CHAPTER 278: CHAPTER 173: SCALE ARMOR WITH CHAIN LINER (HAPPY NEW YEAR)

Rose bent slightly, the plate armor on his body emitting a faint metallic clatter: "Yes, master!"

Lynn nodded and took two steps back.

Rose turned his body, looking at the two hundred fully armed soldiers in front of him.

He spoke in a deep voice: "Everyone, return to the city walls immediately!"

Uniform and powerful shouts erupted from beneath the metal masks.

"Yes!"

After bidding farewell, Rose led the plate armor soldiers away gradually.

With every step, there was a heavy sound of metal colliding with the ground.

Orderly and majestic.

Lynn couldn’t help but marvel that merely two hundred soldiers in full plate armor generated such a presence.

What would it be like with thousands?

Lynn’s heart filled with anticipation.

Finally, as they disappeared around the corner of the blacksmith workshop, Lynn satisfactorily withdrew his gaze.

The first batch of standard plate armor had already been completed and was being worn by the soldiers.

This batch of soldiers, equipped with standard plate armor and winged spears, were the strongest force in the entire territory!

Stepping into the blacksmith workshop, Lynn surveyed the blacksmith apprentices who were busy crafting plate armor components.

Lynn noticed that these blacksmith apprentices’ production speed had indeed noticeably increased.

This is the advantage of division of labor.

Under current conditions and technology, division of labor is extremely applicable to any position.

Instructing Ehrelo to speed up the production of standard plate armor, Lynn walked out of the blacksmith workshop.

About to leave.

From behind came Flint’s voice.

"Lord, please wait a moment!"

Lynn turned around to see Flint coming up with small steps.

Reaching Lynn, Flint spoke calmly: "Lord, the armor I promised you is already forged."

"Would you like to try it on?"

Hearing Flint’s words, Lynn’s eyebrows slightly rose.

"So quickly?"

Flint had crafted the one-handed sword at his waist just days ago.

Flint nodded calmly, "It’s just an ordinary piece of armor."

"No enchantment or array inscription needed, naturally it doesn’t take much effort."

Lynn glanced, noticing that Flint was clearly holding a breath.

A demeanor of a master blacksmith feigning profoundness.

Lynn nodded and said, "Let’s go take a look."

Flint responded and jogged ahead.

With his short legs needing to catch up with Lynn’s pace and lead the way, Flint could only jog.

Under the respectful gaze of the apprentices in the blacksmith workshop, Lynn walked inside.

Passing through the blacksmith workshop, they arrived at the product storage area at the back.

Flint pushed open the double wooden doors, revealing a full set of armor hanging on a human-shaped wood rack in Lynn’s view.

Seeing the color and style of this armor, Lynn’s eyes brightened involuntarily.

At a glance, the armor was all black.

Unlike the standard plate armor made using a sand box technique, Flint’s forged plate armor had contours and a texture of layered patterns.

It was full of a metallic hard texture, yet without any sense of clumsiness.

Under the gauntlets, shoulder guards, and breastplate, there were touches of golden filigree!

Like stars in the darkness or a galaxy in the universe...

What caught Lynn’s eye was the sharply vertical full face helmet!

Alongside the cloak...

Lynn felt that no man could resist the visual impact of this armor!

Lynn felt, this was true armor!

A thought brought up the textual panel of this armor in his eyes.

[Fine Lightweight Scale Armor with Chain Liner]: Forged by Dwarven Master Blacksmith Flint, combining defense and flexibility, with a beautiful appearance, suitable for combat and defense, etc.

Indeed.

Anything forged by Flint, whether weapons or armor, was of fine level!

Flint’s ability was indeed extraordinary.

This was only armor and weapons forged from ordinary quality iron.

If magical ores could be found in the future and enhancements added...

Trading so much fine salt for Flint through Zod was definitely worth it.

The ability to forge alone was enough to earn respect!

Suppressing the ripple in his heart, Lynn walked into the storage room and with Flint’s assistance, began to don the lightweight scale armor with chain liner.

Starting with the boots, then to the greaves, thigh guards...

Then to the breastplate, back armor, bracers, shoulder guards...

Finally, there was Lynn holding the helmet in his hands!

Upon donning the helmet, darkness enveloped Lynn’s vision.

After a brief adjustment, his sight through the long rhombus openings in the mask emerged.

To prevent arrows from piercing through, the long rhombic openings were small.

But this did not affect Lynn’s vision.

For breathing convenience, operational openings were also at the nasal area of the mask.

Soon after, Lynn began to walk around.

Due to it being lightweight scale armor with a chain liner, Lynn didn’t feel the weight of standard plate armor.

The entire set weighed about thirty pounds.

Initially, he could somewhat sense the weight.

However, once accustomed to wearing it, the sense of weight would completely disappear.
