The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

I saw a monster that was very similar to a human at this time, with a human face, except that his skin was covered with scales, his blood-red eyes looked like rubies, a pile of long spiral horns on his forehead, and two pairs of ears It was as sharp as a knife, and when it opened its mouth to roar, it revealed rows of sharp fangs.

Although this monster's body is slender, it looks like a person who has been hungry for more than ten days, with only a layer of skin and bones left, but its strength is extremely powerful, and the defensive power of its scales makes it able to resist Sylvie. Ya and Geralt's sword.

However, it can only barely block it. Every time it wants to counterattack, Sylvia's very regular knight's shield attack easily interrupts its action, and it is blessed by the fairy of the lake. Both the shield and the long sword can cause additional damage to it, such as dispelling the extraordinary power on it.

If Sylvia is a towering and immovable wall, then Geralt is an annoying seal. Geralt's long sword has been sprinkled with special potions that can corrode its body from tiny wounds, and Geralt Te is never greedy for merit. After each attack, he will move quickly to avoid the attack, and then continue to attack the weak points of its body.

The monster, which was completely passive and beaten, had no chance of fighting back. After Geralt inadvertently set eyes on one of its vital parts, it let out a pained grunt, and the movements of its hands also slowed down. Sylvia immediately Seizing the opportunity, he rushed to the top and fell in front of the monster, and slapped it hard on the head with the knight shield in his hand, making it dizzy and shaking, unable to stand up.

And then Sylvia grabbed its head, and then a witch's power spread out from her, bound it like a rope, twisting and crushing its body from the spine to the limbs and joints .

Although the monster did not die, it was worse than death at this moment, because its whole body was twisted together like a twist, and as Sylvia released the power of the witch, it fell to the ground, only like a worm Same wiggle.

Leo's performance just now has shocked everyone, but now Sylvia's performance is a big surprise, including Fringilla who has become a best friend with Sylvia.

For a long time, Sylvia has shown everyone that she is a regular knight, including forming a knight order and formulating the rules of the knight order. Many people even think that Sylvia was a high-level priest of a certain church before, because she The establishment of the Church of the Fairy in the Lake is so perfect that it can be regarded as a full-scale version of almost all religions in the world. If it is not for the priests, no one will understand these church knowledge at all.

Therefore, in this case, most people guessed that Sylvia might be a church knight, and judging from her proficiency in forming a knight order, she was more likely to be the leader of a church knight order.

But now seeing Sylvia's witch power, everyone knows that they are wrong. This is not a knight, he is clearly a powerful warlock, just relying on mana, without using any spells, will be a powerful The monster from another world has been subdued, and such a powerful warlock is a top existence even in an organization like the sorceress assembly hall.

From a knight to a spellcaster, the contrast caused by this sudden transformation made everyone feel as incredible as a leopard suddenly turned into an eagle and flew away in front of them.

However, Sylvia completely ignored the surprised eyes of the people around her, and her mind was all on the power of the witch that had been withdrawn from her body.

She clearly felt that there seemed to be some unknown things in her witch power. This kind of thing should be extracted from this monster by the witch power, and she didn't feel any discomfort, but felt very comfortable , It's like drinking a bottle of spiritual potion specially prepared by Leo.

This feeling quickly made her realize that the monster under her feet must have come from the abyss, because it was recorded in the memory fragments of the abyss dragon obtained when her blood was fully activated. It seems that all living things in the abyss need to devour each other to be able to Evolved, and devoured feels like she feels now.

"Close!" Alto suddenly shouted loudly at this time, and then saw him pull out the magic wand in his hand from the pattern on the ground, and a flash of energy caused by magic appeared in front of everyone. Lost sight.

Not far away, Leo had already closed his eyes after receiving Alto's reminder. Although he couldn't see anything, his mental network still firmly grasped the surrounding movements. The abyss sword in his hand quickly swung He went out, and easily split a few monsters that came out when the portal was about to disappear.

When the portal was completely closed, no monsters came out again, and everything returned to calm, except for the corpses of monsters on the ground and the bloody air around them.

Leo used spiritual energy to strip off the blood, minced meat and other dirt on his body, gathered them into a small ball, and threw it on the ground, then stepped on the corpses all over the ground, walked towards Fringilla, and said: "These You have to dispose of the corpse as soon as possible, otherwise it will be worthless if it breaks."

"Damn it! My garden!" Just now, because she was in a tense mood all the time and was on guard against possible attacks around her, Fringila didn't pay attention to the condition of the garden at all, but at this moment, she realized her own The garden has been completely destroyed, with corpses all over the ground and blood flowing everywhere, turning her originally beautiful garden into a slaughterhouse.

Although she felt heartbroken about the state of the garden at the moment, Fringilla's movements were not slow, because she didn't need Leo's reminder, and she was also very aware of some special parts of these monsters' bodies that could be used to make materials. In the case of special preservation, it is difficult to preserve for a long time, and the quality of preservation will vary greatly if the preservation is slow, and the price will also be different.

Therefore, she had found several daring butchers waiting in the manor villa in advance, and now that the battle was over, she immediately found those butchers and dissected the corpses of these monsters according to her instructions.

Although these butchers were bold, they were only compared to ordinary people. Now that they saw so many monster corpses piled up together, they were so frightened that their feet became weak and they almost sat on the ground.

However, after Fringila promised a lot of money, they immediately flew back with the courage that had already flown away, each of them became more energetic, took pictures of a monster corpse, and began to dissect it according to the method Fringila instructed stand up.

