Struggle in the Steam Age

"The situation below is very normal." Hearing someone question, Lawrence opened his mouth and shouted to the top of the stairs, "This altar doesn't seem to be activated, it should be a sleeping altar.

"Okay, then we're coming down now." As the four people walked down the passage, Lawrence could see that there were two warriors, a priest, and a gunner with an enchanted rifle in both hands.

"Please allow us to do a check on you first." The priest who led the team showed a slightly surprised look when he found that there was a rat man in the room besides Lawrence, and then said to the two of them seriously . "After all, you are in contact with the altar of evil gods, so follow the procedure—"

"I know the process very well, please start the test." Lawrence said as he motioned Fatina to sit there like himself. Soon, the priest waved his hand at them after reciting the incantation silently, a light blue light emerged from the priest's hand, and then scanned the two of them from head to toe.

"Okay, you should not be contaminated." After the inspection, the four team members breathed a sigh of relief. They were actually tense just now, worried that Lawrence and the others would jump up and attack them if they were contaminated.

Soon after inspecting and destroying two simple traps, the two warriors used their magic power to pry off all the gems and things on the altar and put them into a leather bag, and then they put the half-human The tall statue of the evil god was lifted up.

Contrary to imagination, there is no grudge in this world that is completely different from magic. Some of the moves used by warriors are just another application of magic. However, in Zhendan and those eastern countries in the old continent, a special method of using energy called "Qi" that combines magic power and physical energy is popular.

Next, Lawrence and the others returned to the St. Gutenberg Cathedral with the action team, and the team also brought Fatina with them.

The first thing Lawrence did when he returned to the church was to go to the Ministry of Faith and Doctrine to hand in the task. However, it may take a little time to complete the task due to the altar of evil gods. Seeing this, he simply put all the jewelry obtained in this operation, except for the bronze mirror and cash, there as a consignment.

The logistics department of the church will help insiders like Lawrence Lance sell their trophies. Of course, the price will definitely be a little lower than the market price. But fortunately, it is safe, and there is no need to worry about people being black and white.

After coming out of the office of the Ministry of Faith, Lawrence saw Fatina also coming out of the medical room next door. The church treated her wound for the sake of helping her a little, and at the same time arranged a room for her to stay in the church for one night.

The rest of the day was spent while Lawrence was learning all kinds of knowledge. Since he completed the first task assigned by the church, he also passed the trial period.

After passing the test period, as a non-staff member, he can borrow one book from the library for free every week, and he can also borrow two more books per week from the first floor of the library at the price of two books and a point. .

Therefore, after a hasty lunch with Fatina, Lawrence sent her back to her room to rest. Then he went directly to the library and borrowed two books, "Basics of Magic" and "The Extraordinary History of the White Eagle Federation". After all, these books belonged to the extraordinary, and Lawrence's adoptive father had never read such books to him before.

Among them, "Basics of Magic" is a must-read for extraordinary people, especially spellcasters. It tells a series of knowledge related to magic. Although it can't teach readers any magic, it can let spellcasters know some basic knowledge about magic. So even if he was a warlock who relied on talent to cast spells, Lawrence would naturally read this important book.

The most important reason why Lawrence borrowed the book "The Extraordinary History of the White Eagle Federation" was to find traces of the Scarlet Sky organization. organizations are of great interest.

Not to mention that the pendant he took out from that cement brick before might represent a large fortune left by the vanished organization, and Lawrence didn't intend to pass up this opportunity.

Unfortunately, he only found some clues about this organization from this book when he was looking for dinner. This information is not only mixed in many places in this book, but also very scattered. As a result, Lawrence finally concluded that there is not much information, but there are two pieces of information that deserve Lawrence's attention.

The first point is that the leader of the Scarlet Sky organization was a sanctuary-level black priest, and he had a strong ability to escape. The newly born White Eagle Federation finally mobilized a demigod and three sanctuaries to set a trap before successfully killing him.

In this world, the ranks of extraordinary people from low to high are apprentice, apprentice, official, professional, expert, master, hero, legend, sanctuary, and demigod. Among them, people who have just started to involve supernatural powers and have mastered supernatural abilities equivalent to zero-level magic will be called contacts. It is not included in the superhuman level. And more than a demigod is a god, which is not within the scope of everyone's discussion.

According to this set of classification standards, apprentice-level transcendents are required to master first-level magic or extraordinary power of the same level, apprentice-level transcendents are required to master second-level magic or extraordinary power of the same level, and so on until sanctuary-level extraordinary Those who have mastered the ninth level of magic or equivalent extraordinary power.

A demigod-level transcendent must not only master top-level ninth-level magic or equivalent extraordinary power, but also integrate the laws he has comprehended into these powers so that he can display powerful power beyond ninth-level magic.

This kind of division was formulated by the mages back then, because the division method of the mages was more accurate, so it became the division method of everyone afterwards.

You must know that even a powerful country like the White Eagle Federation, which has been established for a long time, has only three demigod-level transcendents until now, and the strongest in many small countries is the sanctuary.

Therefore, it was easy for Lawrence to deduce from the level of the leader of this organization how strong the Scarlet Sky organization was back then, and it also made him a lot more cautious about subsequent treasure hunting activities.

"But don't worry too much." Lawrence comforted himself. The skull pendant that could be used as a key to somewhere should obviously be buried by the grandfather of the woman who turned into a monster. According to the existing information, his grandfather was a man with a heart Ordinary people who know some extraordinary knowledge. So that key relic is theoretically not that difficult to enter.

Because if there is an unknown danger in it, a normal person would not leave it to his children and grandchildren, so he would naturally throw the pendant in a secret place, there is no need to seriously hide it. Only when he personally is sure that it is safe enough and that there are things that can make life better for his children and grandchildren will he seriously collect this thing.

The second point that attracted Lawrence's attention was the last encirclement and suppression battle against this organization in the records. Because the Church of Knowledge also participated in that year, Lawrence wrote in the supplementary information of the Church of Knowledge in the book "The Extraordinary History of the White Eagle Federation" I found some details of the siege that year.

After comparing it with the various areas on the previous treasure hunt map, Lawrence found that one of the points marked on the treasure hunt map was not listed as the target of the post-war cleanup. This information immediately allowed Lawrence to determine the target he was looking for, without the need to find the eight points marked on the treasure map one by one.

After carefully analyzing these things, Lawrence looked at his watch and hurried to the cafeteria. Because he found that the meal time had arrived, and if he didn't go there, there would be nothing delicious left.
