Chapter 71

[070-Mind if I pull it out and take a look?]

Even in this dilapidated and dim environment, that gorgeous long sword still glows like a filter.

Not to mention the value of the gold and gems, the decorations on this long sword and the overall shape, even for a layman, have amazing craftsmanship.

Every inch of the curve is incomparably beautiful and appropriate, integrated into one, even the scabbard is engraved with a similar pattern, and a black crystal is inlaid in the center of the cross-shaped sword grid.

Overall, in fact, the shape of this sword is not too exaggerated.

The body of the sword is about one meter three by visual inspection, and it is still within the range of a normal two-handed sword.

But this workmanship and decoration is really a bit excessive.

Although Lin Jie does not have a particularly professional eye for identification, the exquisiteness of this sword is visible to the naked eye. With such a craftsmanship, even if it is gold-plated and artificial gems, it is equally valuable.

Under normal circumstances, no one should fight with such a sword, right?

If this is accidentally bumped…

Lin Jie twitched the corners of his mouth looking at the sparkling long sword on the counter.

This… I really asked you to hand over your worries and burdens to me, but what are you trying to make trouble by directly giving me such an expensive sword? Remember https://m. xswang.com

Is this your decision?

What decision?

Lin Jie looked up at Joseph’s expression again, the old man’s eyes were full of determination and relief.

Suddenly thoughtful.

This is not like a joke, and from the current contact, Joseph is not a person who can joke.

For Lin Jie’s previous proposal to give him the long sword, it should be Joseph’s answer.

From the unusual exquisiteness of this sword, it can be judged that this is not a practical weapon, or a weapon with little practicality.

It’s more of a ceremonial sword of some sort.

Then, the meaning of this sword may be a symbol of Joseph’s previous military experience, responsibility and honor.

Lin Jie couldn’t help but think of Melissa. Although this bear child is a bear in nature, from the perspective of appearance and behavior, it cannot be cultivated by ordinary family background, and Joseph’s requirements for Melissa are also very strict.

From this point of view, I feel that Joseph may be that kind of military family, and even won some honorary titles.

This can also explain where his strong sense of justice comes from.

Just being a retired soldier may not have such persistence, but if it is taught by the family since childhood, then it is completely reasonable.

Although as far as Lin Jie knew, the nobles living in the central area of Nuojin were all nominal, but even so, their social status was still higher than that of ordinary rich people.

It is undeniable that these noble families have a long history and brilliance once.

Now Joseph looks like he wants to give this sword to Lin Jie. This means that he intends to put it down completely, right?

Out of prudence and respect, Lin Jie cleared his throat and asked earnestly, “Are you sure? Your decision, give me this sword? This is your inheritance, don’t you think about it anymore?”

“Sure.”

Joseph nodded, looked at the long sword in front of him, and said, “You’re right, I really have more than enough power, even if it’s inheritance, I don’t have the qualifications to continue now, I should also learn to let go. A sword is too heavy for me, or any of us, to bear.”

“You can take it over and we appreciate it.”

The curse on the magic sword brought together the huge resentment of the entire lost elf kingdom, and even the gods were helpless.

They repressed again and again, and ultimately failed.

However, because of the beliefs and dogmas upheld by the Secret Ritual Tower, he was always reluctant to give up, and now he finally sees the facts clearly.

Lin Jie sighed, it seems that this is another family that has gone downhill.

And he should have found a new way out in the future, so he was so determined to hand over this sword to him to show his determination.

But it’s also a matter of course, even more true than Doris’s loss of status because of the loss of the full meaning of the family crest.

After all, Azir has no more wars now, and other nobles are still in decline, not to mention a hereditary military family like Joseph.

If you want to survive, you have to find another way out.

But it was so polite to send things, it really made him feel a little embarrassed…

Lin Jie smiled, stretched out his hand to pick up the long sword and looked at it: “Hey, don’t be so polite, helping customers is my hobby, and I feel very happy to be able to help you.”

Hmm…it feels a lot lighter than I thought.

It was indeed a ceremonial sword.

Lin Jie nodded secretly, and looked at the long sword against the light from beginning to end. The more he looked, the more impressed he was at this detail.

Joseph watched the bookstore owner effortlessly pick up the magic sword Candela, even holding the hilt with one hand and supporting the blade with his fingers in the other hand. He couldn’t help frowning. It’s a little hard to pick up…

Although it seems to be the same length as a normal sword, in fact, the material of this sword is all from a dream, and its weight is even of his Destruction Grade.

And until this moment, the owner of the bookstore has not had too much fluctuation.

Joseph could already see the evil magic energy flowing from the “magic eye” on the sword, and the tumbling darkness under the crystal surface was eager to choose someone to devour.

“It’s so beautiful!”

Lin Jie praised without hesitation.

No matter whether it is cold weapons or hot weapons, it is the romance brought by the desire for struggle flowing in the blood of men.

He also loved this elegant long sword in his heart, and couldn’t help but suggest, “Do you mind if I pull it out and take a look?”

“…”

Joseph’s heart jumped, the curse of the magic sword was mainly on the body of the sword.

The Elf King Candela, who had gone mad because of the plague, finally committed suicide with this sword.

This sword, like a wedge, nailed Candela to death and imprisoned his soul forever in the blade.

The sword didn’t actually have a scabbard at first.

The current scabbard is actually a later addition to the Mystic Tower, which has the effect of inhibiting the spread of the curse. Once it is pulled out, the curse will first attack the sword bearer. If the will is not strong enough, it may go crazy on the spot.

Even the glorious knights must be fully armed before they are allowed to touch this magic sword.

but……

In front of him is the owner of the bookstore after all.

Joseph nodded: “Of course…you can be careful.”

Lin Jie nodded, of course he would be careful, it would be bad if he got cut.

Then he slowly drew the long sword out.

“bass–”

Like a flowing white flame.

The entire bookstore was instantly illuminated. This mirror-like long sword was thin and sharp, shining with dazzling brilliance, and an unknown language was engraved on it.

Joseph saw jet-black magic energy like venom spurting out of the long sword instantly.
