The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Have you found anything?" Leo put down the statue in his hand, turned to look at Sylvia who came out of the temporary interrogation room, and asked.

Sylvia responded briefly: "They are spies from the Mist Guide Church, and they are coming for our carriage."

Leo froze for a moment, and said, "It's coming towards us, have we entered the eyes of the high-level neighbors so quickly?"

"You misunderstood, it's not for us, it's for our carriage." Sylvia smiled and said, "They don't know who the people in the carriage are at all, they just learned from recent days The special treatment that came to the carriage felt that there might be a big figure hidden in the carriage, so he decided to take a gamble to see if he could abduct the people in the carriage, or even assassinate all the people in the carriage.”

"That is to say, all this is a misunderstanding?" Leo couldn't help but smile inexplicably and said.

Sylvia nodded, then poured a glass of wine for Leo and herself, sat next to Leo, handed the glass over, then raised her head to the god statue on the table, and asked, "What's the matter?" How is your research going?"

Leo responded: "This is processed with real flesh and blood. It is estimated that the flesh and blood provider is either a fanatic or a family member of the Mist Guider."

"This is consistent with the story written in the church books of the Mist Guider." Sylvia did not show any expression of disgust, but picked up the statue curiously, looked at it repeatedly in front of her eyes, and said : "If you didn't tell me, I would have thought this thing was made of stone. The surface looks like a stone."

The Mist Guide is one of the few ancient churches that have spread widely in this world. In the old continent, it was once one of the three main god churches that surpassed all other churches. However, for unknown reasons, it soon declined. , the number of believers decreased, the parishes disappeared, and they became like ordinary churches. Later, they had to join the ranks of pioneers and came to the New World to open up parishes.

After so many years of development, although the Mist Guide Church is still far from its heyday, it has recovered a lot, and even several countries have established it as the state religion. It is one of the few powerful churches in the New World. one of the churches.

Compared with the size of the Church of the Mist Guide, the reputation of the Mist Guide surpassed a lot. Almost everyone in this world has more or less heard his name when they listened to their mother telling bedside stories after disappearing. The Church of the Guide is regarded as one of the three main god churches precisely because it is indeed very ancient.

According to the legend, this world was originally surrounded by mist, and there were countless monsters in the mist. After human beings came to this world, it was very difficult to survive. The latter gave human beings the ability to distinguish directions in the fog, and endowed human beings with five excellent qualities with five eyes, and finally helped human beings through the most difficult period, and provided very critical help for human reproduction and continuation.

Originally, according to the contribution made by the mist guide to human beings, He should always occupy a position among the three main gods. Among the main gods, it is the only church that advocates sacrifices, and what he asks for sacrifices are not animals, but human beings, and even the most devout believers in his own church.

Later generations analyzed the reason why the Mist Guide's strength was greatly reduced, and he was eliminated from the list of the three main gods. It might not be because too many devout believers were sacrificed, but the church was persistent in the hands of some pan-believers. Facing external pressure, these pan-believers Instead of thinking about maintaining the majesty of the God Lord, resisting or counterattacking external forces that create pressure, but thinking about holding on to a little bit of authority and wealth in his hands, and making compromises with those churches that he thinks are too powerful, over time, the fog It is reasonable for the leader's church to decline.

The materials used to make these three statues in Leo's hands now prove that the Church of the Mist Guides is still practicing the ancient sacrifice custom of their church, but they have also changed a little bit, that is, the body of the believer after sacrifice, also It is the holy body, they no longer send it to the cemetery for offering, but make these holy bodies into strange objects and gods that can exert mysterious power.

"How to use this thing?" Sylvia looked at the statue and asked.

"Look at them, they just stuffed a few emeralds in, and then the statues started to work by themselves." Leo's spiritual network had already captured the whereabouts of those people before they approached, so they used the power of these statues The process was also completely captured by Leo.

