The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

I don't know whether it is because everyone has a good attitude to admit their mistakes, or because the old man in the white robe embroidered with exquisite patterns is not prepared to punish them, and this matter quickly passed.

Afterwards, I saw this old man in white robe, who was obviously higher than the others, led the crowd to the tower where the psionic suppressor was installed, and then went forward and carefully checked the machine.

The old man checked very carefully, and it was almost an inch of inspection. Although it was a waste of time, the other people in the white robe waiting around did not dare to say anything. They stood honestly and did not even talk. Dare to say.

About an hour later, the old man stood up, his face very serious, and Shen Sheng said: "Last night the intruder touched this artifact."

"What? Moved this artifact?" Everyone was panic-stricken.

They knew that they could live on this island relatively safely, completely because of these artifacts protecting them.

At first, there were more than twenty of these artifacts. With the help of these artifacts, their ancestors could easily drive away the powerful monsters on the island, and even go out to fish, which is simply beyond the imagination of the Yam people. thing.

However, some of the lunatics in their ancestors actually dismantled these artifacts in an attempt to master the power of the artifacts, and it was even more unbelievable that other people had not stopped them.

It was not until the artifacts were dismantled more than a dozen, and the protection area of ​​the artifacts was reduced to half of the island. It was only at this time that the dismantled artifacts could no longer be assembled, and they realized how much mistake they had made.

After going through this incident, the Yam people established a very strict system and laws to protect the remaining artifacts, so as to prevent the artifacts from happening again and reduce the space where they can live.

It's just that any strict decree will become loose over time, and after the decree that protects the artifacts has been peaceful for many years, most people don't know there is such a decree.

Because of the slacking of the protection of the artifact, the team of combat priests that should have been arranged for the third time in the stone tower did not come. In addition to the blood moon night, the yellow robe priest had to go out for inspection, only a few bodies appeared The mutated Yam scholar volunteered to read books in the stone tower all night, so that the intruder could easily enter this important place and moved the artifact that was regarded as a taboo.

Everyone immediately recalled the time they saw from the book, and his face immediately became very ugly, and he was also full of anger in his worry.

"The artifact has been passive, now the protected area of ​​the artifact..." Someone couldn't help but asked the old man in white robe headed.

"Don't be nervous. Although the artifact has been passive, the intruder's movements were very careful and skillful, and did not cause any damage to the artifact." Then, the old man squatted down again and checked the psionic suppressor again. Then, he said very positively: "The intruder knows the artifact very well, at least better than most of us, and he also knows something we don't know."

After hearing the artifacts intact, everyone could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, but after hearing the introduction of the old man in white robe, some people subconsciously asked: "What do we not know? What else do we not know?" Things to know."

"Of course, like this." The old man in white robe did almost the same action as Leo last night, and saw the suppressor opened a mouth, exposing the original recorder inside.

Seeing this kind of operation, the crowd immediately went into an uproar. Although they did not know what the original recorder did, they could be sure that this method of opening the mouth was not found on any page of the holy book, as the old man in white robe said That way, the intruder really knew what they did not know.

"How is this possible?" Although the facts were already in front of us, most people were still unbelievable. One of them couldn't help but say what he was saying, "The Holy Scriptures are always in our hands. There is no such thing in this world. People can understand the method of using artifacts better than us, even if they discover a new control method, it will only be us..."

"What do you mean?" An old man who also wore a white robe, sleeves, and collar with red threads interrupted his colleagues and said with a cold face: "Are you suspecting that the intruder is our protection scripture?" Did you do?"

As his words fell, several other old men in the same white robe gathered together, staring at the person who said the wrong thing with great anger.

Although he knew that he was wrong, the man did not intend to apologize, but insisted on stiffly, saying: "I didn't say that, you admit it yourself," said, and didn't wait for the other person to refute, just to others Said: "Don't you think there is no such possibility at all? Understand the operation method of the artifact, but also created a new method of operation of the artifact, and chose an extremely accurate time to invade the stone tower, and leave before the yellow robe priest returns. . Do you think about seeing this intruder as an alien? Or is there a ghost inside us?"

Hearing these words, not only the thoughtful expressions on the faces of other people who remained neutral, but also the suspicious expressions on the faces of those suspected, and looked into each other's eyes There was also a trace of doubt.

"It may indeed be our people," the old man in the white robe, who is the leader, seems to support the traitor, but he quickly changed his mind and said: "However, it is still impossible to exclude outsiders. We are indeed the people who know the most about the artifact, The scriptures that control the artifacts are in our hands, but don’t forget that some people also know the scriptures and artifacts very well, even better than us."

Someone soon guessed the obsession in the old man's words and agreed: "Do you mean the descendants of those people?"

The old man nodded and said, "Compared to the fact that we only manipulate artifacts through a part of the decipherment of the scriptures, those blasphemers completely demolished more than a dozen artifacts, and their understanding of the artifacts also went deep into the interior, far from us. Comparable."

"But not all those people were executed, were their books destroyed?" Someone said immediately.

Someone said in a deep voice: "That's right, but who can be sure that there were no fish in the net, but those people had secretly contacted the black sect there over there, maybe they were destroyed by the sages. Before those things, they have passed on the knowledge gained after dismantling the artifact."

