The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

It has been two days since the news that Viscount Kemp and others went crazy reached Randall. After reading the relevant information, Sylvia asked someone to send a letter to the Sea God Church in Randall.

In the next two days, the Church of the Sea God and Castle Black joined forces to remove all the eyes and ears sent by the outside forces within the urban area of ​​Randall, including people from the Orthodox Church and the Kingdom's internal intelligence department.

What Sylvia did made people feel dissatisfied and irritated, but no one dared to do anything, or they all waited for others to do something. As a result, a very strange situation formed around Randall. Balanced state.

At this time, some smart people also noticed that there was something wrong with the situation in Castle Black, that is, Leo Dodd, the male master of Castle Black, had not appeared for a long time, not only did not appear in front of outsiders, even the inside of Castle Black None of the servants saw it.

After the relevant news spread intentionally or unintentionally, it was noticed by some people who followed Castle Black. Many of these people keenly connected this incident with the sudden madness of the three high-ranking officials of the kingdom, and some of them knew that the insider More people think of more things, and the attention of these people is also concentrated in the mountains of the Dibia Mountains in the north.

At the same time, Leo has come to Beka Town, a small town in the Kingdom of Dibia Mountain.

Bekaa Town is a newly built town after the establishment of the kingdom. The purpose of building this town is to facilitate the management of all the outpost castles in Dibia Mountain. Therefore, although Bekaa Town is only a border town, the mayor of the town also takes care of Dibia. A position like the Chief of Defense of Biya has jurisdiction over almost the entire Dibya Mountains.

The mayor of Bekaa Town is named Josh Luke. He is a citizen of the kingdom and a knight of honor. He belongs to the kingdom's emerging military aristocrat. In the Yashan Mountains, he is responsible for guarding the western front of the kingdom.

For Mayor Josh, although the western front lacks the fighting on the eastern front, the danger on the western front is no less than that on the eastern front, because what he has to face on the western front are all mutant monsters.

Fortunately, the Kingdom's military department also attaches great importance to the monsters coming from the Miria area, and has sent a large number of people to station in various checkpoints in the mountains. There are still extraordinary people in some key checkpoints. In addition, the latest weapons developed by the Kingdom will also It was handed over to the soldiers on the western front as soon as possible, so the situation on the western front barely remained relatively stable. Even if one or two fish slipped through the net, it would not cause any irreparable damage to the kingdom.

However, since the purging faction of the Church of the Lord of the Sky entered this town not long ago, Mayor Josh felt that most of the power in his hands had been weakened. This was mainly because the Church of the Lord of the Sky sent a large number of devout believers The church is armed, assisting the defense of each checkpoint, and resisting the mutants coming from the Miria area.

For the approach of the Lord of the Sky Church, the people at the bottom and the frontline soldiers all agree with it, because not only the safety of the villages in the mountainous area is guaranteed, but also the chances of survival of the frontline soldiers after encountering danger are much higher.

But for Mayor Josh, the practice of the Lord of the Sky Church gave him a headache, because he could only watch the power in his hands being eroded little by little, but he couldn't stop it.

Although, he also reported this matter to the upper echelon of the kingdom, hoping that the kingdom could prevent the Church of the Lord of the Sky from interfering with secular power, but instead of stopping it, the upper echelon of the kingdom asked him to cooperate with the Church of the Lord of the Sky.

This is mainly because the Kingdom believes that the war between the Eastern Front and the Empire is the most important thing, and the passive defense of the Western Front is enough. Now the Church of the Sky Lord has joined the defense against cross-border mutants, which has greatly reduced the defensive troops on the Western Front. Naturally, they are happy to see the results.

As for the power gained by the Church of the Lord of the Sky, the kingdom does not care, because as long as the Church of the Lord of the Sky does not interfere with the kingdom's military power, it does not matter to give them a little political power.

