazy guy pressing on top of his head.
The existence of Her Royal Highness the Princess made Enleco see that there is infinite vast space at the end of power, and there is a higher level of power.
Enleco smiled bitterly, maybe he really should thank Chris.
"Okay, tell me, where can I show my skills?" Enleco asked.
In the west corner of Grant City, there is a low-rise bungalow with various iron tools hanging on the gray-brown mud walls. The sound of "ding-dong-dang" can be heard everywhere, and there is smoke coming from every chimney. Smoke.
At a glance, Enleco saw that under every roof, there were always several herdsmen there picking out the copper and ironware they needed.
What surprised Enleco was that the owner of the iron shop seemed to be at ease with everyone. He was just forging iron in the room without a guard outside.
"There are very few deadbeats on the grassland, and the things hanging outside are all semi-finished products. The knives have no handles, and the copper kettle lacks handles and lids. Only after paying, the people inside will help them get all the items." Something." Lila had obviously guessed what Enleco was thinking.
The blacksmithing place is always full of noisy sounds. Enleco is surprised that there is no sound of shouting and selling here.
The carriage drove slowly through the alleys. He looked a little conspicuous here, because apart from him, there was no second light carriage on the street, but there were quite a few large carts used to pull things. .
Lila was obviously here for the first time. She took Enleco around for a long time before she found where they were going.
At the corner of the intersection of two slightly wider streets, a large area of land was surrounded by an earthen wall. Huge simple tents were erected on all sides to provide shelter from the sun and rain. A huge tent was erected in the center. The top of the tent was raised all around, as if it were countless rays of rays radiated by the sun.
Enleco and Lila got out of the carriage, which stopped with other large cars.
Suddenly, Lila turned around and caught something interesting out of the corner of her eye.
"Master, the thief is indeed following you all the time. Let's take her in." Lila said with a soft smile: "If you are afraid that your wife will get angry when she finds out, you can keep her outside."
Enleco didn't know that the little girl had some selfish motives in saying this. He just glared at the little girl and walked straight towards the door.
A low wooden door, with a relief on the left and right door leaves. Enleco recognized the character in the relief on the right. It was the sun god Hector. This god was also in charge of fire and wealth.
The relief on the left is half man and half tiger, which obviously comes from the original beliefs of the prairie people. It may be another demon, or it may be the goat he once saw.
"Is this Iklixue?" Enleco asked in confusion: "It's really hard to imagine that your church looks like this."
Lila pointed to the city in the clouds and said: "That's the church, which houses the gods that you are familiar with. Iklixue is Iklixue. We have our own beliefs."
Enleco glanced at the Sun God next to him and asked, "Why are the gods I'm familiar with still worshiped here?"
"There are also people among the prairie people who believe in your gods. No matter which god they are, they can bless those who believe in them." Lila said.
"So what god do you believe in?" Enleco asked.
"Our tribe has its own god - that demon. You should be very clear about this. Many tribes on the grassland have their own beliefs, and even tribes have different beliefs. For example, our blacksmith is Farhan. A believer, so he never participates in worship ceremonies." Lila said and pointed to the half-human, half-tiger god on the right. Obviously that was the patron saint of blacksmiths, the Farr whom Enleco had never heard of. rare.
Enleco nodded, opened the door and walked in.
This place is indeed completely different from the church. In Enleco's view, it is more appropriate to call it a market than a place for worshiping gods.
However, compared with the outside, the people doing business here are much more elegant and calm in terms of clothing and etiquette.
Enleco took a stroll and walked around. As he expected, the transactions here were all expensive goods-rare ores, high-quality iron samples, but the most common ones were all kinds of swords and weapons.
Lila is obviously very fascinated by those exquisitely crafted scimitars. The children on the grassland all have a good eye and do know what makes an excellent weapon.
What can be sold here are naturally the best works made by ordinary blacksmiths in Montita.
Naturally, Enleco would not be interested in these weapons. The only person in the world who could compete with him in making weapons was probably the "God of Forging", the great wizard Kalit.
"Master, how about this scimitar?" Lila shouted, pointing to a scimitar.
There was a circle of people standing next to the scimitar, and the three people who were arguing were obviously buyers. Others standing nearby were constantly making comments.
Enleco could tell at a glance that this scimitar was the best thing here, but that was all.
