Chapter 104 Attitude
"Hahaha, don't take it seriously. You can't give away contracted monsters."
What Lu Lansi said just now was just a joke.
"To contract a monster, you must defeat it in addition to needing a contract scroll. Even if I wanted to give it to you, it wouldn't want to."
To Warcraft, human noble titles, fame, bloodline, etc., are all empty words; they only recognize strength.
If you want them to agree to sign a master-servant contract, you must first defeat them in terms of strength.
Ronin obviously couldn't do it.
Lulans raised his hand and patted the Thunder Wind Chaser's head. The latter understood and slowly walked into its house, crawled on the "bed," and stared at the grandfather and grandson outside the house with his copper bell-like eyes.
Luo Ning spread his hands, feeling relieved. "When did you learn to joke?"
He didn't know how to answer at that moment.
Say no, this is a level 5 monster. Although its level is equivalent to a silver knight's, its skin defense is amazing. Not to mention the silver level, it can even withstand the attack of an ordinary gold-level knight.
If you say yes, that would be too cool.
The nobles of Wushan Territory all knew that the Thunder Chaser was Lu Lansi's mount. Now, the old man gave it to a grandson deprived of the right of inheritance. What did that mean?
How could Luo Ning keep a low profile?
Fortunately, Lu Lansi was joking.
"Grandpa, did you catch this Thunder Wind Chaser in Wushan?" Luo Ning asked.
"That's not the case."
Lu Lansi's eyes flashed with reminiscence, "When I was young, I traveled to Misty City. There is a Misty Mountain Range over there. I happened to meet this guy in the mountains."
The old man seemed to have become quite interested in talking about his experiences when he was young. He sat down again and told Roning many adventurous things.
Roning initially thought that Lulans used his connections to buy the contract scroll from a powerful magician. Still, he didn't expect the other party to say that the scroll was accidentally obtained in a ruin in the Misty Mountains.
Who would believe this if I told them?
Anyway, Luo Ning just listened to it.
"I heard from Marvin that he gave you a Cloud-Stepping Horse."
Lulans returned to the topic of Ronin. "This is a mount with the blood of a magical beast. It is different from ordinary war horses. It can better resonate with the knight's fighting spirit."
"You know about the high-level knight's fighting spirit armor, right? When a high-level knight wraps his fighting spirit around his mount, the integrated armor formed is more solid than an ordinary warhorse, has a stronger defense, and consumes less fighting spirit."
Roning remembered that Slaine of the Gray Earth Tribe used his fighting spirit to wrap his warhorse and pass through McKen's earth wall, but the opponent was riding just an ordinary warhorse.
He didn't know that the warhorse with the Warcraft bloodline had such an effect, and Rogna didn't tell him when he gave it to him.
"You awakened your fighting spirit seed and became a professional knight after you turned seventeen. Even if you work hard on your training, you will probably have to wait until you are in your thirties to reach an advanced level, just like your father."
Lu Lans felt a little regretful about this. It would have been better if Roning had been one or two years younger. The earlier he awakened, the greater his potential.
"So you can give this Cloud-Stepping Horse to your subordinates according to the situation, such as the brave and skilled Knight Macan. This will make them more loyal to you and allow you to make greater use of the resources in your hands."
Lulans felt it was a bit of a waste to have the Cloud-Stepping Horse in Roning's hands, but he had no idea that Roning was already a high-level knight.
If he hadn't considered it inappropriate to reveal his true strength, Roning would have really liked to shock the old man.
"I'll think about it."
Luo Ning listened patiently to Lu Lans's advice. He rarely gave him any guidance since he felt his grandson was useless. It was rare for him to say so much today.
This also indirectly shows that Lu Lans has changed his opinion of Roning and has expectations for him.
"By the way, Grandpa, some knights in my territory don't have fighting skills. I wonder if the family can support me a little?"
"I have two water magicians among my subordinates. They only know the magic of water gathering and water arrows. Do you have any related magic books?"
Low-level magic books are not expensive, and Roning can buy them, but in line with the principle of economy, he will use the free ones whenever possible.
Lu Lans was surprised. How come this grandson had all these people under his command in such a short time?
In addition to the light attribute magician, there was also a water attribute magician.
It is rare to have three magicians in such a small mountain town.
"These are all small matters. I'll ask Most to send you some when you leave. But you have to be careful to identify those who surrendered. Don't be fooled."
Lu Lan Si reminded him, "Also, as for your last name, 'Firestorm,' I think I should find a suitable time to change it back."
It was Wiggins's request to change the surname in the first place and Rulans's request to change it back now.
Roning is not stupid, so he can naturally understand what this means.
"It will be all right."
Luo Ning smiled and said, "No matter what my last name is, the blood of the Wushan family flows in my body, and my roots are always in Wushan Castle."
"Hahaha~"
Lu Lans couldn't help but burst out laughing; this sentence made him very happy.
Over the years, he has been worrying about the continuation of his family, but there is neither the right time, the right place, nor the right people, so sometimes he can only accept his fate.
If Luo Ning were to say that he could see hope for the family now, that would be absolutely impossible and far from enough.
But Lu Lans was still very happy about such changes in his family descendants.
While the two were talking, Moster, who had left, returned, "Master, Master, Hallward told me that the dinner over there is ready, and Madam Diane invites you to come over."
"Okay, let's go."
Lu Lan Si walked along the mountain path, leaning on a cane.
Luo Ning quickly followed and supported the other person (even though the other person didn't need any support at all).
"Grandpa, I found a special tree in Shanlin Town. I named it 'Black Iron Tree'. It is very hard. Although the equipment made of it cannot be compared with iron weapons and equipment, it also has a certain defensive capability. It should be enough to arm ordinary guards."
"Is there such a tree?" Lu Lans was surprised.
"I was also shocked when I found it. I asked the carpenters in the territory to make some equipment. Would you like to take a look?"
Lulans nodded. He had seen wooden protective gear and even armor made of rattan.
"Most, go inform Toru later and ask him to come over and take a look tomorrow. If the quality is indeed good, the First Knights can consider purchasing a batch."
Luo Ning chuckled, "Also, William, the carpenter in Shanlin Town, has good skills. He has made some improvements to the plow for cultivating the land. I also added some ideas. This time, I also brought a..."
"Okay, okay, let's take a look at it tomorrow."
Lu Lans laughed, "I can see that your visit to your father this time is just a side trip, and doing business is your main purpose, right?"
"I am always concerned about my father's injury!"
Luo Ning said seriously, "It's just that I was already prepared to go to the Savage Tribe, and I couldn't get away. So, as soon as the matter with the Savage Tribe was resolved, I rushed over."
Lu Lan Si hummed, "Although Wiggins's attitude towards you is not very good, he is still your father. This guy still has his family in his heart, but his brain is too stupid and easily influenced by outsiders."
His tone was full of melancholy. He also hated Wiggins, but he only had one son. What could he do?
He could only blame himself for not training him well and focusing more on Grems.
"Wiggins lost a leg in this accident, which has improved his usual irritability and impatience. You can have a good chat with him later."
As the head of the family, Lu Lans still hopes for more harmony within the family, especially between father and son.