However, as far as Mayor Josh knows, the Church of the Lord of the Sky has established a village dedicated to the believers of the Lord of the Sky around the thirty-seven outposts at the forefront of the Dibia Mountains. The people in the usual villages are just ordinary mountain people. , farmers, and hunters, when cross-border mutants appear, these people will immediately become Church armed forces, assisting the regular army in the checkpoint to hunt down the mutants.

After several arrests, the armed believers of the Church of the Lord of the Sky were able to perfectly solve the invasion of mutants every time, and the soldiers at the outpost rarely suffered casualties, and many of the soldiers at the outpost were also believers of the Church of the Lord of the Sky , which further enhanced the prestige of the Church of the Lord of the Sky.

Over time, the soldiers at these checkpoints also tend to follow the command of the Church of the Lord of the Sky when performing tasks. Although the nominal command of the outposts has not been taken away by the Church of the Lord of the Sky, in fact the Church of the Lord of the Sky has mastered the three frontiers. Control of seventeen outposts.

Mayor Josh, who is also the garrison officer on the western front, noticed this problem immediately. Now he is planning to submit a report, hoping to attract the kingdom's attention. However, although the report was written soon, it should be handed over. It was difficult for him to give it to whom, because he couldn't figure out which of those people above him could be trusted, and which ones had the ability to intervene in this matter.

"Baron Britt may be a good choice. He was a tough anti-church faction back then!" Mayor Josh sat alone in his office, holding a form in his hand, and said to himself.

Officials at all levels on the kingdom's western front were recorded in that form, and all Mayor Josh needs to do is to select a trustworthy person from among these officials to take over his report.

The Baron Britt selected by him is the general logistics officer of the Western Front Theater. Although he is not an officer in the front line, he is in charge of all the distribution of logistics materials in the entire Western Front Theater. Almost the army commanders in the theater, The military police, generals, etc. all have to look at his face, otherwise he will be a little bit stuck in the distribution of supplies, and then the army targeted by him may not be able to supply supplies.

Baron Britt studied at the Lanxi School of Nature founded by Rupert Fitz in his early years, and later won the title of scholar. He also has a certain reputation in the backbone of the natural science department in Velen Continent. He has written seven papers related to the natural evolution of the world. , is one of the well-known natural science scholars in Vinylon Continent.

Anyone who has a little knowledge of various academic disciplines will know that the Department of Natural Sciences is a staunch anti-ecclesiastical scholar. They believe that the so-called gods are naturally evolved, and human beings are also part of natural evolution. Humans may also become gods, so they should not treat The gods bowed their knees and opposed the church's meddling in secular power, thinking that the church should stay in the prayer room.

It was precisely because of the understanding of the Department of Natural Sciences' attitude towards the church that Mayor Josh decided to hand over the report to Baron Britt after a thousand choices, so that Baron Britt could intervene in this matter and prevent the sky. Episcopal penetration of secular power.

"If I were you, I wouldn't choose him." Just as Mayor Josh stuffed the report into an envelope, wrote the recipient's address and name, and was about to seal it, a man's voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Although Mayor Josh has been sitting in the office for more than half a year, his reaction ability cultivated on the frontline battlefield for many years has not weakened. At the moment when the strange voice sounded, his slightly obese body was like a light deer Flipping over from the desk in front of him, he took out the pistol with the special bullets in his arms at the same time. The moment his body landed on the ground, he had already prepared the action of defensive shooting, aiming the muzzle at the sound transmission. from.

I saw a tall man standing by the window of the office at the moment. Judging from the opened window, the other party should have used some method to climb up to the third floor, opened the window bolt, and entered the room.

Although the other party was pointed at by the gun, the other party did not show a flustered expression at all. Instead, he seemed to be turning against the customer and sat at Mayor Josh's gunpoint very leisurely.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?" Mayor Josh asked very seriously.

Leo didn't answer Mayor Josh's question, but just said a sentence without any meaning, just syllables, and made a gesture to match the sentence.

However, after hearing this sentence and seeing the gesture, Mayor Josh couldn't help but froze, then put down the gun in his hand, and asked with some doubts: "Which one is your Excellency..."

