The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Yes, I see, you are Sylvia's mentor." After recovering from the shock, Director Raul did not question Sylvia's identity, but followed the other party's words and said.

Sylvia looked at the head of the security bureau, who was lowered in front of him and looked like a subordinate, feeling like he couldn't laugh or cry. Although the other party admitted his identity, he obviously didn't think so in his heart.

However, she has no intention of explaining further. The other party's misunderstanding may not be a bad thing. Before the other party understands, they can at least take advantage of this misunderstanding to temporarily obtain some special permissions. Even if their identities are exposed in the future, it will be fine. , after all, she had already denied that she was that Her Majesty the Queen from the beginning.

"How's the situation here now?" Sylvia pointed to the room and asked in a deep voice, "Where are the original things here?"

"All the materials have been sealed up according to the regulations of the school, and they will not be unsealed until the review committee sends someone down to review the importance of the materials." After being convinced that the person in front of him is the Queen, Director Raul's words and deeds seemed a bit humble. After hearing Sylvia's inquiry, he immediately explained, and added: "However, if it is you, you don't need to abide by those rules and directly use the information. Do you need me to send someone to bring those materials over for you to check?"

"No need." Sylvia shook her head after hearing this. She knew very well that Lucius' whereabouts were not in those materials, and that the really useful materials had already been taken away by them. Secondary reference material, it doesn't matter if you read it or not.

At this time, Leo suddenly asked: "Mr. Director, you have sent people to search the whole city, what's the result?"

Although Director Raul didn't know what Leo's identity was, he guessed from Sylvia's attitude and address that Leo's identity was definitely not easy, and he was probably the queen's husband chosen by the queen to deal with the kingdom government. .

Therefore, he also showed a very respectful attitude towards Leo. After hearing the question, he immediately replied: "Except for the laboratories of a few mentors who were not searched, all other places were searched carefully, and nothing was found." While talking, he didn't wait for Leo to ask, he walked aside and took out a folder from the briefcase, handed it to Leo and said, "This is the information of those mentors."

Leo was also welcome, took the folder and quickly looked through it. The information in it is mainly divided into two parts, one is the inspection report, and the other is a detailed record of all the lives of those mentors and their research project data.

The instructors who refused to allow the inspectors to enter the laboratory were different from Leo and the others. They were native Teresa people, and they were born in some small towns in the Kingdom of Teresa. They were recommended by the local college with excellent grades. After studying in the academic city, he has been studying and researching in the academic city since then, and has never had any contact with the outside world. He belongs to the least suspicious type of people.

And the most important thing is that their laboratory is at the clover level. According to the research project level regulations of the school city, the clover level is already an important research project. He did not apply to set up a research office in the third district, but stayed in the second district.

Also because of this reason, the main personnel of these research rooms, from tutors to students, will have a more advanced city guard system in the city responsible for special security, which means that there are people monitoring the situation of these research rooms at all times. In this case, it is almost impossible to kidnap another mentor and hide him.

So even though the instructors prevented the inspectors from entering the research room when they searched the whole city, the person in charge of the search did not continue to forcibly enter the search. Instead, they thought that the possibility of them being kidnappers was very low, and These unchecked laboratories were classified as the lowest level of suspicion.

After reading the documents, Leo did not immediately remove these mentors from the list of suspects like the other city guards who were in charge of the search, but instead removed these mentors and the laboratory they belonged to. It was classified as one of the objects most in need of suspicion.

The reason why he was so suspicious was not that Leo found any clues, but that he carefully read the inspection report. From the detailed inspection process recorded in the report, it is not difficult to see that the city guard who was in charge of the inspection did a very good job. Basically, no mistakes or omissions can be found, even if Leo leads someone to search, it may not be so clean.

If it was in other places, Leo might still think that there might be extraordinary power, and hide the kidnapped mentor Lucius. Can find Lucius.

But there are energy disruptors in the second urban area. Judging from Leo's situation of the entire city, unless he reaches the level of a demigod like him, otherwise there is no forbidden area or seal created by any extraordinary power here. Lucius, who was kidnapped, could only hide in the usual way.

In the case that other places have been searched and there are no mistakes or omissions, even if the few places that have not been searched are not worthy of suspicion due to various reasons, they should also be regarded as objects that must be suspected.

In addition, among the research subjects recorded on the data, one of the tutors of the academy involved the history of the founding of the Kingdom of Teresa and a legendary treasure.

Leo handed the document in his hand to Sylvia, and at the same time asked Director Raul: "Do you have any information on this Felipe Dinan? More detailed information, especially the information on his research projects. "

Director Raul replied: "Is Feli Dinan a scholar? It's hard to find his information. Anyone in the academy can tell you that this man is a celebrity in the academy city, but his reputation is not very good. He always thinks The treasure mentioned in the folklore story of the founding of the kingdom is real, and he has been engaged in research in this area for a long time."

Leo also listened to the accompanying communication team and scholars on the road telling the story of the founding of the Kingdom of Teresa in folklore. Naturally, treasures are also indispensable in this story. In this story, a treasure is specifically mentioned, and this treasure is also the foundation for the establishment of the Kingdom of Teresa in the story.

"Don't you believe that the treasure really exists?" Leo asked back.

