Following that, more and more trivial matters were reported, and the management of the palace area became more and more complicated as the power grew.
At a time like this, Garen might as well just let go of his authority, giving the three disciples of Ivycius a management role, using all the available manpower.
After settling everything quickly, he wouldn't have to worry about it for a long time. Even the plans for the next two years had been completed.
His main goal was to increase his own power, and not to expand his power, so these were secondary.
A week later, three of the four elders of the Glittering Pond returned, leaving Elder Wukang to guard the Glittering Pond.
During the battle at the Glittering Pond, Elder Wukang used endless dark clouds to cover the entire area around the Glittering Pond, forming a Lightless Zone with a radius of more than ten kilometers. Within it, Wukang's totem power was tripled, and his vision wasn't obstructed by the smoke. Opponents who entered the smoke without his permission were stuck in an awkward situation where they couldn't use any of their totem powers.
The smoke lasted for twenty minutes, but in these twenty minutes, Elder Wukang killed thirteen Form Four masters and monsters alone, wiping out all the outsiders who fought for the Glittering Pond.
Almost all of the random forces around Kovitan, the Form Fours that were in charge were all killed by him alone. One of them was an Elemental General of the Obscuro Society who was unfortunately caught in the smoke.
The surrounding monster nests were also uprooted by him.
In just a few short days, Elder Wu Guang had established a fierce reputation for being extremely valiant. He was respectfully called the Master of Wukang.
In the entire Caeserton area, other than the other three Great Leaders, no one else dared to challenge the Black Swamp Palace.
The other three Great Leaders couldn't understand the special importance of the Glittering Water, so they didn't fight with the Black Swamp Palace, and just watched. From their point of view, going against so many forces for a potion that only had healing properties wasn't a wise choice.
Soon, the negative effects of Island Master Wukang killing the monster nests came.
The Glittering Pond wasn't in the Caeserton shelter area, and a large number of monsters gathered there, including a few stronger nest leaders. They already had basic intelligence, and knew how to hold grudges. They surrounded the Glittering Pond.
After a big battle, Blizzard and Heavenly Girl Skyharp acted together, killing all the monster leaders, and turning them into their own collection or resources. They had completely recovered the small territory around the Glittering Pond.
A week later, when the three of them returned, Grand Duke Benoc also began to reclaim his territory. His White Oak Tree Army quickly expanded and reclaimed the mines outside the shelter.
The other two factions followed suit and expanded outwards. In any case, he had Caeserton as his backing. If he couldn't win, he could retreat at any time.
Now that the nest leaders had been completely separated, the density was not as dense as before. As long as their numbers were not large, there was no need to be afraid of these monsters.
After all, most of the high-level monsters were held back by the Underground Elder Council. Due to the high density of monsters, most of them could not find enough food and water to sustain themselves.
In an instant, the entire Kovitan was in a frenzy, raising the enthusiasm to reclaim their land.
After the three elders returned, Garon met with the other three parties. After a small meeting, they passed a series of policies for the national economy and people's livelihood.
One of the most important ones was to encourage fertility.
War and monsters had caused the once prosperous human society to be riddled with holes. A large number of precious documents had been lost, and a large number of technological breakthroughs had been destroyed. Half of the civilization had lost its heritage. Humans were massacred on a large scale. Recently, because there were too many corpses and there was not enough water to clean them up, several infectious diseases started to spread quietly.
A large number of hospitals and disease control centers were built. Forgers and Luminarists were all recruited. The entire Kovitan no longer cared about the internal strife for power. Instead, everyone was busy reclaiming their land and resources. Whoever reclaimed more cities and mines first would have a stronger foundation and wealth.
The internal conflict quickly turned into the reclaiming and plundering of external resources.
After Garon had made the necessary arrangements, he left the Kingdom and rushed towards the Glittering Pond.
He wanted to see this special resource that gave him a headache. With the Flash Barrier on him, his safety and stability were guaranteed. Especially after Ivycius made a move and condensed an explosive crystal, there were no more problems.
He had tried the explosive crystal's power before. It was equivalent to a full-powered attack from Ivycius, who was now between Form 4 and 5. Safety was definitely not an issue. Garon could also go out without worry.
*****
In the morning, above the sea of clouds in the sky above the Kingdom, a flock of giant black birds with a wingspan of more than ten meters flapped their wings, pulling a black carriage the size of a small house.
In the white sea of clouds, the black carriage pulled by the black birds was like a dot of ink on a white paper, clearly visible.
The carriage wheels seemed to be rolling forward on the clouds. From afar, it looked like there was a string of small golden bells hanging at the corner of the carriage.
Ding dang … Ding dang …
Every few minutes, outside the black carriage, the faint sound of bells being blown by the wind could be heard.
Garon sat in the carriage, playing with a red jade-like pebble in his hand, half leaning on the back of the chair.
