The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Badisa has been one of the most important cities of the Silvermoon Tribe for a long time, and it is also one of the main sources of income for the Silvermoon Tribe. However, in this case, a new tungsten deposit was discovered from Hydelan, and it was still an open-pit mine. Afterwards, a transformation occurred.

The geographical location of Hydelan is next to the Sacred Mountain Avenue, and it is also at the junction of the northern and southern tribal alliances. The transportation is extremely convenient. Ore merchants prefer to buy on the spot in Hydelan. Almost Hydelan has dug out the ore, and there are buyers on the same day. shipped them away.

On the other hand, after hundreds of years of mining in Badisha, the mineral deposits need to be dug deep underground, and the transportation is not very convenient, and the dangers encountered in going deep into the wilderness and jungle have also increased exponentially, so the ore merchants gradually gave up. As a result, Badisha declined.

Of the thirteen mines owned by Badisha, only three are still in operation, and most of the people who still choose to come to Badisha to buy ores are those who can't get the goods from Hydelan, so they have to take a long way here. a trip.

Because of the decline of Badisha, the trains that originally transported ore have also been greatly reduced. From the busiest period, six trains a day to the current four-day train, and they are also used for cargo and passengers.

The luck of Leo and Sylvia was not very good. When they came to Badisha, the nearest train had just left Badisha full of guests and goods, and the next train would not arrive until four days later.

Of course, Leo and Silvia didn't need to wait until four days later, they could directly hire a team of hunters to lead them to the southern holy mountain.

However, Leo did not plan to leave in a hurry. Even if there is a train leaving Badisha now, he will not leave Badisha immediately, because he chose to come to Badisha and then go to the southern holy mountain, mainly because of another thing Something, something he should have done more than 20 years ago, but has never been done, found old Rembrandt.

Back then, when he learned that Old Man Rembrandt had discovered a prehistoric civilization in the wasteland, Leo planned to come to the Mosang Wasteland to see what remains of the prehistoric civilization that Old Man Rembrandt discovered, but it was a pity that later Accidents disrupted his plans, especially the fact that Sylvia was pregnant and gave birth, which was completely an accident within an accident, which prevented him from going to the wasteland as planned.

Afterwards, the accident of staying in Sea God's World delayed the trip for more than 20 years. Now that he has returned to Velen, the news he got from Sylvia was that during the foggy year more than 20 years ago, Rembrandt The old man disappeared in the ruins that the expedition team was excavating, and even the passage leading to the ruins collapsed.

Although the Shamanic Holy Mountain and the Yinyue Tribe and other tribes at that time also sent people to rescue them, they couldn't get through the collapsed passage. In addition, after the fog disaster, the appearance of mutant monsters completely changed everyone's survival rules. , In the end, the rescue was nothing.

Although Leo doesn't think Rembrandt is still alive now, he still wants to see if there is a way to find Rembrandt's body, so he didn't choose to take the Sacred Mountain Avenue, but went directly through the wasteland The jungle comes to Badisa, because the last ruin where old man Rembrandt was in is in the abandoned mine of Badisa Tungsten Mine.

The discovery of that relic was also an accident, because no one thought that there would be a relic of a prehistoric civilization hidden in a tungsten deposit.

There are thirteen mines that can still produce mines in Badisha, but there are more than one hundred mines that have been abandoned. Just like the people of Badisha said, their city is built in a labyrinth On the mine road, the land below the city is criss-crossed with passages.

No one knows exactly how deep the mine has been dug. Some people have entered the deepest mine and walked all day and night without reaching the end. Some even think that the mine may have been dug to the bottom of the Dajiao River, because there are several The mine roads all extended towards the Dajiao River, and they were all abandoned because the mines were flooded with water.

The mine where the relics were dug out was located at the edge of the mine far away from the Dajiao River. At the beginning, the mine had been included in the list of abandoned mines, because the ore content produced by that mine was not high. I feel that the ore It has been dug.

