    Locke's situation after Hugo left was not very ideal, and it was not just about the economy. In addition to going out to hunt every day to earn some money, Locke also had a subsidy from the city lord's palace. The Dunwall family was relatively good at training soldiers.  Importantly, although the money is not much, it can still afford the meals Locke needs for daily training. After all, learning Dou Qi requires a strong body.  Entering the army is a pretty good way out for Locke.  The Dunwall family did not provide Locke with this subsidy solely for the purpose of cultivating talents. The bigger reason was to please the military. For the military, it is not easy to find soldiers who can learn fighting spirit.  Find a lot of them.  Of course, it is also possible that they want to establish Dunwall City's influence in the military.  Generally speaking, if there is a day when a powerful monster in the mine comes out and grabs some gold coins, the military will provide support somewhat faster. After all, Dou Qi practitioners are in the army.  The status is relatively high.  So Locke¡¯s daily life is completely guaranteed, but in what way is Locke no better than before after Hugo left?  "Youth!" Locke sighed and touched his pocket. The day before yesterday, he had sold all the finished products in Hugo's shop. Yesterday, he also sold all the remaining things in Hugo's shop, zero.  In the end, Mr. Zero only got one gold coin, which was more than 20 times lower than Hugo's profit from selling.  Locke happily spent this gold coin this morning. Half of it was melted and used to make a ring. The remaining half was naturally regarded as the cost of the work and was accepted unceremoniously by the blacksmith. As a result, the ring was destroyed in a few minutes.  It was finished, and "Rock II & Winnie" was still crookedly engraved on the inner ring of the ring.  Locke was instantly unhappy. If Hugo was still here, would he have wasted half the gold coin?  At any rate, your craftsmanship should be more impressive!  Locke raised the hammer on one side and smashed it on the anvil, causing sparks to fly.  The blacksmith was instantly frightened. This cannot be blamed on the blacksmith. The blacksmith has lost a lot of gold coins to Hugo since he was sensible. For some reason, he would buy his new invention as soon as he was fooled by Hugo.  , although it was later proved that these inventions are indeed useful, but in terms of price they are really too expensive.  So today, when the blacksmith saw this strong young man who had been following Hugo making things, he unconsciously wanted to trick him.  In fact, he only earned back half a gold coin, which was a bit insignificant compared to what Hugo had taken from him in the past few years.  But this was Locke who didn't have much spare money, so Locke went berserk in an instant.  "The first rule of chivalry! When you see something unfair, help him!" This is Locke's latest way of showing off after Hugo left. Although it was used on himself for the first time, this does not hinder  Locke acted for heaven.  Looking at this posture, the blacksmith suddenly panicked: "This young man is serious" After making such an intention, the blacksmith suddenly felt a little funny, probably recalling his youth.  Facing the hammer in Locke's hand, he smiled calmly: "Want to know how to become a real knight?" "How?" Although Locke was very angry, after hearing the keyword "knight", Locke decided to listen to what the old man had to say.  Want to say something.  "Uh-huh" A dazzling sword light flashed in front of Locke's eyes. Locke squinted his eyes and saw that the old blacksmith had pulled out an exquisite long sword from nowhere. The silver-white sword body glowed slightly.  The blue light, the exquisite decoration of the hilt and guard are the only ones Locke has ever seen in his life It seems to be made of gold "Oh" Locke sighed with satisfaction: "What is the name of this sword?" "Hmph  The old blacksmith put the sword on the table in a pretentious manner, crossed his shoulders and smiled mysteriously: "This is the legendary sword of victory, the legendary sword of the king! The legendary sword of elves, the legendary broken steel!"  The sword" The old blacksmith told a bunch of legends like a rhyme. Locke didn't listen too carefully. He just looked at the sword blankly. It was very powerful anyway. It was simply a man who was ready to save the world.  A must-have weapon for a knight!  "The important task of saving the world is left to you!" The old blacksmith forcefully put the "holy sword" in Locke's hand.  "How much?" Locke's eyes twitched and he asked with an ugly expression.  "What kind of words are these!" The old blacksmith smiled proudly: "I gave it to you for nothing This sword is really a waste in my hands. Only in your hands can it realize its due value! Come on, give it to me again.  You have a scabbard!" Seeing Locke leaving happily, the old blacksmith breathed a sigh of relief. After all, his life was not in vain. Those stupid things that made his father angry to death actually saved him today.  