Chapter 26 An unexpected surprise
In the courtyard of the castle on the lake, the Hermann family was sitting on a bench having a warm afternoon tea.
"Father, isn't it a good idea for us to receive Luo Ning like this?"
Malik couldn't help but express his feelings. He was very surprised when he heard Herman's arrangement.
"Yes father!"
Marina echoed while eating her favorite fruit pudding. She had been eating bread and dry meat on the road for the past two days, which made her almost depressed, but she was still comfortable at home.
"Although the food in Luoning's team is terrible, he managed to save Malik and I. I'm going to ask the chefs to make something delicious to entertain him!"
"Haha~"
The tall one-armed lone wolf put down the fruit plate and said, "You are still young and don't understand many things. Although Luo Ning was deprived of his inheritance rights and was assigned to a barren and remote mountain town, Barrington of the Hyde family was petty. very."
Marina didn't understand, but Malik, who was younger, somewhat understood.
"Father, are you saying that the Hyde family will still avenge Selina? Will they also deal with Ronin?"
Gehrman shook his head, "Not yet, Lord Rulans is still alive. But Lord Rulans is not in good health. If he is gone one day, it's hard to say."
"Although Luoning saved you, I am very grateful to him, but it is not a good thing not to be caught and taken care of by the petty Barrington. Therefore, it is better for us to keep a distance from Luoning as much as possible."
At the same time, Luo Ning's motorcade had already left Hushang Town and was resting on the side of the road.
"Master, the Green family is so rude!"
The valet Chahar was still complaining to Luoning about the Green family's hospitality.
"We managed to save the heir of their family, but they actually let us take our things and leave without even arranging a luncheon. They clearly didn't take you or Wushan Castle seriously!"
Yes, after Flavia prepared the supplies, she had the intention to leave without giving them away.
No matter how thick-skinned Luo Ning was, he would not have the intention to stay for a meal.
For him, it is enough to get the things anyway.
Chahar glanced at the new carriages at the rear of the team, pouting and complaining, "It's just such a small amount of supplies, who cares?"
Luo Ning chuckled, "What do you know!"
He was very rare for these supplies.
Now after doing the math, he has a total of 488 gold coins on hand, which is only a little short of five hundred.
For Luo Ning, if he wanted to complete the first generous gift and obtain the Sun qualification, he could sell a horse to get 500 gold coins.
Coupled with a magic crystal obtained from Pedro, it is completely enough.
But he didn't do that. The money was all used to buy magic crystals. If he wanted to use them in Shanlin Town but didn't have them, it would be difficult.
Moreover, he now has two subordinates, McCann and Elrond, and he is about to become an intermediate professional himself. There should be no problem in settling down in Hillwood Town.
"Sir, you have such a good temper. With the Earl's character, they would never dare to do this!"
Chahar was still angry about Luo Ning, "Thanks to us, we've been taking care of Marina and my brother and sister with good food and drinks these past two days!"
Not to mention Chahar, to be honest, Luoning was prepared to have a good night's rest in Lake Town. He really didn't expect Baron Hermann to be so cautious, or perhaps timid would be more appropriate.
"McKen." Ronin called.
McCann came over immediately, "Sir, what are your orders?"
“After leaving Lake Town, the guards’ training continued as usual.
Luo Ning ordered: "In addition, I will mention your strength again, don't live up to my expectations!"
McCann was stunned for a moment, and then he felt the fighting energy in his body filling up, and he understood the meaning of Luo Ning's words.
"McCann will definitely live up to your expectations!"
Luo Ning waved his hand, "Go and digest this improvement."
To break through from intermediate to advanced level, knights need 200 energy essence points and magicians need 300 energy essence points.
Ronin considered that the current situation required a battle force lineup, and Elrond was a light magician, so he prepared to upgrade McCann's level first so that he could reach a high level as soon as possible.
At this time, McCann's level progress has reached 70/200.
