The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

The wasteland shaman ran around in shock and didn't know if he had the habit of being a good teacher, or because of other unknown reasons. When he saw that Leo was interested in these things about the gods, he didn't hide it, and he didn't even wait for Leo to ask. , he told all the mysteries of the gods he knew.

"You should also know that our shamans did not believe in gods at first, but in the spirits of nature. These spirits of nature were conceived by the most original power of heaven and earth when the world appeared. They are the protectors of nature and the creators of life. As if lost in memory, he slowly narrated: "However, with the emergence of religion, the spirits of nature were gradually pushed to the altar by the church and became gods, and they are Velen. The earliest gods in the world are also known as ancient gods, and now they are enshrined as righteous gods by the Orthodox Church."

Leo reasoned naturally: "If the Ancient God is the Righteous God, then the Outer God should be the Evil God."

"Yes, that's what the Orthodox Holy See calls it." The wasteland shaman nodded and continued: "There is no public opinion on when the outer gods appeared, but in the eyes of us shamans who believe in the spirit of nature, the outer gods The appearance of the gods may be earlier than the creation of the world of Velen, or the appearance of the outer gods directly led to the creation of the world of Velen."

The wasteland shaman paused at this point, as if to give Leo time to accept this concept. Because all the people who heard him say these words were very surprised, thinking that he must be crazy, and some friends even told him to shut up, unwilling to listen anymore, he was worried that Leo would have such a Response, so pause for a moment.

However, Leo's performance far exceeded his expectations. He didn't show any abnormal emotions such as surprise and panic when his concept was destroyed. On the contrary, he seemed very calm, and he didn't have any negative performance on this shocking concept.

This kind of performance made the wasteland shaman feel very surprised, even to the point of being unbelievable, because Leo's reaction was so abnormal, even if he talked about it with the old man Rembrandt who he thought was the wisest and most enlightened. Regarding the matter, the other party also expressed that he could not accept such an idea, and he would definitely not be as calm as Leo showed, so that he did not have any disgust at all.

It's no wonder that Leo is like this, not to mention that he saw so many worlds in bubbles in the subspace of the turbid and light master, even in the Earth Federation, there is no lack of technological power to transform the planet and create life. These technological powers in the Vinylon world should be similar to the foreign gods that caused the appearance of the Vinylon world, so this kind of deviant idea in the eyes of the local people in the Vinylon world is a very normal concept in his eyes.

"Don't you think this statement is absurd?" Stunned Hoof asked with doubts.

"What do you say?" Leo was stunned for a moment, realizing that there seemed to be something wrong with his performance, but he didn't show any abnormal expressions, instead he looked very calm, and asked: "Is it the outer gods that caused the emergence of the Velen world? "

"Yes." Startled hoof stomped.

Leo asked again: "Why should I feel absurd about this hypothesis?"

"Because..." Frightened Hoof couldn't find the right words to explain it for a while, so he could only bite the bullet and said, "This kind of statement itself is absurd?"

"No, as long as you bring yourself into it, then this kind of statement will not feel absurd at all." Leo explained: "You should have seen beekeeping, right? The beekeeper took a peak queen and some bees Put it in an empty beehive, and it will not take long for the empty beehive to grow into a complete hive. We compare an empty hive to the unformed Velen world, and then thousands of sealed peaks and initial beehives are born in the hive. The bee is the spirit of nature, and the formed hive is our world, so the beekeeper..."

"It's the Outer God." Scarlet Hoof quickly figured out Leo's explanation, and took his words.

Moreover, he not only accepted Leo's explanation, but also because this explanation answered a question that had troubled him for many years, and thus brought him into a state of contemplation.

Leo didn't bother him when he saw Frightened Hoof Stamping lost in thought, and sat quietly by the side, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

After a long while, Luantu suddenly said, "I know, I know!"