One life, ???I have no doubt that that stupid boy Locke will hit him with a hammerbecause he has done this kind of thing before.  I miss my youthful days!  Back then, with these stupid ideas about knights and the courage I didn't know where to come from, I beheaded the son of a squire who had committed a crime but got away with it. In the end, it turned out that my father had been beheaded for committing the crime. To this day,  He didn't want to talk about this kind of thing anymore.  But every time I see this "Holy Sword" that I forged when I was just learning blacksmithing and slashed the son of a squire with my hands, I can't help but think of the stupid things I did in the past, but I don't want to throw it away. I will throw it away today.  When it was delivered to Locke, he was relieved.  "Love!" Locke touched the gold ring in his hand, "Brave!" Locke took out the long sword from his back and swung it wildly, "Haha! This is youth!" Naturally, Locke found his dear again.  Miss Winnie once again knelt down on one knee and said affectionately: "Winnie, be my girlfriend!" But Winnie was a little bored at the moment. In fact, she still had a good impression of Locke at the beginning, but it was a pity that she was sensible.  Too early, money is the most important thing.  So at this moment Winnie just wants to solve this problem quickly. Even if he will be in pain, she will be in pain, but in this way it is good for both parties "Locke, if you can mine a rare stone deep in the mine,  If it's another energy block" Winnie bit her lip as if she had bitten off the last bit of hesitation in her heart: "If that's the case, I will agree to be your girlfriend" "Really! Really!  "Seeing Locke so excited, Winnie didn't know whether her decision was right or wrong. Locke might die if she did this She originally just hoped that he would retreat in spite of the difficulties "Forget it let him suffer.  No matter how good the head is, Locke is not that stupid. He will always retreat when faced with danger" You comforted yourself.  "You accept this ring first." Locke said solemnly.  "Well" Winnie took the slightly rough-made ring, with mixed feelings in her heart "Lovebraveryeven legends are waving to me nowhehehehe" Gray touched the back  The hilt of the "Holy Sword" walked proudly towards the city lord's palace. After following Hugo for so long, he still knew how to make use of existing resources.  For Locke, Dunwall City's most promising young man to join the army and perhaps learn fighting spirit, the Dunwall family still values ????more. They sent someone to receive Locke and asked him what he wanted, but Locke insisted on meeting Lord Richard and said that he was  There are important things.  It happened that Lord Richard was free, and Locke got his wish and talked about major life events with Lord Richard.  "Dear Lord City Lord, I plan to set off to practice in the abandoned mines in the near future." Locke said seriously.  "The mine is very dangerous and full of powerful monsters. You will die if you are not careful. Are you serious?" Richard frowned. Although there have always been people who practice in the mine, such people often also  He has become extremely powerful, but if Locke dies, all the investment in him in the past few years will be in vain, but if Locke succeeds in training then the rewards will be huge.  "Don't worry, Lord City Lord, I don't want to die myself. I will pay attention to avoid the invincible monsters." Locke said.  "Okay Steward, give him the 20 gold coins and let him buy some equipment." Richard patted Locke on the shoulder and said.  So Locke II¡¯s great adventure began magnificently with this shot.  After 20 gold coins turned into a not-so-good chainmail and a month's worth of supplies, Locke walked out of the city gate and entered the mountains and forests he was familiar with.  Using the "Holy Sword" in his hand, he chased and successfully killed a rabbit for lunch. Although he could have easily killed it with a crossbow However, this was a very important blood sacrifice for the "Holy Sword"!  Finally, near dusk, Locke entered an abandoned mine. It was a bit cold. He felt a little damp even with the torch on, and the chain armor on his body seemed a bit heavier.  Surprisingly, Locke found that there were not as many monsters in the mine as he expected "Maybe I haven't gone deep enough" Locke said to himself, patted his chest and hypnotized himself, and then Locke asked the mine.  Fast forward to the bottom of the hole.  Only a small part of the mines are man-made. Only in this kind of mines can people mine without worries. For ordinary mines, you will find that some unnatural caves will appear after you dig halfway.  , usually the miners will retreat at this time, because if they dig further, a large number of monsters will appear. Unless a very precious mineral is detected, people will not ask the army to clean the mine, but there is  There are usually powerful monsters living deep in the mines where precious minerals are valued, and sometimes even the army will be wiped out.    And what appeared in front of Locke at this moment was an army-standard heavy sword
