The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"What happened back then? How did you get to the Kingdom of Teresa?" Seeing Rupert Fitz bowing his head, Leo asked directly without being polite.

"I also want to know how I came to Yuan Continent?" Rupert Fitz smiled bitterly, worried that Leo would not believe what he said, and added: "I didn't hide it on purpose, and there is no need to hide it. I really don’t know how I came to Yuan Continent.” After speaking, he was silent for a while, and continued: “I remember that the gray fog suddenly appeared and enveloped the entire king’s capital, and the gray fog was full of dangerous monsters. My Majesty and I were protected by the guards and escaped from the capital, but on the way we encountered a monster as huge as a mountain and broke us up, and I was attacked on the way to escape to the secret room of the capital, and fell into a coma In the past, when I woke up, I had already arrived at the North Desert in the north of Yuan Continent."

After hearing the words, Leo thought for a while and asked, "Is there anything unusual about you at that time?"

Rupert Fitz was stunned, with a strange look on his face, and asked, "How did you know there was something abnormal about me at that time?"

"Guess." Leo gave a very simple but unconvincing answer.

Although Rupert Fitz was sure that Leo was not telling the truth, he had no way to continue to ask. After all, he was completely passive in the current situation, so he thought for a while and said: "There is indeed an abnormal situation. Not to mention the abnormality of the body, the most important thing is that there is a problem with my memory. There are many memories in my mind that should not exist. Those memories involve some incredible knowledge, and... and Information about some treasures."

Leo asked: "The knowledge should be related to the civilization of the universe and the starry sky? And those treasures should be the various relics left by the civilization of the universe and the starry sky?"

If Rupert Fitz had normal eyes at this time, his eyes would definitely be full of surprise, which echoed the shocked expression on his face now.

"Could it be that..." Rupert Fitz quickly guessed in his heart, and asked in a deep voice.

Leo didn't give any response, but continued to ask: "What happened later? What happened after you came to Yuan Continent?"

Seeing that Leo didn't answer his question, Rupert Fitz didn't ask further. After thinking about it for a while, he narrated some things that happened after he came here, although his tone of narration was very flat. , the content he said sounded straightforward, without any waves, but in fact, the content he narrated showed that his experience back then was not much worse than that of a low-level businessman who became the prime minister of a country step by step in the world of Velen. It would be legendary on anyone.

Shortly after entering the Yuan Continent, Rupert Fitz was captured by the local Sand Bandits. Together with the others captured by the Sand Bandits, they were sent to the nearest city as slaves, and were prepared to be bought by local nobles and lords.

Because of his age, no one bought Rupert Fitz. According to the rules of Sand Pirates, the unsold slaves would be disposed of immediately after the transaction. It may have been sent to the nearby Colosseum as food for beasts.

However, when Rupert Fitz was sent to the Colosseum, he seized the opportunity to show the owner of the Colosseum the ability to tame animals. This ability is not Rupert Fitz's own ability , but an ability in those memories he got.

Although due to the language barrier, Rupert Fitz acted like a mute, but his animal taming ability was still well displayed. He was favored by the owner of the Colosseum and bought him from Sand Pirates down.

After that, he worked as an animal trainer in the Colosseum for two years. At the same time, he was also secretly learning the language of this world, and at the same time secretly familiarized himself with the situation of the Colosseum and collected various outside information until one day he was caught. , And those sand robbers who sold him as a slave came to the Colosseum again, and brought a group of slaves that could not be sold to buy them as food for the beasts in the Colosseum. The owner of the field sent them to the beast cage together, and opened the cage doors of all hungry beasts.

The final result is self-evident. After the owner of the Colosseum and those sand robbers were killed by wild beasts, he released all the wild beasts from the Colosseum to create turmoil in the city. Then, using the information he collected, he found The place where the owner of the Colosseum hid money, took part of the money and jewelry, and left quietly, and before he left, he threw the remaining money everywhere, causing the people in the city to pick it up, further creating chaos, and hiding himself. whereabouts.

After that, Rupert Fitz got rid of the hunters sent by the desert city with his extraordinary wisdom, and also relied on his own ability and extraordinary charm to gather a group of men. After escaping from the desert, He changed his identity in a nearby country, then founded a caravan, followed the familiar development routine again, and also used the caravan as a cover to travel in various countries, looking for the relics and treasures in his memory.

With his talent, he became a wealthy businessman in a very short period of time. At the same time, because of his knowledge, he became a famous university scholar. When excavating a certain relic in his memory, he encountered The people who came to the Transcendence Organization, and after learning about the situation of the Transcendence Organization, took the initiative to reveal some extraordinary knowledge, such as how to use the items excavated from certain ruins, etc., and then obtained the initiative of the Transcendence Organization Invitation to become a member of the organization.

In a short period of time, he climbed to the top position in the inner circle of the organization, only one step away from the inner circle, but he found that the people who joined the inner circle needed some extraordinary transformation, and found that almost all the people in the inner circle were inhuman existence , so in order to consciously alienate the detachment organization, and gradually withdraw from the inner ring management.

Later, he went to the Kingdom of Teresa and knew that there was a Belmont family in the Kingdom of Teresa. He knew the family history of the Belmont family in the world of Velen very well, and like Sylvia, he thought that this was the Belmont family of the world of Velen. The branch of the Monte family, so he went to the Kingdom of Teresa to actively contact the then king and the Duke of Belmont, and quickly gained their trust.

After gaining trust, in order to better study the relics he found, he chose to train assistants for himself, so the academic city was established, and after the academic city was established, he also organized with the detachment A breakup, because the detached organization intends to take control of Academic City from him.

