After Emperor Nefgard stood firm, he calmly tidied up his clothes, then looked at Leo and said, "I know you, Leo the Alien, the companion of the Knight of Light, a knight who is even more terrifying than the Knight of Light. ”

Leo looked at the other man indifferently, and without replying, he tugged on the reins, turned the horse's head, and headed in the direction Geralt and the others had left.

"You're such a rude fellow!" Emperor Nefgard frowned and said in a deep voice, "Aren't you afraid that I will take revenge on you?"

There was a hurried sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and it seemed that the troops of the Nilfgaard Empire were rushing towards this side after seeing their emperor released in the distance.

Leo, who was supposed to leave immediately, reined in his horse and stopped leaving, not worrying at all about the approaching Niffergard Imperial army, but calmly looked back at Emperor Nefgaard and said, "How do you plan to retaliate?"

"For example, I will send troops to Touscent. Emperor Nefgard said.

Leo looked at each other with the eyes of a fool and smiled, "If I'm not mistaken, Touscent seems to be a vassal of the Nilfgaard Empire, right?

Emperor Nefgaard's face was a little more ugly, and as Leo had said, what he had just said was indeed ridiculous.

At this time, the army of the Niffgard Empire had already come to the vicinity of the two, and the Emperor Niffgaard walked towards his army, and with the support of a knight, he turned on his horse, and the surrounding troops also put their hands on their weapons, and it seemed that as long as he gave the order, he would cut the offender in front of him to death.

However, instead of giving the order to attack, the Emperor Nefgard said, "You and the Knight of Light come to the Nefgaard Empire! ”

When Leo heard this, he smiled, did not give any response, and rode away directly, showing great contempt.

"Your Majesty, do you want to ......" At this time, the personal knight from before came to the side of Emperor Nilfgaard on horseback and asked.

"No, I don't. Emperor Nefgaard shook his head and rejected the offer, not that he didn't want to take revenge on Leo, but that he felt that if he did it, it was likely that he would be the one who would be humiliated in the end, because the attitude and confidence that Leo had shown just now made him realize that the information he had collected earlier might be true.

This also made him curious about Fran, a country he had never heard of, and at the same time he felt a sense of crisis and the need to speed up his plan.

Leo was not interested in knowing how Emperor Nilfgard was feeling at the moment, and through his extraordinary sense of smell, he galloped all the way in the direction they had left, along with the body fragrance left by Sylvia.

After walking for about forty or fifty minutes, he came to the outside of a small village, and Sylvia and the others were waiting outside the village, and when they saw Leo's figure, they all greeted Leo, and the two little girls, Angulan and Ciri, were still shaking their hands vigorously, afraid that Leo would not see them.

"How's it going?" asked Sylvia after the meeting.

"I let him go on the way, and he was picked up by his army, and no one was sent to follow," Leo briefly explained the situation, and then turned to Geralt and the others, and said, "But I don't know if he will send someone to chase him halfway, you better leave the Nefgard Empire as soon as possible." ”

"You guys?" Geralt sensitively understood the meaning of Leo's words, and asked, "Aren't you and Sylvia coming with us?"

"No!" Leo shook his head, patted the anti-magic metal box on his body where the Night God's sigh was placed, and said, "We've found what we need and are going back." ”

"Go back, Fran?" asked Geralt.

"Hmm!" Leo nodded.

At this time, Cassirer also said, "I will also be separated from you. ”

"You're going to part too?" the crowd was stunned, and soon it dawned on them that Cassirer was planning to return to the capital of the Nilfgard Empire.

So everyone objected one after another, but Ciri acted calmly and seemed to be unconcerned about the danger Cassirer would encounter after leaving, or she just wanted Cassirer to leave in her heart, because Cassirer was also a nightmare for her.

Geralt said with a worried face: "You are crazy, if you go back like this, the emperor attached to you will count the humiliation of being held hostage on you, and will also count the guilt of not catching Ciri on you, you are completely looking for death when you go back!"

Cassirer didn't retort, just smiled.

They had been with Cassirer for a long time, and they knew what the other person's personality was, and they knew that no amount of persuasion was useless, so they could only wish him good luck, and said that if they left the Nefgard Empire, they would go to the northern countries to find them.

So the group parted ways in the hamlet, and Geralt and the others headed north to Clarmont, where they were supposed to settle accounts, while Cassirer turned around and headed the way he had come, to see if he could catch up with the army of Emperor Nilfgard.

Instead of going north, Leo and Sylvia took a detour to a nearby town, Tegamo, where they decided to let Leo absorb the fragments while roaming around the territory of the Niffergard Empire, because Leo felt that if they absorbed all the fragments, the fog that had brought them into this world would appear.

Because they can control the time of leaving, Leo and Sylvia are not in a hurry, they wander around the cities of the Nefgard Empire, taking on some tasks to earn some commissions, and at the same time solving some bandits, in addition to being able to get bounties, they can also get a lot of extra income from the bandits.

After getting the money, they will use the money to buy three kinds of things, one is the various materials needed for medicine and alchemy, the other is the magic book of this world, and the last one is anti-magic metal.

The materials they bought would be made into potions and strange things with various effects by Leo as soon as possible. The best of these strange objects will be fitted to the body, and the worse ones will find an opportunity to sell them to others at a high price.

In addition, with more and more exquisite alchemy, Leo reinvented the king and queen, while retaining the power of the weapon, the recoil of the weapon was greatly reduced to the extent that Sylvia could use it, and then handed over these two weapons to Sylvia to use.

