The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

After following the little boy through a street, watching the little boy skillfully avoid some monsters' detection routes, Leo had a thoughtful look on his face.

The reason why Leo chose to go with the little boy was that apart from wanting to know who the survivors were, he was also curious and confused about the little boy himself.

Because he hadn't found a child and a woman in Yam City before, the sudden appearance of this child made Leo wonder where the child came from, and from the behavior of this child, he was obviously very interested in the streets and The monsters that appear here are very familiar, not like new arrivals.

Similarly, the child calling him a foreigner just now implies that the child is obviously a resident of Yam City, which is completely different from what Leo has seen and heard.

With doubts, the two quickly followed a safe route chosen by the little boy to the side of a high tower closest to the city wall. They saw that the bone houses around this high tower were all reinforced with stones, and the stones were also piled up. A castle was built, supported by columns, connected with the second floor of the tower, preventing monsters from attacking from above.

At the entrance of this fortress, some block fences made of monster bones are densely placed around, and there are a large number of monster skulls hanging on each fence. It would be nothing to put one or two of these monster skulls together. Abnormal circumstances, but hundreds of them placed together can produce a kind of energy fluctuation, just like the energy fluctuation formed by Leo's obsidian, making the monsters in the city think that there are powerful monsters entrenched here, and dare not approach.

In addition, there is a magic circle composed of complex runes on the ground at the door. This circle of magic circle is not only on the ground, but also spreads to the walls of the surrounding bone house, wrapping the entire perimeter of the tower in it, with the magic circle Considering its scale, it must be spectacular if it works.

However, what really attracted Leo's attention was not the size of the magic circle. In fact, after seeing the stone ball that blocked the Eye of Reality, it was difficult for him to be shocked by the scale of the magic circle. He would pay extra attention to it. This magic circle is because this magic circle is a unique rune circle in the dream world. Even the runes that make up the magic circle come from the dream world, but most of them are Turing roots from the Vinylon world.

When he saw this magic circle, Leo immediately thought of Alice Belmont, because it seems that in this weird place of Yam Island, she is the only one who can complete such a fusion of different witchcraft systems in the dream world and Velen world. magic circle.

"Outlanders, follow up quickly. When Mammy asks you later, you must answer honestly. Mammy doesn't like liars. If you lie, Mammy will drive you away." The little boy Slowing down at the door, he whispered a few words to Leo who was following up.

While speaking, he quickened his pace again, came to the bone door of the fence, pulled the rope next to it, and after a while, he saw the small window of the door was opened, and a woman's voice came from behind the small window , said: "It's you again, little Peter, you ran out without authorization again, don't you know it's the activity period?"

As the voice fell, the bone door slowly opened from the inside, and then five or six men and women with strong bodies, wearing bone armor, and holding bone spears came out from behind the door, and these men and women saw the people who were following behind. Queen Leo, who was behind the little boy, instinctively clenched the weapon in his hand, and made a gesture towards the back, and then heard footsteps coming from behind the door and the rustling sound of bone armor rubbing against each other.

"Little Peter, come here." The leading woman beckoned to the little boy, and clenched the bone spear in her other hand to prevent any accidents.

The little boy curled his lips, turned around and gestured to Leo not to worry, and walked towards the woman.

After the little boy came to her side, the woman pulled him aside, then signaled to the people behind him to take him away, then looked at Leo and said, "Outsider, who are you? How did you come here?"

"I said I was lost, do you believe it?" Leo felt the strong hostility from the other party, so he spread his hands and said with a smile.

"Lost?" The woman's face became a little ugly, she raised the bone spear in her hand, pointed it at Leo, and said, "Outsider, you'd better be honest, do you think anyone will believe the lie of getting lost?"

Seeing the leader raised his weapon, others also raised their weapons one after another, aiming at Leo, and some closed windows on the city wall were also opened, and sharp bone arrows protruded from the window, aiming at Leo. Leo, the stone who will do anything if there is a disagreement.

Facing the threat, Leo looked around with disdain. At the same time, he also used the power of nightmare to condense two kinds of witchcraft from the witcher in his hands.

"Joan, don't mess around." Just as the tense confrontation made the surrounding atmosphere more and more tense, an old woman's voice came from behind the door, and a black nun's suit was immediately seen. The old woman came out from behind the door, motioned for everyone to put away their weapons, then walked up to Leo, and said, "Nice to meet you, stranger! We haven't had any strangers here for a long time, and we can meet the new It's a joy to have blood in."

"Hello, ma'am!" Leo saluted the old nun, and looked at the church crest embroidered on the woman's clothes.

The victim is a very indescribable or indescribable deity in the world of Velen. Although he is in the roster of the Orthodox Church and has very formal churches and churches, his church members are often mixed with heretics.

It is impossible to test when the earliest belief of the victims appeared. It is only known that the belief of the victims should have originated from a certain disaster in ancient times. It may be a natural disaster, or it may be a man-made disaster. strong emotions.

The size of the Church of the Victims has never been fixed. The more wars rage and the more disasters occur, the more believers the Church of the Victims will have. During the Great Plague, the number of believers in the Church of the Victims has grown to a very terrifying number, even In order to curb the number of Churches of the Victims, those in power in various countries have begun to secretly restrict the spread of the Church of the Victims among the people.

But as the world begins to move towards peace, although various wars still occur from time to time, and various natural disasters still exist, the governments and churches of various countries have already developed a set of countermeasures for such disasters, and few people are so desperate It was necessary to ask the gods for help, so the Church of the Victims fell into silence during this period of time.

