The Mysterious World Under Steampunk
Chapter 598 Troublemaker
The atmosphere in the streets of Pender Harbor suddenly became tense, making people feel puzzling. Many local residents did not understand what was going on, and they seemed very flustered. The originally orderly street order also became chaotic. If It wasn't for the gendarmes of the Revolutionary Army patrolling the streets, maybe someone would have started looting by fire.
For Leo, the current panic in the city is beneficial to him. He can predict that the revolutionary army is likely to impose martial law in the city in the future. Once the martial law begins, he will have to use other methods to enter the city.
I saw the cultist of the Mother of Montenegro serving as a high-level member of the Revolutionary Army. Obviously, the Revolutionary Army is no stranger to extraordinary people. It is difficult to be sure whether there is something in the hands of the Revolutionary Army that can detect the extraordinary. A device that uses extraordinary power.
In the materials he remembered, both the Orthodox church and the underground church had similar items, and the same might be true for the church of evil gods.
Because of the confusion, Leo entered the city without too much effort, and then naturally mixed into the crowd on the street, walking towards the Long Palm Street near the pier on the north side of the city.
Although Pender Harbor is not a large cargo port or a commercial wharf, it is a good summer resort. The cold air flowing from the northern ice sea will not spread into the Maris Kingdom because of the barrier of the Angar Mountains. Instead, it went south along the coastline until it reached the end of the Angar Mountains south of Pender Harbor before turning inland.
The originally icy and bitingly cold air flow converged in the vicinity of Pender Harbor and the extremely hot air flow from the great desert in the east of the Savile Kingdom. In the end, the temperature here became very comfortable, neither very hot nor very cool.
Every year during the hot summer period, some middle-class people with a little money and time in the Maris Kingdom will come to Pender Harbor exclusively, and most of these middle-class people will live in several large hotels on Long Palm Street. Buy a vacation home on Long Palm Street.
People who come on vacation like to live on Long Palm Street, because this street is right by the sea, and there is a very beautiful beach. The sand here is more delicate and soft than other places, and it will radiate even more under the setting sun. There is a faint golden light, so it is also called the golden beach.
Because of this, in the travel guide on the airship, the golden sandy beach of Pender Harbor was also specifically mentioned, and some precautions for travelers, living guidelines, etc. were introduced in detail, so that after Leo arrived at Pender Harbor, , you can find Long Palm Street directly without any additional digging.
However, after arriving at Long Palm Street, Leo encountered a problem, which was that he could not find No. 137, Long Palm Street.
On Long Palm Street, hotels and shops do not have house numbers, and the names of shops and hotels are directly used as house numbers. The only ones with house numbers are those who have built first-line holiday villas along the golden beach, but the problem is that Leo found Long Palm Street The villa does not have a number 137.
Originally, Leo thought it was because he was not familiar with the geography that he could not find No. 137, so he found a newsboy who was very familiar with the house number of this street on the street, and asked about the house number. From the newspaper boy, he learned that the house number of the entire Long Palm Street was only 136, not 137.
Leo didn't think that Sylvia gave a wrong address on purpose. He felt that this might be a test for the invitees of the party. Inviters are not eligible to join.
From the airship before, Leo knew that Pender Harbor is not a new port, but a very old port. It was originally a fishing village, and then it was transformed into a port with the support of the local lord, and with the changes in the political situation, The transformation of Pandle Port has never stopped. It was not until Pender Port was classified as a tourist port that this large-scale urban transformation was finally completed, and the main urban area was completely finalized at that time.
Since there is no No. 137 on Long Palm Street, there is only one possibility that this house number belongs to a building in the past, and now this number has been abolished in a certain urban reconstruction, so if you want to find relevant clues, you need to Only go to the local archives to check old town planning files and house number files.
After determining the target, Leo found the same newsboy and asked him to lead him to the local archives, but when the newsboy led the way, he provided him with some useful information.
"You mean that many people have gone to the archives recently?" Leo asked confirmingly.
The newspaper boy who led the way carefully pocketed the toll fee given by Leo in his pocket, and replied: "Yes sir, including you, I have already taken four people to the archives. Some of my companions have taken people to the archives once or twice recently." He paused, turned to look at Leo, and said, "However, you are among the few people I brought, The most normal one."
Leo asked with interest: "Are the other people who go to the archives looking abnormal?"
The newsboy curled his lips and said, "It's not because of their looks. Although their looks are not good-looking, they are still human beings. I have seen guys with weirder looks than them, such as Old Carter on Lower Long Beach Street..."
"Normal, abnormal!" Seeing that the newsboy was going off topic, Leo coughed lightly and reminded.
"Uh!" The newsboy also realized that he had broken the topic, and quickly stopped the long-winded words that were about to come out, returned to the topic, and said: "The abnormality of those people is not because of their appearance, but because of their eyes. Eyes..." Just at the beginning of the sentence, the newsboy didn't know what words to use to describe it. After hesitating for a moment, he finally squeezed out a sentence and said, "In short, that kind of eyes are very weird, so weird that people can't help but shiver."
Leo spoke out for him, "It's like the way you look at ants, right?"
"Yes, yes, that's it!" The newsboy nodded again and again, and couldn't help asking: "Have you seen those people?"
Leo didn't answer, but just smiled. He may not have seen those people mentioned by the newspaper boy, but he was no stranger to the superior eyes of the advanced life forms when they looked at ordinary people and biochemical people. When it came to this incident, he immediately recalled the not-so-good experience in the past.
At this moment, Leo can already be sure that the people mentioned by the newspaper boy should be the assistants who were invited by the witch to attend the party this time. Like Leo, they also thought that the number 137 is the number of the old city. Want to find clues in the archives.
