The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Comfortable!" The moment Leo entered Lake Narnia with his entire body, a thought instantly occurred in his mind, which filled his consciousness and made him temporarily forget the purpose of entering Lake Narnia.

For ordinary people, the lake water, which is very ordinary, when it touched Leo's body, a weak force contained in it penetrated into his body with an unstoppable momentum, allowing his body and even his spirit to enter. to a state of relaxation like never before.

To use a somewhat old-fashioned way to explain this state is that at this moment he seems to have returned to the amniotic fluid of the mother, and has changed back to the state of a baby.

Leo didn't immerse himself in this extremely comfortable feeling for too long, and soon his will pulled him back to a normal state, but it was just that his body returned to a normal state, but his spiritual consciousness was because of the stone throne and The resonance of the inexplicable power in Lake Narnia was always kept in the entanglement of two extreme emotions of peace and excitement, as if two personalities were tearing at each other, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

After adjusting his state a little, Leo began to dive towards the bottom of the lake.

Although this is only an inland lake, the depth of Lake Narnia exceeds that of most lakes in the world. Leo dived for more than 100 meters before barely seeing the bottom, but this bottom is not Leo's goal , Because the bottom of the entire Lake Narnia is funnel-shaped, the bottom he sees is only the edge of the loophole. Although there are some crystalline stones here, they are too scattered and rare. The miner's skeleton of the device seems to have been excavated by previous miners.

Leo did not stop here, and continued to dive down the **** of the lake bottom to the center. As the depth of the dive increased, the remains of miners that could be seen at the bottom of the lake were also decreasing, and the number of crystalline stones was also increasing. , gradually became a large piece of connection, and finally the bottom of the lake was completely covered by crystalline stones.

With the increase of crystalline stones, the resonance response of the stone throne at the core of Leo's spirit also gradually increased. Although this enhancement is still too weak as a whole, it is much stronger than before. The most intuitive performance It is that the patterns on the surface of the stone throne are no longer the same as before, but become clearer.

It's just that the pattern symbols are useless no matter how clear they are, because even if Leo tried to remember the patterns and symbols clearly, once his consciousness was separated from the spiritual core, the things he wrote down would quickly dissipate and return to Mohu again. status.

Leo didn't take this matter to heart. In his opinion, this should be caused by the change of the stone throne only being in a state of resonance. Once he found the source of power that led to the crystallization of the bottom of Lake Narnia, and put that If the source is integrated into the stone throne, then the changes in the stone royal family caused by the resonance state will be stabilized, and then he will be able to truly spy on the secrets of the stone throne.

With excitement, Leo accelerated his dive, and after about ten minutes passed, he finally came to the center of the funnel-shaped lake bottom.

Although it is the central area, it is actually a long distance from the real lake bottom center. This central area, which is larger than the funnel **** lake bottom, is completely filled with crystalline stones. All you can see are crystals. And the crystalline stones here are different from those at the bottom of the lake before, all the crystalline stones here have a faint light source.

A single light source will not play a role in this pitch-black water bottom, but if millions or tens of millions of similar light sources spread across the bottom of the lake, then the entire dark lake bottom will be illuminated like the ground during the day.

In addition to the addition of a light source to the core of the crystalline stone, there are also a large number of underwater creatures inhabiting this crystalline stone. These creatures, no matter what they looked like or what species they were before, are now crystallized without exception, and they look abnormal. beauty.

Because of the influence of the crystalline stone, Leo's spiritual net could not penetrate under the crystalline stone, and naturally he did not know the specific situation of the lake bottom. However, it is not difficult to judge from the surrounding topography that Lake Narnia should be a giant formed after the impact of the meteorite. The meteorite that caused all this may be the source of crystallization, possibly from the stone throne.

Thinking of this, Leo couldn't wait to dig a cave in the crystalline stone leading to the center of the lake, but when he started, an abnormal wave came from a distance, this strong The water waves didn't bring much trouble to Leo, but it caused those crystal fishes or other crystal creatures that were wandering on the bottom to be rolled up and scattered around, and the dust at the bottom of the lake was rolled up together, making The originally clear lake water immediately became turbid.

Leo felt that the water wave was strange. In order to avoid being disturbed by any unexpected things when he was digging, he swam towards the source of the water wave, and it seemed that he planned to solve the problem of the water wave first.

I saw that he swam for about ten minutes, the dust on the bottom of the lake gradually sank, and the lake water became a little clearer, and then he saw a large number of continuously moving light spots appearing densely on the bottom of the lake in the distance. When he looked at the spots of light seriously, he found that they were all people wearing diving equipment.

I saw that the diving equipment these people were wearing were very different. They looked like iron cans, and behind each iron can there was an air tube tied with a tow rope, which led straight to it. water surface.

Judging from the appearance of the diving equipment, these diving equipment must be very heavy, and it is precisely because of these heavy equipment that they can firmly nail their bodies to the bottom of the lake without letting themselves float back and forth with the undercurrent of the lake bottom.

These people wearing diving gear did not carry any mining equipment. Obviously, they did not come to the crystals at the bottom of the lake. After they stabilized their bodies, they took out a bag and put those floating in the water. Mutated creatures such as dead crystal fish were stuffed into the bag. When the bag was full, they would mount it on a rope tied with an iron block and pulled the live rope beside the rope. , motioned the person on the water to take the bag back, and soon an empty bag was sent down again, and the cycle went on and on, until all the floating crystalline creatures around him were caught, and then they moved to the next place to continue fishing.

Leo did not get close to these people, but observed the behavior of these people from a distance, and then looked at the water surface through his spiritual vision ability, and soon he saw more than a dozen ships docked on the water surface, Those ships were uniformly marked, and among the people working on the ships, in addition to ordinary people, there were some people dressed as clergymen.

