It has been more than two months since the monster cleanup incident in the Sansredo swamp, and at first people were still skeptical of the news, but then some brave people went to the swamp to investigate, and found that it was really like the news from the Bockland Palace, and all the monsters in the Sansredo swamp had disappeared.

For a time, the entire Towcent was a sensation, and not only the people, but even the aristocratic circles paid attention to the Sansredo swamp.

The reason why they are so concerned about the swamp is actually because of profit.

The Sansredo Marsh is the largest swamp wetland in Towcente, and is home to a large number of peat, herbs and rare animals, but the commercial value of the area has not been exploited due to the large number of monsters that inhabit it.

But now that all the monsters in the swamp have been cleared, it means that the danger here is gone, and the rich resources here can be utilized.

For a time, the nobles and wealthy merchants of Bowland sent people to the swamp to investigate the location of various resources, and also borrowed various influences to test the development of the swamp to the duchess.

Compared to the magnates of Tousente, who were all focused on the big cake of the Sansredo Swamp, the ordinary people of the folk did not seem to know what kind of changes would happen to their lives after the swamp monsters were cleaned up, and they were more interested in the heroic stories about Sylvia and the Knights of Light.

Because of the deliberate promotion of the duchess, most of the credit for clearing the swamp monsters was attributed to Sylvia, coupled with the overwhelming victory of the knights led by Sylvia in the war with Belhavin, which suddenly made Sylvia's prestige greatly increased again, and her hidden status of Touscent has left the nobles of Touscent far away, and some people have called her a saint, and some people even proposed to the duchess to canonize the title of Sylvia.

Although Sylvia gained great popularity among the people of Touscent and was loved by the people, her reputation in the nobility circle was not very high.

Because Sylvia, a foreigner, rose so quickly in Towcente that in less than two months she had become a major force in Towcent, and that she had won the coveted love among the common people, which made them feel extremely jealous.

What's more, Sylvia completely ignored the privileges of the nobles, and when she led the knights to patrol the border, she stood on the side of the weak in disputes between the nobles and the commoners several times, and severely punished the nobles, including the descendants of several great nobles, and recently it was rumored that she was re-investigating some previous cases of civilian deaths, in which some nobles played a very dishonorable role.

All kinds of circumstances made the vast majority of the nobles in Touscent extremely suspicious of Sylvia, and they all thought that continuing to let Sylvia go on like this would ruin them, so they secretly used various means to slander Sylvia in front of the duchess, saying that the knights formed by Sylvia and her reputation among the people had begun to endanger the status of the duchess, so as to provoke 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, and every day she was still tired of being with her poet lover after taking care of her daily business.

They therefore suspected that the poet named Dandrien was playing tricks, that the poet was good friends with the witcher nicknamed Bravikan's butcher, and that the witcher had a good relationship with Sylvia, and it seemed to them that Dandrion must have blown away all the rumors they had worked so hard to create.

Therefore, they felt that if they wanted to deal with Sylvia, they had to get rid of Dandrien first, so without Dandrien knowing anything, he was assigned to the side of Sylvia's henchmen by the nobles, and became the first target to deal with.

Although Sylvia didn't know that Dandrion was implicated by herself, she knew that the nobles of Touscent were consciously targeting her, such as not only raising the price of some daily supplies, but also consciously stopping the supply, and even in order to suppress the development momentum of the Knights of Light, she deliberately gave up tasks such as guarding the caravan to several other wandering knights, and secretly supported the wandering knights to fight against her.

It's just that these nobles didn't know that their methods might be able to have a little effect if they were placed before the Battle of Belhaven, but after experiencing that war, seeing the strength of the Knights of Light with their own eyes and seeing Sylvia's heroic appearance on the battlefield, several leaders of the Wandering Knights could no longer have other ideas, and soon after returning to Tousente, they all secretly joined the Church of the Fairies of the Lake and became a member of the church.

Therefore, when these nobles sent a large amount of supplies to the station of the Wandering Knights in the first step, these materials were sold to the Knights of Light at the original price by the various Wandering Knights.

Although the caravan escort mission of nobles and big merchants is the main income of the Knights of Light, the loss of this income will be a big financial hole for the Knights of Light, but this financial loophole did not have any impact on the Knights of Light in a short period of time, because after the First World War of Belhaven, the Knights of Light seized a lot of property, the duchess's reward and the dividends paid by Belhaven on the ransom, even if the Knights of Light did not have the income from this escort mission, they could easily support it for a year and a half.

And Sylvia did not let this financial hole persist because she would leave soon, she not only established the Knights' exclusive caravan, but also took advantage of the fact that before others decided to start with the resources in the swamp, she first asked Leo to use the spirit net to explore the location of several peat deposits, and bought them as the private property of the Knights, and also recruited a lot of pharmacists, as the exclusive pharmacists of the Knights, responsible for collecting and planting herbs in the swamp.

With these inheritances, even if she leaves, as long as the successor is not a fool, she will not make a mess of the Knights.

In order to avoid some careerists in the Order after her departure, 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 after that, secretly brought the Duchess to the Knights to participate in the Knights' meeting, which was a formal telling to the Knights that the Knights of Light would become the Duchess's direct knights after she left.

