The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Sylvia took off the soiled gloves, threw it in a garbage dump at random, and then ordered the people waiting outside the city management council to go in and clean up the venue. Now there is no need to put those **** things. Put it there until she comes.

​​

The captain of her subordinates sent to her by the Belmont family quickly followed Sylvia's side, bowing her head slightly honestly, waiting for Sylvia's order.

​​

"No! The situation here is different from what happened to the people in the family. Although they are all done by abyss creatures, they are two completely different abyss creatures." Sylvia seemed to be talking to herself, Said: "That guy can't endure it any longer, his hunting instinct will make him lose his mind, so don't disband those people in the family and continue to monitor."

​​

Hearing Sylvia's order, the Belmont family member was rather reluctant, because they had been monitoring Movit Road and several surrounding cities for almost half a month, but still nothing was gained. They all felt that The target should have moved to other places, and there is no need to continue to monitor so foolishly.

​​

Although he thought so in his heart, the captain didn't dare to say it, so he lowered his head and replied, "Listen to your instructions, ma'am."

​​

After he finished speaking, he hurriedly turned around and walked away, leaving only a few maids arranged by the family to follow behind Sylvia.

​​

The group soon returned to the contact point set up by the Belmont family on Movit Road. The location of this contact point was chosen in the middle of the third block. It occupied a small apartment area. The entire area was shaped like a castle. Surrounded by three-storey townhouses, at the centre is a tower house with a very local character.

​​

This was originally the office location of the city's finance department, but now the finance department has been dismantled into the finance department of other departments, and this office location is naturally empty. After that, it was bought by the Belmont family and transformed into a family liaison point.

​​

Since the establishment of the contact point, the Belmont family has stationed about 500 people here, of which about 450 are vassals of the Belmont family in other places, and only 50 or 60 are members of the Belmont family's side branch. , Among the more than fifty Belmont family members, there are more than a dozen people who are heretical hunters with rich experience.

​​

Although the Church of the True God has the lowest influence in the polar mountains, it is not the first refuge for those cultists, heretics and evil beings who are hunted down by the Church of the True God.

​​

One is that the living environment here is so bad that only local people can get used to the harsh environment here. Outsiders, especially those from the warmer areas of the south, come here, without exception, because of various inability to adapt. If you choose to leave, only a few people with extraordinary mental and physical fitness can stay.

​​

The second is because the tribal primitive beliefs in the polar mountains themselves are very popular, which just fills the vacancy of the True God Church. Among these primitive beliefs that use tribes or blood as inheritance links, there are many existences with powerful extraordinary powers. From the Church of True God, if the inheritors of these primitive beliefs caught those cultists, heretics, or those with evil powers, they would be more willing to sacrifice them to nature in a more cruel method, and that cruel method would make these primitive The inheritors of the faith are more like cultists than cultists, so in the process of offering sacrifices, the sacrificer will definitely hope that he is caught by the people of the True God Church, and sincerely regret that he chose the polar mountains as a refuge. .

​​

Although for various reasons, those evil beings such as cultists will not choose the polar mountains as their first choice for refuge, but there will always be a few who are unavoidable and can only hide in the north, and these people are not only strong Powerful, and extremely good at disguising, the crimes committed are unrecognizable, and it is difficult to deal with the elites in these evil existences with the power of the special departments dealing with such people in every city in the polar mountains. It is time-consuming and expensive to dispatch those inheritors of primitive beliefs from various tribes, and those people often cause greater casualties and damage when catching evil heretics.

​​

So when the Belmont family, the world's top heresy hunter, wanted to establish a liaison point on Movit Road, the city management of Movit Road was extremely happy, and all the procedures went through easily, even the houses and land of the liaison office were It was sold to the Belmont family at the lowest price, and the Belmont family was also very cooperative in letting their family members participate in various things in the city to hunt down heretics, and thus got some privileges.

​​

The case that attracted Sylvia this time was also one of the cases that the City Management Council invited the Belmont family to participate in, but at first they only treated this case as a general evil heresy case, while Sylvia I accidentally saw the relevant report, and immediately analyzed that there must be abyss creatures involved in this case, and this case is not an isolated case, it is one of a series of cases, but the management of Movit Road and Belmont's heretical hunters will all These chain cases are treated as isolated cases.

​​

After returning to the family liaison office, Sylvia went directly to the office prepared by the family, and then ordered several attendants who followed her to find all the homicide files that had occurred on Movit Road and surrounding cities in recent years. .

​​

Before coming to Movit Road, Sylvia just thought that there was a low-level creature or a middle-level race running from the abyss hiding here to make trouble, but at the scene of the murder just now, she discovered the evil that committed this case. Heresy is actually another kind of abyss creature, not the one that attracted her, so she suspected that there were more than one or two abyss creatures hidden in the polar mountains, and there were many more. Maybe she could learn from the murder cases that happened in the past. Find some clues, find out how many abyss creatures have infiltrated here,

​​

Because I often work with the hunters and guards of the management council, a case file is also kept in the Belmont family's liaison office, and these files are all sorted out. After Sylvia ordered it, it was soon related. The files were sent to Sylvia, and even the attendants went far beyond the standard to organize the files of various murder cases that occurred in other distant cities that Sylvia did not instruct. The earliest date of the archives can be traced back to more than 200 years ago.

​​

Watching the staff bring in the files that were covered with a thick layer of dust, and gradually fill up all the open space in the office, Sylvia didn't say anything, and directly picked up the files in the city of Movit Road recently. The files of the incident were flipped through.

