Chapter 547: A coat of arms that has never been dusted
Immediately afterwards, a burly figure wearing a brocade robe appeared from the entrance of the passage.
Then he knelt down in front of Lei Xiao and said: "I would like to report to Lord Qi that my subordinate has lived up to Lord Lord's expectations and has successfully advanced to the level of a fourth-level powerhouse!"
Needless to say, the person who came was Fang Hai, who had just received the inheritance from his ancestors.
Lei Xiao gently put down the tea cup in his hand and walked away after hearing the sound.
At this time, Fang Hai was not only much more powerful than before, he looked like a powerful master. Moreover, his old face with gray temples was full of red, and even his wrinkles seemed to have been reduced.
All in all, compared to not long ago, this old blacksmith under his command has undoubtedly undergone a qualitative change!
Nodding with satisfaction, Lei Xiao stood up from his seat, helped the other person up, and opened the other person's attribute bar.
[Name: Fang Hai]
[Occupation: Martial Saint]
[Level: Level 4, One Star]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Skill 1: Thunder God Fist? Change to "Active" (thunder attribute small range physical group attack, additional paralysis effect)]
[Skill 2: Swallow Kick? Change to "Active" (powerful physical single target attack, additional knockback effect)]
[Skill 3: Thousand-forged Attack Technique "Active" (Attack speed and dodge ability are greatly increased)]
[Skill Four: Zhihu Mastery "Passive" (when using Zhihu, the damage will be moderately increased)]
[Skill 5: Level 4 blacksmithing skill "Passive" (can forge metal weapons, armor and accessories)]
"Not bad, not bad. In this way, I not only have a fourth-level strongman under my command, but also a highly skilled fourth-level forging master!"
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction while closing the attribute bar.
At the same time, Lei Xiao also understood clearly.
Compared with Gale, who is also a Martial Saint and uses his body directly as a weapon.
The methods and skills that Fang Hai practices have different focuses. He is better at boxing attacks. Therefore, the weapon he is equipped with is the relatively rare finger tiger.
"Lord Qi, not only have my subordinates successfully advanced to the level of a fourth-level expert, but also, after accepting the blood inheritance, both the forging skills and the types of weapons and armors that can be forged have been greatly increased!
"
Fang Hai's old face was full of excitement, and he said: "I didn't expect that the blacksmith's skills mastered by my ancestors after countless hard trainings would be so miraculous."
"The many exquisite forging techniques and energy injection methods are simply breathtaking. It can be said to have opened the door to a new world for my subordinates!"
After a pause, Fang Hai said excitedly: "In short, my subordinates' current forging efficiency and forging success rate have also been greatly improved!"
"Very good. It seems that our trip this time was really worthwhile."
Smiling and nodding, Lei Xiao first put all the surrounding sofas, coffee tables and other items into the space bracelet, and then said to Fang Haida: "Okay, let's go meet your ancestors again."
In this way, following the stairs at the entrance of the passage, it didn't take long for Lei Xiao and his party to reappear in front of Old Xiaoer.
"Sir, thank you very much. If you hadn't brought my distant grandson here, I might not have known how long I would have slept in this dark place."
Nodding to Lei Xiao, Old Xiao gently stroked his long beard and said: "Now, seeing that the Qiandian family has hope of revival again, I finally feel that these thousand years of vicissitudes have not been wasted in vain.
"
"Mr. Xiaoer, you're too polite. After thousands of years, our life trajectories and time lines should not have any intersection. It is an indescribable fate that we can meet here."
Lei Xiao, who nodded slightly and continued to maintain a faint smile, responded to the fifth-level powerhouse at the Zhenguo level in front of him: "Therefore, there is no need to say thank you between you and me. Perhaps, this is just a new beginning."
"A fresh start?"
Hearing this, the wrinkles on Old Xiao'er's face became deeper and deeper, and he lowered his eyes and said: "However, the king I am loyal to no longer exists, and the country I guarded has turned into scorched earth. Even my
The family has also declined to the extreme..."
