The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Is this the forbidden ring you made?" The old witches looked at the items Leo placed on the table and asked suspiciously.

It turned out that the Forbidden Ring made by Leo was completely different from the Forbidden Ring in their hands. It was a string of necklaces, and the surface of the necklace was dotted with a large number of twig patterns, making it look like a piece of exquisite jewelry, rather than a piece with magical effects. wizard wonders.

"Try it on, and you'll know if it's a forbidden ring." Leo simply responded.

The old witches looked at each other, and then one of them picked up the necklace and put it around his neck naturally.

When the necklace was put on the steps, the faces of the two old witches coincidentally showed surprise expressions, and then joy filled their faces, and tears flowed out uncontrollably, falling down the densely packed wrinkles on their faces. on clothes.

"Thank you, thank you!" All the old witches thanked Leo in unison.

"I've already given you the stuff, what about the reward?" Sylvia said from the side.

Hearing Sylvia's words, the faces of the old witches changed instantly, each of them looked extremely ugly as if they had eaten flies.

"What? Are you going to break the contract?" Sylvia frowned and said, "Then give us back the necklace!"

"Of course not, how could we break the contract?" The old witch quickly covered the necklace, then turned around and walked to a table, took out a box from it, dragged it in front of Sylvia, and said, "What do you want?" Everything is in there, and now our deal is done."

"Wait!" Sylvia stopped the old witches, and said, "It won't be complete until I tap the quantity."

After speaking, without looking at the very ugly faces of the old witches, he opened the box on the spot, and took out one by one to compare the contents on the list.

Soon a box of items was compared, and Sylvia said blankly: "The quantity is wrong, and five things are missing."

Speaking, Sylvia pointed to the names on the list.

Seeing that the matter was brought to light, the old witches didn't show any embarrassment, they just smiled, took the list with the agreement from Sylvia, looked at the content on it, and handed it back to Sylvia , Said: "We are getting old, and we can't remember the specific item name for a while. Fortunately, we found it. Now we will help you get it."

After finishing speaking, the old witches turned around and returned to their own rooms. After a while, they took out a few missing items and put them in the box.

"Now you can leave! We are a little tired and want to rest." The old witches quickly turned their faces and drove them away.

Sylvia smiled and closed the box, and walked out of the clubhouse with Leo.

After the two returned to the square, Sylvia boarded the airship and immediately gave the order to set sail.

It wasn't until the airship lifted off that she breathed a sigh of relief.

"What? Are you afraid that they will go back on their actions?" Seeing Sylvia's behavior, Leo, who hadn't spoken since taking out the forbidden ring, couldn't help asking with a smile.

"If it's something else, I'm sure I won't fall out with a pair of powerful witches and wizards for a little property." Before Sylvia could answer, Tessa Moka, who was drinking at the airship bar, answered for her: "But that The two old guys are not necessarily, they have done more outrageous things." Then, she moved to Sylvia's side and watched Sylvia take out the things in the box one by one Putting it on the table, when she saw a smooth silver box, she couldn't help but exclaimed: "You actually brought their silver box, they must be so heartbroken, and they will regret it later, you Let's see it's not over yet."

"Please sit down a bit. Even though you are allowed to leave with us, it does not mean that you and I have reconciled." Sylvia said with a cold sideways glance at Tessa Mocha.

Tessa Mocha shrugged, picked up her glass and returned to her seat.

Leo picked up the silver box that caused Tessa Mocha to exclaim, looked at it in front of his eyes, and then weighed it.

This silver box does not have any gaps. Judging from the weight, there should be a closed space inside, and the spiritual net cannot penetrate it. It feels somewhat similar to anti-magic metal. The only difference is that it can only block the extraordinary power that invades the inside. It does not have the ability to affect outward like anti-magic metal.

Afterwards, he squeezed the silver box hard. The box was extremely hard, and he couldn't break it even with his own strength. So he asked curiously, "Do you know what's inside this silver box?"

"I don't know." Sylvia shook her head directly and said.

Leo was stunned when he heard the words, and said with a smile, "Since you don't know what's in this silver box, why did you include it in the list?"

"Because those two old women valued this silver box too much." Sylvia explained: "It is said that this silver box was found by two old women from a very mysterious place when they were young. The companions around her are all dead, including their lovers. So she has always been concerned about this silver box, and wants to open the box to see what is inside the box, and wants to know how her companions and lovers died. Worth it."

"Hehe!" As soon as Sylvia's voice fell, Tessa Moka, who was listening aside, let out a sneer of disdain.

"What? Do you have any objections to what I said?" Sylvia said to Tessa Mocha extremely displeased.

Tessa Moka glanced at Sylvia and said, "I'm just laughing at you, taking the rumors as facts, and self-righteous, but I don't know that what you said is all false, those two old women deliberately said it to lie to you Such a simple person."

Sylvia snorted coldly and said, "Hmph! Why do you say that what I said is false? Do you know the true secret of this silver box?"

Tessa Mocha put down the wine glass in her hand, walked up to Leo, picked up the silver box in his hand, and then breathed out at the surface of the silver box.

As the hot air brushed over the surface of the box, the surface of the box immediately shone with bursts of faint light, and the light was connected together to form an extremely complicated Turing root.

"This is something from the tower!" After seeing the Turing root, Leo recognized the source of the Turing root at first glance, although he has not yet mastered the Turing root combined by the tower wizard However, they already have a lot of experience, and can easily tell from some characteristic traces whether a strange Turing root originates from the tower wizard.

