Beginning as King of Elden

Chapter 45 Swordsmanship of the Great Sword
The blacksmith's enhanced forging was about to end, and Li Lin returned to the forging room.

Watching the blacksmith put down the last hammer and observing his serious and meticulous expression on the weapon, Li Lin finally couldn't help but ask.

"Can you please take care of Rodrika?"

The blacksmith looked at the weapon and paused slightly.

"Do you mean what you say?"

He said mockingly: "Let that girl be taken care of by an ugly hybrid who can only forge weapons?"

Sure enough... Rodrika's perception ability is beyond ordinary people, and Mr. Xiu Gu is indeed a gentle person.

"Too stupid, there's no way the girl would be willing."

Li Lin's expression softened a little, and he said in a serious tone: "This is also from her wish, I just did the job of conveying it."

"She wants to learn from you, and wants you to guide her."

"Impossible." The blacksmith retorted immediately.

"I don't believe there is such a thing."

He paused, his tone softened, and he said helplessly, "I don't want to doubt you, but I've had enough of being ridiculed."

Is it the other faders who let him strengthen his weapons and pass by...

Li Lin lowered his eyes.

The blacksmith completed the forging and returned the giant curved blade to its original owner.

Now, Li Lin is barely qualified to call himself a person who is good at using swords.

He could vaguely feel the joy of this weapon being strengthened, as well as the hard work that the forger put into it.

"I don't know your life history, but you are indeed a good blacksmith. Thank you for your help,"

Li Lin said in a deep voice.

He seems to have done some superfluous things, but I still hope that Rodrika can find a good teacher.

I also hope that Mr. Xiugu can have a better future.

This time, in the round table hall, Li Lin accidentally saw Roger who he had seen in Stonewell City.

He tried to learn magic from this mage, but unfortunately failed.

During this meeting, the mage sat on a wooden chair and covered his lower body with a coarse cloth.

Li Lin vaguely saw that his lower body seemed to be pierced by thorns.

"Congratulations on defeating Gregor and obtaining the Great Rune."

His face was full of sickness.

"It seems that both of us have achieved our goals. This is a gift for you, please accept it."

The man in the magic hat handed him a slightly ornate rapier.

Li Lin didn't accept it right away, and looked at him in silence.

"Haha..." He laughed a little self-deprecatingly, "Looking at me like this, my body can't move freely, let alone fighting."

"So this item is useless to me. Please accept it."

"Okay." Seeing the seriously ill man, no matter what words of comfort he gave seemed like an insult, Li Lin accepted the stabbing sword.

I'll bring your share.

----

The battle with the Queen of the Full Moon came to an end, and by virtue of his merciful luck, he finally defeated the phantom of the goddess.

But he still felt ashamed at the moment when he saw the powerlessness felt by the queen when she summoned the dragon.

How can we better defeat giant creatures?
For orthodox fighters, the only thing that can deal with giant creatures is giant weapons.

The so-called "Dragon Slaying Sword".

It has been said that the first-line strategy team in previous games was mainly composed of mages, and the remaining professions basically had powerful long-range means.

The reason why it is called "basic" is that even in the later stages of the game, there is still a ruthless person with a huge sword (or even two) close to the end.

This ruthless man has a good relationship with Li Lin in his previous life. Like the weapon he uses, he is quite a heroic person.

In reality, although he is not a professional fighter, he is also a family practitioner with a family of martial arts.

According to his boastful description, the swordsmanship of the extra-large sword he uses is the anti-dragon swordsmanship improved by himself based on the technique of the Xingyi Broadsword.

After all, there are no dragons in reality, so there will be no related technologies.

And the weapon he used was an extra-large sword called "Jianke Great Sword".

Li Lin, who is also a warrior and lacks the ability to deal with giant creatures, also asked him about the sword technique of the giant sword, and with his superhuman talent, he mastered this sword technique in a short period of time.

Li Lin still vaguely remembered that he once said that he obtained this "Sword Skeleton Great Sword" at the bottom of Moen City under the world map.

At the beginning of the journey, he also went in the direction of Moen City in order to obtain the turtle shell shield.

However, after finding the turtle shell shield, he did not continue down that path.

It seems necessary to visit Moen City.

He is now strong enough to use the swordsmanship of an extra-large sword. If he can obtain the "Sword Skeleton Great Sword", he will not have to deal with giant creatures as hard as before.

After leaving the hall of the round table, Li Lin wanted to go to Kalia's God's Tower to activate the queen's big rune.

Regrettably, perhaps because of the incompleteness of the big rune, he was unable to enter the tower of gods, nor could he activate the big rune.

Perhaps it was also because it had no effect, although the unborn big rune stayed quietly in his body, it did not impose any burden on him.

That being the case, let's go to Moen City first and see if we can get the extra-large sword named "Sword of Sword Skeleton".

Speaking of which, the bald mage I met in the abandoned church treated him very well, maybe you can give him the pyroxene key of the academy first?

----------

The bald mage gave the academy's pyroxene key to him, but he didn't accept it right away, expressing that he didn't want to rob others of the opportunity to enter the academy.

Fortunately, in the process of advancing the academy, Li Lin collected another pyroxene key.

Only then did the bald mage agree to accept the pyroxene key.

After receiving his repeated thanks, Li Lin returned to Ningmgfu and prepared to go to Moen City.

"Looks like a battle-hardened fader."

When passing under a broken bridge beside Yakir Lake, he met a man wearing a strange silver hollow iron hat.

"But be careful, this Lake Yakir is the domain of dragons."

The man who couldn't see his face reminded him kindly.

"Dragon is powerful and beautiful, but also terrifying."

"Unless you are an immortal who wants Dragon Flame to burn himself to death."

"..."

It always felt like I was mocking myself.

Though it's unlikely he knew he had touched death by dragonfire at one point.

He will probably never forget the pain that seemed to burn his soul.

But the man's words were also out of kindness, so Li Lin had no choice but to thank him politely.

Yakir lake occupied by dragons?

If you can get the great sword in Moen City, let's try the sword with this dragon species.

After bidding farewell to the man, Li Lin continued to ride his horse to Moen City.

After defeating the queen, he has now obtained two big runes, and he probably has a little bit of strength to protect himself in this troubled world.

In this state of mind, the scenery of Nyingmugfu also seems to come to life.

There were not many soldiers on this road, and Li Lin was able to enjoy the surrounding scenery on horseback with rare interest.

If it weren't for the protracted broken war, the world would be full of such beautiful scenes, right?
During the journey, Li Lin also stepped into some caves.

The reason why I haven't tried to set foot in the cave before is because in the real world, sneak attacks, poisoning, and traps are all too useful for ordinary flesh and blood.

Even if it was him, if he fell into the trap in the dark cave without sufficient precautions before, and was besieged by multiple monsters, he might only end up in the same fate as countless faded people who fell on the road of adventure.

Now, his attributes and perception should be enough to cope with this.

And so, in one of the caves of Nimgfor, he came across a strange faded one.
