The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Because the mouth was dry, Valianjing picked up the kettle on the table and prepared to pour a glass of water to drink, but the water did not pour out as expected. At this time, Valianjing realized that he had been talking from the beginning just now, face She couldn't help but show an embarrassed expression, and Leo, who was sorry to listen to him, said: "Sorry, Mr. Dodd, I have been here alone for almost a month, it's a bit lonely, okay It’s easy to see a living person, so there’s more to say!"

"It doesn't matter, I like listening to people talking." Leo, who obtained a lot of information from Valentin, blamed the other party, indicating that the other party didn't need to care.

Valianjing smiled and then asked curiously: "Will you recruit night watchmen this time?"

"No! Because this is only a temporary tour ceremony, I will only be responsible for surveying the growth of monsters in the forest." According to some information about the duties of the night watchman that the other party just revealed, Leo casually compiled a reason to connect Valian Beijing fooled in the past, lest Valianjing ask about something he didn't know.

Afterwards, he looked at the furnishings in the room again and found a stale book on the table. With a trace of surprise in his eyes, he pointed to the book. Shen Sheng asked, "Can you understand?"

"I've just learned Old French, and I don't understand the contents of these books very well." Valiang, without doubt, handed the books on the table to Leo with a pair of glasses and said.

Leo did not have any abnormal expression on his face. After receiving the books and glasses, he saw the hint of the wizard's magical object found in the frontal brain system, put on the glasses, and all the handwriting that was completely incomprehensible was read by the glasses. understood.

This book is written in Old French, and the content is very simple. It is about how to assemble and maintain the blade crossbow. The total content is only more than twenty pages. Because it is made of some kind of animal skin, it is a little thick.

Leo quickly read the whole content, and with the help of the auxiliary brain system, simulated a set of such blade crossbows in his mind. This set of machine crossbow is obviously modified from the early mechanical crossbow. It should have been adjusted several times, completely abandoning the range and accuracy of the crossbow, and changing it to a more powerful torsion spring to increase the blade in five. Lethality within ten meters.

After putting down the book in his hand, Leo signaled if he could look at the blade crossbow. Valianjing did not doubt that he had him, and he gave it to him very readily.

Leo took a look in his hand, then took off the blade, pulled the trigger, tried the ejection of the empty warehouse, and then said to Valentin: "You snapped the spring of the ejector too tight, although it can be Increase the strength of the catapult, but it is easy to cause unnecessary strain to the catapult. The catapult that could have been used five hundred times may be used only two or three hundred times for this reason."

"No wonder my machine crossbow always needs to change the catapult. This is the original reason." Valianjing took the weapon and checked it according to Leo's prompt, revealing a sudden enlightenment, and then modified it according to Leo's prompt. Looking at Leo with some surprise while holding the snap of the catapult circlip, he said: "Do you also like machine crossbows? I thought that night watchers like to use more elaborate, more powerful and convenient firearms."

Although this sentence does not have much special meaning, I heard Leo’s ears and learned a useful piece of information. He and Velen’s night watchmen use mechanical crossbows and cold weapons, and guns are supplementary. Unlike, the night watchmen here all use firearms, no one uses machine crossbows.

From this point, it is not difficult to see that there are a lot of materials for making special bullets here, so it can supply a large amount of consumption for the night watchman. And the power of the special bullets is also much stronger than that in Velen, at least more powerful than these crossbows, otherwise Valentin will not be so surprised when he sees Leo know how to maintain crossbows.

Leo casually fabricated an explanation, saying: "Guns are too precise and easily damaged during battle, so you need to learn as many other useless methods of use and maintenance as possible."

"It turns out that the night watchman needs to learn so much? I thought that the night watchman, besides melee weapons and firearms, only needed to be proficient in using spell-like spells." Valianjing inadvertently revealed another useful news.