Luo Ning calculated that if there was no income from other energy essences and just relying on monthly sign-ins, McCann would be able to become a senior knight by next month.
In a small town, high-level knights have reached the ceiling of their combat power.
Take the town on the lake as an example. Apart from Baron Hermann who is the Bronze Horseman, the Green family does not seem to have a second Bronze Horseman.
Their knight commander, Andrea Labor, is only a high-level peak knight.
While Luo Ning was thinking, a commotion suddenly broke out from the guards.
"What's going on?" Luo Ning looked over.
But he saw a guard running over excitedly and kneeling on one knee in front of Luo Ning.
"My lord, my lord! I have made a breakthrough, I have awakened the fighting energy seeds!"
"oh?"
Ronin's face was filled with joy. He glanced at the magician and said, "Elrond, please check it for me."
"Happy to oblige!"
Elrond stepped forward with a smile and poked the guard's heart with his finger. As his mental power penetrated slightly, he sensed the opponent's fighting spirit seeds, which were very weak.
The guards were not familiar with this person who suddenly appeared in the team. They only knew that Elron was the friend of the Baron, so everyone was very respectful.
At this moment, the guard who knelt on one knee finally understood that the friend of the Baron was indeed not a simple person.
He looked at Elron with expectation. The latter nodded and turned to congratulate Ronin: "Sir, he has indeed awakened the fighting spirit seed."
"Congratulations, sir, you have another knight subordinate!"
Chahar was excited. He felt more and more that following Master Ronin was a wise choice.
After hearing this confirmation, the other guards all showed envy.
Extraordinary, there was an extraordinary among them.
People say that to become a noble, the first step is to become a freeman, the second step is to become an official, a servant or awaken the extraordinary, the third step is to become a canonized knight, and the fourth step is to be a knight.
The guard in front of him took the second step.
Ronin looked at the thin boy in front of him, but his eyes were full of hope, and he couldn't help laughing.
"Very good, tell me your name and age!"
"Sir, my name is David, I will be sixteen this May!" the boy answered excitedly.
Roning's eyes lit up, he didn't expect this to be a good young talent, as expected, he made the right choice when he chose someone under eighteen years old.
"Not bad!"
Roning was very satisfied, "From today on, you will be McKen's deputy, your salary will increase from 2 copper coins per day to 30 copper coins per day!"
Roning didn't raise the salary randomly, he asked Hallward when he left Wushan Castle that day, and the junior knights were basically treated like this.
"Oh my God, thirty copper coins!"
David was shocked by this number, he didn't expect that he could get such a high salary, and he didn't expect that he could become a professional knight one day.
Thinking of his persistence during this period and the good food and drink provided by Lord Roning, he was moved to tears.
"Thank you, sir, woo woo, thank you, sir!"
David said with a trembling voice: "It is your gift and training that made me awaken the seeds of fighting spirit. The seven gods bear witness that I, David, will follow you to death from now on!"
"I see your loyalty!"
Ronin encouraged, "I also believe that the junior knight is just your starting point. One day, you will grow to a point that will surprise me!"
"Guard officer, David is in your hands. Train him well and make him the top fighting force in my Shanlin Town!"
"Yes, sir!"
McKen responded vigorously. He finally had a professional knight under his command.
Other guards, especially those under the age of 18, saw David's treatment. They were envious and jealous, and at the same time, they made up their minds to train well.
If Ronin's previous statement that training could lead to breakthroughs was a lie, then David's true deeds were telling everyone that Ronin's words were true.
Training really works!
As for whether it is really true?
Ronin himself was a little skeptical.
He was more willing to believe that David could break through, thanks to the recent improvement in food, and also thanks to the fact that his talent was indeed good.
At the age of sixteen, he awakened his fighting spirit seed and became a junior knight, and his qualifications were excellent.
"Now, I have three extraordinary people under my command!"
Luo Ning was a little high-spirited for a while.
"Shanlin Town, here I come!"
