The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

For the residents of Dashu Town, the mayor’s curse is definitely a major event in the town in the past few decades. Because the curse is only aimed at the mayor and has no effect on the residents, they do not have much fear in their hearts, more It's curious.

Especially in the several teams of church personnel and the investigation team of the Kingdom of Teresa did not find any useful clues, in the past few months, the progress of the investigation of the entire incident was almost zero, and the residents of Dashu Town cursed the mayor. The curiosity and concern of the incident gradually turned into a mentality of watching the excitement, and even the tavern owner in the town opened a handicap for this incident. What is interesting is that most people are betting on the three people sent by the Kingdom of Teresa. The investigation team will not be able to resolve the incident before the end of the mission time.

However, to the disappointment of these gamblers, the mayor’s curse incident was investigated when the investigative team’s mission time was less than three days. Although the curse was still not caught, the source of the curse had been found. After it came out, I waited for people from the church to purify the source of the curse.

After they inquired about the more detailed investigation details of the Mayor’s Curse incident, they were all dumbfounded, because this result was completely unexpected. For example, Jason, the first to die by the curse after more than ten years with them The mayor turned out to be a fake, the real mayor had already died before he took office, and the source of the subsequent mayor's curse turned out to be the bones of mayor Jason and the traditional rituals in their town.

At the beginning, the townspeople felt that the results of this investigation were entirely the three-person investigation team sent by the Kingdom of Teresa who made up some investigations in order to complete the task. After all, Mayor Jason’s contribution to the entire Dashu Town is obvious to all. He is also the mayor who is most grateful and respected by the residents of Dashu Town. These findings of the investigation team are undoubtedly desecrating the reputation of this good mayor in their hearts.

　　 For this reason, some good deeds who had placed big bets secretly encouraged the villagers to gather outside the barracks of the mercenary group, clamoring for the people of the investigation team to give the town residents an account and overthrow the investigation conclusions that had been made.

It’s just that the farce ended after only one day, because the investigative team’s findings have been approved by more than a dozen True God churches, including the Church of Justice, who participated in the mayor’s curse before, and the churches have also sent them. The senior clergy came and set about solving the source of the curse.

Therefore, the content of the conversation the previous day was that the respected former mayor was wronged after his death, and the next day became the suspicious performance of the mayor over the past ten years, and whether the fake mayor was in Dashu Town. What kind of heretical activities have been carried out within and so on.

Some caravans that were temporarily unable to leave due to the heavy snow on the mountain were also curious about the drama of the mayor’s curse. They ran to the tavern to inquire about the fake mayor’s events to satisfy their curiosity. Heart or reserve for future talks when chatting with others.

Just in the tavern, there were talks about the fake mayor’s past and the so-called weird behaviors. In the corner of the tavern, a man wearing the traditional hunting costume of the Kingdom of Teresa with an eagle-beaked cocked hat on his head The young man drank the wine on his own, no one dared to bother him, and even because of this, there was a vacant place around him.

This young man is not a special task, but simply gives people a feeling of irritation. The cause of this feeling is not only the strange-looking weapons on his body, nor the special treatment under his feet. The head of the monster, more of his own temperament, makes anyone who sees him think of cold-blooded animals such as vipers at the first time, and even some ordinary people will involuntarily produce people who are too close to this person and will be killed by this person. illusion.

Just when the young man almost finished drinking a bottle of honey wine, a middle-aged man dressed as a hunter hurriedly walked in from outside the tavern, then quickly scanned the inside of the tavern, and walked quickly after finding the location of the young man. walk over.

"Master Sheldon, I have already found out." After the middle-aged man came to the young man, he immediately lowered his body and reported respectfully: "The reason why the three members of the investigation team were able to investigate the results before the completion of the task is completely Because the scholars in the school city exchange team who came here two days ago were nosy. They found clues to the mayor’s official residence, and then deduced from the clues that the mayor might be a fake, and finally found out the source of the mayor’s curse. "

Hearing the news that the middle-aged man inquired, the young man put down the unfinished wine glass in his hand, and his calm expression was replaced by a gloomy look. This made his very cold temperament even more gloomy, and the surrounding temperature seemed to be It has dropped several degrees.

