The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Someone lives here!" Leo soon made a judgment when he saw the scene, and after taking a look at it, he took it for granted.

After all, on the other half of the island full of dangerous psionic creatures and various strange things, there have been traces of human habitation. There must be some humans on this half of the island where the psionic energy is isolated because of unknown powers. As for these humans, in the end It is unknown whether he was here because of the shipwreck, or the descendants of the village residents I saw before.

Leo followed the traces on the beach and began to walk into the jungle next to him. Soon he found more and more traces of human habitation. For example, the jungle is no longer a primitive jungle that grows naturally, but is artificially planted. Some fruits can be used as food, the trunk can be used as fuel, and the leaves can be used to make coarse breadfruit trees.

After walking a distance from the breadfruit forest, Leo saw a man-made stone road, and also saw a very old style post in the distance, and could vaguely see someone standing outside the post.

When he saw the man, Leo walked towards the post, and while walking, he secretly prepared several response plans and enemy defense methods to prevent any malicious actions made by the other party when contacting the other party.

Because it was walking on an empty road, it was seen by the people in the post very far away. After looking up and seeing Leo’s figure, the few people in the post did not make any misunderstandings. The action, but still the same as before, let the weapon lean against the wall of the outpost and sit lazily on the ground.

Leo’s vision ability also made him see these sentinels far away. Although these sentinels were much more burly than ordinary people, they were still within the normal range. And, from all parts of the surface, they did not have any abnormal organs, just a few strong soldiers.

Although he did not find any anomalies, Leo did not relax his vigilance. After all, after seeing the strange things happening on the other half of the island, he was hard to be sure whether these people who looked no different from humans were real humans. .

Just when Leo came to the place five or six meters in front of the outpost and was about to ask about the island, he sat on a large stone, and the middle-aged man smoking a pipe said first: "From here on You will be able to reach the town of Yam when you leave, and when you register at the registration office outside the town, someone will arrange your accommodation and work."

Hearing that middle-aged people are so familiar with talking to themselves, Leo was stunned. He felt that the middle-aged people recognized the wrong person and regarded themselves as others.

Without waiting for Leo to speak, another slightly younger sentry seemed to know what Leo was thinking, explaining: "You don’t have to doubt, we don’t know you, but people like you, we are I have seen a lot of them, and I have to receive one or two almost every day, and sometimes dozens of them, so this process has long been familiar with it."

"People like me?" Leo frowned slightly and asked: "Your words are really unreasonable. Since you don't know me, how can you know who I am?"

"You're a bad luck in a shipwreck." As soon as Leo's words fell, the middle-aged man who first spoke directly responded, and then held a pipe and said, "We can really see people like you." There are too many, if you have any questions, go to Yam and ask the city officer of the registration office to ask, or you will go to the library to check the materials yourself." Then, turning to the colleagues in the post, said: "Give him something , Let him hurry away, do not disturb us to rest."

With the command of the middle-aged man, the young sentinel came out of the outpost with a box, handed it to Leo, and turned back to the outpost without saying anything, sitting in a chair, dazed, I don't know what to think about.

Leo can feel that he can continue to ask, and it is impossible to ask more useful from the scattered sentinels, so follow the middle-aged man’s instructions, bypass the post, and follow the road at the foot towards the island’s Deeper.

On the way, Leo opened the box and looked at the contents. I saw that there was only one badge-like item in this small box. There was nothing sudden about the badge. There was only a variant of the Sigma Kingdom letter. It should be a certain The first letter of a vocabulary.

Take the badge and put it in the palm of your hand. The badge is polished with obsidian. Reminiscent of the geographical location here, it is close to the volcano. It is not difficult to find some obsidian mines. The only thing that makes Leo a little puzzled. Yes, there seems to be a drop of liquid in the obsidian. If you look at the obsidian against the sunlight, you can see the liquid waggling back and forth in the hollow inside the stone.

In Vinylon, obsidian itself is a kind of gemstone, which is already valuable. Now obsidian also contains a drop of liquid, so in terms of preciousness, it is already tens of thousands of times that of ordinary obsidian, and the price is more than thousands of times. , Can be counted as a city of value.

But now people on this island use such precious gemstones to carve such a simple identity badge. If it’s not that people here are stupid enough to know the value of these obsidians, then there can only be a lot of obsidian here, even This obsidian with liquid in it is also of little value.

Obviously the first guess cannot be established. From the clothes and speeches of the three sentries just now, it is not difficult to see that they should have some communication with the outside world. Their clothes and weapons are similar to the outside world, so they are definitely not like the original. The indigenous tribes of Mosang continent encountered by the Sigma Kingdom used gems as cheap stones to exchange cloth or food with the explorers of the Sigma Kingdom.

Then there is only the second possibility, where obsidian is mass-produced and the mineral deposits are extremely large.

It’s just that new questions have arisen again, because if mass production of obsidian is really here, and they are connected to the outside world, then they can completely control the production of obsidian and sell these obsidian to outsiders, not like now. This is used as an ordinary stone.

"Is there no contact with the outside world here?" Leo thought, whispering in his mouth.

At this time, he thought that the sentry mentioned just now that they would often receive people who were in a shipwreck. This sounds like no problem, but if you think about it, you will feel that the problem is big.

Because just like the shipwreck in the universe, any planet in the universe may encounter some shipwreck survivors, but there will never be a planet that encounters shipwreck survivors every day.

