The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Seeing the servants of Sir Hansen's family hurriedly put on the carriage and drove out of the mansion, it seemed that they were going to inform the families of the other two crazy people. Leo didn't intend to stay here any longer, so he stopped a car The carriage controlled the driver and the passengers with psionic energy, and drove towards the railway station.

On the carriage, Leo closed his eyes and meditated, recalling what he had done just now, he was also very surprised, because he did not expect that his improved dreamland technique would have such a powerful effect, and directly put that A few people who were protected by holy artifacts and false artifacts went crazy, and the protection mechanism of the holy artifacts and false artifacts had not been touched during the whole process.

Before Leo planned to do it, he had already discovered that the three targets had holy artifacts and false artifacts given to them by the Church of the Lord of the Sky, which were used to protect their safety, so as not to be caught by hope when they were involved. Sylvia was angry.

The preparation of the Church of the Lord of the Sky is not insufficient. It can also be seen that the Church of the Sky knows Sylvia's character very well. It is very clear that once Sylvia wants to make a move, she will definitely treat these so-called mediators. Do it, otherwise you won't take out such important holy artifacts and pseudo-artifacts.

From a certain point of view, the church's sacred and divine artifacts are considered one of the wonders, but the makers are different. As the name suggests, the sacred artifacts are made by the saints of the church, while the divine artifacts come from the hands of gods.

However, for the vast majority of people, holy artifacts and artifacts of the church are far inferior to wizard wonders in terms of reputation, and they are also extremely rare in number.

Because a church saint can only make one holy artifact at most in his life, and there are very few artifacts. After all, for the gods, blessing believers is already a gift from the gods, and artifacts are only made on special occasions. That's why the church used opportunistic methods to create some false artifacts.

The method of making a pseudo-artifact is very simple, that is, to ask the high-level church to carry an ordinary strange object with them. Every time they receive the blessing of the gods, they must carry this strange object, so that it can be bathed in the power of the gods as much as possible. , as it is passed down from generation to generation, eventually this ordinary strange thing will gradually transform into a pseudo-sacred weapon under the influence of divine power.

Whether it is a sacred artifact or a false artifact, they are extremely important to the church and represent the power of the church's beliefs. These strange objects rarely flow into the people, and most churches will choose to enshrine the sacred artifacts and artifacts instead of using them Take it out and use it.

But now, these three people have not only two sacred artifacts, but also a false artifact in their hands. This not only means that the church attaches great importance to the safety of these three people, but also means that these three people are definitely members of the Church of the Lord of the Sky in the United Kingdom government. Core member.

Although, Leo is confident that if there is a head-on conflict, even if these people have sacred artifacts and false artifacts that have been baptized by faith and divine power for a long time, he can still solve them with his own spiritual power or other powers, but it may be cause some movement.

Especially Viscount Kemp, who carries a fake artifact with him. Although it is just a fake artifact, the divine power of the Lord of the Sky contained in it is real. Once the defense mechanism of that fake artifact is activated, even if he uses all his strength to I am afraid that he will also suffer a lot of damage.

So he considered using other methods to deal with these three targets, and the dreamland technique was the most suitable method he thought of. The reason why he thought of this psionic skill that he had never tried since he created it was mainly because of this The three targets are just ordinary people, not superhumans, and the effects of their illusions will be better, but he didn't expect the effect to be so good.

Dreamland technique is a hybrid psychic skill created by Leo combining the dream-making technique of the power of nightmares and the mind control technique that can only be mastered by level 5 psykers in the psychic skills. It has only one function, that is, Create a real dream under your own control in the target's mind, and then use various methods to directly attack the target's spirit in the dream.

According to Leo's idea, the initial power of the dreamland technique may be just to create a dream world that is enough to make the target completely believe in its reality. Feedback the damage received in the dream to the real body, and finally achieve the effect of killing people invisible.

However, this kind of dreamland technique also has flaws. This kind of flaw is the defect of both dream-making skills and mind control techniques of the power of nightmares. That is, for people with strong enough mental power, the effect of dreamland technique will be much smaller, even May be totally ineffective.

Although the three of Sir Hansen have holy artifacts and false artifacts, they are just ordinary people. Even if their personal spiritual power may be stronger than ordinary people due to high positions, life experiences, etc., they are still stronger than ordinary people. Limited, obviously much worse than a real transcendent.

Therefore, when Leo cast the dreamland technique, the three of them were pulled into the dreamland created by Leo without any resistance, and neither the holy artifact nor the false artifact was touched.

Also because the spirits of the three were completely drawn into the dreamland, Leo had to change his original plan. He originally planned to create some illusions in the dreamland, making the three think that the sacred artifacts that protect them and False artifacts are things that harm them, making them throw away the holy artifacts and false artifacts in a state of sleepwalking.

But now the spirits of the three were pulled into the dreamland without any resistance, which made the mental resistance of the three infinitely zero, and Leo had a better way to deal with them, such as taking the The image of the lord of turbidity and lightness is projected in the dreamland.

At the beginning, when Leo saw the image of the lord of turbidity and lightness, because he was still in a state of mechanical mind similar to that of a biochemical human, he did not receive much imagery, but for ordinary people, let alone the image of the turbidity and lightness. A foreign god like the Lord, even a demigod or quasi-god like the Eye of Reality who has not taken the last step, will be mentally impacted by a tsunami when they face it directly. What will be the final result, Leo It's not very clear, but he knows that the situation will definitely be bad.

But now his prediction has become a reality, the situation of the three targets can be described as bad, or light. Leo saw with his own eyes how the spiritual condensate of the three was destroyed by the illusion of the Lord of Turbidity and Lightness. It was twisted into countless fragments, most of the spiritual power disappeared under the impact, and the remaining spiritual sources were fused together after being fragmented, forming three completely distorted monsters.

