The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Remember [New] for a second,! "Transcendence?" Sylvia had a thoughtful look on her face after listening to Leo's speculation about the Church of the Original and the official name of the secret organization, and said in a deep voice, "Where do I seem to be? Have you seen this name?"

"Have you seen this name?" Leo was a little surprised, because in his memory, he had read every book Sylvia had read in this world, it was impossible for Sylvia to have seen this name, and he couldn't find it in the database.

"Let me think about it." Sylvia closed her eyes slightly and recalled carefully, and soon a surprised look appeared on her face, as if she had thought of something incredible, and then she heard her Said, "I know where I've seen this name, it's surprising, do you remember the big laboratory we built in Nuevo Porto?"

Leo nodded slightly.

Sylvia continued: "Before we left, I signed an application for funding for an experimental project. The name of the experimental project was the Transcendence Project, and the content of the experiment was to improve Ability God cells based on the new plan you brought out. The implantation method and the raw materials for the manufacture of Ability God cells.”

Hearing Sylvia's words, Leo couldn't help being stunned for a while, then he seemed to think of something, took out a piece of paper, quickly put a symbol on it, and said, "This is the badge of the Transcendence Organization, Have you seen it before?"

Sylvia took the badge and looked at it, instantly recognized it, and said, "This is the badge of the No. 13 laboratory. In the application report, I have approved the use of this laboratory for the Transcendence Project. "

Lei Ou couldn't help laughing when he heard the words. He didn't expect that his investigation would eventually find him, which also reminded him that when he inspected the implant in Joan's body, he found that the implant had many details. Déjà vu. At that time, I just thought that these details were similar to Ability God cells, so I would have that feeling of acquaintance. Now carefully recalling this sense of acquaintance may be more about the improvement of his Ability God cell manufacturing method.

"What's going on?" Sylvia looked at Leo and asked, "Why is the badge of our laboratory the badge of this world's underground organization?"

Leo restrained the smile on his face and explained: "This is very simple. The founder of this underground organization called Transcendent is probably from the world of Velen, and is the person in charge of the Transcendent experiment project."

Sylvia said with some doubts: "But this superhuman organization seems to have been established for hundreds or thousands of years. The superhuman research project was approved and established before we left. It has been less than two years now, how is it possible..."

Leo said: "Of course it is possible, don't forget, I once said that the time of Velen world and this world is chaotic, and the Belmont family in this world is an example."

"But the Belmont family's time is only different in the flow rate!" Sylvia was still a little puzzled, and said: "But now this person is the future of the Velen world, returning to the past of this world, and even the Belmont family. Come to the past before this world and establish a secret organization, which is different from the situation of the Belmont family."

"Essentially the same, but the expression method is different," Leo couldn't explain it to Sylvia in more professional terms, because it involved too much knowledge, even if it took a lifetime Clear, so he gave another example and said, "Remember the thing I mentioned about the descendant from the future becoming a **** in front of me? That thing should be the same as this situation now."

Sylvia pondered for a moment, wondering if she wanted to understand, so she did not continue the discussion, and instead asked more realistic questions, saying: "Since we already know the origin of this secret organization, then we will go to the next step. How to find them out?"

Leo thought about it and said, "We don't have to take the initiative, they should come to contact us."

Afterwards, Leo continued to sort out and summarize the various knowledge he gained from the banned books in the great library.

Although the main purpose of his trip to the Great Library of the Fourth City was to find information about the Church of Insitu, but the various secrets recorded in other forbidden books were also of interest to him. Even in his opinion, these secrets were more mysterious than those of the Church of Insitu. Everything must be important, because there are a lot of information in these forbidden books that are related to the origin of this world, which also involves the mysteries of the gods.

For example, there is a forbidden book called Mirror Myth. This book is a collection of bedside stories. The content is very simple. The author entered a mysterious cave one day, and there was a smooth metal mirror in the cave. He stood When he was in front of the mirror, what was reflected in the mirror was not his appearance, but images full of mysterious things. Although he could not understand the words in the images, he still roughly estimated based on the details in the images. The things that the images are going to tell, and then he compiled the various things that were shown into stories, and finally edited them into such a collection of bedside stories.

The reason why this collection of stories is banned is mainly because the image in the mirror shows the story of how humans came to this world and used some very mysterious and powerful tools to transform this desolate world into a habitable world. of the environment.

These stories completely deny the origin of the creation of the world by gods in most churches, so soon after this story collection was published, it was listed as a banned book, and all were recycled and destroyed, and the author who wrote this book was also criticized by some crazy people The believers caught it, put it on the fire, and burned to death.

Because this book does not have any mysterious power, and the content does not contain much anti-church content, even if it is a banned book, this book is only placed on the lowest ordinary banned bookshelf in the library.

However, in Leo's eyes, the useful information revealed by this book far exceeds that of most banned books, because two important information is revealed in this book. One important information is that he wrote according to the images displayed in the mirror. Those stories, those stories are just some absurd or magical stories in the eyes of others, but in Leo's eyes, those stories are clearly the daily life of the colonial fleet transforming a planet, and the magical items mentioned in the stories are all colonists. , which proves Leo's previous speculation that this world should be a colonized planet.