"It seems that you are really a tower wizard." Seeing that Leo recognized the origin of the silver box at a glance, Tessa Mocha couldn't help being a little surprised, but thinking of the other party's other identity, she immediately let go.

"What about the tower wizard's things?" Sylvia took the silver box from Tessa Mocha at this time, inserted it between her and Leo, and said: "Although the tower wizard's things are very rare, but It should not be a rare thing for those two old women, how could they regret this silver box so much that they turned against us?"

Tessa Moka smiled and said: "There are two things you said right, the first is that this silver box was indeed taken out from a mysterious place, and the second is that all their companions died in the They were killed by those two old women, because they didn't want to share this silver box with other people, and the people they killed included theirs. Lovers. Think about it, they have paid so much for this box, and for so many years, no matter where they go, they have kept the box with them, how could they be willing to trade this box to you as a barter."

Hearing Tessa Mocha's words, Sylvia couldn't help showing a little doubt, and frowned, looking at the silver box in her hand.

The reason why she added the silver box when she made the request was mainly because of the various rumors about this silver box, which made her curious, wondering why the two old women still couldn't forget the silver box after so many years, From time to time, she would find someone to try to crack the secret of the silver box. She never imagined that the two old women would do those things for the silver box.

As Tessa Mocha said, the old witches sacrificed so much for this silver box, so they shouldn't treat this silver box as a trade item.

"Since the box is so important to them, why are they..." Sylvia stopped suddenly in the middle of her words, as if she understood why the two old witches would hand over the silver box to her so happily, and couldn't help cursing With a cry, he said, "Damn it, you've been fooled!"

After finishing speaking, she took out the previous list, and saw that the name of the silver box on the list had disappeared, and there was an empty piece. It seemed that the old witch had tampered with it when she took the list.

"Damn it, I'm going to fill it in again." Sylvia said angrily.

"It's useless." Tessa Moka shook her head and said, "The paper and ink used in this list are all provided by them. These two things must be very special. Even if you fill it with other ink, they must There is also a way to tell it apart, and you can even tell it in front of other people, making it hard for you to argue."

"Damn old guy!" Sylvia also knew that it would be useless to make up again, so she could only curse those two old and cunning witch sisters angrily.

Leo took a look at the list from Sylvia, and said: "Aren't they afraid that they will lose their things in the end and not know the secrets inside? Since the list in our hands has been erased, then There must be no silver box for the lists in their hands, I just need to not admit that the things are in my hands, right?"

"I think they should have thought of this too." Tessa Moka shook her head and said, "I just don't know what they will do? However, it can be seen from the fact that they handed over the box to you so reassuringly, they must I am absolutely sure that I can get the box back."

Leo smiled and said, "As long as I take out the contents of the box, it's useless for them to ask for the box back."

After speaking, he turned around and walked to the room with the box in hand.

"Is he so confident that he can break the restriction on the box?" Tessa Moka asked in a deep voice, watching Leo disappear at the end of the aisle.

Sylvia ignored her, and lowered her head and continued to sort out the things in the box. Tessa Mocha curled her lips in embarrassment, went to the bar and asked for a bottle of wine, then turned and went back to her room.

For the next two days, Leo took the silver box in the room and cracked it seriously, but the silver box was a bit weird, and every time Tessa Mocha needed to breathe on the surface of the box, the root of Turing on the box would appear, and Others couldn't breathe. Obviously, Tessa Mocha had mastered an unknown method to activate the silver box at the lightest level.

Sylvia wanted to learn this method, but was naturally rejected by Tessa Mocha. For this reason, Tessa Mocha and Leo stayed for two days, and breathed on the silver box when Leo needed it .

Because of this, Sylvia also brought her into the room for the past two days, and taunted Tessa Mocha from time to time.

Because it is flying against the wind, the flying speed of the airship is not very fast. In addition, it often needs to stop to replace the parts damaged by the weather, which makes the speed of travel more full. Originally, it only took two days to make a carriage. Dailisa, the capital of Daliyat that can be reached, and the airship only traveled half of the distance in two days, which is more than a bit slower than that to the south of the Minsk Mountains.

Fortunately, Leo and the others were not in a hurry, and the slow speed was within their acceptable range.

After two days, Leo copied all the Turing radicals on the surface of the silver box. Although the box was only slightly larger than the palm of his hand, the number of Turing radicals on the box was astonishing. It took three notebooks to record everything.

Although the number of Turing radicals is extremely large, the combination of Turing radicals is not complicated. Compared with the Turing radicals recorded on the items of the tower wizards that Leo had obtained before, it is obvious that the silver box The Turing radical of is simpler.

According to Leo, the maker of this silver box should not be regarded as a real tower wizard, but only an apprentice. What he learned is more basic, and this is also very beneficial to Leo. Because what Leo lacks now are these basic things.

It's just that he also didn't expect much from the items in the silver box. If he wanted to come to a wizard apprentice, no matter how precious the things in hand were, they might not be able to compare with the things in the hands of real tower wizards.

After recording all the Turing radicals, Leo began to officially crack the restriction on the silver box. This process was obviously much faster than recording the contents of the Turing radicals, and it only took one day In time, Leo had completely deciphered all the Turing radicals, and mastered the basic arrangement of these Turing radicals. For him, no matter what was in the silver box, he had already obtained his considered the most valuable.