A few days before it was ready to be completely abandoned, Kuangong suddenly dug out a closed underground cave, and then went down to the bottom of the cave, and found the ancient ruins of the prehistoric civilization. It is in the natural tungsten ore deposit, which is still a mystery.

The old man Rembrandt was invited to study this relic at the beginning. Although the old man Rembrandt is not the best expert on the relics of prehistoric civilization, he is the discoverer and the best researcher of Rembrandt. It is said that a large number of Rembrandts have been found in the remains of civilization.

Rembrandt was discovered by the old man Rembrandt from a relic of a prehistoric civilization buried in yellow sand when he was adventuring in the desert of the Savile Kingdom when he was young. According to the rules at that time, this newly discovered text was named after him. Come on, as for the ruins that were later buried by yellow sand in a big sandstorm, they couldn't be excavated afterward.

One is in the easternmost desert of the Minsk continent, and the other is in the mines in the wilderness of the Mosang continent. Two prehistoric civilizations that are thousands of miles apart and have no similarities in civilization characteristics use the same prehistoric civilization script. This is the mystery. Attracted by the old man Rembrandt, he decided to give up his comfortable life and go deep into the wasteland to study the relics of the former civilization.

I don't know whether this decision is right or wrong, because if the old man Rembrandt hadn't come to the Mosang Wasteland, then he would probably die in the series of disasters that followed in Miria City, but then again, As a senior member of the Heterogenetic Society, coupled with his relationship with various forces in the ground and the underground world, even if something happened to Miria City, he should be able to leave calmly, and now he might still be living somewhere instead of being caught Trapped in the ruins.

Perhaps because he knew that if Leo came to the Mosang Continent, he would definitely take this trip, so after arriving in the Mosang Continent, Sylvia has been collecting and collecting old Rembrandt, and the expedition team back then, and All the information on the prehistoric civilization site was sorted out not long ago and handed over to Lei Lou.

So just after getting off the boat, Leo and Sylvia did not wander around the city, but went directly to the area where the mining area outside the city was located. According to the information Sylvia collected, they found the mine that had been completely abandoned. .

"Huh? They are..." However, when the two arrived near the mine, they unexpectedly found that the place didn't seem deserted.

The battle caused by a group of small mutated monsters is ending, and the mercenaries are besieging and killing the last few mutated monsters. Although there are mercenary corpses among the corpses on the ground, most of them are the corpses of mutated monsters.

A solid camp was built on the edge of the mine passage. The walls of the camp were built according to the scale of the city walls of small towns. Not only were they five meters high, but there was also a two-meter-wide soil interlayer in the middle, and some only Cannons that use special shells only in big cities like Audrin.

It doesn't take too much time to observe. It can be easily seen that the construction time of this camp may not be short. The buildings inside the camp are almost similar to a small town, and the camp builders have also set up a small town in the middle of the camp. A flagpole with a striking eye-in-the-hand flag was hung, and Leo happened to know the origin of this flag.

"School of Hearings! Those guys still don't give up on this ruin!" Sylvia looked at the people dressed as scholars in the camp with some disdain, and said angrily.

That's right, the people who built the camp here and continued to dig the ruins are members of the Mystery Society, and the main force in excavating and researching the relics was also the Mystery Society, and old man Rembrandt was invited by the Mystery Society to participate in the research on the ruins.

"This camp has been built for at least a year." Leo looked at Sylvia meaningfully, and said, "It seems that you need to clean up the Dodd Group, especially the department responsible for intelligence collection."

"Yes." Sylvia nodded in agreement.

The reason for saying this is because among the documents Sylvia handed to Leo, the latest one about the current situation of the ruins was half a year ago, and that camp did not mention this camp.

According to the current state of the camp, the camp may have been built half a year ago, but the intelligence collectors turned a blind eye to such an eye-catching camp. It’s just that the person who collected the information didn’t collect the information at all. The information was all fabricated. After all the information collected for so many years, there was no response from Sylvia’s side. This would make some people who like to be lazy mistakenly think that Sylvia I have forgotten the things here, and the collection of information is also self-written and perfunctory.