While the tavern owner who is particularly sensitive to the atmosphere greeted the guests, he looked at the corner where the young man was from time to time, with a slightly worried look on his face, worried that this looking nasty young man would be in his tavern. make trouble.

If, at this moment, the three-person investigation team were here, they would definitely recognize that this young man was the colleague named Viper whom they had met a few days ago. At that time, they were still thinking of asking him for help to resolve this issue that was about to expire. Task.

In fact, the reason why this Viper stayed in Changmu Village, a village not far from Dashu Town, even took the investigation task of Changmu Village from other people, which was not in line with his interests. This is to allow the troubled three-person investigative team to easily come to help from themselves, thereby gaining the favor of the three.

However, what surprised him was that he spent so much time, and the result was that the three-person investigation team had investigated the mayor’s curse. The plan for so many days was completely frustrated, why he was reluctant to accept it. So he came to Dashu Town as soon as he received the news, and then sent his men to find out how the three-person investigation team found out the truth. The most important thing is who helped those three people.

The reason that caused him to spend his energy and time trying to obtain a favor from the three of them was not because the three of them had outstanding abilities in investigating all kinds of extraordinary events, but that the three of them had their own talents and abilities that were just in line with him. Some requirements.

In fact, in his eyes, the investigative ability of these three people is really poor, so obvious clues are not visible in front of his eyes. Compared with the church's heretical hunters and church knights who only know the use of magic to investigate the supernatural powers of heretics. , So when he heard that the trio's investigation team had investigated the mayor's curse, he immediately guessed that someone must have helped the trio, and now the news of his own inquiries just confirmed this speculation.

If the person who helped the trio were someone else, he would definitely not hesitate to retaliate, but the problem was that the helper was a scholar in Xuecheng, which made him a little worried for a while. His concern was not from Xuecheng, but from Xuecheng. The elders from the family, because when he left home to try, the elders reminded him not to provoke the scholars in Xuecheng.

After retaliating against the scholars in Xuecheng, he may not care too much about the anger from Xuecheng. After all, no matter his identity or the relationship between the Bureau of Investigation and Xuecheng will not cause him to suffer too serious punishment, but from the elders. Dissatisfaction is a bit overwhelming for him. He is unwilling to be the impulsive guy he laughed at before, a real case of the serious consequences of rebelling against the elders.

Gu 　　 just when Viper suppressed the idea of ​​revenge, and planned to let this matter pass, and look for new opportunities to reap the debts, his subordinate added: "However, it is circulated outside. There is a gap between the rumors and the facts of the cemetery. I later inquired from the tombkeeper in the cemetery. Although the scholars in Xuecheng helped the three people in the investigation process, it was a foreign couple who really played a key role."

　　 Hearing this, the vengeance that Viper had just suppressed came out again.

　　 Then, the middle-aged hunter told Viper some things he had discovered about Leo and Sylvia.

　　 Viper also smiled when he heard that the couple were just foreign scholars planning to go to the academic city, as long as they were not scholars in the academic city.

So, he handed over the monster's head that had been processed at his feet to his men, and then ordered his hands to prepare something, and he himself went to the hotel where Leo and Sylvia lived to see if the pair had been written in revenge by him. List the objects, and then consider which way to retaliate.

The hotel where Leo and Sylvia live is not far from the only tavern in the town. It is only two blocks away. At this time, the scholars of Xuecheng are having a small meeting with Leo and Sylvia in the hotel. In the living room, we will discuss the political system issues of the countries in the old and new continents.

