As a dragon species, Carlos's growth period is very long, but its strength cannot be judged simply by its level.

Since leaving the cave that imprisoned him, Carlos has spent half a year living freely.

With full meals every day and good sleep every night, its level progress has not improved much, but its size has grown a little. Now, including its tail, it is estimated to be about ten meters long.

It is also unknown how big this creature will grow.

Carlos had flown from Wushan Castle to Swamp Town several times, flying at full speed, and landed in Swamp Castle in just over an hour.

As the town with the most convenient connection between Wubei Territory and the outside world, the Swamp Town has now become a hub connecting the outside world with the rear Shanlin Town, Sanfang Town and Heitu Town.

Elron, who is in charge of the Wubei territory, lives in the Swamp Castle. Others, such as Wilson, Chahar, Galen and Bella, have moved here.

Compared to the last time he came back, Ronin found that there were more people in the Swamp Castle. He saw many new servants busy in the yard. Some were taking care of the landscape plants in the yard, some were renovating the roof, and some were cleaning the drainage ditches.

"gallon."

Since Chahar became the financial officer, the position of castle steward has been taken over by Galen, the former personal servant.

He has learned and consulted a lot from Chahar in the past few months, and has gradually mastered what a butler should do.

The only thing that made him a little regretful was that the lord was often away from home, which made his life more or less boring.

Hearing this familiar voice, Galen trembled all over, then turned around suddenly and saw the tall figure walking towards him.

"Master, you are finally back!"

The surprised voice made the busy servants around stop their work. They all looked at Roning at the same time. As the new servants of the castle, it was the first time for them to see the master of Wubei Territory, and they felt a little timid.

"What are you standing there for? Why don't you say hello to the master?" Galen shouted.

Everyone seemed to have just woken up from a dream and immediately greeted him respectfully.

Luo Ning smiled and greeted, "What are you doing?"

Galen chuckled and said, "The Swamp Castle hasn't been repaired for a long time. I thought you would be back by the end of the year, so I arranged for them to do a major renovation of the castle. I didn't expect you to come back before it was completed."

Roning nodded.

As the only castle he had in Wubei Territory, it really needed some repairs.

"Everyone, get busy and be safe."

Roning said, "Gallen, go inform Elron, Wilson, Chahar and others, and ask them to come see me."

"Yes, sir!"

Luo Ning went straight back to his study.

Despite all the time that had passed, the study was still very clean, obviously cleaned every day.

With the return of the lord, the servants of the castle seemed to have found a backbone, and the atmosphere became much more lively than before.

Since Elrond was inside the castle, he was the first to arrive in the study.

"God bless you, my lord, you are finally back!"

"Long time no see, my great physician, your strength has improved a lot!"

Elrond's cultivation progress at this time has reached the level of a magician (2090/3500). If it were not limited by Ronin's level, he could have made a breakthrough with the energy essence.

Next, Elrond reported on the recent research on magic potions and herbology. Since cooperation had been reached with external suppliers recently, many materials could be purchased, so the progress of these two areas was good.

"Sir, this is the explosive potion I made recently. Hehe, I spent a lot of energy and gold coins to buy the blood of a level 6 monster."

Luo Ning's eyes lit up.

Elrond had wanted to make this potion when he first entered Stonehenge.

Luo Ning looked at the brown pill in his hand and said, "If I drink it, can the knight burst out an extra 50% of his strength?"

"Yes sir, I have asked Reg Hodge to try it, and the effect is very good!"

Elron is very satisfied with the research results. Although its side effects are very serious, bursting out of strength at the critical moment can save lives.

"Reg Hodge?"

Luo Ning asked in surprise. It was a name he was not familiar with.

"He is a bronze knight who recently came to Wubei Territory to seek refuge with you. It is said that his ancestors were honorable knights, but later fell into decline."

Elron explained: "The explosive potion has certain requirements on the strength of the user. It can only be used by a bronze knight at least. Otherwise, the body will explode and die. Redar, McKen and the others are not here, so I can only ask Rig to try."

Roning smiled and said, "I thought Yusuf's joining was already good, but I didn't expect there would be a bronze knight. When the meeting is held in two days, I will ask them all to come and see me."

"They hope to see you, too."

Elron smiled and said, "In addition to Yusef and Rig, there are ten other professional knights that I have approved to join, including a senior knight named Damon. They all came here because of my reputation."

After the last battle, Roning's fame spread, so it was normal for him to attract people to join him.

If the news of his becoming a baron of the kingdom and marrying Blanche spreads now, more people will come to him.

Roning asked briefly, and then the topic returned to the burst potion.

"How much of this do you have?"

Elrond held out his palm and said, "Including the one in your hand, I have five in total."

"There are only five." Luo Ning felt a little regretful.

"The main reason is that the blood of level 6 monsters is limited, and the failure rate is not low, so the quantity is limited." Elron explained: "But I plan to sell each one for 300 gold coins, and I can still make 300 to 400 gold coins."

Luo Ning nodded. If this thing didn't have too many side effects, it could be sold at a higher price.

"Give me four first."

Roning asked for these four pills for himself, Redar, McKen, and Karada.

"Of course you can, but..."

Elron chuckled and said, "I don't have enough money. If you don't allow me to sell it, I have to sponsor it first."

Although Elrond made some money from spell scrolls and selling herbs in the Horse Herder City in the past two months, the investment in magic potions was too large and the funds on hand were not enough.

“Hahaha~”

Luo Ning laughed, "I think your main purpose of coming to see me today is to solicit investment, right?"

Elron chuckled awkwardly. He did have such a plan.

Luo Ning was not vague and immediately allocated 3,000 gold coins. "We need to quickly set up the sales of magic potions. Our territory will have huge expenses in the future."

"Don't worry, sir. Now that I have two senior magicians, Jenny and Yusuf, under my command, it will be much easier. In another six months, we will definitely be able to make a profit!"

Roning nodded.

Perhaps, we can find an opportunity to announce the identity of Elrond's wizard and potion master.

A magician of this level has the same appeal as him, and might attract more magicians to join, just like he can now attract civilians and knights to join the Wubei Territory.

"Perhaps I can consider building a magic academy in Wubei Territory." (End of this chapter)
