The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

In fact, after meeting Peter Alcott in the dream world, Leo already had a certain understanding of the turbulent flow of time, so now even if he speculates that the psychic suppressor and the stone tower in front of him are hundreds of years old The items produced later were sent to install hundreds of years ago through the turbulent flow of time, so he would not be too surprised or confused. The biggest question in his mind now is how did the Weiya people do it? Is this time turbulence controllable or random?

"It can't be controllable, if it is really controllable, then the Via people are terrible!" Leo was silent for a moment, and said to himself while putting the original data panel back into the suppressor .

Although the Weiya people are one of the oldest civilized races in the universe, the technology and spiritual power of the Weiya people are not the strongest. Even because of their own wandering customs, the Weiya people have lost the cornerstone of ethnic evolution, and they can get the highest in the universe. The respect of the parliament and the presence of observers is mainly because of their ancient civilization.

If the Weiya people really mastered the controllable time turbulence and can send people to any designated time point through the subspace time turbulence, then not to mention whether the time paradox of the butterfly effect is true, it is just that they pass Traveling through the future and obtaining the powerful technology of the future is enough to make the Via people the most powerful civilization in the universe.

But in fact, before Leo came to the world of Velen, the Via people were still the wandering civilization.

However, if the turbulence of time is uncontrollable, then how could this stone tower and the psychic suppressor land on this island at the exact time, and it happened to be obtained by the Via people who knew how to install the suppressor, and was installed here.

Leo felt more and more confusion in his mind, the Via people, the Guha giant, the mystery of the island itself, the controllable mutation of the Yam people, the obsidian parasite, and the discoveries that were constantly harvested. Bringing more questions, he couldn't help but have the idea that he should stop and stop exploring.

However, this kind of thought didn't bother him for too long, and soon he returned to normal, temporarily put aside those distracting thoughts and things he didn't understand, and then turned around and walked towards the last fifth floor.

The four-story tower below brought Leo a lot of information and clues, allowing him to discover a lot of secrets about this world and the cosmic race of the Via people, which also made him look forward to the last floor even more.

However, when he walked up to the last floor of the stone tower, he was rather disappointed by the scene inside the tower.

I saw that there was nothing in this floor of the tower. Looking around, it was empty, and the walls and ground were as smooth as a mirror. There were no traces of objects placed there, nor any secret patterns or characters.

It's just that, apart from being disappointed, he was also a little surprised, because although there were no useful items placed in this floor of the tower, he felt that he himself was a strange item on this floor, because he found that he was in this floor. When he stepped into the tower, the invisible power that suppressed his psionic energy disappeared, and he was able to perform various witchcraft again.

Feeling that the suppression energy generated by the psionic suppressor was isolated by the floor and walls of the tower, or more correctly neutralized, Leo couldn't help but wonder what the stone of the tower was made of. , why do you want to do this.

Leo walked into the tower, checked the surroundings carefully, and scraped some stone powder from the wall, put it in his hands to examine it carefully, but found that the stone here was no different from the stone of the tower below, and there was no difference. That is to say, the ability of this tower to neutralize spiritual energy does not depend on the material of the tower itself, but another mystery.

Afterwards, Leo carefully checked the situation of the tower on this floor. After checking several times, he finally found something wrong. He found that the spiritual energy in his body had indeed recovered, but other powers But it disappeared inexplicably, and I couldn't feel the existence of those powers from my body.

After discovering this abnormal situation, Leo immediately retreated to the entrance of the spiral staircase. When he stepped on the downward staircase, the spiritual energy was suppressed again, and the other powers that had disappeared reappeared.

After repeated attempts, Leo confirmed that there is a special space in the tower on the top floor. In this space, the purest spiritual energy is everything, and all other powers, even the derivative power of spiritual energy, will be suppressed. This space is completely exclusive.

This strange phenomenon quickly made Leo think of a situation, so he took off the ring used to control the spiritual energy in his body, and used his spiritual vision skill to scan the room with all his strength.

I saw that under the observation of his spiritual vision, there was nothing abnormal in the surrounding space. The only strange thing was that there seemed to be something wrong with his eyes. There were always some flashes of light flashing in front of his eyes. Can't even catch it.

Ordinary people may regard this kind of flash as an illusion, but Leo doesn't think so. With his current strength as a ninth-level psyker, unless it is an Omega-level high-level creature who makes it himself, otherwise, it will be difficult for his The senses are such an obvious illusion.

Leo thought for a while, concentrated his mind, and continued to stimulate the spirit vision, and let the brain run rapidly, quickly catching the flash of light in front of the spirit vision.

After about four or five minutes, Leo felt that his spiritual vision seemed to become easier to control, and his spiritual vision seemed to have fallen into a strange state. In this state, the flow of time seemed to be slowing down, just like Like the legendary bullet time.

It's a pity that this state didn't last for too long. About 30 seconds later, his eyes began to feel dry and painful, which made him have to stop using his spiritual vision, stop concentrating, and close his eyes slightly. Rested in place for a while.

After his eyes returned to normal, Leo began to recall the memory of capturing the flash. Without the help of the sub-brain, it was very difficult to sort out useful things from these memory images. He spent a lot of time analyzing and comparing, about It took more than an hour before he sorted out the contents of his memory.

After carefully reading through the materials composed of these memory fragments, Leo was both surprised and felt that it was reasonable. After all, he had already expected it when he caught the flash.

Subspace wormholes, subspace rifts and other names all describe a phenomenon. The official name of this phenomenon is the field of natural spiritual energy, which is the current situation on the top floor of the stone tower where Leo is.

