The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Impossible, he can't wear the crown of thorns." Leo thought for a while, and rejected Bailu without hesitation.

Sylvia was also slightly relieved when she heard the words. To be honest, she was really hesitant just now, whether she should agree for Tolan, because the white stag represents the blessing of the Black Forest, and she will wear the crown of thorns for Tolan, whether it is The hidden effect or the superficial effect are too great.

With just a little bit of manipulation, she can stabilize the hastily established Bodo Kingdom, and she doesn't need to buy slaves to increase the population of the Bodo Kingdom. Anyone who hears about the White Deer's blessing will take the initiative to seek refuge Come here, because the blessing of the white deer represents orthodoxy, and even the Church of the Lord of the Sky cannot deny this.

If this kind of thing was placed on Sylvia herself, Sylvia would definitely agree without hesitation, because she would never use the power contained in the crown of thorns, so the side effects would not exist.

But Tolan is different. Although Tolan is not an ordinary person, through Sylvia's teaching and the wizard potion left by Leo, he also possesses a certain degree of blood power, which is barely a buy-in. The world of the extraordinary.

But Tolan's power is not strong. Once facing other extraordinary people, he will definitely need to borrow other powers, and the crown of thorns that can summon powerful Hessian creatures is his best weapon, plus the crown of thorns itself possesses the temptation Sylvia suspects that if the crown of thorns falls into the hands of Tolan, it may not take five years for Tolan to be sucked away by the crown of thorns.

It's just that the effect brought by the crown of thorns was too great, and she was fascinated for a while, which made her hesitate. Now that Leo quickly responded, she also came to her senses, and nodded in agreement.

Regarding this, Bailu didn't say anything, it seemed that Leo would make such a decision completely in his expectation.

However, there was still some regret in his eyes, and he said with a little deep meaning: "What a pity, I always feel that choosing your family as the owner of the crown of thorns is far better than choosing other people."

This sentence sounds fine, but both Leo and Sylvia are extremely sensitive people. After hearing Bailu's words, they immediately had a nearly identical association in their minds.

Sylvia couldn't help but asked, "Has the Black Forest chosen a new owner for the Crown of Thorns?"

Bailu didn't answer, just smiled, and got down on his golden platform.

Although she didn't get a definite answer, Sylvia couldn't help but continued to ask, "Is that person in the Mosang Continent?"

Bailu still didn't answer, but his gaze shifted to the north.

Seeing Bailu's performance that wasn't even a hint, Leo and Sylvia couldn't help but glance at each other.

Although the white deer didn't say anything, both Leo and Sylvia understood the meaning of the white deer. Obviously, in the near future, a person wearing a crown of thorns will re-emerge in the Velen Continent. This person may reunify the Velen Continent. Start a new dynasty.

For the two of them, this incident is not a good thing, but it is not a bad thing either.

In their view, even after such a long period of turmoil in the Vinylon Continent, the level of civilization has already degraded for hundreds of years, but the foundation of the Vinylon Continent is still there, not to mention the support of the Black Forest. The extremely strong posture returns. At that time, even the deep Mozambique continent will be more or less adversely affected.

But in the same way, if there is a new dynasty in the Velen continent, it will definitely attract the attention of the whole world. Everyone will definitely pay attention to this new dynasty, and will focus on preventing the establishment of the new dynasty. The Faran Empire, the strongest empire in the world of Vilen, has disappeared. No country wants to have another strongest empire on top of their heads, especially the country like the Kingdom of Megalica. Therefore, with the emergence of this new dynasty, the Kingdom of Bodo It will be able to retreat to the second line and have the time and space for stable development.

After thinking for a while, Leo said, "Although you can't give Tolan his blessing, I still hope that you can participate in Tolan's coronation ceremony, even if you just stand aside and watch."

"Yes." Bailu did not refuse, nodded, and then he said: "If I were you, I'd better go to the church of Lady in the Lake, maybe I can get a good response."

"Lady of the Lake?" Sylvia frowned slightly, and said, "But because of the relationship between the Lady of the Lake and the Kingdom of England, she..."

Bailu reminded: "Have you forgotten that the state religion of the Kingdom of England is the Church of Sea God?"

After being reminded by Bailu, the two of them remembered this matter. Before, they had subconsciously ignored one thing because of the stories about the Lady of the Lake in the Kingdom of England and the folk belief in the Lady of the Lake in the Kingdom of England. The thing is, the relationship between the Church of the Ladies of the Lake and the Royal Family of England is not very good. The Church of the Sea God was also launched by the Royal Family of England to counter the influence of the Church of the Ladies of the Lake among the nobles.

But now, although the Lady of the Lake Church is spread all over the world, there is no official country that has established the Lady of the Lake Church as the state religion. It is not known whether this situation happened unintentionally or because of some kind of force.

Although the Lady in the Lake Church’s restrictive power over the world of Velen is far from comparable to that of White Hart, its influence is much greater than that of the emerging White Hart Church, and only a few churches such as the Church of the Lord of the Sky can match it , so if the Lady of the Lake Church becomes the state religion of the Bodo Kingdom, its short-term effect will be greater than that of the White Hart Church.

"But what about you?" Leo thought for a while, and couldn't help asking in doubt: "If the Ladies Church in the Lake becomes the state religion, what about your White Deer Church?"

Facing this question, Bailu didn't answer, but just smiled.

At this moment, Sylvia seemed to realize something, and turned to look to the north, and Sylvia's actions were also seen by Leo, and she seemed to understand.

