Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Just from its appearance, this shield is already quite extraordinary. It contains a set of highly functional components, including detachable "Sunspot" spikes. Within the holy emblem disc at the heart of the shield, there are three hidden Mithril Thorns, which can extend into 3-meter-long Light-Burning Lances when infused with Divine Power (requiring the Knight's blood to activate).

The handle on the back is wrapped with Fire Salamander Hide and inscribed with the goddess's oracle, "Flame and Iron Law," with a pure gold wheat chain symbolizing the Knight's October hanging from the bottom.

Su Li handed it over to the real Sun Goddess Chosen One, Hilude, who was lying on Su Li's felt after taking off her armor, dressed only in pajamas, her large fragrant shoulders exposed, glowing fair and bright.

"Can you sense the full effect of this shield?" Su Li asked with concern.

Hilude held the handle of the shield to feel it, then calmly said, "It is indeed the Eternal Shield. Its effects need no detailed sensing; historically, it has appeared at least twice, and I am already aware of its effects."

Su Li, with raised eyebrows in surprise, asked, "It has appeared twice in history?"

"Yes, at least twice. Just in the Church Scriptures, I have seen records of it showcasing its might in two battles."

"The first battle was 'Monfuer's Last Bastion,' during the Empire's founding era. The first Duke Galmond used this shield in the Blackfire Pass battle to block the Skaven Ratmen's Dimension Stone Cannon barrage. After the shield face melted, it revealed the goddess's visage, causing the enemy forces to retreat. The fragments are now displayed in the Black Volcano Pass Great Hall."

"After being destroyed, this shield reappeared in Imperial Calendar 1187, participating in the Serf Oath War. At the time, tens of thousands of peasants were bewitched by Treachery and revolted. The peasant leader Marcus was even blessed by Treachery, possessing powerful Treachery Magic capabilities. The rebellion swept through the Empire's southern three provinces, once occupying the Empire's granary hub 'Blood Wheat Field,' shaking the foundation of the Imperial Knights' rule."

"Count Bohemond V, famous as the Iron Blood Purifier, boldly advanced, leading 3000 Iron Armor Elite Knights in the suppression. In the brutal quelling of the rebellion, he launched an assault under the magical bombardment of over a hundred Treachery Mages, finally slaying the leader Marcus. Ultimately, this shield was incinerated by the Treachery Mages' Divine Magic."

Upon hearing this, Su Li could not help but click his tongue.

He simply couldn't imagine, just how powerful must a knight and a shield be to withstand the bombardment of over a hundred mages and charge to the demon followers to slay them?

He became even more curious and asked, "So what exactly are the effects of this shield?"

"The first is its 'Solar Domination.' Once activated, it creates a 50-meter radius Holy Domain, weakening the Chaos Faction units' physical and Divine Magic resistance and forcing hidden units to reveal themselves, which has great deterrent power against Skaven Ratmen or Goblins."

"The second is the ability showcased in these two historical battles, 'Faith Feedback,' which consumes the durability of this Holy Relic of Glory to grant the user divine-like supreme power; forming an absolute defense force field around oneself, no amount of attacks can stop the protected knight's charge."

Su Li stroked his chin and thought for a moment, "This Holy Relic of Glory is somewhat similar to the 'Ancient Giant Dragon's Blessing,' just an ultimate enhanced version."

It's like consuming this Holy Relic in a one-time manner, allowing a knight to gain 'Celestial God's Power,' becoming invincible for a few minutes, ignoring massive ranged and magic attacks to charge to the enemy commanders.

Compared to the 'Radiance of the Scorching Sun,' it is clear this 'Eternal Shield' emphasizes enhancing the knight's melee capabilities.

If a knight can withstand countless attacks to get close to the opponent, the powerful 'Solar Domination' will significantly weaken the opponent's physical resistance (over 40%), how could the opponent ever win against this knight?

So, Su Li waved his hand directly and said, "Then this shield is entrusted to you for safekeeping."

'Radiance of the Scorching Sun' focuses more on enhancing the entire army's combat strength, more suitable for Commander-in-Chief Oerstein of the Hesse Territory.

This Eternal Shield is fit for High-level Attendant Chief Hilude to carry with elite cavalry for decapitation tactics.

In this world, no army can rely solely on any single trick to achieve victory everywhere. It still requires a lot of tools and abilities working together to become more comprehensive, more powerful indeed.

Hilude gripped the shield more tightly and felt the powerful Divine Power it contained, replying with heroic grace: "With this shield, I am more confident in tomorrow's battle against the Red Dragon, Drake."

Red Dragon, Drake, ah, that's a High Tier Divine Chosen level being, just shy of breaking through to a Legendary Giant Dragon.

Tomorrow's pressure is indeed still substantial, and it's uncertain if the God of Death's Chosen One, Demster, can continue holding on.

However, after battling the Red Dragon for three days and nights, he should not fall so easily, right?

Su Li immediately said, "Tomorrow we still have to travel and fight, so everyone hurry and rest."

Silvana heard this, a sparking light flashed in her eyes. She lightly bit her cherry lips, straddled next to Su Li, and said understandingly: "Lord～ tomorrow Chief Steward Hilude still has to battle the Red Dragon Drake, if she serves you tonight, it might deplete her strength and energy? How about～"
