Chapter 778: Seven Days
Leo, who regained his consciousness, looked at the dust on his body, and felt the state of his body again, judging from the thickness of the dust and the degree of energy consumption in his body, his consciousness did not leave for too long, it should only be about an hour.
However, he was sure that he had been in that temple for at least three hours, which undoubtedly showed that the time of the two worlds was not the same.
Leo didn't know if the portal magic circle he repaired had successfully transferred the temple out of that subspace and to where they were going, and the only thing he was sure of was that the portal magic circle was working properly.
It's just that when he recalls the details of the portal magic array, he finds that his memory seems to have been erased, and he doesn't remember anything.
What's even more bizarre is that he just doesn't remember the portal magic circle, the ancient elven language he learned from Ethrius in the temple, the Turing root he researched to repair the portal magic circle, and the method of combining the ancient elven language, etc., have not disappeared, and are still firmly recorded in his heart.
"What's going on?" Leo couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in his heart, wondering why only the memory of the portal magic array was erased, but this doubt did not last long, he quickly thought of a reason, his face showed a sudden look, and muttered to himself: "It turns out that it is because of the coordinates." ”
Although that portal magic array is the product of combining two mysterious power words, it has great research value, but for the existence of the level of gods, they are obviously insignificant, what really matters is the information about the destination coordinates on that portal magic array.
If, as Ethrius said, the goddess Meritelli divided a promised land for these elves, then that promised land is likely to be very close to the goddess Meritelli, how can such an important place be known to a human being, and it will become a logical thing to erase or ban Leo's memory.
After Leo figured this out, he didn't dwell on the lost memory anymore, he focused on himself again, found a suitable place to sit and rest, and waited for his energy to recover.
Although he just left this world with his spirit and went to the subspace, this process consumed a lot of energy, mental energy, and spiritual energy, so much that Leo suspected that he would suddenly return to his body from the temple without warning, completely because of excessive energy and mental energy.
However, Leo didn't just sit still, he also used the spirit net to probe the situation in this underground ruin space.
After scanning it two or three times, Leo found that there was no portal magic circle here, but there were many underground passages here, and there might be dead ends in these underground passages, but they could also lead to other places.
In addition, just below this ruin, there are also places to explore, such as an arched ruin not far from him, which is actually the roof of a palace, but the palace is buried by mud and rubble, and it does not collapse inside, and judging from the architectural style of the roof, it should belong to a very important building.
In addition, in a pool formed by underground water not far away, Leo's spiritual network sensed a lot of good things.
After a short rest, Leo stood up and began to explore the entire underground elven ruins centered on this ruin, as he had planned.
Time passed little by little, and it had been about seven days since Leo entered the ruins of the underground elves.
Both Geralt and Regiel had approached Sylvia a few times during this time, worried that something had happened to Leo underground, and thought that someone should be sent down to check on the situation, but Sylvia stopped them.
Sylvia, who was supposed to be most anxious about Leo's safety, seemed very calm, she had great trust in Leo's strength, and didn't believe that anything would go wrong with Leo, so Geralt and Regier didn't have to worry.
Geralt and Regiel seem to have seen Leo as friends, so they are very concerned about Leo's comfort, and this time they are dissuaded by Sylvia, but they still say that if there is no news from Leo in two days, they will go down to look for it.
Sylvia did not object, but agreed with their proposal, saying that she would be with her when the time came.
After seeing Geralt and Regiel away, Sylvia returns to what she was working on.
After she was knighted as a knight of the Touscent, the formation of the Knights of Light became very smooth, and by now the Knights of Light had more than thirty knights and more than a hundred knight squires, surpassing several other wandering knights in terms of size.
In the eyes of outsiders, the expansion speed of the Knights of Light is too fast, and there will definitely be financial problems, but in fact, Sylvia is now very rich in funds, and there is a large amount of money obtained from the sale of healing potions as the initial capital of the Knights in the early stage, and then Frigila handed over some high-reward tasks to the Knights of Light under the instruction of the Duchess, so that the Knights of Light soon entered a state of breakeven.
Now, in addition to leading several knights of the Order to go out on patrol every day when necessary, appearing in front of the ordinary people of Touscent, and dealing with a few monsters and bandits that harass the people, she spends her time in the Knights' residence to deal with the formation of the Church of the Fairies in the Lake.
Although the biggest obstacle to forming the Church of the Fairies in the Lake has disappeared with the Duchess's tacit approval, there are still many things that need to be done to successfully establish the church and survive after her departure, such as how to choose the right clergy.
Her annoyance was not because of the scarcity of suitable clergy, but because the wandering knights who took the initiative to join the Order of Light all believed in the five virtues of knighthood, and all of them were very suitable to become clergy of the Church of the Immortals in the Lake.
Three days ago, under the pretext of being inspired by the Fairy in the Lake, she handed over the canon of the Fairy in the Lake to her subordinates to study based on the various canons of the Viron World Church and the knightly rules of the Knights.
Sylvia didn't dare to say that this canon was infallible and had no loopholes, but she was very confident that it was better than any church in the world now.
After the canon was written, Sylvia handed it over to Furringilla to find someone to copy it, and the canon was shown to Furringira and the Duchess as soon as possible.