"I don't think ordinary people can build a kingdom like Teresa's with only one treasure, not to mention that the treasure in the story only took away a small part, and the rest remained in the treasure place." Law Director Er shook his head and said: "If this is the calculation, the wealth contained in that treasure will be an unimaginable number, but the question is who left such a huge treasure? I think in the past it should be No country can possess such a huge amount of wealth, not even the Middle Kingdom, which is known as the birthplace of mankind, and it is even more impossible for any country to be so stupid to bury such a huge treasure underground instead of using it for itself. "

After listening to the analysis of the chubby Director Raul in front of them, Leo and Sylvia also re-established their views on this person. Before, they only thought that Director Raul's ability was average, otherwise it would be impossible to even such a simple The kidnapping case will also recruit people to help at the beginning, but now it seems that Director Raul also has a very high level of wisdom and reason, and can analyze so much content from those legends. The only flaw is that His vision is too limited, and he thinks that treasures are equal to wealth, and he doesn't know that there is another kind of treasure in the world whose value far exceeds the limit of wealth.

Leo gave his opinion directly, saying: "Go and search this Philip Dinan's laboratory first! I believe there should be something to gain."

"This? This may be difficult." Director Raul hesitated for a moment, and said: "The Research Office of Phili Scholars needs permission from the project committee to enter the search. I have already sent someone to apply, and I will have to wait until tomorrow at the earliest. ..."

"Rules are dead, but people are alive. Sometimes you shouldn't pay too much attention to the rules, and the result is more important." Leo looked at Director Raul and bewitched: "Although you searched the whole city for the reasons given It has nothing to do with the kidnapping case, but anyone with a little brains will feel that something is wrong, that is to say, the kidnappers are now alert and know that there is not much time left for them. They may use more drastic measures to deal with the kidnappers. Kidnapping the Lucius scholar, forcing him to ask what he wants to know, it is more likely to kill the Lucius scholar afterwards, and use methods that you can't find to destroy the body. Do you think that one day is enough to do these things? Isn't that enough?"

After Director Raul heard this, his face became a little ugly. His thinking has followed Leo's statement to think of the final result. If a mentor, even a titled mentor, was kidnapped and murdered under his nose, In the end, even if he solves the case and catches the assailant, he probably won't be able to stay in his current position any longer, and he may bid farewell to the stable and comfortable life in the past.

Thinking of this, Director Raul couldn't help but looked at Sylvia, as if he wanted to get some useful advice from her.

Sylvia asked rhetorically, "Which one is more serious, violating the rules of the Second Academy City or the tragic death of the instructor of the Second Academy City in the city?"

When Director Raul heard this, all the hesitant expressions on his face disappeared, and then he gave an order to a city guard captain of the Security Bureau not far away, asking him to obey the orders of Leo and Sylvia, and then walked quickly Walking out of Lucius' laboratory, it seems that he should organize a search of that Felipe Dinan's laboratory.

Leo and Sylvia did not continue to stay in Lucius' laboratory. They just took advantage of the fact that the disguise had not been broken and the special authority was still there, so they asked the captain of the city guard to take them to the second city for a few days. A restricted area that ordinary scholars cannot enter, such as a prohibited item warehouse.

In the eyes of many forces involved in extraordinary power, the city of academics is almost equivalent to the existence of heresy or mortal enemies. Among them are the Church of True God and believers of evil gods. If it hadn't been protected by the Kingdom of Teresa, perhaps it would have been destroyed by all parties. The extraordinary forces were wiped out.

Although these extraordinary forces cannot attack the academic city with great fanfare, it is still very simple to send some dead soldiers and fanatics to sneak into the academic city to destroy it, but the core areas of the third, fourth, and fifth academic cities are not open to the public , all those who try to enter the urban area need to go through a re-identification review. Those who sneak in have no countermeasures for this, and can only target the second urban area. As for the first urban area, they don’t think it is particularly important. No matter how severe the damage is, it will not affect the survival of the academic city.

In this way, the Second District became the district with the most attacks among the five districts of the Academy City, and the vast majority of these attacks were caused by fanatics of the Church of True God and heretics of the Church of Evil God. According to the captain of the city guard, Leo knew something interesting. These two forces that should not have come together actually cooperated with each other when facing the common enemy of the school city.

Because of a lot of experience in targeting fanatics and cultists, the Security Bureau of the Second City is often able to intercept the plans of these fanatics and cultists before the destruction occurs, and also confiscated a large amount of spoils at the same time. Many of the items contain various dangers. For this reason, the Academy City has specially built a building to store these dangerous items in the Second District. This building is also a forbidden area for scholars in the Second District, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter Only with the consent of a few school management organizations such as the project committee, some scholars who specialize in the research of religious objects or supernatural objects are allowed to enter the building to study these dangerous objects involving supernatural power.

According to common sense, it is impossible for a City Guard Captain of the Security Bureau to lead people into the restricted area where dangerous items are stored, but this City Guard Chief is directly under the Director of the Security Bureau, and has been personally ordered by Director Raul, so entering the restricted area is naturally not What is difficult.

After Leo and Sylvia checked their belongings and registered their identities, they were put into the building by the guards, but they still arranged a team of guards wearing special armor and two manager.

The first thing that attracted the attention of Leo and Sylvia in the whole building was not the various equipment full of technological flavor inside the building, but the two managers arranged for them by the building management department, because they found that the two Managers are very special, they are like two living energy disruptors.

When these two managers in black robes and hoods approached him, both Leo and Sylvia felt energy interference several times stronger than outside, and this energy interference even made Hill Via had the illusion that the abyssal power in her body was shrinking rapidly.
