The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"I want to know too." Facing Leo's direct question, Li Hongmei in front of her had a pensive look on her face, and said, "I just know that the attacker doesn't belong to that universe."

Hearing Li Hongmei's words, Leo was stunned, but he didn't fully believe the other party's words, because he wasn't even sure if the other party was the real Li Hongmei.

At this time, the abyss superior in front of him changed his form from Li Hongmei to the abyss form with horns on his head and a snake tail behind him, then looked at Leo calmly, and said, "If you want to know anything else, just ask, I don't have time." too much."

"Time is running out?" Leo felt that there was something in the other party's words.

However, before Leo could spend his time guessing, the other party revealed the answer: "My meaning is very simple. I don't have much time to stay in this world. When your goals are achieved, I can leave this world." What a hell place."

Leo frowned and said, "Do you know what we want to do?"

The abyss superior in front of him smiled and said: "Of course I know what you guys want to do. Although the process has affected me a bit, the result is what I want to see, so instead of stopping you, I will help you." You guys, help you get rid of that corrupt tongue in the ground."

"Help us solve the corrupted tongue?" Leo looked thoughtfully at the abyssal superior in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "Aren't you him?"

"What makes you think I am him?" The other party asked back, and before Leo could respond, he continued: "We still have time now, are you interested in listening to me tell a story?"

Feeling the restraint of the sacrificial column by the rune magic array in the real world, Leo was sure that even if the other party had stronger means, he could escape safely, so he nodded and motioned for the other party to continue.

Afterwards, the abyssal superior told a simple story that wasn't particularly bizarre.

In the story, an abyssal superior had a dream. In the dream, he entered a world that he had never seen before. The size of that world was comparable to that of the abyss. The strong ones he has are not weaker than any abyss upper race.

The abyss superior who entered such a magical world reincarnated as a human being. In order to avoid being discovered by the strong in this world, after reincarnating as a human being, he also sealed off all memories and lived completely according to the way of intelligent creatures in this world. It was not until his death that he awoke from his deep sleep in the abyss again.

When he woke up, he remembered all the memories of his reincarnation, and he really wanted to find that world again, because that world had endless resources waiting for him to harvest, but in the end, he couldn't find that world after exhausting all kinds of methods, but What's interesting is that he found some clues related to that world in different worlds, such as a ruin with the characteristics of that world's civilization, or a technological device that can still be used.

It was these discoveries that made him more sure that his dream was real, and that world also existed. At the same time, he wondered whether that world had been dragged into the abyss like other worlds corrupted by the abyss, and then dismembered to pieces up.

However, after he recalled the experience in the dream again, he can be sure that unless the upper races of the entire abyss are touched together to launch an unprecedented invasion war, otherwise, just one or two abyss upper races, or even one It is impossible for the two upper-class groups to have any impact on that world.

After that, he continued to look for clues related to that world, and finally he found the current world, and found that the current world is very special, but before he discovered the special features of this world, he was completely trapped in this world , unable to leave until now.

There is no doubt that the person in charge of the abyss in front of him is using the simplest words to tell his experience, but under his intentional concealment, a lot of key information in the narration has been omitted, which makes Leo feel in his heart. Not only did not solve the various questions, but more questions arose, such as what is so special about this world and so on.

Leo didn't ask the various questions in his heart, but isolated these questions from his mind to avoid affecting his judgment, and then asked the other party very calmly: "Why did you tell me this?"

The other party smiled and said: "You don't have to worry so much, I'm not calculating you, the reason why I told you this is because you are the first person I met in the process of searching for that world for so many years. I just think you are a good person to confide in intelligent creatures that have the memory of that world and can communicate normally, at least you can know what I'm talking about."

Although the other party's attitude was extremely sincere, Leo didn't really believe everything he said, even including the fact that the other party was reincarnated as Li Hongmei, but he didn't show any distrust on his face. On the contrary, his expression was one of serious thinking, as if he was considering whether he should believe what the other party said.

After pretending to ponder for a moment, Leo asked in a deep voice: "If you are not the Tongue of Corruption, then what are you? Why are you banned here together with the Tongue of Corruption?"

Leo's inquiry seemed to be expected by the other party. As soon as his voice fell, he immediately replied: "It doesn't matter what I am, just treat me as an innocent person affected, of course you You can still treat me as an enemy, but I can also tell you with certainty that I and that guy underground are mortal enemies. If you don’t believe me, I can even swear with the abyss oath, so when dealing with the fallen tongue below In fact, you and I have no conflict."

Leo didn't show any emotional changes in response to these words, but just looked at each other calmly, and the other party obviously had extraordinary patience, staring at Leo, as if two people were playing a kind of game where anyone blinks. Losing the game is the same.

After about ten minutes, suddenly the entire abyss illusion began to vibrate, and Leo knew that this situation was not caused by the maker of the abyss illusion in front of him, but that the abyss believers who were used as pawns by Sylvia had entered Arrived at the forbidden place, and triggered a series of reactions related to the corrupted tongue.

Now the abyss illusion is changing because another controller of this illusion, the Fallen Tongue, is pulling the entire illusion underground. It seems that it wants to merge with the underground labyrinth as a means of eliminating intruders.

"Stupid approach, really stupid approach!" Regarding the response of the underground corrupt tongue in the face of crisis, the abyss superior in front of him seemed extremely disdainful, and his tone was full of sarcasm: "Inferior ethnic groups are inferior ethnic groups , even if they put on the gorgeous coat of a high-ranking group, they can't cover up their stupidity and ignorance. To use the illusion of the abyss so crudely is simply..."

