Chapter 25 White Feather Ebony Arrow

Leaving the civilian residential area, from Shiqiao Street to the west and then north, is the main road connecting the gate of Istaron and the inner city. This is the most prosperous commercial center in Istaron.The stores on this street can be said to be the essence of Eastalen's business. Although the prices are a bit higher, the quality of their products is definitely the best standard in the city.

Al wanted to find a weapons store and buy an ax, which was actually the first thing he wanted to buy when he came to town.

For powerful weapons, Mr. Powell's workshop has a wide variety of enchanted weapons.But those gleaming luxury goods will undoubtedly be a sky-high price for El, and they may not necessarily be in hand.

Accustomed to using an arm-length logging ax, El still wanted to find one with a similar shape and a heavier feel.It is best made of forged steel. This kind of ax has good corrosion resistance. Whether it is chopping bushes and vines or killing prey, it will not be worn by tree sap or blood.In addition to being durable and durable, it is unpretentious and low-key in style.

In addition, what is more important to a hunter is the arrow. In the deep mountains and old forests, hunters can only make crude wooden arrows with bone-ground arrows.This kind of arrow can hardly penetrate the fur of some large animals, let alone those ferocious beasts with scales and armor.

To be honest, El's unique skill of piercing Yang with one hundred steps was also forced out by life.

As early as when he entered the city, El noticed that military white-feathered ebony arrows could be purchased in the market in Istaren!

The forests around Istaren abound in Ebony, a fine wood well suited for crafting arrow shafts and other weapon components.Combined with the feathers of a white gull and a three-edged iron arrowhead, the white-feathered ebony arrow is world-renowned for its stability and precision.It is not the type of arrow with the most lethality, but its practicality is full of praise from all users.

The White Lion Legion has been here for hundreds of years, with a large number of weapon craftsmen handed down from generation to generation and a complete logistics and military industry system.Every year, more than [-] high-quality white-feathered ebony arrows are produced, and [-]% of them are sent to the capital as a specialty of Istaren, and then replenished to the elite legions across the kingdom.

Time is the guarantee of quality, but at the same time, after hundreds of years of inheritance, the production techniques of this kind of arrows have already entered the folk.Almost every weapon shop in Istaron has its own imitation white-feathered ebony arrows, and those large shops with backgrounds may even sell real military products that flowed out through certain channels.Although the price may be on the high side, it is definitely worth the money.

El once had a dream, that when he developed himself, he must use the arrows that ordinary hunters only dream of.Instead of hunting every day, he just stood outside the city and shot birds every day.

There was a hustle and bustle of people on the central street, and the four-wheeled carriages dedicated to the nobles passed by the caravan's mules and horses. It was crowded but not lacking in order.This is a militarized city, and there is a natural efficiency in the bones of the nobles and the poor. You can see the turbulent flow of people on both sides of the street, but there are very few pushing and noisy things happening.Even the streets and pavements that pass by countless livestock every day are extraordinarily clean and tidy.

El walked the streets unhurriedly, squinting his eyes to observe the brightest side of the city.He remembered that Tika liked apples very much, so he bought a bag at a roadside store. The price was quite expensive, but it was not unacceptable.The fruit seller is very enthusiastic and has a happy smile.

The old man said that as long as you look carefully at the natural smiles on the faces of the common people in a city, you can see how capable the lord of the city is.It seems that the current owner of the White Lion family seems to be a wise lord... El thought to himself.

Not long after walking, El found his target on the street corner ahead.

This is a big business that looks very imposing. Compared with this, Mr. Jupiter's business is like a little quail next to an eagle.Five facades lined up, almost occupying the entire corner of the street.At a glance, rows of armor and weapons are neatly placed on the shelves, polished and shiny.There are all kinds of swords, guns, swords and halberds, and the variety of styles is so dizzying.

Just these guys outside are enough to arm a militia group. It really deserves to be a city developed from a military fortress. Even the weapon shop is so powerful and domineering.

El groaned in his heart, and stepped into the shop.As he expected, behind a row of longbows, there were several barrels of black long arrows with white tails.

"Sir, what can I do for you?"

The shop clerk standing aside came over. When he noticed El's age and clothes, he couldn't help showing some disappointment on his face, but he didn't show it on his mouth. It was obvious that he had received good training.

"I heard that your white-feathered ebony arrows are of good quality?" El asked tentatively.

