Chapter 849 Heavy Armor·The Rule of the Mountain Lord
In the royal treasury, a commander of the Imperial Guard brought Lu Xingshi to select the heavy armor he needed.
The other party was serious and didn't say anything along the way.
As for the king, it was naturally impossible for the other party to bring him here in person. After all, he was the head of a country. It would be okay if he were replaced by a grand duke, but Lu Xingshi was only an earl and was indeed not qualified.
Even if the king wants to win over Lu Xingshi, it will not be so obvious.
In the eyes of the king, Lu Xingshi has a moderate ability to advance and retreat, and belongs to the ranks of talents. If he really goes too far, it will be easy for Lu Xingshi to see through or doubt him. No matter which way it is, it will not be a good thing for him.
On the contrary, only by staying away from each other can we effectively control the other party.
"Earl Langton, you only need these three sets of earth-type heavy armor." said the leader of the Imperial Guard.
Obviously, the other party knows the treasure house very well, and it is quite possible that he also serves as the guard of the treasure house.
Lu Xingshi's eyes fell on three sets of heavy armor, two of which only had upper armor, and one had full body armor, from limbs to torso, including helmets and faceplates.
His eyes were immediately attracted by this full-body armor. Based on the inheritance he received from the royal family's collection, he quickly recognized the value of this full-body armor.
It was comparable to the Shield of the Earth King in his hand.
It is made of a large amount of precious metals. It not only has strong defensive power, but also has good permeability. Even wizards can wear it to perform witchcraft.
However, due to environmental factors, like the Shield of the Earth King, its power has been greatly reduced, and many abilities cannot be activated.
The most critical point is that it is heavy. According to common sense, there will definitely be a corresponding weight reduction enchantment, but it is a pity that it cannot be used now.
Therefore, ordinary people cannot wear them at all and can only put them in the treasure house to eat dust.
As for the other two pieces, they are actually pretty good, but there is still a gap compared to this set of full-body armor.
"That's it. What's its name?" Lu Xingshi asked.
The face of the commander of the Imperial Guard did not change. He would not be surprised whichever way Lu Xingshi chose. After all, there was only a one-third chance.
"The rule of the mountain king."
"Back then..." The commander of the Imperial Guard told Lu Xingshi the origin of this set of heavy armor.
Needless to say, this origin is indeed unusual. It was a noble family that was the same founding family as the Langton family, but it died out due to population issues.
In the end, this full-body heavy armor was recycled by the royal family.
But there is a problem with this, that is, the noble family emblem must be changed to that of the Langton family.
Fortunately, the royal family helped solve the problem, and they seemed to have some kind of artifact left behind that could do it.
"If you choose Earl Langton, I will ask the craftsmen to change your family emblem to that of the Langton family." After the commander of the Imperial Guard told Lu Xingshi about the rule of the mountain monarch, he asked Lu Xingshi if he wanted it.
"Okay." Lu Xingshi chose directly.
He started searching in his mind, and soon found what he wanted.
"Mountain Element Breathing Method" and "Mountain Element Meditation Method".
This set of earth-attribute breathing and meditation methods corresponds to this set of mountain monarch's full-body heavy armor.
Because the demise of the noble family was not caused by external factors, these two ancestral breathing methods and meditation methods fell into the hands of the royal family.
And they are all original versions.
According to Lu Xingshi's comparison, there is still a difference between the two inheritances of the earth and the mountains.
If the earth inheritance is the main defense and secondary constitution, then the mountain inheritance is the opposite, the main constitution and secondary defense.
Because of their similar nature and attributes, they have a lot in common.
To say that the most different ones are naturally fighting skills and witchcraft.
In fighting skills, Earth Heritage is mainly based on shields, and is good at defense and counter-injury.
The mountain inheritance is about fighting with bare hands, mostly resisting and enduring.
Witchcraft is also different. The former is various shields and protection, while the latter is enhancement and restoration.
They barely complement each other, that is, they keep improving along the way to have high health, thick defense, and strong recovery.
Later, through calculation, it was found that the increase of his extraordinary seed, Heart of the Earth, was also effective for the inheritance of the mountain. In this way, the resonance and connection of the mountain monarch's heavy armor should also be able to achieve it.
While the other party was dealing with the heavy armor, Lu Xingshi began to think about one thing while constantly dismantling the breathing and meditation methods.
That means he seems to have an empty hand.
How about trying to find a large gun or heavy sword with earth attributes?
This is used to make up for the shortcomings of being more defensive but not aggressive enough.
Just thinking about it again, this seems to be a bit of a loss. After all, his extraordinary seed, Heart of the Earth, cannot amplify heavy weapons.
Otherwise, wouldn't it be better to find a giant shield and hold the shield with both hands to activate Wushuang?
But there is also a problem here, that is, there are really few shield fighting skills, let alone passing them down to family members.
He did find it in the inheritance of the royal family's book collection, but it was not as good as the shield fighting skills in the Langton family's "Earth Elemental Breathing Method". What's more, fighting skills are not the point. The point is a powerful earth-type shield. At least it must be a shield of the same quality as his Earth King's Shield and Mountain Lord's Command.
