Although the decision to leave the manor as soon as possible was made quickly, after leaving the manor, where to live became a problem, because they are not just one or two people, if there are more than a dozen of them, ordinary hotels may not be able to accommodate them.

With so many people, even if they can live there, and so many people with obvious characteristics living together, Count Britta will probably find out soon, and then they may be trapped in endless interceptions.

"I do have a place where people can stay." At this time, Dandelion suddenly said.

Everyone looked at Dandelion, waiting for him to give his answer, but Geralt looked at Dandelion thoughtfully, seeming to have guessed the address Dandelion was going to say, and asked in a deep voice: "That place?"

no problem?"

"Of course there is no problem." Dandelion smiled confidently and said, "After all, he is dead, isn't he?"

"Speak quickly, tell me quickly, where is it?" Angoulin asked anxiously.

"Bellain Manor." Dandelion answered.

Most of the people present didn't know where Bayland Manor was, but just being called a manor in Toussaint showed that this place must be quite big.

Only Regier was slightly surprised after hearing this and said: "That seems to be the holiday estate of the Grand Dukes of Toussaint, right next to Lake Seravi."

Hearing this, those who were familiar with Dandelion looked at this fancy-dressed companion with a similar look. Angouleme even said directly: "I didn't expect you to be so powerful, uncle!"

Dandelion rarely showed embarrassment, but he did not refute everyone's speculation.

"Can you still go to Bayland Manor now?" Geralt asked in a deep voice.

"Of course." Dandelion puffed up his chest and said with great confidence.

Seeing Dandelion's affirmation, Geralt immediately thought of something and said in surprise: "Have you gone to see the Duchess? When? I remember that you have been with us since you came to Toussaint?"

"We are not together all the time. You forgot, I went out for two nights for something." Dandelion explained: "Originally Anna asked me to live in the manor, but I preferred to be with my companions, but before Anna left,

I was told that the manor has been notified and I can go there at any time."

Although the conversation between Geralt and others was a bit confusing, it was enough for Leo and Sylvia to hear some clues. Apparently, Dandelion, a handsome man who had never been in their eyes, actually had an affair with Toussaint.

The relationship between the Grand Duke and the Grand Duke is unusual, and they are so close that they can enter and leave the Grand Duke's resort estate at will.

Leo and Sylvia looked at each other at this time, and quickly exchanged views. It was obvious that they came into contact with the Grand Duke through Dandelion, and then contacted the sorceress who was the Grand Duke's advisor, which was obviously better than their previous participation in the knights.

The planning of the conference is more efficient and shorter.

This also changed their original plan to part ways with Geralt and others after they understood this matter. At least until they came into contact with the Grand Duchess, they would stay with Geralt and others.

Leo and Sylvia didn't need too many words. They only needed one look to understand each other's thoughts. At this time, Sylvia asked tentatively: "The Grand Duchess's manor is just for you to live in. Now you are taking it with you."

There are so many of us, there won’t be any trouble, right?”

Dandelion immediately shook his head and said: "No, Anna is a very nice person. She doesn't care about these things. If there is a chance, I can introduce you to each other. I believe she also wants to meet you, the Knight of Light."

Hearing this, Sylvia took advantage of the situation and said, "In that case, I'll trouble you to introduce him when the time comes."

Dandelion thought of other things, patted his chest, and said it would be on him, while the others didn't think much. Only Regier looked at Sylvia and Leo thoughtfully.

After everyone made the decision to leave Britta Manor and go to Belan Manor, other problems were easily solved. After all, Belan Manor is the Grand Duke's manor, and there will not be much security problems. Earl Britta thinks again

There are also concerns about what to do, such as directly hiring a mercenary group to attack Beland Manor.

Everyone also started to pack their things and prepare to leave. Although the survivor's family didn't understand why they were leaving again after they had just settled down, they knew very well that Geralt and others were their only life-saving straw, so they didn't dare to complain.

Honestly put away the things you just took out.

