After finishing the dinner provided at the inn, Sylphidya slept soundly, and the night was peaceful. The next day, she changed into a plainer dress, dyed her hair black, and then exited through the side door of the inn, heading to Karen's residence in Stream Valley City. Recalling the address Yarrow had given her, Sylphidya walked along the street. It was around eight in the morning, and there were many pedestrians. She blended in unnoticed. After some searching, Sylphidya didn't take long to arrive at…-

After spending more than half a month in Scorched Stone City, Sylphidya heard that Stream Valley City to the north had been unsealed and the situation had stabilized. So, she decided to go there to visit Karen. "Miss Tiya, please stay inside the carriage. We will handle everything else." A merchant with a small mustache respectfully invited Sylphidya into the carriage. He was the son of the 'Oak Barrel Chamber of Commerce' chairman. Thanks to Sylphidya, the situation in Scorched Stone City had finally…-

A week later, Sylphidya hosted Lucas, who had come to visit, at her mansion. In the tall, empty, yet resplendent hall, Sylphidya wore a pale white and goose-yellow gown, even her hair tie was a pale white and goose-yellow silk ribbon. As she sat on the sofa, those familiar with the place might have felt a sense of déjà vu, for her demeanor subtly echoed Madam Fran's back then. However, amidst the similarities, there were subtle differences. Perhaps Sylphidya had a bit more of a maiden's unique beauty…-

The following week, Sylphidya and Lucas remained in Scorched Stone City, though they disguised themselves to avoid direct exposure to soldiers and civilians. Under their supervision and assistance, A Lu gradually gained control over the soldiers in Scorched Stone City, ensuring that all soldiers received a sum of money in the process. This made everyone complicit, preventing some from actively leaking information. Due to the duo's attacks, the high-end combat power in Scorched Stone City was…-

"What to do with the remaining soldiers?" Sylphidya pondered, a hint of distress on her face. She wasn't a bloodthirsty person, and while these soldiers had committed wrongs, not all of them deserved to die. But if she simply let them all go, what would become of Scorched Stone City? Driven by a simple sentiment, she didn't want the city's residents to suffer such oppression and humiliation any longer. "Perhaps I should find a leader among them and have him restrain them," she mused. She and Lucas…-

While Sylphidya and the two knights were fighting, Lucas, on the other side, was struggling to resist the 'Blood Law' warrior named Alu. The giant axe wielded by the opponent, swaggering with power, was simply the bane of skeletal creatures. No matter what kind of skeleton corpses Lucas summoned and commanded, they would be easily chopped down and shattered by the opponent. Under the constant pressure of the approaching enemy, he didn't have much spare energy to cast complex and powerful magical abilities…-

Inside the cave, the two cleaned up the battlefield. Lucas's primary target was naturally the incomplete dragon bones embedded in the stone wall. Although their quality was poor, they were still rare and valuable to him. On the other side, Sylphidya walked among the skeletal remains, searching for anything useful that might have been left behind. Most of the bones here were from beasts, and Sylphidya guessed that this might have once been a dragon's lair, and these bones were the remains of food after…-

Seeing these yellowed bones, Lucas seemed to find his beloved treasure. He let the skeletal creatures carefully dig them out, then held them in his palm to observe closely. At such a sight, Sylphidya silently stepped back a couple of paces, moving aside to continue observing the surroundings. Although the bones still retained a faint trace of the 'Dragon Eye' attribute, it was very weak. It was clear these were not dragon bones, but products of other creatures being permeated by the 'Dragon Eye'…-

Inside the cave, the two walked one after another. Lucas walked in front, Sylphidya behind, but before and after them were several bone-spliced undead creatures, guarding and protecting them. The miners had already fled, and now it was especially quiet here, with only the footsteps of the two and the bone creatures. Occasionally, Sylphidya would hear a faint dripping sound from somewhere, which might be water seeping into the cave from within the mountain. "Sylphidya, did you advance through the…-

A treehouse in a hidden settlement. This was Sylphidya's temporary abode. The great tree, nurtured by her, had grown into a massive canopy spanning tens of meters. Beneath this tree, she had built a treehouse from the same material as the bark, using the tree's trunk as support. Inside the treehouse's main hall, the orange-yellow glow of the lamp illuminated Sylphidya and an old man sitting opposite each other, with a small tea table between them. "Are you feeling better, Mr. Vanders?" Sylphidya stood…-