Thinking of this, Leo asked the newsboy again: "Do you know where those people went after they left the file room?"
"I don't know about that." The newsboy shook his head and said, "Those guys make people feel very dangerous, no one dares to follow them."
Leo didn't continue to ask, and was soon led by the newsboy to the old archives in the city. While Leo handed over the rest of the traveling fee to the newsboy, he also used an improved demon hunter sub on the newsboy. Kexi Fayin, let the newsboy forget the content related to him in his memory.
The reason why Leo did this was not because he was worried that the newsboy would disclose his information to other Witches' Gathering participants, but because he didn't want news related to him to appear on the desk of the Revolutionary Army.
Because after the observation and testing just now, Leo can be sure that this newspaper boy, or the newsboys in the entire Pendel Harbor, and even the shoe shiners, coachmen and other low-level people are the eyes and ears of the revolutionary army to deal with spies.
If the newsboy's memory is not erased, then some information about his appearance and so on will fall into the hands of the revolutionary army, and as long as he appears in the city in the days to come, he will be monitored.
Leo did not enter the archives immediately, because according to common sense, if the revolutionary army knew that several outsiders went to the archives at the same time, they would definitely become suspicious, and they would conduct some searches in the archives. If they did not find the reason, they should The people in the archives will be replaced with people from the Revolutionary Army to facilitate surveillance.
Leo did not intend to clash with the members of the Revolutionary Army, nor did he intend to find clues under the surveillance of others, so when he was outside the archives, he opened his mental net to cover the entire archives, precisely Grasp the position of each archives staff, and then deduce the blind spots of these people when they walk, and then walk through the blind spots of these people like an invisible person, enter the archives database, and browse through various Documentation related to urban renewal.
However, Leo soon discovered that whether it was done by the Revolutionary Army or someone else deliberately made trouble, all the archives about urban renovation and house number changes were all messed up, so he wanted to find out the desired archives through normal means I'm afraid it will be difficult and will waste a lot of time.
Therefore, Leo did not intend to use normal means to search for these archives, but he directly turned on the spiritual vision, and combined the eye of reality and the power of devouring, and injected it into the spiritual vision. After he did this, the stored All the supernormal energy reactions that had existed in the room of the file in the past are clearly presented in his eyes, even though some of the energy reactions are already extremely subtle, there are still some supernormal energy factors remaining.
This is a method created by Leo when he was familiar with the use of the power of devouring on the ship, because he found that with the evolution of the power of devouring, the power of devouring became extremely sensitive to various supernormal energies, and he even It is suspected that its sensitivity even surpasses the psychic detection Skynet invented by the Earth Federation to find out psykers.
And after this sensitivity to supernormal energy combined with the spiritual vision skill with the power of the real eye, all supernormal energy reactions in the world cannot escape his eyes. It is one of the effects after use.
At this moment, although he has found a large number of supernormal energy factors, the matter is not over. He still needs to find the few clues he wants to find, but this is not difficult, because the archive room is not a place where everyone will come , so even if there are supernormal energy factors here, there will not be many, and the types are even rarer.
He quickly identified a few visitors who were clearly targeted for the files from the trend of several supernormal energy factors, and through the intersection points of these people's energy factors, he found more than a dozen files that these people had once crossed. file.
Leo pressed these files out, flipped through them quickly, and couldn't help but frown, because these files were the files of city reconstruction and house number changes he was looking for, but the problem was that none of these files were complete, and there were many files in them. The data were all torn up artificially.
"It's really annoying!" Leo frowned when he saw the useless file in his hand, feeling a little displeased, but he didn't feel distressed by it. After putting it down, continue to capture those supernormal energy factors through the spiritual vision, and then follow these supernormal energy factors out, leave the archives, and then walk towards Long Palm Street when you came go.
Although there are still pedestrians on the street at this moment, there are not many pedestrians. Most of the residents here have returned to their artificially safe places early because of the propaganda and warnings of the revolutionary army. A person like Ou rarely walked on the streets, so he naturally attracted the attention of the Revolutionary Army gendarmes patrolling the streets.
However, when these gendarmes stepped forward to ask Leo's identity, they were all stunned by Leo's seal of the witcher without exception. They let Leo leave without asking any questions.
However, when Leo used the Demon Hunter Seal to deal with these gendarmes, he didn't notice that a symbol hidden in the tattoo on the arms of these gendarmes was slowly fading and became different from the color of other tattoos around them.
At the same time, in the secret headquarters of the Revolutionary Army on the outskirts, several Revolutionary Army officers in a special department were discussing something, and among these officers were the two cultists whom Leo had seen before.
At this time, one of the officers suddenly sensed something, his face froze for a moment, then hesitated a little, and said: "Another extraordinary person was found, the location is on Heel Street, he should have been to the archives Already, shall we..."
Immediately someone retorted loudly: "You are crazy! Still investigate this matter, those witches themselves are not easy to mess with, and their followers and collaborators are also easy to mess with. The guys who died before are the warnings they gave. I Anyway, you won't get involved in this matter, you have to get involved yourself, don't involve us in it."
"But the bishop's reward..." the cultist officer said with some reluctance.
"Do you think you have the ability to get the reward from the bishop?" The person next to him looked at the greedy colleague with disdain and said, "And even if you got the reward from the bishop, do you think Can you sit firmly in that position? You know, there are many people staring at that position."
Hearing these words, no matter how greedy the cultist officer was, he couldn't resist the fear in his heart. In the end, he put the information he had just received behind him and stopped thinking about the reward that he coveted.
