Although the Swamp Castle was expanded twice under Gallon's leadership, it was still too small to accommodate the rest of the nobles who came here.

Fortunately, Roning made preparations in advance and renovated and decorated the hotel in the town so that it looked barely acceptable.

In fact, he could also choose Moonlight Castle as the location, which is luxurious and large enough.

Unfortunately, the railway in Moonlight Valley has not yet been laid and cannot be displayed.

At this moment in the room, Diane was leading the midwives busy in the room, and Knight Missy, who was Blanche's personal bodyguard, was also accompanying them.

Luo Ning did not go in. He waited quietly outside the room, listening to the cheering voices from inside. He felt nervous, uneasy and anxious.

Giving birth is a very dangerous thing, but this is for ordinary people.

Blanche is now a high-level magician. Although her physique is not as good as that of a high-level knight, it is much better than that of an ordinary person.

And Elrond is still waiting outside, so if there is any accident, he will be able to deal with it.

"Ha, this is the first time I see you so nervous!"

As his great-grandson was about to be born, Lu Lan specially returned to Swamp Town from the front line and was now sitting on the sofa waiting.

In addition, the lame Wiggins, as Ronin's father, was also present today, as well as Ronin's younger brother Breton, and Lilia Heiyu, with whom he was engaged.

Luo Ning smiled and sat down on the sofa as well: "It's the first time after all, it's normal to be nervous."

"When your mother gave birth to your sister, I was like you."

Wiggins smiled and said, "After I had you as my second child, I felt a lot less nervous."

The original Wiggins had a somewhat weird personality, was prejudiced against Roning, and even did many things that made people feel uncomfortable.

But now, he no longer put on airs as a father in front of Roning, and behaved like a cultured and gentle person.

There is no way, after all Roning is a legend, the Duke of the kingdom, and the future king.

Of course, Wiggins feels pressured, but also proud.

"Luo Ning, have you chosen a name for the child?" he asked.

Luo Ning nodded and said, "Okay, the name is Roland, Roland Wushan."

Lu Lansi raised his eyebrows, "It's a boy?"

Ronin nodded, "Yes."

He is a legendary magician with very strong mental power. Although Blanche is a high-level magician, she can sense the situation inside her body very clearly.

So even though the child hasn't been born yet, both of them already know its gender.

That's why Ronin named the boy, hoping that Roland would be a brave and courageous prince in the future and be able to carry out Ronin's ideas of reform.

Lu Lansi laughed, "Not bad!"

"Congratulations, brother. I didn't expect that I would have a nephew soon!" Bretton said with a smile.

Luo Ning smiled and said, "You and Lilia should work hard too, and try to raise my seniority to a higher level as soon as possible."

Lilia lowered her head, her face flushed.

Bretton scratched his head awkwardly and said, "I've talked to Lilia about this. There's no rush for now. At least wait until I reach the level of Golden Knight!"

He is only seventeen years old now. Although he is a bronze knight, it will probably take two or three years for him to become a gold knight, even with the help of potions.

It’s about the same to have children at the age of 20.

While they were talking, a loud cry was heard from the room. Everyone was cheered up. Luo Ning stood up and ran to the door.

After a while, the door slowly opened and Diane walked out with a smile on her face, holding a newborn life in her arms.

"Congratulations, Luo Ning, it's a healthy boy!"

Luo Ning let out a long sigh, his face filled with joy that was hard to conceal, and he held the child in his arms in a hurry.

At this moment, he actually had a feeling of unreality, and his mind suddenly recalled a familiar passage from before the time travel:

"Child, when you were born, the whole..."

Luo Ning shook his head, getting rid of all the random thoughts, and carefully looked at the little man in his arms. At this moment, he had his eyes closed and was in a very calm mood.

Lulans, Bretton and others also came over. Roning handed the child to Lulans and walked into the room.

He gently held Blanche's hand and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work!"

Blanche smiled, sweat wet her long golden brown hair, but her face was full of happiness.

The news of the birth of a new life quickly spread throughout Swamp Castle and even the entire Swamp Town.

