Chapter 109 110 Test

Chapter 109 110. Temptation

At Wushan Fortress, Luo Ning introduced the weapons and equipment made of black ironwood in detail.

The styles of shields and spears are very common, but the materials for making them are all replaced by black ironwood. Luo Ning does not need too much introduction.

His focus was on Ironwood Breastplate and Ironwood Armor.

"The ironwood chest protector is made of repaired black ironwood wrapped in multiple layers of compacted linen. It is light in weight and easy to wear. Under the double protection of the black ironwood and multiple layers of linen, it can defend against enemies. The sword struck the chest and the arrow shot.”

"Telmuzha armor is made of black iron trees processed into rectangular armor pieces, and then these armor pieces are interwoven with fine leather strips to form a tight structure."

Luo Ning said, taking the Temuza armor from McCann's hand and shaking it, the armor pieces collided with each other and made a crisp sound.

"This kind of armor pieces are superimposed horizontally and vertically, making it difficult for the enemy's weapons to penetrate. It can not only protect against slashes, but also against the piercing of arrows and spears. Moreover, even if a few of the assembled ropes are cut, they will not be damaged at all. It will affect the structure of Zajia.”

He handed the Temuza Armor back to McCann and said to everyone: "Everyone can come and see the effect. I believe that if these can be equipped, the combat effectiveness of the Knights will be greatly improved."

After his introduction, everyone present not only became interested in these equipments, but also got to know the baron of Shanlin Town again.

Especially Lu Lansi, who was sitting in a high position, discovered that Luo Ning, in addition to the bad things in his impression, also had bright spots, at least he had a certain understanding of weapons and equipment.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, why didn't this child show any of his talents at first?

"Let me try the effect of this shield."

Galil, the captain of the knight team, came out and said, "Baron Ronin, I wonder who will accompany me to test the effect?"

"Your Excellency has extraordinary strength, please let my guard officer McCann come and test it with you."

Luo Ning looked at McCann and reminded: "Galil has bronze-level strength, so be careful."

"Don't worry, sir."

McCann held the shield in his left hand and stood ready, "Come on, Galil!"

Galil performed a knight's salute, then drew his sword and attacked.

Because it was to test the quality of the shield, the two did not show any physical skills, just pure slashing and confrontation.

Of course, Galil did not use his full strength. A bronze-level full-force blow would be difficult for an iron shield to withstand, let alone an iron-wood shield.

With a bang, the long sword struck the shield, leaving clear slash marks, but due to the control of the power, the scar was not deep.

"It's possible to defend against the junior knight's slashes."

Galil took a step back and struck a second time, this time the power increased to the level of an intermediate knight.

McCann responded calmly and received the second blow accurately.

This time, a deep gap was left on the shield, but because the shield had a certain curvature, it was still not cut open and could continue to be used.

When everyone thought that Galil had stopped attacking, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, he strode forward vigorously, and actually launched an attack on McCann.

Everyone was stunned, and Luo Ning also frowned. He subconsciously prepared to shout stop, but found that Lulans didn't show any strange expression. Was he testing McCann's strength?

Luo Ning frowned, and in his thoughts, the two of them had already exchanged hands.

McCann noticed the abnormality when the opponent attacked. When Galil's long sword stabbed him, he had successfully avoided it and at the same time, he pulled out the long sword on his back with his backhand.

In an instant, the two people who were testing the shield were fighting together.

At first, the two did not use fighting spirit, but purely competed in physical skills and strength, but they found that they were evenly matched.

Then, the fighting spirit broke out.

The fierce fighting and collision set off fluctuating air currents in the Wushan Fortress. Even though the fighting spirit broke out and greatly increased the explosive power, Galil only had a slight upper hand.

Galil's fighting spirit was circulating and he was ready to use fighting skills.

But at this moment, Lulans, who was sitting above, spoke: "Okay."

Captain Tolu also followed: "Galil, I asked you to test the shield, what are you doing?"

Galil retreated with one blow and said with a smile: "I heard that the conquest of the savage tribe was largely due to the brave fighting of Knight McCann. I couldn't help but want to give it a try."

