The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"What is the originator?" Leo asked Tessa Moka after explaining the star devourer.

Tessa Moka didn't answer this time, but Sylvia said, "That's an evil god, and it was popular on the Minsk mainland for a while in the early days."

"Why have I never heard of this evil god?" Leo asked again.

"Because all the information related to the originator has been destroyed, only our witch group still retains a little information." Sylvia explained, and before Leo could continue to ask, she gave the information she knew about the originator. All the information has been stated.

It turns out that more than 2,000 years ago, the Minsk Continent and the Velen Continent had not yet established a formal connection. When only the peoples in the northern part of the two continents were connected by an ice bridge, the Minsk Continent except for the King of the Hill and the Lord of Life and Death, etc. In addition to the main church, there are also many small churches of the gods, and the church of the originator is one of them.

This church is not big, but it has a certain scale, and like other primitive religions, it also has rituals such as living sacrifices.

Later, the two continents established contact, the Orthodox Church was gradually established, and the Church of the True God also began to appear. Churches such as the King of the Hill and the Lord of All Things Birth and Death were successively included in the sequence of the True God Church of the Orthodox Church. The Church of the Originator was originally an Orthodox Church. The object of absorption by the Orthodox Church, but its teachings caused the Orthodox Church to classify it as a cult.

The original teaching of the Church of the Originator believes that the world was created by the Originator, and all things are also created by the Originator. Even the gods are also derived from the Originator. The Originator is the only god, and other so-called gods are servants of the gods.

Such a doctrine would naturally not be accepted by any other church. In the past, because there was no convener, although the Church of the King of the Hill and the Lord of the Birth and Death also hated the Church of the Originator, it would not start a religious war, but now Led by the Orthodox Church, all those who hated the Church of Originator and the Church of True God were called together, with unprecedented power, and naturally there was no need for the Church of Originator to continue to exist.

What's more interesting is that not only the Orthodox Church of the True God, but also other underground churches, the Evil God Church, are extremely disgusted with the Originator Church. After the Orthodox Church eliminated the apparent power of the Originator Church, these underground churches The church and the church of evil gods took action to solve the hidden power of the church of originators, and completely wiped out the church of originators from the world.

After listening to Sylvia's narration about the originator and its church, Leo was extremely surprised, because he had never seen a church that could offend the Church of True God and the Church of Evil God in the Velen World at the same time.

"Did the false truth originate from the originator?" Leo turned to Tessa Mocha and asked.

"Yes." Tessa Mocha nodded, and said, "Just now I found the original will of the originator from that piece of meat through the power of the root-seeking flower." Then, she turned her head and looked at Sylvie Ya, said: "And there are some secrets about the Orthodox Church."

"Don't look at me! I have already left the Orthodox Church." Sylvia said coldly.

"Have you already left?" Tessa Mocha was stunned for a moment, and then she continued to say without any worries: "I found in the original will of the originator that the Orthodox Church has been looking for the secrets of the gods. They captured and wiped out those The underground church and the church of evil gods, the purpose of eliminating the evil gods is to be able to discover the mysteries of the gods from these evil gods."

Sylvia shook her head and said: "Impossible! The members of the Orthodox Church are the most devout believers from various churches, and their every move is under the watchful eyes of the gods they believe in. If they have such blasphemous behavior, it would have been a long time ago perished in the wrath of the gods."

Tessa Moka smiled and said: "Don't forget, the gods haven't appeared for a long time, and don't forget that the founder of the Orthodox Church is the Tower Wizard."

Hearing Tessa Mocha's words, Leo couldn't help being taken aback, and confirmed: "You just said that the founder of the Orthodox Church is a tower wizard?"

"Of course." Tessa Mocha nodded affirmatively.

Sylvia retorted: "That's just a rumor, and there is no confirmed rumor."

Later, Sylvia explained to Leo why there was a legend that the founder of the Orthodox Church was a tower wizard.

