The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"You don't need to say anything, I can just extract the memory from your mind." Leo stared blankly at the bishop of the Lord of the Sky Church in front of him. Wrapped and imprisoned his body, and at the same time continuously formed interference energy, preventing the divine power in the bishop's body from condensing and stimulating.

As he spoke, he saw that he raised his hand and put it on the bishop's head, with a faint light emitting from the surface of his palm.

Although Leo didn't show any emotion on his face, he was very angry inside. Originally, he was just a little puzzled when he found out that the bishop of the Church of the Lord of the Sky left the checkpoint camp suddenly, and also felt that this move might have something to do with him, so he secretly Use the spirit net to monitor the opponent's actions.

However, the other party got in touch with other people through the ground wide-angle communicator and had a conversation, but the content of the conversation actually included the preparation to assassinate Sylvia, which made Leo feel annoyed instantly, and immediately used psychic power Wing flew out from the checkpoint camp, and landed silently behind the bishop.

Leo didn't intend to ask the other party about specific things. After the return of the gods, the people who can become the bishops of the church are without exception the most devout believers of the church. If these devout believers get anything useful from their mouths, maybe the other party will take the torture they have suffered as a test of the gods and never tire of it.

In addition, senior clergy at the bishop level are already able to use some forbidden magic. When they encounter threats that cannot be avoided or dealt with, they will definitely use this kind of forbidden magic. Although Leo is not afraid of this kind of forbidden magic, he also I don't worry that this kind of magic can endanger my life, but in that case, the surrounding movement will be too loud, and some people will be attracted to interfere with my acquisition of information.

So from the very beginning, he planned to use some memory neuron extraction techniques that could also be regarded as taboo skills among psionic skills.

This kind of psionic skill is a psionic skill developed by a humanoid alien race. After being used, it can directly extract memory data from the subject's brain. The side effect is that it will permanently damage the subject's brain, and the defect is only for Races that use the brain as a memory and control center are effective, while some alien races that use cells as the core of memory storage are not affected at all.

At this moment, the bishop completely lost his composure. He felt that his body was stuck in a rock, unable to move. At the same time, the divine power in his body seemed to disappear. This feeling seems to be abandoned by the gods.

However, before he could figure out whether he was abandoned by the gods, or whether he had fallen into some kind of evil spell, he felt a wave of power coming from the palm covering his forehead. Countless small knives rushed into his brain, cutting his brain recklessly.

While feeling a sharp pain like his brain being blasted, he also felt that the memory of the past was being torn apart bit by bit, being pulled out by the palm on his forehead.

At this moment, he couldn't think normally, and he couldn't make any resistance, he couldn't even scream in pain, he could only keep opening and closing his mouth, like a fish stranded by the river.

The whole process of performing the technique was soon over. When Leo moved his hand away from the other party's forehead, the other party had already fallen to the ground, his body twitching uncontrollably, his eyes lost any shape, and his mouth was even worse. There were moans and ravings that didn't make any sense, and it felt like a dementia patient.

Leo stopped at the spot for a while, calming down the complex memories he had extracted a little bit, soothing his swollen mind a little, then he bent down and cut a hole in the neck of the bishop who had been completely abolished, and then used The spiritual energy dispersed the blood flowing from the neck into a blood mist, and guided it to a group of carnivorous beasts captured in the spiritual net. Soon the bloody smell was smelled by the group of beasts, and they rushed towards the source of the bloody smell .

Leo restrained his aura, spread out his psychic wings and flew into the air. It didn't take long to see the group of beasts caught by him rushing towards the bishop.

However, although the group of wild beasts couldn't wait to tear up and devour the creature in front of them, they seemed to have some concerns that made them dare not speak.

Leo, who witnessed this scene, immediately understood that it was because the bishop's divine power still had a threatening effect. This threatening effect might not be able to affect mutated monsters, but it still had a strong effect on ordinary wild beasts.

Just when Leo was thinking about how to dispel the divine power of the bishop so that these wild beasts could clean up his traces, there was a commotion in the wild beast group, and there was a not very big one in the wild beast group. The carnivore suddenly swelled rapidly, expanding more than ten times, and at the same time, its body began to rapidly mutate into a distorted shape, and bursts of violent aura emanated from it.

At the moment when he noticed the abnormality in the beast group, Leo's mental network had already captured the details, and instantly understood that it was a hidden mutant monster in the wild beast group. By confronting the divine power of the bishop, Leo stimulated the body's mutant energy , and then a mutation occurs.

Although Leo has seen some mutated monsters along the way, this is the first time he has seen the process of an ordinary beast mutating into a monster. Naturally, he will not let go of such an opportunity to observe, so the mental network concentrated infiltration Get inside this rapidly mutating monster and capture every mutation in detail.

Soon the monster's mutation was over. The small carnivorous beast whose height was only knee-high now swelled ten times and was now similar to a small hill. Its body was covered with various protruding bone spurs, and its muscles were turned outwards. Streams of acidic mucus continuously ooze out, and its head is completely replaced by a big mouth full of sharp teeth.

After the monster mutated, it did not eat the bishop who had no resistance immediately, but mouthed other wild beasts around it that hadn't escaped. The tentacles that flew out of its mouth were like steel guns, killing those who had no time to escape. The beast pierced through, pulled back instantly, and swallowed the beast.

After eating the previous beast of the same kind, the mutated monster came to the bishop. It didn't eat the bishop immediately, but walked around the bishop twice, as if it still cared about the divine power in the bishop's body. But at the same time, it doesn't want to give up the deliciousness in front of it.

In the end, the monster couldn't bear its devouring instinct, opened its mouth wide, and swallowed the bishop and the land around him in one gulp.

