The mysterious journey begins with becoming a pirate

You can feel the excitement in the store even through the huge glass window.

The weapon shop in Damia, which is usually deserted, has now become a popular store.

Alok observed the attire of the customers in the store. Most of them are quite decent and have perfect manners. They are from wealthy families.

Most of them are accompanied by a young man to choose something.

Combined with the recent recruitment advertisements, Alok quickly understood what was going on.

The nobles hope to gain some benefits in this way.

Not only the right of inheritance, but also the improvement of status.

Their mothers seem to be more anxious about this matter.

If they can get some military merits and get some medals, their status in the family will rise sharply.

If the family is not big, maybe they can even bring the whole family to gain "glory".

So, the profession of knight should like war the most. No wonder the god before the knight is called the god of war.

Looking around, most of these noble children are not knights. They are either "Muggles" or extraordinary people such as artists and psychologists.

That's right, like these noble children, they have never fought in a war, I'm afraid they haven't even fought in a fight. How can they become a knight who needs hard training?

In order to ensure that the head of the family is not corrupted, some nobles require that the head of the family and the heir to the hereditary title must be a "Muggle".

Even if not, wouldn't it be good to be an artist or a psychologist and eat and drink?

However, in Alok's opinion, if such a person is allowed to go to the battlefield, it is impossible for him to lead troops to fight. I really don't know what the fate of the Hutt Empire is.

But we can't have too bad expectations, Kebli may not be much better.

"Birke."

Florian's loud voice suddenly appeared behind Alok, scaring him.

Fortunately, Florian is not stupid and didn't call Jack directly.

"Oh, you came so quickly. Florian." Alok stroked his chest and said.

"What? What action is there today?" Florian asked.

Alok pointed to the store of Imperial Crown and said casually:

"I'll customize some equipment for you. You'll need it in the future."

"Hmm~~Can the equipment here really be used?" Florian looked quite doubtful.

"Who cares? As long as it's gorgeous and impressive, it's enough. We just want the effect. We also need to modify it." Alok said with a smile.

"Stop talking and follow me later. Just listen to me."

"Hmm~~~Okay, Bilke." Florian scratched his head and replied.

Alok nodded and asked Florian to follow him, while he walked into the store of Imperial Crown.

"Sir, which one do you like?" The waiter's words brought Alok back to his senses.

He nodded politely, then looked at the various armors and swords in the store and said:

"Ah~~I don't know much about these, can you introduce them to me?"

He acted like a nobleman who had no knowledge of this, just like the nobles in the store.

The waiter bowed slightly, then straightened his back and said confidently:

"Of course. My pleasure. May I ask your name, sir?"

"Bilke, Lord Bilke." Alok introduced himself with a smile.

He knew that the waiter was trying to treat people differently. If he were a commoner, not a noble, he might not even be entertained. But if he were a noble, he would definitely be as respectful as a dog.

When introducing themselves to others, nobles often say that they are lords except for the duke for their own dignity or implicitness and modesty.

This is also the etiquette of the nobles.

Low-level nobles can retain their dignity, while high-level nobles can express their modesty.

Alok is trying to conceal his identity.

"It turns out to be Lord Bilke. Please follow me." The waiter had a standard smile on his face, as if he had received strict training.

He glanced at the giant Florian beside Alok, but did not express any opinion.

Then he walked down half a step in front of Alok, focusing on Alok and talking to him:

"It seems that the Lord is also going to the battlefield. I wonder what kind of equipment the Lord wants to make for himself?"

Alok suddenly realized that going to the battlefield was a good excuse. His eyes turned and he said with a smile:

"Crush the scum of Kebli. I hope their bones and dregs will not pollute the List Plain. But this time I am looking for a suitable set of equipment for my bodyguard. I am just a civilian."

"Your Excellency, you are so straightforward." The waiter said, looking at Florian behind Alok and sighed:

"Sir, your bodyguard is really tall and mighty. He will definitely protect your safety."

"So I wonder if there is any suitable one in the store?" Alok asked with a smile.

"Of course. Even if there is none, we also provide customized services." The waiter seemed confident.

Moreover, since it is purchased for the bodyguard, it must have some practicality. The waiter knew everything. So he stretched out his hand towards the wall, pointed at a giant sword and said:

"Made of thousand-hammered fine steel, a masterpiece of the store. Inlaid with pure gold ornaments, it is practical and beautiful. No enchantment, not yet sharpened. How is it?"

"Hmm~~Florian, what do you think?" Alok touched his chin and asked Florian behind him.

"Not bad. But I already have a greatsword." Florian said, with his hands on his chest.

"It's time to upgrade." Alok said with a smile.

He turned to the waiter and asked, "Not bad. How much?"

"Only 520 gold coins." The waiter said a price that made Alok dumbfounded without blushing or panting.

520 gold coins? ? Equivalent to 520,000? ?

Only this greatsword? ?

I still have to buy armor?

But Alok was calm and looked at the waiter, looking a little surprised.

The waiter obviously misunderstood what Alok meant and hurriedly said:

"Of course. We have more exquisite and more powerful weapons in our store. I will continue to introduce them to you."

Alok could only sigh in his heart, this store is really good. Never cheat the poor.

He looked at the greatsword and then at Florian. Said:

"Continue. I want to see if there is anything suitable. Including armor, round shield, must be more domineering."

Florian was almost shocked by the price. 520 gold coins are enough to buy extraordinary weapons. And this is just an embryo. It's just an iron lump inlaid with a little gold.

It can probably be done with 20 gold coins.

And this embryo has to be bound and enchanted. The value can be increased several times.

Just a product of the Imperial Crown, just a brand can increase the value by dozens of times.

There are so many rich people in the empire~~~ It's amazing~~~

And, from what the waiter said, there are more valuable ones here. . .

Although Florian, who just made a lot of money from Alok, can afford 520 gold coins. But he has objections to this price.

He doesn't want to spend so much money on it.

And Alok saw through the essence of these weapons and equipment.

This is not a weapon, it is a luxury. To show off, maintain the noble face, and show off one's status.

And that's what Alok is doing now. So it's exactly what he wants.

He doesn't want vanity to play tricks on him, but he sees the status and recognition that these luxury goods bring to Florian.

The Imperial Crown has the highest recognition in the entire Hutt Empire. Whether it's quality or history.

Just think about it, the hero of the Empire killed Jack and saved Damia wearing the armor of the Imperial Crown.

Once again, it advertised the Imperial Crown for free, and maybe it can also drive recruitment ads. Let Florian's influence be greater.

In this way, maybe Florian can become a brand image spokesperson.

People recognize Florian, the Imperial Crown recognizes Florian, and the army recognizes Florian.

It will be easier to achieve your own goals.

At that time, capital will push Florian to the top, and everything will be earned back.

He already has a plan in his heart. So he just lets go and buy.

"This, this, this. I bought them all." Alok said carelessly, pointing to some equipment that looked extremely gorgeous, full of justice, and could make the beautiful girls of the empire scream.

Great sword, armor, shield, boots, gloves. A series of equipment wrapped Florian tightly.

The waiter was very happy, and he also saw the preference of Lord Bilke. Pointing to a golden helmet, he said:

"How about this one?"

"This one won't work, it blocks the face. You have to show your face." Alok commented.
