Lord of Rot

The galaxy is like a sword, piercing the night sky.

The hunched corpses of the locals ran quickly on the ground, sometimes jumping up like apes and grabbing tree trunks to move forward.

"Did you get scared away?"

Since that day when the griffin was fumigated by the smell of burning pasture, he could no longer find any trace of the griffin.

It is not known whether the female Fierce Mane horse was successfully bred. The groom only said that the condition is not bad, but the food intake has become worse, and it has been slowly recovering in recent days. After all, it is a war horse.

A griffon represents great wealth. Li Qi is afraid that the griffin will hurt people, but at the same time he is reluctant to lose the trace of the griffon completely.

If you stay, you might as well become a gryphon from time to time.

It wasn't until he discovered a huge cave on a cliff in the Pig Backbone Valley, filled with human heads, bones, shiny armor and swords, that he could be sure that the griffin was really scared away.

Porcupine Castle.

Li Qi had moved out of the bedroom a long time ago. He could not always ask the valet to stop serving him or the sweeping maid to stop cleaning his room, so he moved into the room of his former father Lild, and the previous bedroom was ordered by him No one is allowed to enter.

In the crypt of the castle's "forbidden room", Li Qi placed in front of him the harvest of griffons.

A big bag of golden suns. Although a few of them were deformed and twisted by griffins, gold is gold.

I estimated that there were more than 20 pieces, which were heavy on my hand.

Comparable to two or three months’ income, this will be the biggest gain this time.

After careful selection, there is also a valuable sword. The material is like silver steel, a very brittle and delicate sword. Legend has it that silver steel can cause great harm to monsters. Li Qi remembers that it was in the book "Donkey Knight" he read. record.

The blade of the sword has a strange pattern, like a master-level forging technique of twist forging. The twisting pattern is revealed after acid leaching. Other than that, he can't see much more. In short, it is very beautiful, but there is a word written on the sword. A string of words, the words were written on it through corrosion in a special way, and were incompatible with the sword itself.

It read: "What do you want to say in the face of death?"

"Huh?" Li Qi looked at the sword in confusion. This string of words made the exquisite sword have obvious flaws, and made him confused.

What do you want to say in the face of death? And it’s still in a position where you can see it when you pick up the sword. Every time you pick up the sword, you have to look at it and remind yourself? How terrible must have been the life of the original owner of the sword!

He put down his sword and picked up another object, a ring inlaid with a red gem. The gem seemed to be alive. When he first saw it, Li Qi was even worried about being burned. Of course, the gem was cold.

This is something that can be exchanged for money.

The remaining items have little to do with the owner of the sword. The armor inlaid with the golden sword emblem is a relic from the golden soldier of the Leopold family. It always feels a bit troublesome to put it in the room.

There are also armors from other families. Before his father Lild died, the East Gorge War had not yet stopped. At that time, many families gathered together, and some of them may have become the gryphon's midnight snack.

Father Lild also had his own set of knight armor, including helmet, breastplate, full-body chain mail, shoulder pads, shin guards, knee pads, elbow pads, gloves, etc. It was extremely cumbersome to wear and required a real retinue to wear it, but there were Using this thing on the battlefield can greatly increase the chance of survival.

Li Qi has a pill business, and his monthly income is about 7-9 gold days, which is already more than most of the little barons, and certainly cannot be compared with the extremely wealthy Baron Sparks.

To arm a knight, it costs 5 gold days. Of course, the real price will fluctuate according to the blacksmith's quotation, but it will definitely not be lower than 2-3 gold days. In other words, Li Qi can now arm one or two gold days a month. Knights, some small nobles may only be able to arm a few knights with all their income in a year.

This does not include the war horses needed by the knight, which must also be purchased with gold sun, as well as the armor needed by the war horses, as well as the knight's lance, bow and arrow or javelin, and the great sword or mace for dismounted fighting.

Although many noble lords will confer knights, they will not arrange the knights' horses and equipment, because that will make them bankrupt. Only Leopold, Baron Sparks, and Li Qi's grandfather can generously give the knights a full set of equipment.

This also shows how difficult it is for ordinary people to become knights. Even if Li Qi agrees to let the son of the housekeeper or the political officer Grant become his retinue knight, if they don't make extra money, it will take them decades to earn a set of knight equipment!

Therefore, what prevents ordinary people from becoming knights is not only class, but also money.

If these armors are re-calcined and slightly modified, they can be worn again to fight. Some of the armors are even several times better than Lild's!

The premise is that the territory has its own blacksmith.

Judging from these things, the griffons did not appear recently, but have been moving within a certain range. They just recently started to forage in the porcupine collar for some reasons.

Or think about the worst, a powerful existence appears on the other side of the Pig Ridge Valley, forcing the griffins to switch hunting grounds and come here to feed.

"Does it have anything to do with you?" He asked looking at the silver steel sword in his hand.

The silver steel sword kills the monster, and the gryphon happens to be the legendary monster.

does it matter?

Someone who hunts gryphons?

Could he be the one with silver hair, carrying two swords on his back, and loving playing cards?

If it was related, he hoped that the other party would not come here. The little baron was not ready to deal with those superhumans.

After packing these things, Li Qi was going to give the ruby ​​ring to Joe when he came back and ask him to help appraise the value.

Li Qi yawned.

Without mobile phones, the Internet, computer games, and the ability to catch up on movies, his life has become much more regular, and he feels a little sleepy after nightfall.

Before you go to bed, let the raven fly and do its rounds.

This is a habit he has developed recently, and the raven also understands that this is his mission, and the magic brain is not slow in understanding.

The raven spread its wings and flew away from Porcupine Castle with Li Qi's sight.

Looking down from the air, the ugly wooden and mud house looked like a lump of something falling on the ground. Li Qi confirmed over and over again that Black Ear was only suitable for making farm tools, and he really couldn't believe what he said.

Nothing went wrong with the slaves.

No problem, as always.

But the raven did not fly to the castle. Li Qi knew that it would sometimes go to the dense forest, but since the gryphon appeared, the raven had no intention of going to the dense forest and would instead go to the beach.

The stars are reflected on the sea surface, and the raven with spread wings seems to be flying among the stars, surrounded by nebulae.

It was as if he was flying at this moment.

Suddenly, he noticed something was wrong. It was a ship, a two-masted sailboat. The ship did not have the emblem of any family in the East Gorge, but a skull and crossbones flag swinging in the wind.
