The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Although after coming out of the alpine abyss, there is an endless alpine snowfield, but compared to the deep and steep abyss, the snowfield with many pine needle plants in front of me is obviously more comfortable and more pleasant. Take it easy.

After walking out of the high mountain and abyss, although it was still a few hours before dark, the team did not go out of the mountain immediately. Instead, led by Barak, who was familiar with the terrain, they found a mountain col that could shelter from the wind and was suitable for camping. Camp for one night and continue on tomorrow.

"Aren't you going to do it now?" Standing on the edge of the snow hill on one side of the col, Leo couldn't help asking Su beside him as he looked at the fleeing team camping below.

"Not yet." Su said very calmly.

Leo didn't ask for more details, he turned his head to look at the abyss that looked like a gate of heaven, and said, "That Barack is probably not an ordinary person."

Su Wenyan also turned his head to look at the exit, nodded, and said: "He may be a family member who has not stimulated blood but has stimulated ability, but I don't know whose family member it is."

The reason why Leo and Su said such words was because they realized that the exit of the abyss they just walked through was not simple. The exit was so huge and so obvious that even standing far away, they could see where the exit was. The mountain peak seemed to be split open, forming a straight crack in the middle.

It stands to reason that anyone who sees this magical scenery should be curious, and will involuntarily want to go forward to find out. In this way, the location of this abyss will definitely be spread and known by others, and this can be crossed The secret passage in the Dibia Mountains will naturally become known to everyone.

But in fact, no one except Barak knew about this secret path before Barak led everyone through it today, and the reason for this is entirely due to the influence of the remains of the Eagle God in the abyss.

At the moment when they walked out of the abyss exit just now, the two people who escaped from the suppression of the eagle god's power felt the imprisoned power recover instantly, and at the same time, they also found an invisible force penetrating their hearts, their brains And in their souls, let them consciously or unintentionally forget the experience they just walked through the abyss, and actively ignore such an obvious entrance to the abyss.

Both Leo, who possessed the will of a ninth-level psyker, and Su, who possessed the divinity of the God of Darkness, could resist this kind of invisible influence on the mind and soul, but for ordinary people, they obviously couldn't resist the effect of this kind of power. Under the influence of power, they will gradually forget the location of this secret path, and even forget that such a secret path exists. This should be the main reason why there is no such secret path in the outside world.

However, an ordinary person like Barak was able to discover this secret passage and remember the location of the secret passage without being affected by the power here. More importantly, Barak has traveled through this secret passage of the abyss many times without ever encountering it. What danger? It can be seen that Barak is not as ordinary as he appears on the surface.

It's just that even though Barak has an astonishing secret, Leo and Su are just curious, and have no plans to take any further actions.

"He should be able to do it tonight." Su said suddenly.

"What do I need to do?" Leo asked calmly.

Su looked at Leo and said, "It's the same as what the Web Weaver asked you to do, you only need to clean up all the Black Forest family members and ancient beasts that are close to the camp, and as for the war between me and him, outsiders cannot intervene. "

"No problem." Leo responded.

Seeing Leo's calm and indifferent appearance, Su frowned, and immediately reminded: "If you have such a disapproving attitude, you may die tonight, because the Black Forest family members and ancient beasts that will appear tonight will It is far more than the number you have seen before, and there are some family members with real power among them, I don't want to fail because of you."

Leo didn't become nervous because of Su's reminder, he still said calmly: "Don't worry, I know exactly what I should do."

Although Su is still very worried about Leo's mentality, she can't say anything more. Fortunately, she still has some reliable backups. Even if there are no problems on Leo's side, relying on these backups is enough for her to complete her goal. .

So Su didn't further discuss the cooperation details with Leo, and walked directly into the shadow of a pine needle forest, disappearing.

Seeing that Su left, Leo didn't stay idle either. After observing the surrounding terrain, he quickly moved towards one of the key terrains.

Although in Leo's eyes, as long as the incoming Black Forest family members and monsters' spiritual power level does not exceed him, they will not bring him any danger, but he will not take it lightly. Come watch tonight's fight.

Through his rich experience in positional warfare, Leo quickly found a dozen key points of attack in the area around the camp of the fleeing team. Basically, as long as someone tries to attack the camp, they must pass through these ten key points, so He decided to lay a large number of traps in these areas.

The traps Leo set up were not the kind of instant kill attack traps, but the riot runes and magic circles he learned from the dream world, and in order to avoid accidentally injuring those patrolling hunters, he slightly modified the conditions for launching the magic traps After a while, it is no longer triggered by touching, but needs to sense the spiritual response at close range.

In addition to magic traps, Leo also arranged some relatively primitive hunting traps and alarm traps in other secondary areas, so that when the enemy sneaked in from this direction, he could find it immediately.

After setting up the trap, the sky gradually darkened. Although it was still early, the sun was blocked by the mountains, making the area around the refugee camp enter the night ahead of schedule.

Leo carefully checked the traps he had set up before to make sure there were no mistakes, and then he began to organize the combat items he needed. After drinking two bottles of potions that restore spiritual energy, he found a trap that could see the whole area. The hills of the zone await the start of the battle.

The first battle was much earlier than Leo had expected. Just as it was getting dark and the camp started to light the bonfire, the trap that Leo had set up in a secondary area was triggered, and not one or two started, but two More than a dozen hunting traps were triggered in succession.

In order to cope with the ensuing battle, Leo did not use witchcraft, but ran directly towards the area where the trap was triggered, and soon he came to the secondary area where the trap was triggered.

However, now there are no enemies here for him to deal with, because the intruders who triggered the trap have all died under the sharp wooden thorns of the trap mechanism, and they were held up by these wooden thorns, maintaining their vitality at the moment before they died. posture and expression.

