It has been almost two months since the monster cleanup incident occurred in the Sansi Ledo Swamp. At first, people were still skeptical about the news, but then some brave people went to the swamp to investigate and found that it was really like what was coming from Beauclair Palace.
Just like the news, all the monsters in Sansiredo Swamp disappeared.
For a time, the whole of Toussaint was in a sensation. Not only the people, but also the aristocratic circles also focused their attention on the Sanzredo Swamp.
The reason why they pay so much attention to the swamp is actually just for profit.
Sansredo Swamp is the largest swamp wetland in Toussaint. It contains a large amount of peat, herbs and rare animals. However, because of the large number of monsters entrenched here, the commercial value of this area has not been developed.
But now that all the monsters in the swamp have been eliminated, it means that the danger here has disappeared, and the rich resources here can also be utilized.
For a time, the nobles and wealthy businessmen of Beauclair sent people to the swamp to survey the location of various resources, and also borrowed various influences to test the development of the swamp with the Duchess.
Compared with the powerful and powerful people in Toussaint who are all focused on the big cake of Sansiredo Swamp, ordinary people don't seem to know how their lives will change after the swamp monster is cleaned up.
What I am more interested in is the heroic story about Sylvia and the Knights of Light.
Due to the deliberate promotion of the Duchess, most of the credit for exterminating the swamp monsters was attributed to Sylvia. In addition, the knights led by Sylvia achieved an overwhelming victory in the war with the Belhaven Territory.
Victory, Sylvia's reputation has been greatly improved again, and her hidden status in Toussaint has left the nobles of Toussaint far away. Some people have already called her a saint, and even
Someone proposed to the duchess that Sylvia be given the title of knighthood.
Although Sylvia gained great popularity among the people of Toussaint and was loved by the people, her reputation in the aristocratic circle was not very high.
Because Sylvia, a foreigner, has risen so quickly in Toussaint, she has become an important force in Toussaint in less than two months, and she has gained what they dream of among ordinary people.
Adoration makes them feel extremely jealous.
What's more important is that Sylvia completely ignored the various privileges of the nobility. When she led the knights to patrol the border, she stood on the side of the weak several times in the disputes between the nobility and the common people, and severely punished the nobility.
She has several descendants of great nobles, and there are recent rumors that she is re-examining some previous cases of civilian deaths, in which some nobles played very disgraceful roles.
All these circumstances made the vast majority of Toussaint's nobles extremely wary of Sylvia. They all believed that letting Sylvia continue like this would destroy them, so they secretly used various means to slander Sylvia in front of the duchess.
Sylvia said that the knighthood formed by Sylvia and its reputation among the people had begun to endanger the status of the duchess, thereby provoking the duchess's dissatisfaction with Sylvia.
However, what they couldn't understand was that the duchess didn't seem to take these provocative words to heart. After handling her daily official duties every day, she stayed with her poet lover.
They therefore suspected that all this was the work of the poet Dandelion. The poet was good friends with the witcher, nicknamed the Butcher of Blavikan, and the witcher had a good relationship with Sylvia.
It seemed to them that Dandelion was whispering in the duchess's ears and blowing away all the rumors they had worked so hard to create.
So they felt that if they wanted to deal with Sylvia, they must first get rid of Dandelion. So without Dandelion knowing anything about it, he was assigned by the nobles to the side of Sylvia's faction, and
became the first target to be dealt with.
Although Sylvia didn't know that Dandelion was implicated by her, she did know that the nobles of Toussaint were consciously targeting her. For example, they not only raised the prices of some daily supply items, but also consciously stopped supplying them, even to suppress them.
In order to keep the development momentum of the Knights of Light, they also deliberately gave up tasks such as escorting caravans to several other wandering knights, secretly supporting the wandering knights to fight against her.
However, these nobles did not know that their methods might have had some effect before the Battle of Belhaven. But after experiencing that war, they saw with their own eyes the power of the Knights of Light, and saw the power of Xi.
Due to Sylvia's heroic appearance on the battlefield, several leaders of the Wandering Knights could no longer have other ideas. Shortly after returning to Toussaint, they all secretly joined the Church of the Lady of the Lake and became members of the church.
.
Therefore, when these nobles took a step forward and sent a large amount of supplies to the Wandering Knights' station, these supplies were then resold by various Wandering Knights to the Knights of Light at the original price.
Although the caravan escort missions of nobles and big businessmen are the main income of the Knights of Light, the loss of this income will cause a big financial hole for the Knights of Light, but this financial hole has not affected the Knights of Light in a short period of time.
The Knights of Light had no impact, because after the Battle of Belhaven, the Knights of Light seized a lot of property, the Duchess's reward and the dividends from the ransom paid by Belhaven. Even if the Knights of Light did not have this escort mission
The income can easily support a year and a half.
And Sylvia did not allow this financial loophole to continue to exist just because she would leave soon. She not only established the Knights' exclusive caravan, but also used others who had not decided to take action on the resources in the swamp to first
I asked Leo to use the spiritual network to explore the locations of several peat deposits, and bought the place as the private property of the Knights. I also recruited a lot of pharmacists as the exclusive pharmacists of the Knights, responsible for the swamp.
Collect herbs for planting.
With these properties, even if she leaves, as long as her successor is not a fool, she will not mess up the Knights.
In order to prevent some careerists from appearing in the Knights after she left, Sylvia not only established a round table system in the Knights, but also informed the knights in advance of her decision to leave in the near future, and even later,
Secretly bringing the Duchess to the Knights to attend a meeting of the Knights, which was regarded as officially telling the Knights of the Middle Kingdom that after she left, the Knights of Light would become the Knights directly under the Duchess.
