The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"What's going on with this city now? Is it an illusion created by Loki?" Leo put the wizard's wonder in his pocket, waiting for a chance to study the mystery of the Sunshine Gun, and then pointed asked the city.

"It should be." The merchant gave a humorous answer.

"Should?" Leo looked at the merchant suspiciously.

I only heard Hongshang explain: "Because the power of the gods is different, the situation in each Hall of Valor is completely different. The Hall of Valor of Frey, the God of Sunshine, I have been to before, is a scorching desert with countless lights. Where are the monsters turned into elves inhabiting?" He said, looking at the city in front of him, and said: "It's the first time I've seen an illusion that can almost be faked like this, and in my memory there is only the God of Deceit To be able to create such realistic illusions."

"Are these illusions dangerous?" Leo asked again.

"I haven't found any danger yet." The merchant shook his head and said, "I've been here for a while, and I've been here for a while, and I haven't encountered any danger."

"Have you been to those tall buildings?" Leo asked, pointing to a tall building not far away that was supposed to be a solid steel building, but now turned into a normal building.

The merchant shook his head and said, "I've been there, and I haven't encountered any danger."

"Since there is no danger, where are we going next?" Leo asked again.

"Where else can we go, of course to the holy tower!" Hong Shang pointed to the obvious tower not far away, and said, "All the secret treasures left by the Hall of Valor are hidden there, and that is our goal. "

Leo frowned and said, "I've been there before, but there's no entrance."

"Have you been there?" The merchant was stunned.

Leo continued: "It's also very dangerous there, there are a lot of Valkyries guarding it."

"Impossible!" The merchant immediately shook his head and said, "Loki is a traitor to the gods, and Valkyrie is a warrior of the gods. How could it be possible for Valkyrie to guard the hall of Valkyrie, the traitor to the gods?"

Leo said solemnly: "Indeed, you are right. It is impossible for a warrior of the gods to protect a traitor of the gods, but what if this is not Loki's Hall of Valor?"

"Not Loki's Hall of Valor?" Hong Shang was stunned, not knowing what to say for a while.

"You can't be sure that this is Loki's Hall of Valor, you just think that only Loki can create the illusion in front of you, that's why you associate this place with Loki's Hall of Valor, you can't find anything else Other clues can be connected with Loki." Leo explained slowly, and then threw out his opinion, saying: "What if this is not Loki's Hall of Valor?"

The merchant fell into contemplation, and seemed to be touched by Leo's words. After a while, he broke away from the contemplation, and said in a deep voice: "It doesn't matter whether it is Loki's Hall of Valor, the important thing is that there must be The treasures of the ancient gods are hidden, and these are our goals."

Leo didn't say anything more, and asked directly: "You have more experience than me about the Hall of Valor, how do we get in? What do I need to do?"

"Don't worry, what I asked you to do is very simple, even an ordinary person can do it, and there is no danger." Hongshang didn't answer Leo's question directly, but Hanhu responded, Then he put away all kinds of goods on the ground, gestured to Leo, and walked towards the third road on the right.

Seeing this situation, Leo also followed, staring thoughtfully at the back of the merchant.

After the conversation just now, Leo is almost sure that the merchant in front of him, who should be an awakened person, is definitely not here for the hidden treasure, because he used the hidden treasure repeatedly in the conversation just now to guide Leo to stay here, Exploring here, he even took the initiative to take out some precious things to make Leo have the idea that the same treasures are also stored here, such as the wizard's strange object that contains the sun gun. No matter how powerful his strength is, he was willing to exchange forty bottles of wizard medicine, and during the exchange process, he couldn't hide his unwillingness. Obviously, that deal seemed to him to be a big loss, unlike before. The transaction of items such as small nuclear bombs is closed, which is not the same thing at all.

But he acquiesced to such an extremely unfair transaction in his eyes. If he hadn't planned in his heart, Leo would never believe that the other party would be willing to such a transaction, and this plan was undoubtedly for The stuff in that holy tower went.

Regardless of whether this is the Loki Hall of Valor that the merchant is talking about, one thing Leo can be sure of is that the merchant should be very familiar with this place, and even know what is hidden in the holy tower, and that thing should be very important to him , That's why he will stay here, waiting for someone who has the ability to help him enter the holy tower and get the things.

When Leo asked the merchant about the situation here, he had already determined from the other party's expression and the content of the answer that the merchant in front of him did not just enter here as he said, but had stayed here for a long time, even It is possible that he was trapped here, so he was so confident when he said that there was no danger here.

You must know that in the face of this special illusion like a time gap in the three major city-states, Leo has no way to figure out the situation here in a short time. As for whether there is danger here, it will take a long time to observe. He doesn't think that the merchant in front of him has a stronger exploration ability than himself. The only thing that can make up the gap is the length of exploration time. This is also the basis for Leo to judge that the merchant will stay here for a long time.

Under the guidance of the merchant, Leo walked through four streets and came to a building near the middle of the city. Unlike other places around, this building was quiet with no one coming and going. When pedestrians get a little closer to the street where this building is located, they will naturally turn and take other paths, as if there is some kind of invisible mind control force field around this building, which affects anyone's spirit and prevents them from approaching .

However, Leo didn't feel any power around this building, he just could feel that the surroundings of this building were very quiet. The tranquility that calms down the mood.

"We're going to stay here for a while and leave at night." Hong Shang also stopped at the entrance of the building, then pointed to the building in front of him and said.

Leo asked, "Why is this building so special?"

"I don't know either," Hong Shang shook his head and said, "I just know that the vicinity of this building is very safe."