He nodded towards McCann, "When I saw him today, he is indeed very strong!"

McCann returned the greeting, then stood next to Ronin with a shield.

Luo Ning chuckled, "Now that you've tested it, Galil, what do you think of this shield?"

"Can!"

Galil nodded solemnly, "It may not be able to defend against many attacks from intermediate knights, but it is completely sufficient for the confrontation between ordinary soldiers and even the confrontation between ordinary junior knights."

Tolu nodded, "That can be equipped with some."

He said, pointing to the Temuza armor that Luo Ning had just introduced, "Compared to the shield, I value this armor more."

Tolu stepped forward and took the Temuza armor, pinched one of the armor pieces with his hands, tested its hardness, then repeatedly checked the production process and weighed its weight.

"Dawson, come and see how this armor looks like."

The quartermaster came forward. After greeting Luo Ning, he took the Temuza Armor and started experimenting with it, including stabbing and slashing with the dagger he carried.

Luo Ning also asked Wharton and George to cooperate in chopping.

"My Lords, the defensive power of the ironwood armor is sufficient."

The quartermaster Dawson gave his opinion, "The Knights are currently equipped with plate armor, chain mail and cloth armor. Although we have seen this kind of armor, we have not equipped it."

"Chain mail and plate armor have strong protective power, but they are too heavy and expensive to make. We do not prepare this kind of armor for all soldiers."

"Ordinary soldiers are generally equipped with cloth armor, but the defensive power is weaker, and there is no way to compare with the ironwood armor provided by Baron Ronin."

Listening to the quartermaster's introduction, Ronin nodded secretly.

Chain mail, plate armor, and cloth armor are common armor. On Earth, cloth armor has developed into composite armor, and its defensive power is not inferior to armor.

But in this world, cloth armor is really just made of multiple layers of linen pressed together, and its defensive power is not strong.

"So what is your suggestion?" asked Toru, the leader of the Knights.

Dawson did not hesitate and replied: "You can equip a knight squad first. If the effect is good, then promote it to the entire knight group, and even other knight groups."

Toru nodded, "Galil, then let your knight squad try it out. You can discuss with Galil later to see how much of each item is appropriate to buy."

"Oh, by the way, please ask the financial officer Curry and Baron Ronin to discuss the price."

In fact, the discussion of commodity prices should be before the order is confirmed. Such an order can only mean that no matter what quality and price Ronin gives, some will be purchased today as a friendship.

Ronin smiled and said: "Each side of the ironwood shield is 6 silver coins, each spear is 3 silver coins, each chest guard is 1 gold coin, and the ironwood armor is time-consuming because of the materials and craftsmanship. I give a price of 3 gold coins per piece."

Curry's eyes lit up, "This price is very reasonable!"

It's not that he said this for the sake of Lu Lans or Ronin, but Curry felt that this price was indeed very reasonable.

On the market, an ordinary chain mail costs 10 gold coins. The overall defensive effect of ironwood armor is much weaker than that of chain mail, but each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Although it is made of special wood, it also has a certain value, and the price of 3 gold coins is reasonable.

Curry subconsciously thought that Ronin would ask for a lot of money.

This price is acceptable.

"In that case, let's do as you said just now, Toru."

Lu Lans said: "Ronin, don't you still have a curved plow for farming? I called the political officer Albert over, and now he will take you to a field in a manor to test it."

"Okay!"

Ronin looked at the last person in the fortress, that is, the political officer Albert, "Please trouble you."

"It is my honor to serve you, Baron!"

Albert bowed slightly, then made a gesture of invitation, and took Ronin out of Wushan Fortress together.

After everyone left Wushan Fortress, Lulans looked at Galil, "How strong is that Macken?"

Galil bowed and replied, "His fighting skills and body movements are not inferior to mine. Without using fighting skills, it is unlikely that I can defeat him in a short time."

Lulans couldn't help but snorted, "This kid actually told me that Macken had just broken through from the intermediate knight to the advanced knight not long ago."

Galil shook his head when he heard it, "Macken's strength is not to say that he has reached the bronze level, but he has definitely reached the peak of the advanced level."

Toru asked, "My lord, what do you mean?"