Everyone in the knights was naturally reluctant to leave Sylvia, but they were also happy to be able to become the direct knights of the duchess, because this meant that they were truly separated from the seemingly wandering knights.
The scenery is actually an embarrassing state of poverty. From a certain point of view, every one of their official knights can be knighted and considered a member of the nobility, even the lowest level of nobility.
Also because of the emergence of the Duchess's secret, the abnormal fluctuations within the Knights caused by some rumors created by the nobles quickly calmed down.
Compared to Sylvia's dazzling and eye-catching appearance in Toussaint, Leo, as his partner, is much more low-key, except for surveying the peat mines in the swamp for Sylvia and recruiting Alto to become a knight.
Apart from these two tasks as a warlock consultant, he spent the rest of his time in the hut that Sylvia built for him on the edge of Lake Seravi. When he had nothing to do, he would row a boat and fish in the lake. It felt like
More like a hermit.
However, this so-called hermit's view is only the view before they have close contact with Leo. Once they stand in front of Leo, in their eyes, Leo will become a ferocious beast that can bite people at any time, let alone
Once you open your mouth to speak, it may be difficult even if you can keep your body standing.
After getting the Abyss of Sin from the devil, Leo originally thought that he would only need to focus on controlling his body, but what he didn't expect was that the knowledge of the Abyss of Sin that was sealed deep in his memory would not be there anymore.
Without cutting off the connection with the abyss of sin, Leo's body still produces a force of sin every day.
Although this power of sin did not cause any harm to Leo, but was used as fuel by Leo and sent to the fire of sin to cultivate the fire of sin, the residual aura of the power of sin still remained.
In his body, the power of his blood merged into one, creating an invisible force that could penetrate people's hearts.
Under the influence of this power, even Sylvia couldn't help but tremble when she saw him, and others were even more unbearable. Some of the knights' attendants in the knights even had inexplicable strong emotions after seeing him.
Out of fear, his legs became weak and he sat down on the ground.
Because of this, Leo had to leave the Knights of Light station and came to the relatively sparsely populated shores of Lake Seravi. He lived in isolation and began to strengthen the development and control of his body's potential. He knew very well that as long as he completely controlled his
body, then the sinful aura integrated into the power of blood can also be completely controlled.
In the past two months, although his development and control of his body's potential has accelerated a lot, he has even been able to control the power of blood to spread out of the body to form a power similar to spiritual energy, and even to form substantial physical power, such as
It adheres to the surface of the body to form a blood armor, and directly condenses into a blood knight sword, etc.
The most special thing is that this blood power can also produce an enchantment-like effect. For example, if he wraps the power of blood around the Abyss Sword, then the Abyss Sword will change from two ordinary swords into two psychic swords.
Mist, if the blood power wrapped around the weapon is combined according to rune traps, crystal magic or Turing roots, etc., then these two weapons can also exert similar effects to corresponding runes, magic or witches.
The power of magic.
Although he has made great progress in developing and controlling the potential of his body, his ability to restrain the sinful aura has not weakened at all, and as the accumulation begins to increase, the aura begins to escape from the body.
As a direct result, the lakeside forest where he lived was not only devoid of birds and beasts, but also no reptiles.
As the Lady of the Lake Church was established in Toussaint, a church of the Lady of the Lake Church also began to be built on the lakeside. The location of the church was not very far from the cabin where Leo lived, and there were often some
Believers of the Lady of the Lake Church prayed in the church and then went to the lake to play.
The sinful aura on Leo's body is already very strong. Even well-trained knights will be affected, let alone ordinary people. In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, Leo will use the abyss of his body in normal times.
The walker armor was worn on the body.
However, after putting on the Abyss Walker armor, Leo felt something strange. He found that the aura of sin emanating from his body was being absorbed by the Abyss Walker armor.
At this time, he thought that his armor of the Abyss Walker was forged from a complete copy of the armor worn by the Abyss Walker of Anor Londo. Even every pattern and pattern on it was completely reproduced.
On the armor.
Although the materials are not as good as those prepared by the gods of Anor Londo for their knights, due to the addition of a large amount of psychic substances, the materials of the current armor are not much worse than the original materials.
There is no doubt that Leo's armor can also be regarded as the armor of the Abyss Walker, and it is the armor passed down when the knight returned from the abyss and received the title of Abyss Walker.
Judging from the fact that the breath of sin can now be absorbed by the replica of the Abyss Walker's armor, it is obvious that when the Abyss Walker came back from the Abyss, not only himself, but even his armor was affected by the power of the Abyss, so that
Even the replica can absorb some of the power of the abyss. The abyss of sin is also a part of the abyss. The aura of the power of sin generated by the abyss of sin can naturally be absorbed by this armor.
Because of the blocking effect of this armor, Leo was temporarily freed from the side effects of the power of sin. Even if he appeared in front of others, those who saw him would not be affected. The only trouble was that he had to wear it while walking in the abyss.
until he can completely control the power of blood.
Because of the discovery of the armor, Leo also began to wonder whether the two abyss swords that were built together with the armor could also absorb the aura of sin.
However, he was soon disappointed to find that the Great Sword of the Abyss did not have the same effect as armor. However, what was interesting was that when he used the power of blood to enchant the Great Sword of the Abyss, some of the power could be deliberately left in the Great Sword of the Abyss.
He didn't know what effect this would have on the Abyss Great Sword, but after the Abyss Great Sword accumulated a certain amount of blood power, some bloodshot-like patterns appeared on its surface, and when he used the Abyss Great Sword
