Chapter 148 Sowing discord

This time, Luo Ning went to Wushanpu with only two other people, McCann and Tom, besides himself.

But that was not the case for Ironshoe Castle's fleet. There were ten carriages, all pulled by two horses. In addition, there was a small team of knights escorting them. There were seven or eight male and female servants accompanying them. It was a grand spectacle. Very.

In the words of Viscount Marvin, if aristocrats do not pay attention to pomp and circumstance when traveling, how can they reflect the nobility of the aristocracy?

Luo Ning could only smile and say nothing about this. He wanted to be noble, but his financial strength did not allow it.

The speed of the convoy is not slow. According to Iron Shoe Fort's plan, it will arrive at Wushan Fort on the 26th, which is enough time.

Traveling is boring, especially when traveling with someone else's team. Luo Ning feels constrained, and learning magic and fighting skills is inconvenient.

Rogerna, on the other hand, always wanted to spar with McCann when he was bored. He thought they were both high-level knights. In fact, McCann had already arrived in Silver and had to control his power during the spar.

"Sir, there is a convoy ahead." McCann reported during the march.

Luo Ning raised his head and looked over the team in front. Sure enough, he saw a team not far away. Although the size was not as large as that of Iron Shoe Castle, they should also be nobles.

"Haha, it's the convoy led by Thain."

Viscount Marvin smiled and said: "Let's go, Luo Ning, let's go over and say hello to him."

It stands to reason that he, a viscount, would not condescend to take the initiative to greet Leisen, but Marvin's character was like this, and he would feel uncomfortable if he didn't ridicule him.

What's more, Luo Ning was still around, and he couldn't wait to see the expression on Leisen's face.

So, Marvin took Ronin forward, followed by several professional knights such as McCann and Rogner.

Leisen over there naturally noticed the convoy behind him. He originally wanted to move forward as usual, but he didn't expect the people behind him to follow him.

When he saw Marvin and Luo Ning, his expression immediately darkened.

"Ouch, isn't this Baron Leisen from Thain Territory?"

Before the horse stopped, Marvin's taunting voice had already reached Leisen's ears.

"I heard that you lost to a high-level knight in Wubei Woodland. I want to ask a few questions for my son. Is that high-level knight really that strong?"

Luo Ning looked at him sideways. He was so straightforwardly provocative. Did he really not give him any face?

Leisen's face was very ugly. If the other party wasn't stronger, he really wanted to go up and tear this mocking mouth apart!

"Haha, your mouth is still as sharp as before, Marvin. I remember that someone lost to a Bronze Knight when he was at Silver level, right?"

"Now that everyone else has become a golden knight, you are still just a silver knight. How can you ridicule me?"

Luo Ning couldn't help but glance at Marvin, is there such a thing?

Sure enough, Marvin's face also fell. "At least I lost in the same level, but you are one level ahead of others. Who can't afford to be embarrassed?"

When advancing to a major level, the knight's body will be strengthened.

Generally speaking, bronze will be much ahead of high-level peak knights, while the gap between bronze peak knights and early silver knights at the same level is not very big.

Therefore, Marvin's words also make sense. In comparison, Leisen is even more embarrassing.

Leisen sneered, no longer entangled with Marvin, and turned to look at Luo Ning, "I thought the heavy snow this time would seal you in the mountains and not be able to come out. Now it seems that Baron Luo Ning is safe and sound. It should be It was not affected by the heavy snow.”

What he was very concerned about was whether the Skull and Bones Society would assassinate Luo Ning.

"Thank you, Baron Leisen, for your concern."

There was no expression of hatred on Luo Ning's face, and he looked the same as usual, "As the grandson of the Marquis and a vassal of Wushan Castle, there is no reason why I can't come out no matter how heavy the snow is."

Leisen felt reassured that no matter whether the Skull and Bones would assassinate Luo Ning or not, at least this matter had nothing to do with him.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Luo Ning to act so calmly towards him.

Ronin's eyes crossed Leisen's and landed on the burly knight behind him. "Why, you are traveling with Knight Joffrey this time. Where is Feliton?"

Rayson looked back at Joffrey, "Baron Ronin seems to be very concerned about my subordinates?"

Luo Ning deliberately did not answer the other party's words, and did not even look at Leisen.

