The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Leo took a look at the information and found that the above content is very simple, it is a briefing, the federal government will deploy the garrison troops stationed in nine towns in the Takot area to the Takot front line, and start to call up reserve troops from the civilian population.

For ordinary people, this is just a very ordinary military deployment briefing. Compared with those passionate battlefield reports, it is not readable or worthy of attention.

But for people like Sylvia and Leo who are particularly sensitive to intelligence, this briefing reveals a lot of information.

The Takot area is not an ordinary border area. It has the title of Thousand Fort Plains. The religious war that led to the founding of the Ott Federation first broke out here, and in the early years of the war, it was full of war At the point of stalemate, the church army participating in the war built a large number of war castles here, which is also the origin of the name of the Qianbao Plain.

Later, after the Otter Federation took control of this area, these war castles were preserved, some were converted into towns, and some were still used as military fortresses. The governor did not hesitate to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to connect all the military castles with city walls and build a solid Great Wall.

Because there are three legions in the Takot region, more than a dozen garrison regiments and a large number of reserves stationed here all the year round, plus the existence of the Great Wall of the Thousand Castles in Takot, people in the Otter Federation joked that the Takot region has the ability to block the gods. Advance steel defense.

The reason why the Otter Federation attaches so much importance to the Takot area, stationed a large number of troops in the Takot area, and built a large number of fortifications is mainly to resist the church country Nas opposite the Takot area.

The Nas State is also called the Papal State of Nas. It itself is not particularly powerful. Among the church states surrounding the Otter Federation, its land area can only rank third from the bottom, and its population is the bottom one. The entire country has only one The Knights used for the guard of honor, in terms of the combat power of this country alone, it is the lowest existence among the surrounding countries of the Outer Federation, and it is not even comparable to the combat power of a border town in the Outer Federation.

But the Otter Federation is most worried about such a small country, and even deploys a large number of troops and builds a large number of fortifications on the border that intersects with it. This is mainly because of the behemoth behind the Nas Country, the largest power in the New World, the TEDA Empire.

The TEDA Empire is the continuation of the Old Continent of the Holy Lord of TEDA. The founder of the TEDA Empire was one of the electors of the Holy Lord of TEDA. Because of an extremely failed political conspiracy, he was deprived of the title His identity was taken back from his territory and he was exiled to the New World.

However, after coming to the New World, the Elector still relied on his old ministry and the support of the Priest Church to establish the TEDA Empire, and after several generations of hard work, he became the number one power in the New World.

Just like the Holy Lord of TEDA, the state religion of the TEDA Empire is also a church with many believers in the old and new continents. According to the Church of the Source, the Lord of the Source is the origin of this world. He created this world. All the beings in this world also created all the gods in this world, but this saying is only popular within the Church of the Lord of the Source, and people in other churches just regard this saying as an absurd joke or a boring provocation.

However, even so, the Master Church of the Source still has many believers, and its spreading power is very wide. Among the churches that entered the New World in the early days of the Great Migration, the Church of the Master of the Source was the main force. Now they believe in the Master Church of the Source and define it as the state religion. There are sixty-seven countries, and these sixty-seven countries have established the Covenant Alliance of the Lord of Origin with the TEDA Empire as the core. This is also the main reason why the TEDA Empire can become the most powerful country in the New World.

The internal priesthood of the Source Church is the implementation of the pope system. The pope has great power. Not only can he influence the appointment of the king and head of state of the subordinate church, but he also owns many territories, and these territories are unified as the church. Zongguo.

Nas State is one of the many Papal States, but it is also a very special Papal State, because the current Pope of the Lord of Source Church was born in Nas State, and he is also the first Lord of Source born in the New World Church Pope, so the particularity of the Nas Kingdom makes it even if it is not bordered by the TEDA Empire, but it still attracts the attention of the TEDA Empire. Once something happens, the TEDA Empire will inevitably send troops for it, even if the TEDA Empire and this There are three or four countries separated by the Pope.

Whether it is in the strategic deduction of the Ott Federation military staff, or in the chats between Leo and Sylvia about the situation of the Utt Federation, they all believe that once the surrounding religious coalition forces are formed, the TEDA Empire will send troops from the Nas country. The probability would be as high as 90% or more. As long as there was no such thing as the death of the emperor of the empire or civil strife in the empire, it could be said that troops would definitely be sent. The only problem was the time to send troops.

Judging from the emergency deployment of a large number of troops by the Otter Federation to the defense line of the Takot Great Wall and the start of the recruitment of reserve forces, the TEDA Empire should be unable to sit still now. They did not wait for the tentative attacks of other church countries. After finding out the strength of the Oeter Federation before sending out troops, they immediately joined the first round of attacks, which enabled the Otter Federation to strengthen its troops and carry out defenses. Judging from the number of strengthened troops, the frontline battle situation is obviously heading towards Oeter Federation. Development in an unfavorable direction for the Federation.

If you just compare the comprehensive combat power of the secular armed forces, the army of the Otto Federation can definitely be regarded as the number one in the New Continent. Even among the many countries in the Old Continent, there are not many that can match it, but the problem is that the TEDA Empire The main combat power that the church state relies on is not just the secular army, it mainly relies on some troops with special powers, such as the death-defying army composed of fanatics, the punishment army inside the church, the fearless knights of the empire, etc. He is well-known in the New World and has made a lot of military exploits.

But this is not the core combat power of the TEDA Empire. As one of the oldest churches in the world, the Church of the Origin has collected a large number of ancient secret arts that have been lost to the people. However, it is still preserved and improved. For example, the Undead Cavalry Regiment, which is really owned by the TEDA Empire but has never acknowledged its existence, is such an army created by using ancient secret techniques combined with the magic of the Lord of the Source Church.

