The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

The strength shown by Leo shocked everyone present. They were all guessing Leo's identity, but after thinking about it, they all showed doubts on their faces, because they couldn't find anyone who agreed with Leo. The well-known powerhouse of the trait.

However, not everyone is ignorant of Leo.

The spirit clansman who led the team has some identity, and he has been paying attention to the power struggle within the Sea God Church for a while, and has some understanding of some of the main figures on both sides, and Leo, who has often appeared by Chrissy's side recently Strangers naturally entered his eyes.

It's just that, because Leo didn't have obvious traits of the sea race's mutation, he ignored him like most other people who paid attention to the internal struggles of the Sea God Church.

You know, almost all strong men in the world of Sea Gods have one characteristic, that is, the characteristics of the sea race are very obvious, so the easiest way to know whether a person is a strong man is to look at his sea race. Whether the organs are obvious enough, whether there is any deviation in the direction of mutation, etc., like Leo, who does not have any characteristics of the sea tribe, but is a very powerful strongman, which is completely beyond the scope of basic cognition. It is also reasonable for the clansmen to make wrong judgments.

"Are you from the Goddess Church?" Although the Spirit Race man recognized Leo, he still cautiously confirmed it.

"Yes." Leo nodded, and then asked a little aggressively: "Aren't people from the Goddess Temple not allowed to visit the Sea God Temple?"

Facing Leo's rhetorical question, the spirit clansman's expression turned a little ugly, he didn't answer, but gestured to the other spirit clansmen, and continued to lead the way.

Although the disputes in the Sea God Church have always been restricted to the church, intentionally or unintentionally, the external forces still pay great attention to the disputes in the Sea God Church, and there are people who choose to take sides in the open and secret.

Because they all live in the vicinity of Mount Santa Trullo, the relationship between the Spirit Race and the Sea God Church is very close, and almost all of these high-ranking church leaders have joined the Holy Church of the Gods, making the Spirit Race innately stand on the side of the Gods Church. That side of the church.

But the voice of maintaining neutrality within the Spirit Race is still very loud, and the Spirit Race member who is currently leading the team is a neutral faction, so when he recognized Leo's identity and faced Leo's questioning, he chose not to do anything. He replied that he neither showed favor nor conflicted with him, and even on the way later, he didn't turn his head to look at Leo, completely treating Leo as if he didn't exist.

The attitude of the Spirit Race people did not exceed Leo's expectations, and they did not ask further questions, but continued to move forward with the team.

On the contrary, other people looked at Leo curiously, because the split into two churches within the Sea God Church has become the most talked about thing recently, but for the people at the bottom, they don't know much about these things at the top. There are many, and we can only collect some rumors. Obviously, there is a person among them. If the environment is not suitable, some of them may have asked Leo related questions out of curiosity.

In this way, the group of people with various thoughts followed the path opened by the predecessors, and continued to walk towards the Sea God Temple in the center. It didn't take long before they walked out of the dangerous twisted stone forest and came to the front of the Sea God Temple.

The Sea God Temple does not exist alone. There is also a city built by the Sea Race around the Sea God Temple. This city is called Buja Luoqi, which means the center of the world in the Sea Race language.

This city was the largest city of the Sea Clan at that time. Its main building was no different from the common city buildings of the Sea Clan. They were all polished black lava stones. For the convenience of entry, the entrances and exits of all houses were on the roofs, and engraved on the outer walls of the houses. Some decorative patterns, and some undersea gardens that have completely withered, are distributed throughout the city.

However, the most eye-catching thing in the city is the obelisks that represent the stone steps conquered by the Sea Clan Expeditionary Army. Each obelisk represents a stone step, and the reliefs on it record various heroic deeds that conquered the world.

As the Sea God Temple rose from the bottom of the sea, the city also rose from the bottom of the sea to the ground. The people of the sea tribe could not adapt to the life on the ground, so they had to abandon the city. The ownership of the city was handed over to the spirit tribe, but they don't know why The Spirit Race who originally settled here chose to leave here in the end, and went to the foot of Santa Truc Mountain to build the Spirit City, and abandoned this city closest to Sea God.

The same situation also happened to the Sea God Church. After the spirit race abandoned the city, the Sea God Church tried to move the main church to this city, but in the end it also gave up, and the reason was blocked as taboo knowledge Speaking of which, not only the outsiders don't know about it, even the people inside the Spirit Race, Sea Race, and Sea God Church mostly don't know about it.

However, the secret of this city is not a secret to Leo, because he has seen related content from the collection of the taboo library.

There is a mysterious unknown power hidden in this city. People who have lived here for a long time will be affected by the power unconsciously. Not only the body will be distorted, but even the mind will be distorted and go crazy. Irreversible, even leaving the city cannot reverse the distortion.

It just makes everyone who pays attention to this matter feel strange that those distorted people affected by mysterious forces will suddenly disappear when the situation becomes worst. Someone has done a test, just staring at those distorted people like this , and even tried to use various extraordinary powers, but the distorted person disappeared out of thin air in front of their eyes, disappeared without a sound, without any warning, and did not sense any power.

However, someone found that every time the distorted person disappeared, there would be a stone sculpture formed of black lava in the city of Buaroch. This stone statue was formed naturally, without any traces of artificial carving.

Because things happened very strangely and there was no solution, the Spirit Race and Sea God Church successively abandoned the city and left the city vacant here.

