Lord of Rot

Chapter 309 The Lord Wants Everything
Sometimes Li Qi wonders why he is so busy developing.

He likes money very much, but he doesn't think about being rich, and there are not many things in this world that can arouse his interest in buying.

strength?That's not the case, although he doesn't resist killing enemies on the battlefield, but if there is peace in the world, he won't be able to start a war.

That is to save the struggling people at the bottom?He thinks that he is not only not so great, but also very bad.

If Li Qi sees someone starving to death, he will definitely help without hesitation, and he will draw his sword when he sees a gangster bullying a girl, but all he can do is save what I see, not the grandeur of saving the entire country idea.

right?

No one can deny rights, but Li Qi is far from being so obsessed with rights.

"So what spurs me to keep running forward, unwilling to stop?"

Li Qi spent a day and a night floating on the boat thinking about it. He didn't come out of the cabin until dawn when the rocket screamed loudly. He could only temporarily put the problem in the back of his mind.

The boat has returned to Pigtail Bay.

After reaching the shore, Li Qi turned over and rode on the rocket: "Go, let the blacksmith make you a good saddle!"

"Cuckoo!"

Rocket turned his head and called Li Qi twice, flapping his wings.

The soldier who had just walked by was taken aback.

"Rocket, don't be so naughty." Li Qi felt helpless.

The frightened soldier looked at the rocket with some fear and some respect, and said to Li Qi: "My lord, it is really a magical Pegasus!"

"Rocket is not an ordinary horse." Li Qi said, "All the crabs on the boat are sent to the castle to be raised by the kitchen."

The soldier nodded quickly: "Yes."

"Go, Rocket!"

"Cuckoo!"

The rocket galloped wildly, deftly unlike a horse, and disappeared as a white shadow, leaving only the stunned soldiers behind.

At the blacksmith factory, Li Qi turned over and got off the rocket.

The blacksmiths who came around asked fearfully: "My lord, it, it doesn't bite, does it?"

"Don't worry," Li Qi said.

A younger blacksmith walked over and wanted to raise his hand to touch the rocket.

Rocket suddenly spread its wings and raised its front paws.

"Ah!" The little blacksmith was so frightened that he fell to the ground.

"Cuckoo!" Rocket cried happily.

Li Qi felt quite helpless: "Rocket, be honest!"

This guy is good at everything but a little mischievous, probably because he is almost one year old, like a child.

Yes, it was originally a child.

Rocket immediately folded his wings, stood up obediently, and just tilted his head to look at the little blacksmith curiously.

"I, I..." The little blacksmith got up from the ground, tried to get close to the rocket, and raised his hand again after finding that the rocket really wouldn't move.

The rocket's wings spread out again, and its front hooves raised.

"Ah!" The little blacksmith was frightened again and fell to the ground.

"Cuckoo!" Looking at the little blacksmith's distressed appearance, Rocket laughed humanely.

The blacksmith on the other side hurriedly pulled the little blacksmith up: "That's the lord's mount, how can you touch it casually!"

"I think it's very majestic," the little blacksmith whispered.

The rocket with its wings folded came over and touched him lightly, as if it was actively greeting him.

"Hello, can I touch you?" the little blacksmith asked.

Rocket nodded.

The little blacksmith raised his hand happily. He couldn't get Rocket's head, he could only touch Rocket's body.

"So strong, so powerful!" He sighed, "Even a lion can't beat you."

"Cuckoo!" Rocket raised his head proudly, as if to say that lions are nothing.

Anyone who flies in the sky, runs on the ground, or swims in the water is no match for Lao Tzu.

On the other side, several blacksmiths had already introduced the harness to Li Qi.

"My lord, where are the costumes?"

"Tools..."

Li Qi looked at Rocket who was holding the little blacksmith in his mouth, making the other party scream, and gave him a look. Rocket immediately put the little blacksmith down honestly.

"When the rocket is flying, it is impossible for the arrow to hurt it. The airflow on the surface of its body is enough to blow any arrow away, and the feathers of the rocket are stronger than steel."

