The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Space stabilizer?" After obtaining the secret of the operation of Turing's radical circle, the deduction of subsequent changes has become very easy. In just a few minutes, Leo has deduced that the ceremony has reached the later stage , What kind of effect will the Turing radical circle in the lighthouse have, and the conclusion of this deduction is both in Leo's expectation and beyond Leo's expectation.

As expected, the final effect of the root of Turing must have something to do with space in his opinion. After all, the purpose of the ceremony is to open a door to the outer space leading to the Temple of the Sea God, and Leo has already known the tower wizard beforehand. In terms of understanding and use of space, it is not much worse than some medium civilizations in the universe, and even comparable to advanced civilizations in some aspects, such as capturing subspace and transforming it into its own exclusive space, or building a stable civilization. The space passage leading to outer space, etc., so the relationship between the Turing radical circle in the lighthouse and space is completely within Leo's expectations.

However, what Leo didn't expect was that the effect of the Turing Radical Array was similar to that of a space stabilizer. This result was so unbelievable that he almost thought that he had made a mistake after getting the result of the deduction, so he quickly and repeatedly confirmed it. After reading it twice, and observing the subsequent changes during the ceremony, he confirmed that the operation of Turing's radical circle in the ceremony was completely in line with his deduction process, and then he recognized this extremely absurd result in his opinion.

In fact, Leo has seen extraordinary things like space stabilizers before, such as the tunnels leading to personal subspaces built by wizards in the underground towers of Venaya Port, and those portals under Toussaint are all used to The space-like stabilizer of the positioning space, the effect produced by the development of the Turing radical of the lighthouse at present, is no different from those things of the space-like stabilizer in terms of root, but in terms of the energy level of the effect, the two have the same The gap between heaven and earth is as huge as the gap between a fireball and a star, which is immeasurable.

Those space-like stabilizers can only locate a space point with a fixed anchor point, which is like a passage that goes straight forward without forks. However, the space stabilizer effect produced by the Turing radical circle of the lighthouse can Locating any spatial point and producing a stable spatial channel, this effect is a bit exaggerated.

If you compare it with a similar thing in the universe, then only the effect produced by the star rings established by the Supreme Council of the universe in each star field can be compared with it. Of course, this comparison is only relative and does not involve the quality of the transported items.

If you throw away the energy generators added around the star ring in order to increase the total amount of transported items, and compare the total amount of parts used by the star ring to lock the space point and manufacture the basic functions of the space stabilizer such as the channel, these parts All kneaded together are enough to knead into a huge planet ten times the size of Velen's world.

However, now the Turing Radical Array of a searchlight in this lighthouse can do this. If the existence of the Supreme Council of the universe knows about this kind of thing, I am afraid they will also feel incredible, and they will even fight with Leo. At first I thought it was fake.

"Who is the person who arranged this lighthouse?" Leo also had a little doubt in his heart at this time.

Although he has checked the construction supervision records of the lighthouse, he is still not very clear about the actual designer of the lighthouse. He only knows from the records that he is a middle-aged wizard. Although there are speculations about his identity in the records, it does not seem to be true now. Reliable, after all, ordinary high-tower wizards will never be able to arrange such a powerful Turing radical array, and even those high-tower wizards who have left their names in history may be difficult to move, except for one Man, that is Calecius Brick, the man who built the first tower, set the standard for the wizard's tower, and left a lot of signatures inside the lighthouse.

For the life of Karesius Brick, there are very few records even for the wizard of the tower. In the directory of the wizard of the tower, there are only less than ten sentences about him. The founder of the tower, the wizard The makers of the tower construction standards and the like, as for the others, they are rarely mentioned, just like an ordinary tower wizard.

Just think about it carefully, how can the identity of a founder of the tower be the same as that of an ordinary wizard? Obviously, either the tower is deliberately hiding the documents related to Karesius, or Karesius is deliberately hiding his own. ability.

The era of Karesius has been thousands of years away. According to normal circumstances, it is impossible for Karesius to pay back, but there will be an exception. If Karesius can surpass any previous tower wizard , sent his power to the level of Omega-level advanced life forms, and caused his life to undergo a fundamental transformation, then Karesius is likely to still be alive to this day, and it is not impossible to design this lighthouse behind the scenes.

At this time, the sacrificial ceremony on the altar has entered the second stage. The devout believers of the Sea God Church who were selected to participate in the ceremony each hold a box, each box contains a beating heart, and a breath Thick energy emanates from the heart and affects the surroundings, so that those around who do not have extraordinary power can feel the beating of the heart through the box.

Although Leo has no way to use the spirit net, by perceiving the details of the heart energy, he can still judge that the hearts in those boxes should all come from the mutant family, and from the violent and chaotic breath in the energy, it can be judged that those Mutated family members are completely eroded out-of-control mutants.

The sacrifice ceremony of the Sea God Church has existed since ancient times. Like other primitive religions in the Velen Continent, the sacrifices of the Sea God Church were also sacrifices of living people at the beginning. There is a lot less in religion, but some churches still maintain a few special ceremonies that require the sacrifice of living people, and the living people sacrificed are no longer ordinary believers, but some enemy prisoners, criminals sentenced to death, etc. , and even heretics.

The Sea God Church in Randall can be said to be one of the last few churches to preserve living sacrifices. The last recorded living sacrifice of the Sea God Church was a few years ago, and when the United Kingdom of France was established, the United Kingdom All churches were required to cancel human sacrifices, and Sea God Church was the focus of attention, so Sea God Church also had to modify their sacrifice ceremony and changed it to an alternative method.

