The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Although the Duke of White Boots denied that he was the pet of the first chief wizard of the Wizarding Association, some of his words and actions revealed a lot of information.

For example, its owner is very familiar with the first chief wizard, and he disdains him very much. Not to mention what happened in front of him, he must have complained behind his back. That's why the Duke of White Boots was influenced by him, and he called the first chief wizard by a bad old man. , and extremely disgusted with its performance.

In addition, the Duke of White Boots should have lived in Silvermoon City before, and he did not miss the wizard tower of the first chief wizard, so he was very familiar with the environment there, easily avoided the magic puppet guards there, and sneaked into the To the treasure house.

The last point is that the owner of the Duke of White Boots must have coveted the treasure house of the first chief wizard for a long time, and even spent a lot of time and energy researching the defense of the wizard tower of the first chief wizard, the location of the treasure house traps and so on. That's why the Duke of White Boots was able to steal three fragments that were very important to the first chief wizard without alerting any alarms and traps. Even Leo felt that the Duke of White Boots was a thief, and it was also ordered by its owner.

However, in order not to scare the Duke of White Boots, Leo did not intend to say these analyzes and conjectures, but turned the topic back to the fragments in his hand, saying: "If my guess is correct, these should be a complete A fragment of a wizard's wonder?"

"How do you know? Have you seen that thing?" The Duke of White Boots looked surprised, looked Leo up and down, and asked in doubt: "But you are not a wizard from the Wizards Association? If you are not a wizard, how could you go to the first chief?" What about the wizard tower?"

Leo, who was particularly sensitive, got another message from this sentence and asked, "How do you know that I am not a wizard from the Wizarding Association?"

"Because you don't have that smell on you." The Duke of White Boots said solemnly: "The wizards in the Wizarding Association all have a smell on them, and that smell is terrible. I don't like that smell."

"Smell?" Leo was puzzled for a moment, then tried to mobilize the psionic energy in his body to disperse it outside his body, and asked, "Is it this smell?"

"No, it's a good smell, not a bad smell." The Duke of White Boots can obviously sense a certain level of strong psionic energy through his nose. When Leo lets the psionic energy escape from his body, it will Immediately noticed it, and quickly climbed onto Leo's knee, sniffed Leo's body vigorously, and said with an intoxicated face: "It smells really good! It smells as good as the smell of the three chiefs of the Wizarding Association. If it weren't for your faint smell, I might have taken you as one of them."

After listening to the words of the Duke of White Boots, Leo obtained some amazing secret information.

From the words, Leo analyzed that the three chief wizards of the Silvermoon City Wizard Association should follow the pure way of ancient wizards. Although Leo himself is not a wizard, his psionic power and the ancient wizard of the tower should be somewhat different. Similar, that's why the Duke of White Boots felt that the two had the same psionic smell. As for the depth of the taste, it may be related to the spiritual level, that is to say, Leo's spiritual level should not be as good as the three chief wizards here.

Another point is that only the three chief wizards of the Wizarding Association follow the way of ancient wizards. The other wizards should have mutated into another way of wizards like the wizards in the current world of Velen, and this way of wizards makes their spirits If it can get mixed up, the Duke of White Boots will smell bad.

In Leo's view, it must be intentional for the three chief wizards to hide the true way of wizards and make other wizard towers take different paths, because this will help them control other wizard towers. As for the struggle for power among other wizard towers, the three chief wizards are faintly controlling them, which can also help them consume the resources of other wizard towers and the energy of the chief wizard, so that their positions will always be stable.

"Do you only want these three things?" The Duke of White Boots seemed unwilling to talk too much about the Wizarding Association. After answering the questions for Leo, he looked at the three fragments in Leo's hand and asked: " How about I convert everything else into two fog monster wrecks?"

"No, I don't need anything else." Leo shook his head, and then said to the Duke of White Boots with a disappointed expression, "But I would like to ask you to check something for me. Make it a reward!"

