The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Mr. Leo, what have you done these days?" Dean Thomas, who had recovered from the shock of jealousy, had to lean against the wall to make himself stand on his feet, even if he could touch these things, He still had an unreal feeling, and asked Leo full of doubts.

Although these things in front of him are very different in appearance from the relics of prehistoric civilization he has seen before, he can still see from some details that the manufacturing process of these things piled up in the warehouse is very similar to the relics of prehistoric civilization. It is an item made by a different civilization, so it has the style of its own civilization.

This is not the first time he has seen such a large number of relics of prehistoric civilization. In fact, the Royal Family of Teresa has mastered a prehistoric civilization site, and the various prehistoric civilization relics excavated from that site are only in terms of quantity. It is not much less than the number of these relics he has seen now.

But the problem is that most of those relics are damaged or severely corroded, and most of them have no research value at all, and the prehistoric civilization relics that are now in front of his eyes should be mostly intact according to his experience. It is of great research value, and the two are inseparable.

And more importantly, these prehistoric civilization relics do not belong to a certain family, a certain force or a certain country, but are owned by individuals, which is unique among the various information he knows about the belonging of prehistoric civilization relics. Even Queen Teresa, who claims to be the kingdom of me, only nominally owns all the relics of the site, but in fact those relics belong to the entire royal family of Teresa, the Belmont family, and the academic city, not individuals.

Dean Thomas knew that Leo was not in the academic city during this time. He asked Teresa and got no answer. He thought Leo was going to investigate the organization of the detached. After all, Joan and Penny left at the front end. He also knows, and after knowing Joan's identity, he can guess that some people in the inner circle of the organization value Joan very much, so once Joan is placed on the order, it will definitely cause those people to act.

Before Leo left the academy, he also received news that some people in the inner circle of the organization had been in contact with Joan, but the process was not smooth, and he planned to send others to contact Joan, so he He would think that Leo was going to deal with this matter, and his attention was also on Joan and Penny. He also used his identity as the dean of the academy and dispatched a team of secret agents from the kingdom to closely monitor there. situation, so that we can intervene in time to alleviate the conflict before something irreversible happens.

But what he didn't expect was that the ten days Leo left the academy actually went to an unknown civilization relic of the prehistoric civilization.

Anyone who has explored the ruins of prehistoric civilizations is well aware of how dangerous that kind of place is. In many cases, whether it is possible to exit safely depends only on luck. Some seemingly safe areas actually lurk terrifying dangers, and when these dangers break out Often accompanied by mass casualties.

According to him, when the royal family of Teresa excavated the site of the prehistoric civilization, they fell into a lot of people, and even the Belmont family died in the death trap hidden in the site.

But now Leo has not only returned safely, but also collected so many relics, which is like a miracle. The most important point is that he can't figure out how Leo brought these things to the warehouse.

The people guarding the warehouse are carefully arranged by him. He knows the situation in the warehouse very well, so it is certain that the warehouse was empty not long ago, and no one was carrying things in the middle, but so many relics of prehistoric civilization appeared like this. In the warehouse, this made him wonder if Leo had some magical ability to contain items, just like the heroes blessed by gods in some legends.

"I went to an interesting place and took some things with me." Facing Dean Thomas' question, Leo answered very simply, but it was enough to make people think about it, and then he asked again: "Dean Thomas, Is there a suitable place to store these things?"

Dean Thomas thought about it seriously, and said solemnly: "The value of these things is really amazing, whether it is known by the Church of True God or the organization, they will do whatever it takes to get these things. If these things are moved to other places, the news will definitely be leaked, it would be better to directly transform this warehouse and the surrounding area into a special research base, and dispatch the nearby Kingdom Legion to guard it, which will be better.”

After listening to Dean Thomas' proposal, Leo thought about it and felt that the proposal was good. Then he looked at Sylvia and asked her for her opinion. After she also agreed, he entrusted this matter to Thomas. Dean.

"Because a Kingdom Legion needs to be mobilized as a guard force, I am afraid that this matter also needs to be informed to Your Majesty." Dean Thomas added.

"You can tell her that we have talked about cooperation before," Sylvia made a decision for Leo and emphasized: "However, if they want to send someone to study together, they can't do it empty-handed."

"Is there anything I need to pay?" Dean Thomas hesitated and asked, "Do you have any conditions that I need to convey to you?"

Sylvia shook her head, then said like a puzzle, "No need to convey, she should know what we want, you just need to tell her the situation of this warehouse, and let her decide how much to bring. "

After listening to Sylvia's words, Dean Thomas didn't ask any further questions. He then represented the Xuecheng and asked if the Xuecheng could send people to participate in the research. After getting a positive answer, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He smiled, then took a deep look at the items stacked in the warehouse, turned and left the warehouse.

In the next few days, Leo and Sylvia both sorted out the collected items in the warehouse. They sorted and classified them according to four aspects: biological remains, technological creations, energy substances, and unknown objects. The barriers are clearly divided into four piles of items.

It is a little surprising that the scholars who were studying the relics in the black house did not show much enthusiasm after getting the news about the warehouse from Dean Thomas, except that two or three had no research work at hand. Some scholars chose to go outside the bookstore warehouse, and other scholars still stayed in the black house to continue their research.

It is reasonable to think that these black house scholars would make such a choice. After all, they have already achieved certain research results and are perfecting the research materials. It's kind of unrealistic.