It turned out that more than 40 years ago, an earthquake occurred in the holy cemetery of the Orthodox Church, and many saints’ tombs of the Orthodox Church were destroyed, including the three saints Langelus, Mosans and Pyrus who founded the Orthodox Church. tomb.

Therefore, after the earthquake, the Orthodox Church launched a series of restoration work, the most important of which was to restore the tombs of the three founding saints.

However, when repairing the tomb, they were surprised to find that there were a large number of items used by wizards in the tomb, and the three saints were not wearing the robes of any church, but the wizard robes of the tower wizards.

Therefore, rumors that the Orthodox Church was actually founded by the tower wizards also spread in the underground world.

Naturally, the Orthodox Church would not admit this rumor, and explained that this was actually done by the tower wizard after the death of the three saints, in order to humiliate the Orthodox Church.

"Do you believe this explanation?" Tessa Moka sat up from the ground, leaned against the wall beside her, and said to Sylvia, "Do you still remember the Forbidden Ring? It was first rumored that the Forbidden Ring was to deal with cultists Yes, it is specifically aimed at evil gods, but in fact, even the clergy of the Church of True God will still be affected by the forbidden ring, and this forbidden ring, which is clearly declared to be made by the gods, has been transformed by the wizard of the tower into a ring that is against all supernatural beings. Both are useful, and returned to the hands of the Orthodox Church, becoming the exclusive wonder of the Orthodox Church. Don’t you think this is too weird?”

Sylvia didn't answer, a thoughtful look appeared on her face, and the surroundings became quiet.

"Whether the Orthodox Church was founded by the tower wizard or not, it has nothing to do with us now. What we need to solve now is this wizard tower." Leo broke this quiet state and asked Tessa Moka: " What do you know besides knowing that the false truth comes from the Originator? Is there a way to deal with him?"

"No." Tessa Moka shook her head without thinking, and said, "If the original will of the originator stays in my consciousness for a longer time, maybe I can know more about the originator , find an easy way to solve this wizard tower."

"It's not necessary." Leo shook his head and said, "It's just good luck to save you this time. I may not be able to clean up the original will of the originator in your consciousness next time, as long as there is a little primitive will left in your consciousness." Will, then you will definitely be infected and eventually assimilated by him, don’t really think that the gods are not scary just because you have easily passed the danger this time.” He hesitated for a moment, then turned to Tessa Mocha and asked Said: "Can I eat the fruit of the root-seeking flower?"

"You're crazy!" Sylvia frowned and yelled at Leo, "You were telling Tessa not to underestimate the gods, but now..."

"I'm different from her." Leo looked at Sylvia confidently, and said, "The original will of the originator invaded her consciousness. For her, it was a life-and-death test. It's just a dream, and in my dream, even a god can't fight me." Then he asked Tessa Mocha, "Tell me, can I eat the fruit of the root-seeking flower?"

The reason why Leo was so confident was that he had successfully used his method of creating nightmare power in Tessa Moka's consciousness just now, turning himself into a complete body of the star-eating worm, and also as he said. As expected, he has the powerful ability that only a star-eating worm possesses. Even if that ability is only illusory, it will disappear once he leaves consciousness and dreams, but at that moment in consciousness, he is a real star-eating worm.

Although he doesn't know how powerful the originator is, no matter how powerful the originator is, compared to those Omega-level advanced life forms that have existed for countless years in the universe, he is obviously like a child, and even if he does not change into those supreme beings of the universe The existence of God, just becoming the outer gods he is very familiar with, such as the Stone Throne, the Fool of Chaos, and the Lord of Turbidity and Lightness, is enough to deal with the original will of the originator.

Although Leo is extremely confident, and Sylvia has great confidence in Leo's ability due to past experience, but when she thinks that Leo may face the original will of a powerful evil god, she will inevitably feel a little worried .

However, Sylvia didn't persuade Leo anymore, because she knew very well that Leo would never propose such a dangerous method unless he was absolutely sure, and she only needed to trust him.