Although the archives are very numerous and piled up like a hill, Sylvia doesn't need to read all the contents in the archives, she only needs to look at a few key points, so after only half an hour, she has already Werther's related files were all browsed, and she found what she wanted to find.

​​

Sylvia instructed to take back the documents she had already browsed, then took out a pen and wrote the number three on a sticky note.

​​

After her instructions, she found that there are at least three different abyss creature groups lurking in Movit Road, an important city where the polar mountains communicate with the outside world, and each group should have more than ten to fifteen ethnic groups, of which The two ethnic groups should be low-level abyss creatures with certain wisdom, while the remaining group is the middle-level abyss race. The relationship between the three should be subordinate. It's just that she doesn't know what creatures and races these three abyss ethnic groups are.

​​

Under normal circumstances, the lower abyss creatures have no wisdom. They act instinctively, just like beasts, and they may even be inferior to beasts. But there are exceptions to everything. Impulsive, and even if these intelligent lower-level abyss creatures have wisdom, it is impossible to change the essence of their lower-level abyss creatures, so they will become prey and food of other abyss races under normal circumstances.

​​

However, there are exceptions to everything. Some middle-level abyss races like to absorb these intelligent lower-level abyss creatures as vassals, and some even form a symbiotic relationship, so the power aura of these abyss creatures becomes chaotic and mixed. It is impossible to identify their species from the breath of power, just like what Sylvia is experiencing now. The moment she stepped into the scene of the case, she was very sure that it was the work of the abyss creature, but she couldn't tell what abyss it was. biology.

​​

Afterwards, Sylvia continued to read the case files in other cities, and the more she read, the more surprised she was, because she found that the polar mountains seemed to have become an outpost of abyssal creatures, and almost every There are more than two abyss ethnic groups in the city. By analyzing the death characteristics of the victims of some cases, she even analyzed the identities of some abyss ethnic groups, and this is not the end. If you continue to push forward, she even found that there are some abyss ethnic groups. The traces of the activities of the upper race in the abyss, and what is interesting is that this upper race in the abyss turned out to be the partner of a missionary of the Church of the True God, and from various indications, the missionary of the Church of the True God seems to know the identity of his partner, so he Will take the initiative to cover for it.

​​

After discovering the traces of the race on the abyss, Sylvia lost interest in other materials immediately, she paused reading the case files, and instructed the attendant: "These files are useless, let someone move them back! In addition, you immediately go and bring me all the books that record the relevant information of the sage of the Spirit of Knowledge Church, Borostam, the more detailed the better."

​​

Hearing Sylvia's order, the attendants were stunned for a while. They looked at the case files that had just moved in not long ago. Their faces were slightly displeased, but they soon returned to normal, and then listened to hope. Sylvia's instructions moved out the data files that had just moved in not long ago, and collected books that recorded the deeds of Borostam, the sage of the Spirit of Knowledge Church, according to new instructions.

​​

Just when Sylvia was about to get up and go to the next room to take a rest, and when the servants had collected the information before continuing the investigation, she suddenly stood there and followed to an empty corner of the room, without a head. He said, "Have you finished everything?"

​​

Just as Sylvia's voice fell, Leo's figure appeared out of thin air in the unoccupied corner, looked at her with a smile, and responded: "It can be said that it is done, but some things are different from what I expected." , He looked Sylvia up and down and said, "You were able to find me hidden in the gaps in space. It seems that you have gained a lot during this time!"

​​

Leo came here just now when Sylvia was still checking the case files of other cities, but instead of disturbing Sylvia, he used sorcery to hide himself in the gaps in space, etc. Sylvia reappeared when she was done.

​​

According to Leo's previous understanding of Sylvia, the spatial invisibility created by his current fusion of high tower witchcraft should not be discovered, but Sylvia knows his location so easily. , and also knew that the person who performed this sorcery was him. Obviously, Sylvia's ability was much stronger than when she was separated from him last time.

​​

"There is indeed some gain." Sylvia admitted Leo's guess, but did not say what the gain was, but it was not difficult to see from the smug expression on her face that this gain should not be a star and a half, and then she changed the topic back to When it came to Leo, UU read www. uukanshu.com asked suspiciously: "What do you mean when you say it's different from what you expected? Did you encounter any difficulties?"

​​

"It's not difficult, it's just..." Leo thought about his words and said, "I found that we seemed to be calculated."

​​

"Calculation? What's going on?" Sylvia asked in confusion.

​​

Afterwards, Leo recounted in detail what happened after he and Sylvia were separated. The attendants of the Belmont family were transporting the documents Sylvia had ordered, so they both moved to the next room to continue talking.

​​

When Leo finished talking about his experience during this period of time, Sylvia's face also became a little gloomy. After all, he was manipulated by others from the beginning. Anyone who encounters this kind of thing will not have a good mood, and let him She was fortunate that the white deer had no ill will towards the couple, but just borrowed their strength and identity to fluctuate the chess pieces buried in this world, so the two of them didn't lose much, or to be more accurate, they On the contrary, the harvest was full, so Sylvia's inner anger and displeasure were quickly suppressed.

​​

Perhaps for fairness, after Leo finished talking about his experience during this period of time, Sylvia also talked about what she had encountered during this period of time. As said before, she had some gains during this period of time. It sounds like an understatement, but in fact it is very precious, because she harvested two divine remains that contained the natural gods of the polar mountains, and it was these two remains that made her life form a leap forward, She can already touch the mysteries of higher life forms.