"My name is Leo Dodd." Leo directly reported his name.

Mayor Josh immediately showed surprise, and moved his finger away from the trigger of the firearm, and reinserted the firearm into the holster.

"What are you doing here?" Mayor Josh asked.

Leo said directly: "I want you to help find some people, some senior priests belonging to the Church of the Lord of the Sky."

Mayor Josh was stunned for a moment. He didn't quite know why Leo was looking for the Church of the Lord of the Sky. He obviously didn't know that Sylvia had fallen out with the Church of the Lord of the Sky. In his memory, Sylvia The relationship between Ya and the Church of the Lord of the Sky is still very good.

This made him feel a little embarrassed, because he now regards the Church of the Lord of the Sky as a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh, and wishes to wipe the Church of the Lord of the Sky from the Dibia Mountains immediately, but if Sylvia asks him to assist the Lord of the Sky In the words of the church, this will make him feel very embarrassed.

Leo easily saw through Mayor Josh's mind, and said, "Sylvia's heir was assassinated not long ago. You should have heard of it, right?"

"Yes, I've heard of it." Mayor Josh nodded, wondering why Leo would say this.

Leo continued: "That incident was done by the fanatics of the Church of the Lord of the Sky. The purpose of my coming here is to make them suffer the punishment they deserve."

When Mayor Josh heard this, anger appeared on his face, and he soon calmed down, nodded vigorously, and said, "I know what to do. Who are the fanatics you want to find?"

Leo said seriously: "They call themselves the Salvation Society. After the assassination failed, they were dropped into the Dibya Mountains by the Purification faction of the Lord of the Sky Church. Now they should all hide in the mountains and are not easy to find. "

"Salvation Society? I know." Mayor Josh quickly responded, saying: "Not long ago, the Church of the Lord of the Sky asked my logistics department to order some food and drinks. From their conversation, we can hear that they It was ordered for an internal faction called the Salvation Society, and I think this Salvation Society is what you're looking for."

"Where are they now?" Leo didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and he got the clue right away, so he asked in a deep voice.

"In Bollinger Valley." Mayor Josh thought for a while and said.

"Brin Valley?" Leo frowned, with a blank expression on his face, because he had never heard of the name Brin Valley.

Seeing Leo's bewildered expression, Mayor Josh immediately understood why Leo had such a reaction, so he searched for the latest map of the Dibia Mountains station, sentry tower and village on the table, and explained: "Brin Valley is a new village built in recent months. The builders are believers of the Church of the Lord of the Sky. Not long ago, this village was included in the kingdom's place name list, so many people don't know that there is this valley. "

As he spoke, he spread out the map on the table, then searched quickly on the map, and then he pointed his finger at a place, and said, "This is it, the village in Brin Valley was built in here."

Leo looked at Mayor Josh's finger, with a little surprise on his face, and then looked carefully, with a pensive look on his face.

The reason why Leo has this expression is entirely because he knows where the Bollinger Valley is, and he also faintly feels why the Church of the Lord of the Sky set up a village here and why.

Leo has been to that valley. When he walked through the Dibia Mountains, after he came out of the hidden rift, he had a battle with the family members who ran out of the Black Forest in the valley outside the hidden rift. It was there that he first Once had a close contact with the white deer.

Obviously, the Church of the Sky asked believers and senior priests to build villages in that valley, and their purpose was very likely to be the remains of the Eagle God deep in the mountain fissure.

Although the God of the Eagle has fallen for a long time, its corpse has been corrupted for a long time, and it is full of all kinds of powerful and dangerous negative energy. The bottom of the mountain stream and abyss may even become a monster-filled cave due to the effect of this negative energy. The underground world, but the Eagle God is the predecessor of the Sky Lord after all. If part of the Eagle God's wreckage can be taken out, it is possible to purify it through the Sky Lord's divine power, and the remaining wreckage can be made Become a divine weapon, this kind of divine weapon is not a fake divine weapon, but a real divine weapon.
