Although Ronin's Wubei territory is very large and can be called an earldom, it is undeniable that the area is mostly just wilderness and his current situation is not much better than that of an ordinary baron.

Even though Blanche had a bad reputation outside, such as being a jinx, she was still a princess of a country after all, and it was rare for her to marry down like this.

I don’t know how Lulans communicated with His Majesty the King.

"Grandpa, what have you paid to make this marriage possible?" Luo Ning couldn't help but ask. As a party involved, he still hoped to know more.

Lu Lans looked up at the fortress not far away and stopped. Now he actually felt a sense of effort when walking.

"Of course, a lot of benefits have been given up."

Lu Lans said: "For example, the mine in the north of Wushan City and some of the family's industries are all open to development and operation with your majesty's team."

The mine in the north?

Luo Ning thought about it and soon remembered that there seemed to be two mines to the north of Wushan City, one was a gold mine and the other was a large iron mine.

The gold mine was originally mined jointly with the kingdom, so the only thing that could be given up was the iron mine, which was a huge concession.

Lu Lansi said, "These are all small matters. Wushan Castle will only lose a few hundred thousand gold coins every year. The key is the change in your status. Our Wushan family is a marquis family, one of the top families in the kingdom, but we have no marriage with the royal family. We are also the only large family that has no blood connection with the royal family."

Those duchies and even some earls either had marriages with Alduin in their current generation or their ancestors had had marriages with him. This situation was indeed rare in Wushanling.

"Your Majesty is attracted by this. Besides, Blanche is not easy to marry. After all, the precedent of the Duke's two sons is there. The big families are not willing to take risks. Even if some nobles have such intentions, they will give up in the end because of the pleadings of their sons and grandsons."

At this point, Lu Lans glanced at Luo Ning, and his eyes seemed to say: You are quite courageous boy.

In fact, there was one thing that Lulans didn't say. After Lulans and Wiggins died, if nothing unexpected happened, Bruno would support someone with royal blood to become the lord of Wushanling.

Simply put, it means to let the descendants of Roning and Blanche become the Marquis of Wushanling.

Although the nobles in this world are loyal to the royal family, not betraying them is sometimes also a form of loyalty. On the basis of not betraying them, they argue with the royal family about everything, some political affairs are implemented slowly, etc. These are common phenomena.

So no matter what, family members are more reliable.

Initially, Lulans' idea was to use the royal family's reputation to secure a chance for Roning to survive, so that Orson and others would be hesitant when they wanted to target Roning.

But now it seems that some of his plans have failed.

It wasn't that it was destroyed by someone, but Roning's strength increased to the point that he couldn't understand or see through it.

Luo Ning smiled but said nothing.

According to Blanche, she had hardly met the candidates for her first two marriage proposals. If this could have "killed" the two dukes' sons, it would be too outrageous.

Moreover, he and Blanche had not only met but also had contact for several days, and he did not see any signs of being suppressed at all.

She has such a bad reputation, and no one knows who spread it, which has caused a significant impact on the reputation of the royal family.

"If possible, I would like to get married later." Luo Ning said.

At the age of 18, he could have gotten married a long time ago, not to mention that Blanche was a little older than him. But Roning was a little resistant to marriage, thinking it was too troublesome.

"Don't worry, it won't be too early. A marriage with the royal family requires a set of procedures, and it will probably take two to three years from engagement to marriage."

"But it won't take too long, after all, Blanche is old enough."

"All right……"

As they talked, the two entered the Wushan Fortress.

Roning was very familiar with this place. When he first came here, he was escorted to the fortress hall to face the Hyde family's accountability.

However, this time, Lu Lans did not take him to the lobby, but along the outer corridor to the storage room on the third floor.

"Open it."

Rulans took out a key.

Needless to say, there must be valuable things inside, but can a lock alone protect the things inside?

He secretly pulled it hard, which caused Rulans to laugh.

"Don't try. Although this lock looks ordinary, the materials used to make it and this storage room are all very precious black gold. Even if the Golden Knight wants to tear it open with brute force, it will be very difficult."

Luo Ning felt a little embarrassed and quickly opened the lock with the key.

"What is black gold?"

"A special material that is currently only in the hands of the Alduin royal family. Weapons, armor, and precious objects made of it are extremely strong."

"Can a blacksmith forge such a rare material?"

The heavy door opened, and the cool air from inside rushed in.

"Of course not a blacksmith. This kind of metal requires a blacksmith who is at least a high-ranking knight."

The processing of some metals is not just about making fire and calcining. Mixing in fighting spirit during the hammering process can bring out the maximum value of the material.

Roning was originally planning to ask who could forge this material, but at this moment he was attracted by the items in the storage room.

There are many items placed in the huge storage room.

Ronin couldn't name them, but their appearances could be found in reality - spears, bows, arrows...

"This is?"

Luo Ning walked to the back, where there were clearly three "red cannons" placed.

"Magic Cannon, its name."

Lu Lans introduced: "It has a spell array engraved inside. Activating it can cast the sixth-level magic Fire Dragon Swallowing the Sky."

He pointed at the last magic cannon and said, "Use it to cast the seventh-level wind magic 'Piercing Wave'. Its piercing power is so strong that even a seventh-level monster with strong defense can't withstand it, let alone a griffin!"

Luo Ning had experienced the magic of Fire Dragon Swallowing the Sky and knew its power.

When Carlos was in a bad condition and had restrained the power of his breath, it was the Fire Dragon that injured him and killed Natalia.

Now that Carlos has recovered, Fire Dragon Swallowing the Sky is a threat to him, but it may not necessarily cause unbearable damage.

But this piercing wave sounds too sharp just by hearing the name.

Roning couldn't help but look at the last blue-gray magic cannon.

He didn't have level seven wind magic in his hand, and Lulans had never collected them, so he couldn't estimate its power.

But when reaching the level of grand magician, the power of his magic is completely incomparable to the previous six levels.

Carlos probably wouldn't be able to withstand this magic.

"What is its lethal range?"

Luo Ning touched the barrel of the gun and asked with a sigh.

"The power decays very little within a hundred meters, but it poses a fatal threat to the Golden Knights within a hundred to three hundred meters."

Hiss~ Roning took a breath of cold air, this power is so great.

If Carlos exhales dragon breath at a height of 300 meters in the sky, the power of the breath will be weakened when it lands.

But this piercing wave magic energy cannon can pose a threat to it at three hundred meters.

Luo Ning had never expected that Wushan Fort actually had such a powerful weapon hidden. (End of this chapter)
