Among the books that Lulans gave him, there was exactly what he needed.
The third-level wind-attributed fighting skill "Fierce Wind Palm" is a fighting skill that combines attack and defense.
Although it is not as powerful as the wind blade, it can easily send people flying. At the same time, when facing large-scale attacks, such as arrows, the Wind-Splitting Palm can be used for good defense.
The fire-attributed fighting skill "Fire Clouds" is something that Ridal knows, and now Roning can also learn it.
In terms of magic, Ronin can learn Pyroblast and Wind of Detection.
Compared to Fireball, Pyroblast has a larger range, stronger impact, and the ability to cause more damage.
If a fire explosion hits an unprepared senior knight, it would be fatal.
However, this magic is very difficult to learn and consumes a lot of magic power. Most magicians find it difficult to master it.
The Wind of Perception is an auxiliary magic used to sense the surrounding environment and is relatively easy to learn.
After using this spell, the caster can listen to the feedback from the wind element within a radius of 300 meters, including fluctuations in magic power, fighting spirit, as well as the heartbeats and breathing sounds of animals.
Due to venue limitations, Roning did not learn Pyroblast and could only practice with Wind of Detection.
The style of the spell pattern of the third-level magic is very simple, but compared to the spells of the first two levels, it has a lot more spell nodes.
For example, Pyroblast has twenty spell nodes. If a magician wants to cast them out with mental strength and magic power in one breath, he needs extremely strong control.
Wind of Scrying is much simpler, with only twelve spell nodes in total.
After trying more than ten times, Roning finally successfully outlined the magic pattern in front of him.
In an instant, Roning fell into a strange visual state.
He closed his eyes and entered a hazy blue world, a special sensory world formed by the wind element.
Here, he could not only hear his own heartbeat, but also the heartbeats of McKen and the other two downstairs, and he could also identify their locations.
Ronin "looked" further away and saw the guards patrolling and standing guard in the castle.
However, the closer you get to the 300-meter limit specified in the magic book, the lower the accuracy of this perception.
"Third-level spells still consume a lot of magic and mental energy."
Roning sensed the magic power in his body. After so many attempts and one official cast, the remaining magic power could probably support him to use the fireball spell three or four times.
The main reason for having so much magic power is due to the blessing of attribute points.
After Roning was promoted to a high level, he still chose to add points to his magician level first.
After consuming the 28 attribute points accumulated from returning to Shanlin Castle to today, his magician level progress reached one-eighth.
[Level]: 3-Advanced Knight (0/300); 3-Advanced Magician (58/400)
It was difficult to have explosive growth, so Roning could only rely on the monthly signings to slowly accumulate. Although it seemed a bit slow, it was definitely faster than Bretton's cultivation speed.
That is why a relatively peaceful environment is very beneficial to him.
After mastering the spell of Wind of Detection, Roning meditated for a while to refine his magic power, replenishing the consumption of mana space, and then fell asleep peacefully.
It is now mid-October, and the temperature in Wushanling is almost approaching ten degrees, and it is still quite cold at night.
However, Wushan Fort would naturally not let people get cold. The sheets and quilts on Roning's bed were made of high-quality wool. They were not only warm, but even made Roning feel a little hot.
After becoming a senior knight, Ronin found that his resistance to cold, heat, fatigue and physical fitness had been greatly improved.
Compared to when he first traveled through time, he is now completely transformed.
The night passed quietly and soon came to the next day.
After breakfast, Moster came to Ronin's residence and told him that he could take the things mentioned yesterday to Wushan Fortress.
Luo Ning had been prepared. He took all these things out of his space ring and placed them in the living room of the small building.
They are three sets of ironwood shields, ironwood spears, ironwood chest guards, a set of ironwood armor and a curved plow.
For confidentiality, the plow was wrapped in a large circle of linen.
"McCann, the three of you and the servants take these things with you, and let's go."
The last time Ronin came here, he was escorted to face the accusations of Negan Golden Lion, the representative of the Hyde family.
That day, the Wushan family gave up the five baronies they had taken back from the Black Gold Brotherhood to the other party in order to repay the mistakes of their predecessor and Wiggins' command.
At that time, Luo Ning was still a little useless guy waiting to be punished. Three months later, he came here again, but for business.
At this time, there were five other people in Wushan Fortress besides Lulans.
On the way here, Moster introduced these people to Ronin. They are:
Sir Toru Venar, Master of the First Order of the Knights of Wushan Fort;
Gary Vinal, captain of the first squad;
Dawson, the quartermaster of the First Knights; Albert, the political officer of Wushan City; Curry, the financial officer of Wushan City.
Among these people, Roning had heard of the names of the first two, and among them, Toru Vinar's name was the most discussed in Wushan Territory recently.
On the one hand, the leader of the Knights had broken through to the Gold Level; on the other hand, it was Toru who escorted Wiggins to Black Python City. It was because of his protection that Wiggins had a chance to survive.
Toru was also injured in that battle. Roning couldn't see the scars on his body, but the scar on his left cheek was really hideous.
The Vinar family was not aristocracy, but was only knighted.
However, the Vinar family has a good foundation and a promising future, because Toru's son Galil reached the bronze level at the age of 30.
If you make enough military achievements in the future, it will be no problem for you to enter the true aristocratic class.
There were three remaining people that Roning was not very familiar with.
But there is no doubt that the five people who came today should be considered well-known figures in Wushan City, or even in Wushan Territory.
He originally thought that today would just be a simple meeting, but he didn't expect Lu Lans to call these people over all of a sudden.
When Luo Ning walked into Wushan Fortress, everyone inside gave him strange looks.
Some people were confused, some frowned in thought, and some nodded and greeted Roning.
After Roning nodded in greeting, he led McKen and others to stand opposite the group of people.
Lu Lans above glanced at Luo Ning and his group, then said calmly: "Since everyone is here, Luo Ning, you should start showing what you brought."
"Yes, Lord Marquis!"
Luo Ning smiled at the people in front of him and said, "Thank you very much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to listen to me introduce these specialties brought from Shanlin Town."
Since he came to discuss business, he kept a low profile and spoke very politely.
The people on the other side heard this opening speech, with smiles on their faces, but they were also muttering in their hearts -
Could it be that this Luo Ning in front of me has really changed his personality? His previous style of speaking and doing things was not like this.
They couldn't help but secretly glance at Lu Lans who was sitting above with no expression. What did the Marquis mean by calling them here today? In fact, they were confused when they received the notice last night. Although Most's people told them that they were here to discuss business with Roning today, was it really just a simple business talk?
At present, they don’t know the answer clearly, but that doesn’t stop them from smiling at Roning.
"There is a special forest in Shanlin Town. There grows a tree that I named 'Black Iron Tree'. It is very hard. Even a mid-level peak knight using fighting spirit would find it difficult to cut it with a sword."
"I took a fancy to its hardness, so I built an ironwood workshop and forged this tree into armor and weapons."
As Roning spoke, he raised his hand and motioned for the other party to look at the weapons in the hands of McKen and the others.
"These are made of black iron trees. I invited you all here today because I wanted to bring them to the Knights to strengthen their combat effectiveness."
"Baron Ronin, you said that the black iron tree cannot be cut down by even a mid-level knight's sword?"
The one who spoke was Galil, Toru's son. "I have never seen such a hard tree. I wonder if I can use your shield to test it later?"
"sure!"
Luo Ning smiled and said, "All these things today are for display. If you are satisfied and willing to purchase, I will transport the rest from Shanlin Town."