However, I don't know if there was a mistake in Shi Fulingira's method, or it was the first time these butchers dissected monsters. Devringira only hops.

Seeing this situation, both Geralt and Regil came over to help. Regir himself has dissected monsters in his knowledge, and he has also had a lot of hands-on experience, which is much better than Fringilla. The devil is an expert in dissecting monsters and harvesting materials. Under their guidance, the butchers quickly entered the state, making fewer mistakes, and putting the harvested materials one by one into the box prepared by Fulingira.

The others all avoided because of the thick bloody smell here, but soon they and Fringilla came to the humanoid monster that was twisted into a hemp rope but was still alive.

After the battle just now, Leo came to the monster, checked the monster's situation carefully, and also heard Sylvia mention that her witch power was drawn from the monster to swallow an unknown force.

Although the monster was beaten so badly, it still remained awake. Looking at Leo and Sylvia, it let out harsh roars towards them.

"Will it bite?" Angulane came over at this time and asked Leo.

"It?" Leo looked at Angulane and said, "You used the wrong name. It should be him. He is wise."

Leo spoke, ignoring the surprised Angulan and the others, squatting down, staring at the monster in front of him, and said, "Let me see what knowledge and secrets you have in your mind."

As he spoke, Leo asked the people around him to step back, and then stretched out his hand to press on the monster's head. Even though the monster swung wildly, he couldn't break free from his palm, as if his palm had already stuck to his. Same on top of head.

Then Leo began to use a method of forcibly extracting memory that he learned from the abyss snake.

His palm instantly became as black as ink, and then a puff of black smoke came out of his palm, and penetrated into the monster's brain from the monster's seven orifices, and soon took over the monster's brain, and searched his brain. memory.

The people around looked at the spell Leo cast in surprise. Although they knew from Geralt that Leo was not only a knight, but also a mage, they all thought that Leo was a good mage. His spells are also upright, but now the spells cast by Leo look very evil.

Create a puff of black smoke, drill into the monster's brain, and when searching for memories in the monster's brain, it caused extreme pain to the monster. It can be seen from the monster's incessant howling of pain and the completely distorted expression The monster was definitely suffering extreme pain at the moment, which made everyone shudder, and couldn't help but backed up a few steps, avoiding Leo from a distance, and even looked at Leo with fear.

And Leo didn't pay attention to the surrounding situation, he concentrated on receiving the monster's memory fragments, and those memory fragments were filled with information about the abyss, making the memory database related to the abyss more complete.

However, when Leo was about to find out the deeper mystery of the abyss from the monster's memory fragments, he suddenly felt extremely dangerous. He quickly cut off the power connection with the monster's body, and quickly got up and took a few steps back.

Just after he took a few steps back, the monster's body burned instantly, and the burning flame was black. Before everyone could see the details of the black flame, the flame had already been extinguished, and the monster was turned into ashes.

"What happened just now?" Sylvia turned to Leo and asked.

"Backlashed by the abyss!" Leo simply responded, but he didn't mention the danger hidden in it. If he hadn't cut off the power in time, the fire of sin from the abyss would have entered his body along with the power , when the time comes, even if he does not die, he may be seriously injured.

"Be careful next time, we have plenty of opportunities, don't take risks." Sylvia said with great concern.

"Yeah." Leo nodded, walked to the chair in the garden and sat down, with his eyes slightly closed, it looked like he was too tired from the battle just now and needed to rest, but in fact he was carefully sorting out the things he had just obtained. Monster memory, clean up the unnecessary ones, leaving only those related to the abyss.

However, Leo didn't know that as he sorted out the information of the abyss in his memory over and over again, a trace of abyss power was generated in his body out of thin air. This power did not come from the outside, but was generated by Leo himself , as if when he was viewing the information of the abyss, he was also connected with the abyss.

If the power of the abyss is generated in other people's bodies, it will only get worse and worse. The power of the abyss will continue to devour his strength, then grow stronger, and finally pull that person into the abyss.

But Leo was different. After the power of the abyss was generated, the crystalline serpent in his arm spontaneously surged out a force as if it had seen its prey, capturing the power of the abyss in an instant, swallowing it, and merging into it. To the eyeball of the abyss serpent.

Leo didn't know about this at all. He was completely silent in the knowledge of the abyss at the moment. As he learned more about the abyss, he felt that he had heard about the abyss before, but he couldn't remember it. I heard it there, and I don't remember what I heard, but there is an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

After carefully recalling it several times without results, Leo did not dwell on this issue. Maybe he can't remember it now, but as he collects more information about the abyss, then he may remember it and cause a sense of familiarity. of those things.

Leo's consciousness returned to reality from memory sorting. He saw monster corpses all over the floor, which hadn't been sorted out yet. Although his weather slowed down the rate of deterioration of the corpses a lot, some special materials did not The temperature of the weather will slow down the rate of decay, so he stood up, walked to a corpse, and began to dissect it quickly.

Seeing that even Leo was making a move, it was natural for the others to stand aside and watch. They walked into the bloody garden one after another, disposing of the corpses in a hurry, even if it was Angulan, Milva, etc. People who are very suitable for hands-on work are also responsible for transporting the decomposed materials to the side, piling them up, and waiting for the materials to be collected and processed together.

In this way, before dark, all the monster corpses were processed. Except for a very small part of the materials that were corrupted and could no longer be used, most of the other materials were only a little lower in quality.
