The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Sylvia is the granddaughter of William Belmont." When Leon Belmont was still trying to figure out who that Belmont named Sylvia was, Leo directly revealed the answer.

However, Leon Belmont, who heard the answer, was even more confused than before. He froze for a while before saying, "Are you crazy? William is only in his twenties, not to mention whether he will give up his vow to marry a wife." To have a child, even if he does marry a wife and have a child, you can only know William's daughter, how could it be the granddaughter?"

"Crazy? Maybe!" Leo smiled and continued: "If I tell you where you came from, you have been dead for decades, do you think I am crazy?"

This time, Leon Belmont didn't show that kind of exaggerated surprise. Instead, he stared at Leo thoughtfully, trying to see something from his face.

After a while, he said very seriously: "What you said is true?"

"You believe it?" Leo was also a little surprised that Leon Belmont accepted what he said so quickly.

"Do you believe I'm dead? Of course not." Leon Belmont pulled his mustache and said, "I used to have doubts about some things, but I just couldn't find a clue. Your words gave me a lot Inspiration, I think we should be Vinylon in different time periods, so the Villenn William I was with was just a stupid boy, and the Villennian you are with has married a wife and had children, and has a son, and the son also has a granddaughter."

If it is a scientist from the Earth Federation, even if it is not a scientist, but just an ordinary science enthusiast, Leo will not be surprised or surprised when he says what Leon Belmont is saying now, after all, in that technologically prosperous universe Among them, concepts such as multidimensional universes and time travel have long been popular among ordinary people, and it is not worth making a fuss at all.

But now the person who is speaking these words is a person who was just in the age of steam budding decades ago, and this person is not a scientist, he is just a libertine, but this libertine speaks the most superficial time Line theory, which made him feel a little incredible.

Leo couldn't help being curious, and asked Leon Belmont: "Do you know the meaning of what you just said? It is the world of Velen in different time periods?"

"Of course I know, isn't it time theory!" Leon Belmont shrugged, then walked to a corner bookcase, took out a manuscript from it, threw it to Leo and said, "I met an old man before. He told me that he came from a Velen world where humans could fly to the stars, and he said a lot of weird things. Later, he failed to complete the final fusion of the holy insects, was assimilated by the holy insects, and turned into a monster .Before he became a monster, he gave me his book, and I read it when I had nothing to do. Although I couldn't understand most of the content, some stories were easy to understand."

Leo opened the manuscript that he had received, flipped through it, and finished reading it quickly.

There is not much content in the manuscript, and it involves a wide range of knowledge, but the depth of knowledge is very shallow, which is only equivalent to the level of elementary school students of the Earth Federation. Of course, this is only relative to the civilization of the Earth Federation that has entered the cosmic age, but if it is placed in the world of Velen, then the content recorded in this manuscript is enough to be called the truth of the world. Who has mastered it? Whoever has the knowledge, masters the future.

Most of these contents are just theoretical knowledge, which only involves a wide range, from conjectures about the birth of the universe, to the origin of species, to the deconstruction of gods, etc. In short, any item Knowledge in the world of Velen is enough to make those who have this knowledge become the common enemy of various god churches and those hidden underground churches of evil gods.

Leo closed the book in his hand, frowned and thought for a moment.

Just like what Leon Belmont said before, he had already faintly felt that this island might really be connected to a world of a different timeline. The reason why he thought so was not just because of the manuscript in his hand, but more The reason is that the timeline statement also agrees with his previous guess about the time when the Weiya people came to this island.

"Can you understand this notebook?" Leo didn't hide his behavior and expression. Leon Belmont, who is very good at observing words and expressions, easily saw something, and said with a little surprise: "Could it be that dozens of With such a big change in Vinylon after the next year, can you even understand this kind of nagging books?"

Leo said casually: "Of course it is impossible. In fact, the timeline of the Vinylon I came to is similar to the Vinylon you are in, and there is not much change."

"It's still such a boring world, it's really too pitiful!" Leon Belmont said with a look of regret.

"You think it's a boring world?" Leo said, looking at Leon Belmont with interest.

Leon Belmont asked, "Isn't it?"

Leo asked in a deep voice: "Could a world full of wizards, gods and all kinds of mysterious powers be boring?"

"Wizards, gods?" Leon Belmont stared at Leo with wide eyes, and couldn't help laughing: "You don't think that all these abnormal phenomena are caused by gods like those outside, do you? You still believe in wizards, do you want me to find a book of fairy tales for you to read as a bedtime story?"

"You don't know anything about wizards and gods?" Leo could see that Leon Belmont's attitude was not fake. He really didn't believe in wizards and gods, so he asked again: "What about the family members? What about the night watchman?" ?”

Leon Belmont thought for a while, and responded: "I know the Night Watchman, there is a nasty guy who once invited me to join this shitty mysterious organization, but I refused. As for the family members, you are talking about those deformed Crazy?"

Leo found out that Leon Belmont did not know anything about the dark world, which made him have a guess and asked, "Do you remember what you were doing before you came here?"

Leon Belmont replied suspiciously: "Of course I remember. I offended a nobleman and had to leave the Kingdom of England. Then I encountered a shipwreck at sea and ended up living here for fifteen years. Is there any problem? "

"Of course there are problems." Leo carefully recalled the life of Leon Belmont, and soon remembered the shipwreck that Leon Belmont said. In fact, almost most of them liked the experience of this shipwreck All drama fans of Lionheart Knight's Merry History know that this is also an important plot that must be mentioned when dramatists write plots.

