The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

After hearing this answer, Leo acted very calmly. After all, he had obviously expected it. It was just that the idea of ​​the god seed was a bit exaggerated in his opinion, but since the eyeless mother said so, it means that there must be reason.

Eyeless Mammy, who was paying attention to the changes in Leo's expression, seemed a little disappointed, and was also curious about what else could surprise Leo.

"Why do you think the parasites in the obsidian are the seeds of the gods?" Leo asked.

Eyeless Nanny said in a deep voice, "It's not that I think so, it's my lord who told me."

After finishing speaking, she signaled Leo to wait a moment, stood up, turned and walked out of the room, after a while she came in with a box, handed it to Leo, and signaled Leo to open it.

Leo took the box without thinking too much, and opened the box directly, only to find this transparent crystal inside the box, and inside the crystal, there was a golden chrysalis. If you look carefully, you can see that there are a lot of golden symbols around the cocoon. Each of these golden symbols has extremely powerful power, and they not only imprison the golden cocoon, but also nourish and cultivate the cocoon.

"This is the result of my lord extracting the parasite from the obsidian and then cultivating it." Mumu Wumu explained: "As long as the cocoon is broken and the adults are absorbed, you can make yourself a god." Opportunity."

When she said this, the eyeless mother watched Leo's expression, and there was a strange look in her eyes.

"Not bad." Leo just memorized all the golden symbols in the transparent crystal, then closed the box again abruptly, and handed it back to the eyeless mother.

Eyeless Nanny looked at the box in her hand, and asked Leo with a puzzled expression, "Don't you have any greed?"

Leo didn't answer. He closed his eyes and meditated for a while. After opening his eyes, he looked at the eyeless mother with a strange look.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Eyeless Nanny looked at Leo with a puzzled expression.

"Nothing," Leo retracted his gaze, shook his head, and then said, "I don't have any more questions to ask, since you want me to help Alice complete her plan, then you must know how to get back to Baicheng, I Make a promise with Alice to wait for her at the Giant's Gate in White City."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away." Eyeless Nanny readily agreed, stood up, and walked out of the room.

When Leo was alone in the room, the expression on Leo's face became a little dignified, his eyes fell on the transparent crystal placed in the box on the table by the eyeless mother, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Leo stood up, walked to the door, opened the door directly, and looked at the scene outside the door.

What he saw before his eyes was no longer the spiral staircase of the high tower, but a field of reeds that could not be seen to the limit. The sunset glow spread from the end of the sky, giving the blue sky a layer of gorgeous red. A fresh breeze blows over the reeds, taking away some of the fragrance of the reeds, and then blows over Leo's face, pouring this fragrance into Leo's nose, relaxing his nervousness a little a little.

Although the scene in front of him was extremely weird, Leo did not show any surprise, instead he walked into the reed field very naturally.

The moment he entered the reed field with his whole body, the door behind him was like a weathered stone, gradually disintegrating into dust with a gust of wind, floating in the air, and falling into the reed field.

The disappearance of the back road did not make Leo feel any fear. On the contrary, he looked at the extremely beautiful scene in front of him with great interest, smiled on his face, and said, "I really miss it! I haven't seen such a beautiful scene for many years. Should I thank you for letting me recall this scene deeply buried in my memory, Your Majesty the Victims."

"You're welcome, I like this scene too, and I never thought that Velen would have such a beautiful scene." A voice suddenly sounded from beside Leo, and at some point, there was an extra person beside Leo. He is a human being, and this person's appearance is very similar to Leo's, but his temperament is more noble. After seeing it, people can't help but have the urge to worship him.

"This scene is not Velen, but another place." Leo could also feel the invisible power of the existence beside him. In order not to let himself be affected, he did not turn his head to look at the other party, but kept looking at the distance covered by the reed. The original blocked sun.

"Isn't it Velen?" The victim muttered thoughtfully, and then asked with great interest, "Why do you doubt me?"

Leo was also polite, and said: "You are too impatient! I knew there was a problem when I took out the bug."

"Are you too impatient?" The victim muttered, "Do you know what a chrysalis is?"

"Yes, God Seed." Leo said.

The victim asked suspiciously: "Since you know it is the seed of the gods, why are you not interested? I don't feel any greed for the seeds of the gods in your heart."

"I used the god seed to become a god, am I still me?" Leo asked calmly.

The victim fell silent, and Leo didn't speak. He just quietly felt the cool breeze and the warm sunlight falling on his body. Apart from the rustling of reeds rubbing against each other, there was no other sound.

I don't know how long it took before the victim sighed and said, "Did you expect that I would not be able to cause you any harm?"

"Yes." Leo nodded and admitted, "If you could really do something to me, you wouldn't spend so much time guiding me." He paused for a moment, then turned his head to look at the face and He was exactly the same as the victim, trying to suppress the side effects of the other party's invisible power, and asked in a deep voice: "Why? Why are you gods of Velen interested in me?"

The victim also stared at Leo and said, "Because even the gods don't want to die silently, but want to live and live for a long time. Your body is very special, so special that even you can imagine it. less than that."

Leo said suspiciously: "In this case, why don't you be more direct, anyway, in front of you gods, I don't have the strength to resist."

The victim repeated the previous words again, and said, "You still didn't understand, I said that your body is very special, so special that you can't even imagine it." After finishing speaking, he raised his hand and touched Leo. forehead, said: "Since they all gave you the mark, then I am no exception."

