The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Who is he?" After receiving Leo's notification two days later, when Sylvia came to the laboratory to pick up the new constitution potion, she happened to see Brutal lying on the bed, and asked Leo suspiciously. road.

Leo briefly explained the origin of this experimental subject.

When Sylvia heard that this person was still alive after enduring the fatal attack of the long-night monster, and that his body had a benign mutation, she immediately became curious, and checked the other person's physical condition through her method.

"What about his body..." Sylvia, who quickly discovered the abnormality of this person's body, showed a look of surprise on her face. She wanted to ask what was going on with this person, but she didn't know how to describe her discovery .

"Crack." Leo expressed his thoughts on behalf of Sylvia, and said, "I have been using potions to supplement the energy needed for his body's mutation these two days, so that his body can stabilize in the mutant state, and I don't know Is this phenomenon caused by my medicine, or is it because his own mutation is in this direction? In short, his current situation is very strange, as if he is in the gap between two spaces, and one space is normal Vinylon World, another dimension is the long-night Vinylon World."

"Yes, that's how I feel." Sylvia nodded in agreement, and then asked in confusion, "Isn't this all the world of Velen?"

"It is indeed the world of Vinylon, but it is not the world of Vinylon." Leo explained, but the explanation sounded like no explanation, and it was difficult for people to understand its meaning. Maybe he also knew that his explanation was wrong, so he left Arrived at an experimental table, motioned for Sylvia to go over.

I saw a rune magic circle engraved on this experimental table made of stone, and in the center of the magic circle was suspended a residue that Leo got from the long-night monster. It was kneaded into a ball, but its surface was not wrinkled meaninglessly, but some mysterious-looking symbols. These symbols emitted bursts of strange-looking black rays of light, and these rays of light were captured The surrounding rune magic circles gathered together, converging on each energy node of the rune magic circle.

I saw that Leo took out a few remnants from his pocket and threw them into the rune magic circle. The few remnants did not fall on the ground, but were suspended in the air, and were pulled by some kind of force. Concentrate towards the residue located in the center of the rune magic circle. When a few pieces of residue touch the center of the residue, they immediately melt into it like drops of water falling into a pond, and the rune magic circle also It started to operate as if it had been injected with some kind of power, and the light from each energy node of the magic circle shot out a black light, which gathered in front of Leo, forming a light curtain.

At the moment when the light curtain was formed, Leo pulled Sylvia into the light curtain.

Although Sylvia felt that the light curtain was extremely dangerous and she might die if she entered it, but out of her trust in Leo, she did not hesitate and was led into the light curtain by Leo.

Nothing strange happened when passing through the light curtain, just like passing through a layer of mist, there was no abnormal feeling on the body, and the surrounding environment did not change, it was still the same laboratory, not far away The experimental subject was still lying on the platform, it seemed that Leo's behavior just now was just a meaningless action.

But Sylvia soon discovered something was wrong, that is, the skin color of the experimental subject lying on the platform seemed to be a bit wrong. Although the skin color of the experimental subject was not very white, it was the same as most of the workers. He was a little tanned, but at the moment the subject's complexion was very dark, just as dark as the Natanu, an indigenous ethnic group in the Mozambique continent.

Sylvia, who noticed this abnormality, couldn't help asking Leo, "What's going on with us now?"

"The explanation is not clear, you can see it." Leo did not explain, but led Sylvia to the outside of the laboratory, and pointed to the sky.

Because it was at the bottom of the quarry pit, when Sylvia came out from the entrance of the laboratory, he didn't see anything abnormal until he followed the direction of Leo's finger and looked up. It's not in Velen world anymore.

Because the sky is no longer the sky, but a pitch-black void. There are countless lands floating in the void. These lands are tumbling irregularly, but they will not collide with each other. The void is filled with the monsters that appeared with the long night.

And what surprised Sylvia even more was that the land floating in the void seemed to be fragments of the city of Aodorine. It looks like a bunch.

"Where is this?" Sylvia looked at everything in front of her in shock and asked in a deep voice.

"The Vinylon world is just the Vinylon world in the long-night space." Leo explained in a way Sylvia could understand: "The darkness formed during the long-night period should actually be some kind of subspace debris, but This subspace debris is very special. It is a piece of subspace debris captured and fused by the world of Velen. The long night period is a special phenomenon that occurs when this piece of subspace debris and the world of Velen are in a special position. It is covered by the long night period. The zone will be pulled into this warp space debris, but the power of Velen World itself will pull that zone back, so that the zone is in a state of superposition."

Sylvia didn't fully understand what Leo said, but she could understand what Leo meant. She thought for a while and asked, "How will this affect us?"

After hearing this, Leo was silent for a while, and said: "Because of the special force field generated by this superposition state, we will inadvertently travel through the two worlds, and the consequence of passive travel is that we will randomly encounter people in this subspace plane. monsters, or being infected by the power here, etc., but these are only temporary, once the subspace debris and Velen world are out of this superimposed state, then everything will return to normal." He turned around and pointed The laboratory said: "However, there is an exception now. The physical state of the experimental subject is in this superimposed state, and it is not temporary, but permanent."

"Isn't that the same as Su?" Sylvia quickly thought of Su Dao who was known as the Lady of the Night.