"Wow wow wow!" the little blacksmith was still shouting.

"Rocket!"

"Cuckoo" Rocket put the little blacksmith down and pretended that he hadn't done anything just now.

The little blacksmith got up, scared and excited, and started to circle the rocket.

Li Qi asked, "Do you want to wear a costume?"

Adding a layer of protection is useful after all, but it also depends on the Rockets' own opinions.

"Goo?"

"It's the harness worn by those war horses, which can protect the body, but it's a little uncomfortable."

"Goo!"

"Prestige and handsome is for sure." Li Qi nodded very positively: "Then I'll ask someone to help you design a set."

Li Qi said to the blacksmiths, "Let's make a set of saddles first."

As for the equipment, he plans to let the extraordinary blacksmith Chu Na to do it. Chu Na's ability can melt the bones of the wyvern into the steel. The keel steel plate produced is stronger and lighter than ordinary steel, and the pattern is also beautiful, like Damascus steel pattern.

Leave the rocket here waiting to make the saddle.

Li Qi left the blacksmith workshop.

That afternoon, there were more saddles on Rocket's back, which made it more comfortable to sit on.

Li Qi went directly to the racecourse to prepare for the experiment.

Joel Jr. and the others stopped training and stood aside leading the horse.

Some people set up grass targets and obstacles.

"Has any of you ever seen your lord charging on horseback?"

"never seen it!"

"I have seen"

"My lord used to ride a horse with a strong mane, but rockets can fly."

"Even if a rocket doesn't fly, it's faster than a war horse."

The light cavalry were discussing in low voices, but there was a unified judgment that with Li Qi's strength coupled with the Eagle Rocket, it would be very terrifying!
Li Qi put on the armor and jumped on the saddle. The comfortable saddle and riding skills cooperated with each other, making it easier for Li Qi to display his superb riding skills.

The subordinate handed over the lance, and Li Qi nodded, holding the rein with his left hand and the lance with his right.

"Rocket!"

The reins shook lightly in his hand, Rocket got the signal from Li Qi and began to jog forward.

The reins shook again, and Rocket's belly was clamped between his legs. After giving it a further signal, Rocket began to run faster.

The angle of riding the gun below Li Qi.

At this time, the rocket had already fully charged. In the eyes of the soldiers watching, Li Qi, who was riding a hawk, turned into a white shadow, and rushed a very long distance in an instant.

Bang!
Bang bang bang! !

After the charge, the sound of the lance hitting the grass target came continuously, with very short intervals.

They hurriedly turned their heads to follow the figure of the rocket. The obstacles could not hinder the rocket at all, and it seemed to be a very simple and natural thing for it to cross the refusal horse.

When the rocket came to a stop, the air was not panting.

After all, it is a body structure that can fly in the sky, and the endurance of the eagle is also the first-class existence among animals, not to mention the rocket as a magical creature.

"I have to change the equipment too," Li Qi sighed.

The lance was too light and not long enough.

And not strong enough.

His own weapons can only be forged by the extraordinary blacksmith Chu Na, and the weapons made by ordinary blacksmiths are at most one-off weapons.

"This time I'll ask Hammer to help Rocket make the armor, and let her help me reforge the armor by the way, and I'll put on the armor as well." Li Qi planned in his mind: "There are also weapons."

Only the stunned onlookers were left behind.

Now that they were sure, Li Qi alone might be able to sweep a heavy cavalry team!

Li Qi nodded to Joel and the others, told them to continue training, and then rode away on a rocket...

The rocket spread its wings, and Betty's Alchemy Workshop, which usually took a long time to ride a horse, arrived in a flash.

When I arrived, I saw Chuanna sitting at the door looking at the sky boredly.

"Hammer, are you free?"

"Ah, my lord!" Chuu Na was startled and stood up abruptly.

She explained with some embarrassment: "Miss Betty asked me to stay outside. I don't have much work right now."

"That's right, I want you to do me a favor."