In the play, Leon, who was shipwrecked, experienced all kinds of erotic adventures, such as having an affair with the daughter of the sea god, such as becoming a king on an island full of women, etc. Anyway, how absurd it came.

The reason why the playwright wrote this is entirely because Leon was missing for three months after being shipwrecked and was rescued at sea, and the clothes Leon was wearing at that time were different from those of the people at that time. The weirdest thing was It was Leon who had no memory of what happened during those three months of disappearance.

Therefore, many good people speculated that during the three months when Leon disappeared, he must have encountered some mysterious things, and it must have been very evocative, so a lot of stories were born in this way.

Leo still remembered that Leon Belmont seemed to have been more and more closely connected with the dark world since this time.

"In your life experience, you were shipwrecked and disappeared for three months, and after you were rescued, the memory of these three months was lost. Now it seems that the three months you disappeared should be the Trapped here for more than ten years."

Leo didn't consider the butterfly effect and other time hypotheses. He felt that even if Leon knew about his future experience, leaving here would be erased by some force, so he made his guess and also told about Leon's experience. Tell him the life of Belmont.

Leon Belmont was stunned to listen to others tell his life, not knowing what to say for a moment.

After a while, he slowly asked: "You mean that after I leave here, I can still be young, and I can still be with the noble lady of the Faran Empire... Haha! The only good news."

Leo didn't expect that after Leon Belmont heard about his life, he didn't focus on the cause of his death at all, but instead focused on whether he could become younger and how many women he would have in the future.

"Aren't you curious about the cause of your death?" Although Leo was not very curious about Leon Belmont's thoughts, he still asked casually.

Leon Belmont shrugged and said: "Curious, but don't want to know, didn't you say it too? If I really leave this island and return to the world of my time period, I will forget everything here, So it’s useless whether you know it or not, it’s just ruining your mood.”

"You were poisoned to death by a woman." Leo was silent for a while, but still told the cause of Leon Belmont's death, and added: "This scene was written into a play by many dramatists, and it was performed in all the countries of Vinen. There is a famous play that has never faded, and almost everyone in Velen who likes plays knows this play."

Leon Belmont was silent for a moment, and asked: "My life has been written into a biographical story, and also written into a lot of dramas? Damn, thinking about it makes people feel excited, and now there is another reason to leave here. "

Leo looked at Leon Belmont, who was a little excited, and didn't continue talking about him. Instead, he changed the topic back and asked, "Mr. Leon, you just said that you don't believe in gods and wizards, so what about those outside?" How do you explain an invisible wall?"

"It's very simple. It's something created by a machine." Perhaps because of the previous conversation, the relationship between the two is no longer dark, and the atmosphere in the basement has eased a lot. Facing Leo's inquiry, , Leon Belmont said directly without thinking: "The old man who gave me the notes was once taken to a high tower by the Yam people. When he came back, he told me that there was a very delicate and delicate machine in that high tower. It will take tens of thousands of years to go to the outside world, and it may not be possible to manufacture a machine, that machine can generate a kind of power, and the Weiya people use this power to resist the monsters that appear on the sea, and also to resist the priests of the black city."

"Do you know what that machine looks like?" Leo asked again.

"I don't know," Leon Belmont shook his head, but then he drank some wine, drew a ball on the table, and said, "But the old man told me that there is such a ball printed on that machine. "

Leo looked at the pattern, and instantly recognized the pattern as the icon of the General Equipment Department of the Earth Federation. Almost all military products produced by the Earth Federation will be printed with such a mark.

"You recognize this mark." Leon Belmont was keenly aware of something, and asked in a deep voice.

"Yes." Leo didn't hide anything, just nodded and admitted, but he didn't want to continue this topic, let alone change Leon Belmont's view of the gods, but deliberately changed the topic and said, "Why do you Will you choose me as a collaborator in your plan? Don't you worry that I am a spy sent by them?"

"Of course I'm not afraid," Leon Belmont said to Leo with deep meaning, "Because you and those Yam people are definitely not in the same group, you don't have the smell of holy insects on you, and this is the first time I saw someone He didn't let the holy insects parasitize at all." He poured himself a drink, let out a long breath of foul air, and then continued: "I have seen many people who are eager to get out of the status quo and spare no effort to let The Holy Insect metamorphoses, the guy I dealt with just now is one of them. There are also some people who are not keen on the development of the Holy Insect at all. They just muddle through every day and leave nothing behind until they die. You are not that kind of person ?” Then he pointed to himself and said, “And I’m not that kind of person.”

"You didn't let the holy insects parasitize." Leo was stunned for a moment, but soon doubted: "No, if you were not parasitized by the insects in the obsidian, how did you get the ability to be invisible."

"Of course it's impossible not to be parasitic, but it's just that after the parasite, it doesn't matter whether it's dead or on fire." Leon Belmont unbuttoned his skirt to reveal his neck, and saw a hideous scar appearing on the other side. neck.

Seeing that scar, Leo couldn't help admiring the tenacity of Leon Belmont's vitality, and at the same time felt more and more problematic. Because judging from the depth of the knife scar, it is impossible for ordinary people to survive in this situation, but Leon Belmont is living a good life, and his voice has not even been affected by the knife scar. Something must have happened.

Perhaps feeling the suspicion expressed by Leo, Leon Belmont didn't explain much, directly pulled out a small knife, and drew a line on his arm.
