Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong-Chapter 853 - 547: The Untarnished Emblem _2

Chapter 853: Chapter 547: The Untarnished Emblem _2

“Lord is absolutely right!”

Bowing slightly towards Leo Ray, Mason Banks took a step forward, solemnly saying, “Ancestor, though a thousand years have passed and the Smith Family is no longer as glorious as it once was, the family’s anvil emblem has never been tarnished and remains as bright as during your time!”

At this moment, Mason’s eyes gleamed with a touch of crystal clarity as he continued, “For a thousand years, your stories of developing and strengthening the Smith Family, visiting various races, and tirelessly cultivating forging skills have been passed down through generations in the family, accompanying every young boy and girl of the Smith Family to sleep.”

“And the reason why the descendants of the Smith Family have never succumbed to fate and kept the family emblem untarnished in any situation is because of your bravery and perseverance! It’s because the Smith Family once had a Tier 5 Powerhouse with overwhelming strength!”

After taking a deep breath, Mason continued, “Hence, the traces of your existence have never been erased but have accompanied the growth of every descendant of the Smith Family and are the goals that every Smith Family blacksmith strives for!”

Upon hearing this, old Shane kept silent for a while before slowly saying, “So it turns out… ”

...

“That’s right, if it weren’t for your stories and family motto as our faith, I’m afraid the Smith Family would have already disappeared in the vast river of history like the Loren Kingdom,” Mason said with an expression full of reverence, nodding in agreement.

“Mr. Shane, it seems that although time can change the world, it hasn’t erased your traces,” said Leo Ray as he looked at the serious, robust old man in front of him.

“Since you were once able to create the Smith Family into a top-tier family, you should be able to do it again, right? Isn’t this the meaning of your new beginning?”

“…Young man, you make sense. I seem to be interested in the world a thousand years later,” Old Shane took a deep breath and said solemnly, “If you can help me remove the petrification magic on me, I will repay your kindness with my life!”

After he finished speaking, old Shane wore a serious expression and performed a deep bow towards Leo Ray with one hand on his chest.

“Mr. Shane, there’s no need for such a gesture, I believe it won’t be long before you are reborn,” Leo Ray replied solemnly, nodding his head, “This is my promise to you.”

“Ha ha, I look forward to that day!”

With a hearty laugh, the atmosphere in the ancient and somewhat oppressive chamber immediately lightened up.

“By the way, although my storage ring can no longer be used, there is a set of spare weapons and armor hidden under the blue stone platform where my body sits.”

Immediately, as if remembering something, old Shane nodded to Mason and said, “I believe these items will be of great help to you, who have also studied the secret martial arts of the Smith Family.”

“Great-grandson thanks the ancestor!”

At these words, Mason’s old eyes brightened up, and an ecstatic expression appeared on his aged face.

Under Leo Ray’s command,

With Taylor rolling up his sleeves, the petrified statue and the heavy blue stone platform below it were easily moved aside.

A secret compartment about half a meter wide appeared.

Next, a ripple of energy emanated from old Shane’s energy body, accompanied by the muffled sound of stone friction, the secret compartment slowly opened.

Then, neatly stacked cloth armor and a black finger tiger appeared before everyone’s eyes.

Upon closer inspection, both items radiated an impressive energy glow and shone brilliantly in the secret compartment.

However, there was still quite a gap between them and the shimmering brilliance of Tier 5 Equipment.

“Is that so?”

Seeing this, old Shane couldn’t help but sigh softly.

Shaking his head helplessly, he said, “Although these two pieces of equipment cannot be considered top-notch, they were both at Tier 5 level. It seems that time has also left a heavy imprint on them in the absence of maintenance…”

But before old Shane could finish his sentence,

Leo Ray, who crouched beside the secret compartment, flicked his hand, and the two slightly dim equipment pieces suddenly became dazzling.

There was no need to say more; Leo Ray had encountered this situation many times before and quickly resolved it with the Golden Finger.

“Is this…?! It has returned to Tier 5 directly without any repairs?!”

Noticing this scene, old Shane’s eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets, and he was rendered speechless.

Meanwhile, Leo Ray only gave a faint smile and started by opening the attributes column of the weapon.

[Name: Roar of the Lion and Tiger]

[Grade: Tier 5• Extraordinary (Silver)]

[Attack Strength: ★★★★★]

[Additional Effect 1: Lion Devour「Physical Penetration increased by 60%」]

[Additional Effect 2: Tiger Agility「Movement increased by 30%」]

[Note: This Finger Tiger was forged by Master Forger Shane Smith, who combined the forging techniques of Dwarf Clan and Human various countries at that time to create it.

Although it is a prototype, Shane still managed to raise the Finger Tiger to Tier 5 level, far surpassing most weapons with his exquisite forging skills and experience.]

“With this remarkable weapon, Mason Banks’ strength will undoubtedly rise to a new level!”

Gazing at the pure black Finger Tiger in front of him, which was both colorful and delicately crafted, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction and then opened the attributes column of the armor.

[Name: Dark Night Warrior Cloth Armor]

[Grade: Tier 5• Extraordinary (Silver)]

[Defense Strength: ★★★]

[Additional Effect: Energy Reduction (Night)• Absolute「Significantly reduces the user’s power consumption」]

[Note: This is a cloth armor from the Dark Elf Race, stitched with a special secret technique of the Dark Elf Race, which allows the wearer to reduce their energy consumption during nighttime combat.]

“Not bad, this undoubtedly increases Mason Banks’ endurance in nighttime combat!”

After closing the attribute column of the cloth armor, Leo Ray nodded slightly, stood up in front of the hidden compartment and signaled Mason Banks to come forward eagerly, who then collected all the Tier 5 equipment into his Storage Ring.

“Your Excellency is indeed no ordinary person, this miraculous power is nothing short of a miracle.”

On the other side, old Shane finally regained his composure and marveled at Leo Ray: “To be honest, I was initially skeptical of Your Excellency’s promise, but now, I have completely lost such doubts.”

“It’s just a minor trick and not worth mentioning.”

With a slight smile, Leo Ray continued chatting with the other party.

In the following conversation, Leo Ray found out through questions and understanding:

It turned out that the weapons in the sword tomb near the forging area were left behind by the dead soldiers of the royal guards in the Royal Capital after they were trapped and killed by enemy elites spying inside.

Originally, these sharp swords were meant to be repaired, but old Shane insisted on keeping them.

For one, he wanted to remind the other blacksmiths and the soldiers guarding this place to never slack off; and on the other hand, he wanted to commemorate these brave royal guards.

“I see.”

Upon hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly and then asked another question that had long been on his mind: “Mr. Shane, as far as I know, the enemy at the time did not find the secret treasure of the Loren Royal Family. Do you know the exact location of the treasure?”

“…Since the Loren Kingdom has been destroyed, I might as well tell Your Excellency this secret.”

After pondering for a moment, old Shane said solemnly: “Your Excellency, aside from the Loren Royal Family at that time, I was one of the few loyal servants who were fortunate enough to know the location of the treasure!”

“Oh? Please tell.”

Curiosity was even more evident on Leo Ray’s face as he eagerly pressed for more information.

“The situation at that time was like this…”

On the other side, old Shane’s eyes clouded over as he was once again immersed in his memories.
