Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 843: Chapter 98: The Once-Popular Armor (4)

Thanks to having numerous dwarf master forgers in the territory, the heavy plate armor of the Hesse Guards is custom-made by dwarf artisans, while the lances are crafted by the territory’s best artisans. The Black Forest Guard Knights are equipped with heavy swords, two-handed greatswords, and long halberds to confront the Empire’s diverse enemies, ensuring better protection for the Lord.

As the landmark Forbidden Guard Knights of the territory, they are also the most valued by Su Li. Their scale is rapidly expanding, and according to Su Li’s planning, this will be the largest secular knight order in the territory. Apart from having the Black Forest Guard headquarters in Heisen City, there will be various Black Forest Guard fortresses in other regions to ensure prompt readiness for battle in times of crisis.

They need to appear frequently enough to garner more admiration and praise from the masses.

Thus Su Li, smiling, said to Tiberus: "Since the territory is so lively and jubilant, stop complaining. Shortly, when we visit the Black Forest Armory, I’ll find you a set of equally splendid armor as my support for your championship."

A perfect set of vibranium rune armor is invaluable, possibly worth thousands of golden crowns. How could Tiberus not be excited by Su Li’s generous reward?

Immediately, his dissatisfaction from the tavern yesterday vanished like smoke, and he said with a beaming smile: "Goddess above, praise be to you, Lord, for your virtues. I swear that my war axe and I will forever be loyal to you, Lord. Wherever your sword points, that’s where I shall battle and shed blood."

Su Li nodded, no need to rush, soon your moment to shine will come.

As the two spoke, under the escort of the Black Forest Guard Knights, the group arrived in front of the Black Forest Armory.

Here stands a huge stone monument crafted by dwarves, inscribed with the maxim: "The flame patterns on the blades aren’t decorations — each sword is blessed by a combat priest upon completion."

This armory is one of Oliver’s most significant investment achievements and part of the Holy Industrial Alliance.

Stationed here are over 300 dwarves and more than 200 human artisans, collectively forging endless military equipment for the territory.

Since the high-level directly affiliated attendants had notified this place of Su Li’s visit, dozens of armory personnel had gathered at the entrance to welcome him.

Su Li toured around but did not find his forging minister and asked: "Where is Belos Dragon Hammer?"

A dwarf hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "Dean Belos is currently forging armor. He asks for your understanding, as he truly cannot spare any time to greet you."

Tiberus immediately grabbed the other’s collar fiercely, lifting the dwarf who was like a heavy iron block, and asked: "What do you mean by can’t spare time? I see it as sheer arrogance and slackness! The Lord has just helped this fool rise to Champion Level, what’s keeping him busy? Could he be ready to ascend to Divine Chosen Level? Apart from such matters, what could possibly demand his time?"

Having just broken through to Champion Level, Belos Dragon Hammer certainly couldn’t immediately advance to Divine Chosen Level.

Eager to avoid Su Li’s misunderstanding, the other explained promptly: "Lord, Dean Belos is working on something immensely important. He dares not easily abandon the task for fear of wasting the territory’s wealth. After all, he’s forging Divine Chosen Level armor!"

Su Li immediately recalled this significant matter!

Busy with the Radiant Competition Festival celebrations these days, he’d almost forgotten the moment for the descent of Divine Chosen Level armor was fast approaching.

If a set of Divine Chosen Level armor could be born during this Radiant Competition Festival, it would undoubtedly further elevate the fervor of the celebration in the territory!
