The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

During the conversation between Charles Langco and the black-robed wizard Reese, several other collaborators of the trip to the abandoned capital also arrived one after another.

These people who can be regarded as collaborators by Charles Rank are naturally not much weaker than Charles Rank. Each of them has a good reputation in the Wizarding Association. If it is known that these people have gathered together Planning something will definitely cause an uproar.

Leo was the last collaborator to come. Compared with other collaborators who knew each other well, the addition of Leo, an unfamiliar collaborator, made other collaborators feel puzzled.

However, they were only puzzled. Based on their understanding of Charles Rank, if Leo hadn't been approved by Charles Rank for his strength, Charles Rank would not have pulled him into this matter. , so they didn't have any idea of ​​probing, and acquiesced to the identity of Leo's collaborator.

Leo himself actually didn't want to come here to discuss with Charles Ranco about entering the abandoned capital. He knew very well that even in this discussion, Charles Ranco would mention some secret things about the great library of the abandoned city, but the real core The content of the other party will never be disclosed. So he felt that instead of listening to some useless information here, it would be better to stay in the hut and listen to Peter Alcott's knowledge from different worlds.

It was only after he arrived that Leo realized that there was nothing wrong with this trip, because when he saw the black-robed wizard Riise, he immediately recognized Riise's appearance and the man who had entered and exited No. 9 Golden Oak Street several times. People are exactly the same.

This identical judgment is not due to any vague feeling, but the result obtained by comparing the facial data of Leo's sub-brain system. The three hundred and ninety-seven comparison nodes on the faces of the two people were exactly the same, there was no difference at all, and he was almost sure that the black-robed wizard Riser and the family member who died in Faerun should be the same person.

I just don't know why a person who should have died has become a powerful wizard in this dream world, and it seems that his status is still very high.

Just when Leo was surprised by the appearance of the black-robed wizard Riise, he also found that the black-robed wizard Riise also showed a little surprised expression after seeing him for some reason unknown to him.

Although the surprised expressions on both faces were concealed, they were still noticed by other attentive people. They all subconsciously thought that the two should know each other.

"You two know each other?" Seeing this situation, Charles Ranko frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice.

"I've seen it from a distance." Naturally, it was impossible for Leo to answer truthfully, so he said vaguely.

"Me too, I have seen His Excellency Leo from afar." The black-robed wizard Riise also couldn't respond truthfully for some reason, so he used the same words as Leo to prevaricate.

Although everyone present knew that Leo and the black-robed wizard Riise were not telling the truth, they thought that even if they knew each other, it would not have any impact on the whole plan and their income, so they didn't ask any more questions. Only Charles ·Lanke re-examined the sex and looked at the two.

Not long ago, Charles Ranco recognized Leo's identity as a disciple of a hermit wizard, and his doubts were all gone, but now he couldn't help but have new doubts, suspecting that Leo was not a disciple of a hermit wizard at all. , possibly a hidden cultist wizard.

I don't know when, some wizards in the Wizards Association began to become followers of the Church of the Gods in Lake Town. Although these wizards did not shake the foundation of the Wizards Association, they were already regarded as heretics by the Wizards Association.

The Wizards Association may not directly expel those wizards and exile them to the foggy area because of this belief, but in the dark, both witchcraft resources and practice paths will strictly restrict these wizards.

It is also for this reason that even if many wizards start to believe in the gods of the church, they will hide themselves, and it can be said that there are very few wizards who have such high-profile and open beliefs like the black-robed wizard Riser.

This also reminded Charles Ronco of a rumor that after the black-robed wizard Reese made his faith public, his practice progress did not stagnate like other religious wizards with limited resources, but continued to improve, and it is still Strong contender for Lord of the Fourth Tower. Therefore, some people suspect that there is a hidden group of religious wizards who are constantly providing practice resources and new advanced witchcraft to the black-robed wizard Riise, so that when he ascends to a high position, he can provide a refuge for the religious wizards. Place.

In the past, Charles Ronco did not believe in such claims at all, because he knew very well the preciousness of cultivation resources and the scarcity of advanced witchcraft, and even the most selfless person could not make such great contributions over the years. But today, when he saw the abnormal expressions of Leo and Riise after they met, he couldn't help but start to believe this statement.

It's just that Charles Ranko just took this matter to heart, and didn't intend to investigate it at this time. The most important thing for him now is the matter of abolishing the capital.

"This is some information about the big library." After Leo sat down, Charles Ronco took out some documents from the suitcase, handed them to the surrounding people, and said: "These information is not complete, just It can be used as a reference, and you all know that the situation in the big library is chaotic and disorderly, so in the end, you still need to look at the situation yourself and adapt accordingly."

Leo took the document and flipped through it. Although there were more than 50 pages in the document, with the help of the sub-brain system, he read it very quickly. Others read less than three pages. All the data are recorded in the vice brain database.

When the others saw that Leo finished reading the information so quickly, they felt thoughtful. They didn't think that Leo had really memorized the contents of the information, but that Leo must have entered the big library before, so these The information is of little use to him.

Leo didn't care that his abnormal behavior would attract attention, because according to his observation, the people around him were all aloof and arrogant. The next trip to the big library.

After writing down all the information, Leo did not sit in a chair in a daze, nor did he intend to talk to Charles Ronco, but pretended to close his eyes and let his consciousness enter the sub-brain system. The data organized by the database.

Although the information about the large library was also recorded in the relevant materials of the abandoned capital that Wizmir gave him before, most of those materials only introduced the external environment of the large library, and did not involve its internal actual situation.

Although the information that Charles Ranco brought out was incomplete, it gave Leo a more detailed understanding of what was inside the big library.

