The Mysterious World Under Steampunk
Chapter 54
Hearing what Sean said, and then looking at the thousands of skeletons in the surrounding beehives, it is not difficult to see from the size of some of the skeletons that many of them are underage children, which makes Catherine, who is also a slave descendant, present Everyone, including High Priest Denis, instantly felt that the hatred of the French royal family for those slaves back then was not unreasonable.
However, this burst of nostalgia did not last long, and everyone's attention was already attracted by other things on the platform.
On this platform, there is only a stone chair integrated with the platform. On the chair sits a man wearing an ancient aristocratic costume. This man is holding a bone with a huge sapphire inlaid on the top in one hand. Staff, holding an egg so transparent that you can see the reptile larva inside, and the appearance of this person is actually very similar to Nelson.
"Ocean Scepter!"
"Mother brood larvae!"
Almost at the same time, Sean and High Priest Deni called out two different names at the same time.
After everyone heard these two names, their eyes could not help but fall on the objects that matched the two names. On the contrary, Leo's eyes were completely on the man sitting on the chair.
At this time, Sean and High Priest Deni were both attracted by the items they had dreamed of, and they couldn't help walking forward, wanting to reach out and pick up the scepter and worm eggs held by the person on the seat. They all looked at them enviously from the sidelines, and seemed to think that this matter was about to end.
But at this moment, Leo suddenly took the flintlock gun from his back, and before everyone realized what was going on, he shot the man on the seat in the head.
The flames erupting from the muzzle of the hand cannon mixed with a slightly twisted steel ball in rapid flight, hit the forehead of the person on the seat, and it was about to hit the person's head and smash it to pieces.
But a surprising scene appeared. The rapidly flying steel ball stopped several centimeters in front of the man's forehead, and was held in the air by an invisible force. The heat on the surface of the bullet caused some refraction of light, causing The opponent's forehead seemed to be shaking slightly.
Whether it was the loud sound of the flintlock cannon or the miraculous scene in front of them, all the people present felt something was wrong apart from being astonished, especially Sean and High Priest Deni, who were closest to the person on the seat, temporarily He forgot to reach for the thing he dreamed of, but retreated quickly, to the back and side of Leo.
"I'm curious, how do you know that I'm still alive?" Just when everyone was still puzzled by what happened, the person on the seat that was regarded as a dead body suddenly opened his eyes, and said A strange-sounding English, said to Leo.
"It's nothing, I just saw a corpse sitting here for hundreds of years, and it still looks like a normal person. It feels a bit strange, so I fired a shot and tried it. I didn't expect the effect to be good." Stuffing the flintlock cannon to supplement the consumption of the shot just now, he shrugged and said seemingly casually.
Although Leo acted relaxed, he was actually very nervous inside.
When he entered the hive, he didn't feel anything unusual, and the spiritual network didn't sense any problem.
But when he stood on the platform, or Nelson and Catherine behind him stepped onto the platform, the fake corpse on the chair at the first moment was just an ordinary corpse under the perception of his mental network, but the corpse inside the next moment His psychic power has been raised to a very powerful level, and in his mental network perception, it is like a small nuclear fusion reactor.
At that moment, Leo was very sure that there must be something wrong with this strange corpse with no change in appearance, so he shot him directly in the head without any hesitation.
"Oh! That's how it is." The man who controlled the steel ball of the flintlock gun landed in front of his eyes, looked at it, and said, "Is this the weapon that people use now? It's really a terrifying weapon."
"Who are you?" Nelson couldn't help asking in a deep voice.
The man looked at Nelson with a friendly smile on his face and said, "I'm Wilson Matthew, I should be your ancestor."
"Why are you still alive? Haven't you been sacrificed? And why hasn't your appearance changed a bit?" Xiao En, who was hiding behind Leo, couldn't help the horror in his heart, and shouted out of control.