Obviously, the new dynasty that will appear on the Velen Continent in the future will be the ultimate affiliation of the White Hart Church. This made both of them feel a little displeased, as if the child they gave birth to finally became someone else's.

Bailu also seemed to see through the thoughts of the two of them, and gave a statement that was equivalent to a promise, saying: "You don't have to worry, no matter how the world situation changes, some things will not change."

The slightly dignified expressions on the faces of Leo and Sylvia also eased a little. Sylvia also seemed to have made up her mind. She gestured to Leo, then bowed to the White Deer and left the Deer Park Temple with the people. , it seems that they should go to the Holy Church of Lady in the Lake Church located in Hope City.

Seeing Sylvia leave, Bailu snorted dissatisfiedly: "What an unlovable woman, she doesn't even have any intention of hiding it, if I'm a little bit stingy, I will definitely hate her behavior just now .”

Leo didn't respond to White Deer's complaints, because he remembered another thing at this time, and then took out the stone and book he got from the wasteland, put them in front of White Deer, and asked: "Master Bailu, do you know what these two things are?"

At first, the white deer glanced at these two things indifferently, but soon it seemed to notice something, with a very obvious look of surprise on its face, and moved its head close to the stone and the book carefully. Looking at it carefully, the expression on his face became serious, and after a while he asked Leo, "Where did you get these two things?"

Although Leo had long been aware of the magic of these two things, when he saw the change in Bailu's expression, he faintly felt that his evaluation of these two things might still be low.

Facing Bailu's inquiry, Leo told Bailu how he got what he wanted to see here. When he heard that the book came from the wizard of the tower, Bailu's face showed such a look, but in After learning that the stone came from a slave auction house, he showed a confused expression.

However, after hearing that the shaman of the northern holy mountain chased Leo because of this stone, the expression on the white deer's face gradually changed to contemplation.

Leo didn't disturb Bailu's meditation, but just sat beside him and waited quietly.

It took a long time before Bailu recovered from his contemplation, and then the tree demons on both sides of him signaled to let them leave, and then he cast a spell to turn the temple into an isolated field, and then said: "My lord, although He is the Lord of the Black Forest, but he cannot fully control everything in the Black Forest, and there are some places in the Black Forest that even our Lord cannot touch."

Leo subconsciously pointed to the stone and the book, and said, "Did they come from an unreachable place?"

The white deer nodded and said: "Those places are forbidden to me, I can't touch those places, so I don't know much about those places, I can only confirm that the stone should come from some known characteristics. in those places, and the book has a passage leading to one of the forbidden places."

Leo picked up the stone and looked at it, and asked, "Does a random stone falling from that place have such magical power?"

"Of course not." Bailu shook his head and said, "This stone is not an ordinary stone. This stone is the remains of a powerful god, a powerful god from a certain forbidden world."

"The remains of the gods?" Leo was stunned for a while, and then looked carefully. He really couldn't see any relationship between this stone and the gods, but he still chose to believe Bailu's words. With the magical effect of eliminating all power, the remains of the gods are more in line with common sense.

Bailu paused for a while, and then said: "Generally, the gods that appear in the forbidden area are the outer gods from the endless chaotic starry sky."

Leo was stunned when he heard the words, and seemed to think of something, and said, "Is the forbidden area in the Black Forest a forbidden area because of the Outer God?"

Bailu did not answer this question, but his attitude had already given Leo the answer, and then he seemed unwilling to say more about the stone, and instead put the topic on a book with a certain world passage, saying: "I It is guessed that this book should be the result of years of research by the tower, and the final destination of the tower wizard is also related to this book."

Leo was puzzled: "Didn't all the tower wizards perish in the wasteland?"

"How is that possible." Bailu looked at Leo with a strange look, as if wondering why Leo would ask such a stupid question, and said: "Think about the masters of those towers back then. No one is weaker than you, and it is impossible for your life to be in danger to enter the depths of the wasteland with your strength, let alone them."

Leo said: "They may also have left this world from the edge of the world deep in the wasteland."

"If that's the case, I'll know where they are going." The white deer answered Leo's question with a very certain tone, and then said: "The tower has been looking for a way to leave the black forest. The forest is a cage that imprisoned them, and outside the Black Forest is a free world, so no matter what kind of sorcery the towers use, opening space rifts and capturing space debris are their core technologies."

At this time, Leo thought of the passage from Venaya Port to several stable subspace fragments, and couldn't help wondering: "The tower wizards are just humans in the world of Velen. With limitations, how can they master such advanced spatial knowledge?"

"Yes, the tower wizards are all humans of this world, but the people who built the tower are not, and the things left behind are not products of this world," Bailu explained, and then looked at Lei with deep meaning. Ou, said: "Just like you, you are both a person of this world and not a person of this world."

Leo was not too surprised that Bailu saw his real situation. After all, the behaviors and cognitions he showed were very different from those of people in this world. Let alone Bailu, even a little People who are close to him may be able to see a trace of abnormality, but no one can be as sure as Bailu.

However, Leo is more concerned about another matter at the moment. This matter is the creator of the tower mentioned by Bailu. People from the cosmic civilization may even be from the Earth Federation. After all, if they are not human beings, they will be targeted as monsters if they are seen in the past, and there will be no towers.

"Is he human?" After making a guess in his heart, Leo still asked like a white deer in order to avoid mistakes.

"In a sense, it's human." Bailu didn't give a definite answer, but when he said this, he looked at Leo.

At this moment, a bold idea suddenly appeared in Leo's mind, and he asked in a deep voice, "Am I him?"