Sighing heavily, Old Xiao shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Thousands of years have obliterated all traces of my existence in this world. All that is left is this half-dead petrified body.
With my current situation, how can I talk about a new beginning?"
"Mr. Xiaoer's words are wrong."
On the other side, Lei Xiao looked stern and said: "Although I don't have the ability to lift petrification now, I believe that in the near future, I will be able to completely unlock this heavy shackles on you.
."
Nodding solemnly, Lei Xiao continued: "Furthermore, although everything you were familiar with before no longer exists, isn't there still a trace of you in the world today?"
After speaking, Lei Xiao pushed Fang Hai to the side, and then said: "The most powerful blacksmith under my command has the same bloodline as you, and follows the family motto you once left. This is why
It’s the best proof.”
"Your Lordship is right!"
Bowing slightly to Lei Xiao, Fang Hai immediately took a step forward and said with a solemn expression: "My lord, ancestors, although after thousands of years, the Qiandian family has lost its former glory, but the anvil emblem of the Qiandian family,
But it has never been covered in dust, and it is still as shining as when you were here!"
At this time, Fang Hai's old eyes were glistening and he continued: "For thousands of years, you have developed and expanded the Qiandeng family, and the adventure stories of visiting various races and practicing hard forging skills have been passed down from generation to generation within the clan.
After a while, it accompanied every young girl from the Qiandian family to sleep."
"As for the descendants of the Qiandian family, the reason why they never compromised with fate or let the family crest become dusty in any situation is because of your bravery and unyielding back then! It's all because of our Qiandian family, who have also been
Pass a fifth-level powerhouse with monstrous strength!"
Taking a deep breath, Fang Hai added: "Thus, the traces of your existence have never been erased, but have grown up with every descendant of the Qiandian family, and you are also the blacksmith of every Qiandian family. , a goal to work hard for!”
After hearing the sound, he was silent for a long time, and then Lao Xiao slowly said: "So that's it..."
"Yes, if it were not for the stories and family mottos of our ancestors to support our beliefs, I am afraid that the current Qiandian family, like the Kingdom of Loren, would have disappeared in the torrent of history."
Fang Hai's old face was full of awe, and he nodded in agreement.
"Mr. Xiaoer, it seems that although the years may have changed the world, they have not wiped out your traces."
Looking at the burly old man with a solemn expression in front of him, Lei Xiao immediately said: "Since you were able to build the Qiandian family into a top family once, you must be able to do it the second time, right? Isn't this your new start? Does it make sense?”
"...Sir, you are right. I seem to be interested in the world a thousand years from now."
Taking a deep breath, Lao Xiaoer said solemnly: "If you can remove the petrification magic that is pressing on me, then I will sacrifice my life to repay your kindness of reconstruction!"
After finishing speaking, Lao Xiaoer looked solemn, then put one hand on his chest and bowed deeply to Lei Xiao.
"Mr. Xiaoer, there is no need to be polite. I believe it won't be long before you are reborn."
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao also responded with a serious expression: "This is my promise to you."
"Haha, I look forward to that day coming!"
Accompanied by a burst of hearty laughter, this ancient secret room, which was originally a bit depressing, immediately became cheerful.
"By the way, although my storage ring can no longer be used, there is a set of spare weapons and armors reserved by me under the bluestone platform where my body is sitting."
Immediately, Old Xiao seemed to have remembered something, and nodded to Fang Hai and said: "I believe these objects will definitely be of great help to you who have also studied the secret martial arts of the Qiandian family."
"My grandson thanks you, ancestor!"
Hearing the sound, Fang Hai's old eyes lit up, and a look of ecstasy appeared on his old face.
Just like that, under the command of Lei Xiao.
The knotweed standing aside rolled up his sleeves and easily moved away the petrified statue and the heavy bluestone platform below.
A half-meter square hidden grid emerged.
Next, I saw a burst of energy fluctuations rippling out of Lao Xiaoer's energy body, and with the muffled sound of stones rubbing against each other, the secret grid slowly opened.
Immediately afterwards, a piece of neatly folded cloth armor and a black finger-tiger appeared in front of everyone.
