The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

The death of a large number of mutated monsters guarding the gate will inevitably be sensed by the divine power domain covering the entire mountain stream, but before the core of the divine power domain responds, Leo has already rushed out of the abyss of the mountain stream.

After leaving the realm of divine power, Leo stopped, looked back at the entrance of the mountain crevasse, had some guesses in his heart, and also revised some decisions.

Originally, Leo was planning to find a way to tell the Church of the Lord of the Sky about the things in the abyss of the mountain stream, so that the church of the Lord of the Sky and the God of the Eagle Eagle who might be parasitic would start a conflict on the surface, and even put all the people in the entire Velen Continent. The Church is also attracted to this conflict, lest these Churches have nothing to do and focus on those bullshit World Destroyer legends.

But when he discovered that many of those mutated monsters might be the senior priests of the Church of the Lord of the Sky, his thoughts changed a little, because he felt that the Nephitian usurped the authority of the Lord of the Sky through the God of the Eagle. It's not just the unilateral and secret actions of the Nephilim in the abyss as he thought. It is very likely that the high-level leaders of the Lord of the Sky Church have colluded with the Nephitian a long time ago.

Those high-level leaders of the Lord of the Sky Church not only sent the necessary manpower and material resources to the Nephites, but even sent the clergy of the church to serve as sacrifices or experiments.

If this is the case, Leo's going directly to the high level of the Church of the Lord of the Sky in the Dibia Mountains is probably a self-inflicted act, because the high level of the Dibia Mountains is likely to be one of the internal agents. And the Rescue Association was arranged here as an abandoned child. After all, it would be troublesome for such an uncontrolled and troublesome department to be placed in anyone's hands.

As for why the top leaders of the Church of the Lord of the Sky are willing to become internal agents, it is nothing more than because of things like gods and miracles.

With the retreat of the gods, the miracles displayed among the believers were also seen very quickly, and even later had to let those believers of the gods show their magic to pretend to be miracles, coupled with the suppression of the religious authority by the secular power, making the various churches The power of the country has shrunk rapidly, less than one-tenth of its heyday.

Under such circumstances, the remains of the Eagle God, who can help the Church of the Sky Lord to perform various miracles at any time, naturally become the lifeline of the Church of the Lord of the Sky, and more importantly, the God of Eagle is the predecessor of the Lord of the Sky , so using the remains of the eagle god to show the miracle of the sky lord is not a violation of belief, at least it makes sense logically.

Therefore, Leo had reason to suspect that a group of core priests of the Sky Lord had already colluded with the Eagle God, and the evidence was undoubtedly the miraculous records of the Sky Lord Church in the Velen continent.

You must know that when this god retreated, all churches, even those underground churches of evil gods, rarely performed miraculous things in religious ceremonies. The Church of the Lord of the Sky often performed miracles in religious gatherings, which also made the Church of the Lord of the Sky spread its beliefs in the Velen Continent very quickly, and eventually became the head of the three major churches in the Velen Continent.

Although the Lord of the Sky is definitely a powerful deity among the gods in the Velen world, he will definitely not be much stronger than the king of the hill and the lord of the birth and death of all things. Even the Lord cannot perform miracles frequently when the gods retreat, so He certainly cannot do this, so the miracles performed by the Lord of the Sky Church in the past probably did not originate from the Lord of the Sky, but from the Lord of the Sky. The remains of the eagle god.

If this conjecture is true, then the Church of the Lord of the Sky in Velen Continent may have been corrupted.

As for why the holy city of the Church of the Lord of the Sky in the Mosang Continent didn't care about this, and even gave the Church of the Lord of the Sky in the Velen Continent a certain degree of autonomy, it was probably because they felt that this matter would do more harm than good to them.

Because no matter who caused the miracle, for believers and ordinary people, it is the divine power of the Lord of the Sky, and the name of the god they pray is also the name of the Lord of the Sky, and the ultimate belief will also fall on the Lord of the Sky The church itself, this can be seen from the fact that the Church of the Lord of the Sky in the Mozambique continent has expanded its influence several times due to these miracles.

While thinking about the ins and outs of the matter, Leo walked towards the village built by the Salvation Society. When he turned over a small hill and could see the whole picture of the village in the valley, he stopped and looked down at the dilapidated The village looked over.

As he expected, under the action of his potion, all the members of the Salvation Society in the village mutated, and lost their minds and attacked each other, and finally died together, leaving only the stumped limbs scattered all over the village.

Leo usually checks the situation of the village through the spirit network as a routine. He knows how effective his medicine can be, and he doesn't think there will be survivors, but things are often unexpected, because his spirit network is very strong. A survivor is soon discovered, a survivor who has taken control of the mutated body.

I saw that among a pile of corpses, a senior priest of the Lord of the Sky, whose lower body was a myriad and the upper body was a human, was trying hard to control his pair of pliers-like hands to transform back into human arms, but his practice seemed to exist. Defect, after the arm changed back to normal, it changed back quickly.

After trying several times and knowing that his method was unsuccessful, the senior priest seemed very frustrated. Then, as if he had made a decision, he quickly moved to the corpse of a completely mutated monster, hesitating a little. Suddenly, a heart was pulled out from the corpse's chest, and then it was eaten like this.

After eating the heart of this mutated monster, the senior priest's body turned red as if it had been steamed, and it took a long time for it to subside.

At this time, the senior priest once again used his method of controlling the mutated limbs. As a result, the big hand that took the mutated quickly changed back to the form of a normal person under his will, and did not change back.

Leo was a little surprised when he discovered this, because the way the senior priest improved his ability to control mutations gave Leo an inspiration. He realized that the mutation potion he made did not fail, but succeeded, and the reasons for those failures were all It is because the medicine effect is too strong and too good for normal people to bear. It is necessary to dilute the medicine effect by other methods, and then gradually increase the concentration of the user's own mutated medicine.

