The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Can you please tell me what happened at that time?" The agent of the Ministry of Education, sitting on the chair opposite Leo, took out a pen and paper, and asked.

Two days have passed since I came back from Lake Beluk. In these two days, various inquiries have continued. Not only the soldiers who survived the Kraken and the special security guards have to be questioned, but even Leo and Langnus. People of this kind of identity can't avoid it.

It seems that Leo has been asked about the same thing for the fourth time. The first two times were in the temporary office of the urban special investigation team, and the other two were in Belmont Manor.

Leo did not resist such repeated inquiries, especially when he learned that they were in the water. Such a serious incident occurred on Lake Beluk. He understood that the Federal Investigation Team of Haute Thoughts.

The entire IRS anti-smuggling fleet has lost more than 90% of its ships and thousands of casualties. This does not include the fishermen, gangster docks, etc. on Lake Beluk. If all the missing persons add up, it is a full 10,000. Multiple people.

The war with the church coalition has not yet begun, and more than 10,000 people have been lost. Among them are thousands of outstanding soldiers and a fully woven fleet. If such a big matter is not investigated, I am afraid those people in power in the Otter Federation. Even sleeping can’t feel at ease, because they are worried that this is the method of those churches.

Ever since, the survivors of this disaster naturally became their only clues to the truth. Compared with people with special identities like Leo, Langenus, Major General Les and Solander, others Ordinary soldiers and special security personnel are really the focus of the entire investigation, especially the few sailor survivors who disappeared from other anti-smuggling ships but appeared on the Sea Monster inexplicably. Almost everyone believed that the mystery was solved. The key lies in these people, so the intensity of the interrogation is also placed there.

Foreigners like Leo, although it seems to be the point of suspicion, after understanding what happened, they all thought Leo was an outsider who was accidentally involved, plus Langnus gave Leo a guarantee. As well as the importance of Leo himself, the inquiry to him was soon over, and most of the following inquiries were only to confirm whether there was any missing information.

In addition, the Otter Federation’s attention to Leo has also increased to a level, not only because of the special steel and weapon research and development, but also because of the relationship between Langenus and him. In addition, the federal government has already dived into the water that day. Those in the population know some things about Leo that are different from ordinary people, such as strength and so on.

They don’t care too much about this, because they all know that there are people with special abilities in this world. It’s not uncommon for people like Leo to be powerful, and from their point of view, the threat is much smaller. .

Soon this questioning was finished as a routine matter. The enquiry agent of the Education Department packed up his things and said, "This is the last questioning. No one will bother you anymore."

Leo nodded, then deliberately showed a curious look, and asked: "Can you tell me the progress of the investigation? If it's not convenient, don't say it."

"There is no inconvenience, because so far there is still nothing," the agent of the Ministry of Education did not think much, and replied: "However, it is basically certain that it is not the work of an external force. Bachelor Langnus thinks it is likely to be The Emerald Island incident triggered some things left over from the religious wars that year, and other people also think it is very likely." He stopped for a while, and said: "Although it is not necessarily the work of external forces, the investigation team Assessing what hidden dangers may still exist in Beluk City, it is hoped that if Mr. Leo has nothing else here, he would better go to Trub Mountain as soon as possible to receive the items on the agreement, and by the way complete the other half of the agreement. "

Leo thought for a while and said, "Okay, I get it! Go back and tell them that after the smelter's integration and expansion of the management issues are resolved in these two days, I will set off with Sylvia to Trub Mountain. ."

The agent of the Education Department saw that he got the reply he wanted, with a smile on his face, and after saluting Leo, he turned and left the garden.

At this time, Sylvia walked over with a box in her hand and saw the back of the agent of the Ministry of Education leaving, she couldn't help frowning, and said, "Are they treating you as a suspect?"

Leo shook his head and explained: "This is the last inquiry. It should have nothing to do with me next, but we may have to leave early."

Sylvia sat next to Leo and said, "It's okay, there are too many troubles here, or if I leave early, I only need half a day to take care of the rest." With that, she put her hands in her hands. Handed it over and said: "I have used all the methods I can think of, and still can't destroy this thing. You said there is such a trace of immortal divinity in it. I think it may be true, maybe only after we become gods, Only then can this thing be completely destroyed."

Leo took the box, opened it and looked at the **** core, and then accidentally put it in his storage space.

After returning to the manor, Leo tried various methods to stimulate or destroy this **** core, but the results were all the same. This **** core always kept its original appearance and was not affected in any way.

After that, Sylvia also tried some methods of the abyss, and the result is still the same.

The divine core is very precious, and its immortal properties can be said to be a path to the gods, evolving into a high-level Omega. If the mystery can be solved, then Leo can be sure that he can evolve in a short time. To that life form that can only be looked up to in the past.

However, now this thing is like a stubborn stone at all. Leo will not give any response to any stimulation. In this way, this thing is worthless to him and can only be temporarily used as a collection. Put the product away and try to solve the mystery after finding the correct method in the future.

As for the so-called correct method, it is undoubtedly the research materials of those god-creating sects. Although Langenus said that those materials were all destroyed as taboo knowledge by the various churches, Leo would not fully believe it, and perhaps some of the materials would be destroyed. Destroyed, but regarding the immortal nature of God’s nucleus, he felt that those churches should still stay. After all, as long as they are humans, they will definitely have greed and selfishness. It is difficult for normal people to resist the temptation to become gods, so he does not believe Those churches will completely destroy the research data on the core of God.

