The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Why did you come here?" Seeing Miranda in front of him, Redwyn, the governor of Yanon City, was a little surprised.

Although Redwyn is also a side branch of the Belmont family, his bloodline is extremely pure, only slightly worse than the direct line Belmont family, and it is precisely because of this that he can sit in the city of Yanon as a side branch. The position of consul, you must know that in the past, only family members of the direct line were qualified to hold this position.

This is not just because of the identity of the direct lineage, but more importantly, the issue of pure blood, because some of the most important protective measures and weapon devices in Yanong City require people of pure blood to be able to open them. It was already arranged in the beginning.

Although the Kingdom of Teresa is very peaceful now, in such a world with frequent wars, who can guarantee that a war without warning will not break out around him in the next moment, so some defensive measures are still necessary.

It is precisely because of the pure blood, so their clan has a very good relationship with the direct line family. Compared with the close-subordinate relationship of other families, they and the direct line members are more like companions or brothers and sisters. You don't need to be too polite when talking.

Just like now, when Miranda Belmont, who is an important family member, appeared in front of Redwin, Redwin asked the other party in an equal capacity, and didn't even stand up from his chair.

Hearing Redwyn's question, Miranda frowned slightly. Obviously she didn't like Redwin's attitude very much. In her opinion, a side branch is a side branch. No matter how pure the blood is, it is a side branch. There should be proper etiquette when it comes to direct lineage.

However, even though she was dissatisfied, she still didn't show it, she just responded calmly: "I'm here to pick up two guests, and these two guests should arrive at Yanon City in the next two days."

"Guests?" Redwin was stunned, and then asked again, "The royal family?"

In Redwyn's memory, guests who could send important people like Miranda to receive them would go to the castle, and the only people who could enter the castle were members of the royal family Theresa.

In his memory, the royal family has recently been busy mediating some war conflicts in the surrounding countries of the kingdom, and the Belmont family has never been involved in such wars and conflicts outside the kingdom, so it is very unlikely that the royal family will send someone over.

"No." Miranda shook her head, denying Redwyn's guess, but she did not explain further.

It's not that she doesn't want to explain, it's that she has nothing to explain, because she doesn't know much more about the two guests now than Redwin.

Before she set off, she asked about the guests, so that she could distinguish the authenticity after seeing the guests, and the answer given by the patriarch was very simple, she knew after seeing the guests.

Later, she inquired about some information from other members of the family, and knew that the guests were from the academic city. They met after the patriarch Duke Belmonte and Queen Teresa went to the academic city not long ago, so she guessed that it was probably from the academic city. City scholars.

It's just that she doesn't have much confidence in this speculation, because in her memory, the family doesn't have much affection for the scholars in the City of Academics. It seems that this is because of the cooperation with scholars in the City of Academics many times in the past. There were various problems in the special research, and it ended in failure. Therefore, most of the scholars in the academic city have extremely negative views within the family, and they will be referred to as idiots who are high-minded and low-handed.

Seeing that Miranda didn't say anything, Redwyn didn't ask any further questions. He knew very well why you shouldn't ask more questions, so he asked instead, "What do I need to do?"

"Get the Stormhawk ready," Miranda demanded.

Hearing Miranda's request, Redwin couldn't help but froze for a while, then showed an embarrassed look and said, "You should know that you need to use Stormhawk..."

Before Redwyn could finish speaking, Miranda took out an order signed by the Duke of Belmont and handed it over.

Redwin finally ordered to check the authenticity, then nodded and said, "I see, how many do I need to prepare?"

"Five." Miranda gave the number, thought for a while and said, "You need to prepare a driver."

"Understood." Redwin quickly signed a document, then shook the bell on the table, handed in the assistant, and asked him to send the signed document to the nearby Storm Bluff, and let him hand it over there Stormhawk supervisor.

Just after Redwin ordered the documents to be sent out, Miranda's entourage hurried in from outside, and after salute the two, told Miranda that the guests had arrived at the family's station in the city.

After hearing this, Miranda immediately asked the entourage to lead the way, and without saying hello to Redwin, she hurried out of the room, while Redwin thought about it for a moment and followed quickly.

Soon the group arrived at the Belmont family's station in Yanon City. Although the Belmont family is the actual controller of Yanon City, the army and government officials here nominally belong to the Kingdom of Teresa, but in fact It is true that the Belmont family is the private arm and manager, so in order to look better on the bright side, the Belmont family has also established a station in the city like other outsiders, and requires all Belmont families or those who work for the Belmont family. After arriving in Yanong City, you can only live in the hotel built at the station, and you are not allowed to live in the official residence of the consul in the name of the family.

Although this is a little suspicious, the effect is not bad. At least in the eyes of most ordinary people, Yanon City is one of the cities that belong to the kingdom, not the private domain of a certain family.

On the way to the station, Miranda also asked her entourage, who the two guests were, and how did they know they were guests.

However, the escort's answer was a little hesitant, and his face even showed a strange expression, and his answer was summed up in one sentence: when he saw the other party, he would know whether the other party was the guest to receive this mission.

So, when Miranda returned to the family residence, she saw the guests mentioned in the mission for the first time, and immediately saluted the women among the guests instinctively, and Redwin, who followed behind, also greeted each other very formally. salute.

When Miranda and others saluted, it seemed that it was not the first time for female guests to face such a scene, and immediately explained: "You are mistaken, I am not Queen Teresa, I just look a bit like her. ."

Hearing the female guest's transformation, Miranda and Redwyn couldn't help but stand up, and took a closer look at each other's appearance, and they couldn't help showing a strange look on their faces.

