    “Is this the Dragon Blood Fruit?”

    Kei stared at the baskets overflowing with bright red fruits, his eyes practically glowing.

    “This thing really has one-third the effect of a Lower-Grade Dragon Blood Potion?”

    Su Nan smiled slightly, “Do you want to have someone test it?”

    “No need, don’t we trust each other?” Kei laughed heartily.

    He wasn’t questioning Su Nan, of course. He was just too excited.

    The supply of Lower-Grade Dragon Blood Potions couldn’t keep up with demand, causing the Blackrock Cavalry’s expansion to slow significantly.

    Even with the full support of the entire territory, the Blackrock Cavalry currently only had around three hundred members.

    Of those, only about two-thirds were actual knights.

    Kei still had a long way to go before achieving his goal of an all-knight army.

    He dreamed of Su Nan finding a substitute for the Lower-Grade Dragon Blood Potion.

    Thankfully, this problem had finally been solved.

    With this batch of Dragon Blood Fruits, the Blackrock Cavalry, stagnant for so long, could finally accelerate its expansion!

    Bred, Jorton, and Stary, standing behind Kei, all had beaming faces.

    They all understood what the Dragon Blood Fruits meant.

    With this, the Shining Light Territory’s military power could experience another rapid surge!

    “Right, this is for you.”

    Su Nan tossed Kei a Dragon Blood Fruit.

    The latter instinctively reached out to catch it, questioning, “This is...”

    “A specially modified Dragon Blood Fruit. After eating it, you should be able to break through to become a Mid-Level Great Knight,” Su Nan explained.

    In reality, it was a synthetic Dragon Blood Fruit, made from hundreds of original ones.

    If converted to Dragon Blood Potions, it would be equivalent to three or four Upper-Grade Dragon Blood Potions.

    Beast Transformation Plague usually resulted in complete loss of reason, accompanied by a surge in strength, akin to a permanent rage state.

    If a knight was infected, a one or two-level increase in combat power was normal.

    If a peak knight was infected, their combat power could even skyrocket to the level of a Great Knight.

    Dozens of infected knights were enough to directly assault a fully equipped thousand-man cavalry regiment. The thought was chilling.

    How could the commanding general responsible for suppression allow the situation to deteriorate to this point?

    As if sensing Su Nan’s confusion, Kei continued, “The commanding general responsible for suppression has been relieved of his duties by the Frost Dye Marquis. The new commander is Lord Yone. He is a veteran general who has followed the Frost Dye Marquis on numerous campaigns, and is also a Legendary Knight. With him in charge, the Beast Transformation Plague should be suppressed quickly.”

    Kei spoke with absolute confidence.

    After all, a Legendary Knight was the pinnacle of combat power in the Starsea Duchy.

    Such a powerful figure could easily suppress a group of infected individuals who had lost their minds.

    In fact, all the nobles who knew about this situation shared the same sentiment.

    But the situation’s development defied everyone’s expectations.

    In the Starlight Calendar year 1251, Spring Dawn Month (March).

    Legendary Knight Yone was besieged by thousands of infected individuals in Jade Orchid City. After an exhausting battle, he was killed.

    The accompanying elite cavalry regiment was completely wiped out.

    The news shocked the entire Starsea Duchy. Countless nobles focused their attention on Frost Dye Province.

    In the same year, Thunderclap Month (April).

    The Beast Transformation Plague spread at an alarming rate.

    Apart from the central city of Frost Dye City, almost the entire Frost Dye Province was affected by the plague.

    As the origin of the plague, Silver Ridge City became a wasteland.

    The bordering Lake Orchid Province, Red Leaf Province, and White Pagoda Province all established封锁线 (blockades) on their borders, prohibiting residents of Frost Dye Province from entering their territories.

    In the same month, the Frost Dye Marquis sent a plea for help to the capital, requesting reinforcements.

    The following month, the Starsea Duke dispatched troops into Frost Dye Province to begin suppressing the infected.

    For a time, the entire Starsea Duchy seemed to be enveloped in an atmosphere of uncertainty.
