The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

After feeling the strong xenophobia of the residents of Yam, Leo was puzzled.

According to common sense, a place has extreme xenophobia, either the place itself has a strong xenophobic culture, or the outsiders will touch the interests of locals.

If it is an extreme xenophobic culture, Leo has not felt it from the previous sentinels, and from the sentries mentioned the various arrangements made by Yam Municipality for those shipwreck survivors, all of them are indicating that the Yam Municipality Outsiders are very welcome, so extreme xenophobia culture is not established.

Since it is not an xenophobic culture, it may only be him or all the foreigners who have come to Yam will infringe on the interests of local people. It is just what this interest is. . After all, Yam is just an island city with no connection to the outside world. Naturally, it is impossible to form an economic system industry chain. Even money is not necessarily there. It is likely to remain in a public distribution and exchange for things. In the original economic system.

With a guess about the culture and economy of the city of Yam, Leo walked along the increasingly spacious road for about ten minutes. After walking up a hill, the town of Yam had a panoramic view.

At first Leo only thought that Yam was a small town like other towns in the Weilun mainland. But when the current scene in the distance fell into his eyes, he realized that his guess was wrong.

Yam is a huge city, and a very magnificent ancient city, at least in terms of the building itself, it is comparable to the city of Miria.

Behind the hill is a small basin next to the volcano. In this small basin, a city composed of black and white boulders is built on the mountain. It has been extending down the mountainside of the volcano. After reaching the basin, it reaches Spread around, forming a huge fan-shaped city.

The city is black and white, and the buildings on the volcanic hills are all black. The form is magnificent and huge, just like the huge temples and churches that have been enlarged more than ten times. From a distance, they can feel an inexplicable oppression sense.

The city at the foot of the mountain is as white as jade, shining brightly under the sun, but compared to the magnificent black palaces on the volcanic mountain, the buildings at the foot of the city are much smaller, but these buildings are small for ordinary people. It is equally majestic and huge.

All the houses here are neatly arranged in blocks. A wide street divides the blocks into blocks, and each center has a minaret over 100 meters high in the center, like an arched acropolis pool. The sharp sword generally exudes an invisible deterrent.

The only thing that Leo could not understand is the huge wall of more than fifty meters built around the white city on the basin plain. This huge wall not only protects the white city, but also protects the volcanic mountain. The black giant city is divided, and a complete city is split into two parts.

The role of the city wall is to resist foreign enemies. From the current construction method of the city of Yam, the original builders obviously treated the black giant city on the mountain as an enemy, and the defense object of the white city is not only black The giant city has other directions around it, which means that there are also enemies in other directions.

It is not a fuss to build a city wall to defend against foreign enemies, but it is worthy of scrutiny for Yama City to resist those foreign enemies.

According to the principle, the only enemies of people living here are only the psionic creatures on the other side of the island, but it is impossible for those psionic creatures to enter the range of the island on this side, otherwise, the repulsive effect here is enough to Those psionic creatures are killed.

However, if there is no power to repel psionic powers, those psionic creatures can enter this half of the island and can attack people in the city of Yam. With the power of psionic creatures, it is definitely not a wall that is tens of meters high can block it. , So this wall without any power is not used to resist psionic creatures.

Since it is not used to resist psionic creatures, who is it used to resist?

Leo thought about the problem, and walked to the city of Yam. On the way, he found that everyone here seemed to know each other the same. No matter how natural Leo’s expressions and movements were, people who saw Leo could easily see them. Recognized Leo as a foreigner, and then all showed a clear expression of disgust, as if he had avoided a plague.

When Leo walked to the gate of Yam’s city, he stood in front of the huge gate and looked at the Yam who entered and exited the city. A guess soon appeared in his heart. This city was not what he saw. Built by the Yam people, these Yam people later discovered and relocated here, or these Yam people should be descendants of the former shipwreck survivors, and the huge city of Yam City is another There is a master, and this master is probably very huge.

The reason why Leo thinks so is entirely because he found that the buildings here are not ordinary people can build.

Take the city wall for example. When he saw the city wall in the distance, he thought it was made of blocks of stones, but after careful observation, he discovered that the wall was made of a complete boulder. Yes, that is to say, the wall surrounding the entire white city is actually a huge stone ring.

Such a huge stone ring, let alone carrying it, is very difficult to manufacture, at least for Leo, who is now a fifth-level psionicist, it is still impossible to do. I am afraid that only those who reach the ninth-level psionicist will start. It is only possible to create such a stone ring with human power when contacting the original psionic energy of the universe and being able to call endless power from subspace.

"Newcomer!" Just when Leo stood at the gate of the city, guessing who built the city, he walked out of an old man in a simple wooden house outside the gate. He looked at Leo, Then he waved his hand and motioned for Leo to pass.

"Interesting!" Leo saw a deep smile on his face and glanced thoughtfully at the people around him as he walked over.

Although Leo’s spirit net was suppressed, Germany’s tenth remained intact, but now the old man is just within the scope of his spirit net exploration, and just now he was looking for the sentry through the spirit net when he was paying attention to the city wall. The location of the registration office naturally noticed the old man quickly, and the spiritual net was also locked on the old man.

However, he found that the old man was just an ordinary person, and the house where he was located was not equipped with a window looking out, so the old man would definitely not see him coming.

