The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 16 The Accident After the Accident

Although he was very surprised by the strength of his psionic skills, Leo also knew that this was not a good place to think.

So, he walked up to the corpse of the throat cutter, took the tomahawk off the head, wiped the blood from the ax on the clothes of the corpse, and then looked at the old hunter with a calm expression and smiled. He said: "I think this matter should be over like this. Because of a small incident, one person has already died, and there should be no more losses. Mr. Bober, what do you think?"

At this moment, the old hunter didn't choose to hold on to the end, because the strength Leo showed just now made him sure that the person in front of him should not be messed with. Although retreating now would have some impact on his reputation, compared to dying at the opponent's hands the next moment, this impact was obviously nothing.

So, the old hunter showed an ugly smile, nodded, and said, "You are right, I think so too."

The retreat of the old hunter caused an uproar among the surrounding people, and those people looked at the old hunter with a little more contempt, and some members of other gangs walked out quietly, and it seemed that they were going to take this matter to rest. Let's spread the word to blow the old hunter's prestige.

The members of the Blood Ax Gang seemed to be dissatisfied with the retreat of the old hunter, but they knew that if the bloody fight continued, the next person to die would be any one of them, so that kind of dissatisfaction was not very strong.

Seeing the old hunter retreating softly, Leo didn't make any progress, he just walked up to the owner of the Paneer battle ax in his hand, and said to him who had already developed fear in his eyes: "Your ax is very useful, I just lack a pair of symmetry. The weapon in my hand, can you give me the other battle ax as well?"

"Of, of course, of course!" The strong man didn't have the guts to refute Leo's request, and hurriedly handed the battle ax in his hand to Leo, and even took the special ax belt around his waist, handing it over to Leo. Gave it to Leo.

Leo picked up two tomahawks and a belt, and gestured to Jason, whose surprised expression had not dissipated, and the two walked out of the tavern and returned to the hotel room under the watchful eyes of everyone.

After returning to the room, Jason told Nelson excitedly what happened in the tavern, and was extremely curious about how Leo threw that tomahawk and so on. On the other hand, because of this conflict in the tavern of the High Tower Hotel, Rabbit Skin Town caused quite a stir.

In Rabbitskin Town, the Blood Ax Gang is not considered the strongest gang and faction, but it occupies a part of the valuable Black Forest specialty trade share, which makes many gang forces covet this share, Hope to be able to take it from the blood ax gang.

However, in the past, because of the old hunter's own abilities and means, and the fact that a large number of desperate hunters gathered around the old hunter, those who coveted him did not dare to turn their ideas into actions.

When the old hunter was threatened by someone in the tavern and chose to back down, it was like a signal, a signal of attack to all those who coveted the territory of the Blood Ax Gang.

Leo's matter was just a flash point. In fact, as the old hunter began to retreat to the background in recent years, no matter whether it was the battle on the territory of Rabbit Town or the collection of special products in the Black Forest, he never took part in it himself. , so there have been rumors that the old hunter is old in the town.

Now the retreat of the old hunter just confirmed this rumor. When the story in the tavern was spread by interested people, five other gangs entrenched around the site of the Blood Ax gang quickly gathered and invaded the site of the old hunter. .

Although these five preemptive gangs are not very big, and are slightly weaker than the Blood Axe Gang, but when the five are united together, their strength is far superior to the Blood Axe Gang, and behind these five gangs, there is a different gang. The small chamber of commerce is secretly supporting them, and the background of the gang is much stronger than that of the helpless Blood Axe gang.

When the five gangs jointly attacked the blood ax gang's territory, the old hunter suddenly disappeared, and the person who directed the blood ax gang to resist the siege of the gang was the second in command.

Many people think that the old hunter ran away first because of the bad situation. The big and small gangs in the town also think that the blood ax gang is going to be over this time, and those big gangs and powerful forces are waiting for the blood ax gang to be destroyed before they make a move , share the biggest cup with the least cost.

However, to everyone's surprise, when the five gangs forced the members of the Blood Ax Gang into their headquarters and were about to wipe them all out, the old hunter who had disappeared before reappeared and brought back two There are more than a hundred musketeers, and all musketeers use special bullets.