Through this information, Leo found that he had misunderstood the big library before. In fact, the big library and the library in his mind were completely different. Each floor of the large library is a separate world. This world may be a city that destroys civilization, or it may be a huge land. All in all, it is completely different from a library in the conventional sense.

The reason why the Wizarding Association named this place the Great Library is entirely because the various books that can be found here far exceed other places in the abandoned capital.

Moreover, a very important point was mentioned in the materials, that is, the disorder of space.

In the big library or most other places in the abandoned city, the sense of distance is the biggest illusion. The distant buildings that you can only see from a distance at one moment may appear in your sight the next moment after you turn around an obstacle blocking your sight. In front of him, so there is no map or other tools here.

Similarly, the floors of the big library are also disorderly. It is not like ordinary high-rise buildings. After going up the first floor, there is the second floor. Thirty floors, it is more likely that it was sent directly to the outside of the big library.

Although the environment inside the big library is also dangerous, it is much better than other places in the abandoned capital. The real danger in the big library is the hospitable aborigines.

According to the official analysis of the Wizarding Association in the data, these aborigines should have originated from those fallen civilizations. They fell into the abandoned capital along with their own civilization. monsters in between.

These monsters are strong and weak. Weak monsters should be transformed by ordinary people, and powerful monsters must also be strong during their lifetime. For example, the crystal old man must have been a powerful wizard above the chief wizard before his death.

These monsters are all immortal in the abandoned city. Even if you kill them this time, they will be resurrected next time and continue to roam around in every corner of the abandoned city.

But there is also a special type of these monsters mentioned in the data. This kind of monster still has some wisdom, and as long as they don't actively attack them, they will not attack others, and more importantly, these monsters Entrants can be given some cryptic information about the large library they are in.

These secret information may be the collection location of a certain treasure, or it may be knowledge about a fallen civilization. If you are lucky, you can even learn some special abilities directly from these intelligent monsters.

"I have a way to send us to the thirteenth floor of the big library." At this time, other people also read the materials in their hands one after another, and Charles Langco continued to talk, saying: "The thirteenth floor is the ruins of Zait, It is also the famous Devil's Library, although it is very dangerous, there is an entrance that always points to the forty-third floor."

"You're talking about the big tree hole!" Jesse, a spiritual wizard who knew something about the big library, confirmed.

Charles Ranko nodded and said, "Yes, it's the big tree hole."

"I remember that the location of the big tree hole is not fixed. Even if we have entered the thirteenth floor, how can we find the big tree hole?" The spiritual wizard Jesse obviously came prepared and asked a key question directly.

"Look for the black sun." Charles Ranko said, "As long as you walk in the direction of the black sun, you will be able to reach the big tree hole."

The spiritual wizard Jesse expressed doubts: "Is there any basis for your method? Don't be like a farce like the secret realm of the royal city."

Leo didn't know what the farce in the secret realm of the royal city that the spiritual wizard Jesse was talking about was, but judging from the expressions of other people around him, it was definitely not a good thing.

Charles Ronco had already expected that someone would question his method, so he did not show any anger or impatience, but said calmly: "I bought this news from the recorder at the expense of three ashes flowers." of."

Hearing this, all the doubts in the hearts of the people present dissipated, and they began to discuss how to deal with the hospitable monsters in the big library.

Leo didn't interrupt, he was listening all the time, but the content of everyone's discussion was completely recorded in the database by him, and the sub-brain system reorganized and archived it.

After discussing in this way for about two hours, the content of the discussion was finished. After Charles Langco informed everyone of the location and time of the entrance of the abandoned city, the people in the room got up and left.

After Leo walked out of the room, the black-robed wizard Riser quickly rushed up from behind, walked side by side with Leo, and said in a low voice: "You Chaotic Society are very good at acting, and you actually pulled the executioner out to accompany you to perform this A scene that allows you to get involved in Charles Ranko's plan, are you also interested in the crystal old man's magic book?"

When he heard the questioning words from the black-robed wizard Rise, Leo was stunned, but he didn't show it on his face. At the same time, the sub-brain system quickly analyzed the meaning of Riise's words. Soon, he understood why the black-robed wizard suddenly and inexplicably caught up and said these words?

Leo realized that the power of nightmare that he didn't fully control was detected by the black-robed wizard Reese, and he mistakenly thought that Leo was a member of the Chaos Society, and the confrontation with the executioner was just a show, so in the room Sometimes, when the other party saw him, he would show an abnormal expression that misunderstood Charles Ronco.

Also through the hidden meaning in this sentence, Leo also learned two things. One thing is that the relationship between the black-robed wizard Reese and the Chaos Society is unusual, and the second thing is that the Chaos Society will definitely develop the power of nightmare. It has reached the level of popularity, otherwise, the black-robed wizard Riise would not be able to see the power of nightmare in himself so easily.

In addition, this also made Leo realize that if he couldn't fully control the power of nightmare on his body and restrain the energy fluctuations emitted by all the power of nightmare, then he might have problems when he went to the headquarters of the Wizards Association in Silvermoon City in the future.

"When did you become interested in our affairs?" After learning about the situation, Leo simply chose to follow suit and asked vaguely.

Riise, the black-robed wizard, didn't doubt Leo's identity at all. After all, there are only a handful of Chaos Cultists like Leo who possess such powerful and pure nightmare power. He even thinks that Leo is one of the main forces hidden by Chaos one.

So he wasn't worried that he would expose some deep secrets, and said directly: "I just think that you Chaos Society has been doing too much in Lake Town recently. Don't forget the agreement between you and our Eye of Reality."

Leo didn't say anything, just smiled pretending to be deep, and walked into the internal elevator of the flower shop. Riise, the black-robed wizard, did not follow, but stood outside the elevator and watched Leo sink slowly, with a little pensive look on his face, before turning around and walking towards his room in the flower shop after a while.