"You should be a descendant of Little William, right?" Wilson Matthew looked at Sean and said, "Not only do you look very similar to him, but your timid and greedy character is also very similar to him."
I don't know if it was because Wilson Matthew's friendly tone eased the fear and doubts in everyone's hearts. Everyone relaxed involuntarily, and the tense and strange atmosphere around them also eased a lot.
However, at this moment, Leo raised the flintlock gun again without warning, and fired five shots at Wilson in a row, and the positions of the five shots were all different. The steel ball bullets shot at the throat, heart, lower body, hands and feet joints respectively. Five vital points flew away.
However, the result was the same as the first shot. When all the bullets were about to approach his body, they were blocked by an energy field composed of psionic energy and hovered in the air.
"I can already use psychic energy to arrange the shield. It should be a psychic user above level five." Seeing the psychic energy ripples around the bullet through his spiritual vision, Leo made an assessment of the opponent's strength in his heart.
Leo's attack again made everyone feel more shocked than before. They didn't expect that Leo would attack Wilson again when the atmosphere was gradually calming down and becoming more relaxed. If the first time was just an unexplained temptation, then now it is equivalent to completely tearing your face, telling the other party clearly of your malice, and there is no room for repayment.
Apparently, Wilson also didn't expect Leo to strike again, and to strike so fiercely and decisively.
Although he was not injured and all the bullets were blocked, he was still extremely angry, and the friendly expression on his face became ruthless.
"Leo, you're crazy! Why are you still attacking him?" Nelson first recovered from the shock and asked anxiously.
"Why can't you attack him?" Leo knew very well that the other party was using psychic energy to interfere with the spirits of the surrounding people, thereby producing a hypnotic effect, but he couldn't explain it to everyone, so he asked a question, and then looked at the other people around him. The person who showed a questioning expression said, "Didn't you realize that your emotions and thoughts are weird?"
As he spoke, he strengthened his tone, pointed to Wilson, and said, "A dead man who has been sacrificed according to legend is sitting in front of you alive, and his appearance has not changed at all. Don't you feel weird about such a strange thing? And this Don't you think it's strange that you have such a strong trust in him just after you said a few insignificant words?"
A series of questions made everyone wake up from the abnormal emotions quickly, and also realized that their emotions and behaviors were indeed a little abnormal, because just now they couldn't help but regard Wilson as their most trusted and closest person. People, want to go to help him.
Everyone who felt something was wrong stepped back for a certain distance, and looked at Wilson with great vigilance, as if there was some virus on Wilson, and he would be infected if he got close. And they all took out the weapons in their hands, held them tightly in their hands, and were ready to attack at any time.
However, Wilson's face became extremely ugly, and a pair of fierce eyes stared fiercely at Leo.
Originally, he could easily get what he wanted for so many years, but all of this was messed up by Leo's two attacks, which made him feel angry after waiting for more than three hundred years.
"Do you know what you did? You lowly reptile!" Now that he had been seen through, Wilson didn't hide himself anymore, and shouted loudly at Leo.
While yelling, a psionic shock wave similar to that of the High Priest of Deni rushed out of Wilson's body, and the control was very delicate, it did not attack other people, but only went towards Leo.
Leo had taken precautions a long time ago, and arranged all the spiritual nets in front of him, stacking them layer by layer to form a spiritual shield.
However, the spiritual shield in front of Leo only blocked the opponent's spiritual energy impact for two seconds, and a gorgeous colorful light erupted at the impact of the two invisible forces, following the spiritual shield like a piece of paper It seemed to be torn apart.
This psionic shock wave also hit Leo's body solidly, like a battering ram, directly knocked Leo out and landed on the bridge not far from the entrance.
"Damn it, what did you monster do?" Seeing Leo being sent flying, Jason raised the crossbow in his hand and pulled the trigger at Wilson without hesitation. After hearing a few swishing sounds, five Arrows floated in front of Wilson one by one, just like the steel balls before.
