After learning the details of the knife in the box from Kujoji Genro, Artolis finally understood the meaning of Barong's words.
It has been mentioned in the past that there is no loss of merit in this continent, and the level of forging among the people is not very high compared to the current world. Just one Xuan Ming weapon can be regarded as the so-called "village sword", which is enough to show that How backward is Tianesti's armed forces?
In such an environment, most people follow the rules and believe that the higher the quality and the more attributes, the better the artifacts are. However, some people choose to go eccentric, such as Genro Kujoji.
In Barong's words, rather than taking the wrong approach, it is better to say that this is the most correct equipment choice at the moment. The weapons collected by Genro Kujoji are all rare and rare items that are not very outstanding in quality, but are extremely high-quality in a single attribute.
Take this "Kisemaru Souji" as an example. Although the quality of the weapon is only brass level and it only has one attribute, this single attribute is quite powerful.
Kujoji Genro said that he originally thought of tempering the blade with poison to make the blade contain twelve powerful poisons that are not known to exist, such as poison, red vitriol, banana, and scorpion vine, so as to create the world's most poisonous sword. Unfortunately, the material used to cast the blade could not withstand the corrosion of toxins, and the auxiliary materials added for forging had extremely rare "indestructible" properties, so the knife eventually became a blunt instrument. , or in other words, this is the karma, or price, brought about by the law giving this "magic sword" the ultimate attributes.
In addition to this, the other seven magic knives are all the same. In one aspect, they have characteristics that even epic weapons cannot match. However, a relatively single knife will also show obvious shortcomings in other aspects, which means that it will Take any one of the magic knives by itself and it's really outstanding. But what if...
"Someone can flexibly use these eight magic knives. For him, it is no less than using an epic weapon with eight ultimate attributes, or even better!" Barong said, looking back in front of him. old man.
"Such a unique understanding, even I never thought of it, really lives up to the saying, "There are people outside the world, there is a sky outside the world." "It's rare for Artolis to see Barong admire a certain person or thing from the bottom of his heart. It can be seen that these "magic swords" of Kujoji Genro have indeed brought him a lot of inspiration.
"It's rare for someone to correctly understand the true value of these treasures from Lao Cheng. So you have some discernment."
Kujoji Genro's mood was obviously better. Sure enough, if you want to win a person's trust, you still have to delve into the other person's area of interest. Looking at the upright back of the man next to her, Artoris touched her chin and felt that she was It is necessary to discuss with Baron what is the way to treat others.
After a heavy rain, the water on the city wall gradually receded. Along the side of the city gate to the east are the rolling mountains and the vaguely visible city wall. As the last line of defense in the southeastern part of the Kotgama Empire, the soldiers armed at or below the walls of Fort Ophinia were in high spirits, as if they were facing a powerful enemy, and were ready to fight to the death with the enemy at any time.
More than a thousand soldiers under Gallius had already formed a formation before and merged into the ranks of the first legion of the Imperial Army. All magicians were arranged on the city wall. In addition, there were a total of 60,000 The infantry and cavalry formed the most powerful backbone of the empire under the city, standing ready in a solemn atmosphere.
"In other words, has the Demon King revealed himself on the battlefield of Kleinia?" After hearing the news, Baron frowned and stared thoughtfully at the soldiers summoned in front of him.
"Back to Commander, the information comes from the observation of Lord Ryder in the Kleinia Time and Space Tower. Lord Brave is now confronting the Demon King, and Lord Ryder will also assist the Brave to fight alongside him."
"In other words, the Demon King's main target is the hero or something in Kleinia, so he doesn't regard this as a priority target?" Neluvana, who also learned the information, analyzed this. .
"The predictable results, or the fact that the brave side has not returned to the empire so far, are enough to conclude that the Demon King is very likely to appear on the battlefield where Kelenia is confronting the Demon King's army." Baron said, his expression gradually relaxing.
"That's fine. Without brave men, it's impossible to compete with the Demon King based on our current combat power. We can win this defensive battle!"
With the same confidence as when the man responded, Neruvana nodded, and then stepped onto the city wall with firm steps. She looked into the distance, and saw the black-based Demon King's army emerging like a tide at the end of the horizon.
Neruvana had dreamed of such a scene more than once. Enemies came in like a tide. Their army easily broke through the imperial army's line, smashed the fortress of Fort Orphenia, and attacked one after another one after another. The strongholds were razed to the ground, and all life in the empire was devastated.
But the reality before her told her that the situation had not yet reached an irreversible point. This was a position that was absolutely impossible to break because she was still here!
"...You have a majestic body, you have a will of steel, you have the glorious mission of defending your homeland, and only with your fearless sacrifice and selfless dedication can you achieve the happiness and contentment of the people of the empire now and in the future."
Although Baron thought it was irrelevant, Neruvana still recognized the chief of staff's appeal. After all, although the other party's attitude was quite arrogant, he was also putting forward his own opinions for the overall situation. If the past kind of inspiring The method of preaching is still effective, so Nirvana has no reason to refuse.
These days of contact with Baron have made Nerewana deeply aware of her previous ignorance. It is true that the future is achieved by oneself, and the future of the world should also be controlled by the world itself.
Now that things have happened, she has to admit that the age of God has indeed passed.
This is her responsibility now and should be borne by her.
"So..." Nervana took a deep breath.
"Let us fight side by side to take back the future that belongs to us!"
Finally, in front of her eyes, facing the demon king's army approaching the city, Nervana stood at the highest point of the city wall and took the imperial flag handed to her by her subordinates, and waved her arms!
At this moment, the enemy is advancing with great noise, and the defenders must not become timid because of the situation and their weakness.
"The whole army obeys the order and charges to protect and defend!"
