The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Mr. Leo, what have you been doing these days?" Dean Thomas, who had recovered from his jealousy and fright, had to lean against the wall to keep himself on his feet, even though he could touch these things, He still had a feeling of unreality, and asked Leo suspiciously.

Although the appearance of these things in front of him is very different from the relics of prehistoric civilization he has seen before, he can still see from some details that the manufacturing process of these things piled up in the warehouse is very similar to the relics of prehistoric civilization. It is an item made by a different civilization, so it has its own style.

This is not the first time he has seen such a large number of relics of prehistoric civilization. In fact, the royal family of Teresa has a prehistoric civilization site, and the various relics of prehistoric civilization excavated from that site are a little bit Not much less than the number of these relics he has seen now.

But the problem is that most of those relics are damaged or severely corroded, most of them have no research value, and the relics of prehistoric civilization that are presented to him now, judging from his experience, most of them should be intact, Great research value, the two are not the same.

And more importantly, these prehistoric civilization relics do not belong to a certain family, a certain force, or a certain country, but are owned by individuals. This is unique among the various information he knows about the ownership of prehistoric civilization relics. Even Queen Teresa, who claims to be the kingdom, only nominally owns all the relics of that site. In fact, those relics belong to the entire Theresa royal family, the Belmont family and the academic city, not individuals.

Dean Thomas knew that Leo was not in the academic city during this time, so he asked Teresa, but he didn't get an answer. He thought that Leo was going to track down the detachment organization. After all, Joan and Penny left earlier. He also knew, and after knowing Joan's identity, he could guess that some people in the inner circle of the organization valued Joan very much, so once Joan was placed on the order, those people would definitely move.

Before Leo left the school city, he also received news that some people in the core circle of the organization had already had contact with Joan, but the process was not smooth, and he planned to send other people to contact Joan. He would think that Leo was going to deal with this matter, and his attention was also on Joan and Penny, and he also used his status as the dean of the academy city to dispatch a team of secret agents from the kingdom to closely monitor there In order to intervene in time to ease the conflict before something irreversible happens.

But what he never expected was that during the ten or so days after Leo left the school city, he went to an unknown civilization relic to mobile phone relics of prehistoric civilization.

Anyone who has explored the remains of prehistoric civilizations knows how dangerous such places are. In many cases, whether they can exit safely can only depend on luck. Some seemingly safe areas actually lurk terrible dangers, and when these dangers erupt Often accompanied by massive casualties.

According to him, when the royal family of Teresa excavated that prehistoric civilization site, many people were trapped, and even the Belmont family died in the death trap hidden in the site.

But now Leo not only returned safely, but also collected so many relics, which is like a miracle. The most important point is that he couldn't figure out how Leo brought these things to the warehouse.

The people guarding the warehouse were carefully arranged by him. He knows the situation inside the warehouse very well, so he can be sure that not long ago, the warehouse was still empty, and no one moved things in the middle, but so many relics of prehistoric civilization appeared like this In the warehouse, this made him wonder if Leo had the magical ability to contain items, just like the heroes blessed by gods in some legends.

"I went to an interesting place and took some things with me." Facing Dean Thomas' question, Leo's answer was simple, but it was enough to make people think, and then he asked: "Dean Thomas, Is there a suitable place to store these things?"

Dean Thomas thought about it seriously, and said seriously: "The value of these things is really amazing. Whether it is known by the Church of True God or by the organization, they will get these things at all costs. Moving these things to other places will definitely leak the news, it would be better to directly transform this warehouse and the surrounding area into a special research base, and send the nearby Kingdom Legion to guard it, which would be better."

After listening to Dean Thomas' proposal, Leo thought about it and thought it was a good proposal. Then he looked at Sylvia and asked for her opinion. After she agreed, he entrusted the matter to Thomas. Dean.

"Because it is necessary to mobilize a Kingdom Legion as a guard force, I am afraid that His Majesty needs to be informed of this matter." Dean Thomas added.

"You can tell her that we talked about cooperation before," Sylvia made a decision for Leo, and emphasized: "However, if they want to send someone to study together, they can't come empty-handed."

"Is there anything that needs to be paid?" Dean Thomas hesitated for a moment and asked, "Do you have any conditions that I should pass on?"

Sylvia shook her head, and then said like a charade, "No need to convey, she should know what we want, you just need to tell her the situation of this warehouse, and then let her decide how much to bring over. "

After hearing Sylvia's words, Dean Thomas didn't ask any more questions, and then, on behalf of the Academy City, asked if the Academy City could send people to participate in the research. After getting an affirmative answer, he couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. Smiling, then took a deep look at the items piled up in the warehouse, turned and left the warehouse.

In the next few days, Leo and Sylvia sorted out the collected things in the warehouse. They sorted and classified them according to four aspects: biological remains, technological creations, energy substances, and unknown objects. The barriers are clearly divided into four piles of items.

It is somewhat surprising that the scholars who were studying the relics in the dark room did not show too much enthusiasm after they got the news about the warehouse from Dean Thomas, except for two or three who had no research work on hand. Some scholars chose to go outside the warehouse in Book Town, while others stayed in the black house to continue their research.

It is reasonable for these black house scholars to make such a choice. After all, they have already had certain research results and are improving the research materials. At this time, they will abandon the items that have been studied for many years and start researching new ones. It's really unrealistic.