Leo only felt a scorching torrent pouring in from the place where the victim's fingers touched, pouring into his body instantly, and under the interaction of various forces in his body, it was finally divided into two parts and poured into each other. Among his left and right feet, after causing a sharp pain in the soles of his feet, they immediately returned to normal.

The moment Leo was hit by the victim, he fell into a state of confusion. Apart from being able to feel the various conditions of his own body, he could no longer feel any movement from the outside world, as if he was in the void of the universe. generally.

But soon he woke up from that state, but when he woke up and began to look at the surrounding environment, he found that the previous reed field had disappeared, and the high tower had also disappeared. And the place where he was standing at the moment was still the city wall of Baicheng, but the city wall was no longer made of skulls, but changed back to the original appearance of piled stones, and that powerful force was still eager to move inside the city wall.

In addition, everything around has returned to the White City made of huge stones. The only thing that remains unchanged is the gray fog that covers the entire White City, and the monsters mutated by the parasites that are still raging in the White City.

Seeing that he had returned to Baicheng, Leo breathed a sigh of relief, and when he felt the power in the city wall flowing under his feet, even though he knew that this force would not hurt him now, he still jumped off the city wall and found I found an empty stone house, sat on the ground, took off my shoes, and looked at the soles of my feet. I saw that there was a rune-like pattern on the sole of his foot at this moment.

When his attention was focused on this imprint, some information immediately poured out from the imprint and merged into his consciousness, allowing him to instantly understand the usage of the power contained in this imprint, just like other gods integrated into the body Same mark.

Although he gained new power, Leo was not happy at all, and could only respond with a wry smile on his face.

At this moment, Leo has already determined that the power to drive away the eyeball should be the victim, and it was also the victim who secretly acted to make him enter the World Sanctuary in Baicheng directly the moment he entered Baicheng, and he was also attached to the Eyeless Nanny. , to guide him, wanting him to swallow the god-seed conveyed by the obsidian parasite without knowing it.

It's a pity that the sufferer was too eager for success, and Leo noticed it. If he could be more patient and let Leo focus on the various knowledge he revealed before making a move, maybe he has succeeded now up.

It's just that even though the answers to Leo's questions are purposeful, the content of those answers are not fabricated at will, but real things.

For example, the world in Baicheng is real, the shelter is real, and only the people in the shelter also exist. Even some of the things and people mentioned in the conversation may also be real.

Thinking of this, Leo couldn't help regretting that he was so anxious to dismantle the eyeless mother. If he delays a little longer, he will find a chance to look at the relics left by William Dodd in the shelter. Details.

In fact, since Leo entered the world of Baicheng, he instinctively felt that something was wrong, especially the scene where he met the little boy, he always felt that something was very weird. It was just that at the time he thought it was because of other reasons, such as the statue of Gaia that entered the deep consciousness, or the blood of giants, etc., the power integrated into his body made him feel a little abnormal, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

It wasn't until the Eyeless Mother suddenly took out an invisible crystal that sealed the chrysalis, and he saw the golden runes on it, that he really realized that something was wrong, and then discovered the existence of the victim.

However, he did not expect that the god of the victim would appear in front of him and talk to him in person. This was completely beyond his expectation and made him feel extremely weird.

Because, if he remembers correctly, the victims should believe in the gods, and the gods who believe in the gods cannot appear in front of others anytime and anywhere like the gods with bodies like the golden giant deer. body.

For example, gods like corpse collectors seem to be able to descend anytime and anywhere, but the process of his descent is not without any sacrifice. Every time he descends, he should pay for the souls he collected, and this is still in a special place like the sea of ​​abyss. place.

However, the sufferer, a deity born of the belief in suffering in the world of Velen, is a pure deity of faith. If he wants to manifest himself in front of people, it is absolutely impossible to be there on call. The only thing that can be explained is that the god of the victim is always here, and the shelter of the world in Baicheng may be the body of the god of the victim, so he can appear in front of Leo anytime and anywhere, and can also suddenly appear to help Lei Ou drove away the eyeballs transformed by the power of Ye Shen's sigh.

But what confused Leo even more was that the reason for the appearance of the victim, the deity, was a bit far-fetched, because he said that the reason for the deity's coveting was to survive. Other gods of faith said that this reason might be valid, but he said that this reason is It's a little weird.

Because as the incarnation of suffering, he will exist forever as long as the suffering in the Velen world does not end for a day, and even when the Velen world enters the interstellar civilization, he can still enter the interstellar civilization with the footsteps of the Velen people, so he has no Any pressure on faith will not be weakened by the reduction of faith like other gods of faith, and will eventually disappear.

So, thinking about it carefully, Leo felt that the victim might not have told the truth, or not all the truth. The only thing that might be true was that his body was very special, just as the victim said. , he still didn't know what was so special about it.

At this moment, a burst of dog barking suddenly came from outside the abandoned house, and the barking sound got closer and closer, and finally stopped outside the house, barking into the house.

In this situation, it is almost unnecessary to think about it, and you can know that your whereabouts have been discovered. Leo put on his shoes, walked quickly to the side wall of the house, and looked out from the gap in the wooden boards.

It's just that he didn't see any dogs, and there was nothing outside, but the barking of dogs didn't stop. Along with the barking of dogs, the sound of heavy objects hitting the door and the wall, it seemed It should look like something is constantly hitting the wall.

For this reason, Leo activated the spirit vision skill, and then looked out.

I saw that the scene outside changed completely at this time. On the empty street, there were seven or eight incense burners holding lanterns, and around the incense burners were more than a dozen skinned human body stumps intertwined. A dog-like monster.
