The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Among the many powerful beings in this shadow world, the Earth Mother is definitely the most mysterious one, because even the powerful beings standing at the top of this shadow world, such as the Dark Spirit Lord, have never seen the real face of the Earth Mother, or even the front face. The number of times they have been in contact with it is also very small, but even so they all know that there is such a special existence as the Earth Mother, because this is what the law of the shadow world told them.

Just like its name, Mother Earth holds most of the laws related to the earth in the Shadow Realm. I don’t know if it’s because of Mother Earth’s own personality or the influence of the laws of the Earth. Mother Earth has almost never had any fights with other powerful beings in the Shadow Realm. , the vast majority are when certain battles in the shadow world have caused serious damage to the earth, they will come out to stop the battle from continuing and repair the damaged land.

Creatures in the Shadow Realm are inherently disordered and chaotic. Even those powerful beings who have grasped part of the world's laws and suppressed their nature with the power of the laws, they will still be more or less affected by their chaotic and disordered nature. Some inexplicable behaviors and decisions, but this earth mother in the shadow world is different. All the information about the earth mother, without exception, first of all, this earth mother is like the embodiment of some order and rules. In stark contrast to the behavior of other powerful existences in the shadow world, there are also rumors that the earth mother is not a shadow creature native to the shadow world.

Leo didn't really believe the rumors that the Earth Mother was not a shadow creature at first, but after the special existence of Devina, he had already believed half of it. Now that the Earth Mother appeared in front of him, he saw her Behavior, and knowing that He is the master of Dewenna's transformation into a semi-shadow state, this made him completely believe that the Earth Mother is really not a creature of this shadow world.

Although he already believed that the rumors were true, Leo still hoped to get the correct answer from the other party, so he asked straightforwardly: "Which world are you the Earth Mother?"

The Earth Mother on the opposite side hesitated for a moment, and asked back, "Why do you ask that?"

Leo then recounted the rumors he knew about the Earth Mother and his own views, and asked repeatedly: "So what? Which world are you the Earth Mother from?"

After hearing this, Mother Earth smiled and said, "Mother Earth is Mother Earth, there is no distinction between worlds."

Although the Earth Mother's answer was a bit vague, Leo had already understood what he meant, and felt a little surprised in his heart. If the other party's words were correct, then the Earth Mother in front of him might be a powerful existence far beyond imagination, and even some To a certain extent, it is comparable to the golden giant deer, the guardian of the world tree.

The reason why Leo thinks so is entirely because the earth mother in front of him is probably just an incarnation of the earth mother. There is probably one in all the worlds under the world tree, and these earth mothers no matter what their origins or conditions are. , They all belong to the same Earth Mother, that is to say, the Earth Mother is definitely a powerful existence at the level of a world tree guardian.

However, in addition to being surprised, Leo also shook his head slightly, denying some guesses about the Earth Mother, especially those related to the opponent's strength.

Obviously, if the Earth Mother is really a powerful existence at the level of the guardian of the world tree, then Leo feels that he will never be able to talk to the other party so calmly now. Leo has really seen the golden giant deer, although the golden giant deer was because of Due to the law of the world and other reasons, the breath of life on his body has been restrained to the extreme, so that he was still an ordinary person at that time without any abnormalities, but now even if he has reached the level of an eighth-level psyker, he is a semi-human being who deserves his name. He was amazing, but when he recalled the golden giant deer he saw in the Black Forest back then, he would still feel a strong emotion of shock in the form of life, but he didn't have similar emotions when he looked at the Earth Mother now.

Just when Leo was thinking about the Earth Mother, the Earth Mother took the initiative to say, "Don't worry, I'm not asking you for a crime when I come to see you."

Leo's attention was drawn back following Mother Earth's words, and he asked, "Are you blaming me for ruining your plan?"

