Just like magic skill frameworks created by people, the magic skill frameworks created through the Magic Net did not last forever.

Based on what Chen Heng could sense, they would last around one day.

This meant that after constructing a magic skill framework one day, it would disappear the next.

If someone wanted to use the magic skill, they would have to form a new magic skill framework.

This was quite detrimental.

Because the Sorcerers of this world relied on the Magic Net long-term, their own magic skill casting abilities would be quite weak.

As such, in order to avoid unexpected situations, they had to save magic skill frameworks in the Magic Net.

If that was the case, in order to replenish the magic skill frameworks that expired every day, they would have to expend a large amount of mental energy.

This world was not safe, and it was filled with dangers.

Not only were there all kinds of Outlanders and churches, but there were many bandits.

If a Sorcerer wanted to keep themselves safe, they had to store many magic skill frameworks in advance.

Because Sorcerers relied on the Magic Net and provided large amounts of mental energy to it, the Magic Net would become stronger day by day.

"So that's the Magic Goddess' method…" Chen Heng thought to himself, and he could not help but feel some admiration towards the Magic Goddess.

In this world, the Magic Goddess had a firm grip over the Sorcerers.

With the Magic Net, even if the Sorcerers wanted to become independent, it would be impossible.

When the vast majority of Sorcerers relied on the Magic Goddess' Magic Net to cast magic skills, Sorcerers as a whole were within the Magic Goddess' grasp.

In order to obtain the right to use the Magic Net, the Sorcerers had to worship the Magic Goddess, and they would not dare to defect to other gods.

After all, once they defected, their ability to cast magic skills would be stripped from them.

This provision of mental energy from Sorcerers every day—was this not faith energy?

This world's faith energy did not come just from faith and worship but from people's soul energy.

This included gratitude, terror, and pure mental energy.

For the gods of this world, pure mental energy would be quite a pure form of faith energy to them.

This way, the Magic Goddess did not have to spend much effort in gaining followers; just like this, she was able to obtain large amounts of faith energy.

There were also many people who longed to become Sorcerers, who would also become the Magic Goddess's worshippers.

Her methods were far more advanced than the other gods.

Thinking to there, Chen Heng could not help but sigh, and he gained greater understanding towards this world's gods.

It was not an exaggeration to say that this world's gods were the people at the top, whether in be in terms of strength or intelligence.

However, this did not have any relation to Chen Heng for now.

At the very least, he had no intentions of building a church right now.

If he did not have such plans, he naturally would not come into conflict with these gods.

Moreover, in this current age, this world's gods seemed to have fallen dormant, so he did not have to worry too much.

Footsteps sounded out outside.

Hearing those footsteps, Chen Heng looked over.

Outside, Herdosiri and Lamu were walking over, and had already changed.

"Lord Aktor…" Herdosiri walked in first and looked at Chen Heng respectfully, "Everything has been prepared, and we can set out tomorrow as planned."

"Alright." Chen Heng nodded and said, "We're going to start travelling again tomorrow, so get some good rest. In the future, things won't be as comfortable."

"We understand," Herdosiri and Lamu smiled and nodded.

Following this, the two of them went back to their rooms to rest, leaving Chen Heng in his room.

During the next period of time, he did not go out and stayed in his room as he continued to investigate the Magic Net.

For Chen Heng, this Magic Net was quite an interesting thing, and it was worth researching—perhaps it would be of use to him in the future.

The next day, as the sky began to brighten, the three of them once again set out.

After resting in this city for a few days, they looked like they were in good shape, and their clothes and weapons were all new.

However, they did not plan to stay in this city.

Even though they had left the Malido Kingdom, the war had not ended, and this city might be swept into the war at any moment.

In order to avoid this, the three of them decided to leave and head for a further place.

"I heard that there is an invasion going on in the Kalo Kingdom right now; I wonder how things are."

Thinking of the information he had gained, Lamu suddenly spoke.

"What's the situation like?" Chen Heng asked.

"I'm not too sure," Lamu shook his head, "Apparently there are Beastmen causing chaos within the Kalo Kingdom."

"Beastmen…" Chen Heng thought for a moment before giving a slight smile, "This is good. I was wondering how we should look for opportunities after going to the Kalo Kingdom; I never expected an opportunity to just come to us.

"Since the Kalo Kingdom is in chaos, I'm sure many nobles have died, right?"

"I'm not exactly sure, but it's very likely," Herdosiri thought for a moment before nodding.

The Kalo Kingdom was not an incredibly powerful kingdom, and it could not even compare to the previous Malido Kingdom.

If the Beastmen of the wastelands really did invade, then it would be a big trial for the Kalo Kingdom.

"Since it's like that, this is a good opportunity," Chen Heng said as he laughed, "This means that there are new positions and territory waiting for people with strength to take them."

Hearing this, Herdosiri and Lamu could not help but grin.

No matter when it was, warriors could only show their worth on the battlefield.

Even Knights and Bloodline Awakeners needed a place to call home.

With their strength, no matter where they went, they would be able to gain respect and obtain a decent territory.

However, even if they were to obtain territories, there were big differences between what they could get.