"Then you have found the right place." The young man's eyes lit up, and his face immediately showed hospitality: "The ancestor of the weapon foundry in our firm is a master craftsman exclusive to the Legion. These white-feathered ebony arrows are made according to the real army It is made according to the standard of supplies. Like this kind of arrow of the highest standard, you can’t find a second one in the entire Istaron market.”

"The highest standard?" El drew out an arrow suspiciously, and took a closer look.

Although he hesitated, but with his intuition as a big hunter, as soon as he picked it up, he believed most of the buddy's introduction in his heart.This white-feathered ebony arrow is full of balanced and streamlined beauty. El has never touched such a fine arrow in his life.His heart was beating unsatisfactorily, and he couldn't wait to try the feeling of shooting this kind of arrow.

Barely suppressing his excitement, El put down the arrow calmly and asked, "This is the best? I heard..."

"Of course, you know that when making arrows in batches, the craftsmen are in different states, and it is impossible to guarantee that the quality of all the finished products is exactly the same, and occasionally there will be some excellent products." The boy smiled knowingly, with a look on his face. You know the expression. "Of course, the production of that kind of arrows is not much, so the price...you can understand."

The output is not high, ah, this is obviously selling military supplies in a grandiose manner, right?It's just that it was expressly prohibited, so I changed it to another way of saying it.

If you want to buy it, of course you should buy the best one. El touched his wallet, feeling a little conflicted.This is because when he first entered the city, he wouldn't even blink his brows.But now, after all, he is still a little tight, so he coughed, narrowed his eyes and asked in a low voice: "Is there any discount?"

Coming out of the weapon shop, El's heart was bleeding.Two barrels of genuine military white-feathered ebony arrows, worth three gold coins.This is equivalent to the purchase price of a high-quality leather in a small town, or a good-quality iron sword, or more simply, it can be said to be half a year's salary for an ordinary militiaman.

That's not how money is spent!El scolded himself an idiot in his heart. Arrows were consumables, and even if they could be taken back, there would be wear and tear problems.No one is a good archer who can pierce Yang with a hundred steps every time. Can the cost of shooting these two arrows really be recovered?He had no hope of that.

Of course, the cost of real military supplies cannot be so high, and at most it will not exceed one-tenth of this price. Otherwise, after a round of siege, the White Lion family will have to collectively sell their pants.But this price cannot be negotiated. First of all, people smuggle this kind of contraband for profiteering, and most of the customers who can afford to buy this kind of arrows are noble guards or lone rangers. They don't care about such a small amount of money.

In fact, El's net worth shouldn't be so concerned at first, but the boy just came to the big city after all. Although he was thinking about how to spend money to show off, he still felt heartache when it came time to take out gold coins.

What balances his mind a little is that the quality of ordinary weapons here is also very good, and the price is quite reasonable.There was a one-handed ax he liked, with a simple shape, smooth lines, and made of forged steel. It was much heavier than ordinary axes, but it was just right for El.Because there are no high-grade minerals mixed in, the price is also very cheap, and it comes with two granite whetstones for less than fifteen gold coins.

This is a real murder weapon, and the lethality is quite terrifying when it is swung round.El is very satisfied, as long as the dragon skin equipment is produced, he will really change his whole body from shot to shot this time.

With two barrels of arrows on his back and the ax hidden behind his back, El suddenly felt a little high-spirited. Now he was eager to get the weapons and equipment made by Master Powell for himself, and ran around in the forest.Show off to those old opponents who have bullied you.

He weighed his wallet, and decided to buy another piece of jewelry for Tika.It doesn't need to be too expensive, but it is a thought.Thinking that I have already got the other girl to bed, but I haven't given her a token. If this little girl is in the village, she will be laughed at by those gossiping women as a nympho.

Al hummed a ditty and picked out a silver bracelet from the stall.You can tell by the color that the quality is not high, but the style is very nice.Picking up the bracelet, Tika's slender and fair wrist appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but smile on his face.

"Little brother, did you buy it for the girl you like?" The stall owner looked at El's expression with vicious eyes, nodded and said, "Look at you, you must have taken advantage of the girl. Let me tell you, You can’t live without but being a man, and if you catch a good girl, you have to pamper her well.”

"Yes, yes." El nodded with a smirk.

"If you want to talk about this girl's mind, I can't be more clear." The boss slapped his thigh: "Don't believe me, how many years have I been here, and how many couples have I met..."

The thoughtful El was dazed, and when he came back to his senses, he couldn't find the stall, but he had a beautifully packaged jewelry box that looked expensive.