"No, you misunderstood!" Mother Earth shook her head and explained: "Actually, the current situation of the shadow sun is much better than I expected, and even if I follow my method, it may not be as good as the current shadow sun. "Speaking, she looked up at the shadow sun in the sky, which is extremely dazzling to shadow creatures, and said: "The current shadow sun is very good, very suitable for this shadow world."

Leo was puzzled and said, "Since that's the case, why did you question my meddling in your affairs just now?"

Mother Earth continued to explain: "I said you should not meddle in the affairs of our world, not referring to the matter of the shadow sun, but the matter at the bottom of Lake Narnia."

"The bottom of Lake Narnia?" Leo was stunned for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Do you know what's going on at the bottom of Lake Narnia?"

"Of course I know. After all, such fragments are not unique to this world. There are such fragments in many worlds, but no one can control the power inside the fragments." Mother Earth stared at Lei with a strange look while explaining. Ou, although his face is covered by a hood, and there is a power hidden in the hood that can isolate all prying eyes from the outside world, even Leo's vision cannot penetrate this layer of isolation power, but Leo Still can clearly feel the scrutiny projected from the hood.

Undoubtedly, the words of the Earth Mother once again proved Leo's previous speculation. The Earth Mother in front of her is only the Earth Mother of this shadow world. There are many Earth Mothers like this. There are also meteorite fragments that contain the power of the Throne of Stone similar to the bottom of Lake Narnia.

"Do you know what that fragment is?" Leo asked tentatively.

"I don't know." Earth Mother shook her head and said, "But I know it's dangerous. Many beings as powerful as gods tried to hold that power in their hands, but they all failed without exception."

While saying these words, under the hood cast that kind of scrutiny at Leo again.

"Aren't you wondering why I can master that kind of power?" Leo asked straightforwardly.

Mother Earth was silent for a long time, then shook her head and said, "I'm not curious."

Mother Earth's answer was obviously beyond Leo's expectations. He froze for a moment, then quickly adjusted, and asked, "Why did you just say that the things at the bottom of Lake Narnia belonged to your world? Shouldn't it be a good thing for you to take away this foreign meteorite fragment and solve the abnormal situation at the bottom of Lake Narnia?"

Mother Earth sighed, and explained: "When this piece of debris appeared, it caused a huge commotion. These movements changed the shadow world, and the shadow world also made adjustments to adapt to this piece of debris, and even created me. This shadow earth mother that should not have appeared. Now that this piece of debris is taken away by you, the laws of the world that have been balanced are once again in turmoil. The turmoil in the world of shadows, maybe the entire world of shadows is now in turmoil." She paused and continued: "But even though the shadows and the sun cover up all abnormalities now, it does not mean that the abnormalities of the world after the balance is broken It's calmed down, the abnormal reaction you caused in the shadow world is only backed up for a while, after the aftermath caused by the shadow sun has completely dissipated, these abnormalities will surface, and I'm afraid..."

The Earth Mother didn't go on, leaving enough room for Leo's imagination, and Leo didn't need to think too much, and soon formed a scene in his mind after the balance of the world's laws was broken, and the most serious thing was naturally the collapse of the world , the slightest changes in weather and landforms will also occur, no matter what kind, it means that the creatures in the shadow world will definitely suffer a lot of casualties. .

"You don't have to blame yourself. This may be fate. The appearance of that fragment caused my appearance, and the disappearance of that fragment also caused its formation. This is fate." The Mother Earth comforted Leo, and looked up again. To the shadowed sun in the sky, said.

"Self-blame?" Leo smiled and said, "You may have misunderstood. I don't feel guilty. As for fate, maybe there is, but I don't believe it. I think fate should be in my own hands."

After hearing this, the Earth Mother did not refute Leo, but just looked at Leo, and said: "When your companion recovers, leave immediately! Let her not enter the shadow world for the time being, at least until the turmoil subsides." Don't come in, otherwise, she may be in danger."

Leo asked: "Danger? Who can threaten the shadow sun?"

