Chapter 846 As Viscount Langton, how can the shield be separated from the body
The Viscount of the Langton family successfully inspired the gathering of life seeds, which began to spread in the Black Earth Territory, and beyond... it was a bit difficult to get out.
The main reason is that it is too closed, and news can only spread within the territory. To go outside, either rely on the intelligence system or businessmen.
However, the Black Earth Territory does not have these two channels.
As for spies from other nobles... they don't have this kind of thing at all.
Whoever would put spies into an inconspicuous little viscounty must have a bad mind.
There are not many viscounts who can enjoy such treatment, but Lu Xingshi will definitely not be able to enjoy it.
I really thought that spies were so easy to stop. Except for outside businessmen, few civilians would leave. It was impossible for wandering knights and mercenaries to come to this small place like his.
Even if you come, you will be recognized at a glance.
Poor mobility means that neighbors all know each other, and you, an outsider, are immediately exposed.
If you want to be qualified to be placed as a spy, the Black Earth Territory must further develop.
Lu Xingshi, on the other hand, got on the carriage heading to the royal capital.
What's a little embarrassing is that the carriage moves a bit slowly, mainly because he brought the Shield of the Earth King. With the weight of this thing, can the carriage go faster?
The result was that the horse was exhausted and out of breath before even leaving the black soil territory.
"Sir, please...should you leave the Shield of the Earth King in the treasure house for the time being? Otherwise..." The captain of the guard hesitated a lot when he said this.
There are only three choices now, either not to go, this is impossible.
Either put the Shield of the Earth King back, or Lu Xingshi goes alone.
Naturally, there was only one option for the captain of the guard, which was to put the shield back.
The remaining two options are not good options.
Lu Xingshi's eyes twitched. This matter was indeed abstract. How could he forget about the weight of the shield?
Through this incident, he also discovered a very serious problem. As a knight, he must have his own mount. A normal horse would be difficult to move even with the Shield of the Earth King on him. If he adds a shield in the future, Heavy armor would simply crush the horse to death.
As for how to fight on horseback with a shield, don't worry about that, there are all kinds of fighting skills in the family's inheritance.
How was it done in the past? It was very simple. We even had dragons in the past, but we were still afraid of horses that were not strong enough?
How can it be compared now with before?
"No, I'll go there by myself, so you don't have to follow me." Lu Xingshi sighed.
Of course he wanted to ride a carriage and ride there safely without being exposed to wind, sun or rain, but there was nothing he could do if the horse was not strong enough.
"Sir, we can follow you on foot, and the carriage can carry you the corresponding food and drink needs." The captain of the guard immediately denied.
After all, Lu Xingshi is also a nobleman. After everyone has come out, there is no reason to turn back.
Although even the Black Territory has not yet left...
When Lu Xingshi heard this, he shook his head: "You don't have that good endurance, forget it."
This is indeed a good suggestion, but in Lu Xingshi's opinion, it is just a drag.
He walked over on two legs and took them with him, so he had to slow down and wait for them.
What a hassle.
It is indeed beneficial to take them with you. Someone will take care of your food and daily life on the road. He only needs to be responsible for the journey, and there is no need to worry about the rest.
But slaves are also human beings. They have been on the road all day and have to take care of Lu Xingshi's various things. If they fall ill or die, it will be even more troublesome.
So Lu Xingshi refused directly.
Before, they rode horses, and Lu Xingshi rode a carriage, which was equivalent to driving livestock, and the difficulty was much lower.
"This... sir, we..." The captain of the guard was also anxious.
Lu Xingshi interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "That's it, go back."
"Don't worry, you don't care about my background. Before I became a noble, I was a wandering knight. I have been to more places than you." Lu Xingshi said and began to pack some dry food he needed. He Qingshui, after taking some more currency, left directly.
When the captain of the guard saw Lu Xingshi being so decisive, he did not dare to follow him.
As Lu Xingshi said, he has been in the Black Earth Territory since he was born and rarely leaves.
Compared with Lu Xingshi, it is indeed much worse.
If I insist on following him, I will only become a burden.
Moreover, Lu Xingshi was already the fourth great knight of the kingdom, and ordinary little thief would not be his opponent.
If you really want to take them on the road with you, you will have to protect them when you encounter bandits.
"Chief Guard, what about us?" a servant asked cautiously.
"Drive the carriage back." The captain of the guard finally said this as he watched Lu Xingshi's retreating figure. Otherwise, what else could he do, but he also knew that if he went back this time, he would inevitably be scolded by his father.
This was a good opportunity to get closer to Lu Xingshi, but it was a pity that he missed it, which would make him more secure in taking over the position of housekeeper in the future.