But just now, when he had just stopped and stood in front of the city gate without any relief decoration, the old man in the wooden house seemed to feel him, stood up, walked outside, and did not even look around, looking for As if he knew his position in advance, he said hello directly, without any hesitation or thinking.

This shows that the old man knew Leo was outside the door in advance, and knew Leo's exact location, which also made Leo think of the situation that the Yam people he saw before easily recognized himself as a shipwreck survivor. It is clear that the two must be related.

In other words, there must be something completely different from the Yam people in front of him. This quality even makes him like the light in the night. Even if there are some blocked wooden boards, it can be easily felt by the people here. Even those people are just ordinary people.

"Come register! After registering, I will take you to your residence. Someone will look for you to arrange your work tomorrow." When the old man came to Leo, he introduced it like a routine, and then turned to lead Leo When I walked into the wooden house, I took out a form and charcoal pen and handed it to Leo. He said: "Fill it! It's better to fill in more details, such as what you know to do. This is related to whether you can be assigned to a good job. "

Leo took a look at the pen and the form and didn't fill it out immediately. The form of this form is somewhat like the onboarding form of the Chamber of Commerce. There are many projects, and most of them involve the ability of the person who filled it.

"Is there anything I don't understand?" The old man frowned as he saw Leo didn't write the form immediately.

Leo asked directly: "If I want to be assigned to a city library or library, how do I fill it out?"

"Library? Why do you want to go to that ghost place, because it is dangerous and there is not much pay." The old man murmured, without waiting for Leo's explanation, he pointed directly at a few options in the table and said: "Check these options, you don't need any ability to assign to the library." Then, he said deeply: "As long as you have the courage."

Leo could hear that this library might not be a good place in the eyes of the old man, and there might be something scary in it, but he did not ask carefully, but randomly checked the few options pointed out by the old man, and casually Fill in the identity and return the form to the old man.

"The Kingdom of Engel? Is it the Kingdom of Engel?" After the old man took the form, he looked at Leo's content and said with some surprise.

Leo asked thoughtfully: "Are there any other shipwreck survivors of the Kingdom of England who have come to Yam today besides me?"

The old man did not answer, just smiled, then put the form in his hand into a pile of documents, picked up a bell and a cane on the table, gestured Leo, and walked out of the wooden house and walked into the city. .

Leo did not question, but followed behind the old man and entered the huge city.

Soon, he discovered that although the city is extremely huge, with boulder houses that can easily accommodate tens of millions of people, there are not many Yams living here. The number of people traveling on the street is estimated to be only ten at best. Only tens of thousands.

In terms of the entire white city area, the occupancy of these people only occupies a slap-sized piece of land, and the Yam people here only occupy a very small piece of land. They prefer a dozen families to be crowded into a house. Also unwilling to go to other places to live alone in some spacious rooms.

In addition, he also found that some sandbags that looked like fortifications were arranged on the streets of the area where the Yam lived. They were piled up neatly, but he passed one of the sandbags and checked them through the mental net. It is not grit at all, but some obsidian powder that is ground into a very fine powder.

"Obsidian powder?" Leo recalled it carefully. He remembered that in a wizard's note, in addition to the obsidian powder that can be used to extract a psionic substance, the biggest role is to expel some evil spirits, such as carrying out certain In the summoning ritual involving evil spirits, most of the casters wear the obsidian hand gestures, and sprinkle the obsidian powder on the ground to surround themselves, thus resisting the evil spirits.

What the Yam people are doing now should undoubtedly be to avoid the evil spirits from approaching, because not only are there a lot of bags filled with obsidian powder on the streets, but there are also traces of obsidian powder scattered at the door of the surrounding stone house.

"You will know what happened to these things in the future?" Perhaps many people have asked what these obsidian powders do before, so the old man also thought that Leo must ask similar questions, and he took the initiative to explain. A moment, then speeded up.

Soon the two walked to the edge of the area where the Yam lived. A stone wall made of obsidian was built to separate the area where the Yam lived from other urban areas, and there were some wearers near the wall. The strong man with weapons patrolled back and forth.

The old man nodded to a strong man who was guarding the stone wall, and then led Leo across the not-so-obsidian wall~www.readwn.com~ and into other urban areas.

After entering other urban areas, the old man began to shake the bell in his hand, and Leo behind him also tried to open the spiritual net to check the situation here.

What Leo could not think of was that the suppression of psionic power in the city of Yam not only did not weaken, but strengthened several times. His spiritual net almost immediately broke up after he was released, and he could not detect the surrounding conditions at all, so he only Can rely on his own sense organs to observe the surrounding movements.

He soon discovered that although there were no people on the street, there were many people in the surrounding houses. These houses, without exception, blocked the door with various items. After hearing the bell, they all got to the gap of the blockage. Looking outward, after seeing Leo, they all showed gloating sight, as if Leo was a death row prisoner being sent to the execution ground.

Soon they came to a very large arched stone house, the stone house was large enough to start a horse race in the house. There are some huge doors around the stone house, and these huge doors just confirm the giant's guess when the city was built.

Obviously, the stone gate has not been opened. The Yam people just built some other buildings in the stone house with wood. These buildings also make the stone house look more like a rural town.
