Frost Leaf Town.

On Luo De's private training grounds in the manor.

Luo De held the dragonbone longbow that Rein had just crafted.

The dragonbone longbow was incredibly light, with smoothly symmetrical curved limbs, polished to an exceptionally smooth finish, exuding a faint ivory-like luster.

The grip was wrapped with thick bear sinew, comfortable to hold.

To Luo De's surprise, the ends of the bow limbs were engraved with intricate dragon scale patterns, the craftsmanship exquisite, completely at odds with Rein's usual rugged style.

"You really put a lot of thought into this."

Luo De gently caressed the body of the longbow, a smile on his lips,

"A whole extra week of work makes a difference, indeed."

"Thank you for your recognition."

Rein nodded with a bow, "Such good materials shouldn't be treated like an ordinary bow, so I took some cues from noble craftsmen for the decorations."

Saying this, Rein drew out a custom-made dragonbone arrow and presented it to Luo De with both hands,

"Please give it a try."

"Mm."

Luo De accepted the custom dragonbone arrow, placed it on the bowstring, and aimed at the target ahead.

"Replace the target with a round shield, an ordinary target won't hold."

"Yes, my Lord."

The guard responded promptly, hanging a shield on the stand.

Luo De gestured for the guard to move away, raised the bow and arrow, and took a deep breath before forcefully aiming at the shield fifty meters away.

"Creak——"

The bowstring slowly tightened, the sound alone revealing the immense power within.

"Whoo."

As Luo De exhaled, he instantly released the string, a sharp swish pierced the air!

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The shield on the wooden frame was instantly pierced, followed by the wooden fence behind it!

The key was that the arrow still hadn't stopped, who knows where it flew off to!

Overestimated it.

Luo De silently lamented.

This bow already had great strength, plus the arrowhead was a magic steel arrowhead with armor-piercing effects.

Should have foreseen this kind of power.

Luckily, there were no screams, so it shouldn't have hit anyone.

"Go retrieve it."

Luo De ordered.

"Yes, sir!"

The guard immediately called two soldiers and ran out of the training grounds.

But as soon as they ran out, they came back quickly with someone in tow.

And behind them, Frost came flying over, flapping his wings.

In his mouth, he was holding the dragonbone arrow.

After Frost landed, he widened his slit eyes, scanning the people in the training grounds.

His wings raised high, looking as if angrily searching for who shot the arrow.

Luo De noticed and gestured with his hand,

"Come here, it's mine."

Luo De smiled, and Frost tilted his head, staring at Luo De, expressing his dissatisfaction, but still walked up and handed the arrow to Luo De.

Luo De took the dragonbone arrow and handed it to the guard, gently patting Frost's head.

The dragon scales were a bit prickly.

Indeed, a two-legged flying dragon like this isn't suited for gentle touch.

"Hmm?"

Luo De looked at Frost, "No, I remember there's a ditch behind the training grounds, and further south is the barracks, what were you doing there?"

Frost shook his head, flapped his wings, and distanced himself from Luo De.

Luo De suddenly sensed something amiss.

"My Lord, there seems to be a sow in that ditch."

The Frost Iron Guard at the door stepped forward, "Still alive."

"A sow?"

Luo De was momentarily stunned, then quickly reacted,

"Frost, that's a pig!"

"It's one thing not to spare wolves, but a sow too!"

Luo De raised his hand, ready to smash the bow on Frost, but hesitated and restrained himself.

By the time he thought about bending down to pick a stone, Frost had already lifted into the air, flapping his wings to quickly distance himself from Luo De.

"Really convinced."

Luo De felt both helpless and amused.

At least it's a sub-dragon, yet insists on a sow.

"Go ask Tina what happened, why the sow is out here."

Luo De instructed.

Luo De guessed it was most likely Frost's doing.

No matter what, they have to bring it back.

"Yes, my Lord."

The guard immediately sent people to deliver the message.

Luo De then refocused and continued his arrow practice.

This time Luo De had someone bring over a stone slab

—Luo De intended to infuse blazing energy.

Forging such a special dragonbone longbow was for using arrows with blazing energy.

Luo De once again drew a dragonbone arrow, slowly pulling the bowstring.

Luo De had previously tested that the dragonbone arrow could conduct blazing energy.

But whether this dragonbone longbow could, he could only carefully and gradually infuse.

And in the instant the bowstring made contact with the blazing energy, it lit up with a crimson glow!

The next moment, the dragonbone arrow was also illuminated, with a magma-like sheen on the arrowhead!

"Whoosh!"

A red light flashed through the sky with a swishing sound like a meteor, deeply embedding into the stone slab, leaving only the arrow tail exposed!

"Crack, crack——"

Cracks started spreading from the edges of the hole outward, the stone slab's surface shattering in moments!

"This!"

Rein looked at the stone slab in disbelief, his face mixed with surprise and joy.

Surprised at the bow and arrow's power, joyful because he crafted this bow and arrow!

"It's a pity, just a thin surface layer."

Luo De looked at the result and sighed, shaking his head slightly,

"It would have been nice if the whole stone slab had shattered."

"...My Lord, this slab is as thick as ten armor plates..."

Rein slouched his shoulders, a bit helpless, "You can't expect to shoot down a noble's castle's towering stone walls with one arrow, can you?"

"I suppose that's true."

Luo De agreed, nodding.

The arrow just now consumed a third of his body's blazing energy, which is why Luo De felt a bit dissatisfied.

If he could easily shoot an arrow like that, Luo De wouldn't complain.

"Do you want to try a shot?"

Luo De handed the dragonbone longbow to Rein.