This thing is so rare, the royal family may not have a second one.
Lu Xingshi must have caught the royal family and scooped it up hard, otherwise he would have to go find it himself.
As for making it by himself, he also needs to have raw materials. In this day and age, where can he find those high-end and high-end materials?
However, this kingdom does not have it, which does not mean that other kingdoms or even empires will not have it.
At that time, we will see if we can buy a set through trading. If it doesn't sell, then Lu Xingshi will use illegal means to get it.
Not long after, the commander of the imperial guards returned with the mountain monarch's command, which was carried back in parts by many people.
The original family emblem on the chest was changed to that of the Langton family. Lu Xingshi did not ask why.
Instead, he put it on immediately.
Then he carried the Earth King's Shield on his back. The Mountain Lord's command naturally had a device specially used to place the tower shield.
There is also a special structure for hanging weapons on the waist, which not only does not affect the battle, but also allows the user to quickly draw the weapon.
It can only be said that the builder's level of care is comparable to that of the Earth King's Shield.
When the commander of the Imperial Guard saw this scene, his eyes also changed.
Not only did he know the weight of the Mountain Lord's rule, but he also knew the weight of the Earth King's shield. Together, the two would make even the other three great knights of the kingdom falter.
But seeing Lu Xingshi again, not only was there nothing strange, but it also had no impact.
From this we can see how terrifying Lu Xingshi's physique is.
Perhaps the three great knights of the kingdom combined are no match for Lu Xingshi.
Here in Lu Xingshi, the Grand Knight is a realm level, but in the kingdom, the Grand Knight is just a position, so it is naturally different.
‘With these two pieces of equipment combined, the champion knight and the city-state wizard are nothing more than a country dog in front of me. ’ Lu Xingshi muttered in his heart.
The attribute increase of the equipment may not be large, but the material itself is good.
The initial attributes of the full-body heavy armor of the Mountain Lord are Constitution +1, Defense +1, and Life +1.
This is Lu Xingshi's estimate. There is definitely a discrepancy, but the difference is not bad.
After some activities, Lu Xingshi quickly adapted to the control of the Mountain Lord. Next, this set of heavy armor will be welded to Lu Xingshi's body like the Earth King's Shield, and he will not take it off even when sleeping.
After all, this thing is a growth equipment, and you have to rely on him to spend time to improve his attributes. How can he leave it?
"By the way, I would like to ask if there are any earth-type shields in our treasure house, and which ones are of better quality." Lu Xingshi asked casually: "I will change them when I perform a meritorious service next time."
When the commander of the Imperial Guard heard Lu Xingshi's words, he was quite speechless for a moment. You thought this was a vegetable market, so you should come back next time.
But he nodded.
"Yes, please come this way." The commander of the Imperial Guard did not reject it bluntly. Instead, he took Lu Xingshi to see it.
The earth-type shields were quickly listed, but there were not many that could satisfy Lu Xingshi, and even the ones that were satisfactory were just barely.
What he wants is a giant shield and a tower shield. It's not that they don't exist, but the quality is worrying.
And the shields that meet his mass are slightly smaller.
"Earl Langton, if you are rewarded by His Majesty the King next time, I recommend you to exchange for the kiss of these Gobi elves." The commander of the Imperial Guard noticed Lu Xingshi's dissatisfaction, and then picked up a pair of small round shields, clicked them and embedded them in On the arm armor of the ruler of the mountain king.
"Not only does it not affect your use of the Earth King's Shield, but you can also use the small buckler dexterously for close combat." After saying that, the other party showed it to Lu Xingshi again, and serrations appeared around the small buckler.
The shield that Lu Xingshi was reluctantly satisfied with contained the kiss of a pair of Gobi elves.
The main reason is that he also has the corresponding breathing and meditation methods. He guessed that the origin of this Gobi Elf Kiss should be similar to the rule of the Mountain Lord.
"Okay, I'll choose it next time." Lu Xingshi thought, it was all about digging, so he had to occupy a position first.
When the commander of the Imperial Guard heard what Lu Xingshi said, he removed the pair of Gobi Elf Kisses from Lu Xingshi and said, "Then I will keep it for you, Lord Count, and wait for you to exchange it."
Lu Xingshi was thinking, next time? Next time, he would go directly to the king and ask for it.
People have to be shameless. How will you know if you can succeed if you don't try?
If he really got this, wouldn't it save a lot of trouble?
Another thing, this thing is installed on the arm armor. When the time comes, he can also get a giant shield and a tower shield.
It was like buying a pair of equipment for free, and after putting it on just now, he also learned that this equipment was indeed extraordinary.
"Thank you very much. I will choose again as soon as possible." Lu Xingshi said with a smile.
The next thing to do is to convince the king or successfully deceive the king.
In fact, the king doesn't care much about these weapons and equipment that can only be seen but not used, but more about the symbolic meaning.
After all, they have no use for it.