Although the sea in the Velon world cannot be compared with the universe, the truth is the same. No normal island can continuously encounter shipwreck survivors.

This also reminded Leo of the shipwreck ships on the other half of the island's beach, as if the island had an inexplicable attraction, attracting all the people and ships that suffered disasters at sea.

If there is such an invisible attraction, then people on the island may not be able to leave the island, because no matter what method they use to go to sea, they will eventually encounter a new shipwreck or be attracted back to the island by the attraction. This also explains exactly why people on this island seem to communicate with the outside world, but regard the obsidian gem, which is extremely precious to the outside world, as dung.

Thinking about this, Leo was ready to receive the obsidian badge in his pocket, speed up, and reach the town called Yam as early as possible.

In fact, when he heard the Sentinel mentioned Yam’s town, he immediately thought of the things mentioned in the deities’ scriptures. He wanted to let the gods come only because of a lack of opportunity, and this opportunity happened to be in the town of Yam. .

Therefore, Leo is also curious about the town of Yam. He wants to explore the opportunity of the so-called **** coming while looking for a way to leave.

"Huh? What's this?" Just as Leo returned the obsidian badge to his pocket, a ray of sunlight passing through the gap between the trees shone on the stone. Careful Leo immediately noticed that there was a drop of liquid in the stone. Things are moving.

Leo looked at the stone directly under the sun with doubt, but found nothing, as if the scene he had just seen was just an illusion.

However, Leo did not deny himself because he didn't find anything, but instead believed that his blessed eyes were not wrong.

After thinking a bit, Leo found the sunlight that had passed through the leaves and felt the sunlight.

After confirming that the sunlight is just ordinary sunlight, he recalled the movement before and after he saw the abnormal liquid in the obsidian. Following his control of the body, he perfectly restored the movement.

Just when obsidian was hit by sunlight at an oblique angle, what had previously been seen in the obsidian liquid appeared again, but this time Leo saw clearly.

The thing in the liquid is a small bug. The bug is very fine. Leo estimated it and found that the bug is not much bigger than the cell, and the number is very small, only four.

This kind of insect is not only small but also invisible. Only the astigmatism of obsidian at a specific angle projected into the liquid after being irradiated by sunlight can make these insects appear. Otherwise, even the eyes with the ability of spiritual vision cannot find any in the liquid. abnormal.

The presence of bugs in the liquid in the obsidian has made people feel weird, and these bugs have survived in the completely enclosed environment and survived well, which is a bit weird.

"Is this another kind of Canamus?" Leo thought that there is also an alien bug in the universe of the Earth Federation. It can sleep for tens of thousands of years in a fully enclosed environment in a hibernating manner until it appears suitable for their parasitism. When the conditions appear, you will wake up from a deep sleep.

Because the body of this kind of Canamella is very small, it will not cause any damage to the host after parasitization, and it will not modify the genes of the host. All ordinary means cannot detect those people who are parasitized by Canamella, only under certain conditions. Only when they are parasitized will they mutate because of the Canamella.

At that time, all higher civilizations in the universe could not stop the Canan parasites. In order to prevent the expansion of the Canan parasites, the civilizations of the entire universe united to carry out an unprecedented insecticide operation, and finally completely eradicated the Canan parasites. Insect disaster.

"Isn't that bad luck?" Leo hadn't experienced that plague. The plague was hundreds of years old when he was created. All the research materials about Canamella have been listed as top secret files, not A bioman like him can see it.

He can only see from some historical data to what extent the crisis caused by the insect disaster has reached his memory. It seems that only this time in his memory, the civilization of the entire universe united to do the same thing, even some solitary Omega Planetary Rangers also participated in it, showing how terrifying the insect pests were.

After worrying, Leo shook his head quickly again, denying his own thoughts, because if it is really Canamon, even if there is a **** in this island, it is impossible to stop the expansion of Canaan because of death. There were more than 30 Omega-class advanced creatures in the pest disaster that year, and the deities of the Velon world were only Omega-class advanced creatures, and it was impossible to resist the erosion of the Cananga.

Although it was already certain that the bug could not be Canadia, he still did not relax his vigilance. He originally planned to put the bug in his pocket, but he still put it back into the box and used an sacrificial knife on the surface of the box. A simple warning rune was engraved. As long as the obsidian was damaged, the warning rune would immediately notify Leo.

After these protective measures were taken, Leo turned to look at the outpost that had disappeared in the breadfruit forest, and there was a serious expression on his face. UU reading books www.uukanshu.com could not help but have some suspicions.

He now does not know whether the sentries of the outpost know that there are bugs in the obsidian before handing this obsidian badge to him, and whether they know whether the bugs are dangerous or not. If everything is thought to the bad, then he is going to Ya I'm afraid there is a problem.

The doubts about whether to go to Yam did not cause Leo a long time. He quickly made a decision to continue to move forward. Anyway, he had to go to Yam. After all, this is his fastest understanding. Opportunity for this quirky island.

After walking through the breadfruit forest, he saw some artificially reclaimed wheat fields and artificial lakes for water storage, and he also saw more ordinary people doing things in the fields or playing on the lake. What's abnormal. It's just that these people have different costumes, some of them have been popular in the world for more than a decade, and some of them can trace the Middle Ages. Obviously, these people don't care much about this, and there are no barriers.

Leo walked on the road, and someone passed by from time to time. Although these people looked at Leo somewhat curiously, they did not make contact. Instead, they showed repulsion, and after walking a distance, they would say something. How come another foreigner or something.