Although Sylvia has a crossbow, its power is obviously not at the same level as that of the king and the queen, when Sylvia brought these two weapons to Valjean for transformation, he was already extremely coveted for these two weapons, but unfortunately even Valjean can only be transformed, not imitated.

Now that Leo handed over these two weapons to her to use, she was naturally willing to accept them, but she was worried that Leo would not be affected in his long-range attack ability without these two weapons.

However, when she saw Leo using magic and psionic abilities such as the Crystallized Soul Gun and Leo and the Thunder Gun, she didn't think much about it.

As for the spell book, it was mainly Leo to see if he could find out what could be converted into psionic skills, but later, Sylvia found that the spells of these warlocks seemed to help her master her current power.

Prior to this, Sylvia had always been passive in how to use her power, because she found that after the power in her body was lifted, her previous methods and experience of controlling power were invalid, so she was now only able to adapt to the new power in her body, and at the same time, she was also looking for ways to control her own power.

When she was in Towcente, she found some methods, such as her ability to control herself to exude affinity and intimidation, which was of great benefit to her in ruling the entire Knights of Light, and she also mastered some spell-like powers generated by the power of witches, but these spell-like powers were not very powerful.

At that time, she also wanted to find a solution to her problem from these magic books, but at that time, her attention was all held back by other things, and she didn't have much time to read these magic books.

But now she and Leo wander around the Nifgaard Empire entirely for fun, spending a lot of time reading these books every day, and after calming down, she quickly discovered a lot of useful content in the books, so she began to value these magic books as well.

It's just that the price of these magic books is very expensive, and the commissions and loot they get for doing tasks and killing bandits are simply not enough to make them buy so many magic books, but fortunately, the wizarding artifacts made by Leo can be sold for a lot of money, barely enough to break even.

As for the anti-magic metal, it is what Leo wants to obtain, because not only does the world of Velons not have this special metal, but even in the universe, there is never a metal that can have such a great banning effect on supernatural forces such as psionic energy.

Among other things, the magical effect of this metal can be seen in the mere fact that this box made of anti-magic metal is able to completely insulate the influence of the remnants of the Night God's Sigh.

However, this metal is not without flaws, and its range of action is the biggest problem.

Leo had tried to repair the pair of anti-magic metal handcuffs that had been holding Ciri in good condition, and then clasped them on his own hands.

At this moment, he could clearly feel that his hands had become a forbidden area of transcendent power, not only the various divine powers in his body, but also the spiritual powers, could not enter that place, as if there was a wall there that could not be broken.

However, apart from his hands, psionic energy and the power of the Divine Imprint would not be affected in any way, and he could still use various powers without his hands if he wished.

The limitations of this anti-magic metal make this handcuff limited, and it also makes it impossible for this handcuff to restrain Leo, but for the warlocks and mages of this world, this pair of handcuffs is deadly, because they need to use their hands to cast spells, and losing their hands is equivalent to losing the ability to cast spells, so as long as the anti-magic metal handcuffs cuff the warlock and mage, they have no possibility of breaking free.

It is precisely because of the extremely strong imprisoning effect on warlocks and mages that most of this anti-magic metal is controlled in the official hands of the Nilfgard Empire, and the amount circulating outside is extremely rare, and even if there is, it will be bought by others, and the people who buy these things are both warlocks and mages who don't want the anti-magic metal to fall into the hands of others, as well as some organizations that are extremely hostile to warlocks and mages.

It was very difficult for Leo and Sylvia to buy this special metal as individuals, so most of the time they spent money to buy news and then obtained this metal through other means.

Leo hadn't thought of the exact use of the metal yet, but he had plated his weapon with a layer of anti-magic metal, and made some anti-magic metal arrows and daggers so that he could use them against enemies with extraordinary powers.

On the other side, Leo and Sylvia walked in the Nifgard Empire without hiding their identities, and they couldn't hide anything, the gorgeous armor on their bodies was so eye-catching that it was hard to recognize.

And when they robbed those who possessed anti-magic metal, they also did not hide their identities, so that the entire Nefgard Empire's large and small organizations knew that the Knight of Light had come here to rob the anti-magic metal, and for a while, those organizations and individuals who possessed anti-magic metal became everyone in danger, for fear of being targeted by Leo and Sylvia.

In the face of Leo and Sylvia's bad practices, some people also thought about resisting and gathered a large number of men to surround the two, but except for a few who escaped, everyone else died at the hands of the two.

Later, the local governors and troops of the Nilfgard Empire also arrested the two because of the emperor's order, and if the number of captors they sent was too small, they would be directly killed by the two, and if there were too many people, the two would avoid these people and go to other places, or wait for these people to separate and then break them down.

Soon, the governor and officials of the local government also gave up the arrest of Leo and the others, not only because they could not be arrested, but also because the losses were too much, and if they continued to die, I am afraid that they would not be able to make the entire region policing.

Therefore, they also turned a blind eye to the two of them, and even when the two entered the town, they did not think of arresting them, but let the patrolling soldiers stay away from them and not have a conflict with them.

In this way, Leo and Sylvia wandered around the territory of the Nilfgard Empire for more than ten days, bought dozens of magic books, and robbed a box of anti-magic metal, because he could not put it in the storage space, he had to put the box on the saddle of another pack horse.

And in the past ten days, Leo has also absorbed a few fragments of the Night God's sigh, and now there is only the last one left to absorb in these two days, and in this state, he also senses where the dense fog that can help them return to the world of Velon will appear.