I just thought I might have to say goodbye to the two lovely fog monster wrecks, but now I suddenly have a new hope, so that the Duke of White Boots couldn't help but dance a few times on Leo's knee before realizing that he was rude He quickly calmed down, and said apologetically to Leo: "I'm sorry, I was too excited just now, I hope you don't think I'm a rude elf mouse." Then, it couldn't wait to ask: " What do you want me to check for you?"

Leo asked in a deep voice: "Do you know the murders and disappearances that happened in District 23 during this period?"

The Duke of White Boots showed doubts, tilted his head and looked at Leo and said, "Why do you ask this? Don't you know the best?"

"I should know best?" Leo asked with a puzzled face, "Why should I know best?"

"Did you do those things?" The Duke of White Boots asked in surprise.

Leo was completely confused by the Duke of White Boots. He originally wanted to use the matter of finding the murderer to see how far the group of elves led by the Duke of White Boots could do so that he could decide whether to let the Duke of White Boots Help find the wreckage of that omega-level creature.

But he never expected that such a scene would appear, and he himself became a murderer, so he asked, "Duke White Boots, why are you so sure that I am the one who committed those murders?"

"Smell." The Duke of White Boots quickly replied, and at the same time realized that he might have made a mistake, he explained: "The smell on your body is very unique, the same as that person's smell, and I have never smelled it before. This smell, so I remember it very clearly. When I saw you yesterday, I almost regarded you as that person, so I was a little wary of you and didn't dare to appear in front of you rashly. "

Leo questioned: "Isn't the smell on my body the same as the smell of the three chief wizards?"

The Duke of White Boots immediately explained: "Some are the same and some are different. Everyone has many smells. Some smells are the same and some smells are different. The unique smell on you is the same as the smell on that person. , but now I smell it carefully, the smell on your body is stronger, the difference in concentration is like... just like the difference in intensity between the smell on the first chief wizard and the smell on you."

Now Leo understood the meaning of the Duke of White Boots. The Duke of White Boots had seen the murderer before, but he didn't see the murderer's appearance clearly. He just remembered that the murderer had a smell that he had never smelled before, and it happened that Leo It also had the same smell on its body, but this smell was much stronger than that of the murderer, so it misunderstood it.

"I have a unique smell similar to that person?" An idea immediately came to Leo's mind. Like him, that person is not from the dream world, because only in this way can they appear in this world Unique smell.

"Can I eat those desserts?" The Duke of White Boots could see that Leo needed time to think, so he pointed to the desserts on the table and asked.

"Eat it! This is for you." Leo took the dessert and placed it in front of the Duke of White Boots.

After taking a few mouthfuls, the Duke of White Boots said critically, "The cream taste is too light, it's just average."

Hearing the words of the Duke of White Boots, Leo seemed to be inspired by something, his eyes lit up, he pondered for a while, and denied the guess just now. Because if that person also came from the world of Velen or other real worlds, then there must be no difference in the intensity of the smell between the two, and the difference is so big.

"If it's not because they all come from the real world, what else can produce a unique smell?" Leo frowned, muttering in his heart, and suddenly he thought of a possibility, that is the dream brought to him by the Book of Night The psionic aura brought by the body and the dream body is also unique.

And the more important point is that he thought of the unreasonable judgment that he suddenly had inexplicably when he saw the corpse in the morgue of the Security Bureau. If the judgment of removing internal organs and kidnapping living people for sacrifice came from If it is the body of the dream, then many things can be explained, and he can also guess that the object of the murderer's sacrifice should be the night god who created the dream world.

When Leo thought of this, he couldn't wait to see the murderer, to see if his judgment was correct, and to see if he could find out the secret about Night God from him.

Leo then asked again: "Duke White Boot, can you find the murderer?"

"If he appears." The Duke of White Boots said confidently after swallowing the last piece of dessert.

Leo pushed the two pieces of high-energy matter to the Duke of White Boots and said, "Then these two pieces of fog monster wreckage will be the reward for this matter."