The sound of the wind could be heard faintly from outside the carriage. From time to time, the clear chirping of birds could be heard from above.
The carriage was decorated with a set of black tables and chairs, a small red bookshelf, a washroom and a small bedroom.
There was a portrait of Vanderman hanging on the wooden wall. A metal frame was fixed to one foot, and a black vase was framed on top of it. The green plants in the vase were blooming white flowers that looked like daffodils. The faint fragrance of the flowers filled the entire carriage.
Sitting opposite of Garen was Skyharp, this female elder with an unprepossessing appearance was currently holding a cup of hot flower tea, slowly sipping it. Her expression was relaxed, as if she was enjoying the refreshing fragrance of the tea.
Garon played with the stone in his hand, while silently circulating the route of the Secret Technique in his body, not relaxing at all.
"Why do you have time to come out with me? Didn't we just go once? "
Skyharp drank a mouthful of tea, and did not answer immediately. She only quietly watched the white flower petals in the tea rise and fall.
"I just felt that it was boring staying there." After a while, she slowly spoke.
"This time, I did not alert anyone. I went out quietly. It's rare for me to come out, so naturally, I won't just go back for a walk. Do you have any plans? "Garon spoke again.
"Plans?" Skyharp seemed to have thought of something, but immediately shook her head, and did not speak again.
Garon saw her like this, and knew that she had suffered a setback with Ivycius. She looked as if she was hurt by love. She did not say anything more.
"I'm pregnant."
Pfft!
Garon almost spat out the tea in his mouth.
"It's Ivycius' child …" Skyharp said lightly.
"Are you sure you're not joking?!" Garon was speechless.
"It's Ivycius' child." Skyharp nodded with certainty.
The two of them fell into silence for a while, and no one spoke.
Garon had not completely digested this fierce truth, and Skyharp did not know what to say.
After a long while.
"You guys … move really fast …" Garon did not know how to comment. With Ivycius' personality, it was definitely not him who initiated it, and the biggest possibility was …
"That's right, I raped him." Skyharp said the shocking truth with a calm face. "Just one portion of Namu's Secret Summoning Potion was enough to easily adjust Ivycius' body."
Her eyes were gloomy.
"Don't forget, I'm a true Secret Potion Master."
Garon felt a chill in his heart, and sized up this strong woman in front of him again.
"Then you came out to give birth to the child?" A Secret Potion Master naturally had a way to remove the embryo from the womb, and change the place to nurture it. This kind of small surgery was abnormally easy in the world of Luminarists.
"Yes …"
Skyharp nodded as a matter of fact.
"My body is different from normal people, I changed the fertilized egg into an egg shape, oh, that's what you call an egg shape, as long as it matures, I can inject my blood every once in a while, and it will slowly grow."
Garon did not know what to say, facing such a fierce woman, he could only mourn for Ivycius.
"Does Ivycius know?"
After a while, Garon finally asked again.
"He doesn't know." Skyharp shook her head, "Life is like this, I originally planned to destroy his totem, and turn him into a normal person, that way he could stay by my side forever, and never be separated. Unfortunately, he actually connected his core totem with his own life, and it can't be separated. "
Garon was speechless again, this woman's outlook on life seemed to be a little twisted …
Fortunately, Skyharp did not notice Garon's expression, now she just needed someone to talk to.
"Back then, he came to the island to look for treasure, and I caught him … Coincidentally, I was lacking an experimental subject, so I kept him. Then, gradually, during the experiment, I fell in love with him, I could see from his angry eyes that he loved me too … So, we fell in love on Skyharp Island."
Wasn't it an angry look? How did you come to the conclusion that he loved you too?
Garon was stunned by Skyharp's fierce logic.
"Back then, I touched every part of his body, what a cute kid …" She was lost in her memories, "He was so cute when he was young, but he became less and less cute when he grew up … He just wanted to leave after staying on the island for twenty years, he really had no patience at all. With me accompanying him, what fun was there in the outside world? "
She mumbled to herself, as if she was immersed in her beautiful memories.
Twenty years, anyone who was used as an experimental subject for twenty years would want to escape …
Garon wanted to say something, but he held back, he also wanted to hear the story of Skyharp and Ivycius.
Obviously, Skyharp was a female gangster. Ivycius, who was still a handsome young man, came to the island by accident, and was then molested by her for twenty years … This was basically the totem user version of a golden house keeping a mistress …
Garon did not know what expression to use to face Skyharp, who was still talking about the past.
To Ivycius, it was probably a painful memory …
Skyharp's personality obviously only recognized the results of her own imagination, towards other people's feedback and performance, she could completely distort all of them.
Ivycius was molested by this female gangster for so many years, no wonder he became like that, he probably lost all hope for human women, that's why he fell in love with his core totem …