After a quick search of the church badges in his memory, Leo quickly found the origin of those marks on the ship, which were the unique badges belonging to the Chasing Light Church.

The Chasing Light Church is also one of the True God Churches, but this church is not very old. Its teaching history is only more than two hundred years old. Such a short teaching history is definitely one of the last few True God Churches.

Although the history of Chasing Light Church is very short, its church development seems to have been blessed by the gods. , which is absolutely unique among the various religions that join the Church of True God.

Because of this, many researchers in the history of religion are extremely curious about the development history of the Chasing Light Church, and have set up various subjects to study it. In the academic city, there are many related researches by religious scholars. information, so Leo's knowledge of the Chasing Light Church may even be higher than the senior clergy of the church.

In Leo’s view, the reason why the Chasing Light Church was so easily accepted by the True God Church and became a collaborator of many churches was mainly because of the philosophy founded by the Chasing Light Church. This philosophy can be summed up as evolution.

The founders of Chasing Light believe that believers of any gods should not passively accept the blessings of gods, but should be more active in approaching gods, catching up with gods, and finally standing beside gods, and if you want to achieve this goal, you must let yourself The life form of the gods is closer to the gods, and there is only one way to achieve this goal, and that is evolution.

Chasing Light Church is one of the most mysterious churches among all True God churches. This church does not have any missionary temples, temples and other strongholds. Their mission is to find suitable believers and take the initiative to spread doctrines to believers. Only then will believers be recruited to become the clergy of the church, which means that this church has no believers, all of them are clergymen, and they are also researchers. In the academic city, some scholars are members of the Chasing Light Church.

The entire Chasing Light Church is a large-scale life evolution research institute. What they have researched specifically is unknown to the outside world, but what is certain is that several True God churches that cooperate with them, such as the Justice Church, have been in the past 100 years. Inside, the number of internal senior clerics and paladins is growing rapidly, and the shadow of the Chasing Light Church can be vaguely seen.

For this reason, Leo also included Chasing Light Church as one of the churches he needed to visit, but what he didn't expect was that he had already encountered Chasing Light Church before he took the initiative.

When it was determined that the people who captured these crystallized creatures were from the Light Chaser Church, Leo quickly had a guess as to why the Light Chaser Church captured these crystallized creatures.

"Make the extraordinary potion needed for evolution." Leo said a sentence in his mind.

It is not a secret that the Light Chasing Church can produce potions with extraordinary powers, such as wizard potions. In fact, when he was in the academic city, Leo got a bottle from a biologist who was a priest of the Light Chasing Church. Extraordinary medicine, the function of this bottle of medicine is very simple, it is to stimulate the human body in a short period of time, promote the rapid metabolism of the human body, so that the wound can be healed quickly, and the toxins in the body can be quickly eliminated with the metabolism.

I have to say that the effect of the potion is not bad. Although it is not comparable to the effect of the magician's healing potion, it is far more effective than the ordinary healing potion. However, this potion has a big flaw, that is When the potion exerts its effect, it will greatly consume the user's own energy. Once the energy cannot keep up, the efficacy of the drug will be greatly reduced. Unlike Leo's wizard healing potion, the potion itself consumes the potion to exert its effect. The hidden ability will not cause any burden and harm to the user.

It was precisely such an extraordinary potion that aroused Leo's curiosity about the Chasing Light Church, which led him to include this young church on his visit list.

Leo had no intention of contacting the Light Chasing Church at this moment. He just left a mark on a few people who were fishing for crystalline creatures, and then turned and left.

After that, he spent dozens of minutes swimming to a place far away from the fishing grounds of the Chasing Light Church, then took out the tools and began to cut the crystalline stones at the bottom of the lake.

Although these crystalline stones are very hard, compared to Leo's ability and tools, this hardness will not cause him any trouble, and the crystalline stones in front of him are cut like some kind of soft cake It became fragments, and then poured out of the crystal hole dug with the water flow created by Leo, and then scattered in different places.

The excavation direction set by Leo is not straight down, UU reading www. uukanshu.com is inclined downward, and the direction is what he feels may be the center of the lake bottom.

"Sword Comes"

After more than an hour of excavation, the crystals at the bottom of the lake were finally dug through by Leo.

I saw that the bottom of the lake was not filled with crystalline stones as he had guessed in advance, but a huge cavity. Not only did there not have any crystallized creatures in the cavity, there were not even crystalline stones, and the ground at the bottom of the lake was also empty. There are no aquatic plants, and it is precisely because of this that the traces left after the impact are well preserved, allowing Leo to confirm that the meteorite impact theory he made before is correct.

Leo didn't stop there, and swam directly towards the center of the hole at the bottom of the lake. Soon he saw the source that caused Lake Narnia to appear and crystallize, but after seeing the source, he felt a little disappointed. Because this source is so common, it's just a broken stone.

However, Leo was not disappointed for too long. As he approached this ordinary broken stone about half a person's height, he felt that the resonance of his stone throne became stronger and stronger, and he hardly needed to restart. Putting consciousness into the spiritual core, it can still be judged that the stone throne should have been completely transformed from virtual to reality at this moment.

According to common sense, with Leo's character, in the current situation, he will suppress all kinds of emotions in his heart, and then calmly and cautiously check whether the stone poses a threat to his life, and will not try to contact him until he is completely safe. contact.

But what surprised Leo was that when he forcibly suppressed the impulse in his heart, the Stone Throne took the initiative to transmit a thought, which replaced Leo's own consciousness and drove Leo's body to walk away. When he got to the stone, he put his hand on the stone without hesitation.