As this sentence was said, everyone’s thoughts were like opening a mouth, and various guesses came out from their mouths, and even made up for the gaps in their respective guesses, and soon a speculation that was completely different from the facts was like this. The patchwork is complete.

According to their guess, the invasion of the stone tower and the manipulation of artifacts last night was a long-planned matter, so the timing was just right, and the people who did these things could only be the black priests in the Black City, because those demolished The descendants of the sinners who solve the artifact now live in the Black City.

Although the old man in white robe headed still had some doubts in his heart, he also agreed with everyone's guess.

It was just that some people still expressed some doubts about this kind of conjecture that everyone put together and justified, saying: "But why do they do this kind of thing? And they still choose the blood moon period that is very important to them, to know the relationship between us. It didn’t take long for them to relax, they..."

"The so-called easing is just to let us relax our vigilance," before the man finished, other people retorted: "They deliberately made peace with us, otherwise, we would not be so lax here. They are just waiting for us to relax when we relax, and only then will they have the least obstacles."

Everyone heard and nodded their heads in agreement. They believed that some of the previous actions to ease relations on the Black City were used to pave the way for last night's actions.

The person who made the rebuttal looked at his colleague and said, "As for what, I think it should be related to what is stored inside the artifact?"

"What's inside the artifact?" Everyone showed a puzzled look.

The man immediately pointed to the opening that had not been closed and said, "Don't you think there should be something in it?"

Hearing this sentence, everyone's eyes fell on the opening of the psionic suppressor, and their faces became extremely ugly. Obviously they had believed the companions' speculations and thought that they must be placed in such a large internal space. Something.

If Leo is here, he will definitely be amused. He knows that the reason why the original record storage place will leave so much space is entirely for future upgrades. Almost all the unique items produced on the earth will reserve a lot of upgrade space for future upgrades of these items, which is also a unique business model of the Earth Federation.

Now the upgrade space created under this business model is mistaken for the fact that there is something hidden inside, and a conclusion that is far from the facts is reached, which is really too self-righteous.

However, this speculative conclusion is quite in line with the thinking of most people present. They immediately expressed outrage at the people on the other side of the Black City, and some even clamored to organize their hands to attack the Black City. They were all suppressed by the Black City.

"Okay!" The old man in white robe headed to stop everyone from continuing to turn around, turned back to close the opening on the suppressor, and then pondered for a while, said: "Don't make a conclusion so fast in advance, let's send someone Black City, question the Black Church, and test their reaction," he said, turning his head to look at the white robe priest who was very positive just now, and said, "Hanke, since you discovered this, , The mission of the Black City will be given to you."

"Ah!" The man who was proud of himself just now heard this decision, his expression froze for a moment, and then he showed a bitter face, a look of tears, but he didn't want to go to the Black City, but He is more aware of the decision made by the old man in front of him, and it is better to follow, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable, so he can only bow his head and respond: "Yes, just follow your orders."

The old man ignored the emotions of the man, and then motioned the people to retreat, leaving only a few confidants and walking towards the top of the tower.

After entering the top of the tower, the old man frowned slightly for psionic reasons, then took out a pair of glasses from his pocket and put it on, looked around, his face became extremely gloomy with his discovery, and his eyes There was strong anger.

The people behind the old man also took out their eyes and put them on, scanning the surroundings, and their faces were equally gloomy.

"He came here." The old man took off his eyes, and his anger made his hands tremble, and he tried to put his eyes into his pocket several times.

"How did he do it?" A man in white robe also took off his eyes and said with some doubt: "There is no sign of fighting here, which means that the intruder's shot is sudden and fatal, and it takes only the shortest time. That ruined that incarnation, is such a powerful strength the chief of the black robe?"

"Impossible, his strength is similar to mine. Although his strength can be increased because of Blood Moon, it is not so strong that he can easily kill the incarnation of the deity, even if that incarnation is just a seed. "The old man in white robe shook his head and said, "And, the person I saw was not him."

"You see..." Several Baipao people were stunned, and they all followed very excitedly, and said, "Adult, why do you use that taboo force again, every time you use it, your body... "

"Okay! Don’t say it. I know what I’m doing. If I don’t even use the artifacts, what use would I get for this ability? ~www.readwn.com~ The fuss under his hands, and then closed his eyes slightly as if remembering something, and said slowly: "The intruder I saw is very strange, he was surrounded by a layer of black mist, this phenomenon I only I have seen it in the dead man, and he has a lot of spiritual power, so he should be an apostle of a certain god. "

"We can't have apostles of other gods here unless..." a man in white robe speculated: "Unless he is an alien."

The old man nodded and said, "Yes, I think so."

Another white robe said puzzled: "Now that you already know that the intruder is an alien, why just..."

"Since the little guy Hank performed so well, I naturally have to help him set up the stage." The old man smiled contemptuously and said: "And we also need an attractive target. In this case, the one hidden in the city The intruder in here will think that we are going to the Black City. If he really came to the incarnation of the god, he will definitely go to other stone towers and destroy the **** seed. We just need to wait for him to appear quietly. That's it."

Several Baipao people smiled when they heard the words and said, "Understood, we will make arrangements for the guy to appear."