However, there have been a lot of rumors about this city in recent years. People who come to the Sea God Temple to worship will see some people living in a certain area of ​​the city for no reason after entering the city. It seems that they have lived here for a long time It looked like that, but when he turned his head and looked again, those people had disappeared.

Because the Sea God Temple itself has the power to erase other people's memories, some people think that the power shrouded in the city is actually an extension of the power of the Sea God Temple, one erases memory, and the other erases existence

The entrance to this city is a huge city gate in the shape of a holy arch. After the people of the Spirit Race brought everyone here, they stopped in their tracks. The leader pointed to a straight road leading to the Sea God Temple, and said: "You can go to worship now, but there is one thing I want to remind you, if you feel unwell, don't go on, otherwise, we will not be able to save you in any danger."

Everyone heard the words and looked at each other. They didn't know what to do for a while. Some people's faces were full of worries, while others prayed silently.

However, among these people, there are two people whose expressions are different.

Leo was very calm, as if he hadn't heard what the man said just now.

And the other one is the natural shaman Panshi Gugal. His face showed an excited look, which was completely different from the worry and caution shown when he walked through the Twisted Stone Forest, as if he was in this ancient abandoned city. It was as if he had found something particularly important to him.

Afterwards, Panshi Gugal seemed unable to bear the impulse in his heart, and walked into the city through the arch first. Leo also walked in, and saw that two people had already walked in, and others followed suit one after another. , but three of them stopped just after entering the archway, their faces were full of panic, their eyes were out of focus, their expressions were dazed, as if they saw some horrible picture that others couldn't see, their bodies kept trembling, Some of the already prominent sea-ethnic variations have also become more obvious.

Leo ignored the situation of the people behind him. He was more concerned about the changes in himself at the moment. After he stepped into the city, he could clearly sense a force penetrating into his body, trying to control his body. Make some impact.

However, because there are too many imprints of the gods in his body, this power was suppressed before it could take effect.

At first, Leo thought that this power was the power of Poseidon, but he soon discovered that this power was not the power of Poseidon at all, and might even be an anti-Poseidon power.

The reason why he would make such a judgment is entirely because the Seagod power he imitated with the power of nightmares had the strongest rejection reaction, as if it was an enemy of life and death, just after infiltrating into his body, it was given to him by the fake Seagod power. Found.

Another point is that the Seagod mark in Leo's body also has no resonant response to this force, and also has an extremely repulsive reaction.

The Poseidon mark in Leo's body is derived from his seagod experience in the world of Velen, but his Poseidon mark is incomplete, or just a phantom, unlike other marks of the gods that he can use to perform some magic.

When he entered this world of Poseidon, Leo thought that the mark of Poseidon would change from fiction to reality, but he found that even if he could learn from the followers of Poseidon in this world, the priests of the Church of Poseidon, and even Chris, the descendant of Poseidon Feeling the purest Seagod's power on his body, he kept himself within the influence range of Seagod's power at all times, but the Seagod's imprint in his body remained unmoved, as if the Seagod of the Velen world and the Seagod of this world were not the same Seagod.

However, it is the first time that the Seagod imprint in Leo's body spontaneously reacts against a certain power without Leo taking the initiative, and this reaction is exactly the same as the reaction produced by the Seagod's divine power that Leo imitated, which also makes Leo Confirm that there is nothing wrong with the Seagod mark in his body.

Afterwards, Leo walked quickly along the avenue towards the Sea God Temple against the power seeping in from his surroundings, and soon he surpassed the natural shaman who was one step ahead of him.

When passing by that natural shaman, Leo could feel that the physical condition of that natural shaman was very bad. The mysterious power contained in the city had invaded his body. The fake Seagod's divine power is obviously not enough to deal with this kind of penetration, but the strange thing is that the face of the natural shaman did not show any panic or anxiety. , as if the spirit has completely sunk into some unknown illusion.

Leo didn't intervene to pull the natural shaman back, because even if he intervened, the extremely obvious energy fluctuations on the natural shaman had already been exposed to the eyes of the spirit tribe.

He didn't know why the other party took the risk to come here, maybe the other party just wanted to die here, so Leo didn't plan to be troublesome.

Leo continued to walk towards the Sea God Temple, and soon walked a normal distance, but what happened afterwards surprised him, because when he took a step forward just now, the city scene in front of him was completely blurred. It disappeared, replaced by a piece of deep seabed, surrounded by hideous undersea mountains, a road made of gravel winds upwards, and there is only an empty stone platform where it should be the Sea God Temple.

The most surprising thing is that these scenes are not hallucinations. His mental network can sense the existence of the surrounding seamounts, and his body can feel the strong water pressure around him. He even has to use spiritual energy to make a filter respirator to survive in seawater.

Leo's first thought was that he was teleported to other places by space. After all, from the perspective of various encounters, Sea God is definitely a master of using space ability. It should not be difficult to send a person to another space silently.

But soon Leo denied this guess. He didn't find any clues, but felt that he was not sent to another space, but entered a superimposed space, just like the one in the taboo library that should have been The lost Earth Federation colony star library.

After a little understanding of the surrounding situation, Leo secretly put some protective measures on his body, and then quickly swam towards the huge stone platform ahead that should have been the Sea God Temple through the propeller made by psionic energy.

Soon, Leo swam to the edge of the stone platform, he didn't go any further, because he could clearly feel the danger ahead, as long as he got close, there would be a stormy attack, and he still had The extremely strong feeling in the middle, I feel that my current strength cannot survive this kind of attack.
