Because of previous experiences, the last remaining page of Night God's Sigh was absorbed smoothly. Leo's spiritual energy did not increase much, but the power of nightmares increased a lot, but Leo felt the power of nightmares.

The growth of power is still far from the limit, as if the star map of the Origin Nebula on his back is a bottomless pit, and the huge nightmare power generated by the broken pages of Night God's Sigh is like a stone dropped into the river, unable to make any waves.

.

Leo didn't know if his current situation was normal, but he was sure that his situation had never happened before, because according to all the people he saw who had been exposed to the knowledge of the Thirteen Madman Ancient Gods, they all went crazy in the end.

Damn, I have never heard of books being absorbed into some kind of power.

After he calmed down the surge of nightmare power, Leo did not put on the armor immediately. Instead, he tried his best to control the breath of sin in his body and asked Sylvia to check his back to see if there were any patterns on his back.

Change. As a result, Sylvia told him that the pattern had not changed at all, it just had more stars.

"There are three days left!" Leo said suddenly, wearing armor.

"Three days?" Sylvia was stunned for a moment, realized something, and said, "Is it the thick fog that took us back?"

"Yeah!" Leo nodded, then pointed to the south and said, "The location should be on the edge of the Golden Tower City, the capital of the Nilfgaard Empire."

Hearing Leo's words, Sylvia couldn't help but smile and said: "It seems that the Nilfgaardian Emperor is going to have insomnia these days."

Two days later, just as Sylvia said, the Golden Tower City of the Nilfgaard Empire began to impose martial law, and rumors began to spread in the city about His Majesty the Emperor's insomnia. The source of all these reactions turned out to be just because of someone.

Two people are approaching the city of golden towers.

Soon the information about Sylvia and Leo fell on the desks of various organizations in the Nilfgaard Empire. When they saw the information handed down below, everyone's attention fell on the Light.

With Knight Sylvia, not only what happened in Toussaint, but also the encounter with the noble guards pretending to be city bandits on the road was recorded. There is no doubt that such a record is comparable to any country.

Called perfect.

However, what puzzles everyone is that even if this Knight of Light is so powerful, it will not make the famous iron-blooded Emperor so nervous.

It is precisely because of this doubt that some smart people's attention has shifted from the dazzling Knight of Light to the unknown companion of the Knight of Light.

However, intelligence collected from various channels showed that this knight, who was also wearing a gorgeous armor, did not seem to have any impressive achievements. He did not appear when facing the noble guards pretending to be bandits.

An ordinary knight who can rely on the protection of the Knight of Light.

However, this doubt soon disappeared, because someone from the Emperor's Guard revealed a piece of news to the outside world, that is, the iron-blooded Emperor was actually kidnapped by the companion of the Knight of Light, and after the kidnapping, there was no pursuit.

Revenge is completely contrary to His Majesty's code of conduct.

Under this circumstance, they successively obtained some information from other channels that ordinary people could not obtain. Only then did they know that the man hidden behind the light of the Knight of Light was a real terrifying monster, and they also understood why

His Majesty the Emperor would be so nervous, because if the rumors were true, then it would not be difficult for that person to break into the palace and kill the emperor.

The strength shown by Leo also made some people think carefully. They thought they might be able to cooperate with Leo.

Among the people who were tempted, there was a noble who couldn't help but take action and secretly tried to get in touch with the other party. However, the person he sent out was directly killed by the other party, and the next day, the noble's family was hanged.

In the Millennium Square, this also reminded everyone of the ruthlessness and iron-bloodedness of His Majesty the Emperor, and all the little thoughts that had just arisen were suppressed.

Leo and Sylvia didn't know what kind of commotion their marching south caused in the Golden Tower City, nor did they know that an arrogant guy they killed caused a noble family to be hanged. At this moment, they

I was walking leisurely south, and soon arrived at the outskirts of the Golden Tower City.

Originally, they thought that they would definitely encounter many troops from the Nilfgaard Empire to intercept them, but the result surprised them. They walked smoothly to the outskirts of the Golden Tower City without encountering any obstacles, which was quite surprising.

They felt strange.

But strangely enough, they followed their plan and did not enter the Golden Tower City. Instead, they turned a corner and walked towards a royal hunting ground next to the Golden Tower City.

The emperor in the palace was slightly relieved that they did not enter the city of golden towers, but he was also puzzled as to why they went to the hunting ground, because in his opinion, Leo and Sylvia's every move should have something to do with it.

The purpose of the two people's long journey here is definitely not just to visit the hunting ground, there must be other purposes.

So, he secretly ordered the empire's spies to follow them and see what Leo and Sylvia wanted to do.

Other people in the Golden Tower City had the same thoughts as the emperor, and were puzzled by the two men's actions. They were also curious about the purpose of the two going to the hunting ground, and also sent some people to the hunting ground to investigate the situation.

The abilities of these stalkers were of varying levels, so it was naturally impossible to escape Leo's mental network. Regarding these stalkers, Leo was too lazy to deal with them. After reaching the depths of the mountainous area of ​​the hunting ground and the location he sensed, he stopped.

He came down and made a simple rest camp with Sylvia, because according to his estimation, the white mist would not appear until at least night.

Their behavior made the snoopers feel a little puzzled, because from all appearances, they seemed to be camping, and there was nothing unusual about them.

Time passed little by little, and most of the snoopers retreated because they did not find anything useful. Only a few people still stayed in the hunting ground, quietly watching Leo and the others sitting leisurely beside the campfire, roasting.

Eating food and drinking wine.

It soon became dark. Due to the temperature difference between morning and evening, some mist began to appear in the hunting forest. Although these mist appeared suddenly, it was not a big deal and no one noticed it.

