Chapter 288 Consecration

During the chat, Ronin asked Rulans if there were any more advanced magic books in the castle, but he got a negative answer.

In desperation, he could only try his luck at the Magic Energy Chamber of Commerce, and reluctantly spent 600 gold coins to buy the magic book "Wall of Sighs".

This is a protective magic, which can summon a huge translucent wind wall to resist range attacks after casting.

In the next two days, while learning magic, he took Irene around, so that this child who had lived in the mountains for more than ten years could have a good look at the outside world.

On Wushan Lake, Ronin successfully mastered this magic while accompanying Irene to play.

Looking at the huge translucent wind wall in front of him that was ten meters long and five meters high, he could feel its strength, and he was afraid that it could even block Redar's Explosive Flame Slash.

"It's a pity that the sixth-level magic can hardly expand the range like the previous fifth-level magic, otherwise the enemy's ordinary arrows can be useless with this wind wall."

In addition to the high consumption of the sixth-level magic, the composition of its spell patterns is also very complicated. The magicians at the level of wizards are not yet able to enhance its range and effect.

...

September 7th, Wushan Castle set a date for the celebration banquet.

At the dinner that day, the nobles of Wushan Territory gathered together to celebrate the great victory of this war.

"Hey Ronin, I heard about your deeds in the Stone Territory, and I admire you very much!"

Yusef Levi came over with a wine glass and praised, while showing regret: "It's a pity that my mission this time is to escort the grain and grass in the southeast, and I missed the opportunity to appreciate your style!"

Although this sentence is a bit polite, most of it is true.

At the beginning, he intended to participate in the war in the southwest, but his father, Viscount Sandro, was worried that Ronin's poor command would bring risks to the soldiers, so he took him to the southeast to be a grain transport officer to brush up his achievements.

Unexpectedly, Ronin's performance exceeded everyone's expectations.

"Yusef, I've heard about your achievements, too."

Ronin clinked glasses with the other party with a standard aristocratic smile.

"I heard that you successfully helped the team avoid several ambushes with the magic of wind of exploration. I didn't expect that you are already a senior magician!"

"Compared with you, what's my little thing?"

Yusef was modest, but there was still some pride in his eyes.

For someone like him who can reach the middle level of a senior magician at the age of 28, it is already very worthy of recognition.

The two flattered each other for a while, and Ronin turned and asked: "Yusef, when I bought materials at the Magic Energy Chamber of Commerce, I learned that the sixth-level magic book is rarely sold. If you become a magician in the future, where will you get the sixth-level magic book?"

Yusef scratched his head. Although he was a little proud, he knew that it was not easy to become a magician.

"There are very few magicians. The Magic Energy Chamber of Commerce has basically no market for the sixth-level magic books, so naturally they will not purchase them. However, the sixth-level magic books are still circulated on the market. If it is a seventh-level magic book, it is either in the hands of great nobles such as the kingdom and the duke, or in the hands of magic families. For example, the honorable Silva Mage must have a lot of magic books in his hands."

Silva is the top powerhouse on the continent and the object of admiration of all magicians. When mentioning him, Yusef's eyes are full of admiration.

Roning nodded slightly, so he was a little lucky to buy the "Wall of Sighs".

"If you want to get a sixth-level or even higher-level magic book, you can either work for them or buy it from the owner through interpersonal relationships. Of course, if you have money, you can also buy a spell scroll and reverse the spell pattern through the pattern on the scroll."

Yusef talked freely, "But this is very difficult, and it requires the magician to have enough accumulation and courage."

Roning's eyes lit up, and he ignored the method of reversely reversing the spell pattern through the spell scroll.

He was just thinking about whether to try it, but then he thought of the expensiveness of the sixth-level spell scroll, and he stopped talking all of a sudden.

"What are you two talking about here?"

Yusef's father, the Viscount of Lingchuan City, the leader of the Fourth Knights of Wushan Fort, came over and smiled and drank a sip of wine with Ronin.

"Ronin, congratulations, you are about to become the third earl of Wushan Territory!"

Huh?

Ronin was a little surprised. Lulans didn't say it clearly, so how did the other party know about it.

Sandro seemed to see Ronin's doubts, laughed, and explained: "Don't look at me, I also heard it from the big mouth Marvin."

"So that's it."

Ronin couldn't help but laugh. It seems that Lulans told Marvin in advance, and it is estimated that he also revealed this matter through the latter to see everyone's attitude.

Obviously, no one objected, even the Hyde family.

Yusef on the side couldn't help but sigh, an eighteen-year-old earl, it's hard to imagine.

Although Luo Ning's Wushan family identity certainly has the advantage, it is undeniable that the other party did help Wushan Fort and many families in Wushan Territory avoid a disaster this time.

"Ladies and gentlemen..."

