Another day passed.
Søren didn't know how Gloria's research was going, so he didn't disturb her.
This time, Gloria's research was on the analysis of the special metal of the Githyankis. The related research had been going on for decades, and she relied on her authority to get the corresponding information. Now what she had to do was to re-analyze it according to the information, and then master its characteristics. Whether she could make a breakthrough or not depended on whether she could find a new research direction. So now Gloria was like learning knowledge, not making an academic breakthrough, and the progress of her mastery was quite fast.
Søren was also very curious about the Githyankis' memory transformation metal!
Because he felt that this thing was quite high-end.
Even in the Star Age, the research on memory metal was not so supernatural, and it could even automatically transform. So for Gloria's research progress, Søren basically fully supported it. He would find ways to buy any expensive materials she wanted. Even if this thing couldn't be used to make Golems for the time being, it was quite amazing to be able to make Søren a weapon that could transform!
The transformation of the Githyankis' weapon required psionic energy.
Søren didn't have psionic energy, so he could use the Silver Sword of Githyankis, but there was no way to transform it. So if Gloria's research progress had a breakthrough, maybe she could try to make it have the ability to transform through energy storage.
For a top Rogue like Søren, weapon transformation could definitely burst out extraordinary combat power!
…
The third day.
Even with Gloria's status as a member of the Witch Council, Søren waited until the day after tomorrow to receive the news of the Council's approval. The Witch Council had quite strict control over the bulk food and weapons trade in the North. Not to mention such extraordinary weapons, even ordinary military weapons were quite strict. This was because the Senior Witches in the North were more confident. If it were in other places, such as some kingdoms in the South, it was estimated that even the bulk iron trade would be strictly controlled.
Just like the salt and iron monopolies in the Central Plains, many kingdoms were worried that their weapons would fall into the hands of outsiders.
For example, Lizardmen, Half-Orcs, Gnolls, and so on. It would be better if they fell into the hands of human rebels. Once they fell into the hands of these humanoid creatures who were born with extraordinary strength, their combat strength would be greatly improved with a large number of weapons and equipment.
"Your Excellency."
A middle-aged man who looked like a clerk walked up to Søren and lowered his head slightly. "The things you want have been delivered. This is the bill that needs to be paid. The council is waiting for me to report back."
Behind him were three heavy steel golems, as well as several city guards dressed as guards.
It was an arms deal worth nearly 100,000 Kindler Coins. Even the Witch Council had sent out steel golems to protect them. Although the middle-aged man in front of him was dressed as a clerk, he was actually a Grade 3 Wizard. Relying on his relationship with Gloria, Søren finally managed to purchase a batch of rare grade 1 firearms from the Witch Council. At the same time, he also received the implicit support of the Witch Council. Since they were willing to sell him firearms, the Witch Council had obviously accepted Søren's identity.
"No problem."
Soran gave a look to the second mate behind him and then opened a box. Inside the box, there were swords and weapons neatly arranged. All he ordered were weapons. Half of the pirates' combat strength was supported by weapons. On the contrary, they didn't need much armor. Moreover, Søren had a dragon and a group of Quetzalcoatlus near his camp. If he needed armor, he could make a batch of high-quality leather armor himself.
Pirates basically didn't wear heavy metal armor. Their combat style wasn't suitable for heavy armor!
* Clang! *
Søren pulled out a long sword and then glanced at its attributes.
Item Type: Long Sword [+ 1] (Enchanted)
Item Grade: Grade 1 Rare Item
Item Description: A weapon made of Exquisite Hundred Fold Forged Steel. During the forging process, other special materials were mixed in. It was made using the Northern Folding Forged Steel Process. After the completion, a simple alchemy enchantment was performed. The blade of this weapon has basic runes engraved on it. It can cause additional damage after hitting the enemy.
Requirements: 8 points of Strength.
Effects: Folding Forged Steel, + 2 Sharpness, + 1 Penetration, + 1 Energy Damage.
…
In terms of attributes.
Such a grade 1 weapon couldn't be compared to Søren's Curved Sword + 1. After all, these were rare grade weapons that were mass-produced. However, as rare grade weapons made in the North, they all had a rather obvious characteristic. That was, all of these weapons had undergone a simple enchantment process. Although it was only a 1 point increase in energy damage, it had a significant impact on the battle, especially when dealing with some enemies.
* Clang! *
Søren swung his sword and slashed an ordinary short sword. The latter was directly cut in half, but the former didn't even have a scratch. After all, a rare grade weapon was still a rare grade weapon. Once compared with ordinary weapons, the gap was quite obvious. He nodded to his men next to him, and immediately two people carried a heavy box over. Basically, Søren's profits from this trip were all in it. Even the income from killing the white dragon was mostly used on this batch of weapons.
It could be said that.
With this batch of weapons, the pirates under his command would have the combat power equivalent to a city's standing army.
Whether it was dealing with the indigenous people or another pirate king.
Even if they attacked the cities on the south coast in the future, the elite pirates under Søren's command would have the ability to fight against the regular army. Of course, Søren couldn't always stay overseas. When the time was right, he would eventually extend his hand back to the mainland.
…
Time gradually approached February.
Søren unexpectedly stayed here for five more days, and then waited for Gloria to complete her research on the Silver Sword of Gith. After that, they embarked on the journey back to the outer islands. Before leaving, Søren took another look at the port city in the north. He didn't know if it would be as peaceful as it was now the next time he came. Because there were powerful northern witches here, it wasn't very affected. He just received news that a kingdom in the south had fallen into war.
Duke Pydnor.
A southern noble that Søren had never heard of. Three days ago, he publicly announced his dissatisfaction with the cruel rule of the king and other nobles. Then, he led his loyal army to launch a rebellion.
This was the news on the surface.
From Gloria's mouth, Søren also learned another part, that was, the Witch Council investigated and found that there were demons active in it.
This rebellious kingdom was embedded in Søren's territory!
