The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Although Henry Jones had expected that his hidden identity would be exposed before coming here, and he had already made mental preparations, but after hearing Leo tell his hidden identity, he still couldn't help but panic one time.

In the eyes of most people, Henry Jones is a powerful warrior with a little special ability, able to deal with most attacks, and when encountering a life-and-death crisis, he can often explode with extraordinary potential through certain methods. Let your strength, speed and other overall qualities be doubled, or even several times.

It was this special power and superb fighting skills that enabled him to survive the fights in the underground world and start his own slave trading business.

Although Henry Jones has shown the potential to burst out many times in his past experience, there has been no conclusion as to whether he is a transcendent, and even the information on the black market is also vague, because like The ability to suddenly burst out potential that he showed, ordinary people can also do it through some special medicines.

However, only a handful of Henry Jones' real friends know that he has some magical abilities and is a superhuman, but there are very few people who know that he is a wizard. Only he himself knows his true identity.

"He's a wizard?" Sylvia turned her head to look at Leo with some doubts, and then looked up and down at Henry Jones. Although she knew that Leo couldn't make a wrong judgment on this matter, she was still a little confused.

Sylvia has come into contact with many wizards, whether it is the half-baked wizards in the wizarding hall, or the blood wizard Lawrence, who has already deserved the title, and even Leo, who is not much different from the tower wizard. The wizard, perhaps because she has been in contact with a lot, she can feel a special temperament in the wizard. Ordinary wizards have this kind of temperament, and Leo also has it, and even the previous Carson Sanjes has some.

Although she didn't know how this temperament came about, she was sure that this temperament was unique to wizards, just like a clergyman who possessed divine arts would have a sacred temperament no matter how wretched they looked.

But the Henry Jones in front of him now looked like a big, round, well-built old soldier, with no sign of a wizard at all, let alone his temperament.

"If my guess is correct, he should be a wizard from the Bloodstripe School?" Leo answered Sylvia's confusion and said.

"Bloodstripe School?" Sylvia, who was reminded, immediately remembered the relevant information of this school, then looked at Henry Jones with some surprise, and said, "No wonder you can't see that you are a wizard, so you are this The successor of the school."

Henry Jones knew why Sylvia was surprised, he could only laugh at himself and said nothing.

The bloodstripe school of wizards appeared for a very short time, only thirty years. Its founder was not a wizard, but a clergyman of the Church of the Lord of the Birth and Death of All Things. This clergyman studied some of the collected After the wizard books, combined with the very popular oracle priesthood of the Lord Church of the Birth and Death of All Things at that time, a wizard of the Bloodstripe School was created, and the emergence of this kind of wizard mainly exists to hunt wizards, cultists and witches. It can be said that He was the loyal dog hunter of the Church of the Lord of Birth and Death at that time.

Because of this, the wizards of the Bloodstripe School have never been recognized by orthodox wizards since the day they appeared, and even after their demise, no wizards wanted to recover this lost wizard secret.

The reason why the Bloodstripe School has only existed for a short period of thirty years is because the artificial wizards themselves have very fatal flaws. In addition to the extremely high fatality rate during manufacture, those successful Bloodstripe School wizards also have When using the special witchcraft on his body, his mind will be infected by the special power in the witchcraft, and he will gradually become crazy, and eventually become a bloodthirsty lunatic.

Thirty years can be said to be the limit for the minds of the bloodstripe school wizards to maintain normality. At that time, the Church of the Lord of Life and Death, who had not noticed the flaws of the bloodstripe school wizards, was raided by the bloodstripe school wizards who lost control of their minds. Several senior clergymen who would become popes died in the disaster.

So when all the wizards of the Bloodstripe School were recovered and eliminated by the Church of the Lord of the Birth and Death of All Things, the method of making such wizards was also destroyed.

Leo saw the information about the bloodstripe school wizards from a high tower wizard's notebook. The high tower wizard was obviously interested in this kind of bloodstripe school wizards, and thought that if the influence on the mind could be eliminated, it might be able to Use this kind of bloodstain school wizard to create some warriors for safety protection and increase the wizard's protection power.

Therefore, a lot of relevant research materials were recorded in that notebook, but the owner of the notebook obviously did not put much energy into the research on the wizards of the Bloodstripe School. It's over, and there isn't a systematic order of research.

Leo just memorized some of the contents, and repeated several experiments mentioned in it, and after discovering the flaws of the wizards of the Bloodstripe School, he didn't continue because there were other things worth studying. The research went on.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that he would see a living wizard of the Bloodstripe School in the border city of the wasteland, and he was also a wizard of the Bloodstripe School whose mind had not been affected. some interest.

"From your experience, it is not difficult to guess that you have been a wizard of the Bloodstripe School for at least forty years, but you are still normal and not crazy. How do you avoid the influence of wizard power on your mind?" Leo said Shi asked the other party curiously, but felt it was inappropriate, and added: "Of course, if you don't want to say it, there's no need to say it, I'm just a little curious."

Henry Jones said directly: "It's no secret, the reason is actually very simple, that is, my will is strong enough to resist this level of influence."

"Is it a firm will? Indeed, it is possible." Leo nodded upon hearing this, and Sylvia at the side also re-examined Henry Jones, and no longer simply regarded him as a slave trader.

Leo had also left some experimental records about the Bloodstripe School wizards in the lighthouse of Castle Black, and these records were brought to the New Porto area by Sylvia along with other materials.

After the blood wizard Lawrence came here, Sylvia also asked Lawrence to try to create the blood-striped school wizards, but the results all ended in failure, but she had read all the experimental materials, so her understanding of the blood-striped school wizards , although not as good as Leo, but far more than the average person.