Only Rupert Fitz has been perfecting the system of the city of learning, and at the same time researching various relics and equipment, sorting out the knowledge in his memory, until he got the news about the legendary original place, and brought He went to explore the original land, and he had an accident again, and was attacked by fanatical followers of the original church.

Speaking of this, Rupert Fitz stopped suddenly, and then turned his head towards the direction of the door. At this time, there was some movement outside the door, which should be the return of other mechanical spiders who went to collect crystals.

Leo also sensed the situation outside the door, but he didn't take the initiative to do it. He turned his head and gestured to Penny and Joan who had been standing by the side, but Penny and Joan didn't understand the two words in French at all. Feeling a little boring about what he said, after receiving Leo's instructions, he turned and walked out of the room.

Not long after the two walked out, there were bursts of noisy sounds outside, accompanied by the unique singing of Joan performing the holy knight magic.

"Do you think the two of them can defeat my gadget?" Rupert Fitz said in a deep voice.

"Yes, but it won't be easy." Leo said confidently. If it was just Joan, he would never think that a paladin of the False Lord is capable of defeating this kind of mechanical creation, but if you add Penny The situation is different.

Sure enough, it didn't take long before I heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, and the house shook a few times along with the sound. After a while, Petunia, who was a bit disheveled, and Joan, who was injured, walked in. They were embarrassed, but there was a smile on their faces. Obviously, they were imprisoned here these days. Although they didn't suffer any harm, it made them feel extremely bad. The battle just now just let them vent their emotions. The mood also improved a lot.

Leo looked at the two, took out a bottle of healing potion and threw it to Joan, then turned to Rupert Fitz and said, "What happened when you went to explore the place where you were?"

"I don't remember." Rupert Fitz said, shaking his head.

Leo frowned slightly.

"I really don't remember." Although he couldn't see Leo's expression, Rupert Fitz could guess what Leo was thinking now, so he said, "It's the same as when I came here from Velen. The world is the same. After I dealt with a group of fanatics of the Church of the Primitives, I planned to open the sealed original place according to the method in memory. As a result, after a light passed, I fell into a coma. When I woke up again, I was already here and a different body."

Leo sensed that Rupert Fitz wasn't lying, so he asked, "Didn't you do the brain replacement surgery yourself?"

"Of course not. No matter how much I wanted to extend my life back then, I would never choose to replace this disabled body." Rupert Fitz laughed at himself, and then saw him using psychic power to control his body. His body floated up. Although his feet looked normal, he actually didn't feel anything about his lower body. If he wanted to move, he could only float in the air through his spiritual energy and walk.

Leo feels that this should be related to the brain replacement surgery. Rupert Fitz's brain obviously does not fit this body, and there is a rejection reaction. It is only because of technological means and his own powerful spiritual power that the rejection The reaction was not fatal, but it left him paralyzed from the lower body.

"Where is this place?" Leo asked again.

"I guess it might be where it is." Rupert Fitz said in a deep voice.

"Guess?" Leo asked.

Rupert Fitz said with an extremely bitter face: "I can only guess, because after I come here, I can never leave this house again."

Leo was completely stunned. He had never expected to hear such words. He had always believed that Rupert Fitz was the absolute controller here, but now he said that he was more like a prisoner, and he was still being held A prisoner who has been imprisoned for many years, think how many years have passed since he disappeared.

"Is it hard for you to believe it?" Rupert Fitz said as if he could clearly feel Leo's emotions.

"It's really hard to believe." Leo admitted, "I thought you were the controller here."

"But this is the truth." Rupert Fitz said calmly, "I have something in my mind, and that thing will tell me what to do. I don't need to leave here, I just need to give instructions to the things in my mind , I can produce this kind of non-artificial objects, I can order these non-artificial objects to do things, and I can even see what is happening around them through the eyes of these creatures, but I can’t directly control them, I can only pass them on. Clear instructions one by one, from a certain aspect I am indeed the controller with the highest authority here, but my controller is still controlled by other unknown beings."

Leo was silent for a moment, then questioned: "Since you can't leave here, how did you kidnap my students here?"

"Although I can't leave here, the non-artificial things I create can be unlimited," Rupert Fitz said truthfully: "I felt a long time ago that the opportunity for me to leave this place and get rid of control was within me. This kind of power on my body, but I don’t know anything about this kind of power. It’s very difficult to create a way to use this kind of power, so I made a lot of non-artificial objects and put them all out. The only instruction I gave them was Look for someone with the same power as me. For a long time, the non-artificial objects that have been released have not returned any useful information. I know that one of the non-artificial objects brought your students here not long ago."

After hearing this, Leo always felt that something was wrong. After thinking for a while, he asked in a deep voice, "Do these non-artificial objects you created have the ability to leave this space?"

Rupert Fitz was puzzled: "Space? Of course not. If the non-artificial objects I created had this ability, how could I still be trapped in this house?"

After hearing this, Leo turned his head to Joan and Penny, and said, "Tell me again how you were taken captive here."

After hearing this, Joan and Penny glanced at each other, and then told Leo what they had said in the dungeon.

At this time, Rupert Fitz seemed to have heard something wrong, and said in a deep voice, "Isn't this where it used to be?"

"Where is the original land you excavated?" Leo turned his head and asked again.

"The Kingdom of Teresa has a fake primordial site, but the real primordial site is in the North Desert." Rupert Fitz replied.

Leo said in a deep voice, "It's very interesting. I can be sure that this is not the North Desert, or even the world where the source continent is located, but an incomplete small world." Then, he thought for a while, and said : "If the non-artificial objects you created can't go through the space and return to the source continent, then it's strange that my two students were taken captive here."