This senior priest eats the hearts of those mutated colleagues, which is a way of diluting the effect of the medicine.

In this way, under the supervision of Leo, the senior priest mastered the mutant power in his body bit by bit by eating the heart of his mutant colleagues, allowing himself to return to the form of a normal person.

However, the senior priest who had returned to his normal human form did not show any joy because of this. He sat on the ground and stared blankly at the corpses of the mutant monsters around him, and eventually passed out due to exhaustion both physically and mentally.

Leo walked down from the hillside at this time, came to the dilapidated village, and came in front of the senior priest. He didn't wake up the comatose senior priest of the Salvation Society, nor did he arrest him. After checking the other person's physical condition, he took some blood from the person and turned to leave.

It has been nine days since Leo returned to Randall. The reason why it took so much longer to come back than to go is because all cities in the United Kingdom have entered a state of martial law, and every train needs to undergo various inspections. , although the outside world has not circulated any reason for the country to enter the state of martial law, but Leo feels that it should have something to do with what he did in Hanlock City.

However, this kind of martial law is obviously more like expressing an attitude to the outside world. It is not true that this kind of martial law can catch people who make the speaker of the House of Lords and other senior officials crazy. In fact, the person who issued the decree is also very clear. For this reason, those inspections were not particularly strict. Leo didn't even change his appearance, he just showed the ID of the intelligence department staff that Sylvia got, and he was let go.

On the way back to the black city of Bo from the train station in the suburbs, Leo did not hide any whereabouts. Those who were hiding in the dark and snooping naturally saw the scene of Leo coming back from the outside. A secret channel was sent to the hands of caring people everywhere.

At the same time, the news that something happened to the temporary village of the Salvation Society in the Dibia Mountains also began to spread among the various churches in the world of Velen, and many smart people compared the time, and then compared it with the railway station. It is not difficult to guess what Leo has done these days.

However, even so, they couldn't take any action against Leo, because everything they did was just speculation without any evidence.

But compared to those who care about what Leo did, there are some people who are more concerned about how Leo's silence caused the Speaker of the House of Lords and others to go crazy, and the method that caused the members of the Salvation Society to mutate.

If it was an ordinary person, these caring people might have already taken Leo away, and then slowly asked the other party about the methods, but Leo is not an ordinary person, no matter his strength or revenge, It is enough to be in awe of any force. If it is not necessary, no one will be against Leo, or more correctly, against Leo and Sylvia.

Before Leo returned to Castle Black, his news had already spread back to the castle. At this time, the servants in the castle thought that Leo was alone in the laboratory doing experiments, so they all thought it was just a rumor at the time. Taking it to heart, they didn't realize that the rumor was true until they saw Sylvia holding little Tolan and little Irene at the gate of the castle.

The carriage passed through the gate of the castle and stopped not far from Sylvia. When Leo got off the carriage, Sylvia greeted her with a smile and asked, "You're back!"

"Well, I'm back." Leo nodded in response, then hugged the two little guys from Sylvia's hands, and walked towards the main castle while teasing them.

After the two returned to their room, Leo changed into simple clothes under the service of the servants, and then ordered the servants in the castle to leave, and then told Sylvia carefully about his experience during this period .

At the beginning when she heard what Leo did in Hanlock City, Sylvia didn't show too much surprise. After hearing Leo's handling of the Salvation Society, she also seemed very calm, because she received relevant information. When he heard the news of saving the village, he could guess what method Leo used to destroy that village.

However, when Leo later said that he had explored the abyss of the mountain stream and discovered the plan of the trinity of the Nephet, the God of the Eagle and the Lord of the Sky, her face became more and more serious.

"What kind of existence is that Nephet you mentioned?" Sylvia couldn't wait to ask after Leo finished speaking.

"They come from the starry sky." Leo pointed to the sky, thought for a while, found a suitable metaphor, and said, "It's like a herd of deer in the Black Forest."

"Family of the gods?" Sylvia confirmed.

"No, it's the protoss." Leo corrected it, and said in Gamore language.

"Protoss?" Sylvia, who could also understand Gamorei language, was stunned for a moment, with a look of confusion in her eyes, because the word Protoss does not exist in the languages ​​of the world in Velen, but Gamorei and a few other ancient languages The language has the word protoss, but the linguists in the world of Velen equate the protoss with the family of the gods, so Sylvia didn't understand why Leo repeated her words for a while.

"It's the protoss, not the family of the gods." Leo emphasized again.

"Protoss? Is there any other meaning?" Sylvia looked at Leo with some puzzlement.

Leo thought for a while, and explained: "The Protoss is a group of gods. The gods come from this group. Anyone in this group has the opportunity to become a god."

Sylvia couldn't help but gasped when she heard the words, and stared at Leo for a long time, not knowing what to say.

Leo's words had a great impact on Sylvia, because in the religious view of the world of Velen, any god is unique, so gods can only have family members they favor, and cannot have other family members.

Now Leo told her that there is actually a group of people who have the potential to become gods. This concept is far beyond all her previous cognition.

It took a while for Sylvia to recover from the shock. She suppressed the abnormal emotions in her heart, calmed herself down as much as possible, thought for a while, and said, "What do they want to do?"

"I don't know." Leo shook his head, was silent for a moment, and added: "However, according to what I know about them, if they succeed, then we will all become their slaves."

Hearing what Leo said, Sylvia also seemed to understand what Leo meant, picked up the bell on the table and shook it, and after the butler walked in, she quickly wrote a few invitations, handed them to the butler, and told him Immediately sent to several places, and then continued to play with Little Tolan and Ai Ling as if he had forgotten about it.