[Recommendation, Mimi reading and chasing books is really easy to use, download it here and you can try it. 】

The second important piece of information is that the book reveals the location of a buried colony base. Although the preface of the book does not give too much detail about the location of the cave, the What was the condition of the colony base, and how did he see the images of the life of the colonists in the past, but at the beginning of the prologue he told in detail where he was from and how he discovered the cave. Ou was able to deduce that the approximate location of the base should be in the eastern part of the kingdom of Teresa, and he should be able to find it after a while, provided no one else found it.

The reason Leo suspected that the colonial base might have been discovered by others was because in this forbidden book, he saw some reading marks left by previous readers, and the positions of those marks were related to the location of the base. The location of the information, so there should have been scholars from the city who discovered the mystery hidden in this book in the past, and they wanted to find the mirror written in the book, but it is unknown whether they will find it in the end.

In addition to this forbidden book of stories, there is another forbidden book at the top that contains mysterious power, which also provides a lot of information to Leo.

That forbidden book belongs to a heretic organization that has been completely wiped out by the Church of the True God. The ancestors of the Belmont family once participated in the war of siege and suppression of this heresy organization, and during the war they took away the holy scriptures that this heresy organization regarded as a sacred object. It is the book that is currently sealed at the top of the Great Library.

At first, this book was placed in the Belmont family's castle, and later it was handed over to the Teresa royal family for unknown reasons. Finally, after the establishment of the Academy, the Great Library became its new home. It was also one of the earliest banned books to be sealed in the Xuecheng University Library.

The content of this book is very simple. It is describing how the gods of this world first appeared. In the book, it is mentioned that there were no gods in the original world, only human beings. At that time, human beings were extremely developed and created a powerful ancient world. Civilized world, and when the ancient civilization world developed to the extreme, the corpse of a great man fell from the sky and destroyed the ancient civilization world, and also brought gods, some of these gods followed the corpse of the great man and landed in this world, some It was conceived directly from the corpse.

The book comes to an abrupt end here, and the events after the arrival of the gods and their birth are not written again. At the end of the book, there is a list listing which gods descended from the sky with the great ones, and which gods came from the corpses of the great ones. It is interesting that all the gods in the Church of True God are now in the list of gods bred from the corpse of the great, and those evil gods that are now regarded as heretics are the gods who descended with the corpse of the great.

Obviously, this book also violates the origin theology of most of the Church of the True God. At the same time, it is a great blasphemy to claim that the gods come from corpses. It is reasonable for an organization that regards this book as a canon to be labeled as a heresy.

And the mysterious power contained in this book is not derived from the prohibited content described in the book, but from the cover of the book. The cover of this book should belong to an Omega-level high-level life form, which is quite the gods of this world.

The reason why Leo does not use gods to refer to the origin of the cover, but uses omega-level high-level life forms, is mainly because the mysterious power contained in this book is psionic energy, very pure psionic energy, even more than Leo's own psionic energy. To be pure.

At that time, when Leo came into contact with this book, the psionic energy in his body even showed signs of being drawn out and integrated into the cover. Although Leo finally controlled his psionic energy, and contained the cover of this book. The psychic energy absorbed into the body, but the psychic energy absorbed into the body was not integrated into his senior psychic energy, but formed a psionic energy seed like other divine power marks, independent of his psychic energy system, Naturally, it will not be under his control.

In the past two days, Leo has also tried various methods to stimulate this psionic seed, but there was no response, so he considered going to the Fourth City Library in two days to study the The cover of this forbidden book may be able to find out information about the owner of the cover and the method of driving this alien psychic power.

In addition to these two books that gave Leo a lot of useful information, the other banned books more or less contain some secret things, some of which are about the world, some about the church, and some that involve supernatural powers. All in all, After arranging the various materials harvested from the big library this time, the most real side of the world has gradually been revealed in front of him.

On the fourth day after Leo and Sylvia went to the forbidden area of ​​the Great Library to look up materials, the person from the secret organization finally took the initiative to contact him as Leo had guessed.

"It really makes people feel that you are one of them." After seeing the visitor showing his identity badge and matching the password that the dean of the House of Holy Prayer discussed with him that day, Leo and Sylvia both Some unexpected people looked at the person.

The reason why they were so different was because this person turned out to be Thomas, the dean of the Outer Court of Xuecheng.

"Mr. Leo, you may have misunderstood, I'm not a member of that organization, I'm just a collaborator of that organization, just because they have cooperated more often and the relationship is good, they will He gave me an identity as a member, and I don't recognize this identity in my heart." Dean Thomas smiled, looked at Leo and Sylvia and said, "Just like the two, I believe that the two should not Would you consider yourself a true member of that organization?"

"Yes." Leo didn't hide it, he nodded and admitted: "How can an organization that has not disclosed its name from beginning to end gain my trust?" After speaking, he asked Dean Thomas, "Do you know The name of this organization?"

Thomas also gave the answer truthfully, saying: "Its name is Transcendence. I remember that there was a book in the library's forbidden book that introduced this organization."

Hearing this name, Leo and Sylvia couldn't help but glance at each other.

"President Thomas, can you be more specific? For example, what is the purpose of this organization, what members are there, etc.?" Sylvia asked in a deep voice.

After Sylvia's inquiry fell, Dean Thomas did not answer immediately, but looked at Sylvia repeatedly, and muttered to himself: "I really think, it's so similar, not only looks exactly the same, Even the voice is the same, and the temperament is even more... No, Ms. Sylvia, your temperament is stronger, if the two stand together, you are more like a queen."
