The cultivation method of a Life Knight was considered a top secret in this world.
Even among nobles, only a small group of people could obtain this legacy.
This could be seen from the experiences of Chen Heng's previous self.
Chen Heng's previous self came from the Hatim family, which was one of the most powerful families in the Makdo Kingdom.
However, even so, it was incredibly difficult to obtain the legacy of life energy in the Hatim family, and one had to go through many trials.
As for Chen Heng's previous self, he had been directly eliminated in the first level.
From this, it could be seen how difficult it was to obtain.
If even the Hatim family's people were like this, there was no need to even mention others.
For others, obtaining the cultivation method of Life Force was an extremely difficult task in itself.
So, since this group of young men had a way to obtain the inheritance of Life Energy, then it was undoubtedly a great thing for them.
It was because of this that these youths treasured this opportunity. Many of them trained here day and night, not daring to stop for even a moment.
The reason for this was because there were very limited ways to improve in this world.
There were even fewer ways to obtain extraordinary power.
If these people missed this opportunity, they might not have a similar opportunity in the future.
Of course, Chen Heng's screening methods were also one of the reasons.
He did not leave these people in front of him alone. Instead, he set up layers of tests for them.
If they did not pass the trials, they would be chased out and would lose the right to obtain the legacy.
To Chen Heng, he did not need people who slacked off. If he gave them an opportunity but they let it go so easily, it would be better to give up on them.
Even if they had enough talent, it was the same.
Before this, many people had been directly eliminated by Chen Heng. When they left, they had wailed and wailed, making those who heard them feel that they had been in a pitiful state.
However, Chen Heng did not show them any mercy.
After all, giving him a chance was already a great kindness in and of itself.
If they did not cherish this opportunity and instead slacked off because of it, it would not be pitiful for them to be eliminated.
This was the case for Chen Heng.
As he walked through the passageway, the youths hurriedly stopped what they were doing and quickly bowed to Chen Heng with looks of respect on their faces.
Chen Heng nodded and slowly walked out.
Not long after, he walked to the other side and entered another room.
"Father has sent news …"
Within the room, looking at Chen Heng, a young man looked up with a look of surprise and said, "This is a letter from him to you."
The young man before him was none other than Zhan Li.
It was noon at the moment. Looking at the time, he was still busy here. He seemed to be very busy with work.
However, this was no wonder.
After all, in the current situation, due to the constant influx of refugees from all over the world, there was actually a lot of work to be done.
Although there were no major matters, some of the more complicated matters had never been cut off.
On the other hand, Chen Heng did not have many officials under him.
This was something that could not be helped.
In this era, there were very few people who could read. As for people who had mastered basic mathematics and management, and could handle some administrative affairs, it was even rarer.
Chen Heng was in short supply of such people.
Even though as time passed, many wandering Knights from the south had come to join him, it was fine to ask them to help him kill people, but asking them to help him deal with administrative affairs was quite difficult.
Because of this, Zhan Li and the others were all quite busy, and they all worked overtime.
Of course, even though they were working overtime, to the people of this world, this was a great thing.
There were many people who wanted to work overtime but could not do so.
Zhan Li didn't feel that it was hard at all. He worked hard every day and just stayed here, almost treating this place as his own home.
"Uncle gave me a letter?"
Hearing Zhan Li's words, Chen Heng nodded and felt quite surprised.
Zhan Li's father was Xillia, who was this body's uncle.
Even though he had come here and taken root here, his connection with Xillia had not been severed.
After all, this was Karo Kingdom, and to Chen Heng and the others, it was a foreign country.
Coming to this foreign region, it was inevitable that they would need the help of some local factions in order to develop better.
As for Xillia's Elland family, it was perfect for this.
Moreover, even if that was not the case, Siliva was still Chen Heng's body's uncle.
Regardless of which aspect it was, it was necessary to keep in touch and build a good relationship with them.
Because of this, Chen Heng would write a letter to Xillia every month, informing him of his movements and the situation here.
As for Xillia, he would often send letters back to Chen Heng.
As such, Chen Heng did not feel that Xillia's letter was strange.
However, what surprised him was that Xillia's letter had just come a while ago, so why was it coming again after a few days?
Standing there, Chen Heng instinctively felt that something was off.
As such, Chen Heng directly opened the letter in front of Zhan Li, revealing the contents.
The contents of the letter were not very complicated and could even be said to be quite simple.
However, the information on it caused Chen Heng to frown.
"What is it?"
Looking at Chen Heng's expression, Zhan Li could not help but ask.
"Take a look for yourself."
Hearing Zhan Li's words, Chen Heng raised his head and looked at him as he smiled. He did not hide anything and directly handed over the letter.
This was a way to show his trust.
Zhan Li instinctively took the letter from Chen Heng and looked at it seriously.
Not long after, his expression changed as he looked at the content written on it.
"Dusk Church!"