Hearing this, Leo opened his glasses and looked at Frightened Hoof, his expression couldn't help being stunned, because just a moment ago Frightened Hoof was like a child, but now his hair is gray and his face is covered with wrinkles. Straight from childhood to old age, even the cane in his hand withered, like a withered tree.

However, the difference from his old appearance is that his glasses have become particularly bright, and the spiritual energy on his body has gradually recovered, and even has a tendency to become stronger. He could clearly feel the rapidly increasing spiritual energy on the opponent, and some tiny buds and leaves even grew on the withered cane.

"How did you become like this? Is there something wrong with your body?" Seeing the change in the frightened hooves, Leo asked slightly worried.

Stunned and shook his head, the joy on his face was very obvious, and he said: "It's okay, I'm fine!" Maybe he felt that this was not enough to express his state and mood, so he said with a more serious tone: "It should be very good."

Leo pointed at the old and frightened appearance with his fingers, and said, "But you now..."

"Isn't this in line with the way of nature?" Shocked and said with a smile: "When you are old, you will look like an old man. This is nature." Then, he suddenly turned to Leo very cautiously and said, "I can One step further in nature's way, and it's all thanks to you."

Leo didn't take the credit, shook his head and said, "This is your own understanding, and it has nothing to do with me."

"No, it has something to do with you." Frightened Hoof said solemnly: "The reason why I went to No. 9 Golden Oak Street is mainly because I feel that death is coming soon, so I seek all the natural spirits of Velen The way to get rid of the shadow of death, I finally got the revelation is at No. 9 Golden Oak Street. I originally thought that the revelation of the spirit of nature required me to unravel the hidden mysteries of No. 9 Golden Oak Street, but now it seems that you, Leo Dodd is the reason why I came here. Your explanation of the foreign gods and ancient gods just now helped me find the way of nature that I had lost for a long time, and let me return to the way of nature. I think this is what the spirit of nature gave me. The true purpose of my revelation."

Leo asked again: "Since you have found the way of nature, will you not die?"

"No, I'm still going to die." Frightened Hooves smiled freely and said, "Death itself is a part of nature. Everything must perish one day. I used to be afraid of death and would do everything possible to avoid it. And if death were in front of me at this moment, I would embrace death."

Although Leo admired his open-minded attitude towards death, he did not agree with this concept. Among all the concepts he received in the past, the most important thing is to try his best to survive.

Just when Leo was thinking about how to change the topic back, he started to continue the previous topic, and said in some astonishing words: "I already know how this nightmare world was formed."

Leo was stunned, and asked in a deep voice, "Is it because of the feeling just now?"

"Not all." Scared Hoof explained: "Before I went to No. 9 Golden Oak Street, I had already conducted some investigations on the things here, found some clues and suspects, and now I just put those suspicions Objects are eliminated one by one, and the remaining objects of doubt are the only answer." After speaking, he was silent for a while, and said: "Have you heard of the thirteen volumes of madman's knowledge of ancient gods?"

Leo was stunned, nodded, and said truthfully: "I know this, I recently got a book of night curtain written based on the night god's sigh."

This time it was the wasteland shaman's turn to be stunned, and then he said with a surprised face: "What a coincidence, what I want to talk about now is the night god in the book Night God Sighs."

"Is this really a coincidence?" Leo couldn't help feeling suspicious, feeling a little weird.

After all, after he got the Book of Night, he immediately came to the Nightmare Realm, which could cause the Book of Night to respond, which gave him the talent of Dream Body. Now that I met the wasteland shaman again, I can get some mysterious knowledge of the night god related to the origin of the book of night from him, and the wasteland shaman also decided to come to No. 9 Golden Oak Street after receiving some kind of revelation.

Everything made him feel like an invisible pusher was pushing him in a certain direction.

However, compared to the suspicious Leo, Stampede obviously didn't have any other thoughts, he just thought it was a coincidence.