And these three twisted and deformed spiritual monsters are reflected in the bodies of the three people, they are crazy and crazy, and Leo feels that this is not the last change of the three spiritual monsters created by the dreamland, he thinks there will be follow-up situations.

Leo really wanted to stay and see what changes would happen to the three of them in the future. This would provide useful reference materials for him to further improve the dreamland technique, but he also knew that he couldn't stay because the news of the accident of the three of Viscount Kemp was very fast. It will soon spread in the city, and the Church of the Lord of the Sky in the city must know what is going on. At that time, they may support those people from the Salvation Society, or they may transfer those people to other safe places. No matter what, It's all troublesome for Leo, so he has to get rid of those guys before the news spreads to the Dibia Mountains and saves the resident.

I don't know if it was his luck. When he arrived at the train station, there was a cargo truck ready to drive to the Kingdom's border city in the Dibia Mountains. A direct military column left the city of Hanlock before the royal government took some countermeasures because of the three Viscount Kemp.

Almost at the same time that Leo left Hanlock City, the news of the three Viscounts Kemp had already reached the ears of the relevant people.

"What's going on? Viscount Kemp was fine in the parliament this morning, why did he suddenly go crazy?" Philip III asked in surprise after hearing the official's report.

Compared with Philip III when he was still a prince, although his appearance at this time still hasn't changed much, because of the change of identity, his spiritual temperament has changed greatly, as if he was a different person. When he spoke, he naturally formed a force that made people bow their heads.

"This is not very clear." The official also lowered his head and said.

"Not very clear? You are the captain of the sheriff of Hanlock City. How can you say that you are not very clear about such a big incident?" Philip III was a little dissatisfied with the officials' performance, and then thought for a while, doubting: "Could it be someone sent from the east..."

"Probably not." The official replied immediately: "Everyone who may be related to the empire has been monitored by us, and there will be no omissions. And..."

"And what?" Philip III asked displeased.

"According to the reports of the patrolmen on the street and the plainclothes secret sentry, Viscount Kemp went mad immediately after entering Sir Hansen's mansion, and Sir Hansen and Deputy Secretary-General Roger of the Federation of Trade Unions also went crazy together, because something happened It was too fast, so we suspected that Viscount Kemp had already had an accident before he went to Sir Hansen's mansion, and he probably already had something crazy on him at that time, and he was immediately aroused after seeing Sir Hansen That thing." The official knew that Philip III was on the verge of anger, so he didn't dare to neglect, and immediately explained seriously, and in the process of explaining, he also looked at a young man beside Philip III, and said: "And we It is suspected that the thing that caused Viscount Kemp and the others to go crazy is likely to be a supernatural object, or some kind of supernatural power."

"This is impossible!" The young man immediately denied: "All the important mansions in the city have installed jamming devices, and the devices in the mansions of Viscount Kemp and Sir Hansen are even more up-to-date. We have done it many times. Test, the interference ability of that device will be greatly affected even the bishop of the church, and according to my knowledge, there is a false artifact provided by the Church of the Lord of the Sky on Viscount Camp to protect him. It will definitely not be harmed by extraordinary power, in my opinion..."

"Wait..." Philip III suddenly interrupted the young man, and said, "Your conversations just now seem to be directed at Viscount Camp, and you think Viscount Camp was the first to be attacked. He lent him a fake artifact to protect Viscount Kemp, and you all seem to know that Viscount Kemp will be attacked in advance, what's going on? Why didn't I know someone was going to attack Viscount Kemp? "

The young man and the captain of the sheriff looked at each other, and then the young man said that a radical sect of the Lord of the Sky had decided to assassinate Sylvia's heir. out.

After hearing this, Philip III stared at the two confidants in front of him in shock, and said, "Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing? The church actually assassinated the heir of the highest nobleman in the kingdom. Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?" tell me?"

At the end of the words, Philip III's questioning was almost shouted with anger in his heart.

It's no wonder that Philip III is so angry, not to mention how good his cousin relationship with Sylvia is, just Sylvia's status as an earl, which he has set up as a benchmark, is related to the stability of the country, but now Sylvia The heir of Via was assassinated by the people of the Church of the Lord of the Sky. This incident is serious enough to destroy the stable mentality of the noble class in the kingdom.

Think about it, even a noble like Sylvia who is very close to the royal family and loyal to the king will have his heir assassinated, so what about other nobles, how can their safety be guaranteed?

At that time, the entire noble class will fall into anxiety. Although this kind of anxiety will not make these noble classes betray the United Kingdom and return to the empire, it will definitely affect the development plan of the entire kingdom, and some nobles may even use it as an excuse. Rebuild the private armaments belonging to the nobility.

The anger of Philip III had already been written on his face, and the two people present could only bow their heads and listen to his questioning. Compared with the captain of the sheriff who dealt with ordinary people's security incidents, the young man was controlling a police officer involving the extraordinary for the royal family. The secret department of power, his guilt in this matter is obviously greater, because whether it is knowing the cold handling of this matter, allowing the follow-up actions of the Church of the Lord of the Sky, or concealing the news from others Philip III, any one thing is enough to make him lose his current power.

While lowering his head, the young man was extremely annoyed at his previous decision to be a bystander.

He also had a little selfishness in making this decision at the time, because the department he is in charge of now is actually a branch separated from the intelligence department in the hands of Sylvia. It has been almost a year since this department fell into his hands, but so far he The control over this department is still superficial, and he often hears about Sylvia in the department, and is always compared with Sylvia, which also makes him have feelings for Sylvia. resentment.
