Lord: The inheritance right is taken away at the beginning

Chapter 22 Counting the Spoils

By the campfire, Ronin was counting the magician Pedro's belongings.

In addition to the four pieces of parchment, the small black bag contained three gold, 57 silver and 256 copper coins. Together with the two gold, 18 silver and 153 copper coins, he stole from the other two killed knights, Ronin's financial gains were quite considerable.

Oh, by the way, the armors on the two knights were also taken off by Ronin and used for himself. The two sets of full-body armour were not of top quality, but they were not bad either. It was estimated that they cost at least 30 gold coins, and two sets would cost 60 gold coins.

Unfortunately, Roning's body shape was unsuitable, so he could only give one set to McKen and keep the other set as a backup.

When he put away the armour, Kane, the knight of the Green family, was so envious that he almost drooled.

Unfortunately, since Roning had saved their lives and was a member of the Wushan family, Kane could only watch helplessly.

In fact, Roning was thinking about taking the intermediate knight's equipment from the Green family's warrior, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do it.

He is a kind-hearted man and would not do anything so extreme.

In addition to these obvious spoils, Pedro also had a fine quill pen (it was not known whether it was actually a goose feather), three small crystal bottles, and a thumb-sized purple crystal.

Luo Ning opened the bottle cap and smelled a fishy smell. He looked carefully and found that there seemed to be some crystal-like substances in the liquid inside.

"These three bottles should contain the magical blood of Pedro for making spell scrolls, right?"

Pedro had said before that in order to make a spell scroll. One would need to use Warcraft's heart blood mixed with magic core powder or magic crystal powder.

This small bottle of material must be worth a lot of money.

Finally, Roning looked at the purple crystal, and his mood fluctuated violently for a moment.

"This... this can't be a magic crystal?"

A magic crystal stone is worth hundreds of gold coins. If this thing is a magic crystal stone, Luo Ning will make a fortune.

It was a pity that he did not find any images of the magic crystal stone from his previous life's memories, so he could not make any judgment.

As for asking the Green siblings...

Luo Ning would never do such a stupid thing. What if the other party asked to share some with him?

"Keep it for now. We'll figure it out one day."

Roning put all the spoils into the space ring. This time, he rescued people and gained a lot.

It turns out that the extraordinary people are rich. They can get such a rich harvest from a robbery, oh no, a rescue. It really makes people feel happy both physically and mentally.

Therefore, sometimes, people still need to have a sense of justice, just like Roning.

He laughed happily for a while, then collected his attention and started to do his business, carefully studying the parchment of the Qingfeng Technique.

It clearly depicts the appearance of the spell pattern of the spell, and also marks the order of each node when drawing the pattern with mental power.

"I see!"

Roning memorized the spell pattern of the Clear Wind Technique in his mind and then put the parchment into his space ring.

"You can think of the spell pattern as the Big Dipper connected by lines. What I have to do is start from the first star of the Big Dipper, use my mental power to guide the magic power to point out the stars, and then connect them together."

"If the starting position is wrong, it will not form a spoon shape, and the spell pattern will collapse."

"The spiritual mana line connecting the nodes is bent, which doesn't match the straight line in the spell pattern of the Wind Spell, so it won't work."

"Only when you draw it in one go, with the order of nodes and lines completely correct, can you cast the spell?"

After figuring this out, Roning spread out his hands and tried for the first time to use his mental power to guide his magic power to carve the spell patterns of the Qingfeng Technique on his palms.

He thought he was pretty talented, but after several attempts, he failed to successfully use his magic power to condense the spell nodes of the spell patterns, resulting in continuous collapse.

But he was not in a hurry. Learning magic was not like learning swordsmanship from McKen. This was a field he had never touched before, and failure was understandable and acceptable.

"The reason for this failure is that the first node was carved too hastily, and not enough mana was used to maintain it."

"This failure was caused by a lack of concentration, which resulted in a break in the spell pattern between the second and third nodes."

"This failure..."

Roning failed again and again and tried again and again. Finally, after more than a dozen failures, the complete Qingfeng spell pattern appeared on his palm.

Immediately afterwards, the spell pattern flashed, and then a breeze emerged from Ronin's palm and blew forward.

At this moment, Roning realized that the consumption of mana was several times that of when he was carving the spell patterns.

But, finally, it succeeded.

Ronin smiled with joy.

"Ah~"

A low cry interrupted Ronin's attention. He raised his head and looked forward, only to see Miss Marina of the Green family holding down the hem of her skirt with both hands to avoid the embarrassment of being blown up by the wind.

"Good evening, Mr. Roning!"

Marina's face became even redder under the bonfire. "The wind is a bit strong..."

Roning touched his nose. It seemed that the other party did not notice that he had used magic.

Indeed, the Wind Technique is not as conspicuous as the Wind Blade Technique.

"Good evening, Miss Marina; why are you out?"

Just now, during dinner, Roning had a small gathering with the Green siblings and briefly spoke with them.

"I can't sleep." Marina walked over with her skirt lifted and sat down next to Roning.

The breeze blew, and Luo Ning smelled a faint scent of perfume.

He sniffed twice but couldn't tell what material the perfume was made of.

"After the thrilling experience this afternoon, it's normal to have trouble sleeping."

Luo Ning comforted him, "But everything is over now. Tomorrow, I will have my team escort you to Lake Town."

"Thank you so much, Lord Ronin!"

Maybe it was excitement or something else, but Marina grabbed Roning's arm, half of her body pressed against him, and Roning touched something soft.

"You know what? From this afternoon till now, all I can think of is you riding a horse and beheading the assassin. I don't think I'll ever forget it!"

Luo Ning: "…"

Are all girls from other worlds so direct?

He dared to believe that even if he pulled Marina into his arms and kissed her or even took her to his tent to spend the night, she would not resist and might even take the initiative.

But okay, Ronin admitted that he was still a little concerned about his appearance and was not interested in Marina.

Moreover, after midnight, he still needs to welcome his light magician, which is much more important than having sex with a woman.

The most important thing is that Roning is going to become a great lord, so why is he doing it before he even starts?

"Ahem…"

Luo Ning pulled his arm away calmly and then stood up. "Ms Marina, it's windy outside; go back and have a rest. I still have to practice sword skills so that I won't accompany you for now."

As he spoke, he walked to the side and began to swing his sword.

Marina was not angry when she was rejected. Instead, she looked at the man practising the sword with a smile.

She had heard about Roning, and they were all bad rumours. Even the young lady of the Hyde family committed suicide because she mistakenly went to bed with Roning.

But after seeing him today, not only her but also her brother Malik and Kane felt that Roning was completely different from what was rumoured.

This is clearly a courageous, capable, and handsome man.

The face under the silver hair became even more attractive under the light of the fire.

"It would be nice if I could hold Ronin while sleeping." Marina thought to herself.

Knight Kane was watching McKen and others training from not far away.

He did not feel the significance and value behind this training but subconsciously thought that this was not a new dance invented by the "funny" grandson of the Marquis.

A dance performance composed entirely of men was really rare. Could this be the legendary Baron Ronin's unique hobby?

But you know what, when this group of guards shouted slogans together, it was quite impressive and attractive.