Just now, the shadow sun directly seriously injured three powerful beings in the shadow world with three beams, directly showing the power of the shadow sun, which also made Leo's current rhetorical question not seem abrupt.

"Herself." Mother Earth gave an answer that was not surprising, but worth thinking about.

Leo didn't ask her why she hurt herself, but thought about it for a while, and said to Mother Earth: "Did you appear in front of us just to remind us?"

Under the hood of the Earth Mother, the sight of Leo once again appeared, and said: "This is only one of the reasons, and the other reason is that I want to see you."

"Look at me?" Leo hesitated for a moment, then said thoughtfully: "From what you said, it feels like you've seen me before?"

Faced with Leo's question, Mother Earth did not fabricate a lie to deceive the past, but nodded truthfully and admitted: "I have indeed seen you, but it is not in this world, and it is not you now."

Hearing Mother Earth's words, Leo's heart moved slightly, and he immediately asked: "You mean there is another me in other worlds?"

However, the Earth Mother did not answer Leo's question at this moment. She moved to Leo as if sliding on the ground, and then stretched out a hand that looked like a rock from under the burqa, holding it in her hand. A fist-sized crystal ball, and handed it to Leo.

Seeing the crystal ball handed over, Leo hesitated for a moment, then reached out and took it, but before he could ask what the crystal ball was, Mother Earth collapsed instantly as if she had melted , blended with the ground under his feet, and Leo's spiritual network only felt a thick energy dissipating in front of his eyes at this moment, but he didn't sense how the Earth Mother left.

The sudden departure of the Earth Mother caught Leo a little by surprise. In fact, he still had many questions in his heart that he wanted to ask the Earth Mother, such as what happened to her in the other world she spoke of, and what happened in the swamp beside Lake Narnia? The origin and current situation of the wizard tower, etc., but obviously the mother did not intend to answer these questions, and she resolutely withdrew and left before he spoke, as if there was something about him that made her worry. Will be stained with general.

Although the conversation with the Earth Mother in the Shadow Realm was not very rewarding, it was enough for Leo to digest, and he also got something from the Earth Mother. Even if he didn't check what it was, he could still guess Come out one or two.

I saw that he directly tested the crystal ball in his hand through the spiritual net. The moment the spiritual net touched the crystal ball, the crystal ball immediately projected a ray of light, shining on Leo's forehead. At the same time, Leo A lot of information also quickly emerged in his mind.

Because of the experience of stuffing all kinds of knowledge and data into his brain, the information projected by the crystal ball into his brain is obviously not enough to make him feel uncomfortable, and it doesn't even make him feel flustered when recording and analyzing the information. All the information in the ball was completely poured into his mind, and when the crystal ball crumbled into a ball of mud in his hands, he had already sorted out and absorbed all the information.

As he guessed in advance, the information contained in the crystal ball is the coordinate and orientation information of some worlds in the world tree, but these coordinates and orientation information need to use an interpretation method that Leo has not recorded, so some Time will be able to decipher the information recorded in it.

But Leo can also take a shortcut, because he guesses that the coordinates and orientation information of these different worlds should be able to be interpreted by the dryad Lutaxi. After all, the shuttle between different worlds bred in the world tree is one of the most basic abilities of the dryad. One, if these dryads can't discern the location information, then they won't be able to accurately travel to the exact world, and that would be a fatal danger to them.

Leo digested the coordinate information in his mind for a while, then turned around and walked back, and while walking, he also thought about what happened just now. Although it was only a short conversation, there are still many things worth thinking about for Leo, among which the most worthy Thinking about the relationship between Mother Earth and him.

At least from various signs, I or myself in a certain world have a deep relationship with the earth mother in front of me, or with the earth mother group. It is an incomparably precious treasure for a human being, but the other party gave it to him so easily. This is by no means explained by a good relationship. There must be a deeper meaning in it, but now Leo can't know it.