This is not the first time the term spell-like has been heard. In the old man of Rembrandt, Leo has also heard this term many times, knowing that this is a supernatural power different from witchcraft.

It's just that there are not many detailed descriptions of spell-like spells in the books he has seen. Most of them only record that the spell-like spells are the special abilities possessed by the clan and those implanted with alien cells, just like Akner in the cage city. The power used by the high priests and priests of the Asian Church,

However, spell-like spells are more than just the ability to use psionic power. In fact, most of the most detailed spell-like spells in the books are mostly aberrational physical abilities, such as extraordinary vision, powerful strength, and so on. Although Valentin did not specify what the night watchman's magic spell was, Leo felt it should be of this kind.

Just when Leo wanted to extract some useful information from Valentin's mouth, a horn-like whistle suddenly came out, and it felt like a sonorous sound amplified a dozen times.

Hearing this voice, Leo thought what dream spirit appeared outside, but soon he knew from Valentin's happy expression on his face that he was wrong.

"Haha! Good luck today. Not only did I meet the night watchman, but also the person who delivered the supplies." Valiang jumped up from the chair with joy, and ran quickly to the stairs resting on one side of the wall. He landed on the skylight of the roof and quickly climbed up. He checked the situation outside with a periscope-like device installed on the skylight. After finding no danger, he opened the skylight and climbed to the roof.

Seeing this, Leo also climbed onto the roof. At the moment, Valentin was lighting several braziers placed on the roof, holding a torch, and shaking it back and forth at a certain frequency.

In the sky on the other side, a huge balloon suspended in the air slowly approached this side. Below the balloon was a small house-sized gondola, with two thick air pipes on both sides of the gondola connected to the steam engine in the gondola. , A stream of steam was ejected from the trachea, forming a propelling force to drive the entire balloon forward.

Soon the balloon came over the tombkeeper’s hut, and then saw a bundle of bundled goods drop from the gondola and fall to the center of the open space surrounded by the roof brazier. When all the goods were put down, hang There was another peculiar whistle on the basket, which slowly turned around and drove in the other direction.

Valentin quickly threw the bundled goods from the skylight into the house. He was too busy to have time to speak with Leo, as if he was worried about something appearing.

Sure enough, Valentin had just thrown half of the goods into the house, and Leo sensed that a large number of bird-like monsters had entered his spiritual network. This monster is only the size of a fist, with a large number, two pairs of wings, a human face with fangs, and a bird with three claws, but there is a straight thorn in the center of the claw.

"I think you should go down and stay first." Leo said to Valentin who was urgently carrying the goods.

Varianjing froze for a moment, and after hearing a burst of Pu Fan wings, his face changed greatly. He wanted Leo to hide with him in the house, but was rejected by Leo. , He hid back into the house himself, and then periscope to observe the situation outside, thinking that if something happened, he could take Leo back.

Just after Valentin had closed the skylight, he saw a group of dark clouds of human-faced strange birds swarming toward Leo, who was standing on the roof.

However, in the face of the strange bird group that rushed over, Leo seemed to be stupid and generally did nothing, but just stood on the spot until the strange bird group rushed in front of him, a powerful psionic wave rushed from Leo. Come out and spread out in a trumpet shape, instantly encapsulating all the strange birds in front of it.

These strange birds have unparalleled agility, dangerous fangs and claws, and are good at group attacks. Anyone who encounters them will be fatally dangerous, but their mental strength is too weak to be almost the same as those ordinary birds.

In the face of Leo’s psionic shock, all the bird’s spirits were directly washed away, and the fragile head burst like a bomb, and the remaining corpses fell to the ground or roof, followed by black fire. Burning completely, it turned into a plume of black smoke and merged into Leo's body.

Leo, who opened the personal data interface, watched the psionic energy that was just consumed by the psionic wave more than one hundred points slowly recover. The energy storage value of the chaotic stomach pouch also increased by more than twenty points, and a small smile appeared on his face. It is just that the daily value consumption of will and spirit has not been restored, and other talents and skills have not changed, which makes him feel a little disappointed.

