The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Is that the world tree of the Black Forest?" Sylvia, who had been in the Black Forest for so long, was not unfamiliar with the illusion produced by the leaves, and quickly gave a guess.

Leo nodded, dropped the leaves under him on the table, and said, "Basically, it is certain that the Trub Mountain hides a mysterious existence which has some connection with the world tree of the Black Forest, but this connection is not Very strong."

Sylvia picked up the leaves on the table again and found that the state just now was no longer aroused, so she put the leaves back in disappointment, and then curiously asked: "Can you find the mysterious existence through these leaves?"

Leo pondered for a moment, and said, "It might be possible in Vinylon, but it's almost impossible here, and Trub Mountain is too big,"

Although Trub Mountain is named after a mountain, its area is actually a small mountain range. This mountain range occupies half of Josh County and is very large. At the beginning of the establishment of the Otter Federation, there was After an army of old nobles hid in the Trub Mountain, it took the Federation nearly two decades to completely wipe out this army.

Said it was annihilation, in fact, the leader of that noble army got sick and died. The rest of the people thought there was no need to persevere anymore, so they left the hiding place and ran outside to surrender. Otherwise, the Otter Federation might still need dozens of them. Only in a few years can this army be completely wiped out.

While reviewing the information on Trub Mountain, Leo suddenly discovered a place that could not be said to be a coincidence. The surnames of the lumberjack families around Trub Mountain now seem to be the same as those of some leaders of the noble army.

Leo told Sylvia of this discovery, and Sylvia thought about it, and said: "In this way, these lumberjack families may really be the descendants of the noble army back then."

"My data records that after the surrender of the noble army, it was dispersed by the federal government to all parts of the Federation." Leo thought for a while and said: "If they still keep in touch with each other, and use the local forest farm many years later. The Lord’s chance of hiring lumberjacks from other places returned to Mount Trub..." He paused and said, "Purpose? What is the purpose of their coming to Mount Trub?"

Sylvia quickly answered, "It may be for the treasure left by the noble army. You must know that when the noble army fled into the Trub Mountain, they carried a lot of treasure, but they surrendered. At that time, those treasures were not brought out by them. Hasn’t Trub Mountain still circulated the legend of the treasures of the noble army?"

After hearing this, Leo shook his head and said: "It can't be a treasure. If they really have a treasure, it won't develop into the way they are now. They can buy the forest farm, manage it, and cut it down by themselves."

Sylvia retorted: "No, I think they found treasures, but those treasures are not the treasures they think, nor are they the treasures we think."

"You mean the Trub contract?" Leo said.

Sylvia closed her eyes for a moment, and said, "This Trub contract makes me feel familiar."

"Seems familiar?" Leo looked at Sylvia suspiciously.

Sylvia bluntly said: "Some are like the soul contract made by some disgusting guys in the abyss."

"Is it the Orochi Contract?" Leo quickly thought of the High-Rank Abyss Orochi who likes to sign various contracts with people from other worlds in the abyss.

"No, it's not them." Sylvia shook her head, and said, "They are guys who are obviously the abyss race but claim to be gods."

Leo was stunned, and soon found the relevant content from the memory of the Abyssal Serpent, and confirmed: "The Karita Demon Contract?"

Sylvia nodded.

As Sylvia said, for the upper races of the abyss, the Karitas are indeed a group of disgusting guys. They are obviously the upper races of the abyss, and the contract power they use is also the power of the abyss, but they always Think of themselves as gods and think that the value of their existence is to make all the abyss races agree with their thoughts, and they even set up a church-like organization for this, even if the abyss races that are willing to join are only themselves.

If the Karitas just closed the door and played by themselves, but they prefer to promote their thoughts, so when they see the intelligent creatures of the abyss, they always like to come forward to promote their gods. thought.

Because of the power problem, the ordinary abyss races did not dare to resist the Karita demon, and could only passively bear the propaganda of the Karita demon. Although many of the upper abyss races were stronger than the Karita demon in terms of strength, they were against the card. Rita Demon’s unparalleled movement speed is helpless, and the final result is not much better than ordinary Abyss races, so Karita Demon is definitely the most disgusting race recognized by the Abyss.

Although the Karita Demon has all kinds of disgusting behaviors, he never used his own power to force the Abyss Race to believe in their thoughts. Only if they were willing, they would use their power to create a Karita Demon. Contract, let the abyss race sign.

The Karita Demon Contract, like the Orochi Contract, is the most famous type of contract in the abyss. This type of contract is very powerful and has a characteristic. After the Karita Demon Contract is created, it is more than just a contract. , But an abyssal creature called a contract.

At the moment when the Karita demon contract is signed, the contracted creature will exist beside the contract signer in another way that the Karita demon does not know, supervising the contract signer to implement the terms of the contract.

If the contract signer can perform the terms of the contract perfectly, then the contract creature will give the contract signer corresponding benefits according to the conditions in the contract. It is said that the upper limit of this benefit is the limit of the abyss, which means that this kind of contract The binding force of creatures comes directly from the abyss itself.

If the contract signer tears up the terms in the contract, then the contract creature will impose corresponding punishments. At first, the punishment is only a warning, such as hurting the contract signer, etc., but if the contract signer ignores it, then the real punishment is Will come, and this punishment is to erase the existence of the contract signer family from the blood, and the process is invisible, as if fate is controlling the life and death of the contract signer family, which is why Sylvia will The death of the Winorin family and the so-called Trub contract feel so familiar.

Leo recalled the information about the creatures of the Karita Demon Contract, and asked: "If the signer of the Karita Demon Contract dies, what will happen to the contract creature?"