She knew that the wizard of the Bloodstripe School is a kind of man-made wizard. The method of making it is very simple, that is, tattoo the root of Turing that can produce different powers on the body with a very special potion, and then tattoo a special wizard method array, connecting these Turing radicals into a whole.

Except for the different materials, this production method is almost exactly the same as building a wizard tower. It uses the root of Turing and the wizard circle to endow an object with extraordinary power with no power. wizard tower.

There are three difficulties in the production method of the bloodstripe school wizards. One is the choice of Turing radicals. Only when the appropriate Turing radicals are selected, will the Turing radicals not be incompatible with themselves to produce a backlash effect.

The second is the selection of materials used for tattooing. Although the production method of this special potion is the same, the final effect of the potion will be very different due to the difference in material selection. Once the wrong material is used, let alone stimulate There are blood marks, I am afraid that he died of poisoning or allergic reaction when he got the tattoo.

As for the last one, the wizards of the Bloodstripe School will be attacked by their own wizard power anytime and anywhere. Most of them will go crazy within ten years, a few people can last for twenty years, and they can last for thirty years. There is only one record from the church, and it can be said that Henry Jones, who has been able to support for more than forty years, is still sane and has not done anything extraordinary, which can be said to be unprecedented.

Henry Jones said that all this was because his own will was strong enough to resist the influence of these forces on the mind. Leo would not believe this, and neither would Sylvia. In their opinion, perhaps Henry Jones's will played some role, but there must be other reasons that really helped Henry Jones survive the spiritual erosion of more than forty years.

However, although they were curious about the secret, Leo and Sylvia did not continue to ask. After all, this is related to the survival of the other party. If you continue to ask, you will either not get any answer, or you will turn your face completely.

Sylvia didn't continue talking about the bloodstripe school of wizards, but shifted back to the main topic and said, "I came to you this time to buy some slaves from you."

Seeing that Sylvia didn't continue to ask, Henry Jones also breathed a sigh of relief, then casually glanced at Leo at the side, then immediately turned back and asked, "How much do you want, I will prepare it for you right away. "

"One hundred thousand." Sylvia quickly said a number.

Henry Jones immediately showed a shocked expression, and then said with some dissatisfaction: "Don't make such a joke."

"I'm not joking." Sylvia said to the other party very seriously: "This is only the first batch of people, and I will continue to buy more from you in the future, and it will end when it reaches at least two million, that is, Said that we should have a fairly long period of cooperation."

Henry Jones was completely stunned. Looking at Sylvia's serious expression, he couldn't help confirming again: "Are you really joking?"

"Do you think I came here to find you in person just to joke around?" Sylvia asked back.

"Of course not, of course not!" Henry Jones shook his head repeatedly, then stood up and walked back and forth in the room, seeming to be thinking about how to complete the human trafficking that Sylvia mentioned.

Undoubtedly, such a large amount of two million slave transactions is definitely the largest transaction he has ever made in his life. If all the slave transactions in his past life were accumulated together, it should almost just exceed this number, and now According to Sylvia's words, she intends to gradually complete the two million slave transaction in a few years. Such a large transaction involves too many aspects, and if there is a slight error in one link, it will affect to the deal.

For example, how to find the source of goods for more than two million slaves? Although there are countless tribes in the wasteland, the large tribes have hundreds of thousands to millions of people, and the small tribes have thousands of people and two million people. It's easy to gather the number, but the problem is that he has the courage to capture two million tribal slaves. If he really does, then let alone stay in Beberante , I'm afraid he won't even want to live on.

Secondly, there is the issue of the delivery of slaves. Obviously, it is impossible for Sylvia to pick up the two million slaves from Beberante, and he must be sent to the New Porto area. Even if they are delivered in batches, at least There are several thousand people, plus the guards transporting slaves, etc., at least five or six thousand people per team.

In the past, as long as a team of five or six thousand people did not pass through the main cities and only took some wild smuggling routes, it would not attract too much attention, and if the checkpoints on the road were set up, they would hardly encounter any trouble .

But this approach is not feasible now. In order to defend against mutated monsters, checkpoints are everywhere in various countries. It is impossible for five or six thousand people to pass by without a sound, and if they take the road in the wild, the movement of five or six thousand people will inevitably If the mutant monsters are caused, most of the number of people will be lost after they finally reach the New Porto area.

The other most important point is that his current power is far from what it was before. In the northern tribal alliance, he may still have something to use, but after leaving the wasteland, the channels he left behind have long since expired. Now, the controllers of those channels don't even talk about returning the resources in their hands to him. If he dares to appear in front of those former subordinates, he may only be betrayed and betrayed.

After weighing the pros and cons, Henry Jones' reason has already made a decision, which is to reject the deal, but reason is not the main factor in people's decision-making in many cases, and the huge benefits that this deal may bring have already aroused Henry Jones' greed made him want to ignore the decision made by reason.

Henry Jones, who was vacillating in his heart, seemed to want to make a choice by weighing Sylvia's trading conditions, so after thinking for a while, he asked seriously: "Ma'am, what do you plan to use for the transaction? "

"The latest weapon produced by the Dodd Group, and the real wizard potion." Sylvia gave the answer, and when Sylvia's voice fell, Leo on the side took out a bottle of wizard potion very cooperatively, Put it on the table.

Henry Jones stared at the potion, and after a while, he said slowly: "Give me two days, and after two days, I will give you two answers."

After finishing speaking, he seemed to run out of the room, as if if he stayed in the room for a while, he would completely fall into greed.