Leo didn't have much idea about how many people the city would send to participate in this research. It didn't matter to him how many people came, and he also thought that even if those people came, it would be impossible to study anything. After all, almost all of these items are the products of alien civilizations, and these things are not only very different in appearance from the creations of the Earth Federation, but also completely different in their interiors. It is impossible to research anything useful for a thousand years.

However, it was clear that Dean Thomas did not want the Academy to waste the opportunity to come into contact with so many so-called prehistoric civilization relics, so he turned to select people to participate in the research from other places. He also actively participated in this matter, and even recruited several retired scholars who had previous experience in researching relics of prehistoric civilizations. Finally, forty names were listed on the list of people who participated in the research. A quarter of them are scholars who have joined Leo and Sylvia's labs, and almost all of the other three quarters are tutors in the city.

Xuecheng dispatched so many tutors to join a mysterious research project at one time. It is naturally impossible to hide. After all, most of these tutors are teaching part-time, and so many tutors have been replaced at the same time, no matter how dull people can feel. Not right.

It's just that Xuecheng has done a very good job of keeping this secret until the mentor is dispatched to that warehouse, not to mention those who don't know, even those who have been included in the quota don't know themselves. Where will they be dispatched, what research is to be carried out, and even many of them regretted before leaving.

However, all regrets disappeared after they entered the warehouse and saw all kinds of artificial artifacts stacked on the ground that were obviously beyond the technology of the times. Their mood at that time and Dean Thomas's mood when he saw those items The same, even ten times stronger. After calming down, they patiently listened to Leo’s introduction to the basics of various items, and they couldn’t wait to devote themselves to the research work, because several of them were scholars from the black house. , they have rich research experience, so under their words and deeds, all research work is carried out in an orderly manner.

At the same time, Queen Teresa also received the news from here. After confirming that the news was not wrong, but that Leo had indeed obtained an astonishing number of relics of prehistoric civilization, she had to divert her energy from the important things she was dealing with. He took it out of the business, and started to select the royal family's own prehistoric civilization research experts. At the same time, he was also considering how many secret materials related to the gods and the mysteries of the world should be brought to Leo.

In addition, not only did she order the Kingdom Legion near the Xuecheng to be stationed around the book town warehouse, but she even felt that it was not safe enough to do so, even though she knew very well that Leo and Sylvia were strong as long as the gods did not end up in person. There would be no accident, but still another team of royal private guards was dispatched to garrison, and the command of the private guards was handed over to Sylvia.

Such a large-scale corps transfer and personnel transfer will naturally attract the attention of some interested people, and the warehouse outside the book town has become the focus of their inquiries, but when they started to move, the surrounding area of ​​the warehouse was tightly sealed, and The Kingdom Legion dispatched directly flattened the houses around the warehouse, established a clear isolation zone, and built a simple fence around the periphery. The city guards sent by the city dispatcher completely protected the warehouse.

All forces have sent their own elite personnel to try to find out what secrets are in that warehouse. It is worthy of the academic city and Teresa's kingdom to pay such attention to, even sending heavy troops, but these people sent out, except for a few who saw When there was no chance to take advantage of the tight defense, other than choosing to continue to wait, everyone else took the risk to sneak in, and they were all caught before they got close to the city wall without exception. Even after being caught, their stronghold was also copied. .

It's no wonder that these elite spies will be sacked here. They all don't know that the moment they approach the garrisoned military camp, they have been discovered, because after the Kingdom Legion arranged the military camp, Leo took out some detection, The magical magic items used for monitoring are placed all over the barracks, and record the life characteristics of all soldiers in the barracks. Once someone who is not on the record breaks in, the person's position will be automatically projected into the minds of everyone in the barracks. , it is almost equivalent to throwing yourself into the net, it is difficult not to catch it.

In the warehouse, after Leo sorted out all the collected items, he handed over the follow-up matters to Sylvia, such as how to arrange the scholars and experts dispatched by the academy and the royal family, and which items could be studied by them, What items should not be touched, etc., and he himself stayed in a temporary room in the corner of the warehouse, sorting out and restoring the data downloaded in the universal recorder.

I don't know if it was because he physically disconnected the connection while the universal recorder was still being cracked, or because the master control database of the Overlord-class battleship itself was damaged. Most of the data he downloaded were unprocessed garbled codes, only a small part of which could be read normally, and this small part of the content that could be read normally also made Leo temporarily give up studying those collected data. On the creation of alien civilizations, it is focused on sorting and restoring garbled data.

The content of the readable data that made Leo change his plan is mainly a battle report. Three things are clearly mentioned in this battle report. One thing is that this battle report was written 794 years after his death. The way of recording the cosmic calendar has not changed, but the way of the Earth Federation has become the Divine Earth Year, and the number of the year is six hundred and forty-three years, that is, one hundred and fifty-one years after his death. At the time, the Earth Federation encountered a very significant political change, so that the regime was also replaced.

This speculation made Leo feel incredible, because in his memory, although the Earth Federation at that time was a little turbulent in the border area of ​​the control sector, it was very stable inside the Federation, and the momentum of the entire Federation was also showing an upward trend. Someone has already begun to prepare for the future of the Earth Federation to become a high-level cosmic civilization. In this case, in just over a hundred years, the huge federal government will be overthrown. According to normal development, this is absolutely impossible. Because of this, Leo was also deeply puzzled.