Enleco is not usually a mean and arrogant person, but since he wants to reveal himself today, of course it is necessary to raise his worth.
He walked to Lila, shook his head and said slowly: "This scimitar is not very good, and there are no weapons here that are eye-catching, but the materials are good. Buy some iron blocks and we can make them ourselves. .”
Hearing what Enleco said, the people who were standing next to the scimitar turned to look at him.
"This friend should be from the Kingdom of Laiding. The Kingdom of Laiding is full of mineral deposits and there are countless famous craftsmen. There is nothing we Montita can compare with." One of them was wearing a red dome hat and his face was full of wrinkles. The old man looked at Enleco up and down and said with a smile.
The people standing next to him were still a little unconvinced, but when they heard what the old man said, they immediately calmed down.
What the old man said is indeed true. The Kingdom of Leiding has a long-standing reputation for making weapons. Ten of the most outstanding craftsmen in the world today are in the Kingdom of Leiding. The top craftsmen of the City in the Clouds have arrived in the Kingdom of Leiding. , can only barely squeeze into the first-class ranks.
"From your tone, you should be a master who is proficient in making weapons. There are many materials here for you to choose from. Please show your superb skills and let us open our eyes. There are furnaces for making iron everywhere. Assistant It's up to you to choose, people here will give me some respect." The old man said with a smile.
This was exactly what Enleco needed, and he didn't pretend to be humble and nodded quickly in agreement.
He had already identified the materials. What surprised him was that the original owner of the materials was extremely cheerful. Not only did he give up the items, but he also refused to accept the money.
Finding an iron shop and an assistant was even easier. When I heard that a Leiding craftsman wanted to show off his craftsmanship, the best iron shop became available without any discussion. The master blacksmiths rolled up their sleeves to grab the positions of a few assistants. The assistants stood aside obediently, knowing very well that they had no part in this.
Seeing this situation, Enleco quickly restrained his impulse. He secretly warned himself that he only needed to be able to enter the city in the clouds. He did not need to use any famous sword, nor did he need to snatch Kalit's "forged sword". God's crown.
With his mental vibration, he could naturally see the shortcomings of the piece of iron. The meaning of the blazing fire was just to heat the iron until it became white and shiny. The heat of the fire was of no importance to Enleco. There is no relationship, because the final purification and tempering are completed through mental vibration.
But no matter what, he can't look too incredible. Pretending is still necessary for him. In those days when he was with the great wizard Kalit, he already knew all this.
He pretended to control the heat and let his assistant click on the iron according to his instructions. Everything was done in a decent manner.
Time passed little by little, and the two scimitars gradually took shape. Almost everyone was surprised by the speed at which this famous craftsman from the Kingdom of Leiding forged weapons.
According to their previous understanding, making a sophisticated weapon often requires days and nights of continuous hitting and repeated folding and training.
But the young man in front of him didn't care about this at all. If he were to forge a fine iron block and then use cold forging to make it into a sword, that would make sense, but he had already made the shape of the scimitar, and added it with cold forging. I'm afraid the toughness is not enough for forging.
Everyone felt more and more baffled. This was a construction method they had never seen before.
Some people even began to wonder whether this Leding man was exaggerating. Maybe he was not as skilled as everyone thought, maybe he had only made ordinary farm tools.
Just when everyone was puzzled, Enleco did something strange to them. He actually hit the blade directly. This was almost unimaginable, because it would cause the blade to be too thin and curved like this. The knife breaks too easily.
Amid everyone's doubts and surprises, Enleco pulled out two scimitars from the fire. He held the two scimitars and waved them in the air. The heat waves caused everyone to move away.
Some of the blacksmiths had seen this cooling method, but they didn't know that Enleco just wanted to force them outside the house.
While the scimitar was still red, Enleco used mental oscillation to gather the fire elements on the blade. The impurities were completely filtered out, and the materials that increased strength and toughness were evenly distributed. He fought for a long time just to Now is the time to really do the work.
Enleco did not want the two scimitars to become perfect masterpieces, as long as they were sharp enough. The sword technique he taught did not originally advocate using weapons to block. Of course, it was inevitable that weapons would occasionally collide with each other, so toughness These are the same characteristics that these two scimitars must have.
Using mental vibration to re-train the two scimitars, Enleco slowly cooled down the scimitars.
