The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Although he felt that Dillaf was an extremely dangerous person, Leo had no intention of taking action to solve him. He felt that there was a chance to get to know him through Regal. After all, just a short conversation just now was not enough. Let him probe out the secret of the other party's evolution.

At noon, Sylvia left the garden villa accompanied by Fringilla Vigo. From Sylvia's expression, she seemed to have obtained what she wanted.

After taking back the weapons from those knights, Sylvia and Leo did not go back to the Knights' residence, but went to Fringilla Vigo's residence in Bauclair Town. Sylvia still had some The matter needs to be discussed with Fringilla, and Leo also needs to borrow the passage of Fringella's residence to enter the underground ruins.

Fringila also explored the ruins of the elven kingdom underground, but she didn't go deep into it. Although the possible elven treasures were also attractive to her, she was more rational and would definitely not use them for a little profit. Pay for your own life.

After arriving at Fringila's residence, Fringila directly led the two of them into her study on the first floor, and then did not shy away from the two of them, activated the mechanism and opened the passage under a table.

Following the three of them, they walked down together and came to an empty basement. There was only one well in the basement, and the mouth of the well was covered by an iron plate, which was locked by several iron chains.

Fringila summoned the key, took off the iron chain, and lifted the iron plate, revealing a hole that went straight down. There were also some ladders specially placed on the wall of the hole, but now these ladders have been damaged. Judging from the shape of the damage, it is not damaged by decay, but by people.

Leo didn't say too much nonsense, he took off all the armor and weapons of the abyss walker on his body, handed them to Sylvia, and then gave Sylvia a few words, and then jumped directly into the cave, the whole The person fell more than ten meters before landing.

After landing, Leo yelled at the top, telling them to close the entrance and exit again, and then walked towards the place he had planned in advance.

Although it was buried underground, it doesn't mean it's very narrow. Maybe it's because it was filled with powerful extraordinary power, or maybe it's because of the special structure of the building itself. The building is covered, and there are still a lot of passages that can be used here. Some of these passages are the porches of previous buildings, and some are the gaps of some collapsed houses. All in all, these passages are enough for a tall person like Leo to walk easily.

In addition, although this place is underground, it does not mean that it is pitch black and nothing can be seen here. In fact, not only a kind of fluorescent thing grows here, but also the stones used in these elf ruins emit a faint fluorescent light. This kind of fluorescence is not conspicuous when there is moonlight, fire and other light outside, but it is extraordinarily bright in a pitch-dark environment. Leo's vision is only based on the fluorescence without any extraordinary power. Can easily see the surrounding things.

Leo moved very fast, and the target he chose was a hall that hadn't completely collapsed. It was also the first station chosen by the previous explorers, because from there, four roads would separate, leading to the four parts of the underground ruins. In different places, three of the roads have been thoroughly explored, and the ends are all closed ruins, and from the information provided by Regil, the ruins at the end of the three roads should have become the lairs of mutant blood races.

Originally, if Dilaf didn't show up, Leo might go to the three ruins first to warm up with those mutated blood races, but now that he has agreed to Dilaf, he doesn't need to be troublesome, provided that the other party doesn't come to him first Trouble.

After walking for more than ten minutes through the passage formed by the gaps between the ruins of houses, Leo came to the hall.

After entering the hall, Leo didn't look at anything else at all, he just looked up at the top of the hall, and saw more than 20 monsters with fleshy wings hanging upside down on the top, and these monsters also came in Leo Shi Shi looked over at Leo, meeting Leo's gaze.

However, there was no conflict between the two. After glancing at Leo, the monsters withdrew their heads back into their wings, looking as if they were asleep, and had no intention of attacking Leo at all.

Leo could feel that the hearts of these monsters were full of bloodthirsty and violence. When they looked at him, their eyes seemed to be examining their prey, and they almost fell from the sky and attacked Leo. When attacking, they were stopped by an invisible force, and then they suppressed the desire to kill and curled themselves up.

Now these monsters are not sleeping, they are suppressing their killing instinct.

Leo knew that these mutated blood races were probably controlled by Dilaf, which also confirmed his previous guess that Dilaf did indeed control these mutated blood races, and he had some kind of connection with these mutated blood races, so he didn't need to Direct contact with these mutant blood races can also control them through the mind, and even through this spiritual connection, he can see what these mutant blood races see. Otherwise, he would not be able to find out that the person who came was Leo in such a timely manner. Stopped the follow-up actions of the mutated blood race.

Since those mutated blood races didn't do anything, it was natural for Leo to kill them, so he walked into the hall.

At this time, Leo saw more than a dozen mummified corpses lying in the corner of the hall. Judging from the clothes of these mummified corpses, they should come from the civilian area of ​​Bauclair. It seems that they should be the food captured by these mutated blood races.

Leo was not in a hurry to enter the unexplored passageway of the ruins, but walked towards the pile of mummies, and stretched out his hand to examine several of them carefully.

After his inspection, he found that not only the blood had been drained from the bodies of these mummies, but even the body fluids such as bone marrow had been drained, and the whole corpses were so dry that they could be used as firewood.

However, what is even more interesting is that there are some mutations on these mummies. It seems that after all the liquid in the body is drained, the body is undergoing some kind of mutation, but this mutation was interrupted later, and all the mummies died. Not because the bodily fluids were drained, but because their necks were broken.

"It's so weird!" Leo muttered while patting the dust on his hands after checking the mummy.

