The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

The holy mountain does not allow non-shamans to enter. This is a death rule. Even high-ranking fire-keepers cannot violate it. So after reaching the foot of the holy mountain, Carson Sanjes’s subordinates are responsible for the safety of the holy mountain. The armed shaman of the guard registered the identities of Leo and Sylvia, and led the two to detour a distance from a road formed by overlapping tree roots under the sacred mountain, and came to a tree house by the gem lake. in.

The location here is just across the lake from the garden where the banquet was yesterday, and the scenery is naturally very good, but it is not like an artificial beach where people can play on the opposite side of the lake, where there are only tree roots.

The roots of the trees extending from the sacred mountain not only combined into a tree house, but also continued to extend towards the lake and plunge deep into the bottom of the lake.

These tree roots are not only spread here due to growth reasons, but more importantly, these tree roots can draw water from the lake and continuously provide various water for the shaman living on the holy mountain.

According to legend, the water of the holy mountain can cure various diseases. Leo thought it was some kind of shaman's potion, like a wizard potion, but now Leo knows that when the roots of the tree draw water from the lake and send it to the mountain At the same time, while purifying the water, it also injects some special energy into the water, giving the water some extra effects.

This tree house was not built by the shamans of the southern sacred mountain specifically to control the roots of the trees in order to receive visitors, but for their own shaman practice. Although the various energies in Leo's body were suppressed to death, he Through the various supernormal perceptions of the body, I found that many people have already lived in these tree houses, and these people are all lying naked in a pool of tree tumors in the center of the tree house. Some vines were covered, and some vines even penetrated into those people's bodies, and those people didn't seem to care about it, but entered into a deeper level of consciousness as if they were asleep.

"This should be the Spirit Realm Tree House? I didn't expect it to be a real success." Although Sylvia did not see the inside of the house, she still recognized the origin of these houses from the unique shape of the house.

After receiving Sylvia's prompt, Leo also immediately found relevant information about these tree houses.

The spiritual tree house is a sacred object of spiritual practice unique to the holy mountain shaman. It is said that the spiritual tree can create a dream-like world, and through its roots, send the souls of people who practice shamanism into that dream world to practice. In that dream world, the shaman apprentice does not need to worry about the issue of the casting of shaman spells and the consumption of their own power. As long as the casting process of the shaman spell is completely correct, they can cast various shaman spells without restrictions.

This is very useful for those shaman apprentices who lack their own abilities. With this dream world, they can quickly become familiar with shaman's various skills and spells.

This kind of spiritual tree house also has some undesirable side effects, that is, when entering the dream state, the shaman apprentice can only rely on his own will to get out of the dream world. Once fully immersed in the false world, it is very likely that he will never be able to leave again , In the end, the consciousness is completely assimilated with the spiritual tree house, and the body becomes like a living being, and finally becomes the nutrients absorbed by the spiritual tree house.

Although Leo did not enter the tree houses to check with his own eyes, he still found through his extraordinary five senses that more than half of the shaman apprentices in these tree houses had stopped breathing.

This kind of spiritual tree house is not a product of the southern sacred mountain, but the northern sacred mountain, which is the product of the old sacred mountain. It was when the shamanism separated with the north and south of the tribe. At that time, the southern sacred mountain first sighted the big shaman. The main root of a spiritual tree house was then transplanted to the southern sacred mountain. At that time, this incident caused a lot of disturbance in the shamanism. The first big shaman of the southern sacred mountain even had to sacrifice himself for this matter. After that, this completely quelled the things that almost led to the Shamanism civil war.

As for the roots of the trees that have been transplanted to the southern sacred mountain, they have not been recovered, because both the shaman of the northern sacred mountain and the shaman of the southern sacred mountain believe that the roots of this section cannot survive, and now it seems that things have developed. Despite everyone's expectations, the roots of that section were not only in stock, but also had grown into a mature spiritual tree house.

"I remember the spiritual tree house in the picture album does not seem to be like this?" Sylvia said puzzledly at this time.

"It is indeed different." Leo gave an affirmative response, saying: "The spiritual tree house in the sacred mountain in the north has spiritual flowers, not here." With that, he looked at the person leading the way and added: "So in It is more difficult for the people who use the spiritual tree house to practice here than the people in the northern holy mountain to escape the dream created by the spiritual tree house, and naturally more people will die."

When Leo said this, Carson Sanjes's body shook involuntarily. Obviously Leo's words reminded him of some bad things, but he did not show his emotions. Still lead the way calmly.

Soon the three of them came to a tree house by the lake. This tree house was different from other tree houses around. Not only was the tree house extended out of the lake shore and suspended on the lake, but more importantly, the roof of the tree house. There is a spiritual flower growing on it.

Leading Leo and Sylvia outside the tree house, Carson Sanjas's men pointed towards the tree house, and then turned and left.

Leo and Sylvia looked at each other, then walked to the tree house, and saw Carson Sanjay sitting in the pool in the middle of the tree house. A large number of vines grew from the gaps in the surrounding tree roots. , Covering his body, some vines even stretched out their tentacles and plunged into Carson Sanjes's body, seeming to want to blend him into the roots of the tree.

"You shouldn't have said that just now." Although Carson Sanjes looked like a shaman in other tree houses and entered a dream, he just walked in when Leo and Sylvia He said abruptly, and then added: "Ruth's brother is also a shaman apprentice. He tried to use the spiritual tree house to break through the barrier on the realm, and finally fell into a dream and never got rid of it. ."

Although Carson Sanjes said these words seriously, it is obvious that Leo and Sylvia are not interested in the content of the dialogue. They each walked around in this small tree house. Feeling west, as if looking at something rare.

Carson Sanjes can be said to be the first time someone has been treated with this almost-ignoring behavior. An irritation is inevitable in his heart, but he still suppressed his emotions because he has more important things. To do.