Although Xuecheng has its own official dormitory in the town, these scholars and tutors in Xuecheng have spent most of their time in this hotel in the past few days, and even Delkan and others have lived in the hotel. In order to facilitate the exchange of knowledge with Leo and Sylvia.

At the beginning, these scholars in the academic city paid attention to Leo’s knowledge, but as Sylvia inserted their topics from time to time, they discovered that Sylvia’s knowledge was not much worse than Leo’s, especially in politics. She has amazing and unique insights in diplomacy and so on, which has also made her gradually become the focus of everyone. After all, who does not love a woman who is outstanding in intelligence, temperament, appearance, etc.? Many scholars straightforwardly expressed envy and jealousy to Leo, which gave Leo a momentum to become a public enemy.

The topic of today’s exchange originated from a report published in a local newspaper, and the content of this report happened to be the Port of Western Cape. The report mentioned that the Port of Western Cape has now returned to church control. The people living there seemed to be back hundreds of years ago. In a life of fear, the church knights might kick open their homes at any time and catch them on the street as heretics and burn them to death.

Although this article is full of prejudice and malicious speculation, the author is completely from an anti-church perspective to comment on the church's temporary control of Cape West End Port, but the article itself is easy to resonate when reading it, and people can't help but put themselves in it. Integrate into the Cape West Port port described in the article, especially those who are born on the opposite side of the church, such as scholars from the academic city, are more likely to be stirred up by the content of the article.

When the emotional scholars of Xuecheng criticized the cruel system of the various churches, they also mentioned the special country of the Otter Federation. Just like all the people in the Old Continent who did not like churches, the Otter Federation has become in the eyes of these scholars. The incarnation of freedom, they stuffed all their beautiful illusions into the Haute Federation, and then praised the system of the Haute Federation extremely exaggeratedly.

Obviously, none of the scholars in these academic cities have been to the Otter Federation, and they do not know the real situation of the Otter Federation. Their praise naturally caused Leo and Sylvia to ridicule. The federal political system was engaged in various academic discussions, but Leo, who was very interested in politics from time to time, ceased to join the discussion, while Sylvia argued with these academic city scholars on his own. Once these scholars were speechless in the debate, she eventually became her political speech alone.

There are other people living in the hotel. When the Leo couple argued with Xuecheng scholars, they did not restrict other people from entering this meeting room. Therefore, hotel guests who were curious about the dispute also gathered in this meeting room and outside. Most of them do not understand the content of the argument, but they can also see Sylvia's outstanding performance and amazing knowledge. Every time a scholar fails to refute and concedes defeat, they will spontaneously wish for hope. Elvia's performance was met with applause, and some even called out some taboo titles such as the goddess of knowledge.

However, there are still some people in the crowd who can understand the wisdom of the debate. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com, they took out their notebooks and recorded every sentence of the debate as seriously as students. , Even when it was too late to record the complete content, he exchanged notes with other people to supplement the missing.

After 　　 Viper came to the hotel, he was also surprised by the crowds inside and outside the living room. After asking about the situation inside the living room, he was even more shocked.

　　 Although Viper himself looks down on those scholars who only know how to use their mouths and hands, they are just like rubbish, but he has to admit that the knowledge and wisdom of the scholars is not comparable to him.

　　 However, now that some people confessed to more than a dozen scholars from Xuecheng on their own, and asked her to give lectures publicly like a tutor, this is a scene he could not even think of before.

He knows very well that the academic exchange teams sent by Xuecheng are among the best scholars in the Xuecheng, and there are even sages such as academic tutors. But now these outstanding scholars have been defended, which makes him Can't help but be curious about Sylvia, a foreign female scholar who has been called the goddess of knowledge.

　　 So, he forcibly squeezed the wall in front of him, squeezed into the meeting room, and then directly pulled down the person standing on a chair, stood up by himself, and looked at Sylvia in the center of the meeting room.

　　 Just when he saw Sylvia's face clearly, the whole person was dumbfounded, as if he had seen something incredible.