No wonder he felt so incredible, because the mummy was still alive after the spinal cord, brain, blood and other body fluids were completely taken away, and it was slowly mutating, but the mutation stopped because the neck was twisted. He also died completely. This situation completely violated the biological knowledge he had learned before.

He had also thought that some supernatural powers were responsible for the mutation of the mummy, but his mental net was not on the mummy, even in those mutated blood races, he did not find any supernatural power.

After discovering these mutated blood races, Leo has already checked the situation of these mutant blood races. He found that these mutant blood races can be said to have gone to an extreme. They seem to put all their energy on their own blood power. Completely gave up other supernatural powers, unlike Regil and Dilaff who also possessed supernatural powers of energy fluctuations.

In addition, the development of the blood power of the mutated blood race also went astray, and finally caused their bodies to completely undergo irreversible mutations, and this also gave Leo a warning invisibly. Development is more cautious.

After finding nothing useful on these mummies, Leo stood up and walked around the hall again. He found several items left by the predecessors, which should be left by other adventurers who explored the underground ruins. When they came down, they also saw two sets of bones. Judging from the condition of the bones, they should have died because of killing each other, and Leo also found a very exquisite piece of jewelry in the cracks between the stones under the bones.

This exquisite piece of jewelry seems to be made by an elf, and its style is very exquisite and luxurious. According to the relevant information collected by Leo during this period, it can be concluded that if the owner of this piece of jewelry does not lose the great nobleman of the elf kingdom, then Most likely the royal family of the Elven King.

Then Leo searched the torn clothes on the two skeletons, and soon found something about the identity of the skeletons.

While collecting information on the underground elf ruins, Leo also collected information on adventurers who had explored the ruins before. Among these adventurers who tried to make a fortune by exploring the ruins and finding treasures, there was an adventurer named Barrel Dent who was very Awesome, two-thirds of the map provided by Fringilla came from his exploration.

This wine barrel Dent is also the most hopeful person to explore the ruins of the underground elf kingdom. Unfortunately, after he went down to the ruins for the last time, he never came out again. Many people think that he died in the depths of the ruins , and there were many explorers who died with him, and one of the explorers was the youngest son of the former Grand Duke Toussaint. team.

One of the two sets of bones under Leo's feet is that of the Barrel Dent, because the Barrel Dent is a very devout follower of the goddess Melitelli, so he wears a lot of goddess ornaments on him, and one of them There are a large number of ornaments of the goddess Meliteli on the body of the skeleton.

It seems that this wine barrel Dent has actually explored the lower area of ​​the ruins, and returned to this initial camp, and can return to the ground after walking a certain distance, but it is a pity that he died here in the end.

As for why he died, Leo thinks it might have something to do with the elf jewelry in his hand? Either the survivors who came out with Barrel Dent wanted to snatch the elf ornaments and attacked Barrel Dent, or Barrel Dent wanted to monopolize the secrets and treasures he found in the underground elf ruins and attacked his companions.

Regardless of the reason, they all buried their bodies here in the end, and the people who came here in the future probably focused on the lower level of the elf ruins, ignored the corpses here, and naturally did not find these two corpses hidden. secret.

Although the body of the Barrel Dent was found, and he knew that the Barrel Dent had explored the lower ruins and found some relics of the Elf Kingdom there, Leo was not happy about it. , because his purpose of coming here is mainly to find a danger that is strong enough to stimulate his own blood power.

If the level of danger in the elf ruins is such that even an ordinary explorer can safely enter and exit, then even if he also found the elf's treasure this trip, it would be a waste of time.

After thinking about it for a while, Leo decided to continue walking. Now that he has come, he will go down and have a look, maybe he can meet some surprises.

So, following the instructions of the map in his memory, he found the passage leading to the deeper part of the ruins, and walked in directly.

After Leo entered the tunnel, those mutated blood races stretched out their bodies from the curled up state, and then stared at the entrance of the tunnel with pairs of blood-red eyes. It seemed that Dilaf's control had disappeared at this moment, and their instincts were driving them They chased after them to hunt their prey, but at the same time they became hesitant due to some unknown reasons. In the end, they didn't catch up, but continued to hang on the top of the hall, enduring their killing instinct.

The passage leading to the ruins below is not very easy, because some places even collapsed for some special reasons, so Leo had to open up a new road. Fortunately, the collapsed places are not very thick, and Leo will be able to quickly Re-open.

About an hour later, Leo had come to the end of this passage, and this end was an underground cavity that was bigger than the previous hall. Judging from the situation here, it should have been a garden before, but with The whole city fell into it, but there was a special power in this garden to protect it, and the falling stones and soil were taken into the air, and finally formed a dome.

When entering this underground cavity, Leo immediately felt the powerful interference energy around him. This interference energy can not only interfere with the spiritual network, but even interfere with the psionic energy and any other extraordinary power in his body. The difference is only the strength of the interference effect.

Among all the supernatural powers, psionic power has received the least interference, and all the imprints of the gods have been most disturbed, and the imprints of the gods such as the web weaver's imprint have almost been completely abolished.

"Is this the anti-magic force field?" Leo quickly identified the details of this force.

Leo knew from Fringilla that there is a very magical metal in this world called anti-magic metal. This metal can keep the mana of all warlocks. After being on the ground, it is impossible to cast any spells, and the anti-magic force field is a special magic circle arranged through this metal.