Hearing this, Sylvia took out a few emeralds that were about the same size as the five eye sockets of the statue, and stuffed them into the statue one by one. After putting the statue on the table, waiting for the statue to work moment.

Not long after, patterns began to appear on the surface of the statue just like just now, and connected all the emeralds together. Then a circle of green light invisible to the naked eye burst out, and then disappeared immediately. The emeralds were also in the process It was exhausted, leaving only some off-white powder.

"An artifact that anyone can use, what's the use of making it? If the idol falls into the hands of the enemy, won't it also become the enemy's weapon?" Seeing this scene, Sylvia said with disdain.

"It's not as simple as you think. The reason why we are not affected is because we are strong enough that the light cannot affect us, but ordinary people will be greatly affected." Leo retorted Sylvia Then he pointed to the assistants and security guards who were unconscious outside, and added: "And as long as the devout believers of the Mist Guider don't look directly at the light, they can be immune to the effect of this light. It is to identify the piety of believers, that is to say, this idol made of sacrifices is used to select sacrifices."

"It's really ironic." Sylvia couldn't help mocking after hearing this, and then asked: "This thing doesn't seem to be of any use to us?"

Leo didn't answer right away, he was silent for a moment, and then said, "Try stuffing some rubies into it and see what happens."

Sylvia also showed a curious expression when she heard the words, and then took out several rubies of the same size and type and stuffed them into a statue.

Immediately afterwards, the same pattern as before appeared on the surface of the statue, connecting the five rubies, but the light did not appear as expected. Instead, the statue began to vibrate strongly from the inside to the outside, and those patterns seemed to be turning into cracks. Something tried to burst out of the idol.

Leo immediately stood in front of Sylvia, using psychic energy to form a safe-sized psychic seal to enclose the idol that was about to burst, and in order to prevent one layer of psychic seal from being enough, he Two more layers were added.

Just when Leo strengthened the psychic seal, the stability of the statue itself finally collapsed. A violent force erupted from the inside of the statue. It felt like another shell on a battleship had exploded. Leo The innermost spiritual energy seal was shattered under the impact of this explosive force, but the second layer of spiritual energy seal blocked the explosive force, but on the surface because of too much impact force, there appeared similar Water wave pattern.

Just like the green light before, this powerful explosive force appeared quickly and disappeared very quickly. After it disappeared, the god statue and ruby ​​disappeared together, not even leaving a bit of dust behind.

"The power is not bad. Without your psychic power to seal the world, I am afraid that this carriage and the surrounding trains will be affected by this explosive force." Sylvia quickly measured the scope of the explosive force and The size of the power, said with a little surprise.

Leo nodded, dispelled the remaining psychic seals, then picked up the remaining two statues, and said with a smile: "The weapons needed by the Otto Federation are now available."

Sylvia was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and said, "This weapon is too expensive. Even if the Otter Federation got it, I'm afraid it would not be willing to use it."

"It's not something I need to consider." Leo showed a disapproving expression, and then asked Sylvia: "How about those three people?"

"Alive." Sylvia replied simply.

"Can you erase their memory?" Leo asked again.

Sylvia thought for a while and said, "Yes."

"Then erase their memory and throw it outside." Leo decided.

Sylvia nodded, then pointed to the Secret Service security guards, and said, "Do you need to wake them up?"

Leo shook his head and said, "No need, they are tired enough during this time, let them sleep for one night!"

Therefore, Sylvia captured the three church spies from the temporary interrogation room, erased the memory of the interrogation of the three through the method she learned from the memory of the blood of the abyss dragon, and threw them out of the carriage. Then he and Leo went back to the bedroom to rest.

Kadi is one of the secret service security guards affiliated to the Prime Minister's Office. He is a rare mountain citizen among the prime minister's security. Unlike other mountain people who are unwilling to serve the federal government, he has decided to join the federal government a long time ago. The reason is very simple, that is, to be able to eat well and wear beautiful clothes.