Li Qi jumped down, took the rocket to Chuna's side, and said, "Help the rocket build a suit, and I have prepared the specific shape design."

The design drawing of this equipment is not only as simple as protection, but also very handsome and fashionable, which has been approved by the Rockets for three consecutive nods.

The coquettish appearance can be imagined.

"Yes!" Chu Na was very happy to be able to strike again.

"Also, I need a weapon." Li Qi said, "I'm relatively strong, so you need to waste a lot of effort in designing the weapon. I need to be heavy enough and strong enough."

It is inevitable that the weapon will become larger if it is heavy.

And if the weapon is too big, the blade will inevitably break.

"How much do you want?" Hammer asked.

She is also very strong, coupled with the forging flame of extraordinary power, Hammer Na can forge iron far more than the blacksmith's workshop.

If it wasn't for the extraordinary blacksmith and she was the only one, Li Qi would like to replace the assembly line directly to create exquisite weapons and armor, but that's impossible.

"It's better to try." Li Qi couldn't explain clearly, he only knew that his own strength was a bit outrageous.

The method of testing is not difficult. Hammer Na took a two-handed sword embryo, and then brought a few iron ingots, and raised the hammer.

Flame burst out from the hammer head.

He hit the iron ingot with "kuang" and "kuang" a few times.

A few iron ingots were welded onto the sword embryo.

"My lord, try it."

"En." Li Qi took the "sword" and waved it twice.

The hand feel is actually very bad. Using this kind of weapon in real war is not even as good as using a hammer, but it is just to test the weight of the hand, but it can barely do it.

"How?" Hammer asked.

A two-handed sword weighs about 3 pounds, and a one-handed sword weighs only 1 pound.

And the iron ingots that Chu Na casually added had increased the weight of the two-handed sword to 20 pounds.

Ordinary people will get tired after walking for a while with such a heavy two-handed sword. If they use it for fighting and chopping, if they fail to hit anyone, they will be exhausted first.

"It's okay," Li Qi said, "but it's not heavy enough, and the weight should be increased by five times."

"100 pounds?" Chuanna seemed to hear an exaggerated weight.

She persuaded: "My lord, this is not convenient for you to fight, nor can you use your skills."

Some people can lift a few hundred pounds at their limit, but it is impossible for a weapon to exceed 3 pounds. The heavier weight is not because it cannot be lifted, but it is not suitable for combat.

As an extraordinary person, the lord can carry heavier weapons, but 20 pounds should be the most suitable level.

The weapon will be like a hammer in his hand, and no knight will dare to meet him head-on.

If it's 100 pounds... nobody wants to see him.

"That's right, 100 pounds." Li Qi nodded, and said with certainty, "I want this weapon to be more useful for charging, not for fighting with others."

It is heavy enough to be powerful when charged.

He felt that his strength had increased a lot recently. Although the remaining medicinal power in his body was not absorbed much, it was finally absorbing steadily.

Li Qi's extraordinary power is still of the flesh-and-blood type, and his demand for weapon weight will only increase in the future.

"I'll try." Hammer Na raised the hammer again.

After a while of knocking, she sent a simple forged and welded iron door panel to Li Qi.

Li Qi grabbed the door panel with both hands.

Wei Wei took advantage of it, not because he couldn't lift the weight, but because the sword's weight balance was very problematic.

The iron ingots were simply welded together resulting in a very long sword, as tall as a man.

But the hilt in Li Qi's hand was very short.

He tried waving a few times.

"Yes," Li Qi said, "add another 50 pounds."

Hammer is already numb. She had heard that the lord could defeat a hundred with one and she still didn't believe it. Now she really believed it. If it wasn't for her great strength, how could she be able to defeat a hundred.

Even if she has extraordinary power, she can't be an opponent of a hundred soldiers, and even if she encounters twenty or thirty soldiers, she will be defeated.

The weight of 150 pounds finally satisfied Li Qi, but the whole sword was a bit exaggerated, it was not used for fighting at all, even if it was charged immediately.

