Carglise brought good news for Bosley and Tamar. To be exact, he brought back a new set of Archer's Armor. The Archer's Armor was modified from the Crimson Banner Cavalry's Armor. The surface had been polished and engraved with patterns, making it look completely different from the half-finished Archer's Armor.
Carglise placed the new set of Archer's Armor on the table. The new set of Archer's Armor was dark green in color, and the light patterns on it were said to be based on the aesthetic style of the Tree Elves. The Archer's Armor shone brightly under the sunlight that penetrated through the stained glass ceiling of the hall. It looked like a piece of jade art, but compared to the original, Brando noticed that the new Archer's Armor had an additional long feather cloak.
The cloak was not only added for aesthetic reasons, but also to reduce the overall weight of the Archer's Armor without increasing the cost. Erouine's Master Forger and the future Master Alchemist had thought of many ways to reduce the weight of the Archer's Armor. In the end, they came up with a clever idea, and that was to add an additional magic cloak to the Archer's Armor.
This cloak was actually enchanted with a spell similar to Wind Feather. Wind Feather was a Level 1 spell of the Wind Element. It could slightly increase the speed of the target and allow the target to float.
Carglise even brought two female Tree Elves to demonstrate, and the results were excellent. Although the two Tree Elves were unavoidably clumsy after putting on the magic armor, it was definitely worth it compared to the increase in defense it brought. Moreover, after activating the magic cloak, it was as if wings had sprouted from their backs, and they could leap up and down from wall to wall.
Brando thought that the design of the cloak was a stroke of genius, especially when the two Tree Elves put on the new Emerald Armor and pulled up the hood of their cloaks, revealing their pointed chins. They held longbows in their hands, and the edges of their cloaks drooped down to the ground. His eyes almost popped out of their sockets. It was said that the Silver Elves had a legendary army called Lin Ge's Blade, and they were also dressed in the same way. The Lin Ge's Blade had silver robes and silver bows, and the Tree Elves' Archers did not pale in comparison.
Metisha seemed to be in a daze. She looked at the two Tree Elves in front of her and suddenly asked: "My Lord, can I lead this army?"
Brando did not expect Metisha, who had always been aloof from worldly affairs, to take the initiative to ask: "Metisha? … They're Elves? "
"I know … I know …" Metisha, she lowered her head and said: "I'm sorry … My Lord...
Brendel looked at him and suddenly remembered something. "You used to be the commander of Lin Ge's Blade?"
Metisha's Metisha.. and Metisha, Metisha.
"Amazing, Medissa." Brendel praised. The Lin Ge's Blade was the strongest army in the Silver Elven Empire. It had been the strongest Archer Army in Wohnde for centuries. Metisha being their commander was something to be proud of.
But this Silver Elf girl had never mentioned it. Brando did not even know that she knew archery.
"Thank you …" Metisha's face turned red as she replied in a small voice.
"You're a Silver Elf? You've experienced the War of the Holy Saints! "The Tree Elf girl's eyes lit up in disbelief. She immediately looked at Brando: "My Lord, she's the commander of the Silver Elves? Can you let her teach us? "
Brando was stunned.
He was still thinking that Metisha, the Silver Fairy Princess, had hidden her abilities well. He did not expect the Tree Elves to give him another surprise. This was because the commander of the Tree Elves also held the position of Archery Instructor. If the Tree Elves wanted Metisha to teach them, it meant that they wanted Metisha to lead them.
In theory, the Tree Elves were his allies. Even if he wanted to appoint a commander, he would need their permission first.
But this was too much of an initiative.
Brando felt a little awkward: "Of course … But what about Mister Quinn?"
The Tree Elf leader, Quinn, had returned to the Green Tower after the war ended. However, all the Tree Elves and Druids he brought with him remained in his territory. Brando had full authority over the Tree Elves, but Quinn was still the commander of this army.
"Mister Quinn, it's fine," The Tree Elf girl shook her head and smiled: "Mister Quinn has already passed his position to me. I can make the decisions."
"You are?" Brando looked at her curiously.
The Tree Elf girl smiled. She already knew this young human lord, but Brando didn't. She extended her hand and smiled: "Finny, I'm the leader of the Archers. Nice to meet you, my lord. "
Her 'human etiquette' startled Brando. He had never seen such an extroverted Tree Elf. In his mind, the Tree Elves were a simple and cautious race.
However, Brando still extended his hand and shook Finny's hand.