Leo didn't know whether these intruders belonged to the family or belonged to monsters, because they were all big rats walking upright, and they were all wearing wallets and holding various cold weapons in their hands. It looks like an intelligent race different from humans.

"This is the Ratman, a foreign race that should have been extinct long ago." At this moment, a black shadow of Su suddenly appeared beside Leo. She looked at the upright rats and said.

"This is the Rat Man?" Leo quickly thought of the Rat Man mentioned in some fairy tales, because the mention of the Rat Man in those stories was just a passing mention, and it was a fairy tale, so he didn't think of this alien race.

Su looked at these dead ratmen, and asked Leo, "Can you handle it?"

"No problem." Leo responded briefly, and ignored Su. Instead, he walked to the rat man's corpse, dug out the rat man's tail and eyeballs, and put away the weapons on the rat man's body. Pick it up and find out what you can use.

At this time, the shadow created by Su with his innate ability also dissipated, and when it was about to completely dissipate, Leo suddenly turned around, raised his hand towards the place where Su was before, and quickly drew a magic rune. The dark spiritual energy remaining in the air instantly gathered in his hands, wrapped up by the shadow power created by his blood, and quickly analyzed the mystery of the power within.

"Shadow Clone." It was as if the shadow power produced by the blood possessed Su's innate ability. After analyzing Su's dark spiritual power, a new one quickly appeared in Leo's mind. of shadow witchcraft. ·

"It's coming again!" Leo hadn't had time to familiarize himself with the new shadow witchcraft he learned from Su, and the trap he set up was set off again, but this time it was triggered by a riot rune trap.

"Roar!" Almost at the same time Leo felt the trap was triggered, a violent roar came from the direction of the trap, and then he saw the trees in that direction collapse one by one, and the accumulation on the ground The snow also flew up due to the impact of some forces, forming a snowy fog all over the sky.

Not to mention Leo, even the people in the refugee camp noticed such a big commotion. It was obvious that the ordinary people in the camp were frightened by such a big commotion, panic spread in the camp, and many people gathered in the camp. At the entrance of the camp, it seems that they want to go out to check the situation.

However, Barak immediately stopped the actions of these people. Not only did he not let these people leave the camp, he didn't even send out the hunters. Instead, he asked everyone to strengthen the guardrails around the camp, loosen the tents that had been fixed, and move them away. Check the position so that all the tents can take care of each other. After that, he asked the hunters to find existing materials and set up a large number of traps, which can play a defensive role when someone attacks the camp.

However, anyone who is a little smarter knows that if the unknown thing that can make such a big noise really comes to attack the camp, it is impossible to resist it with the current defense facilities in the camp. Just comfort.

However, the movement that made the camp tremble quickly ended, and the flying snowflakes fell to the ground again.

Leo didn't go there directly to check the situation, but stood where he was, performing the witchcraft shadow clone he had just obtained.

I saw that at the moment when Leo finished casting the spell, the shadow on the ground beside him suddenly swelled up like a bubble, and then a vague shadow human nature struggled to arch up from the ground, and soon Condensed a human form.

Then, driven by Leo's mind, the shadow clone instantly disappeared from the original place and moved to the distant area where the big movement happened just now, and Leo and the shadow clone completely shared vision and hearing, and the already blurry scene immediately disappeared. The messy scene can be seen in the eyes.

After a rough count, there were more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground. Leo could only identify three families and one monster. The three families were Dustin Hound, Light Cocoon, and Son of the Hill. The monster is the human scorpion.

Neither the family members nor monsters are recorded in the books of the world of Velen. The reason why Leo knows them is because there are a lot of information about the family members and monsters in the Black Forest in the information fragments of the Web Weaver.

It's a pity that this information is not detailed, it just tells Leo the value of some organs of these family members and monsters. As for the formation and origin of these family members, these fragments of information do not mention, and the only thing Leo can be sure about is that the children of the hill and Ma The king of the hill believed by the Kingdom of Reiss has nothing to do with it, it's just that the name sounds like a connection.

Leo stepped forward to quickly harvest valuable things from these corpses, and also checked the signs of destruction around them and the scars on the corpses, and he was basically able to guess what happened not long ago.

Apparently, the Son of the Hill uttered a roar just now. Judging from the situation at the scene, the Son of the Hill should have accidentally stepped on the riot rune trap that Leo had set up in advance, and was hit by the riot rune on his body. The most violent spirit of riot in the hearts of the children of the hill. The Son of the Hill, who lost his mind, immediately attacked all movable objects around him. In the end, he killed many family members and monsters in the Black Forest, and was also besieged and killed by the surviving family members and monsters. He and the monster seemed to be worried that there were other traps in the forest, so they avoided them far away, not daring to get close.

While harvesting valuable things from these family members and monsters, Leo also used the spirit net to check the surrounding situation, and soon found several monsters that looked like giant arthropods hiding in the snow, but Judging from the footprints in the snow beside them, it is obvious that they are not the only survivors, but the other survivors have obviously entered the state between reality and reality.

Now that the enemy has been discovered, Leo naturally has no intention of letting it go. He controls the shadow clone to merge directly into the dark shadow, and quickly moves towards the hiding monsters. Before they realize that the enemy is approaching At that time, several shadow daggers made with the power of shadows were directly inserted into the vital parts of these monsters.

These arthropod-like monsters died without any resistance under the stabbing of the shadow dagger, and their corpses were not preserved as well as the corpses seen before, but collapsed and disappeared automatically, and finally only A few pieces of what should be high-energy matter were dropped and fell into the snow.