The Knights are naturally reluctant to leave Sylvia, but they are also happy to be able to become the Duchess's direct Knights, because this represents that they are truly out of the embarrassing state of wandering knights, which seems to be beautiful but actually difficult, and in a certain way, every official knight of them can be become a knight, and they can be regarded as a member of the nobility, even if it is the lowest level of nobility.

It was also because of the secret appearance of the duchess that the abnormal fluctuations within the knights due to some rumors created by the nobles quickly calmed down.

Compared to Sylvia's radiance in Towcente, Leo as a companion is much more low-key, except for the two things of surveying the peat mines in the swamp for Sylvia and recruiting Aalto to become a warlock advisor to the Order, he spends the rest of his time in the hut that Sylvia built for him on the edge of Lake Seravi, and when he is not happy, he will row a small boat to fish in the lake, feeling more like a hermit.

However, this so-called hermit view is only the view before they have not come into close contact with Leo, once they stand in front of Leo, then Leo will become a fierce beast that will devour people at any time in their eyes, let alone speak, even if they can keep their bodies standing, I am afraid it will be difficult.

After the incident of getting the abyss from the demon's mouth, Leo thought that he only needed to focus on the control of his body next, but what he didn't expect was that the knowledge of the abyss that he had sealed in the depths of his memory did not sever the connection with the abyss, and Leo's body still generated a force of karma every day.

Although this power of karma did not cause any harm to Leo, but was used as fuel by Leo to send it to the fire of karma to cultivate it, the remnants of the power of karma still remained in his body, and it merged with the power of his blood, creating an invisible force that could penetrate people's hearts.

Under the effect of this force, even Sylvia couldn't help but tremble when she saw him, and the others were even more unbearable, and some knight squires of the knight order inexplicably had a strong fear after seeing him, and sat on the ground with weak feet.

Because of this, Leo had to leave the Knights of Light's residence and come to the relatively sparsely populated shores of Lake Seravi, living in isolation, and began to strengthen the development and control of his physical potential, he knew very well that as long as he completely controlled his body, then the aura of sinful karma that was integrated into the power of blood could also be completely controlled.

It's just that 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 diffuse out of his body to form a power similar to psionic energy, and even be able to form substantial physical power, such as attaching to the surface of his body to form a blood armor, directly condensing into a blood knight sword, and so on.

The most special point is that this blood power can also produce an effect similar to enchantment, for example, if he wraps the blood power around the Abyss Greatsword, then the Abyss Greatsword will change from two ordinary greatswords to two psionic mist, if the blood power wrapped around the weapon is combined according to rune traps, crystallization magic or Turing roots, etc., then these two weapons can also exert a power similar to the corresponding rune, magic or witchcraft.

Although he has made great progress in the development and control of the potential of his body, the convergence of that sin karma aura has not weakened, and as the accumulation began to increase, that aura also began to escape outside the body, directly causing the lakeside forest where he lived not only to be free of birds and beasts, but also to have no reptiles.

With the establishment of the Church of the Fairies of the Lake in Towcente, a sanctuary of the Church of the Fairies of the Lake began to be built on the shores of the lake, and the location of the church was not very far from the cottage where Leo lived, and it was not uncommon for some members of the Church of the Fairies of the Lake to come to the lake after praying in the church.

The aura of sinful karma 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 wears the Abyss Walker armor on his body in normal times.

It's just that after putting on the Abyssal Walker armor, Leo sensed something abnormal, and he found that the aura of sin emanating from his body was being absorbed by the Abyssal Walker armor.

At this time, he thought that his Abyssal Walker's armor was completely copied and forged from the armor worn by Arnornd Long's Abyssal Walker, and even every pattern and pattern on it was completely engraved on the armor.

Although the materials are not as good as those prepared by the gods of Arnornd for their knights, because of the addition of a large amount of psionic substances, the materials of this armor are not much worse than the original materials.

There is no doubt that Leo's armor can also be considered the armor of the Abyssal Walker, and it is the armor that the knight passed down when he received the title of Abyssal Rambler after returning from the Abyss.

Judging from the fact that the aura of sinful karma can be absorbed by the replica of the Abyssal Rambler's armor now, it is obvious that when the Abyss Rambler came back from the abyss, not only himself, but even his armor was also affected by the power of the abyss, so that even the replica can also have the effect of absorbing some of the power of the abyss, and the abyss is also a part of the abyss, and the aura of the power of the abyss produced by the abyss can naturally also be absorbed by this armor.

Because of the blocking effect of this armor, Leo is temporarily free from the effects of the side effects of the power of sinful karma, even if he appears in front of people, the people who see him will not be affected, the only trouble is that he must wear the armor of the Abyss Walker until he is fully able to control the power of blood.

Because of the discovery of the armor, Leo also began to wonder if the two abyssal swords on his body that were made together with the armor could also absorb the aura of sinful karma.

However, he was soon disappointed to find that the Abyssal Greatsword did not have the same effect as armor, but the interesting thing was that when he used the power of blood to enchant the Abyssal Greatsword, he was able to deliberately leave some of the power in the Abyss Greatsword.

He didn't know what effect this would have on the Abyss Greatsword, but after the Abyss Greatsword accumulated a certain amount of blood power, some blood-like patterns appeared on its surface, and he became more relaxed when he used the Abyss Greatsword, as if the two Abyssal Greatswords were an extension of his body.