"Safe?" Leo frowned, looked at the building in front of him with his spirit vision, and said, "In my opinion, there are only two ways to cause this situation. One way is that there is an extremely powerful force here. , this kind of power can repel all dangers from approaching, but I can't feel any power here, another..."

Before Leo finished speaking, he just stared straight at the building in front of him and didn't speak for a long time.

Seeing that Leo stopped halfway through his words, the merchant couldn't help asking: "What's the other one?"

Leo withdrew his gaze, turned his head to look at the merchant, and said: "Another way is that the materials used to make this building are not simple. This material contains a powerful aura that ordinary people cannot feel. These auras can affect all living things. Objects or dead objects act as a deterrent, keeping them from approaching."

Although Leo did not clearly point out his choice, the merchant has already seen that Leo should think that the second method is the reason for making this place safe, which also made him curiously look up at the building in front of him, wanting to see See what is so special about this building that he has already figured out inside and out that can create such a safe area.

Just as Hongshang felt, Leo really believed that the safety zone of the building was caused by the building materials, because in his spiritual vision, the steel building was surrounded by a large number of giant snakes composed of countless skeletons, and Those skeletons are humanoid skeletons with wings, similar to the legendary Valkyrie.

I don't know whether this giant bone snake is located in a different time dimension, or it is just a phantom of the soul. In short, it can move and is not a dead thing. When it is observed by the spirit vision, it seems to be aware of it and find it accurately. It found the source of spiritual vision, and stared at Leo's position with those snake eyes like small black holes, but it could be seen that it couldn't see Leo, and soon it averted its sight.

No matter how this giant skeleton snake was formed, the invisible power brought by its life form has indeed produced a strong effect, but Leo can't feel it now, but people in some time dimensions It can be felt, so the origin of this giant bone snake should belong to some kind of higher life form similar to gods or demigods.

The merchant obviously doesn't have Leo's spiritual vision ability, but he has other methods to verify Leo's statement. He took out a stone basin filled with liquid like mercury from his pocket, and held the stone basin in one hand, Putting a hand on the building, he didn't know that the outer wall of the building he touched was actually the body of the giant bone snake.

Immediately afterwards, the mercury in the stone basin supported by the merchant began to tremble uncontrollably, and the tremors were very violent, as if it was about to gush out of the stone basin.

Seeing this situation, the merchant promptly retracted his hand, and the mercury in the stone basin immediately calmed down.

"You are right. The remains of gods must have been used in the manufacturing materials of this building. Otherwise, my spirit plate would not have such a violent reaction." The merchant looked at the building in front of him with a serious face, and then he was full of doubts. Digu said: "But how could this be? Why can't I feel anything? Logically, if there are spirit remains, I should be able to feel them?"

Leo stood aside and did not speak. He knew that the merchant must not be aware of such things as the time dimension. He always thought that this place was just an illusion, so he didn't know that the reason why he could not perceive the power belonging to the remains of the gods was because they were not in the same time dimension.

"Should we go in now?" Leo asked the merchant, although he was asking, but he had already decided to go in, because he wanted to see if he could walk into this place, which in his eyes should be a completely In a solid steel building.

After hearing the words, the merchant thought for a while and said, "Let's go in! Standing outside at night may cause some bad things."

After speaking, he took the lead and walked towards the entrance of the building, and when he reached the entrance, his whole body seemed to be integrated into the steel exterior wall of the building in front of Leo's eyes.

Although the merchant did not clearly explain what bad things happened, Leo can be sure that the merchant must have encountered it before, so that means that there should be some companions or assistants around the merchant before, and these people may have encountered accidents now.

Leo turned off his spiritual vision while looking at the reason why his former partner encountered an accident, so that the building in front of him changed back to a normal building. When he came to the entrance of the building, he pushed the door as if entering a normal building As for entering, the steel exterior wall he saw at the beginning did not hinder him in any way, and he walked in as if entering an ordinary building.

At this time, Hongshang was already waiting inside, and when he saw Leo coming in, he walked towards the elevator cabin in the center of the building, and said at the same time: "Only the thirteenth floor is absolutely safe, and the other floors are more or less safe." There will be some small problems, we will go directly to the thirteenth floor and stay until nightfall."

Leo followed behind the merchant, looking at the surrounding environment, this hall is similar to the hall of an ordinary building~www.readwn.com~ but the style of the whole hall is completely different from the style of this world, the style of the hall is more like The hotel lobby style of the old earth era has a lot of decorations, inlaid with various golden statues, and various gorgeous chandeliers are hung, and a layer of hand-woven carpets is laid on the ground. A retro style with a touch of luxury.

Leo tried to activate his spiritual vision ability to see if there would be any changes in his surroundings, but unexpectedly, his spiritual vision ability seemed to be suppressed by some kind of force and could not be stimulated, and not only his spiritual vision ability, but other Abilities related to psychic energy cannot be aroused, but other than psychic energy, the imprint of the gods, the crystal serpent, and the stone throne can still be activated normally. It seems that this building only restricts psychic energy.

Although the psychic energy was suppressed, Leo did not show any abnormal expression because of this, and followed the merchant all the way to the thirteenth floor of the building.

Unlike the lobby below which is decorated with a lot of gorgeous decorations and equipment, the entire floor on the thirteenth floor is empty, and there is not even an outer wall around it. Standing on the thirteenth floor, you can feel the breeze blowing in from outside, and you can see the What is surprising is that the urban scene seen from the thirteenth floor is not the city scene seen before, nor the steel building scene seen through the spirit vision, but the scene of the end.