The loud voice of the dinner host rang out in the lively banquet hall. Everyone looked over and saw Marquis Lu Lans walking into the hall with a cane.

Everyone burst into warm cheers and applause, welcoming the arrival of the Marquis.

They knew that the wonderful moment of this banquet was about to come.

Lu Lans stood on the high platform with a smile on his face. Today, he deliberately dressed up and looked solemn and energetic.

He raised his hand and everyone fell silent.

"I'm sorry to disturb everyone's enjoyable dinner, but I think we have more important things to do."

"This time, the Polland Bandits have been completely wiped out, the Black Gold Brotherhood has also been driven to Black Pine Mountain, and the Wushan Territory has achieved a huge victory!"

His words were concise and clear, without long paragraphs of foreshadowing or sensationalism.

"In these two battles, every brave knight has made outstanding achievements! While I applaud them here, I will also promote the nobles and knights who performed the most bravely!"

At this time, all the guests below shouted loudly.

This is the step that ordinary people take from commoners to knights, from knights to nobles.

Rulans looked around and shouted: "Toru, Philip, Thorstein, Melonica!"

The four knights strode forward and knelt down on one knee.

The first three Luonings all knew each other, but Melonica was the only one he met for the first time today.

The burly man's face was relatively calm, not as excited as the first three.

Rulans took out the long sword in Galil's hand and put it on Tolu's shoulder: "The Baron of the Wolf Fang Territory."

Langya collar, a small town to the west of Wushanbao, is named because its landform looks like a wolf's tooth.

Toru, who had earlier been the manager of the town, now became the owner.

Then, Rulans raised his sword and placed it on the shoulders of Philip, Thorstein and Melonica in turn.

The territories of these three people are: Cassirer Town, Surrey Town, and Wushan Town.

Finally, Lulans took back his sword and said solemnly: "On this holy day, as the lord of Wushan Territory, I would like to represent the glory of the king and nobles and grant you the honorific title and status of baron. May you use your courage to Protect the stability of Wushan Territory with loyalty!”

"I, Tolu, hereby solemnly swear that I will live up to this honor and use my sword and strength to defend the peace of Wushan Territory and fight for the glory of Wushan Castle!"

The other three people also said similar words, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became crazy, and everyone cheered for them.

Some knights were even so excited that they shed tears. Perhaps in these people, they saw the goal of struggle.

Luo Ning was enveloped in this cheering atmosphere. Being knighted might be the same as the joy he felt when he passed the imperial examination and was selected second and third overall.

It's just that today's scene was a bit formal. When he became a baron or a viscount, Rulans didn't put the sword on his shoulder.

After finishing his lines, Rulans asked the knights to hand the treasure boxes containing the baron medals and canonization books to the four newly canonized barons.

He picked up another box from the side and said, "Marvin, in view of your support, courage and strength, I will hand over the management of Quicksand Town to you. I hope you will bring new life to this devastated land."

"Thank you for your affirmation, I will work hard for the prosperity of Liusha Town!"

Marvin Ironhoof was already a Viscount. Although he had made meritorious service in the war against the Bolt Bandits, he could not be promoted from Viscount to Earl.

At this time, a knight walked into the hall holding a golden medal and stood beside Rulans;

Another knight came in holding a treasure box containing the canonization book and stood on the other side.

The atmosphere in the hall reached a real climax.

Lulans looked across the crowd and landed on Luo Ning, with a smile on his lips.

"Luoning Wushan, my follower, the Viscount of Wubei Territory, and my grandson!"

Hearing this shout, Luo Ning felt a little excited for no reason.

He took a deep breath, walked forward with his head held high, and followed the example of the previous ones, kneeling on one knee in front of Rulans.

The heavy sword was placed on his shoulder.

"Your calmness allowed Wushan Leader to avoid a disaster, your wisdom saved hundreds of warriors from being massacred, and your bravery made Wushan Fort's enemies pay a heavy price!"

Lu Lansi's solemn voice expressed hope, making the people in the hall breathe uncontrollably, especially those who were the same age or younger as Luo Ning, their eyes were full of longing and envy.

Brayton's eyes were full of admiration, and the Wushan family became stronger.

Eileen, who was brought to the banquet by Luo Ning, was also severely affected by this scene. She felt that such a scene was too solemn, and her admiration for Luo Ning was deeper than ever before.

Rulans's voice continued.

"Today, in the name of the owner of Wushan Territory and the Kingdom of Thunder Marquis, I grant you the title of Earl of Wubei Territory, and add Boulder Territory and Chishan Town to your fiefdom. May you use your wisdom and strength to contribute to this land. Bring prosperity and peace, and defend the glory of the family!”

Luo Ning said in a deep voice: "I, Luo Ning Wushan, hereby solemnly swear that as the Earl of Wubei Territory, I will use my wisdom and strength to guard the peace of the territory and defend the glory of the family!" (End of Chapter) )
