In the afternoon, Kloze came over to offer the treasure holding Li Ang's sword, looking very excited.
"Sir, I have re-polished this sword... This is an amazing sword. The actual blade inside is almost indestructible!"
"This sword is probably made of a very rare meteorite iron. This is the best sword I have ever seen..."
After handing the sword to Li Ang, Kloze was still sighing. It seemed that he, who was once a blacksmith, loved high-quality weapons very much.
This sword looks even more ancient after the surface coating has been completely worn away.
The sword body is very smooth, but it looks dull and inconspicuous. It feels like a wooden product rather than metal, but when you touch it with your hands, it has the coolness of metal.
There is a line of incomprehensible runes in the middle of the sword blade, on both sides. The runes look like they have penetrated into the blade, which is very strange.
And near the sword, there is a gryphon engraved on it.
Li Ang held the sword and weighed it, and it felt more comfortable.
A leaf fell from the tree nearby and landed on the black wood-like sword blade which did not look sharp. The sword did not move, but the leaf was still divided into two halves directly by the blade.
Such a unique and sharp sword should have been a treasure known all over the world.
But it was deliberately covered up with a layer of ordinary silver plating, even sacrificing its original sharp effect for this purpose - this must be a helpless choice.
The Griffin crest printed on the sword's hilt was worn away, and the coat of arms engraved on the sword's blade was also covered and hidden...
It is easy to guess what this sword means - it is probably a token of allegiance given by Griffin Knights to the Pendor royal family.
Just like 'Dragon's Fang' dedicated to King Raven Kingdom by Dragon Knight Order.
Then, the origin of this body will be easier to guess.
Shaking his head and sighing, Li Ang summoned Sarah and asked her to make patterns and flags according to Griffin crest on the sword.
Then, he and Sarah will take the coat of arms to the county government, that is, go to White Deer Fortress to register.
Li Ang definitely does not intend to go to Long River Town. Although Ailedge was previously designated as Knight's Territory directly under Duke Elfwan, but now Ailedge is gone, and Long River Town cannot control it...
Long River Town is now Grand Duke Alma's territory. The Grand Duke certainly doesn't have a good impression of him, and Li Ang doesn't want to commit suicide.
Now this village is the newly built territory 'Wheat Fragrance Village'. Geographically speaking, this village belongs to the jurisdiction of White Deer Fortress.
The registration of coats of arms and pioneer collars is a necessary process.
Go to Lion City Noble Council for registration approval, obtain the identity of Pioneer Lord, and confirm the general direction of developing the territory - the registration at that time was Long River Forest.
After you start building a territory, you need to go to the higher-level unit near the territory, that is, go to the county to register your flag and coat of arms, so that other nearby lords will not regard you as a bandit and suppress you...
The county will temporarily retain the coat of arms of the developed territory, and will apply for verification after Pioneer Lord has established the territory.
The verification is also completed by the county - the principle of proximity. After all, it is too far to send people from Royal Noble Council, and there is no high-speed rail in this era.
After passing the inspection and acceptance of the territory, the county will report it to Royal Noble Council together with the registered coat of arms.
Until Noble Council receives the verification results from the county, the lord's coat of arms will be officially sealed, a formal title will be issued, and a notice will be sent to the nobles across the country to indicate that a new member of the ruling class has been added.
For those who fail the review of the pioneering territory, if they have a good relationship with the lords in the county, they may have a chance to make amends, otherwise they may have their noble emblems taken back and lose their Pioneer Lord qualifications.
The responsibilities of Sarah and External Affairs Officer also include these social affairs.
Early the next morning, Li Ang and Sarah set out for White Deer Fortress.
The road leading to White Deer Fortress was not easy to walk. It took Li Ang and Sarah a full half time to complete the eighty-mile mountain road - the road conditions were so bad that the horses could not run at all.
No wonder Ailedge was not able to rescue White Deer Fortress in time when Gatu people attacked him.
White Deer Fortress is a castle located on the eastern border of the kingdom. It is a mountain fortress guarding the eastern passage.
Unlike Northeast Frontier Brave Shield Fortress, White Deer Fortress has been established for many years.
A hundred years ago, this place was just an ordinary pioneer territory, just like Ailedge Village.
However, as more and more territory was developed to the southeast of Long River Town, the distance from Long River Town became further and further away, so White Deer Fortress was established as the county seat and a separate county was established.
Brave Shield Fortress is actually the same over there.
In recent decades, after the Bacchus Empire in the south gradually pushed the country northward and built the 'Shield Wind Fortress' in the south of the Dengjier Mountains, White Deer Fortress, as the first frontline, faced war after war.
White Deer Fortress guards the eastern passage of the kingdom. Without taking White Deer Fortress, Bacchus Empire will not be able to enter the hinterland of the kingdom. In this regard, it is similar to Brave Shield Fortress.
White Deer Fortress Lord Baron Godric rose to fame through defensive battles one after another.
But unlike Count Oden, a famous general who is good at opening up territories, Baron Godric is an excellent 'defender'.
He never takes the initiative to attack Bacchus Empire, but he can repel the enemy in every defensive battle, and then continuously expands and strengthens White Deer Fortress.
In the past few decades, the border castle White Deer Fortress has been expanded at least eight times, and each expansion added city defenses to the original one.
White Deer Fortress was built on the top of a mountain. The terrain is dangerous and the defensive position is excellent. It is a dangerous place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Thanks to Baron Godric's spared no effort in city defense construction, White Deer Fortress has now become a towering fortress. Bacchus Empire has not had the idea of making an attempt to attack the eastern part of the kingdom for several years.
The first time he saw White Deer Fortress, Li Ang had a twinge of envy and jealousy.
Because this is an extremely beautiful castle, and it must be a first-class five-star scenic spot in modern times.
The entire castle stands on a high mountain, or the entire mountain is a castle. The high walls erected on the mountainside increase the gap between the outermost wall of the castle and the valley at the foot of the mountain to tens of meters, which looks extremely spectacular.
The stone walls are mottled and the roof is covered with red tiles. There are no gorgeous decorations, but against the backdrop of the forest behind the mountain, it reveals a rough and simple beauty.
There are also independent lookouts and military stations arranged on the hills on both sides of the castle.
Above the city gate hangs the red background Three Lions Banner, which is the flag of Baron Godric.
The defenders in front of the gate looked energetic, and most of them were armored archers.
After all, this is a border fortress, and these archers are probably the most serious and responsible guards Li Ang has ever encountered. Even when they saw Li Ang's new black-on-white Griffin banner, they still carefully checked the noble emblems and sent someone to 'escort' the two of them to the interior of the castle.
The attitude was very polite, but it looked a bit like being escorted.
"Lord Godric In the main building at the top, your horse can be temporarily placed in the stables below the city. We will take good care of it..."
After "handing over" Li Ang to the two attendants in the castle, and politely bidding farewell to Li Ang, several archers returned to their posts.
The two attendants were more polite and enthusiastic, but more vigilant - they asked Li Ang and Sarah to take off their swords.
"Lord Li Ang, I'm sorry, except for Lord Baron himself, everyone needs to be disarmed to enter the main building of the castle. I will follow you with your sword, don't worry about losing it."
Sarah and Li Ang looked at each other, both of them were a little surprised.
Even in Lion City Noble Council, there is no such requirement-the sword is not only a weapon for the nobles, but also a symbol of dominance.
You must know that the symbol of elite armed forces such as Dragon Knights or Griffin Knights swearing allegiance to their respective kings is the sword.