The number of the entire Undead Cavalry Regiment is not very large, only less than a thousand, but the combat power of this cavalry regiment is extremely astonishing. It has once achieved an amazing record of killing 100,000 enemies and defeating a million. This is mainly because this cavalry regiment The members of the cavalry regiment have all been transformed by secret and divine techniques. Not only are they extremely powerful, they can easily carry a huge boulder weighing several tons, and even have a nearly immortal body.

According to the records of the survivors who fought against this cavalry regiment in history, the wounds on the bodies of members of this cavalry regiment will heal quickly after being injured. Healing quickly, and growing an arm again, this is not the scariest thing, the scariest thing is that their heads are chopped off, or even smashed, and those people can still turn into headless horsemen and continue fighting until the end of the battle Only when it is over will it stop and die.

For ordinary folks, this kind of record is just a means for the defeated survivors to protect themselves. They exaggerate the magical power of the undead cavalry as much as possible, so as to find excuses for the defeat and reduce their responsibilities. In fact, the undead cavalry It's just stronger than the average army.

But for the top leaders of various countries, this kind of record is the most authentic first-hand record, and only this kind of record can truly show the horror of the Undead Cavalry Regiment of the Church of the Source to the world.

When the Otter Federation was preparing for war, they should have considered that the TEDA Empire would send undead cavalry regiments to join the battle, because the TEDA Empire and the Papal State of Nass do not border each other, and there are several countries in the middle. The relationship is very general. If the TEDA Empire wants to send a large army to the Patriarchate of Nas, it must first pass through the territories of these countries. necessary war.

Therefore, the TEDA Empire will definitely dispatch fewer and more powerful undead cavalry regiments to pass through these countries secretly to support the Papal State of Nas.

As long as the Undead Cavalry Corps participates in the battle, there may be problems with the Takot defense line of the Otter Federation, so it is reasonable for the Federation to dispatch these troops now.

But this kind of deployment of troops cannot solve the threat of the undead cavalry regiment. Only other people with the same extraordinary power or weapons with the same extraordinary power can deal with the undead cavalry regiment.

The manufacturing method of the finished grenade that Leo sent over before also involved some mysticism and supernatural power, but these mysticism and supernatural power are the basic mysticism and supernatural power of this world, and the Otto Federation should not There is a lack of talents in this area, so making grenades will not be too difficult.

The reason why he did this is to let the Otter Federation see his ability to weaponize extraordinary power. In this way, when the Otter Federation needs to speed up the research on the practical application of the secret weapon in their hands, it will definitely think of it. He, even if Longanus doesn't help him match up at that time, he still has a way to get in touch with the core weapon mystery in the hands of the Otter Federation.

Now the letter sent by Longanus is undoubtedly a signal. It seems that there has been a problem with the war situation in the Takot area. The Otto Federation needs weapons that can be used to deal with extraordinary forces. The weapon design master that the top management cared about naturally became one of the people they needed to invite, even if Leo's identity was still a foreigner.

"Looks like this, we have to thank these church countries." Leo put the information on the table and said with a smile.

Sylvia shook her head and said, "Don't be too happy too soon. It's far from the time of crisis. The federal government's call for us is more of a preparation, and it may also be because you made The weapons have already made them worry, worrying that you will leak the method of making weapons, or make weapons for other countries, so you will take us over. I estimate that for a long time, the two of us should be I am under house arrest." She said, she thought for a while, and said, "I think we should go to Truber Hill before going to the capital. It would be best if we can solve the problem of Truber Hill once and for all. , even if it doesn’t work, it’s good to test the effect of your camouflage talisman in advance.”

Leo disagreed with Sylvia's proposal and said, "It's too risky to rush into Mount Trube before there are enough powerful attack methods."

Seeing that Leo had already made a decision, Sylvia did not insist, and then she ordered the housekeeper to prepare things for the couple to travel.

Leo went to find Bain Ruff, and he asked Bain Ruff to return to the mountain temporarily, and when he returned to Truber Mountain from the capital, he would notify him and let him come and lead the way.

As for the way to notify him, there are two ways, one is to leave his own psychic imprint on Bain Luffy, and then contact him through the imprint, even if Bain Luffy does not respond, he can still use the imprint Locate, find the resident of the lumberjack family in the mountain by yourself.

In addition, in order to prevent the spiritual imprint from being disturbed by the power of this world, Leo added a layer of insurance, which is to use the positioning chip of the general recorder to locate the position of Bain Ruff.

Bain Ruff was very surprised by Leo's arrangement. He was thinking about how long he would stay in the basement of this villa, but he didn't expect that he could leave as soon as he turned his head.

However, he also knew that his matter was not over yet, so he was not surprised that Leo used some means to stay on him.

As for Sandro, he is no longer of use to Leo, but Sandro's surname is still an intangible resource. After arriving at the federal capital, he may be able to use Sandro as a springboard to establish some alliances with that old federal political family. An effective and useful connection, so Leo decided to bring Sandro to the federal capital as well.

Sandro was also a little surprised that he had the opportunity to return to the capital. In his opinion, his current situation may not be able to return to the capital for several years, or even more than ten years. After the news of the failure passed, he was sent to the border area closer to the front line to collect intelligence.

But now that he has the opportunity to return to the capital, then he may be able to use some of the connections he left in the capital during the time he returned to the capital to help him get rid of the shadow of mission failure in advance.

Because of this, Sandro was more active than Leo and Sylvia in returning to the capital. Not only did he pack up the salute early, he even wrote a few letters to his friends in the capital, Let them help him contact some relationships in advance, and when he returns to the capital, he can immediately start to solve his crimes.