He raised his hand and greeted the leader of the Black Collar Tribe, "Knight Joffrey, what Redal said to you will always be valid. The door of my mountain forest castle will always be open to you. As long as you are willing, you can join me at any time. Under his command!"

What he said immediately confused Joffrey. He didn't know whether to say hello to Ronin or explain to Leisen that he had no intention of betrayal.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Viscount Marvin looked up to the sky and laughed. He didn't know Joffrey, but he could make noises.

"Yes, Joffrey, what's the future for following a lord who was defeated by a high-ranking knight? It's better to change your allegiance. Ronin is a bloodline of the Wushan family and is many times more noble than Leisen. Following him will definitely be better than your current one." Things are going great!”

Joffrey felt miserable. He was originally the leader of the Black Collar Tribe, but after joining the Thane Territory, he was gradually ignored. Moreover, he could feel the vigilance and rejection of him by the Thain Territory troops headed by Knight Feliton.

The reason is that Joffrey is stronger than Feliton and others.

Originally, he should be excluded. At least he could live freely in the black-collar tribe, but he never expected that what Redal said was reported to Feliton by Knight Unai, and then he was transferred by Baron Leisen. gone.

He really never thought about switching to Luo Ning.

After all, a professional knight cannot change his allegiance at will. This will only make him cheap. Even if he changes too much, it is likely that no noble will be willing to accept his allegiance.

"Sir, I..."

He was about to explain, but was interrupted by Leisen's cold snort.

"Luo Ning, you are now a vassal of Wushan Castle like me. Don't go too far in everything. Don't think that I dare not deal with you!"

Of course he dares, and even assassins have come to the door.

Anyway, Luo Ning will attack the black-collar tribe as soon as the New Year's Eve is over, and he is too lazy to maintain any friendly relations with them.

As for instigating the relationship between Joffrey and Rayson, it was because Luo Ning could see that the other party was very suspicious.

Redal only spoke a word before Rayson took action, which was obviously unfair to Joffrey and his allegiance was called into question.

As I said before, Ronin is very interested in knights like Joffrey who don't have a very complicated background. It's a good thing to be able to draw him over and use him.

"Leisen, how dare you compare yourself to Luo Ning? No matter what, he has the blood of the Wushan family flowing in his body."

Marvin's eyes were cold and deep, and his tone was slightly threatening: "Or are you going to replace the Wushan family and become the new masters of the Wushan Territory?"

"fart!"

Leisen shouted angrily, "I, the leader of Thain, are absolutely loyal to Wushanbao! Marvin, keep your mouth shut!"

He didn't want to stay here any longer, "Let's go!"

Thain's convoy soon continued to move.

Ronin followed two steps forward and shouted: "Joffrey, remember my words~"

Leisen on the horse clenched his teeth, his face turned red with anger, and he kept roaring in his heart, "Damn, damn! Why haven't the Skull and Bones taken action yet? I want him dead!"

"Sir, I will not be loyal..."

"Shut up!"

Leisen shouted angrily: "If you dare, don't blame me for killing your whole family!"

Joffrey lowered his head and stepped aside, feeling very uncomfortable.

"Do you really want to accept that Joffrey?" Viscount Marvin asked, looking at the convoy led by Thane.

Luo Ning nodded seriously, "Joffrey should be a high-level peak knight. If we can get his follower and loyalty, it will be equivalent to getting another strong general for our Mountain Forest Town."

"Can you, a little baron, afford to support so many high-ranking knights?"

The annual salary of a high-ranking knight requires more than thirty gold coins. The average baron cannot afford to raise a few more.

But for Ronin, this is not a difficult task. The sales of the spell scrolls produced by Elrond are enough to pay these salaries.

The only thing that puts him under pressure is the bronze and silver level knights, especially the latter, which requires 336 gold coins per year.

Fortunately, McCann doesn't have high requirements for gold coins. Currently, he earns the same daily salary of five silver coins as Redal, maintaining the bronze level.

"It shouldn't be a problem to feed a few more people, right?" Luo Ning led Tayunju back to the convoy.

Marvin looked at the other person's back. Today's chance encounter with Leisen made him understand Luo Ning better.

The other party wants to win over senior knights, which shows that it has expansion intentions.

The key point was that Marvin didn't understand. Where did Luo Ning get the confidence to not be afraid of offending Leisen?

Are you confident, or are newborn calves not afraid of tigers?