Li Qi said: "If the weight is good, the overall width of the sword is fine, but it shouldn't be so long... add another 50 pounds, let's make it 200 pounds."

"Yes……"

It wasn't until Li Qi walked into the alchemist's house that Chuana let out a long breath and whispered, "Isn't that just an iron gate?"

She has never forged this kind of weapon, and in order to meet the needs of the lord, it is also an opportunity to challenge.

Hammer Na is full of energy.

The sword must be balanced in weight, comfortable to use, and strong and not easy to break.

Difficult but full of challenges!
Li Qi walked into the workshop and immediately smelled a familiar smell.

kerosene!

Betty turned her head and said, "Everything you want is there."

Li Qi glanced at the jar and asked, "What about the rest?"

Crude oil is a good thing. It can not only fractionate kerosene, gasoline, diesel oil, lubricating oil, asphalt, etc., it can be said to be full of treasures.

But Li Qi didn't have fractionation skills, and being able to create "Fire Water" was entirely thanks to alchemy.

"I think the remaining things still have research value." Betty said, "You gave too little."

"I will send fire oil every month from now on."

"Uh-huh"

Betty didn't look up.

Li Qi went over to look and found that Betty was actually drawing the design of the breech-loading gun, which was relatively crude, but he couldn't offer any constructive suggestions.

The breech-loading gun was already the limit of his knowledge of firearms.

But he was very pleased.

The talents under him work hard enough, and their overall strength will be pushed forward.

He flew back to the castle on a rocket.

"Have someone go to the alchemy workshop," Li Qi arranged, "Bring back the fire water."

Fire water, which is kerosene, was quickly fetched.

Li Qi found a small cup and poured some kerosene, and asked someone to take a length of cotton thread.

Put in kerosene and light a fire.

The crudest kerosene lamp was lit.

"Although it is not as bright as a candle, it burns for a longer time and can adjust the brightness."

He pulled the wick out, and the flames immediately became brighter.

Big fire wastes oil, small fire dims light.

"Replace all the candles in the castle first." Li Qi said to the butler Simon: "From now on, the castle will be brightly lit at night, and there is no need to save light."

The steward nodded quickly.

"When the excavation volume of Huoyou Mine increases in the future, street lights can be erected in the territory, and it will be bright at night."

The things in hand are arranged, and the next thing to prepare is the birthday party.

Coincidentally seeing Akeke who came back, Li Qi asked, "What's the child's name?"

Akeke replied: "Akelimi."

"Uh...a good name." Actually, Li Qi didn't know what was good about it. Maybe this is the naming habit of the Insect Remnant Clan?Is the old family all named like this?

Add one more word to the name of your parents.

It is convenient to recognize the ancestor and return to the clan, and it is also convenient to know how many generations he has passed on.

"It's your gift from you, my lord, that gave us the life we ​​have now." Akeke said to Li Qi seriously: "Your protection made Akeli able to have children, otherwise we would just be slaves who couldn't eat."

The little servants and maids on the side also nodded.

"I am the lord," Li Qi said, "The lord's responsibility is to make everyone in the territory live a good life."

Li Qi suddenly seemed to understand the answer he had been struggling with before, why he was busy without a strong desire.

It turns out that it's not that I don't want anything, but that I want everything.

He wants to save the people he sees calling for help, wants money to satisfy any of his thoughts, like building equipment for rockets without counting consumption, wants rights to protect his property and freedom, wants power to ensure that he can do whatever he wants .

Just because he wants everything, he can't stop. A little problem in various aspects will make him feel pressure, and he can no longer "do whatever he wants", so he can only keep moving forward.

Those who love power sacrifice money, and those who love money sacrifice lust, but Li Qi is the type who can't give up anything.

He is a whimsical lord from another world, greedy and wanting everything.

Don't give up and want everything, so it will be very tiring.

"My lord" came over and interrupted Li Qi's thoughts: "The carriage from Greenwood Castle has arrived!"