The nobles who came to congratulate walked into the castle one after another, expressed their congratulations to Ronin, and also presented the gifts they had prepared for a long time.

The long-awaited banquet finally officially began.

Although there were a variety of Western dishes at this reception, the Chinese dishes that Luo Ning has loved to eat in recent years were also served, in addition to which there were also prepared white wines and so on.

Although many dishes looked strange in the eyes of the nobles, they gave them an indescribable sense of freshness after eating them.

The lively atmosphere lasted the whole day.

The next morning, Chahar, who was in charge of the reception, took the nobles to visit the coal base so that they could better understand this resource.

At the same time, they will go back and look at their respective territories to see if they can find similar mineral veins like Viscount Marvin did.

After visiting the coal base, Chahar took everyone to the outside of the factory.

"what is this?"

Soon someone discovered a railway that led directly to the distance. Puzzlement, confusion and curiosity made many nobles unable to help but come closer to take a look.

After all, this is the territory of the Conqueror Duke, and he may very well be the master of this continent in the future. Everything here is worth their careful study.

And since Chahart brought them here, there must be something going on.

Luther squatted beside the two railroad tracks and looked at them carefully.

"With such a perfect connection, this rail must not be made by an ordinary person!"

As the Minister of Finance of the Kingdom of Alduin, he was keenly aware of the complexity of this railway and also smelled the scent of wealth.

"Sir Chahar, I wonder what this thing is for?"

"Yes, such a long track must have consumed a lot of iron ore. Does the Duke have any special purpose?"

The nobles raised their questions one after another and were full of curiosity about this railway.

Chahar smiled.

Once upon a time, he was just a small steward who followed a down-and-out baron to a remote mountain forest, but now he is able to discuss matters on the same stage with these nobles and ministers of the kingdom, which he would never have dared to imagine before.

"Everyone!"

Chahar said loudly: "This railway is a great invention of Lord Conqueror Duke Ronin!"

When he mentioned Roning, who made him successful, his tone was very passionate.

"It will revolutionize the way we move goods and people, making our territories more connected and more prosperous!"

The nobles looked at each other in bewilderment. Although they were very familiar with the word "prosperity", they were still unfamiliar with the concept of railways.

Just as they were wondering, a loud noise came from a distance.

Seton drove the steam train from a distance with pride and excitement.

Although the railway has not been completed, a few miles of it are enough for display purposes.

Bang bang bang~

There are two steam locomotives at the head and the tail, and five carriages in the middle, which are loaded with soil, wood, coal and other materials.

"This is!"

"Oh my god, what is this, a monster I have never seen before?"

"No, it's made of steel, and it doesn't have any legs. How can a monster look like this?"

Everyone showed a look of horror, especially the visual and auditory oppression brought by the approaching train, which made them so nervous that they could not breathe.

The nobles retreated one after another. They had never seen such a huge creature, and they could not imagine that it could move on its own.

squeak!

With a loud friction sound, Seton skillfully controlled the steam train and slowly stopped it in front of everyone.

At this time, everyone present could see its appearance and the materials transported in the carriage.

Sidon walked out of the cab, bowed to the nobles, and then began to introduce:

"My dear nobles, I am Sidon, the driver of this train, Ubeiling No. 1. Please allow me to introduce this train to you all!"

Luo Ning stood in the air, quietly listening to the exclamations from below, knowing that the word "train" had been deeply rooted in people's minds today.

Luther came to the side of the carriage and looked up in shock at the gravel and sand on top.

According to Simon, the gravel loaded in this carriage weighs 60,000 kilograms. How many horses and manpower would be needed to transport so much on land?

But the key point is that this is just one carriage of the steam train, and there are four more carriages like this!

More importantly, this is not the maximum carrying capacity of the train.

As a businessman and financer, Luther knew very well that the impact that trains had on transportation was almost subversive!

At this moment, the image of Roning in his heart also became extremely noble.

“Great, amazing!”

He couldn't help but think in his heart: "Such a person will definitely be the leader of the continent in the future, and will bring unprecedented changes and glory to the entire continent!"