But now that he has lost it, there is no need to continue to struggle. Looking at Lu Xingshi's attitude, if he really wants to follow him, he might only feel bad rather than good.
On the other side, Lu Xingshi was carrying the Shield of the King of the Earth. The reason why he wanted to carry this ancestral shield was because he discovered that through his own extraordinary seed, Heart of the Earth, and Glory, the King of the Earth, he could carry and resonate through things like carrying and resonance. method to remove the seal and restore the power of the shield.
Before, it was Constitution +1, Defense +1, and Damage +1. Today, he found that the three attributes had become +1.1.
At first, Lu Xingshi thought it was an illusion, but upon further research, he found that it had indeed increased.
Carrying is the foundation and resonance is through breathing and meditation.
Therefore, the Shield of the Earth King can be regarded as a piece of growth equipment, which will gradually grow through the length of time you carry it and the time you practice.
But it also requires extraordinary seeds and glory of sufficient quality.
Let alone the Langton family, among the recent generations of viscounts, there is a high probability that Lu Xingshi is the only one who can meet such harsh conditions.
Lu Xingshi also noticed that this process was not just growth, but also a bit like recognizing one's master.
That's why Lu Xingshi would rather walk over than leave the Shield of the Earth King in the Langton family's treasury.
As for the efficiency of power recovery, he has not tested this yet. After all, the shield has been with him for ten days. It may be +0.1 for ten days, or it may be increased by 10% for ten days.
He prefers the former. After all, in this environment, there is really no way to support a percentage recovery.
The former should be the comprehensive quality formed by extraordinary seeds + glory + breathing method + meditation method + strength. The latter percentage definitely does not come from him, but is restored by ingesting elemental particles through the energy environment.
However, Lu Xingshi did not feel any trace of elemental particles being absorbed into the surrounding barren energy environment.
There were few in the first place, but if the Earth King's Shield was stealing, Lu Xingshi would be able to detect it immediately.
"I haven't been out and about for a long time." Lu Xingshi didn't feel much and just sighed casually.
He is not the kind of person who is very quiet and restless. If there is no profit or other sources of motivation, Lu Xingshi can stay at home somewhere for hundreds or thousands of years without moving.
"I remember that after leaving the territory, in addition to bandits, there are also such things as wild beasts."
Lu Xingshi suddenly thought of this matter.
In his memory, taking the kingdom as an example, apart from the nobles' territories, many areas were actually undeveloped wilderness lands.
Without human intervention, the ecology is actually pretty good.
People who make a living by collecting the ecological environment, such as hunters, woodcutter, and fishermen, are actually serving the nobles.
As long as the ecological resources are divided into territorial areas, whether they are running on the ground or swimming in the water, they are theoretically the private property of the nobles.
It would be a violation of the kingdom's laws for such citizens to collect and capture them.
However, if they work for a noble lord, they need to hand over most of it, and then they can keep a small part for their own use.
The same is naturally true for the black soil territory where Lu Xingshi is located, but the ratio is relatively loose, generally speaking, it is 50-50.
In Lu Xingshi's opinion, this ratio was dark enough. After all, the hunter really risked his life.
But this was already very benevolent among the nobles, and even when he thought about going lower, he was opposed.
Even the hunters were unwilling. In their opinion, the prey they obtained belonged to Lu Xingshi, and it was very generous for Lu Xingshi to allow them to hunt.
After that, Lu Xingshi didn't say anything more.
Precisely because everything in the territory is the private property of the nobles, the economic promotion in the territory is extremely limited.
And as a currency, copper coins are not as effective as barter to a certain extent.
He had thought about solving it, but many things were contradictory and could not be solved with just one order.
What's more, this kind of problem won't cause any major problems in the short term, so it will be shelved for the time being.
"There is a high probability that the wild beast will not mess with me unless it is hungry and anxious." After Lu Xingshi condensed the extraordinary seed Heart of the Earth, he had a special aura similar to that emitted from a radiation field, which was enough to deter wild beasts.
This breath should be a special structure formed after changes in life forms.
Many of his Heart of the Earth's abilities are connected with the earth through this structure, and finally achieve those ten effects.
This radiation force field structure is the connection channel.
Lu Xingshi also pursued the source of the passage, but due to the fact that he had just condensed the extraordinary seeds, external interference could only be based on physical properties, and his observation ability was not enough to pursue it, so he had to give up in the end.
When he becomes stronger, it won't be too late to explore.
Lu Xingshi suspected that the Langton family's earth element breathing method and meditation method had something to do with it. Otherwise, if someone dared to use earth as a prefix, there must be something unique about it.
It's just that there is no record in the inheritance, and it's not known whether the ancestors of the Langton family didn't find it or erased it deliberately. Lu Xingshi didn't know.