"It seems that the strength of the dream spirit will also affect the absorption effect." Leo analyzed in his heart.

At this time, after watching Leo easily solve this strange bird group, Valianjing was surprised and envied. He thought that he had the opportunity to have such a powerful force in the past, but eventually gave up, and he couldn't help but his parents. He decided to feel complained, and he only had strong power in his eyes. He didn't expect that he might fail.

When Valentin opened the skylight, Leo also closed the personal data interface and was preparing to explain to Valentin the scene of absorbing black smoke just now, but found that Valentin did not have any unusual expressions except envy and worship. , As if I didn't see the amazing scene just now.

This made Leo wonder. The guess is either that everyone here can absorb this black smoke, or that Valiant has not seen this black smoke at all, and the probability of the former guess is almost zero.

Thinking of this, Leo asked tentatively: "Did you see the black smoke just now?"

"Dark smoke?" Valianjing, who had just climbed out, stopped and shrank back a little, then looked around in a panic, and said, "No! They cannot appear in the silver moon period?" "As I said, I asked Leo again: "Where did you see the black smoke? What shape?"

"In the forest over there." Leo knew from Valentin's words that he had not seen his absorbing dream spirit through the periscope, but he took the black smoke Leo said as another kind. thing.

So Leo casually pointed to a location, and then described the shape of the black smoke that the strange bird and Yubato had just transformed to see if he could get some useful information from Valentin's mouth.

Hearing Leo’s description, Valentin couldn’t help but show his doubts. Obviously the black smoke described by Leo was very different from the black smoke he knew. Although he felt a little offended, he still needed to ask Clearly, after all, the matter of black smoke is very important to them.

"Do you really see black smoke?" Valentin asked cautiously: "I don't doubt your eyesight, but the black smoke you said seems to..."

"Perhaps I was wrong." Leo did not let him go on, but stopped the topic in a polite way. He worried that if he went on, he might be in danger of being taken apart.

Having said that, Leo helped Valentin to transport the roofing materials back to the tombkeeper’s hut one by one, and then returned to the house again.

After closing the sunroof, Valentin greeted Leo to sit down and uncovered the materials wrapped up on the ground, and took out some special bread, dried fruits and other grains from inside ~www.readwn.com~ Placed one by one in the cabinet, took out some replacement mechanical parts and crossbow blades, and finally took out some clothes and books.

When Valentin sorted out the supplies, Leo picked up the pair of special glasses and put them on. He looked at the books sent to Valentin to relieve boredom, and found that most of these books were story books. .

What is interesting is that the stories recorded in these books all happened on the various continents of the Velon world. Even the names of the countries and regions have not been changed. It is just that the writers and the readers seem to regard the Velon world as a fictional world. .

Leo looked at a book that recorded the grievances and grudges of the two noble families in the Kingdom of England, and these two noble families also knew that Leo was the famous red and white rose.

Valianjing, who sorted out the materials on the side, was like an ordinary book fan. He came forward and said excitedly: "Do you also like this red and white rose? I am also the same, but it is a pity that Mies is too slow to write, It will take a few months to finish a book."

"What do you think of the Velon world written in this book?" Leo asked tentatively, seemingly at random.

"I just think that Mr. Mister's imagination is very rich, that is, it is too unreasonable to write." Valentin mentioned that his favorite book is very excited, and automatically entered the state of chatter, saying: "And don't say if there is any This kind of big lake called the ocean is just unreasonable because there is another kind of astronomical phenomenon called daytime in that world. When Mr. Mist described the daytime in his book, he mentioned that daytime is a silver moon called the sun. The temperature of this sun is tens of thousands of times that of the flame. If it is really like what he said, those who live in the world of Velon may have been burned alive long ago, how could it be alive and create that An incredible civilization."