If they went to a kingdom that was in a time of peace, most of the territories would have been given out already, and even if there was anything left, it would just be territories at the border.

If it was a place like that, the three of them would not be given very good treatment.

However, a place like the Kalo Kingdom was different.

During a time of chaos, those with great strength were greatly valued.

With their strength, they would be able to obtain more benefits there.

In this region, the Oro Empire was incredibly powerful, and the three of them did not dare to attack it.

However, the Beastmen in the Kalo Kingdom were not as strong, and the three of them could fight against them.

Thinking to there, they picked up their pace and began to travel.

Time gradually passed.

They travelled northwards for a long time and came to a new place after two or three months.

Ahead, there was an overgrown grassy area, and it did not look like there were many people around.

"We should be able to reach Kalo soon," a middle-aged man wearing simple leather armor said as he looked at Chen Heng and the others.

"I see."

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Chen Heng nodded and said, "Then, according to our agreement, we will be leaving now."

"Very well."

Hearing Chen Heng's words, the middle-aged man's expression was respectful as he hurriedly nodded, "Thank you for your care during this trip. If you need anything, please come to find our Golden Mouse Merchant Alliance, I will be sure to give you discounts."

"We'll take you up on that," Chen Heng said as he nodded and smiled before heading onwards with Herdosiri and Lamu.

As they continued onwards, they began to see some crops, which meant that there were most likely people living nearby.

"The Kalo Kingdom's land seems to be overgrown with plants and grasses," Herdosiri said as he frowned, "This is different to the Malido Kingdom."

In the Malido Kingdom, there was very little land that was allowed to grow wild like this; most of it had been used up.

In contrast, there was a lot of land in the Kalo Kingdom that was not taken care of by anyone.

This scene made Herdosiri and Lamu frown.

As nobles from the Malido Kingdom, they felt that this was a great waste.

This good soil was not being cultivated, and it was instead being left to grow wild.

"Perhaps it's because the Kalo Kingdom has much fewer people than the Malido Kingdom," Chen Heng said.

Only with enough people would all of the land in the kingdom be used productively.

No matter which age it was in, growing crops was something that required people.

The lack of cultivation of land in the Kalo Kingdom meant that there were not that many people here.

However, this was quite strange—if a place did not have enough people, then there would naturally be people moving from other regions to take over this overgrown land.

Even in this world, land with good soil was quite precious, and it should not be thrown out like this.

"Is it because of the threat of the Beastmen?" Chen Heng thought to himself as they continued to travel.

On the way, they discovered that the Kalo Kingdom's situation was worse than they had thought.

There was much overgrown land and abandoned houses.

It was better than the situation in the Malido Kingdom but not that much better.

"I don't know if this is good news or bad news," Chen Heng said as he shook his head, "Let's continue on though. Since we've already come here, we might as well get something done."

Hearing his words, Herdosiri and Lamu silently nodded.

Indeed, they had already come here, and it had taken a great deal of time and effort.

They should at least give things a try, and if things didn't work out, then there would be no harm in leaving.

Time gradually passed.

A few days later, they came outside a castle.

Based on Chen Heng's memories, this was their destination—this was where Chen Heng's identity's uncle, Siriv Arlan's territory, was.

Chen Heng's mother did not have an incredibly prestigious background, but she was still a noble.

The family she was from was the Kalo Kingdom's Arlan family.

The Arlan family was a noble family within the Kalo Kingdom, and it had a Viscount.

Siriv was the Arlan's current family leader, and he was Chen Heng's identity's uncle.

From Chen Heng's memories, he had come here with his mother in the past.

Of course, that was a long time ago, when his body had still been a child.

However, this was why Chen Heng was able to rely on this body's memories to find this place.

When they arrived here, they felt quite startled—ahead, sounds of fighting and shouting could be heard.

Ahead, there were two groups fighting.

There were about 200 or 300 people on each side, 500 or 600 in total.

It did not seem like a big deal to Chen Heng and the others.

Compared to the Oro Empire's army, these people were not that strong. They were not elites, nor were they very unified; they were just a pile of loose sand.

Looking at this scene, Herdosiri and Lamu instinctively looked over at Chen Heng.

As they watched on , Chen Heng frowned.

One of the sides had a flag, and the insignia belonged to the Arlan family.

This was within the Arlan family's territory, so why were they fighting with other people?

Chen Heng felt quite confused, but there was no time to think.

"Herdosiri, Lamu," Chen Heng did not hesitate and called out their names, "Let's charge."

"Yes," Herdosiri and Lamu did not hesitate and began to rush forwards on their horses.

Rumbles sounded out.

Hearing the sounds from afar, some people noticed the three of them.

"Those are…"

Looking at the people approaching, a tall man with dignified looks seemed quite surprised, "Who are they?"

As the lord of this territory, he had no idea who these people were.

Were they outsiders?

Were they allies or enemies?

Soon, as he watched on, the three of them charged into the fray.

"They're crazy!" many people thought to themselves looking at those three people's actions.

For them to directly charge into the battlefield at a moment like this, they would be taken to be enemies by soldiers on both sides.

This was equivalent to suicide.