"Leave it to me!" The Duke of White Boots couldn't wait to gather the high-energy substances together, and then squeaked twice towards the window. He wrapped up those items that Leo didn't need, carried them on his back, and ran out with them.

In addition, a few elf mice, who were obviously much stronger, ran into the house carrying a box on their backs. Under the command of the Duke of White Boots, they carefully wrapped the pieces of high-energy matter with a soft cloth and put them in the box. Inside, and then quickly ran out of the room with the box on his back.

"As soon as I have news, I will send my men to look for you. Then you just need to follow my men." Seeing that what he wanted has been obtained, the Duke of White Boots has no intention of staying any longer, and said to Leo Finally, without waiting for Leo's answer, he jumped onto the windowsill and ran out impatiently.

Seeing the Duke of White Boots leave, Leo tidied up the room, ate something casually, asked Sophie to take down the dinner plate and the rest of the food, and went upstairs to the secret room to prepare the tranquility potion.

Because he was concentrating on one thing, time passed quickly. When the rest period area on the time ring was lit up, Leo had already used up several medicinal materials in the medicine cabinet for refining tranquility potion. I bought five bottles of Serenity Potion.

Originally, there could not be so few potions refined, but Leo tried to improve the potion in the middle, to see if he could pull out or weaken the side effects of the potion with the knowledge he had learned from the dream world medicine books in the downstairs room.

Obviously, Leo overestimated his ability a little bit. Through the data analysis and simulation operation of the sub-brain system, through the existing prescriptions and medicine refining techniques, it may not be difficult to refine the medicine, but it is not like him to improve the medicine. It was as easy as expected.

At least, Leo tried more than a dozen times before and after, all of which failed. In the end, he accidentally added a bit of debris from the ice crystals obtained from the ice and snow world to the refined medicine, which made the side effects of the medicine much weaker. . And he only refined two bottles of this potion with weakened side effects. Even if there are still a lot of ice crystals, he can refine more tranquil potions. This unique ice crystal was completely consumed.

When entering the rest period, Sophie downstairs rang the bell according to Leo's instructions to remind Leo that it was time. Leo in the pharmaceutical secret room heard the bell, immediately packed up his things, went downstairs, gave Sophie an order, left the room, and walked towards the twenty-seventh district.

Perhaps because of the hostile relationship between the two urban districts, there is no direct suspension bridge between the 23rd district and the 27th district, so they can only take a detour in the 11th or 17th districts next to the two districts.

Originally, Leo planned to go to District 11, but when he reached the roof of the building where the suspension bridge was located, he found that the suspension bridge was sealed and no one was allowed to enter or exit. In the direction of District 11 opposite, many guards and city guards could be seen. Walking through the streets, as if searching for something.

"What happened in the eleventh district?" Leo walked up to a city guard officer guarding the bridge, and asked the configuration man with a pair of long horns on his forehead and sheep's hoof-shaped lower limbs.

The city guard officer couldn't help frowning when he saw Leo's abnormal complexion, his eyes showed obvious disgust, and was about to drive away the man in front of him, but when he saw the man took out a card from his pocket Finally, the look of disgust in his eyes and the arm that was about to drive people away were immediately retracted.

As a city guard in charge of public security in the city, what he needs to learn on his first day is neither how to deal with vicious gangsters, nor how to get more money from merchants in the city, but to recognize the tokens and names of various noble families. post.

Otherwise, inadvertently offending a big person who shouldn't be offended, the best result is to be punished by the superior, and then sent to guard the city wall, and the worst result is to be inexplicably disappeared that day, and even the identity will be erased , as if this person never existed.

The city guard officer in front of Leo knew all the name cards of noble families very well, and the card in Leo's hand was the most familiar one. After all, the family and friends cards of the Alcott family were very famous, so After giving a military salute to Leo, he explained in detail what was happening in District 11 as much as possible.
