Eighth Crown

Time unknowingly came a month later.

On the day when the wave was about to come, Liu Xia finally came out of the basement and saw the long-awaited sun.

But even so, because in the past 20 days, he has often sparred with Esdes and Egley and taught swordsmanship in the martial arts field, so he didn't feel like a lifetime.

"You finally figured it out."

After seeing Liu Xia walking out of the basement, Esdes couldn't help but put his hands on his hips, "If you don't come out again, I'll have to call you out."

Even if Liu Xia didn't tell them when the second wave would come, from the hourglass carved by the dragon, everyone knew the specific time of the wave.

Everyone in the royal capital of the Melomag Kingdom now knows that the second wave will come in three hours.

Although the location of the wave's arrival is uncertain, for safety reasons, almost all the civilians hid at home and did not go out. The Kingdom Knights and adventurers were fully armed and ready to hunt down the monsters that emerged from the wave.

Because Aigrei shared the experience of Sait leading the wave, now the kingdom has a way to deal with it, at least not like the first time, everything has to cross the river by feeling the stones, and it needs to be led by Liu Xia secretly. Beat the tide in just a few hours.

During the first wave, without Liu Xia's guidance, the wave would last for more than two days. When the Kingdom Knights arrived and killed the three-headed demon dogs, the wave could be repulsed.

Although Liu Xia didn't stop the wave from spreading in the first place, many people died in Sait's lead, but without him, it is estimated that more people would die in Sait's lead, and the survivors are likely to be less than 10%.

"Esdes, you came just in time."

After seeing Esdes, Liu Xia said, "The king just sent a message to me, saying that the sword you made for you is finally ready."

Generally speaking, a skilled craftsman would build a weapon within three to five days, but this time, the weapon he helped Esdes build took 20 days to build.

The main reason is that the level of the weapon that Liu Xia brought back from the forest of confusion is too high, and even the palace blacksmith said that there is no way to smelt it.

After that, the king came forward to offer a reward, and then found a skilled blacksmith from a private weapon shop, handed over the forging process to him, and finally started work.

In view of this, the weapon has only been forged until now, waiting for Esdes to pick it up.

"Oh? Is it finally forged?"

Esteston's eyes lit up, and he said impatiently: "There is still a little time left before the arrival of the wave, so just go and get it within this time."

The two left the manor and walked towards a weapons store near the center of the inner city.

Along the way, there were extremely few pedestrians, let alone civilians, not even the nobles. Most of them were knights and adventurers in armor, eager to try.

No one had a look of fear on their faces, everyone's faces were very confident, full of expressions that didn't take the tide seriously.

It's not that they are conceited, but that they know that the Four Holy Heroes have been summoned, and that the front line of the wave will be resisted by the heroes. They just need to pick some weak monsters to defeat them and gain experience points to level up.

As for the possibility that the brave men can't beat the tide?

What are you kidding?

Those are the Four Holy Warriors, possessing legendary weapons, and beings that are no different from gods. How many legends have they left in the ancient times? They are impossible to fail.

This country, no, to be precise, people in this world have an extremely blind trust in the Four Holy Heroes.

As for the consequences of this blind trust, that is not what Liu Xia cares about.

A street in the inner city.

This is almost a street tailored for adventurers.

Whether it is a material store that buys and sells monster materials, a potion store that sells potions, or an equipment store that buys and sells weapons and armor, there are everything on this street.

Basically, as long as you run from the beginning to the end, the adventurers can dispose of all their gains and be fully prepared before the adventure.

Relatively speaking, there are not many people here, which is much more lively than the deserted streets outside, but it is not as crowded as usual.

Under the nearly 100% gaze of passers-by, Lucia and Esdes came to an equipment store deep in the street.

"welcome!"

The one who greeted the two warmly was a bald-headed uncle who looked in his thirties, with a bold black beard on his chin, and a very strong body.

"What do you two need?"

The bald-headed uncle cast a somewhat surprised look at Liu Xia, and then asked the two of them as if he was not affected by his demonic appearance at all.

"It's your shop that accepts the king's forging bounty, right?"

Liu Xia walked to the counter, put a token from the king in front of the bald uncle, and continued: "We are here to get weapons."

"Is it your commission?"

The bald-headed uncle laughed in surprise, "Oh, I really made you laugh, I have never seen a weapon of such good quality before, but it made me riveted, and I used all the forging techniques I learned from the far east. It took so many days to forge it successfully..."

As the uncle said this, he checked the authenticity of the token, and after confirming that it was genuine, he walked into the storage room at the back, and then walked out holding a silver-white Western sword and handed it to Liu Xia.

"The material used to make this sword is silver iron of the highest grade, which is several times more expensive than magic iron. Not only did the blood purification treatment, but I also carried out the enchanting treatment. It can be said that it is one of my most satisfactory works so far. ."

In the game world, equipment has durability.

If the iron weapon is not dealt with in time after being contaminated with blood, the weapon itself will slowly oxidize, and finally the durability will return to zero, and it will be completely scrapped.

Because Liu Xia's weapon has become a Noble Phantasm and has all been transformed into a spiritual child, there is no need to worry about this, but any other weapon, as long as there is no indestructible attribute, will have such a risk.

The so-called blood purification treatment refers to the treatment of the weapon to isolate the blood, so that even if the weapon still sees blood, it will not be oxidized by the blood and can be used for a long time.

And if blood purification processing is a skill that ordinary blacksmiths can use, then enchanting processing is a very advanced technology, and people without magic qualifications cannot learn it.
