The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 1791 Unexpected Defense Strength

Sylvia said at the beginning that the Valkyrie who assassinated her revealed a human form with wings before death, but now the Valkyrie that Leo sees, if it does not appear in the form of energy light, is indeed long. A humanoid with wings, but after removing that layer of camouflaged energy light, what you see is a humanoid form formed by intertwined, transparent insect-like energy creatures.

Although it seems that each energy worm that makes up Valkyrie's body is a separate individual, Leo discovered that the actual situation is completely different by invading the spiritual energy in Valkyrie's body. The energy worms that make up its appearance are only Valkyrie. It is just an organ in the body, but each organ has the same function and is controlled by the same consciousness.

At the moment when Leo caught Valkyrie, he could clearly feel that each energy worm that made up Valkyrie was transmitting the same spiritual energy. What is the content of this spiritual energy cannot be analyzed temporarily, but through From the subsequent reaction, it is not difficult to guess that this spiritual energy should be a mental signal to die together, just like when Sylvia directly injured him so badly in the Thresh tribe that he could not escape, it immediately chose to die together. Now it should He also wanted to die with Leo.

It's just that Leo had already thought of Valkyrie's possible reaction the moment he started, and immediately dispelled any concentrated energy flow on Valkyrie's body through spiritual energy, and did not give the Valkyrie in front of him any power. Chance to blew up.

After controlling the Valkyrie, Leo did not approach the holy tower, but retreated to the outer city wall on the same path, turned over and jumped off the city wall, came to the corner of the wall, and then found a relatively open place here , and began to analyze the mystery of the composition of the Valkyrie in his hand with various methods he knew.

Although the Valkyrie in front of him has the main characteristics of an energy life form, Leo does not think that this Valkyrie is really an energy life form, because this Valkyrie does not show any thinking characteristics in line with intelligent creatures , all it has is a programmed behavior, so it looks more like some kind of energy body weapon.

Because of the powerful power possessed by energy life forms, many cosmic civilizations have studied energy life forms, and through these researches, they have developed some energy body weapons, and they have exerted extraordinary power on certain special battlefields. effect.

The Earth Federation has also participated in similar research, but their related technologies did not start from scratch, but after spending a lot of money to purchase such research materials from an alien civilization, they conducted research on the existing basis , Even in order to support this research, the Earth Federation government has also allocated a huge amount of money equivalent to one tenth of the annual financial allocation, and invested it in this research.

But with the deepening of the research, the Earth Federal Government gradually discovered that this research project was a huge pit. It was already the limit to develop a defective product with their technical capabilities at the time. They wanted to develop an energy body weapon with real power that reached the standard. , also need to invest an astronomically huge amount of money, and it will take a long time for research. If all goes well, the finished product will be produced in the end, and according to their deduction, it is found that the energy body weapon manufactured with the existing technology to the limit will eventually The power is definitely far from the rumors they heard about the power of energy body weapons.

Huge investment can't be exchanged for corresponding results, no matter how stupid a person should know how to choose, so all the research on energy body weapons stopped, but the funds invested at that time were already extremely huge, and even once As a result, the funds for several extremely important government projects have been broken. For this reason, some government executives who promoted the project have resigned, and some people have even been imprisoned for corruption and other charges. As for whether they are really corrupt That is not important anymore, what the federal government needs now is just a scapegoat that can let the people vent.

Just because the research project of the energy body weapon caused such a big crisis to the Earth Federation Government, this incident was truthfully recorded in the history of the Federation Government, and it was a very detailed history. Also know a lot.

Although some confidential documents released later showed that there had been a breakthrough in the research of energy body weapons at that time, the degree of this breakthrough was still very small, and the two most critical problems had not been resolved. The first was the problem of stable manufacturing. The second is the issue of weapon power.

If we compare the energy body weapons recorded in the relevant materials of the Earth Federation with the Valkyrie that Leo is currently studying, it is not difficult to find that the current Valkyrie, which looks like an energy life form but is actually an energy body weapon, is already an extremely powerful weapon. It is a mature energy body weapon. It can not only form a relatively stable yield, but also has a good power. Although this power is still far from the power displayed by the energy body weapons in the rumors of the universe, it cannot be ignored. Not to mention that Valkyrie is already qualified as a lethal weapon.

Although Valkyrie's body structure is tightly wrapped in layers of camouflage and protection like an encryption program, for Leo, these protections and camouflage are useless, he only needs to continue to stimulate Valkyrie. The way of energy in the body stimulates the counter mechanism of the energy itself, so that it can actively open layers of camouflage and protection, and leak the energy core into Leo's spiritual energy network.

However, this approach is undoubtedly consuming the core energy of Valkyrie itself, so when Leo gradually grasped the mystery of Valkyrie's composition, the Valkyrie in his hand became weaker and weaker, and the energy that constituted its body The worms also gradually disappeared, and in the end, only a fist-sized energy cluster remained in Valkyrie, and this energy cluster is the core energy source of Valkyrie.

Leo can feel strong life energy in this energy source, but it is somewhat different from the life energy contained in the light that created Valkyrie. If the life energy contained in that light is the purest life energy , then the life energy in the energy cluster in Leo's hands is the life energy mixed with a lot of impurities.

In this case, Leo did not continue to analyze, because he felt that if he continued to analyze, it would be impossible to analyze more useful things. In addition, he did not try to use this energy group to dissipate it in some way. Condensed, but completely let go of the confinement of this energy group, and then stepped aside to see the next reaction of this energy group.

After the Valkyrie's core energy group was released, it did not trigger the self-explosion mechanism, but was suspended in the air, and rose into the sky after a while.

