The weapons exclusive to knights... What distinguishes knights from ordinary people?
Just as Luo De was pondering, Durant walked in.
Before Durant could salute, Luo De looked up and asked him, "Durant, what do you think is the biggest difference between a knight and a regular soldier?"
Durant thought for a moment and then replied, "A knight can improve their physique through 'Qi'."
"Hmm, that makes sense."
Luo De nodded thoughtfully.
So the weapons forged from Sea Pattern Magic Iron are related to Qi?
He then picked up a longsword and handed it to Durant, "Feel this, what's the difference from an ordinary longsword?"
Durant respectfully received the longsword, "Yes, Lord Baron."
He took it with both hands, grasped the hilt, and felt its weight and balance, a thoughtful look on his face, "It seems a bit heavier."
"Beduo told me this used to be a weapon exclusive to knights."
Luo De said.
"Ah?"
Durant suddenly realized something, his eyes lit up,
"I once read some records, in the Ancient Era strong knight weapons all came from wizards, and knights could use such weapons to unleash various skills."
"Those are magical weapons, aren't they?"
Luo De asked tentatively.
Durant shook his head slightly, "Magical weapons would not typically fall to ordinary knights to wield."
It's said that knights in the Ancient Era had a much lower status compared to these spellcasters like wizards.
"Hmm, it's said that magical weapons all have special effects."
Luo De agreed.
"Perhaps you could try using your Qi?"
Luo De suggested.
"Alright."
Durant centered himself, then tentatively channeled his Qi, guiding it into his arm, and little by little into the longsword.
The next second, the patterns on the longsword faintly glowed.
"It really works?"
Luo De's eyes widened.
Durant was also taken aback, "It really works?"
"But what use is this?"
Durant couldn't help but ask aloud.
"I'm not sure, but I feel it could enhance attack power."
Luo De said, "Try it outside."
"Okay."
Durant responded, and the two immediately stepped out of the wooden house.
Luo De held in his hand that piece of iron Hammer had just given him.
He wanted Durant to try it, but thinking it over, it didn't seem to demonstrate the effect well.
Luo De looked around and his eyes finally settled on a large boulder not far away,
"Durant, try using that."
"Hmm."
Durant stepped forward, trying to inject more Qi into the sword, causing the glow of the patterns to become brighter.
The next instant, he raised the longsword and swung it at the boulder!
Puff!
In an instant, like a hot knife through butter, the boulder was directly sliced in half!
Durant's eyes widened,
"My lord, this is stronger than the longsword you forged!"
This boulder was bigger than a watermelon, yet it was easily cut through!
It truly is different!
Durant immediately realized, "I'm sorry, my lord, I mean, this sword's power is great with Qi infused."
"But your forged Zhan Ji is still incredibly sharp even without Qi."
"Hahaha, Durant, you don't have to be so careful."
Luo De laughed, "This longsword forged from Sea Pattern Magic Iron is indeed special, this can't be denied."
Luo De paid it no mind.
He could forge Zhan Ji with ordinary iron, so he could certainly forge a new Zhan Ji with Sea Pattern Magic Iron.
"No wonder it can forge weapons exclusive to knights."
Luo De extended his hand to Durant, "Come, let me try."
"Yes, Lord Baron."
Durant handed over the longsword respectfully with both hands to Luo De.
Luo De took the longsword, attempting to channel his own Qi.
But the Qi within Luo De was too scant to effectively infuse into the longsword.
Luo De had to give up.
After pondering for a moment, Luo De suddenly thought.
Could my Blazing Energy work?
Luo De attempted to channel his internal Blazing Energy and guide it into the longsword.
This process was not smooth, as if an invisible barrier blocked the flow of energy.
But with continued effort, the blade finally began to glow faintly.
However, the patterns on the sword emitted an orange glow, with a hint of scorching energy.
But Luo De could feel that in this process, a lot of energy was lost to offset the obstruction of the Sea Pattern Magic Iron.
It turned out that though the Sea Pattern Magic Iron barely served as a conduit for these energies, it was not the best material.
Luo De decided not to waste more of his precious internal Blazing Energy and handed the longsword to the blacksmith behind him.
"You came to report something to me?"
Luo De asked Durant.
"Yes, Lord Baron."
Durant responded immediately, "The first batch of looted supplies has already been sent over, currently departing from White Rock Canyon and heading towards us."
"The exact quantity is not yet tallied; volunteers and slaves combined are about fifty to sixty people."
Durant added, "And there's the blacksmith you favor, but he can only forge farming tools."
"That's normal, blacksmiths in small villages don't know much."
Luo De nodded satisfactorily.
Even a blacksmith who can only forge farming tools is better than an apprentice blacksmith.
"Send someone to escort them, try to get them back to Frost Leaf Town quickly."
He paused for a moment, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned,
"The death of the Hawk Count is finally of some value."
"Gang Le has already led a team to the next target, Ice Spring Village,"
Durant continued, "Additionally, Baron Harun has sent word."
"Baron Harun?"
Luo De's brows furrowed, his tone carrying doubt,
"Why is he sending letters? Shouldn't he be busy fighting for his title now?"
Luo De suppressed his doubts, turning his head to Beduo and said, "Prepare some new Sea Pattern Magic Iron for me, help me forge it into rough goods, I want to personally forge it into a longsword."
"Yes, my lord."
Beduo nodded in agreement respectfully.
After giving his instructions, Luo De said to Durant, "Let's go back to the manor first and talk."
Baron Harun's letter seemed particularly intriguing at this time, and Luo De took the letter, reading it while he walked.
