After Sophia's introduction, the principle was the same as the hypothesis Ronin had made before, which was to use magic energy to drive it.

The other party bluntly stated that this kind of power consumed too much magic energy. Unless it was an emergency, they relied on the power provided by the sails to navigate most of the time. Occasionally, they would manually input magic power or fighting spirit to drive it, saving the consumption of magic crystals.

Sophia was very generous with this technology. As long as Ronin could provide enough iron ore for Simon to repair their ship, Simon would build a magic-powered ship for Ronin free of charge.

This was what Luo Ning had been longing for, and he immediately wrote a letter to Sailin, the political officer of Giant Stone City, asking him to increase the mining efforts of the iron mine in Chishan Town and strive to double or quadruple the annual output, the more the better.

In addition, Roning could see that even in the Crescent Continent, where fighting spirit and magic were relatively developed, there was still a blank in the field of steam engines.

During this period of time, his ability to use the earth's core fire and mental power to smelt steel has also improved.

So when Simon starts building the ship for him, Roning will consider asking the other party to reserve a place for the steam engine to be installed on the ship structure.

At that time, his ships will be able to be driven by steam and magic energy, thus completely getting rid of the constraints of sails.

Even though he has reached the sage level, Roning alone can destroy a country without top-notch combat power.

Destruction can be done by one person, but ruling requires enough people.

With such a vast territory, it is impossible for Roning to take action personally just because there is a little rebellion anywhere.

At any time, it is necessary to form a knightly order and arm yourself with strength.

Power at sea is naturally equally important.

What's more, the enemies are not only in the Orlant Continent, but also in the Crescent Continent.

Since the demon has set his sights on this side, if the Crescent Continent is destroyed, this side will naturally not be spared.

Roning, who already had the ambition to become the king, would naturally not stand idly by.

Time passed quickly, and it was June 10th in a blink of an eye.

The port of Niujiao Bay is moored with ships of all sizes, with various flags flying on them.

The Dennis One, flying the golden mountain flag of the Wushan family, slowly anchored at the port.

Rulans, dressed in a black robe, stood on the deck, looking at the prosperous and bustling port, his face full of sighs.

"Niujiao Bay wasn't this big or this lively back then."

Lu Lans smiled and said: “I didn’t expect that after thirty years, this place has developed to this point.”

"Yes, sir. The trade between the two sides of the Howling Sea has been very frequent in recent years."

This time, Vitorino personally led the escort team, "You have to take care of my Dennis Port!"

Lu Lans chuckled, "You can discuss this matter with Luo Ning. I want to enjoy more good times for the rest of my life."

Vitorino scratched his head in embarrassment.

He had originally wanted to ask Rulans to talk to the Fleming family before the navy on Rapids Island was formed.

However, it seems that the Marquis does not want to ask too many questions now. Some things were handed over to Wiggins, but many important matters were discussed between them and Roning.

The Marquis is still there, but the one in charge has become the Earl of Wubei Territory. This operation of the grandfather and grandson has set a precedent in history.

At this time, Roning was observing the size of the ships of the major families docked in the port and assessing their strength.

He originally wanted to ride Carlos directly to bring Lulans, Sophia and others to Golden Feather City, but Lulans wanted to see the scenery along the way, so he flew to Pointed Horn City and then took a boat here.

"Hey, is that ship flying the Moonlight flag from Moonlight Valley?"

Luo Ning pointed at the ships on one side of the port and asked in surprise: "I remember that Moonlight Valley doesn't seem to have a port? And he seems to have griffins."

Rulans and Vitorino both looked over.

"It is indeed the flag of Moonlight Valley."

Vitorino frowned and said, "Recently I heard that Jesus has reached a cooperation with Viscount Lucio of Langtao Fort. Moonlight Valley has leased Langtao Port, and this ship may have come from there."

Lu Lans chuckled. He had not heard of this news yet.

"Jesus has always been dissatisfied with being just a count, and has always wanted to expand his territory and become a noble. I don't know what he has done to make Milk willing to lend the port to such an ambitious man."

Luo Ning also said: "It's strange that when Earl Orson of Black Python City caused unrest, Moonlight Valley was able to remain calm and not cause any trouble near Shore City."

Vitorino said as a matter of course: "If Jesus wants to capture the Shore City from the two knights, he must mobilize the elite knights. This cannot be covered up by using the excuse of the thieves group or the brotherhood."

Luo Ning nodded slowly. He agreed with this statement.

Sophia, who was standing not far away, listened quietly to the conversation between the three people.

This continent is not troubled by demons, but the kingdom, Alduin and Tricia are all filled with the atmosphere of war.

It would be very difficult to gather the people of the Star Continent together and have them participate in the task of exterminating the Demon God.

In recent days, Luo Ning told her that "pacifying the country is the first step to fighting foreign aggressors", and she increasingly felt that there was some truth to it.

If this is really the case, then it involves the issue of where the five-member team should stand.

Should we stand on the side of the promising Rhonin, or on the side of the larger Alduin royal family?

But if you choose the latter, you will inevitably be in opposition to Ronin one day.

Because she could feel that this young man wanted more than just fighting for the royal family of Alduin.

Moreover, the Marquis of Wushan Territory is also a Silver Moon Knight, and under him he has a Meteor Knight and a good friend who is a great magician.

The top combat power of Wushanling is very strong.

She whispered, "Harmon, this time when we come to Golden Feather City, we must get information about the strength of the nobles, and also understand their relationships with each other."

He wanted to know to what extent the instability here had reached.

“Woo!”

With the sound of a low horn, Dennis No. 1 successfully docked in the port.

Lulans raised his eyebrows, looked at the people lined up to greet him at the port, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Ronin, come with me and get off the boat."

At the front of the welcoming team was Blanche.

"It seems that you have a very good relationship with His Majesty, Grandpa. He even asked Blanche to come and greet him."

Luo Ning smiled and sighed, "I didn't get this treatment the last time I came here."

"Hahaha, when Bruno was young, he often came to my tent to eat and received my guidance. It's a pity that his talent is very ordinary."

The two got off the boat while talking.

Blanche's gaze shifted from Lulans to Roning.

Frankly speaking, when she heard that a civil war had broken out in Wushan Territory a while ago, she subconsciously thought that neither Roning nor Lulans would be able to come, and she was so worried that she couldn't sleep for a long time.

Fortunately, the civil war ended so quickly.

Now seeing her lover arrive as expected, she finally felt relieved.

"Your Excellency the Marquis, please allow me to welcome you here on behalf of my father, His Majesty the King."

She first said a very formal welcome, and then changed to a more relaxed tone: "I'm so glad you can recover!"

Rulands nodded with satisfaction. Putting aside Blanche's not-so-glorious experience and rumors, he was still very satisfied with his granddaughter-in-law.

Moreover, if anything happens in the future, they, Wushan Fort, are considered the royal family, and any choice they make will be justified.

"Long time no see, Blanche. His Majesty is really giving an old man like me face by asking you to come here in person!"

Blanche smiled slightly, "Not only have you recovered, but you have also broken through to the Silver Moon level. This is a happy event for the entire Alduin Kingdom. Father is waiting for you in the Golden Feather Palace. I hope to meet you soon."

“I’m looking forward to meeting him, too.”

Lu Lansi said this and made a gesture of invitation.

Blanche nodded, smiled and winked at Roning, and then led everyone away from the dock. (End of this chapter)