Leo planned to take advantage of this time to sell the horses and armor on hand, but Regier stopped him and said, "Sir Leo, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to sell these horses and armor like this.

These horses and armors are branded by the Chifeng Mercenary Group, and ordinary horse dealers and blacksmith shops may not dare to accept these items."

"What should we do?" Leo frowned and asked.

Regier took the initiative to help and said: "Leave it to me! I lived in Toussaint for a while before, and with some connections, I can afford these horses and armor, and I can sell them at a good price."

Leo thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Regier."

As he spoke, Leo handed the reins to Regiel.

After Regier took the reins, he led the horse and left the manor.

When Leo returned to their room, Sylvia felt a little confused and asked, "Aren't you going to sell those trophies?"

"I met Regier." Leo told Sylvia that he had just met Regier and Regier offered to help them sell their horses.

"Is his relationship with us so good?" Sylvia asked doubtfully.

"Probably... not that good!" Leo carefully recalled the learning process between him and Regiel in the past two days, and found that Regiel's attitude towards him was more like the attitude of the researchers of the Earth Federation towards special biochemicals.

He regarded him as a research subject rather than a friend, and Regier's reaction just now was obviously a little abnormal.

Sylvia guessed again: "It is the strength you and I have shown that has been recognized by him, and he has therefore regarded us as friends."

Leo thought for a moment, shook his head, and said: "Probably not. He is probably not the kind of person who values ​​strength. Otherwise, he would not have become friends with Dandelion and Angouleme."

Sylvia nodded in agreement after hearing this, and fell into deep thought again. After a while, she suddenly raised her head and said, "I know why his attitude suddenly changed."

"Why?" Leo asked.

"Because what I just said about asking Dandelion to introduce the Grand Duchess was a bit too deliberate." Sylvia said with certainty: "Regil thought we were deliberately contacting Geralt just to get through Dandelion.

As a springboard, contact with the duchess may lead to some unscrupulous behavior."

"What does this have to do with helping us sell our trophies?" Leo said in confusion.

"It's very simple. If we really want to do something to the Duchess, he feels that the two of us alone are not enough, so there must be an accomplice." Sylvia smiled and explained: "He helped you sell it.

Trophy, I'm afraid he doesn't want us to leave Geralt and the others and go outside to contact the so-called accomplices. As long as they keep us in mind, no matter how big the conspiracy is, it will be useless. So, if my guess is good, he should be among Geralt and the others.

We found someone among them to spy on us."

"I think I know who the surveillance person is?" After hearing Sylvia's words, Leo also discovered an abnormal situation outside. He saw Angoulan secretly lying on a tree.

, looked into the room here, couldn't help but smile, and said: "We should explain the situation to them directly to avoid misunderstandings."

With that said, he stood up and prepared to talk to Geralt about their situation.

"No!" Sylvia stopped him and said, "We don't have much to do during this period anyway, so we can find something to do to avoid boredom."

Hearing Sylvia's words, Leo instinctively wanted to object, because his reason reminded him all the time that such an approach would only create chaos, but the ordinary people's emotions that Leo had just become familiar with agreed with Sylvia's suggestion.

The proposal, and emotions seemed to take over, suppressing the idea of ​​explaining the situation to Geralt.

In this way, Leo and Sylvia pretended not to know anything, packed their bags and came outside the house.

Everyone else had already packed their things. After Geralt asked about Regier's whereabouts, he said nothing and asked Dandelion to lead the way to Beland Manor.

The location of Bayland Manor is right next to Lake Serave. Because it is a holiday estate, the surrounding scenery is naturally extraordinary. In order to avoid being ruined by others, the Duke of Toussaint at the time used the fairy in the lake as an excuse.

, promulgated a decree prohibiting the reclamation of land and the establishment of plantations next to Lake Seravi.

It is precisely because of this decree that the landform of the primeval forest around Lake Seravi is still maintained, making it the preferred tourist destination for locals.