Observing carefully, we can see that these two pieces of equipment are exuding a good energy brilliance, shining brightly in the dark grid.
However, there is obviously still a big gap between the brilliance and brilliance of the fifth-level equipment.
"Is that true?"
Seeing this, Lao Xiao couldn't help but sigh.
He shook his head helplessly and said: "Although these two pieces of equipment cannot be called perfect, they have reached the fifth level. It seems that due to the lack of maintenance, the years have left their mark on them."
A heavy trace..."
However, Lao Xiao's words have not yet completely finished.
With Lei Xiao squatting next to the hidden compartment, he waved lightly, and the two pieces of equipment that were originally dim suddenly became extremely dazzling.
Needless to say, Lei Xiao has encountered this situation many times before, so he can easily handle it with his golden fingers.
"This is...?! You actually returned to the fifth level without any repairs?!"
After noticing this scene, Lao Xiao's eyes almost popped out of his head, looking dumbfounded.
Lei Xiao smiled faintly and first opened the weapon's attribute bar.
[Name: Roar of the Liger]
[Level: Level 5? Extraordinary (Silver)]
[Attack strength:★★★★★]
[Additional Effect 1: Lion Bite "Physical Penetration Increased by 60%"]
[Additional Effect 2: Tiger Disease "Movement increased by 30%"]
[Remarks: The finger tiger created by the fifth-level forging master Xiaoer Qiandeng was created by combining the forging techniques of the dwarf and human nations at that time.
Although it is only a trial model, Shore still relies on his superb forging skills and forging experience to make this finger tiger reach the fifth level, which is far better than most weapons.]
"With this impressive weapon, Fang Hai's strength will undoubtedly rise to a new level again!"
Looking at the colorful, small and exquisite pure black finger tiger in front of him, Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction and opened the attribute column of the armor.
[Name: Night Warrior Cloth Armor]
[Level: Level 5? Extraordinary (Silver)]
【Defense strength:★★★】
[Additional effect: Energy reduction (night)? "Moderately reduce the user's ability consumption"]
[Remarks: This is a cloth armor from the dark elves. The special secret method of the dark elves is added during sewing, so that the wearer can reduce his own energy consumption when fighting at night. 】
"Not bad, this will undoubtedly increase Fang Hai's endurance in night operations!"
After closing the attribute bar of the cloth armor, Lei Xiao nodded slightly and stood up from the hidden compartment. Fang Hai, following the former's instructions, couldn't wait to come closer and took all the two pieces of fifth-level equipment into his possession.
in the bag.
"Your Excellency is indeed no ordinary person. This kind of magical power can be called a miracle."
On the other side, Lao Xiao finally came to his senses again and marveled at Lei Xiao: "To be honest, I was originally skeptical about your promise just now, but now, I have no such doubts at all.
idea.”
"It's just a small skill, nothing worth mentioning."
Lei Xiao smiled slightly and started chatting with the other party again.
Next, through asking questions and understanding, Lei Xiao learned.
It turned out that the weapons in the sword tomb in front of the forge were left behind by the Guards soldiers who died when they killed the elite enemy spies in the royal capital after the city was besieged.
Originally, these swords were intended to be repaired, but Old Xiao insisted on keeping them.
Firstly, it is to always warn other blacksmiths and the soldiers guarding here not to slack off, and secondly, it is to commemorate these heroic Guards soldiers.
"So that's it."
Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly and asked another question that he had been curious about for a long time: "Mr. Xiaoer, as far as I know, the enemy at that time did not find the secret treasure of the Loren royal family. You
Do you know the specific location of the treasure?"
"...Since the Kingdom of Loren has been destroyed, I might as well tell you this secret."
After pondering for a while, Old Xiao said solemnly: "To be honest with you, apart from the Loren royal family at that time, I am one of the few ministers who are lucky enough to know the place where the treasure is hidden!"
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details."
The curious expression on Lei Xiao's face became more and more obvious, and he quickly asked again.
"This is what happened at that time..."
On the other side, Old Xiao's old eyes were blurred and he was once again lost in memories.
