The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

The latest website: People who have not been to Ferrute City can hardly imagine how big this city is, but when people learn that the Northland enters the winter, the entire Northland tribe people will gather in Ferrute for the winter, they should be able to The thought of this city is definitely not small.

In order to take care of the customs of each tribe, and to avoid conflicts between the tribes, the Ferrut Tribal Assembly not only formulated rules that do not allow armed fighting in the city, but also created separate residential areas for each tribe. , And built high walls around the residential area, nominally to protect various tribes from being harassed by other tribes, in fact, to separate the communication between the tribes.

Even in recent years, the tribal councils are still in winter. They have drawn people from various families in the city to establish joint patrols. They help the city’s guards patrol the streets every day. The closer to the outer suburbs, the more patrols there are, because most of the tribes in the outer suburbs It's a small tribe. It's so brave and fierce. A little bit of quarrel will cause a death fight. Therefore, the most frequent occurrences of mechanical fighting each winter will cause the most casualties.

Originally this year, such a joint patrol was to be organized, but this year's civil war prevented families in the city from drawing enough manpower to form a patrol, and even if the manpower is sufficient, there is no family willing to send people. Joining the patrol team, after all, after a civil war, each family has a lot of enemies. If they leave the control zone of the family and patrol in other areas, they may never return.

It is precisely because of the absence of this joint security patrol that the urban areas close to the periphery have become very chaotic this winter. In addition to the hotels and surrounding areas where they live, the other urban areas have become a single On the small battlefield, various battles take place almost every day. The two places are the most profitable, one is a pub and the other is a hospital.

The Longhorn Tribe is not a big tribe. Their residential area is located on the second floor of the city. When entering the second floor of the city from the outermost city, they also have to pass through a city gate, and the inspection of this city gate is severe. Less, but this harshness is only for those northern tribes living in the outermost urban areas, and foreign travelers like Leo, it is easy to be released.

Leo, like an ordinary spiral traveler, hired a local guide at the gate of the city and took him to explore the city. This is necessary for Ferrute, because in addition to allowing outsiders to avoid being in Ferrute In this city without any urban planning and road blocks like a maze, it is also to avoid some unnecessary troubles, because many of the tribes living outside the city are living on looting, they don’t mind Change the target of robbery from those poor tribal people into rich foreign travelers.

The distinctively dressed Leo naturally became the target of this tribe. Although Leo’s figure is much taller than that of the Northland tribes and looks much stronger, but for the Northland tribe For people, Southerners are hairy sheep. They look large and strong, but they are actually very weak. As long as they are intimidated a little, they will obediently withdraw their money.

However, the guide hired by Leo is obviously very reliable. He not only took Leo to go around the city like a few treasures, introduced the history of each building and every tribe in the residential area, but he was also able to notice in time Some unwilling northern tribes, before the other party does anything irrational, first show the badge representing their own family, which resolves an unpleasant experience.

After visiting most of the urban area, the guide took Leo to the neighborhood of the Longhorn tribe. Compared with other tribes, the longhorn tribe’s residence was obviously more tense. This tension is not only The other tribes who are watching the Longhorn tribe outside the residential area are also the guards walking back and forth on the separation wall of the Longhorn tribe's residential area.

Although the tribal councils built isolation and defense walls outside each residential area when they built the residential areas, but that kind of wall is only a symbolic role, and no one would really think that such a wall can block the outside People come in.

But now the Longhorn tribe has rebuilt this wall with simple materials in their hands. A few rows of shelves have been built on the inside. The tribe's guards walked back and forth on the shelves and also built a tent around the corner. Usually, The guard can stay in the tent to avoid the snow.

Leo knew what was happening here, but he asked the guide about it.

"A group of ground mice whose brains have been burned by bounty!" The guide glanced at the tribes hiding in the dark, just like the vast majority of tribes living in the city. The people of the same ethnic group in China are extremely despised. After a simple sentence, they will not say more. It seems that mentioning these people more will make him sick like eating a bug.

It’s just that, compared to people from other tribes around him, when he mentioned the Longhorn Tribe, his attitude was a little better, saying, “The longhorn tribe’s patriarch is very smart, knowing that his bounty cannot be eaten by himself , I found a big family that I can rely on, and soon they will become a vassal family of that big family, and may also move to live in the city."

"Can you live in the city as long as you become a vassal of the big tribe?" Leo asked, casually, while scanning all the surrounding terrain through the spiritual network.

"If you used to be able to settle in the city as long as you wanted to, now there are other rules, and becoming a vassal of the big family is only a condition." The wizard explained briefly, did not intend to say too much about this matter, and explained It was too confusing here, it was unavoidable to stay for a long time, and then took Leo to leave the longhorn tribe's residential area.

After that, Leo asked the guide to take him to other urban areas. The guide seemed to be from a large family. When he entered other urban areas, he did not encounter too many troubles with the gatekeepers. The whole city went down and the day was almost over.

The reason why Ferrute City is a north-south hub is that apart from being the only big city in the Northland, it is also because it was built right at the foot of the Ferrut Mountain.

Ferrut Mountain itself is the easiest mountain to climb among the mountains of the nearby Vinoway Mountains. In addition, the French Empire has continued to widen, renovate and maintain this mountain path for many years, making this mountain path more convenient. In addition to the danger of freezing roads in winter, people walking on it may fall off the roadside cliffs. At other times, mountain roads are much safer.