Leo didn't have much idea about how many people the Academy would send to participate in this research. It didn't matter how many people came to him, and he also thought that even if those people came, it would be impossible to research anything. After all, almost all of these items are products of alien civilizations, and these things are not only very different from the creations of the Earth Federation in appearance, but also completely different in interior. It is impossible to research anything useful after a thousand years of research.

However, Dean Thomas obviously didn't want the Academy City to waste this opportunity to get in touch with so many so-called prehistoric civilization relics, so he turned to select people to participate in the research from other places. He also actively participated in this matter, and even recruited several retired old scholars who had previous experience in studying the relics of prehistoric civilizations. Finally, forty names were listed on the list of people who participated in the research. A quarter of them are scholars who have joined Leo and Sylvia's research labs, and the other three quarters are almost all tutors in the city.

It is naturally impossible to hide the fact that the academy dispatched so many tutors to join a certain mysterious research project at one time. After all, most of these tutors teach part-time, and so many tutors are replaced at the same time, no matter how dull people can feel it. Something is wrong.

It's just that Xuecheng has done a good job of keeping the secrecy in this area until the tutor is dispatched to the warehouse, let alone those who don't know, even those tutors who have been included in the quota don't know that they Where will they be dispatched, what kind of research will be carried out, and many of them even regretted it before leaving.

However, all regrets disappeared after they entered the warehouse and saw all kinds of artificial artifacts stacked on the ground that obviously exceeded the technology of the times. Their mood at that time was the same as that of Dean Thomas when he saw those objects. same, or even ten times stronger. After calming down, they patiently listened to Leo's introduction of the basic situation of various items, and then they couldn't wait to devote themselves to the research work, because some of them were from the black house. , They have rich research experience, so under their precepts and deeds, all research work is going on in an orderly manner.

At the same time, Queen Teresa also received the news here. After confirming that the news was not a mistake, but that Leo had indeed obtained a batch of astonishing relics of prehistoric civilization, she had to concentrate her energy on the important things she was dealing with. At the same time, they are also considering how much secret information related to the gods and the mysteries of this world should be brought to Leo and the others.

In addition, she not only ordered the Kingdom Legion near the Academy City to be stationed around the warehouse in Book Town, but she even felt that doing so was not safe enough, even though she knew very well that the strength of Leo and Sylvia would not be a problem unless the gods personally ended the battle. Nothing would happen, but a team of royal private guards was still dispatched to garrison, and the command of the private guards was handed over to Sylvia.

Such a large-scale transfer of legions and personnel will naturally attract the attention of some interested people, and the warehouse outside Book Town has become the focus of their inquiries, but when they started to move, the surrounding area of ​​the warehouse had been tightly sealed, and The Royal Legion dispatched directly flattened the houses around the warehouse, established a clear isolation zone, and built a simple fence around the perimeter. The city guards sent by the Chengtiao completely protected the warehouse.

All forces have sent their own elite personnel to try to find out what secrets are in that warehouse. It is worthy of the attention of the City of Academics and the Kingdom of Teresa, and even sent heavy troops. However, except for a few people who saw When there was no opportunity to take advantage of the tight defense, other than choosing to continue to wait, everyone else took the risk to sneak in, and without exception, they were arrested before they got close to the city wall, and even after they were arrested, their strongholds were also stolen .

It's no wonder that these elite spies fell here. They didn't know that they had been discovered the moment they approached the barracks, because after the Kingdom Legion set up the barracks, Leo took out some detection, Surveillance wizards and wonders are placed throughout the barracks, and record the vital signs of all soldiers in the barracks. Once someone who is not recorded breaks in, the person's location will be automatically projected into the minds of everyone in the barracks , It's like throwing yourself into a trap, it's hard not to catch it.

In the warehouse, after Leo sorted out all the collected items, he handed over the follow-up tasks to Sylvia, such as how to arrange the scholars and experts dispatched by the school city and the royal family, which items can be studied by them, Which items cannot be touched, etc., while he himself stayed in the temporary room in the corner of the warehouse, sorting out and restoring the data downloaded from the general-purpose recorder.

I don't know if it's because he directly disconnected the universal recorder while it was cracking, or because the main control database of the overlord-class battleship itself has been damaged. All in all, the data he downloaded is huge. Some of them are unprocessed garbled codes, only a small part can be read normally, and this small part of the content that can be read normally also makes Leo temporarily give up research on the collected alien civilization creations, and It is dedicated to sorting out and restoring garbled data.

The content of this readable data that made Leo change his plan is mainly a battle report. Three things are clearly mentioned in this battle report. One thing is that this battle report was written seven hundred and ninety-four years after his death, The recording method of the cosmic calendar has not changed, but the chronological method of the Earth Federation has become the sacred earth chronology, and the chronological number is 643 years, that is to say, 151 years after his death At that time, the Earth Federation encountered extremely major political changes, so that the regime was also replaced.

This speculation made Leo feel unbelievable, because in his memory, although the Earth Federation at that time was in some turmoil in the border areas controlling the star area, it was very stable within the Federation, and the momentum of the entire Federation was also showing an upward trend. Some people inside have already begun to prepare for the Earth Federation to become a higher cosmic civilization in the future. Under such circumstances, the huge federal government was overthrown in just over a hundred years. It is absolutely impossible for this to happen according to normal development. What happened, Leo was also deeply puzzled.