Jason's action seemed to be a signal, and the others instinctively raised their crossbows to attack Wilson, but all the arrows had no effect and were fixed in the air.
"The entrance! The entrance is gone." Seeing this scene, Sean instinctively wanted to turn around and run away, but when he turned around to look for the entrance he had just entered, he found that the entrance had disappeared, and the place where the original entrance had turned into a few bees. room.
When everyone heard the words, they couldn't help but look back. After seeing the entrance disappear, the expressions on their faces became extremely gloomy. When they looked at Wilson again, their expressions were a little more flustered and fearful.
"At first, I wanted to solve this matter more easily, but I didn't expect to do it myself." Wilson removed all the disguise, looked at Nelson and others like a spider looking at its prey, followed by the expression on his face. Dazed, his eyes fell behind everyone and he looked over, and said to himself: "An interesting reptile!"
"Ahem! Damn it hurts a bit!" At this moment, Leo's voice was like a shot in the arm, restoring everyone's low morale.
I saw Leo walking over from the stone bridge. There was no scar on his body, but his clothes were a little messy.
For some reason, he put the most powerful flintlock in his hand on his back, as if he was not ready to use it, and he did not pull out the king and queen from his waist, but took off the two Paneer guns The ax was in his hand.
His current approach is completely in accordance with the plan specially organized by the Earth Federation to deal with psykers above level 5, because for psykers who can already use the psychic shield, unless it is the kind that exceeds the psychic shield Defensive cannon-level weapons or spiritual weapons, otherwise it would be difficult for any long-range weapon to cause damage to a prepared psychic user above level five.
However, the strangest thing is that the psychic shield that can withstand cannon-level weapons is difficult to form a strong defense against melee weapons with psychic energy. Therefore, according to the analysis of the Federal Academy of Psychic Sciences, using melee weapons to attack psychic weapons above level 5 The winner has a 5% chance of winning.
Although this 5% is very small, it is already the biggest increase in the chances of winning for Leo now.
Leo, who walked back to the platform, motioned for everyone to disperse, and then said to Wilson, whose face became grim, "What should I call you?"
"Could you be fooled? Reptile, didn't I introduce myself just now?" Wilson didn't mind Leo's behavior of delaying time. In his opinion, these people in front of him were the prey that had been caught, and they would be ready at any time. It can be solved, he doesn't mind playing with these prey.
"No, you introduced it. Your name is Wilson Matthew, but I'm talking about another identity." Leo said, walking back and forth in front of Wilson with a tomahawk.
This time, there was a hint of surprise on Wilson's face, and he looked at Leo with a strange look, and said, "Who are you?"
Leo smiled and said, "I'm just an ordinary person who likes to think about things, King Yassin!"
As soon as Leo said this, everyone was stunned, because he called Wilson Matthew so surprising that people wanted to grab Leo's collar and yell at him, What the hell are you doing! Are you crazy?
However, Wilson's face unexpectedly showed surprise, but this kind of surprise was different from other people's surprise, as if the secret he thought was well hidden was easily exposed by others.
Wilson didn't deny it, turning Nelson and others who were still doubting whether Leo was crazy into wooden figures, all stunned, especially High Priest Deni and Catherine, whose faces were full of disbelief.
"How is it possible? How could you be King Yasin?" The High Priest of Deni, who has always worshiped King Yasin as a god in his heart, could not accept what happened before him. In his mind, King Yasin was a Nilgardian , is a slave, not a nobleman of the White Rose family of the Kingdom of England.
Wilson didn't pay attention to the questioning of High Priest Deni at all. His eyes were all focused on Leo, and he admitted Leo's speculation in a disguised form, and said, "How do you know?"
"A lot of small clues came together to get the answer." Leo naturally would not tell Wilson that all the answers were the results of his sub-brain system after sorting out the data, and the accuracy of the answer given by the sub-brain system Only less than 20%, even when Leo said it, he never thought that the answer would be true.