Changes in fog.

At this time, Leo and Sylvia, who had caught their attention, stood up from the campfire, walked to their horses, got on their horses, followed Sylvia and handed the reins to Leo.

It seemed like she wanted Leo to take her away.

This behavior seemed a bit strange in the eyes of the snoopers, but they didn't think much about it, thinking that it was just a habit between the two of them.

Immediately afterwards, the surrounding fog suddenly thickened rapidly, and soon it was impossible to see anything. As for the figures of Sylvia and Leo in front, they were also wrapped in the fog, and only the light of some bonfires could be vaguely seen.

Seeing this scene, everyone suddenly had an idea in their minds. They felt that the reason why Leo and Sylvia came here was to wait for this thick fog.

Although some people want to go to the campfire to check the situation, they know better that walking around in such a dense fog is asking for death. The best way is to stay in place and wait for the fog to dissipate.

So they still suppressed the emotion of exploring and patiently waited for the fog to dissipate. As time went by, the fog finally faded and dispersed, and at the bonfire in front of them, the two people they were monitoring disappeared.

, and their horses were also missing.

In surprise, they immediately rushed over to check the situation. The people who stayed here were all veterans of tracking. They all knew each other. After greeting each other, they checked around the campfire. They were all surprised to find

No matter how they searched, they couldn't find any trace of Leo and Sylvia's departure.

Logically speaking, two horses carrying heavy loads should leave a large number of hoofprints on the soft forest soil, just like the series of footprints on the way here, but now there are no such footprints, which is contrary to common sense.

It was Leo and Sylvia who disappeared without leaving any trace of their departure.

"Could they fly?" someone couldn't help but guess.

Everyone couldn't help but roll their eyes at the man. It was possible that Leo and Sylvia could fly, because from the intelligence point of view, both of them seemed to have spell-like abilities, but the horses under their crotches were not able to fly.

Monsters can only fly away with two horses carrying two loaded items, but even large flying monsters such as basilisks and griffins cannot do this.

"Where's the portal?" someone else said.

Others also shook their heads. Everyone present had seen what it would be like to use the portal. The surrounding things would definitely be sucked towards the portal, leaving unique traces of the portal on the ground, which were bigger than horse hoof prints.

Be obvious.

After checking several times and finding nothing useful, the spies returned to their respective masters and reported the situation. In the end, they did not give a useful answer to the disappearance of the two people, and the matter became a mystery.

Mystery.

The disappearance of Sylvia and Leo gradually spread to the north, to Toussaint. Both the members of the Knights of Light and the priests of the Fairy Church of the Lake believed that Sylvia and Leo should be

He was taken into her Hall of Valor by the Lake Fairy.

For a time, the hunting ground outside the Golden Tower City also became a holy place for the Church of the Lady of the Lake. Many believers of the Lady of the Lake will follow Sylvia and Leo's southward journey when conditions permit.

route, a pilgrimage to the hunting ground, and Sylvia and Leo gradually turned into a legend because of their extremely mysterious coming and going, and the magical achievements they established during that time.

Leo and Sylvia, who were already in the thick fog, didn't know whether they would become legends after leaving that world. They were more focused on the things in front of them at the moment. As they drove forward, they quickly disappeared from the thick fog.

I walked out of the fog and returned to the dead forest of Mount Lobe.

However, it is no longer appropriate to call this forest the Forest of Death, because there are countless plant-shaped monsters that they encountered at that time that can imitate other people standing in the forest.

Now these monsters seemed to be looking for something. When Leo and Sylvia walked out of the thick fog, they immediately noticed it and turned here in unison, revealing various ferocious faces one by one.

With an expression on his face, he rushed towards them.

Sylvia wanted to rush out on horseback and kill these monsters, but was blocked by Leo. Leo directly took out several mechanical grenades he made in Toussaint from the storage space.

Then he threw it at these monsters. The grenade exploded instantly in the air, and the strong mechanical force threw out all the tiny saw blades on the grenade, cutting these monsters wantonly.

These saw blades are not ordinary saw blades. The saw blades are also engraved with soul bonfire runes that have a strong effect on the soul.

As Leo expected, all the plant monsters cut by the saw blades were instantly replaced regardless of the size of their injuries, and then the souls blurred into a gray mist emerged from the bodies of these monsters, and the souls of the saw blades were bonfires.

Attracted by the runes, they rushed towards it like moths to a flame, and soon turned into soul crystal stones.

In less than a moment, all the plant monsters that could be seen turned into soul crystal stones.

Leo used his spiritual power to grab the soul crystal stones from the ground, collected them together, and put them in the pocket on his horse. Then he used his spiritual net to check the surrounding situation, pointed in one direction, and said: "Let's go

Come on! Over there."

The two drove their horses and walked slowly in the direction determined by Leo's spiritual network. Although they encountered some monsters on the way, all of them died under Sylvia's spear.

After walking for about ten minutes, the plants in the forest ahead began to look a little different. They were no longer full of all kinds of plants that I had never seen before, like the dead forest before. Instead, the plants here were some common plants in Velen Continent.

, and among the dense trees, you can also see a road that has been abandoned for a long time.

When the two of them drove their horses onto the road, they felt something unusual behind them. Then they turned their heads and looked over. They saw that the dead forest where they were before them had disappeared, and the forest behind them had also changed back to...

Normal state.

Seeing all this, a look of nostalgia suddenly appeared on Sylvia's face, and she turned to Leo and asked: "Do we still have a chance to go back there?"

"Maybe!" Leo didn't have a definite answer. As if he suddenly thought of something, he got off the horse and carefully checked the items stored on the horse.