Leo originally thought that the energy cluster would fly in the direction of the holy tower, but the result was unexpected. After the energy cluster flew into the air, it flew out of the cracked plain, and disappeared in the air in the blink of an eye.

Just when Leo was wondering, he suddenly felt a burst of strong energy fluctuations from the sky, so he immediately activated his spiritual vision ability, and at the same time, he blessed the one created when he was studying the structure of Valkyrie just now. A method of detecting energy fluctuations, which allows him to see the invisible Valkyrie.

The moment his spiritual vision ability was activated, he immediately saw hundreds of Valkyries flying at an extremely fast speed in the sky, and the direction of their flight happened to be the core energy group of the Valkyrie The direction to fly away.

Although I don't know the specific situation, judging from the reactions of these Valkyries now, that energy group is probably a very important thing, so important that so many Valkyries must be touched to chase it back.

However, this is a good thing for Leo, at least without so many Valkyrie guards, it will make it easier for him to investigate the situation of the Holy Tower, although now that he understands the main composition of Valkyrie, he can already It is easy to deal with Valkyrie's attack, but it is also good to be able to avoid unnecessary troubles.

I saw that he unfolded his psionic wings again, flew to the city wall, and then walked towards the outer city wall of the holy tower along the same path.

However, after walking a certain distance, he stopped again with a look of embarrassment on his face, because at this moment he could already easily see those Valkyries standing like statues on the outer wall of the holy tower through the spiritual vision ability blessed with a special method Here, these Valkyries stood densely on some rocks protruding from the outer wall of the holy tower, and there were at least 100,000 of them by rough count.

Although the number of Valkyries far exceeded Leo's expectation, after thinking about it, it is not impossible to understand why there is such a huge number. After all, it has been accumulated for such a long time, and there are so many losses. This size is also very normal.

However, seeing a completely unexpected number of Valkyrie guarding the outer wall of the holy tower, Leo didn't know how to deal with it for a while. He could speculate that if he was really close to the holy tower, then these Valkyrie He will definitely launch the most violent attack on him. With his current strength, facing so many energy body weapons that will choose to die together at any time, it may be difficult to retreat in the end. As for forcibly breaking through Valkyrie's protection, enter It is even more impossible to get inside the holy tower.

However, this didn't make Leo give up exploring the holy tower. On the contrary, it made him more curious about what was going on inside the holy tower, so he quickly thought of a possible way to try it out, and this method was very simple , that is to disguise oneself as a Valkyrie.

Just now, when Leo was researching the Valkyrie, he captured a wave of Valkyrie's constituent energy, which was analyzed by the Stone Throne. When it is sent to the stone throne, a corresponding stone pillar is produced on the stone pillar square, and this stone pillar representing Valkyrie is very simple, it is a stone pillar that is too ordinary to be more ordinary. Since there is no stone pillar base, the surface of the stone pillar is also There are no patterns, and there are no statues on the top. It looks like a smooth stone pillar.

Through this stone pillar, Leo can easily imitate Valkyrie's energy, and this energy itself is not very powerful, the biggest effect is self-destruct.

Leo naturally looked down on this kind of energy, so he planned to find an opportunity to erase the stone pillar formed by this kind of energy from the stone pillar square. However, what he didn't expect was that now he needed this kind of despised energy to continue to the Holy Land. tower to explore.

After deciding to camouflage, Leo immediately created a Valkyrie energy flow through the stone pillar, let it fill his body, and then released it from the inside out.

At the moment when this energy was released, the energy immediately turned into light and enveloped Leo's body, which made him instantly become a light man, and his appearance, except for the pair of Valkyrie's wings, Everything else is pretty much the same as the Valkyrie.

After camouflaging, Leo carefully approached the outer wall of the holy tower, and at the same time, he also monitored the statue-like Valkyries standing on the outer wall of the holy tower, ready to deal with the attacks from these energy body weapons .

After walking carefully for a certain distance, Leo could feel that his camouflage had worked. None of the valkyries on the outer wall of the holy tower responded to his approach, even if he had already boarded the outer heights. The wall is less than a hundred meters away from the Valkyrie standing on the wall in front of him. Those Valkyries are still standing there like statues, completely treating him in disguise as a fellow.

However, Leo did not take it lightly, because he is still not completely sure whether there is any authentication mechanism in the holy tower. If there is such a mechanism, then his disguise may not be very useful.

However, at least for now, his disguise is still good, and what he needs to do now is to find the entrance of the holy tower.

Leo quickly walked around the outer wall of the holy tower, but he did not find any traces of the entrance on the outer wall of the holy tower. Although the surface of the holy tower has a large number of geometric concave and convex surfaces, these concave and convex surfaces and The body of the steel tower is all in one piece, and it is not a special movable device. On the contrary, it is more like it was deliberately left for those Valkyries to settle down when building this holy tower.

Since there was no trace of any entrance on the outer wall of the holy tower, Leo quickly adjusted his search direction and began to search in the circular space between the holy tower and the outer wall.

The reason why Leo is sure that there must be an entrance to the inside of the tower at the bottom of the tower is mainly because in the rumors about the tower, on a special day called the celebration of light, some of the city-state tribes in the central area were selected The people who have entered the holy tower will be qualified to meet the gods. They can ask the gods any questions, and the gods will answer them one by one. After those people come back, they will record their encounters in the holy tower in detail. Some of these records have been made public, and anyone who belongs to the city-state tribe in the central region can read them.

However, what is interesting is that no matter how carefully those who have read these records read them or even recited them repeatedly, after a period of time, the memory of the content of the records will become blurred, and they cannot remember the detailed content clearly. They can only remember A general idea, and among these general contents, there is the content that the holy tower opens the entrance and welcomes the seekers of knowledge.