His expression changed slightly as he uttered a name.
The contents of the letter were not very complicated.
Xillia told Chen Heng about something that had happened recently.
They had discovered traces of the Dusk Church on the border of Karo Kingdom.
This world was the World of Gods.
In the past, the gods had been high and mighty and had left behind many traces in this world, as well as many churches.
The Dusk Church was one of them.
However, compared to other churches, the Dusk Church's reputation was incredibly vicious.
This church was famed for their love of blood sacrifices.
Just blood sacrifices were not that big of a deal. After all, many places in this world had the habit of blood sacrifices, and some churches that were known for their kindness also had blood sacrifices.
Just a blood sacrifice would not do much.
However, the problem was that the Dusk Church's blood sacrifices were not ordinary at all.
Their blood sacrifices were famed for their cruelty. It was said that before the sacrifice, they had to use all sorts of methods to torture and humiliate the target, causing the target's fear and hatred to reach its peak. They would then burn the target's soul in flames, offering it to the Dusk God.
Moreover, they liked to choose extraordinary individuals for their blood sacrifices.
Nobles with holy blood flowing through their veins, Life Knights with extraordinary power, and even Priests of other churches …
Existences like these were the best blood sacrifices for the Dusk Order, as they could better please their god.
It was because of this that the Dusk Church was so infamous and disgusting.
In fact, whenever they heard that they were active in a certain region, many people would feel terrified and want to kill them.
And this time, Siliva's letter was precisely because of this.
They had discovered traces of the Dusk Church at the border of Kalo.
This might just be a coincidence, but it was also possible that some Priests of the Dusk Church had entered Kalo.
No matter which it was, this was news that Chen Heng had to be wary of.
It was because of this that Xillia had sent a letter to notify Chen Heng.
After all, to nobles, existences like the Dusk Church were things that they had to be wary of.
"Looks like Kalo is going to be quite interesting again."
Standing there and thinking about the contents of Xillia's letter, Chen Heng shook his head and thought to himself.
"Where are Hedoshiri and the others?"
After thinking for a moment, he looked at Zhan Li and asked, "Sir Hedoshiri is still guarding the castle outside.
"Lord Hedoshiri is still guarding the castle outside. If there are no accidents, he should be back tomorrow," Roland said.
Zhan Li thought for a moment before replying.
"Very well."
Chen Heng nodded and did not say anything else.
Following this, he went somewhere else and sat there with Zhan Li as they started to take care of matters.
The next day, outside the town, an army slowly approached.
The army was not very big, only having a few hundred people. However, they looked quite valiant and all of them had weapons and armor.
Most of them were leather armor, but a small portion of them were scale armor, and some were even simple wooden armor.
However, no matter what, they looked much better than the armies of the other nobles, whether it was in terms of equipment or other aspects.
At the front of the army was a young man.
The young man looked quite tall and wore exquisite black clothes. He was currently riding on a horse and galloping at the front.
Not long after, the army arrived at the outskirts of the town. They set up camp there and began to reorganize.
"Welcome back."
Chen Heng personally led some people to welcome Hedoshiri back.
After more than a year, Hedoshiri was still the same as before. He looked quite valiant and tall, and he looked quite spirited.
Of course, Ramu was the same; he did not look any different and seemed quite spirited.
This was quite normal.
No matter if it was Hedoshiri or Ramu, they were both Life Knights.
Not only were Life Knights physically stronger than humans, but their lifespans were also much longer.
As Life Knights, their lifespans were much longer than ordinary people's, so they naturally did not age as easily.
Moreover, even if this was excluded, they were still in the prime of their lives, and were at the peak of their strength.
"How were your gains this time?"
After welcoming them, Chen Heng looked at the two people beside him and smiled as he asked.
"Not bad."
A smile appeared on Hedoshiri's face as he said, "Recently, the number of Beastmen has decreased significantly."
It seems that Your Majesty's actions have dealt a heavy blow to them. "
He seemed quite excited.
A year ago, this region was still occupied by Orcs, and there were many Orc tribes here. Some of the more powerful Orc tribes could even muster nearly 10,000 Orc warriors.
In order to gain a stable foothold in this region and reduce the threat, Hedoshiri and the others had to act and continuously suppress the Orcs.
During this time, Chen Heng had personally acted.
A peak 3-Ring Sorcerer personally acted, and the results were quite shocking.
That time, Chen Heng had destroyed an entire Orc tribe with magic arts.
Of course, Ramu was the same. He didn't seem to have changed much at the moment, and he seemed to be very energetic.
This was quite normal.
Whether it was Hedoshiri or Ramu, they were both Life Knights.
Not only were Life Knights physically stronger than humans, but their lifespans were also the same.
As Life Knights, their lifespans were longer than ordinary people's, so they naturally did not age as easily.
Moreover, even if this was excluded, they were still in the prime of their lives, and were at the peak of their strength.
"How were your gains this time?"