"This is not very clear." Sylvia also showed contemplation, and said after a while: "If they are in the abyss, they should return to the abyss, but if they are in other worlds, according to some upper races Guess they might evolve into the contract gods of that world."

"The **** of contract? This is in line with the idea of ​​the Karita Demon." Leo suddenly thought of something and said: "I remember that there was also a **** of contract in the world of Velen before, and then suddenly disappeared. Do you think that would be wrong? will be…"

"It's very likely." Sylvia said quite positively.

Leo said jokingly: "Then if we speculate based on this situation, there is a **** of contract in this world being gestated."

Sylvia repeated the same sentence: "It's also very possible."

Leo smiled, not commenting on this speculation, and then asked: "What did you find on the Venolin family residence?"

"Like your side, they were looking for the Winorin family’s Trump contract, and they were also not gaining anything. When I came back, they were discussing whether to demolish all the houses there and turn the whole ground over to see if it could Can’t find the hidden secret room of the Winorin family.” Sylvia paused after answering, and said: "Don’t you think their behavior is weird? The contract of the Winorin family should only be for the Winorin family. It's useful. What use is it if they get it?"

Leo was silent for a moment, and said, "Maybe it's not useful to them, but useful to their own contract."

Sylvia said with eloquence: "You mean these contracts can swallow each other?"

"No, it should be that the contract with the owner can swallow the contract without the owner, and the contract with the owner cannot swallow each other." Leo concluded: "As for the benefits of this, it is also easy to guess, nothing more than The harvest of the contract will be given back to the signatory. The greater the harvest of the contract, the greater the benefits the signatory will get. I remember the legend about the lumberjack family. In the beginning, those lumberjack families were only in good health, but now they have There are many rumors that those lumberjack families have mastered some magical powers, and these so-called magical powers may also be the benefits of swallowing contracts." He paused, and asked suspiciously, "Ka Does Rita Demon Contract have this ability?"

"No." Sylvia replied decisively, but added: "However, even the upper races of the Abyss have very little understanding of the Karita Demon Contract, especially the changes after the contract is formed because it is signing the contract. So the upper races of the abyss cannot understand the details further. Maybe the Karita Demon Contract operates in this way in the world where the signatory is located. It is necessary to know that they can swallow each other and then evolve. This way of evolution is very It smells of abyss."

Leo stood up and walked around the room, and said, "Do you think that if the so-called sacred deeds signed by the lumberjack families are really the Karita Demon Contract, then where will the Karita Demon Contract be now?"

Sylvia tapped her finger on the armrest of the sofa and slowly said, "The Karita Demon Contract is a contract creature, and an abyss creature. The abyss creature knows to avoid danger from the moment of birth, since it is because of Venolin. The family has violated an unknown contract clause and has to annihilate the Winorin family and become an ownerless contract. Then it must know that it will face the swallowing of other contracts, so it will definitely choose to escape or hide. From logging The Gong family has never left Trub Mountain to see it. Obviously these contracts must be restricted to the Trub Mountain range for some reason. The option to escape does not exist, and it can only hide, and according to the hiding of the abyssal creatures. Habits..." As she said, she suddenly stopped, as if thinking of something, she was stunned for a while, and then immediately said: "I know where the Karita Demon Contract of the Venolin family is."

And Leo also thought of something, and looked at Sylvia, and said: "I also know where the Karita Demon Contract is."

After speaking, he saw him open the spiritual net and carefully searched the inside and outside of the manor. An inexplicable smile soon appeared on his face, and he walked outside.

It didn't take long before Leo was holding a golden scroll with wings in his hand, and then placed it on the table in front of Sylvia.

"Where did you find it?" Sylvia asked as she picked up the scroll and looked at it.

"The dirt under the steps at the door." Leo patted the scarce dust on his body. Replied.

The appearance of this golden scroll is indeed very good, not to mention the golden texture and the pair of wings that are distinctive at first glance. The large number of mysterious symbols on the surface has already made people feel the extraordinary of this golden scroll. Up.

When Sylvia opened the scroll, a spiritual power that was as majestic as the gods instantly filled the entire study. Leo and Sylvia could vaguely hear some sacred chants of the sounds of nature in their ears, like It's like praising a certain god, and even they all have an illusion, as if there is a mysterious existence looking at them in the void.

It is no exaggeration to say that any ordinary person who sees this situation will instinctively think that this is a holy thing of a sacred existence. He has obtained a certain kind of enlightenment, and if he goes further, he may lose the ability to think completely.

However, the bewitching power of UU reading www.uukanshu.com obviously has no effect on Leo and Sylvia. In their opinion, this is more like a mosquito that keeps flying around your ears. People hate it.

"Hmph!" Sylvia snorted coldly, and slightly released the power of the abyssal dragon on her body.

The sacred phenomenon of the golden scroll disappears instantly as if encountering a natural enemy. The surface of the entire golden scroll is not as dazzling as before. Instead, it seems to be thrown somewhere for more than ten years. The surface is bleak and dull. There was even a crack in the place, and it felt like it might break in two at any time.

Sylvia looked at the scroll that had returned to normal, then looked at the inside of the scroll that had become blank, and suddenly said to Leo: "Are you interested in cultivating a **** to play with?"

Leo couldn't help but smile when he heard the words, and said, "Is it confirmed that it is the Karita Demon Contract?"

Sylvia nodded and said, "It's very difficult to get a scroll of the Karita Demon Contract that is still alive. Since this guy chose me as the protector like the lower abyss creature, then I can just test whether the legend is right. Really."

Leo thought for a while after listening, didn't say anything, just nodded in agreement.