Under normal circumstances, the psychic field refers to a psychic field created by a psyker with his own psychic energy. This ability can only be used by a psychic above level seven, and it is also a big killer on the battlefield. Often a person who can create a psychic Psykers in the field of power can turn the tide of battle at critical times.

And so far, the largest psychic field can include a small galaxy the size of three solar systems after it is opened, and this kind of psychic is an existence that cannot be rated, and most ordinary people generally call it Star-level, galaxy-level or cosmic-level and so on.

However, none of these titles has been approved by the Supreme Council of the universe. Omega-level is the general term for this type of psychic. Of course, the languages ​​of each civilization are different, and the titles are also different, but the content is the same.

Compared with the fact that a psychic can create his own psychic field after reaching level seven, the natural psychic field is rare. Now the Supreme Council of the universe has confirmed that the natural psychic field is only seventy-four in the known universe composed of more than 7,000 galaxies under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Council.

There has never been a public opinion on why the field of natural psionic energy was formed. Even the highest scientific research institution in the universe only understands some observable phenomena in the field of natural psionic energy.

However, because among the various phenomena observed, there is a phenomenon that is very unique, and this phenomenon occurs in all natural spiritual energy fields, which makes this phenomenon a symbol of the natural spiritual energy field, and this phenomenon is the natural Light and shadow shards of the warp appear in the psionic realm.

Just now, the flashes that Leo saw were the light and shadow fragments of the subspace. The reason why he was so sure was that he saw a space battleship sailing in the subspace from the sorted fragment images, and penetrated the battleship itself. , saw the navigator who guided the spirit into the subspace.

Leo even discovered through sorting out his memory that at the moment when the flash with the navigator appeared, he had an inexplicable connection with the spirit of the navigator, and obtained some knowledge belonging to the navigator. Now this knowledge has been sorted out and become part of him.

And this kind of passive spiritual connection is corresponding. The other party may have obtained some knowledge from him, but in order to avoid spiritual pollution, the navigator generally seals up any knowledge obtained through the spiritual connection. After leaving the subspace, he will Purge this part of memory.

Navigators are the most special kind of existence among psykers. They cannot be divided by psychic levels. Their only use is to navigate spaceships entering the subspace, because only they can project their spirits into the subspace. Injured, this ability allows them to discern the correct path within the Warp and find the correct exit.

The first natural psychic field was discovered by the navigator. When he guided the spaceship to sail, he discovered a subspace wormhole, and through spiritual guidance, he penetrated the wormhole and entered the normal universe. , After completing the navigation task, the matter was reported to the Navigator Association, and finally the special existence of the natural psionic field appeared in the eyes of all civilizations in the universe.

There is just one very strange thing. The phenomenon of subspace wormholes can only be discovered after the navigator enters the subspace. In the normal universe, even Omega-level psykers cannot discover its existence, so we can only The connection between the natural psionic field and the subspace is deduced through which subspace light and shadow fragments.

The reason why various civilizations in the universe attach so much importance to the field of natural psychic energy is mainly because the psychic energy in the field of natural psychic energy is the most primitive psychic energy in the universe. Psykers of any race can get some help from such an environment. Even Omega-level advanced creatures can also benefit from it.

However, while gaining benefits, there are relative risks. Because of the existence of the subspace wormhole, some unknown subspace creatures in the subspace can enter the normal space through the wormhole.

There has been no substantive evidence of the existence of such unknown warp creatures, but any psyker who has entered the warp can feel that these warp psykers will walk around the spaceship, and except for Except for the navigator, any other psykers, including Omega-level psykers, who have spiritual contact with these subspace psychic creatures will be mentally polluted to varying degrees.

People with mild mental pollution symptoms will only feel tired for a long time, and even some psionic levels will regress, while those with severe mental pollution will become the psionic puppets of subspace psionic creatures in the normal universe. All kinds of incredible things happen, and the final result is self-evident.

Therefore, after the natural psionic field is discovered, the Supreme Council will send two navigators and several psionic users of at least level seven or above to station there to prevent subspace psionic creatures from entering the normal universe from subspace wormholes.

There are not many materials in Leo's mind about subspace wormholes, natural spiritual energy fields, etc. Psykers are very dangerous.

Thinking of this, Leo immediately turned around, ready to go downstairs, away from the scope of the natural spiritual energy field.

But when he lifted his foot and was about to step on the steps of the spiral staircase, he suddenly felt an unknown existence staring at him behind him, and at the same time, there seemed to be an invisible force on the stairs under his feet. No matter how hard he tried to lift his feet, he still couldn't land on the steps.

Leo did not open the spiritual net to check the surrounding situation as usual, nor did he release any spiritual skills, even the spiritual vision skills were stopped by him, and he also put on the ring to help him control spiritual power, Containing all the spiritual energy on his body, he turned around and looked behind him.

Like the rest of the tower, there is nothing behind him, but this emptiness is just an appearance. In fact, Leo feels that there is an invisible object floating in front of him, looking at him. .

Although his strong curiosity made him want to activate his spiritual vision skill to check the situation in front of him, his reason told him not to do anything.

In this way, this feeling of staring at each other lasted for more than ten minutes, and then suddenly disappeared.

And just when Leo thought that the matter was over, a force that felt cold even to the soul plunged into his body in an instant, and then quickly instilled unknown power into his body. This feeling of attention reappeared, but this time it was no longer attention, but with this unknown force, it penetrated into his body and rushed towards his spirit.