No matter what the situation is, it is a very serious problem for Sylvia, and a targeted large-scale purge is naturally inevitable.

"What should we do now?" Sylvia turned around and asked.

"I have no way to enter the mine without disturbing anyone." Leo said bluntly.

Just now Leo has quickly and comprehensively inspected the situation of the mine leading to the ruins. The interior of the mine is not very big, and some people have been involved, and some traps for early warning and Turing roots for defense are also arranged. circle.

Although the security arrangement inside this mine is not the strictest that Leo has ever seen in terms of security, but because of the small environment, unless Leo can turn into an insect, it will be difficult to pass through those mines silently. Guards and guards.

Seeing Leo's affirmative answer, Sylvia couldn't help but frowned, then sighed, and said very reluctantly: "It seems that now we have to get in touch with the Odd Academy."

It's no wonder that Sylvia is like this, because that incident made Sylvia and the Mystery Society completely fall out, and Sylvia even directly put all the anecdotes in the New Porto area and other territories controlled by the Dodd Group. All the forces and people of the society have been expelled, and the relationship between the two parties has not been repaired so far, and it only stays at the level where they can greet each other.

Now she has to contact the Abnormal Academy again, and she still takes the initiative, which makes her feel uncomfortable.

"It's not necessary," Leo shook his head, and said, "Since there is no way not to alert anyone to enter the mine, then we just need to alert anyone to enter the mine."

Sylvia froze for a moment, and said, "You mean to go in directly?"

"Of course." Leo nodded, and asked back: "I remember that the mine and the ruins in the mine don't seem to be the private property of the Hearsay Society, right?"

Sylvia shook her head, and said, "Of course it can't be a private property. If people from the Heterogenetic Society dare to speak up, the Silvermoon Tribe will drive them out of the wasteland."

Non-tribal people request to buy private property in the wilderness. This kind of thing is absolutely taboo in the wilderness. You must know that the colonists used this method to cheat a lot of land from the wilderness tribes who were still in a state of ignorance at that time. , this matter is regarded as the biggest humiliation by the whole wilderness tribe, so that "I will buy your land" has become the biggest humiliating word for the wilderness tribesmen. A duel to the death.

"Since this is No Man's Land, we can naturally go in." Leo said while walking towards the entrance of the mine in the distance.

Sylvia also showed a smile, quickened her pace, and walked to Leo's side, holding Leo's hand like an outing.

The two bypassed the mercenaries who were clearing the battlefield. These mercenaries were busy collecting the corpses of their colleagues, and earnestly harvested the valuable parts of the mutated monsters. This was their extra income other than the commission. Unaware that two people walked past their defense line and came to the entrance of the mine.

The Abnormal Society obviously attaches great importance to the ruins in the mine. They have deployed a team of mercenaries here to guard them, and have also set up secret sentries at some key points inside the mine. Most of the mercenaries at the entrance went to help, only two people were still left at the entrance, but their minds were all on those colleagues who harvested the spoils at the moment, their eyes were full of envy, because they did not participate in the battle, so This time the spoils were distributed without their share.

It was also because all the attention was on the battlefield on the other side that Leo and Silvia were not noticed until they got close.

When they saw Leo and Sylvia approaching, they didn't show any panic. They seemed very natural. They all instinctively thought that they were scholars from the Hearing Society in the camp, so they didn't immediately issue a warning or trigger a defense alarm.

However, when they saw the appearance of Sylvia and Leo, they were immediately puzzled, because the scholars in the camp were those people, and they had seen them countless times, and the two in front of them obviously no longer remembered them. list.

And just when they were about to say something to Leo and Silvia, an uncontrollable sense of dizziness instantly spread throughout their brains, and they fell to the ground involuntarily, falling into a deep sleep.