"It looks the same, but it's different in essence." Leo shook his head and explained: "Su herself is still from the world of Velen, but she can use her witch power to open a hole into the world of shadows, and let herself Transformed into a creature of the shadow world, she walks through it. But when her powers weaken or disappear, she can no longer maintain this disguise, and either she will be swallowed by the shadow world, or she will be thrown out of the shadow The world. The situation of that person is completely different, he can live forever in this warp space debris, and he can also live forever in the world of Velen, without any additional power and disguise."

Sylvia quickly thought of something from Leo's words, and guessed: "Does that mean that if that person masters this ability of his own, he can use his special state of the body as the origin to create whatever he wants? Out of the long night period, and summon the monsters of this world to the Velen world?"

"Not only can do this." Leo nodded, and added: "If he can really fully control his own power, then he can even make the power of the entire subspace debris work for him, not just It's just borrowed or summoned, because in a sense, he should be the master of this subspace debris."

Sylvia couldn't help taking a breath when she heard this, and said, "Isn't that like a god?"

Leo also nodded in agreement: "If he can completely control his own power, then he may really be a god in this subspace world."

"Maybe?" Sylvia heard something in Leo's words and looked at him suspiciously.

Leo continued: "This subspace fragment has an owner, but the owner doesn't know if he is dead now."

After speaking, Leo took Sylvia's hand and injected the power of the eye of truth in her spiritual vision into her body, helping her see the truth of the world.

Just after the numbness of the eyeballs caused by the power of the Eye of Reality subsided, Sylvia also saw what Leo wanted her to see, which was the reality of this world.

I saw an incomparably huge meat ball suddenly appearing in the empty sky. This meat ball seemed to be a part of the void. Although Sylvia couldn't see the details of the meat ball clearly, she could feel a kind of aura from the meat ball. A strong sense of oppression, and the urge to kneel down.

Sylvia suppressed the discomfort and asked, "What is that?"

"A slain god." Leo said in a deep voice.

"Who killed it?" Sylvia asked curiously.

"Me." Leo gave an unexpected answer.

After hearing this, Sylvia stared at Leo with wide eyes, as if looking at something rare.

"Don't look at me like that, I'm not wrong." Leo smiled, and then saw a phantom of a stone throne appearing behind him, and at this moment, the whole space seemed to be touched by something Like a mechanism, it vibrated violently, and there were countless cracks in the surrounding space that looked like knives and axes. These cracks divided the entire space into countless fragments, and each crack contained the power of a stone throne. , the power aura of these stone thrones resonated with the power aura of the stone throne on Leo's body.

What Leo showed surprised Sylvia, but what surprised her even more was that at this moment, she didn't feel any power like a god on the fleshy ball in the air at this moment, but felt an inexplicable fear , as if the fleshy ball was afraid.

At this time, Sylvia also understood what Leo was referring to, which made her curious about the origin of the stone throne.

Leo quickly took back the power of the stone throne, and everything around him returned to calm, and at this time a black light rushed out of the laboratory like a scanning light curtain, sweeping across the two people at the entrance, although the quarry The scene of the pothole has not changed in any way, but the world outside the quarry has returned to normal, the sky has turned into a pitch black sky again, there are no more suspended land fragments, no longer long-night monsters wandering around, the two People have returned to the world of Velen.

"What are you going to do with him?" Sylvia asked when the two returned to the laboratory.

"I'm also thinking about how to deal with him." Leo said with some regret: "Originally, I planned to train him. This kind of advantage should make him a powerful extraordinary person, but unfortunately my potion can only be given to him. The body provides enough energy for mutation, but it can't help his brain, his brain has been damaged during the mutation, and now he is equivalent to a living dead."

Sylvia stared at Leo with some doubts in her gaze, and said in a deep voice, "Was it intentional, or..."

"Do you think it is necessary for me to intentionally break his brain?" Leo asked back, and then said: "Although his power has great potential, it is only potential. Potential does not mean that there is a future. World of Vinylon How many geniuses die halfway, not to mention that there are many people with the same potential as him in the world of Velen, and he is just one of them."

Sylvia didn't say anything, but instead asked, "What do you think?"

"There are two ways to deal with it." Leo said in a deep voice: "One is to extract his blood and make it into a blood medicine to see if he can transfer his ability to other people. , then we will be able to have a powerful transcendent. Another method is to make his power into a wizard wonder through a special method, so that the person who holds the wizard wonder can temporarily use his power, just If you do this, then the potential of this power will disappear, as much as his power is now, the power that wizards and wonders can use."

"It sounds like it would be better to extract the blood." Sylvia thought for a while after hearing this, and then asked: "What is the defect of the blood medicine?"

"I don't have much experience in this kind of bloodline refining, there is a high chance of failure, and there is also a possibility of failure in making bloodline potions. After all, this kind of bloodline power is very unique and contains the power of two worlds. If you are not sure If it is well balanced, it will lead to collapse." Leo explained the difficulty of this matter, and said: "In addition, people who use the blood potion may also fail, because no one can be 100% sure that after the blood potion is used, the user will There will be no fatal rejection reactions."

"It seems that the blood potion has a high probability of failure." Sylvia hesitated.

Leo thought for a while and said, "I operate more than 80% of the operations myself. If others... have no chance of success."