After reading the canon, both of them had no doubts about Sylvia's claim to have received the revelation of the Nymph of the Lake, because in their opinion, there was absolutely no one in the world who could write such a perfect canon in such a short time.
Even the learned Regier was shocked by the canon when he saw it, believing it to be a miracle that could be used as a model for almost all the churches in the world.
After the knights of the Knights of Light read this canon, they expressed their willingness to join the Church of the Immortals in the Lake and contribute to the formation and development of the Church of the Immortals in the Lake the next day.
Sylvia was able to easily discern who were true and who were false by learning the methods she had learned from the Orthodox Church, and she now needed to select the right people from among these true believers to form the initial church framework.
While Sylvia was having a headache with the formation of the basic framework of the church, there were also people who had a headache with her, such as the leaders of the wandering knights.
Although the appearance of the Knights of Light has not yet posed a threat to those wandering knights, they can all see that the Knights of Light have become the darlings of the Duchess's eyes, especially the escort missions that they all coveted before, all of them were handed over to the Knights of Light at the behest of the Duchess, and they all felt that they should do something, lest they completely lose the power to fight back when the Knights of Light really grew up.
So, the leaders of their knights secretly gathered together to discuss something, but when they discussed things, they didn't know that their every move was under Sylvia's surveillance, and it was not a person who watched them, but a bird transformed by Sylvia's witch power.
In this regard, Sylvia did not take them seriously at all, if it weren't for the fact that she needed an enemy to cooperate with her to create this confrontation situation and reassure the Duchess, she would have already taken action to kill those knight leaders.
Now there are only a few people in the whole Towson who make Sylvia a little worried, such as Regier, Geralt, Fringilla, etc., in order to prevent these people from making trouble for themselves, so she also gave these people something to do.
For example, Regiel has a very strong interest in learning new knowledge, so Sylvia deliberately wrote two language books of the Kingdom of England and the Kingdom of Fran and gave them to Regil.
These two new languages made Regiel feel very excited, because he once thought that he had learned all the knowledge in this world, and now the appearance of these two new languages has regenerated his long-lost freshness, so he often studied these two languages alone in his room at Beran Manor during this time.
Geralt and Furringilla were better dealt with, and Sylvia learned through observation and other means that Furringira seemed to be instructed by some organization to prevent Geralt from leaving Towson as much as possible.
Because every time Geralt said that she would brave the wind and snow outside to leave Towcent and continue to look for Ciri, she would use the excuse that Geralt's companions could not safely pass through the mountains blocked by the wind and snow, so that Geralt himself would discourage the idea of leaving.
Sylvia also discovers that Geralt and Fringira seem to have a crush on each other, but for some unknown reason, their relationship has stopped at verbal flirting and some innocuous flirtation.
So she deliberately created some opportunities for the two, so that the relationship between the two developed rapidly, and soon evolved into a relationship between the two, and they were entangled with each other most of the time, which also made her less constrained.
At this moment, in the ruins of the underground elves of Bowcrane, there was a sudden commotion in the place where the mutant blood tribes lived, because an uninvited guest broke in with extremely violent means in the place where they were entrenched.
I saw that on the ruin wall where there were only a few cracks before, a huge hole had been opened from the other side at this moment, and those splashed rubble hit the body of the mutant blood clan, as if they had been shot by a crossbow arrow, and all the bodies became pitted, and several mutant blood clans were even beaten into a sieve on the spot, although they did not die, but it is probably not possible to completely recover from such a serious injury in a short period of time.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps in the huge dust generated by the bursting of the wall, and a ragged man with a layer of blood-like mist around his body walked out of the cave behind, standing in front of the mutant blood clans, and lazily looked around.
This person is Leo who has been exploring the underground elf ruins during this time, in fact, he should have explored the underground elf ruins three days ago, but when he explored the ruins of the last palace with an anti-magic force field, he encountered a large number of monsters, among these monsters, not only have monsters such as the Strange Monster, the Fenter Monster, and the Howling Monster, but he also encountered a demon here.
This demon does not refer to those monsters, but a real demon, a demon with extraordinary strength, extremely high intelligence, in human form, but for some reason he seems to be trapped in that palace and cannot leave.
This demon not only has great power, but also has extraordinary control over people's hearts, he seems to have mastered some kind of ability to easily see through people's hearts, can know what Leo wants at the first sight of Leo, and also knows Leo's character, so he likes it, wants to make some deals with Leo, trying to get Leo to help him leave.
It's just that he sees Leo's character and knows what Leo wants, but he doesn't know that those are just the superficial characters produced by Leo after he obtains normal human emotions, and he doesn't know that Leo enjoys the process of getting things more, not the things themselves, not to mention that he sees that what Leo wants is just a superficial idea.
It wasn't until Leo deliberately pretended to be attracted by his offer and came up to him, looking like he was ready to make a deal with him, that he really saw Leo's thoughts at this moment, and that idea was to beat him to death.
After that, things went according to Leo's idea, Leo and this demon came to a real life-and-death fight, any negligence during the battle will lead to death, and the final result is naturally Leo killing the demon.
However, the demon did not make Leo feel better, and before he died, he inspired the arrangements he had left in the palace all these years, causing the palace to collapse and bury Leo in the ground.