Before the disdainful remarks were finished, the vibration of the illusion of the abyss stopped, and then a crack appeared in the sky. Below the crack, the countless broken buildings and other products of the abyss that constituted the illusion were all sucked by the powerful suction from above. In the air, rushed towards the crack.

Seeing this scene, Leo couldn't help being stunned, because through the sacrificial pillar controlled by the rune magic circle, he clearly felt that the power that constituted the illusion of the abyss was continuing to be lost, or more correctly, being swallowed, and the devourer It should be the fallen tongue underground. It seems that he wants to recover from his injuries by devouring a large amount of the power that constitutes the illusion of the abyss.

"It's not bad to do so." This scene also made the abyss superior in front of him change his words. His tone was no longer full of disdain and sarcasm, but a little more praise.

Leo couldn't help but be a bit puzzled by what Tocatene, the tongue of the fallen, was doing now, because he was devouring the power that made up the illusion of the abyss, and he was also devouring the power of the sacrificial pillar. Once the sacrificial pillar loses these powers, it will inevitably affect the abyss The sacrificial method, even letting it self-destruct, is obviously the same as Leo, Silvia and the others guessing that Tokatni, the fallen tongue, wants to sacrifice Huajing City and the entire polar mountains, so as to obtain the gift of the will of the abyss. Create an abyss territory here.

But now it seems that it is completely different from their guesses. Doing so will not only destroy the abyss sacrifice method, but will not be able to get the attention of the abyss will. On the contrary, it may be disgusted by the abyss will.

"Could it be..." Leo suddenly thought of something when he was puzzled by Tokatney's coping method, and couldn't help but look at the abyss superior in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "The gift in Huajing City You set up the sacrificial pillars, you wanted to sacrifice the entire Huajing City, it was the abyss sacrificial method you performed, and you made and arranged these sacrificial pillars." He paused for a moment, and said again: " The illusion of the abyss was created by Tokatney, and you wanted to take it away through the sacrificial pillar, but it seems that you didn't succeed, you just got part of the authority."

"Not bad, very good!" At this time, the appearance of the abyss superior changed into that of Li Hongmei again, and said: "Although there are some mistakes, the conclusion is right."

"What's wrong?" Leo looked at the shattered illusion of the abyss in the distance like pieces of paper being sucked into the air by the powerful suction from above, feeling as if he was the one being sucked into the air the next moment, and at this moment The expression on his face still didn't change much, he was still calm, and he asked in a deep voice towards Li Hongmei in front of him.

"I performed the Abyss Sacrifice Method, but that idiot arranged the Sacrificial Pillar," Li Hongmei couldn't hide her disdain for the Corrupted Tongue, and said, "If you compare it directly with the arrangement, you can make mistakes, really..." He didn't Go on, look at Leo and say: "There is no need for us to continue talking nonsense, no matter what my original purpose is, now I have only one purpose, which is to get rid of that corrupt tongue Tokatni underground, because some I can't do anything to him for some reason, but I need to kill him to leave this ghost place, so I hope to cooperate with you, of course I won't let you do things for nothing, I can tell you who you are, help You make up part of the missing memory."

"Missing memory?" Perhaps it was closely related to himself, Leo's tone no longer seemed so almost absolutely calm, and there was a touch of emotion mixed in, and he said, "How do you know that I am missing part of my memory? We seem to be the first meet again."

"Wrong! This is not the first time we have met. We have met many times in the past so long. For a while, I even felt that my fate and yours were intertwined." Li Hongmei watched Leo said firmly: "You have to doubt, if you want to say who knows you best in this world, then it will definitely be ranked among the top three."

"The first three?" Leo's focus was a little different, and he asked just after the other party's voice fell, "Who are the other two?"

Li Hongmei replied with a smile: "The white deer and the throne."

Hearing these two names, Leo could no longer control the consistent expression on his face, and a look of surprise and astonishment emerged, allowing people to see through his thoughts at once.

If the other party just said the name White Deer, it would not cause such a big reaction in Leo, because the White Deer left many traces here. It is not uncommon for the other party to know the existence of the White Deer, and the ring in his hand is even more so. A very clear direction.

But what the other party said was not only the white deer, but also the throne. Although the other party did not clearly indicate what kind of throne he was talking about, Leo could still feel that the other party should know the existence of the stone throne, and also knew that the stone throne was in his mouth. body.

Li Hongmei saw that Leo's emotions seemed to be broken, so she showed a joyful smile, walked around Leo, and said, "You should be wondering whether the throne I mentioned is the same as what you thought of in your mind." Like the throne, right?"

Leo looked at the other party and didn't answer, but his behavior seemed to be a tacit consent.

Li Hongmei did not wait for Leo to give a clearer response, but asked and answered by herself: "Because I know one thing, no matter how you change your identity, the extraordinary power you mastered first can only be unique in that world." Power and psionic power, and as long as your psionic power is activated, the throne will be integrated with you, which will never change."

"What is the throne?" Leo finally couldn't help asking.

"Want to know?" Li Hongmei smiled and said, "As long as you help me get rid of Tokatni, the corrupt tongue, I will tell you everything I know about you, including the throne."

"Actually, you don't need to do anything, as long as you wait quietly, you can get the result you want, because our goal is the corrupt tongue." Leo frowned, puzzled: "But why did you stand up?" Come out and take the initiative to ask me to cooperate? This seems completely unnecessary."

"Because that idiot is stupid, but it doesn't mean that his strength is as bad as you think. After all, he is also the upper race of the abyss, not to mention that he has received a gift from the abyss," Li Hongmei said very seriously: " If you continue to underestimate that guy, I believe that in the end, not only will you not get the results you want, but you will also have to pay a painful price."