The machete is very thin, and the thickest part is definitely no thicker than a toothpick. There are some unevenness on the blade that need to be polished, but Enleco is not interested in taking that trouble.
He walked to the whetstone and grinded it hard for a few times. After smoothing out the most prominent wrinkles, he sharpened the blade.
This work originally took a lot of time. A high-quality sword often required fine grinding for more than half a month before it was completed. Enleco had no such interest. These two scimitars were originally toys for children. There is no need to be meticulous at all.
Because of this, he had just used a hammer to forge a sharp blade, and now it only took a few easy grinds to make the blade look extremely sharp.
Picking up the two crudely made scimitars, they already had some appearance, but the blades were not very beautiful. Enleco was quite good at handling this kind of thing. He took out a gold coin and put it on the fire and let it slowly Melting, this golden solution flows quickly and evenly on the scimitar, and the mental vibration causes gold and steel, two incompatible metals, to bite together tightly.
The golden blade not only looks elegant and luxurious, but also saves you the trouble of rusting the blade.
The people nearby looked at the magical transformation in front of them in amazement.
The gold-plated blade sparkled, but the most important thing was that the soft gold filled up all the uneven places underneath, and the smooth and bright blade was like a bright mirror.
Enleco handed one of the two scimitars to Lila. The little girl took the scimitar happily and looked like she couldn't put it down.
Another scimitar was handed to the old man, who took it doubtfully. As an expert, he immediately weighed the scimitar and waved it twice.
The scimitar feels very good in the hand, and it is quite smooth when slashing, without any feeling of being out of control.
The blade is light but not fluttery. It is obvious that in terms of structure, this scimitar is almost perfect.
However, the old man was still not sure whether the scimitar was useful or not.
He glanced at Enleco, who raised his hand in an invitation gesture.
The old man slowly walked to the door. There was a bamboo pole standing outside the door.
The old man put on his posture, and it was obvious that he was quite skilled. He must have been an excellent fighter when he was young.
Although the scimitar did not have a handle, the old man's right hand could still hold the scimitar steadily, and his hand looked strong and strong.
Like a bolt of lightning, the scimitar made almost no sound before cutting the bamboo pole into two pieces.
The old man took a look at the incision. It was smooth and smooth, without any cracks.
Suddenly he swung the knife again, and the scimitar slashed across the bamboo pole diagonally. The originally smooth cut was now shaved off a corner.
The old man looked at the incision again, and it was still so smooth.
"Exquisite, really excellent. I have never seen a few swords that can compete with it in my life. Even the most famous swords in the City in the Clouds may not be able to surpass it." The old man He said while nodding, and it was obvious from the look on his face that he couldn't put it down as well.
After a while, the old man reluctantly handed the scimitar back to Enleco.
Enleco wanted to be polite, but Lila had already taken the scimitar, and the light radiating from her eyes was very familiar to Enleco. The one who was good at squeezing in the Kingdom of Leiding The little girl Shilea often shows such a look.
"Friends from far away, am I lucky enough to know your name and where you have settled in this city?" the old man said respectfully, his expression solemn and solemn.
Before Enleco had time to speak, Lila had already rushed to answer for him. She deliberately mentioned the name of the tribe repeatedly because she knew very well the status that the old man enjoyed in the Montita Kingdom. When she heard others talking just now, The identity of the old man has been learned.
The little girl's eager performance caught Enleco off guard. He had not originally planned to get involved with the tribe.
Although there is no all-pervasive organization like the Controller in the Montita Kingdom, and Montita is much more honest and sincere compared to people from other countries, Enleco still does not want to leave too many flaws and omissions.
What's more, it has now been proven that his identity is not perfectly concealed. At least four people in the tribe have noticed his extraordinaryness.
Enleco absolutely does not want to continue to expose his identity.
Enleco did have a headache when he thought of the trouble the little girl had caused him on her own initiative.
Maybe my attitude towards these two disciples was too lenient. When Chris and Qiao were teachers, they were definitely not so easy to talk to.
Maybe this little girl should be punished appropriately. Maybe sometimes she still has to use the whip tied around her waist. Maybe it's necessary to let her lie on the bed for a few days.
Of course, other bystanders can be exempted, but Xiao Kangdan should stand on the edge of the saddle and take a closer look, because he is also a little troublemaker.
Two little guys who are used to being naughty need to have a long memory.
Enleco secretly made up his mind.