So, he took a few deep breaths, and then calmly said to Leo: "I am looking for your Excellency here today, mainly to exchange knowledge of wizards with your Excellency. The only people in this world who have true wizardry knowledge are you and I, if we want to go further on the road of wizards, we need to communicate with each other and supplement each other's knowledge deficiencies."

Hearing Carson Sanjas’s words, Leo Liao looked at the other person deeply, with an inexplicable smile on his face, and then said: “I don’t mind exchanging knowledge with people, but I mind doing things for people for nothing. So what about the tower wizard books you promised?"

Carson Sanjes seemed to be very disdainful of Leo's behavior of asking for compensation, and said indifferently: "I have prepared things. As long as you are serious about exchanging knowledge with me, they will be given to you after the exchange. "

"Do you want to wait until after the exchange?" Leo frowned and said reluctantly: "How do I know if you will regret it afterwards?"

Leo’s question made Carson Sanjes as if he had received a great insult. He glared at Leo and said angrily: “I am the fire guard of the holy mountain, the true heir to the tower wizard.”

"I'm a fake tower wizard, the son of a blacksmith in the English Kingdom." Leo responded in the same tone, and the implication was beyond words.

Just when Carson Sanjes was about to be completely angered by Leo’s attitude, Sylvia stepped up to adjust the atmosphere and said, “I believe in the credibility and reputation of the holy mountain’s fire-keeper. Do things you regret afterwards."

Sylvia’s words made Carson Sanjes raised his head slightly, and looked at Leo with an inexplicable smile, as if to say you see, even your woman trusts my reputation and faith. What qualifications do you have to question?

Leo didn't say anything, he went straight to the pool and sat down, then took off his boots very casually, soaked his feet in the pool, and said, "What kind of wizarding knowledge do you want to exchange?"

Seeing Leo’s rude behavior, Carson Sanjes’s irritation that had calmed down again rushed up. He looked at Leo with a gloomy expression and said, “Is this what you people call civilization? Looks more vulgar than those slaves."

Leo shrugged, and didn't even mean to refute.

Seeing this, Carson Sanjes, who should have been even more furious, calmed down, stared at Leo coldly, and then turned to Sylvia and said, "Ms. Sylvia, wait a minute. The content of the exchange involved the secrets of the tower wizard, so..."

"Don't you think this is a superfluous act?" Leo smiled and said before the other party was finished, "If Shiny wants to know, I won't hide it. Rather than telling it again afterwards, it's better to do it now. Let her stay here and listen."

I don’t know if it’s because I figured it out, or because Leo had lost his temper. Carson Sanjay did not ask Sylvia to leave or talk other nonsense, but asked Leo directly. A question of using witchcraft, and also stated his understanding of this question.

After hearing the question, Leo didn't mess around anymore, but thought about it for a moment, and then said his understanding of the question, and what Carson Sangers had wrong in understanding the question.

After answering the questions, Leo also raised a question about the subspace plane. This question involved the wizard's circle in two places, one is the Black Castle Lighthouse, and the other is the underground of the Port of Vinaya. Several passages leading to the broken subspace plane.

Obviously, this question raised by Leo is far more profound than the question raised by Carson Sanjes just now. The question raised by Carson Sanjes just now is just the most common use of witchcraft. Said to be the basic problem of using witchcraft, but now Leo's problem has begun to involve the realm of gods.

It stands to reason that when Leo raised such a profound to extreme question, Carson Sanjes should feel that he was at a loss in the exchange of knowledge, but it turned out that he did not show any dissatisfaction, but was serious. He thought for a while, and then also said his answer.

However, compared to Leo’s answer just now, which has both theoretical knowledge and his own practical experience, Carson Sanjes’s answer is much more blunt, and many of the words have a feeling that the preface does not follow. It is as if some paragraphs were taken from some complete articles and put together as answers.

Although these answers are like suture monsters based on the script, they are very useful for Leo. At least there are many useful things in the content of these answers, and they answer some of the problems he encountered when studying the knowledge of the tower wizard. , And even some of the content is very coherent, connecting the fragmented tower wizard knowledge in his mind into a whole.

After discovering the benefits of exchanging knowledge, Leo's questions and answers with Carson Sanjes became a lot more formal, and he was no longer as casual as before.

Sylvia next to her is not standing there blankly. Although she is not a wizard, her blood-derived knowledge has the imprint of the abyssal dragon knowledge, which makes her far from the purely supernatural power application method. Beyond most of the extraordinary in this world, even Leo may not be able to compare with it.

The vast majority of Carson Sanjes’s questions are related to the use of witchcraft, such an extraordinary power. So Sylvia can also use analogy to deal with Carson Sanjes. Jace's question was answered differently from Leo's, and she was quickly integrated into the communication.

Time passed by in this kind of knowledge exchange. Whether it was Sylvia, Leo, or Carson Sanjes, there was no fatigue at all. From noon to night, from night to morning, Carson The questions raised by Sanjes gradually changed from the most basic witchcraft use to questions about the essence of witchcraft, and Leo’s question also leapfrogged the wizard’s tower, the unique witchcraft of the high tower, and the high tower wizard’s The wizarding circle, the training system of the tower wizard, etc. jumped back and forth, a little bit to fill in the gap in the knowledge of the tower wizard.

After Sylvia joined in, she also asked some questions about the potential stimulation of the bloodline, and these questions are often answered by Carson Sanjes. This is not because Leo does not understand these questions, but Leo had already discussed such issues with Sylvia.

As for Carson Sanjes, his understanding of these issues is not necessarily good, but he answers Sylvia’s questions from the knowledge of the wizards of the wilderness, which inspires Sylvia in the development of blood potential. Some new ideas.