This method is a living person who is a sacrificer, holding a special item used as a sacrifice for a long time, knowing that the special item is contaminated with the breath of a living person, and then offering that special item in the sacrificial ceremony, to replace the living sacrifices.

In the beginning, Randall's Sea God Church bought some living high-energy substances from the black market as sacrifices, but now they send their own church paladins to hunt down those out-of-control mutants, using special methods Dig out their hearts and use them as sacrifices.

Although this sacrifice method has a hint of blasphemy, after all, it is using fake sacrifices to deceive the gods, but the effect is not much worse than the sacrifice of living people, which has become the sacrifice ceremony of Landauer Sea God Church. up.

As the sacrificial person threw the mutant's heart stained with his own life into the holy water basin on the altar, the sea water in the basin was like some kind of powerful solution, which instantly crushed the mutant's heart. Dissolved, and at the same time a sacred object placed around it lit up like a lighted lamp.

At this time, Leo felt a surge of energy pouring from the altar into the lighthouse, and the Turing Radical Array of the lighthouse began to change, and a trace of unknown power was extracted from the depths of Wanghai Cliff and injected into the altar. The space energy pervading the altar was also driven by an invisible force to gather at the edge of the cliff at the front of the altar, and a space crack leading to the unknown boundary was slowly forming.

However, when everyone was attracted by the sacrificial ceremony, Leo felt a little abnormal, because his extraordinary perception felt that the space energy gathered at the front of the cliff was not pure, and seemed to be mixed with an unknown force. strength.

For this reason, Leo tried to look at the universal recorder on his wrist, trying to see if he could find anything from the energy detection device on the recorder, but he found nothing, not that there was something wrong with the energy detection device , but the space energy produced by the sacrificial ceremony has already exceeded the detection range of the general-purpose recorder.

"What's wrong?" Sean who was sitting on the side was mostly attracted by the sacrificial ceremony, but he still saw the abnormal expression shown by Leo, so he asked with concern.

"It's nothing." Leo shook his head and didn't say what abnormality he perceived. First, it was useless to say it, and second, it was troublesome to explain. More importantly, although he felt that there was abnormal energy mixed into the space In the energy, the space crack was affected, but he didn't feel any danger from it.

Soon the last sacrificial person threw the sacrifice into the water basin, and all the holy objects were lit up, and then all the priests of the Sea God Church stood up, whether they were in the ceremony or those around them, and chanted loudly. What is surprising is that this prayer is not recited in a conventional way, but rather like singing, with a scream that can only be made by a sea animal, singing it loudly.

As everyone's chanting voices gradually reached the same frequency, producing a harmony-like effect, the space crack in front of the altar was also revealed from its hidden state, turning into an oval-shaped void entrance, although the inside and outside of the void entrance were all black. Yes, it blends into the surrounding night, but the strange thing is that the naked eyes of ordinary people can still clearly see the complete form of the void entrance.

At this time, the bishop of the Sea God Church who was performing the ceremony stopped singing, turned around and walked to the surrounding glowing holy objects, took off the holy objects one by one, and then handed them over to the person who was going to the Sea God Temple this time, because people from the Kingdom of England joined Well, a few sacrificers from the Sea God Church had no choice but to give up, and Leo, as the inviter from the Kingdom of England, also got a holy object.

The bishop of the Sea God Church who presided over the ceremony obviously also knew Leo. He was a little surprised that Leo was with the people of the Kingdom of England, but then he seemed to remember Leo's identity, and the surprise turned into relief. Obviously he Mistakenly thinking that Leo would be the helper of the people of the Inge Kingdom because of his Inge identity, not other things.

After Leo took the conch-shaped sacred object in his hand, he immediately felt the unusual power in this sacred object. This power was the one that caught Leo's attention just now. Obviously, this was deliberately done by someone. Infused with that extraordinary power in these relics.

If you look at it this way, there is a problem with the reason for the damage of the previously replaced sacred objects. I am afraid that they were not damaged because of the appearance of that huge figure, but were deliberately destroyed by someone taking this opportunity, and then replaced with these sacred objects. A sacred object with hands and feet.

Thinking of this, Leo looked at the people around him, especially the high-level people of the Sea God Church, because everyone's attention was attracted by the void entrance opened up at this moment, and any thoughts in his heart could not be ignored at this moment. Showed without concealment.

"It's him?" Although he just scanned quickly, Leo saw the expressions on everyone's faces, and after quickly analyzing these expressions, he immediately found one and the only one worthy of Someone who is suspicious, and this person is not the Bishop of the Sea God Church who officially presides over the sacrificial ceremony.

I don't know too much about this bishop, Leo. He just knows that this bishop is a member of the ascetic internal Placid. He has been practicing asceticism outside for a long time in the past. There was a mutation, and the bishop ended his ascetic training early and returned to the church.

However, this bishop usually does not appear outside the church. He stayed in the monastery of the church most of the time. Unable to preside over the ceremony for some reason, he was invited out of the monastery to preside over the ceremony on his behalf.

Now it seems that this notorious bishop is obviously not as simple as it seems on the surface. At least judging from various circumstances, the influence of this bishop in the Sea God Church is not much smaller than that of other bishops, but Leo Some people don't understand what the other party wants to do after spending so much money on the sacred object and presiding over the ceremony himself.

However, this question did not confuse Leo for too long, because when the bishop ordered a qualified sacrificer to go to the Poseidon Temple to jump into the opened void entrance, he immediately understood the bishop's question. the goal of.

In the eyes of outsiders, the sacrificer had already entered the Sea God Temple at the moment he jumped into the void, but in fact the sacrificer had already died in the space pressure at the entrance of the void, because the power of the sacred object in his hand was in his hands. The moment he jumped into the void, he was transferred to the scepter in the bishop's hand.