After the old hunter appeared, he did not lead people to rescue the headquarters of the Blood Ax Gang immediately. Instead, he led people to take over the resident of the five gangs as quickly as possible, and then returned to the headquarters of the Blood Ax Gang. Before the members of the guild had time to react, they joined forces with the members of the headquarters to attack all the members of the five guilds.

Although the members of the Blood Ax Gang suffered heavy losses after this battle, with less than a hundred of them intact, but because the old hunter brought in more than two hundred musketeers, the strength of the Blood Ax Gang not only did not weaken, but on the contrary Enhanced. With the destruction of the five surrounding gangs, the territory controlled by the old hunter more than tripled, occupying about one-fifth of the Rabbit Skin Town, and became one of the largest forces in the Rabbit Skin Town.

Everything was developing too fast. Just a moment ago, there was news that the Blood Ax Gang was about to disappear. The next moment, I heard that the old hunter led people to solve the five gangs. Before anyone could react, what happened? It happened, and I heard that everything was over, and the Blood Ax gang began to accept the territory of the five gangs.

It took less than two hours from the time when the five gangs besieged the Blood Ax Gang to when the Blood Ax Gang swallowed up the five gangs. Even if someone wanted to do something, it was too late to gather people.

Although those big forces in Rabbitskin Town, who were waiting to reap the profits, did not want to see the rise of the Blood Ax Gang, and wanted to do something when the Blood Ax Gang accepted five gang sites and the personnel were scattered. However, in the end they did not do anything, but sat and watched the Blood Ax Gang swallow the victory bit by bit, completely absorbing it.

The reason why they didn't do anything was not because the strength shown by the Blood Ax Gang was stronger than them, which made them feel intimidated, but because they found that the more than two hundred musketeers brought by the old hunter were well-trained professional gunmen. shooter.

Moreover, the bullets used by these musketeers are all extremely expensive special-made bullets. The number of bullets that have been used alone is 1,000 rounds, and the number of bullets that have not been used may not be less than this number.

In the entire Velen Continent, only the French Empire has formed a well-organized professional musketeer corps. Most of the other countries are just ordinary soldiers carrying a musket with ordinary bullets when they go to the battlefield, which is not a special musketeer corps. .

The musketeers of the Farland Empire have 3,000 weaves, because they are directly under the emperor's command, and the financial expenditure is also the royal private treasury, so they are also called the royal musketeers of the Farland, or they are called royal blue clothes according to the color of their uniforms. guard.

Although the more than two hundred musketeers brought by the old hunter did not have any items related to the Blue Guards, careful people could see a strong shadow of the Blue Guards musketeers from the way these people attacked .

Then there is the special bullet used by the Musketeers. This special bullet is very expensive because of the need to add a rare stabilizer, and it requires special channels to purchase, and it cannot be bought with money.

The general aristocrats of the Farland Empire would buy at most a dozen of these bullets for self-defense, and no more than a hundred of them. Only the army of the Farland Empire would purchase and stockpile such special bullets in large quantities.

It's just that every bullet of the French Empire's army will be recorded in the military department. It is impossible to take out more than a thousand bullets casually, and only the private guards of the French royal family can use so many bullets silently.

For a long time, the big and small forces in Rabbit Skin Town believed that the Blood Ax Gang formed by the old hunters did not have any background support, so when the benefits of Rabbit Skin Town were becoming saturated and it was difficult to find new interests from the outside, they were the first to What I thought of was to get rid of the helpless Blood Ax Gang and share the benefits of the Blood Ax Gang.

But now they realize that the backstage of the Blood Ax Gang may be the royal family of Farland, and the Blood Ax Gang has changed from a fat fish that can be eaten at any time to a giant crocodile with its bloody mouth wide open. Talent is the kind of prey that should fear being swallowed up.

Facing the new form of Rabbit Skin Town, the big and small forces in Rabbit Skin Town and the backers behind them are all thinking about how to deal with the expansion of the Blood Axe Gang and how to deal with the interests of the royal family starting to officially intervene in the Black Forest. I'm afraid it's time to lose sleep.