"If that's the case." He hesitated for a moment before replying: "Then I'll entrust Metisha to you. She's my best subordinate. I hope you can work well together. "
"Of course. I never dreamed that a hero who experienced the War of the Holy Saints would lead us." Finny said happily.
"Hero?" Brando looked at Metisha in confusion. Although this Silver Fairy Princess was outstanding in all aspects, whether it was etiquette or the way she treated others, he still found it hard to associate her with the word 'hero'.
No matter how he looked at it, Metisha was still like a human girl who hadn't grown up yet. No matter how calm and mature she was, she was still like a little sister in his eyes.
The Silver Elf girl smiled faintly at him.
"Lady Metisha, may I ask how old you are now? Did you experience the War of the Lilies? "Finny asked curiously.
Metisha looked at Brando: "I'm actually in a spiritual state. Before the War of the Lilies, I had already returned to my ancient homeland in hibernation. If it wasn't for my lord, I would still be under the influence of the dark forces. But Sir Lord woke me up, just like the call of fate. "
"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were already …" Finny didn't expect Metisha to have died long ago. She looked at her with sympathy: "You must be a heroic spirit now, right? I heard that heroic spirits will assist wise kings … "
The archer captain couldn't help but look at Brando.
"Ahem, it's not that ridiculous." Brando immediately coughed loudly: "That's just a legend." He had always believed that he transmigrated to this world to make up for his regrets. His greatest hope now was to help the future Princess Gryphine revive Erouine.
As for Finny's unintentional words, he didn't even think about it. The throne was an unimaginable temptation to the greedy nobles of Erouine, but it was nothing more than a burden to him.
But back to the topic at hand, he was very satisfied with the archer armor that Bosley and Tamar had created. As expected of future grandmasters, this improved magic armor was impeccable in every aspect:
Winged Archer Armor
Defense: 4.5, Arrow Resistance + 2, Weight Reduction 20%
Wings of Wind: (Recharge in 10 minutes) Grants temporary levitation upon activation, Agility + 10%, Evasion + 5%. Lasts for 10 seconds.
Although the addition of a magic cloak wasn't cheap, it was still much easier than adding three layers of magic circles to the armor. Moreover, the magic cloak gave a huge boost to Dexterity by 10% and Evasion by 5%. Although it only lasted for a short 10 seconds, it was easy to imagine how much damage a Tree Elf Archer would suffer if he suddenly activated this ability while being approached by cavalry or infantry.
Presumably, their opponents would be shocked.
The cost of the armor was around 2000 Tor, and 300 sets would be around 600,000 Tor. With Brando's current output, it would only take him half a year to fully equip the Tree Elves with Schafflund's silver mines.
However, the benefits of the tree elf archers equipped with the new equipment would definitely far exceed the investment of 600,000 Tor. Money could still be earned, but special forces were as rare as nests in Wohnde. Brando firmly believed that good steel should be spent on the blade's edge.
Moreover, the magic crystal mine would soon be put into operation. The Dark Forest could produce 3 standard units of magic crystals per day, and it was considered a super rich mine. [Even though the Magic Ores are currently being used up by the territory, I believe that it will soon be full. I'm preparing to sell the excess Magic Ores to the outside world. After all, these Magic Ores are used as hard currency in any era in The Amber Sword's history, and this will be a huge fortune.
(A standard production of magic crystals per day was one Flame-Patterned Agate, or 10 Lesser Moon Crystals.)
In the long run, Brando didn't think that he would always be short on money. Once the Dark Forest was developed, it would be a huge fortune, but what he needed was a strong army to protect the wealth that belonged to Erouine.
"Excuse me, My Lord." At this time, Carglise finally shifted his gaze away from the Light Spirits flying up and down in the hall. He always felt that his choice to follow Brando was the wisest decision because there were so many new and interesting things around him.
Of course, only Brando could tolerate his captain's attention being diverted to irrelevant things during a serious discussion. For example, when Carglise was telling jokes to Monica, Brando pretended not to see it.
If it was any other lord of Aouine or Kirrlutz in this era, they would have kicked Carglise out of the hall and asked him to reflect on how he had violated the rules of nobility.
However, Brando was undoubtedly the most suitable master for Carglise. He only asked, "Is there anything else, Carglise?"
"Of course," Carglise replied, "I have a letter for you, My Lord."
"A letter for me?"
Brando was stunned. His men wouldn't write him a letter for no reason. The only person who would write him a letter could only be that person. He looked at the letter that Carglise took out and couldn't help but stare blankly.
What did the princess in history write to him this time?