Anyone who wants to enter the southern French Empire from the northern land or enter the northern land from the French land needs to cross this mountain. Of course, some smugglers and smugglers will walk around the ferrut mountain with heavy switches. The other high mountains, but most of them ended in tragedy, either encountered various accidents on the way to the higher mountain, or lost their way during the process of crossing, accidentally entered the range of the Black Forest, and never came out again.

It is no exaggeration to say that even the most experienced smugglers dare not guarantee that they can safely reach the other side of the mountain without taking the Ferrut Mountain.

Leo didn’t ask the guide too much about Mount Ferrute. Except because the guide didn’t know much about Mount Ferrute, the main thing was that his current identity was a tourist from the French Empire. , There is no need to inquire about these news.

What's more, Leo did not plan to enter Falter from the beginning to Flange. They would take other roads that are very dangerous for ordinary people, bypassing the various checkpoints set up at the end of Firut by the French Empire.

When Leo returned to the hotel, it was already night. At this time, Sylvia and they all stayed leisurely in the hotel room, roasting their own fire and doing their own things. After seeing Leo coming back, they were a little absent-minded all day. Mister and Randall asked Leo how they were exploring the Longhorn tribe.

Leo didn’t say much, and went straight to the topic: “There is no problem, you can act tonight, you can take care of it, you will do it yourself tonight, we are only responsible for solving those obstacles, so that the people of the Longhorn tribe cannot Rebel."

"What? Let's do it ourselves?" Mister and Randall were stunned for a moment, and there was no reaction for a while.

Leo replied calmly: "Of course it's your own revenge. Do we need to help you with this kind of revenge? We have no grudges with the longhorn tribes, and we help you just because of your relationship with Sylvia."

"This..." The scholar couple couldn't help but hesitate at the moment.

From the beginning, when they thought that they would avenge the long horn tribe, they just need to stand aside. They don’t even have to stand aside. Leo, they will solve the people of the long horn tribe, but now they are from the thunder Ou's mouth knows that it is them who eventually do it, which makes them feel a little unable to adapt.

They did not kill people. In fact, on the way to the North, they not only killed people, but also killed the monsters in the swamp who tried to eat them, but the people and monsters killed were in their own hands. When faced with a choice between life and death, if you do not kill the other party, you will die.

But now they heard from Leo’s mouth that they wouldn’t have any resistance against the person they were going to kill tonight. They just had to insert their weapon into the other party’s point. This made them feel at a loss and felt like a butcher.

Both Mister and Randall wrote their thoughts on their faces. Sylvia sighed after seeing it and said, "Go back to your room and prepare! By the way, think about it, do you want revenge?"

After listening to Sylvia's suggestion, the two said nothing and walked out of the room silently.

"Huh! Really two weak guys, are you sure you want to take them with you?" Tessa Moka said disdainfully after the two left.

Tessa Moka, who grew up on the edge of Mossland’s wilderness, knows well what it means to avenge grievances, avenge vengeance, and these hatreds like Mister and Randall don’t need to hesitate in her opinion, let alone Leo, they helped. Even without Leo, they had to find ways to solve the long-horned tribe, so Mister and Randall’s performance was too weak for her to be a suitable companion. Especially for those things to do after going to the French Empire, bringing these two people together will only cause themselves a lot of trouble.

Sylvia ignored Tessa Moka's complaint and instead explained to Leo: "After waiting for the Winter City, I will arrange people to send them to the United Kingdom, they will not cause us any trouble. "

Leo looked at Sylvia a little puzzled and asked, "Since you don't want them to avenge their revenge, why don't you persuade them to go around such a big bend?"

Sylvia sighed and said: "I persuaded them only to make them misunderstand, and their situation at that time would not listen to the persuasion of other people. This kind of thing can only be thought of by themselves." I looked at Leo and asked, "Do you think I should not dissuade them from revenge?"

"Whether they are avenged or not makes no sense to me." Leo responded coldly, looked at Sylvia, and said, "I'm just curious how can you sympathize with the people of the Longhorn tribe?"

"I don't sympathize with them, I just think..." Sylvia hesitated and said, "I think what they do may be a good thing."

Hearing Sylvia's answer, Leo and Tessa Moka couldn't help but stunned, then stared at each other, waiting for the other to make a further explanation.

"Even if there is no wanted order from the French Empire and no reward from the Hannosa Alliance, those who decide to flee to the North will never survive~www.readwn.com~ All the tribes in the North will not let others occupy This piece of land," Sylvia explained solemnly, "you may not know that more than a hundred years ago, the Hannosa Alliance sent a team to prepare to occupy a relatively fertile piece near the Black Forest Marsh. Land, planting food. As a result, the tribes of the Northland united together to form a large army, killing those of the Hannosa Union, and a total of more than 20,000 heads were built into a head tower, knowing more than fifty years ago Only allowed the Hannosa Alliance to converge those heads, and the Hannosa Alliance did not dare to take a step further in the North because of this matter. That is why after the mutants passed the Black Forest Swamp, the Hannosa Alliance would not pursue again. Their reason."

"There is still such a thing." Tessa Moka said with some surprise.

Leo was not too surprised, because he had seen some related records with the old man of Rembrandt. He knew a little bit about this matter, but it was not as detailed as Sylvia knew.

"You think that if those mutants successfully settled in Northland this winter, more people would flee to Northland," Tessa Moka guessed. "And if those people are killed by Northlanders, then Han The mutants of the Nossa Alliance will know that the north is not safe, and will flee to the south." She said again and wondered: "But what does this have to do with those two people's revenge? Even if they revenge, the mutants Don’t you also know that Northland is not safe?"