When a federal reserve force enters the mountains for combat training, and the training site is not very far from the mountain tribe where Kadi is located, the logistics of the reserve force will come to the tribe from time to time to exchange for some mountain goods to supplement the food of the reserve force, Kadi It was at that time that he joined the federal army, but he joined the logistics department of the reserve.

Afterwards, he followed this reserve force and became a full-time official military branch. In the following several border battles, he relied on the extraordinary physique of the mountain people to kill many enemies on the battlefield and rescued the army. The commanding generals of the troops were then promoted and began to receive formal military training from the Otter Federation.

Originally, when Kadi thought that he would work in the federal army for the rest of his life, he was picked up by the investigation officials at the time when the secret service security guards of the prime minister's office were selecting backup members, and thus joined the secret service security guards of the prime minister's office.

As a mountain dweller, Kadi will naturally be excluded in various ways, but Kadi is very clear that these exclusions can only come secretly. As long as he successfully completes every task and shows his best state, those guys will take it. He can't help it.

Therefore, whether it is in the various trainings of the secret service department or in terms of task completion, Kadi will always be among the top three. He is still in this repulsive environment, relying on his outstanding achievements to continuously improve his status, and now he is the leader of the first mountain task team of the Prime Minister's Secret Service Department.

His deeds have also become a legend in the secret service department, and many secret service security guards who do not discriminate against the mountain people also gathered around him, becoming a small force in the secret service department.

Although it seems to outsiders that Kadi's promotion is smooth sailing, and there is nothing that can stop him from going further, Kadi is very clear that there are still many people who discriminate against the mountain people inside and outside the secret service department. They talk to you with a friendly smile, but when they turn their heads, they will curse you with the most vicious language, so he knows that he can’t make a mistake, and he doesn’t even have a chance to make a mistake, so he will go all out for every task, Be sure to do everything right.

He shouldn't have taken this protection task, because this task was an easy task, and such easy tasks were usually booked in advance, so it was impossible for him to do so.

However, what is unexpected is that an emergency occurred in Beiruk City. Most of the secret service security was transferred to the Ministry of Education to investigate Beiruk City. As a result, this task fell into the hands of him who was idle at the time. .

Although he knew from the beginning that the task was not difficult, which was to protect a foreign couple going to a certain manor in Truber Hill, Joshshire, he still did not relax at all. The daily security work was very strictly arranged, and even when he was sent by the army Inside the guarded station, he will also arrange a vigil in full armor at night. Even on the last day, the train will be able to start again tomorrow for Josburg, and the guard work has not been relaxed at all.

However, on this last day, something unexpected happened. He clearly remembered seeing a burst of green light sweeping across his body before he fell into a coma, and when he woke up from the coma, his mind was still groggy, and he only remembered that ray of light. Green glow.

However, he soon regained consciousness and saw his colleagues lying beside him who were still in a coma. He immediately realized what had happened. Regardless of the discomfort in his head, he immediately got up from the ground and picked up the weapon. , rushed out of the bedroom where the target was protected, and was about to open the door and go in to check the situation.

"Who's outside?" Just as Kadi realized that the door was locked and was about to hit the door, Leo's voice suddenly came from the bedroom and asked.

Kadi was stunned for a moment, and immediately replied: "It's me, Kadi." Then he asked: "Mr. Leo, are you okay?"

"What will happen to me?" the house asked back.

Kadi didn't know how to answer for a while, but he still explained the situation outside cautiously, and reconfirmed whether Leo was safe.

Leo responded: "I'm fine, do what you want to do, don't disturb our rest!"

Cady could hear that there was indeed no problem in the house, so he breathed a sigh of relief, then carefully checked the situation of each room with a weapon, and finally found no trace of intrusion, which made him very puzzled.

However, he cautiously woke up his comatose colleagues and other clerk assistants, and armed the clerk assistants to keep them in the car, while he and other colleagues went outside the car to check the situation until they found three Suspicious object lying outside the compartment.