The monster that swallowed the bishop seemed not satisfied, and was looking for the next prey. It quickly smelled the smell of living people coming from the checkpoint camp. Just when it was about to rush to the camp to eat, the running body suddenly heard After falling down, he trembled violently uncontrollably, and then saw rays of light turning into sharp blades, penetrating through the monster's body from the inside out, cutting the monster into pieces in an instant, revealing that the stomach of the monster had been digested. Much the same remains of the bishop.

The divine protection spell on the bishop caused a huge commotion. The scattered light was as eye-catching as a searchlight in the dark night. Such a striking movement naturally spread to the checkpoint camp. Most people who saw this scene did not understand What's going on, but the people of the Church of the Lord of the Sky know very well that this is the scene after the protection magic in the senior priest's body is activated, and the protection magic will only be activated when life is in danger.

This also made the hunting team of the Lord of the Sky Church discover that their bishop was missing, and then they learned from the checkpoint soldiers that the bishop had left the camp not long ago, which made them immediately realize that something happened to the bishop, so they rushed to the light Where the outbreak occurred, check the situation.

Although the relationship between the hunters and mercenaries in the camp is not very good with those of the Church of the Lord of the Sky, they also know that if there are any terrifying monsters outside the camp that can put a bishop-level clergyman in danger, then They might be in bad luck if they encounter one, so they organized themselves without any hesitation, and followed the church's hunting team to the scene of the incident.

However, the checkpoint camp did not send anyone to check the situation, not because they were not curious about this matter, but because their task was to protect the camp and regularly clean up the beasts and monsters around the camp, while other things were not Among their missions, the uncompromising faithful execution of mission orders has long been written into their blood. No matter how curious they are, they will never let go of the mission in hand to satisfy their curiosity.

As for the fire dancer caravan, they also saw the light erupting in the forest, but Bran also sent some people to the scene of the incident with hunters and mercenaries to check the situation, and at the same time kept the guards of the caravan on alert Always be ready for any battle that may arise.

After giving orders to his subordinates, Bran suddenly thought of something, his face became a little ugly, and he hesitated for a while, then turned around and walked outside the small room arranged for Leo, and knocked on the door.

"What's the matter? Mr. Bran." When the knock on the door fell, Leo's voice came from the room, and then he saw the door open, and Leo appeared behind the door, looking at Buan with some displeasure. orchid.

After seeing Leo, the worried expression on Bran's face disappeared immediately, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and then responded: "It's nothing, it's just rumors in the camp that something happened to the bishop of the Church of the Lord of the Sky, so I came to see look……"

"You want to see if I did it, don't you?" Leo directly pushed Bran's mind away and said.

Bran didn't deny it, nodded, and said, "After all, you had some skirmishes with the church's hunting team before, so..."

Leo chuckled and said, "You also said that it was just a small conflict, and I haven't suffered a loss in the conflict."

"Yes, I'm overthinking it." Bran also smiled awkwardly.

Seeing that things were not as he thought, Bran did not continue to disturb Leo's rest, and left after apologizing.

After closing the door, Leo lay on the bed, continued to sort out the memory fragments extracted from the bishop's mind, and quickly searched for all the information related to Sylvia.

At the moment when the divine protection spell on the bishop erupted, Leo knew that the movement here would definitely attract the attention of the people in the camp, so he immediately vibrated his psionic wings and flew back to the hut in the camp. He just changed his clothes , Lying on the bed sorting out memory fragments, Bran, who was suspicious, came to the door, and only then did he have the conversation just now.

On the other hand, people from the church have already arrived at the scene of the incident, and saw the remains of the monster, and the bishop who was half digested and completely dead during the monster's maiming. Naturally, people from the church were extremely shocked by this, because they I always think that the rest of the hunting team is dead, and the bishop who is the leader of the hunting team will not die either.

Although in terms of combat effectiveness, the two holy warriors are the strongest in the hunting team, they often face all kinds of monsters, and they will not be defeated in the face-to-face attack of monsters, but the hunting team, including the two holy warriors, also think that the bishop He is the one with the strongest survivability in the team, because most of the magic spells mastered by the bishop are used to save life. With these life-saving magic spells, he can completely escape from any danger.

However, now the bishop's mutilated remains tell them that no matter how many life-saving magic spells there are, they are useless.

At this time, the hunters, mercenaries, and fire dancer caravan guards who followed the church hunting team also came here. After seeing the remains of the church bishop and the remains of the monster, they were all shocked and worried. .

At the same time, the experienced people quickly discovered that there were no traces of fighting around, so this was not the place where the bishop had an accident.

So they told the hunting team of the church about this discovery, and assigned people to search for the place where the bishop's accident happened. Soon they found a small mound not far away, and judged from their experience that this should be the place where the bishop's accident happened.

However, after discovering the location, the various traces around the small mound are extremely confusing.

The hunters and mercenaries didn't need to explain more, the people of the church could also find something wrong, for example, the surrounding battle marks were very small, it looked more like a monster attacking a wild beast, and there was no trace of the bishop fighting.

However, a piece of human-shaped grass on the ground and the footprints of the monster next to the grass clearly told everyone that the monster had eaten a person lying here, and from the trace of divine power remaining on the grass, it can be confirmed that the person who had no resistance The person who was eaten was the bishop who had now digested most of his body.

"That monster is so powerful that a bishop can be eaten without any resistance?" At this time, someone couldn't help but whispered to the person beside him with doubts in his heart, and because of the quiet environment around, other people could also Hear this question.

This question is also the question in their hearts.

Someone responded in a low voice: "Maybe there is! Maybe that monster can just restrain the divine power of the Lord of the Sky, maybe."

Soon everyone's eyes were focused on those members of the Church of the Lord of the Sky, and the faces of the members of the Church were extremely gloomy at the moment.
