The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Are you still there?" After cooperating with the female leader to solve a monster more than seven meters high, Alice and the female leader immediately retreated to the side of the eyeless mother, and asked in a low voice.

Since entering the Black City, the battles they encountered have not stopped. After so many battles, the cooperation between the three has become proficient, and their respective abilities have also begun to stand out.

For example, the Eyeless Sister can perceive the enemy in advance, and even know that it is safer to take the road like a prediction, and can easily find out the weakness of the monster during the battle.

Alice has the ability to cover the perception of the outside world. As long as her power is fully exerted, even if a group of people walk to the giant monster's feet, the giant monster will not be able to detect it. Completely lost all perception of the outside world.

As for the female leader, she has a stronger attack power. Her spear seems to be endowed with some kind of indestructible attribute. Any monster stabbed by it, no matter how strong the stabbing part is, instantly becomes a monster. Like flimsy paper, it can be easily pierced, and piercing the monster's vitals is almost equivalent to the effect of blessing and instant death.

The cooperation of the three people can be said to complement each other and be perfect. It is difficult for any monster encountered to survive with their cooperation. If there is no accident, there will be no trouble before they reach the holy hall.

However, not long ago, after they cooperated to solve a ten-meter-high giant monster, the eyeless mother suddenly sensed an evil thought full of danger. This evil thought was very close to them, and most of them fell On her body, and she also felt that if Alice and the female leader hadn't returned to her in time, the source of that evil thought might have already attacked her.

The Eyeless Sister secretly told Alice and the female leader about her sense of evil thoughts. Originally, she planned to find out the source of the evil thoughts through her induction, and the three of them cooperated to solve the source of the evil thoughts.

But what surprised her was that the previous invincible induction seemed to have failed this time, because she sensed that this evil thought was erratic around them, without any fixed position. It might be behind them one second, but it has already moved to the next second. Ahead, it seemed that a force was interfering with her senses, causing her to have wrong perceptions.

Since then, this evil thought has never disappeared, and it has always surrounded them. Moreover, the evil thought is no longer only aimed at the eyeless mother. Alice and the female leader have also encountered it, but the two of them have not sensed it. , several times when the two of them dealt with the giant monsters they encountered, the evil thoughts suddenly shifted to them, and it was strongly indicated that they wanted to attack the two of them. Fatal flaw.

Fortunately, Sister Wumu reminded the two of them in time, so that they could pay attention to their own protection in advance, so that the source of this evil thought was not attacked.

Although the eyeless mother can always sense evil thoughts and judge the timing of the opponent's attack from the strength of evil thoughts, she can give a warning in advance, but this kind of person must be on guard against possible sudden attacks all the time, and her spirit is always in a state of tension. A person with a weak body like the Wumu Nanny can't bear it even with a strong body like the female leader.

The three of them knew very well that if they continued to drag on like this, perhaps before they reached the holy hall, they might make some fatal mistakes due to over-stressed nerves.

So the three of them exchanged their views in a tacit understanding, and decided to take the initiative to lure the source of the evil thoughts to take action, and solve this trouble as soon as possible.

After making a decision, the Eyeless Sister will search for some relatively weak giant monsters through induction. When Alice and the female leader attack the monsters, they will deliberately reveal some seemingly fatal flaws, and the Eyeless Sister will also be there. At this time, keep away from the protection of Alice and the female leader as much as possible, because she has other life-saving means, which are enough to save her life at the moment of a fatal attack, and can also hold back the attacker.

However, the source of this evil intention is very shrewd. They deliberately showed their flaws many times, but they were not fooled. This made the three of them a little anxious.

Facing Alice's question, the Eyeless Mammy nodded slightly. Perceiving the surrounding situation for a long time, her spirit became extremely tired, and her already pale face became paler at this moment, and the tiredness between her brows It can no longer be concealed, and it is obvious that if it continues, it won't be long before she can no longer have any precise perception.

"You should take a break." The female leader looked worriedly at the eyeless nun who was looking exhausted.

Regarding this, the Eyeless Sister just shook her head and said, "Let's move on, I will find a shortcut to reach the holy hall in the shortest time, no matter what..."

While speaking, another earthquake occurred, and this time the vibration was so strong that the pillars of a huge stone house next to them could not bear it, the surface cracked, and under the pressure of the heavy roof, it collapsed.

The sudden collapse of the building also disrupted the position of the three of them. In order to avoid the huge falling stones, the three of them chose the most suitable position to dodge, and this avoidance caused the three of them to be separated by the falling stones. In different positions, no one person can rush to help another person in the shortest time.

At this moment, the eyeless mother sensed that evil intention instantly became stronger, and immediately realized in her heart that the opponent had decided to make a move, and the target was obviously her who was the weakest in actual combat.

The Eyeless Nanny instantly inspired the divine spell she had prepared long ago. This is a divine spell bestowed by the victim, called Ultimate Endurance. This magical spell can make the caster's physical fitness leap in a short period It can be improved to withstand any extreme environment, including attacks, and the body's self-healing ability is also improved. As long as the head is not fatally injured, even if the heart is broken, it can heal quickly, and even directly grow a new one. heart.

Almost at the same time that the Eyeless Mama inspired her magic, a huge black shadow appeared in front of her out of thin air, accompanied by a pair of extremely sharp claws, which easily shredded the surrounding area. The hard rock swept towards her, and the claws attacked not only her heart, but also her head.

The Eyeless Nanny instantly judged that her magical powers could not resist the claw's attack, and according to the location of the opponent's attack, even if she had a strong self-healing ability, she could not escape the end of death.

The appearance of the black shadow naturally alarmed Alice and the female leader, but their current position was too late to help, and they could only watch helplessly as the monster's claws attacked the head and heart of the eyeless mother.