Facing Leo's question, Tessa Mocha hesitated for a moment, looked at Sylvia, and seeing that she had no objection, she nodded and said, "It can be used, but the user must be very firm. of……"

Halfway through, she suddenly felt that there was no need to say more, because Leo's ability to enter her consciousness and help her solve the original will of the originator proved that Leo's control of the consciousness space was not under her, so the fruit of the root-seeking flower was produced The side effects of this will definitely not have any adverse effects on Leo.

Thinking of this, she nodded and said, "Yes, you can use it."

"Then get ready! Make a few more." Leo walked to the wall, dug out a large piece of flesh and blood from the wall, divided it into nine pieces, and handed it to Tessa Mocha.

Seeing that Leo actually wanted to make nine Root-seeking Flower fruits, Tessa Mocha couldn't help showing a little worry, but she still didn't say anything, took nine pieces of flesh and blood, and then took out nine Root-seeking flower seeds, Through the power of the witch, they were born, and let them devour the nine pieces of flesh and blood, and transformed them into nine fruits.

After receiving the fruits from Tessa Mocha, Leo lay on the ground and swallowed the nine fruits directly. Soon the main consciousness entered the consciousness space under the power of the root-seeking flower. At this time, his consciousness space The center was also shrouded in countless blood mist. The moment Leo's main consciousness appeared, these blood mist rushed towards him, tightly attached to his body, and continued to accumulate, gradually covering Leo's main consciousness. It turned into a blood man covered with a flesh shell.

At this time, the blood man's face began to fluctuate, and finally turned into a man with the obvious characteristics of the early Marisians. He first looked around blankly, and then seemed to think of something, and the blood mist on his body began. It turned into countless tiny tentacles, extending around, trying to occupy Leo's consciousness space.

However, before the blood man's tentacles touched the boundary of Leo's consciousness space, dozens of chains covered with mysterious runes and Turing roots appeared out of thin air around the blood man, binding him tightly. Binding them together, the runes and Turing radicals on these chains turned into thin threads, intertwined with all the tentacles, absorbing and merging, and the blood man also showed a painful expression at this moment.

The blood man seemed to know that the situation was not good, and tried to break away from Leo's main consciousness and escape from the shackles of the chains, but all this was useless, because the moment he had the idea of ​​breaking away, a belt appeared above his head. There is a stone throne with an ancient atmosphere, and a vague black figure sits on the throne.

When the stone throne appeared, the blood man instantly lost the power to resist, and could only let the chains absorb and assimilate it, swallowing it bit by bit, and as the blood man was swallowed, Leo's main consciousness gradually disappeared from the blood man emerged from the package.

However, there seems to be something wrong with Leo's situation at this moment, because his whole body seems to be in a state of ecstasy, his eyes are dull, and he feels like he is passively receiving something.

After all the blood mist was absorbed by the chains, Leo still hadn't recovered from that state, and seemed to be drawn by some kind, slowly drifted towards the stone throne above his head, and came to the stone throne , seems to be preparing to sit on the stone throne and merge with the black shadow above.

But just when Leo's attention was about to touch the stone throne, he suddenly heard it, and his originally dull eyes returned to normal, and looked vigilantly at the stone throne created by him with the power of nightmare.

It stands to reason that this stone throne was created by him with the power of nightmares to suppress the resistance of the primordial will of the originator, but what he did not expect was that the created stone throne was out of his control, suppressing the primordial will of the originator. In addition to his will, he also tried to assimilate him.

He didn't know what would happen after he finally sat on the stone throne and merged with the shadow, and whether his main consciousness would continue to exist, but he could be sure that the stone throne created by him should be in harmony with him. The stone throne seen is somehow related.

It seemed that Leo had woken up, and the stone throne gradually lost its shape, disappearing from Leo's consciousness space.

When the Stone Throne disappeared, Leo was always paying attention to all the changes in the consciousness space, but he knew nothing about the final whereabouts of the power that affected him just now. Put it aside for now and see if you can find the source of this power later.

Anyway, this power appeared because the power of nightmare created the stone throne. If necessary, he could repeatedly create the stone throne in the consciousness space, and draw out this power many times until he figured out the problem.