However, compared to these people who cared about the interests of the Black Forest, Leo and the other three who did not care about the interests of the Black Forest slept soundly, perhaps because they were too exhausted during the two-day escape. The night was very heavy, and even the gunshots and shouts in the town did not wake them up.

Leo, who was supposed to be the most vigilant, also fell asleep at this time. This was mainly because he had consumed a lot of energy by activating his psychic energy and facing unknown existences. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I fell asleep soon after returning to the room.

It's just that Leo didn't know that he accidentally escaped a catastrophe while he was sleeping.

After the Blood Ax gang won the final victory, someone proposed to get rid of Leo who caused the incident, but this proposal was rejected by the old hunter on the grounds that he would take over the territories of the five gangs as soon as possible to consolidate the results of the battle.

As for whether the old hunter wants to swallow and consolidate the surrounding territory as soon as possible, rather than causing troubles, or because he is still afraid of the power displayed by Leo, it is not known.

On the contrary, because of the old hunter's decision, those who paid attention to the Blood Ax Gang in Rabbit Skin Town had an illusion, thinking that what happened in the tavern might be just a show, a game to lure greedy people to do it, and give the royal family a chance to send someone The stage play that directly intervened in the interests of the Black Forest also made some people think that Leo might be a member of the royal family of France.

Leo didn't know anything about the random guessing of his identity by the forces in Rabbit Skin Town. Then again, even if he knew, he didn't care. What he cares about now is how much personal data he has after a night's rest Variety.

So when he was woken up from a deep sleep by Jason, he didn't think about why he fell into such a deep sleep, nor did he think about what countermeasures he would have to take when he officially entered the Black Forest today. The data interface opens to view the recovery status of various attributes.

After a night's rest, the physical point has been restored to its full state, and the spiritual point has also been restored to six points. Along with the spiritual point, the psionic energy whose value has increased to sixty points is restored. The willpower that Leo paid the most attention to also recovered to 18 points. Although it was not able to recover to full value, it also exceeded his expectations, which was quite a surprise.

After checking the recovery of his personal attributes, Leo put his mind back on the matter of walking through the Black Forest. Before activating his psychic power, he was confident that he could pass through the Black Forest. Now he has activated his psychic power. , and because of the psychic skill assisted by the spirit net, it is no longer a problem for him to pass through the Lower Black Forest of Brumy Moon.

Although Leo was very confident, Nelson didn't know what to do. He repeatedly checked the various equipment prepared yesterday, and also checked the equipment of Leo and Jason several times until he couldn't find any. It was only when he felt something was wrong that Jason left the room at Jason's urging.

The three of them went down to the restaurant on the first floor of the hotel and had breakfast. Nelson packed some portable dry bread for emergencies.

When entering the restaurant, neither Nelson nor Jason felt anything unusual, but Leo quickly noticed that many eyes were sweeping over him. After he sat down, some people even observed him directly, as if Keep in mind that his looks are average.

After spending a little tip, Leo knew from the waiter in the restaurant why he was so noticed. At the same time, he was also surprised by what happened in Rabbit Skin Town last night, and felt that Rabbit Skin Town is not a place to stay for a long time.

Although Leo wasn't afraid of the Blood Ax gang's revenge, he didn't think he could keep Jason and Nelson safe when he was besieged with psychic powers. So after breakfast, he dissuaded Nelson, who was going to pay a visit to the teacher at the herbal shop, and the three of them packed their bags and left Rabbitskin Town through the side door facing the Black Forest.

Not long after the three of Leo left the town, a group of hunters with Panier battle axes hanging on their waists, muskets and crossbows on their backs chased them out of the town, and followed the route that the three of Leo were marching , and chased in the direction of the Black Forest.

Just as the thirty-strong hunter-hunter team left the town, the relevant news reached the old hunter who was in command of the Blood Ax Gang, and the old hunter's expression became extremely gloomy when he heard the news. The anger seemed to ignite everyone in the room at any moment.