"Are you sure that Langenus is Old Rembrandt?" Sylvia asked suddenly.

"Yes, I'm sure he is Old Rembrandt." Leo answered in the affirmative, but then he paused and said, "But he is not Old Rembrandt now."

Although Leo’s statement was a bit convoluted, Sylvia was able to understand what he meant, and he hesitated for a while, and said, "Should I meet him?"

"It depends on what you mean." Leo shrugged, then smiled again, and said: "However, it should be difficult for you to see him now, because he should have been strictly protected by the federal government. His status and importance in the federal government is probably much higher than I expected."

With that said, Leo couldn't help but think of the nervousness of the people on the shore when Langnus disembarked. At that time, those people took him away. Until today Leo has not seen him again, but just received him. On the letterhead sent by someone, it says that he has other things to do temporarily, and after a while, he will go to see him at the new manor in Leot Rubb Mountain.

It is not difficult to see from the seal of the letterhead that the letterhead was opened before it was sent. It is self-evident who the person who opened the letterhead was. Leo is not disgusted with this, but is happy to see it, because He can continue the relationship between Langenus and get some special treatment from the Haute Federation, such as shortening the inquiry time like this time.

In the next two days, Leo and Sylvia dealt with the smelter's affairs. Regarding the management personnel arrangement, they only proposed the basic conditions, and the specific management personnel were assigned by the federal government.

As for things like mergers and expansions, Sylvia has already formulated a complete plan and how to deal with problems when problems arise. If the managers can't do it well, then she really has to doubt the officials of the Otter Federation. Is there a problem with ability?

Belmont Manor was not sold. They left part of the servants hired here to maintain the daily life of the manor, while other servants were sent directly to the new manor in Trub Mountain, and by the way, directly in Beluk City. Some servants were hired to fill the vacancies.

The news that Leo and Sylvia were leaving spread in Beluk City. Although many people knew from other sources that the two would leave in the future, they did not expect it to be so soon.

Although Leo and Sylvia left Beiruk, the people in Beluk would not underestimate the influence of the two, especially some high-ranking dignitaries who learned that Leo and Sylvia had followed Lang. When the relationship between the Bachelor of Gnuth was extraordinary, they felt that their influence in the Otter Federation would not weaken at all, but would become stronger.

Therefore, in order to maintain the relationship between each other, some invitations for dinners, receptions and club activities were also sent to the two people’s tables during these two days, and the two selected only one important dinner and one club activity to participate in. At once, other invitations were declined.

On the third day, the two did not disturb anyone. They boarded the train to Josh County and left Beluk City. Almost on the day they left, the Federal Army’s logistics operations headquarters moved into Beluk City. Begin to prepare materials for the upcoming war.

Although the investigation of the Beluk Lake incident has not yet come up with a result, negative news related to it has begun to spread in foreign countries, and various churches call this a scourge, which has accelerated the change in the external situation. There is not much time for the Otter Federation, and all the plans have to be put into operation in advance.

Although the Beluk Lake incident caused some trouble, the result was not particularly bad. The only loss was the IRS’s anti-smuggling fleet. The Federal Army’s fleet did not suffer any damage and would not cause any follow-up plans. Trouble, and all obstacles on Lake Beluk have been cleared because of this incident, which will make the follow-up plan more smoothly.

Many low-level citizens who are sensitive to the situation have also felt the changes in the atmosphere of the country. The most significant one is that the number of trains transporting various military materials has increased a lot, which undoubtedly has compressed the operating space of civilian trains, although the speed of travel The same, but because the stop time of the station has increased, the time taken for the same distance is twice or even several times that of the past.

The train that Leo took was called Freedom Star. It is the fastest civilian train in the Haute Federation. If it departs from Beiruk at a normal speed, it will take about four days to reach Fort Josh, the capital of Josh County. , But the problem is that after they left Beiruk, the train got stuck at a city transit station next to Beluk. After that, they had to be stuck at a transit station in almost every large city for one to two days. The result was more than ten. When the sky fell, their train had just entered the territory of Josh County.

However, what makes people laugh and cry is that they just entered Josh County and got stuck in the small border town of Tap, because this is the station of a group army. This group army has begun to be deployed to the northern area for garrison. A large number of soldiers need to reach the train to go north. Civilian trains had to give way to military trains.

For Leo and Sylvia, although a lot of time was wasted on the road, they didn't care at all. On the contrary, they happily regarded this as a trip for two, enjoying a leisurely time every day. U U Reading www.uukanshu.com

However, this does not mean that Leo did not do anything. In fact, the Haute federal government does not want to see Leo waste precious time on the road. When the train is stuck at the station for the first time, The federal government sent a five-person assistant team to bring some materials needed by Leo to develop weapons, so that Leo could develop weapons on the road.

For Leo, the matter of developing weapons is very simple. In fact, he had several plans in his mind before he set off, but each set of plans deliberately left some very serious flaws. These flaws are almost all. It will increase the power of the weapon, but it will make the weapon very unstable, and it will be possible to detonate it just by transporting it.

By using this method, he avoided overfeeding the federal government at one time, and at the same time compressed the patience of the federal government a little bit, giving them the illusion that the weapon was not developed because the information provided was not enough, so as to get more. data of.

The effect of this method is very significant. He has already obtained almost two-thirds of the information about the weapon before he reaches Josh County, and he also knows the name of the weapon, a person who is very important to this world. It's weird, but it sounds very familiar to Leo by the name Botagret, also known as the lighthouse director.