Just when everyone present and the monster thought that the eyeless mama was doomed, the monster's attack suddenly stopped. Its sharp claws were only a few centimeters away from the eyeless mama, and then the huge body of the monster came from the middle. Separated, broken in half, all kinds of disgusting viscera and blood spilled all over the ground, and behind the monster figure was a normal person holding a long sword.

After seeing who came, all three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Eyeless Nanny felt that the evil thoughts had completely disappeared, her mind was relaxed, and her body felt limp and weak, so she had to sit on the ground. When the female leader saw the eyeless mother sitting on the ground, she thought she was injured, and hurried forward to check the situation. Alice, on the other hand, focused on the person who came, and said with a smile, "You showed up just in time. If it wasn't for you, she might have to feed the monster today."

"I actually caught up with you a long time ago, but I just found out that there is a monster hunting you, and the monster's ability is special. I'm not sure that I can take it down in one blow, so I just followed behind, waiting for the opportunity." The visitor came from the shadows. stepped out and replied.

I saw that the person who rescued the Eyeless Mama was Leo, who had caught up with the three of them earlier. He had been lurking beside him, staring at the monster that could only move in space. , found the monster's flaw, and killed it with one blow before it hurt the Eyeless Mama.

Alice asked with some doubts: "Why did you come out of the trial area so slowly? Did you get lost? We thought something happened to you."

"The place I went to should be different from yours." Leo replied, shaking off the sticky blood on the cross sword.

"It's not the same?" Not only Alice was puzzled when she heard the words, but even the eyeless nun and the female leader who were resting looked at Leo suspiciously. They knew very well that what Leo said was not the same A different location in a region, but a completely different place.

"Where did you go?" Alice asked curiously.

"Anor Londe." Leo didn't mention the place where everything ends and the king city, but the city above the city where the gods lived.

However, a surprising scene appeared. Neither Alice nor the Eyeless Nanny had any abnormal reactions to the name. They just had a thoughtful look on their faces. They were obviously looking for clues related to the name in their memory. But the female leader showed a completely different expression from the two. Her eyes were wide open, and her expression was full of surprise. She opened her mouth to ask but she didn't have any concerns. Obviously she knew the meaning of Arnoel Londe .

"You know Wangcheng?" Leo naturally noticed the look of the female leader and asked immediately.

When Alice and the Eyeless Sister heard the words, they also noticed the abnormality of the female leader, so they looked at the female leader at the same time.

The female leader hesitated for a moment and explained: "There is a legend in our tribe that our ancestors came from a place called Wangcheng, which was built by the gods, and the gods lived in Arnoel Londe above the Wangcheng. Later, for unknown reasons, my ancestors left the royal city, passed through the endless fog filled with countless dangers, and finally came to Velen, and settled down in the wilderness of the Mosang Continent."

Hearing the female leader's explanation, all three of them were surprised by the content of the conversation, but the directions of the three people's surprises were different.

Alice and the Eyeless Sister were surprised that Arnoel Londo was a city where gods lived, and that the royal city turned out to be a mixture of humans and gods, which is simply unthinkable in the world of Velen. What surprised Leo was the story of the female leader coming to the world of Velen, because this story just confirmed his earlier guess.

The place where the king city was originally located is the same world as Velen, which means that the other worlds that the king city serves as outposts are also the same world, but they are all divided into different regions by the mist.

At this time, Leo suddenly remembered the psychic imprint he left on Joey the living dead, so he tried to sense it, but Yam Island is a special subspace fragment, and it is not in the same world as Velen, so There is no induction.

"Have you seen the gods? Is Arnoel Londo really the city where the gods live?" Alice asked out of curiosity.

The Eyeless Sister also looked at Leo full of inquiry. Although she has been in contact with the victims of her beliefs all year round, no matter how close the contact is, it is only a hazy feeling, as if separated by a layer of fog, and she can't see clearly. The image of the gods, as the most classic sentence in all religious scriptures says, the gods cannot be seen.

But now there is a city where gods live, and they live together with mortals. Her first thought was not to doubt the authenticity of this matter, but to know what gods look like.

As for the female leader, she is full of expectations. After all, the place Leo has been to can be said to be her hometown. She grew up listening to similar legends. She did not believe these legends before, but now someone has been there. So, it means that the legends of the ancestors are true, and she really wants to know more details.

It's a pity that they are doomed to be disappointed. Leo didn't intend to go into details about the royal city. After all, the embers, the fire of origin, etc. can't be explained clearly for a while, so he simply responded: "The gods have left. The royal city has been abandoned."

After hearing this, the three of them all showed a little disappointment, thinking that the royal city that Leo went to was just an empty relic, which could not prove that the gods really lived there.

"Can you still walk? This doesn't seem like a suitable place to rest." Leo saw a ten-meter-high giant monster moving towards him in the distance, so he reminded the three of them.

"You can go." The eyeless mother stood up with a slightly better complexion, slapped the dust on her body, then frowned, and said, "My induction is temporarily unavailable, and it may take a while to recover." use."

"It's okay, come with me!" Leo signaled the female leader to help the eyeless mother, then nodded to Alice, and turned to leave.

However, just as he took a step, he stopped suddenly, turned around to look at the pile of monster corpses, and then, under the watchful eyes of Alice and the others, walked into the pile of corpses, rummaged through the smelly internal organs, and got out of the pile of corpses. A ruby-like object was grabbed.

"What is this?" Alice looked at this gem-like object curiously. They had killed many monsters before, but they had never found such a thing in the monster's body.

"An interesting thing." Leo didn't answer directly, he put the thing in his pocket directly, then turned around and led the way.

Seeing that Leo didn't answer, the three of them didn't continue to ask, and followed quickly.
