Chapter 161: Strength Exposed



As the fog covering the Wushan City Colosseum was completely dispersed, the defense personnel led by Knight Galil quickly took over the place.

To be honest, Galil realized that something was wrong when he was just shrouded in thick fog.

While notifying his father, Toru, the leader of the First Knights of Wushan Castle, he arranged for the knights and guards to block all entrances and exits of the arena.

At the same time, he led the team into the thick fog, trying to figure out what was happening inside, but the arena was too large and they couldn't tell the direction at all.

After all, Galil was a knight who had experienced the battlefield. Faced with such a situation, his heart fell into a basin of cold water.

Not only Ronin was in the arena, but also Her Royal Highness the Princess of the kingdom. If anything happened to them, especially the latter, not to mention Galil, even Wushan Castle would have a hard time explaining.

Fortunately, with the blessings of the Seven Gods, although the situation in the Colosseum was chaotic and there were many corpses, Roning, the princess and others were not seriously injured.

Galil knelt on one knee and said, "I'm sorry, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, My Lord Baron, I failed to protect your safety. It was my fault!"

The frightened Blanche had regained her composure by this time. She stepped forward and reached out to help Galil up.

"This has nothing to do with you. None of us expected something like this to happen. But luckily everything went well and we were not injured."

Roning was still observing his surroundings vigilantly. Only after he made sure that there were no suspicious people did he feel relieved. The Mundo assassin would not come for a second assassination.

"Galil, arrange for someone to check today's audience one by one to see if there are any assassins hiding among them."

Luo Ning ordered: "Also, tell your father that the staff of the Colosseum must also be checked."

"Yes, sir!"

Galil didn't expect Roning to be so clear in his thoughts. He accepted the order almost subconsciously, and he didn't even react in time.

"There is one thing to note."

Luo Ning reminded: "There was a golden knight-level assassin who might have entered the Colosseum disguised as a high-level gladiator. Although he was hit by the spell scroll, he survived. I don't know if he has escaped from the Colosseum now."

Gold level? Galil's heartbeat slowed down.

The assassination actually involved the Golden Knight! The point is, even with the Golden Knight, the assassination still failed?

But he had no time to ask more questions. Even if such an assassin escaped, he would still be a threat to Roning and Blanche.

"I think maybe I should escort you back to Wushanbao first!"

Galil said quickly: "Gold-level assassins are too dangerous!"

Roning nodded, took Blanche's hand and walked around the rubble, seats and corpses on the stands and left the Colosseum.

In the carriage, Roning leaned on the cushion and closed his eyes to rest.

The battle with the two assassins didn't consume much energy. It was mainly because the huge amount of mental energy consumed by using the sixth-level spell scroll made him a little tired.

Blanche sat there quietly, her lavender pupils focused on Roning's face. She felt that the boy in front of her, who was a few months younger than her, was becoming more and more attractive.

"Ronin~"

She called out softly, "Thank you so much for this time. If you hadn't been here, I would have been killed by the assassin."

Luo Ning opened his eyes and smiled faintly: "Protecting your safety is what I should do, Your Highness."

"Call me Blanche. I prefer you to call me that."

Roning was stunned for a moment, then he smiled. He had just closed his eyes and was thinking about who would want to assassinate the princess, but he ignored what impression this incident would leave on Blanche's mind.

In fact, the two of them got along well during the morning's outing, and if there were no other problems, he guessed that the marriage would be possible.

Now the two of them have another adventure together. Although Blanche is a princess and has more knowledge than her peers, she is still just an eighteen-year-old girl after all.

Luo Ning knew from the look in the other person's eyes that the other person was probably attracted to her.

"All right, Blanche."

Luo Ning restrained his smile and said apologetically, "I'm sorry that the trip to Wushan Fort was not planned well this time, which led to this incident and frightened you."

Blanche shook her head.

To be honest, this incident has nothing to do with Wushanbao. If we have to say who is responsible, perhaps it is that we did not deploy enough defensive forces around when arranging to watch the beast fight.

Blanche shook her head, indicating that Roning didn't need to apologize.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. I'm actually more curious about you."

She blinked her big eyes, full of curiosity, wanting to find out more. "People outside say that you are a junior knight who awakened not long ago, but your performance just now was too strong!"

Blanche didn't know how many times she had seen the fighting armor, but she could never forget the scene when Roning's fighting armor covered her entire body.

"So, you are not only a powerful high-ranking knight, but also a mysterious magician?"

As a magician, Blanche could naturally see that Roning was using the breeze magic to disperse the fog.

Even though it looked a bit strange for the latter to use the sword to carve spell patterns in the air, no one seemed to say it was not possible?

Many magicians cannot do this, probably because the knight's sword is too heavy, and it is too difficult to hold it steadily and carve spell patterns on it.

Roning laughed. He had no way of hiding this matter. After all, the other party was not a fool. He saw Blanche clearly when she was held in his arms.

"Yes, I am indeed a knight and a wizard."

He spread his hands, "But compared to the magician, my knight is a little stronger."

After experiencing the incident in the Colosseum, Roning can hide some of his strength, but there is no need to hide all of his strength.

After all, in this world where supernatural powers exist, if Roning wants more people to follow him, in addition to demonstrating his ability to manage territory, he also needs to show sufficient strength.

Roning could not get over the tragic deaths of the knights in the mouths of the green-skinned trolls and the excitement of watching their own kind being eaten.

Since he has decided to bring a little change to the world, he can't keep a low profile.

Moreover, as a bronze-level player, he can indeed reveal some strength.

“You are awesome!”

Blanche couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's been a long time since I've seen a dual-professional extraordinary person who masters fighting spirit and magic. You are the first young person I've seen!"

"Have you seen anyone else like this, someone who practices both magic and martial arts?" Luo Ning asked.

"Yes, but they are all very old. But without exception, they are all very strong."

Blanche's mood seemed to improve as the conversation went on. She spoke a lot more and no longer maintained the practiced tone of a princess. Now she sounded more like she was communicating with a friend.

"Do you know Count Belora, the founder of the Silva Magic Chamber of Commerce?" she asked.

Luo Ning nodded, "I've heard of him. I heard he's an eighth-level magician?"

Blanche shook her head. "That was said a long time ago. As far as I know, Count Bello is now a ninth-level Grand Mage and a high-level knight."

Luo Ning was secretly shocked.

A ninth-level transcendent, what a powerful existence! In a chaotic era, a great magician can easily form a king.

He also understood why the Silva Magic Chamber of Commerce could be spread across cities large and small across the country. Its founder represented authority.

Roning was convinced that although Lord Bellaro was only the earl of the kingdom, no one would dare to take advantage of him.

Then again, it shouldn't be that hard for a ninth-level great mage to possess the strength of a high-level knight, right? After all, his body has been soaked in extraordinary power for years, so there should be some difference between him and an ordinary person awakening his fighting spirit seed?

"Luo Ning, can you tell me your specific strength level?"

The curious light in Blanche's eyes still remained.

"certainly!"

Luo Ning said without hesitation: "I am a junior magician, a senior peak knight!"

After saying this, he moved closer and whispered, "But I have never told anyone about my identity as a magician. Please keep it a secret, Princess."

"Okay!" Blanche agreed with a smile.