Although they couldn't see any abnormality from each other's appearance, but in terms of appearance, the other party and Queen Teresa were exactly the same, but they still found some differences. The biggest difference was that the other party was exuding all the time. An inexplicable breath, and the moment they felt that they were enveloped by this breath, their blood vessels were suppressed to varying degrees, and this kind of breath alone made them feel the blood vessels. The abnormality seems to only occur between clansmen with the same bloodline but different concentrations. This is the bloodline suppression that the clansmen often feel.

Both Miranda and Redwyn have seen Queen Teresa more than once. Although they can also feel the suppression of blood from Queen Theresa, the suppression is very weak, which means that Queen Teresa's blood Development is just a line above them.

But now, the female guest in front of her who looks almost exactly like Queen Teresa is always exuding blood pressure that doubles the pressure on Miranda and Redwyn. As the other party said, she is not Queen Teresa.

"I'm Sylvia Belmont, and this is my husband Leo Dodd." In order to avoid the other party's continued speculation and wasting time, Sylvia took the initiative to introduce her identity.

After hearing Sylvia's introduction, Miranda, who stayed in the castle all the year round, did not show any abnormality, and even knew that the person in front of him was also surnamed Belmont. After all, how could someone with such a pure bloodline not be? family members.

On the contrary, Redwin showed a surprised look after hearing Sylvia's introduction, but his strangeness was not caused by Sylvia, but from Leo.

Seeing that, Redwin couldn't help but be curious, and confirmed: "Are you the master Leo Dodd who is called the incarnation of the Spirit of Knowledge?"

As an important member of the side branch, Redwin, like most other side branch members, went to the academic city to study for a period of time.

The attitude of the rest of the family towards this study trip is to pass by. It is different from a routine. He is really serious about learning all kinds of knowledge in the academic city, and because of this, he does not agree that the vast majority of the family think that academics are academic. The scholars in the City of Academia are just exaggerated idiots and the like, he really thinks that the scholars in the City of Academia are knowledgeable seekers.

It is precisely because of his experience in the academic city that he felt extremely incredible after learning about Leo's related rumors, and he was extremely curious about Leo, who was so admired by all scholars in the academic city. For a while, he even thought about taking a leave of absence, going to the academic city, meeting Leo, and trying to see if Leo could answer some of the questions that had plagued him for many years.

Although Redwyn showed a very different enthusiasm from Miranda, Leo just nodded calmly, giving a response.

After seeing him, Redwin may have realized that this is not a good time to ask questions, so he suppressed the curiosity in his heart and did not continue to ask.

Miranda didn't understand why Redwin paid special attention to Leo. In her eyes, Leo was an inconspicuous entourage. If it wasn't for Sylvia's introduction, she would not even look at each other, or even introduce Leo. The moment she was her husband, she was more surprised, wondering why Sylvia married such an inconspicuous man. Even this emotion made her subconsciously block the knowledge about the incarnation of the Spirit of Knowledge. statement.

However, even though she was disdainful of Leo in her heart, she still showed the courtesy of a receptionist. After Sylvia introduced her, she saluted Leo before asking Sylvia if she needed it. Take a day off here, or hit the road immediately.

"Let's go now! We're not tired, and we really want to see the legendary Belmont Castle." Sylvia quickly gave an answer.

Hearing this, Miranda didn't say anything, or that it was exactly what she wanted, but Redwin opened his mouth, as if he wanted to persuade the other party to stay here for a day temporarily, so that he could have the opportunity to talk to the so-called Leo, the incarnation of the spirit of knowledge, sought answers to some questions, but in the end he still didn't say it.

Afterwards, Miranda and his party led Leo and Sylvia out of Yanon City and rushed towards the storm cliff outside Yanon City.

On the way, Miranda also introduced the Storm Eagle, the transport they were waiting for a while.

Storm Eagles are not native creatures of the source continent, but giant creatures from the depths of the New World. The early New World pioneers once went deeper into the New World and found some huge creatures there. The cubs were captured and brought back to the source continent, and Storm Eagle was one of them.

It's just that these giant creatures died one after another after leaving the New World, perhaps because of the unsuitable conditions. Only the eggs of the Storm Eagle were preserved under the protection of divine magic.

Later, these eggs fell into the hands of the Belmont family, and were safely hatched by the Belmont family patriarch at that time through special methods. It multiplied and finally traveled to the storm eagle group on the storm cliff.

Perhaps it was due to the population variation caused by leaving the environment of the New World, or perhaps the methods used by the Belmont family were mixed with some anomalous methods during breeding. All in all, the Belmont family's Stormhawks are now smaller than the New World's Stormhawks. A lot, but UU reading www.uukanshu.com has a stronger desire to attack than the storm eagles in the New World. Even the eagle people who take care of the storm eagles are easily attacked by them, so it is difficult to train these storm eagles to be obedient. air mount.

After so many years, the number of Stormhawk mounts that the Belmont family can control has never exceeded ten, which also makes the Belmont family rarely put Stormhawks on the battlefield, and the outside world knows very little about the Belmont family's Stormhawks.

Soon the group came to the Eagleman Village under the Storm Cliff. The people living here are all career Eaglemen who are responsible for taking care of the Storm Eagle, and their occupations are inherited by the family. When the father dies, the son will inherit his position. , Most of these people can be traced back to the Belmont family from the bloodline, so they are also a distant relative of the Belmont family with extremely thin blood.

When everyone came to the Eagle Village, the documents signed by Redwin had just been delivered. At this time, the Eagles were preparing the special eagle saddle and erecting the horn-like eagle post on a high platform. Blow it.

After a while, I saw a few black dots swooping down from the sky. When they were about to reach the ground, they suddenly spread their huge wings, stirred a whirlwind, supported the body that fell, and landed on the one in the village. on a huge scaffold.