However, the devastating disaster in Miria City this time made the Church of the Victims develop rapidly in Miria City. At least during the time Leo was in Miria City, he discovered many Churches of the Victims. The priests wandered in various ruined cities and neighborhoods.

Now seeing a nun of the Church of the Victims appearing in this strange city, Leo was not surprised at all, but what made him wonder why he had not found any traces of the Church of the Victims in Baicheng before, nor did he see any traces of the Church of the Victims. I have never heard of these people, let alone any information related to these people.

"Unless the place where I am now is not Baicheng." Leo suddenly had an idea, and couldn't help but look around, quickly memorized the locations of several high towers in the city, and compared them with the ones in his memory. The location of the White City Tower.

The result of the comparison made him even more puzzled, because the positions of these towers were not abnormal, they were exactly the same as the positions of the towers in Baicheng, and the positions of the streets were also the same, so it could be seen that this was Baicheng.

Leo's behavior of looking around misunderstood the soldiers behind the nuns, thinking that Leo was an accomplice who should be hiding to send a signal, and instantly became nervous, and they all clenched the bone spears in their hands by coincidence. To Leo.

"Joan, you've been too nervous lately." On the contrary, the nun who stood opposite Leo without any spiritual fluctuations and no different from ordinary people looked very calm, turned her head and said to the female leader, and then raised her hand He signaled everyone not to be nervous and relieved the surrounding atmosphere, then turned his head, looked at Leo and said: "If you are not so nervous, you should be able to see that this foreigner is not those parasitic monsters, he is just like us. Parasite."

Hearing what the nuns said, everyone's nervousness eased a little bit, and the eyes they looked at Leo became a lot more kind. Only the female leader's eyes were still full of suspicion. Strange foreigners who appeared in this period were not trusted.

At this time, there was a sudden ferocious roar in the distance, and everyone's face became serious when they heard the roar, and the nun lost her calmness just now, and said to Leo: "Please follow me!" Come on, this is not a place to talk, I think your Excellency should have a lot of questions in mind, so it would be better for us to go in and talk."

Although this roar is full of deterrence, it is nothing to Leo. Compared with the roar of the giant leader Guha who turned into a volcano, this roar is like a baby crying without any deterrent force.

However, even if Leo was not afraid of the source of the roar, he did not intend to expose his strength until he understood the current situation, so after hearing the nun's suggestion, he nodded and followed the nun Behind him, he walked towards the inside of the fort.

The female leader gave instructions to the subordinates around her, and followed her closely behind Leo.

The moment the fort's bone gate closed, Leo paused and looked towards the closed gate. Although it was only a flash, Leo did feel a special wave of spiritual energy, which should have originated from a certain god.

This discovery also made Leo have a different look at this nun, because in this era, there are too few church priests who can gain the favor of the gods and bestow divine powers. These priests are undoubtedly the favored by the gods. Ordinary nuns and nuns are also divinely favored.

Anyone who can obtain power from the gods cannot simply judge their strength by their superficial state. Now this nun may seem to be easily crushed to death, but when she is blessed with divine power, her strength may be Able to reach the level of a ninth-level psychic.

The god of the victims is famous for its eccentricity, and no pious believer in peacetime can expect to get his response, but when disaster strikes, ordinary believers can sense his existence. Even so, it is undeniable that among the various gods recorded by the Orthodox Church, the power of the victim is still very powerful. At least in the records of the church records, when this god conflicted with other gods, he never suffered a disadvantage. .

Although most of the gods in the current world of Vinylon have disappeared, and the remaining gods can maintain ordinary divine favors, it is already very good, but this place is not the world of Vinylon. Leo can figure it out now.

Thinking of this, Leo couldn't help tidying up his slightly relaxed mood. He no longer regarded this nun as an ordinary religious priest, but regarded her as an equally powerful person.

When Leo's mood changed, the nun seemed to have sensed it, slowed down, turned to look at Leo, smiled, and said nothing.

Although the fortress doesn't look very big on the outside, the space inside is very spacious. Even if the inside space is built into a three-storey attic group connected by suspension bridges with wooden shelves, it doesn't look crowded at all.

In this small space, there are many people living, and the number of people who come and go on the street is roughly thousands, and the number of people living in the attic is several times that. There are about 10,000 to 20,000 people living in the fort built with a line of houses around the tower.

And judging from the traces of the surrounding residence, it is obvious that these people have lived here for a long time, not like survivors who just happened to be forced to gather together.

Seeing this, Leo realized in his heart that he must have miscalculated some things, and also overlooked some key things.

The status of the nuns here is very high. Everywhere she walks, the people who are busy with their work, and the children who are playing will stop what they are doing and salute respectfully to the nuns. Leo could feel that these respects came from the heart, not just superficial etiquette.

However, after showing their respect, they also panicked at Leo, who was following the nuns, and avoided them one after another, as if Leo had some highly contagious disease, and he would be infected if he got it.

"Please don't blame them for being impolite. The main reason is that some foreigners did some bad things in the past, which made their impression of foreigners very bad." It seemed to avoid causing any bad things to Leo by the actions of the people around him. Due to the misunderstanding, the nun slowed down and explained to Leo.

"It doesn't matter, their attitude is meaningless to me." Leo said coldly.

The nun smiled and said nothing.

"Hmph!" But the female leader following behind didn't like Leo's attitude and snorted coldly.