However, although Lake Selawe is able to maintain its original landscape very well, it also makes the forests around Lake Selawe a habitat for those monsters.

Because the water veins around Lake Seravi are developed, and various small rivers and streams flow criss-cross on the land at the foot of Mount Gaogong. After cultivating cold-resistant grapes, the area was also developed into vineyards. Originally, it inhabited the

The monsters here were either eliminated or driven away. Except for a small number of these monsters that migrated deeper into the Gaogong Mountains, most of them moved to the area around Lake Seravi that was preserved due to the ban.

Down into the primeval forest.

Naturally, the locals knew that they could safely pass through the forest along the perimeter of the Duke's Manor and reach the shores of Lake Seravi, because the Duke's Manor would occasionally ask the Duke's Guards to clean up monsters in the manor and nearby forests.

But there are exceptions to everything. There are always some outsiders who are reluctant to give up the commission, hire locals to take safe roads, and risk crossing the city themselves. These outsiders are lucky enough to escape alive, but those who are unlucky just die.

Under siege by forest monsters, you become the food of monsters.

Now Leo, Geralt and others are such stingy outsiders. Like their predecessors, they encountered many monsters not long after entering the forest.

However, this was not because they were stingy with the commission they paid to the locals for guiding the way, nor was it because they were asking for trouble by deliberately passing through a forest inhabited by a large number of monsters. It was entirely because Dandelion arrived at the forest next to Lake Seravi before the team arrived.

At that time, it meant that he knew a shortcut and did not need to take the long way around and take the road next to the forest. Instead, he went directly through the forest and reached the Duke's Belan Manor.

At that time, Geralt, who knew Dandelion very well, said that it was unreliable and that he should take a safer path. However, Angoulan later saw some people from the Chifeng Mercenary Group in a nearby town, which made everyone think that they should take the path in the forest.

A shortcut may be more suitable. Even though Leo and Sylvia have repeatedly stated that they are capable of dealing with the Chifeng mercenary group, everyone still feels that it is better to take a shortcut in the forest.

After all, there are only two people, Leo and Sylvia. If the Chifeng mercenary group has a large number of people and the two of them cannot take care of them, once a war breaks out, the family who is following them may suffer.

However, after entering the forest and encountering several monster attacks, everyone began to regret why they did not choose to take the high road, but believed the lies of Dandelion, who had always been unreliable, and took some shortcut.

"This is not the way to go. Let me use a witchcraft to solve this problem!" After splitting a giant centipede, Leo's mental network checked the surroundings and found that there were many monsters waiting for an opportunity to observe.

, then turned around and said to Geralt.

"Will that witchcraft cause a lot of damage?" Geralt said worriedly.

Leo explained: "No, it will only scare away those monsters."

Geralt nodded and agreed to Leo's proposal. Then Leo asked everyone not to look at him, and then used the power of nightmare to adjust the energy aura on his body, and the shape of the stone throne emerged in his mind.

For a moment, the surrounding atmosphere seemed to freeze. All the rustling sounds of the monsters moving disappeared. Then the ground shook slightly, and everyone could feel the monsters around them frantically moving away from them as if fleeing.

Unlike Cassirer, Milva, Angouleme and other ordinary people who can only feel an invisible power emanating from Leo, Geralt, as a source warlock, can clearly feel the terrifying aura from Leo.

, this kind of terrifying aura is beyond anything he has ever seen. Even the most powerful warlock he has ever seen is as tiny as an ant in front of this terrifying aura. He can even feel that this terrifying aura not only brings

The pressure on the mind and soul, even if it is felt for a long time, the mind and soul will be distorted by this terrifying aura.

However, Leo quickly dispelled the illusion of the stone throne in his mind, relieved the energy fluctuations in his body, and returned to normal together.

At this time, everyone sat on the ground regardless of their image. Even Sylvia was affected and had to hold on to the saddle to prevent her body from falling to the side. Geralt touched the ground with his sword and looked at him with a complicated expression.