Surprised, he also continued: "Night God is one of the oldest spirits of nature, mastering all things of life and death under the night, dreams are also one of them. It's just that Night God disappeared suddenly later, there is an ancient The shaman asked the spirit of nature, and the revelations he got were different, some said that the night god had become a higher god, and some revelations said that the night god had been killed by an outer god called the stalker."

Hearing the words of panic, Leo couldn't help but think of the chain reaction that indirectly destroyed a galaxy when the Earth Federation killed an omega-level cosmic creature. He frowned and asked, "Is it true that a god died?" Won't there be any big movements during the time?"

Shocking his head, he said, "It was because there were no abnormal reactions, so the shaman at that time had some doubts about whether the night god was dead, but later the high priests of the Orthodox Night God Church at that time discovered several The dream world of the Mark of the Night God is undergoing transformation."

"The Mark of the Night God?" Leo thought of the mark he saw on the Nightmare's eyeballs before Stampede in his mind, so he asked, "Is that the mark we saw on the Nightmare's eyeballs before?"

"No." After Stampede denied Leo's guess, he tried to explain the mark of the night god, but he opened his mouth for a long time, wanting to describe it, but he couldn't say anything, and finally he could only vaguely describe it. Said: "This mark cannot be said, only you can understand its meaning when you see it."

Leo nodded as if he could understand Stampede's words, and didn't continue to ask, but asked again: "Is the Nightmare Realm we are in now also transformed from Night God's dream world?"

Stunning Hoofs replied very positively, saying: "Yes! I don't know how far the wizards in the tower have studied the nightmare world, but I can be sure that the nightmare world they have come into contact with is disordered and chaotic. The dream world of the previous world, and now this nightmare world is obviously very different from the nightmare world discovered by the tower wizard. Because this world has produced its own natural way, and only the dream world with the most fundamental power of the ancient gods can It can turn an illusory dream world into such a real world, so I am sure that the nightmare world we are in now, which is not the nightmare world, should be one of the few dream worlds discovered by the Great God Church."

Although Staggering Hooves has tried to explain to Leo as much as possible, but Leo always feels that Stamping Hoofs seems to be hiding something, and there is something he wants to say, so his words seem a bit confused, and it sounds like weird.

Afterwards, Leo asked with some doubts: "How do you know that this dream world has produced its own way of nature?"

"Because I have integrated into the natural way of this world." Stunned Hoof pointed at himself, and then completely radiated the psionic energy called the force of nature on his body, and the radiated psionic energy gradually spread around his body. Compressed and finally overlaid on the body skin, an invisible layer of skin is formed.

Feeling the psychic control and psychic strength of Staggering Hooves, Leo can also be sure that his strength has not only recovered, but also seems to have increased.

It's just that Leo felt that the psionic aura emanating from Frightened Hoof Stamped's body was different from the psionic energy he felt at first. It seemed that it was not so light and clean, and it became a little cloudy, which also made him feel a sense of inexplicable danger. It made him instinctively want to take out his weapon on guard.

Although Leo felt that the psychic state of the wasteland shaman was a little abnormal, he did not make any overreactions, nor did he remind the scrambling hooves. In my heart, I handed it over to the sub-brain system to pay attention, and I asked in a deep voice: "Since we already know that this is Night God's dream, what should we do next?"

The wasteland shaman showed a dignified look, and said: "The most important thing now is to find a way to get out of here." Then, he asked Leo: "The silver moon tower's magical object is still on you. ?"

Hearing this, Leo took out the beacon ball and handed it to the wasteland shaman.

After taking the ball in a frightened hoof, he closed his eyes slightly, and the surge of spiritual energy in his body formed the shape of a tree under the observation of Leo's spiritual vision, as if he was performing some kind of shamanic magic.

After a while, the spiritual energy on the wasteland shaman gradually calmed down, and he returned the things to Leo. The solemn look on his face did not ease in the slightest, but became more serious.

Leo took the ball and was still able to sense the location of the beacon through the ball, so he couldn't help asking: "Is there a problem?"
