Chapter 4 Before the War



It is said that the golden dragon had just entered adolescence at that time, and its size and combat power were far from its strongest. It was possible that it was attacked and injured by the phantom beast when it was not paying attention.

But if you say that we can't defeat it, that is definitely impossible. If there really is a creature in the forest that even the golden dragon can't defeat, then the Grand Duke would naturally not have organized so many pioneering wars.

After traveling quickly, the two arrived at Moonlight City.

Moonlight City lives up to its name. The entire city wall is made of marble. It is said that soldiers patrolling at night do not need torches and can see most things by moonlight alone.

After showing their family crest, the two men rode into the city and headed straight for the blacksmith shop.

Perhaps the news of the war had spread, and the shelves outside the blacksmith shop were filled with customers who came to buy weapons and equipment.

These people are generally the unfavored second sons of various families or the eldest sons of wealthy businessmen. After learning the news of the war, they also tried their best to arm themselves to ensure that they can gain enough benefits in the next war.

Earl Stephen was also happy about this. Being able to earn a considerable amount of income before the war would also give him more confidence in the subsequent war.

Like these people, Krober stood in front of the shelf and chose a suitable knight sword as his weapon.

He soon found the weapon he liked on the shelf.

It was a one-handed knight sword.

The total length is about 110 cm. It is an extended knight's sword specially used for horse combat. The counterweight ball-shaped handle is made of brass and is engraved with some complex patterns.

The hilt is about 20 cm long and is made of walnut wood.

Krober took it down and tried it. The hilt was well polished and very convenient to hold with one hand. The 20 cm length also allowed him to hold it with both hands in battle, which made him very satisfied.

Holding the sword in his hand, Krober looked at the other weapons sold in the store.

After careful selection, Krober bought a kite-shaped shield, a knight's lance and five javelins as his weapons.

In exchange, Krober had less than 20 gold coins left out of the 124 gold coins, which made his plan to buy a warhorse and leather armor fail.

"For leather armor, you can provide the monster hides and have them sewn by someone. Then, let's go buy a warhorse."

The most precious things in this world are metals, followed by war horses and food.

The knight's sword cost Krober nearly ninety gold coins, while the kite-shaped shield, lance and javelin only cost twenty gold coins in total, which shows how precious the metal is.

The same goes for war horses. An ordinary old horse is very cheap, only four or five gold coins. The one he is riding now is an old old horse.

But this kind of poor horse is timid and lacks endurance, and cannot carry a knight to the battlefield, so Krober must buy a strong warhorse.

The knight's sword was slung at his waist, the shield was carried on his back, and the javelin and lance were hung on his horse.

Kroeber headed towards the stables of the Moonlight Mushroom family castle.

All shops in Moonlight City that sell military items such as weapons and war horses are opened by the Moonlight Mushroom family.

The place for selling war horses was directly located next to the stables outside the castle. The Earl put some war horses eliminated by the Knights or some surplus ordinary war horses in the store for sale.

This time, Krober and the other two planned to buy a warhorse retired from the Knights Templar.

These war horses are usually placed in the stables for sale after the knights died and their horses were left unattended.

Therefore, they generally do not have any major problems with their physical and mental health, and can definitely be a great help to the knights on the battlefield.

Krober has very high requirements for his warhorse, after all, it is his second life.

If the money was not enough this time, he even planned to sell the nag he was riding or borrow some gold coins from the old knight to make up the money.

"Welcome, distinguished member of the Oatmeal family, Golden Rose's beloved, Mr. Kropper Oatmeal."

As soon as he walked into the castle gate, Krober met one of his acquaintances in the Moonlight Mushroom family.
