The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

The airship flew quickly, and in just half a day, it completely flew out of the direct territory of the Royal Family of Française and came to the nearby province of Joseph, the closest province to the Black Forest.

Although Leo and Sylvia would like to drive the airship directly into the Black Forest, the fuel and condition of the airship are not enough to support them to continue their journey.

It is known from the population on the airship that they were just preparing to fly the airship for a round-the-city flight test, which is a short-distance flight. The airship itself does not have the ability to make long-distance high-speed flights due to its architecture and manufacturing materials. It has reached the limit that the airship can withstand. Leo’s spiritual network has sensed that many connection points on the airship have been loosened. It seems that it will fall apart in a short time.

In addition, the fuel tank of this short-range airship is very small. If it is just flying around the city at normal speed, judging by the amount of coal in the fuel tank is enough to allow this airship to conduct dozens of flight tests, but Leo and Sylvie From the beginning, Ya let the airship fly at the highest speed. The fuel consumed naturally increased exponentially. It was very good to be able to fly out of the royal territory and enter the province of Joseph.

After confirming the situation, Leo and Sylvia decided to land the airship, and then from the land to the Black Forest.

After making a decision, Sylvia landed in a hill in the suburbs near an unknown town.

However, when the airship landed, an unexpected thing happened suddenly. A large number of birds flew out of the woods in the mountains. They rushed toward the airship like crazy, trying to attack the giant metal-wrapped behemoth with flesh and blood.

"Damn, how could a bird disaster suddenly erupt?" Seeing a large number of flying birds forming a cloud of black clouds, they rushed toward the airship like crazy, and Sylvia accelerated the speed of landing.

Originally Leo and Sylvia did not have any unusual accidents after seeing the airship flying out of the Winter City, so I thought that the airship added the same means as the writer of Louis X to prevent birds from attacking. Afterwards, a smooth flight seemed to confirm their guess, but now it seems that their guesses are all wrong.

"Continue to land, they hand over to me." Although the airship has landed at the fastest speed, but still can not compare with the attack speed of the birds, Leo said to Sylvia when he saw the birds contact the airship. Then, the fantasy of the throne of stone was formed in my mind.

A force emanated from him instantly. This force was somewhat similar to the power enveloped in the Royal Palace of France, but it was very different. The biggest difference was that the power in the Royal Palace was extremely strong, strong enough to block it. All extraordinary powers, but the power emanating from Leo's body is clearly incomparable.

Furthermore, the power in the palace cannot be felt by ordinary people, and Leo’s power can be felt even by ordinary people, and even affected. For example, the captives in the cabin cannot bear the influence of this force on the spirit. , One by one, passed out.

Ordinary people are still unable to resist the spiritual impact of this force, and the birds that come over are naturally more irresistible. They fall one by one like the rain, and soon all the birds attracted by the airship nearby are all Fell to the ground.

Seeing that the threat was gone, Sylvia also adjusted the landing speed, and soon the airship landed on the ground steadily.

Leo destroyed the steering rudder on the airship in case those who captured them later drove the airship to a nearby town and spread their news, causing unnecessary trouble.

"From our current location, it is either Bent Town or Buli Town, which is a remote town. Let's go to the town to see if there is a carriage? Maybe you can take the timber road directly to the Black Forest." Sylvia from The flight deck looked at the looming town in the distance below the mountain and said.

Although Leo knows a lot about the geography of various provinces in France, he knows little about the situation on the ground, so there is nothing to add to Sylvia’s proposal, but he nods in agreement.

After loosening the unconscious captives, the two left the airship and hurried to the small village under the mountain.

Although the mountain road was difficult to walk, it was nothing to the two. It took less than a quarter of an hour to walk out of the forest and into the town.

At this time, the people in the town were talking about the commotion caused by the large number of birds just now. Because Leo’s location was blocked by a small hill, they did not see the airship, they just thought that there was a terrible thing in the forest. Things have caused the bird to fly around.

From the conversations with the people in the town, Leo and Sylvia both knew that they had run out of control and ate cannibals not long ago. Although the mutant was finally resolved by the Special Operations Office of the Empire in time, but The impact on the ordinary people in the town has not calmed down until now. When everyone sees the movement of the birds, they take out all kinds of weapons and are on alert, as if unpredictable things will happen at any time. Fighting.

In this case, the arrival of the two foreigners Leo and Sylvia naturally attracted the attention of the people from the town, but they did not have any bad thoughts about the two, because they were both wearing Scholar costumes, and all of them are advanced scholar costumes, have an extraordinary status within the empire.

"The two scholars, are you here in the town of Bent for the movement that just happened on the mountain?" The town mayor rushed over immediately after hearing the news from his men. As a local official, he easily walked away The two scholars recognized the two as royal scholars in their costumes, and immediately came up together and asked with humility.

Seeing that the mayor of the town misunderstood the identity of the two of them, Sylvia calculated it and used a very pure empire nobility to say, "Yes, we are here for the things on the mountain."

Hearing Sylvia's words, the mayor of the town immediately showed a worried look on his face. Obviously, the mutation-eater that had happened before brought a huge shadow to him.

Sylvia said next: "But you don't have to worry, the matter has been resolved. After a few days, there will be other people to clean up the mess. You better tell the people in the town not to go up the mountain these days, so that nothing will happen. accident."

The town mayor breathed a sigh of relief and quickly nodded, "Okay, okay! I must restrict people in the town from going up the mountain."

Sylvia again commanded: "In addition, our mount is no longer usable. I need you to prepare the best carriage in town."

"Yes, yes, I immediately asked someone to prepare." The town mayor dared to ask what he was told, and quickly took a step to take someone to prepare the carriage for Sylvia and Leo.

After waiting for a while, the two saw a gorgeous carriage pulled by four sturdy pack animals came and stopped in front of them, and then the mayor of the town jumped from the carriage.

Sylvia wrote a loan note, then took out the scholar badge and printed it on the note, and handed it to the town mayor, saying: "In a few days, someone will handle the matter on the mountain. Give him a loan note and he will return it to you."

Before, the mayor of the town had some doubts about the identity of Sylvia and Leo. After all, the royal scholar appeared in the mountain to deal with those mysterious things. There was no protection around him. It seemed strange to look at, but now I hope Sylvia's squad dispelled his doubts. He glanced at the loan slip and put it in his pocket. He said: "The old heel is the best carriage driver in our town..."

"No more!" Sylvia shook his head, jumped on the carriage, and signaled the driver to leave. After Leo boarded the carriage, he threw the reins and skillfully controlled the carriage to the road leading to the timber road. on.

Seeing Sylvia leave by car, the town’s mayor’s already weakened suspicion regenerated, but he soon realized that even if the suspicion is useless now, he can only hope that it will really be like Sylvie in a few days. As Ya said, someone came here to deal with things on the mountain.

As the town mayor said, the carriage he brought out is indeed the best carriage. Not only the carriage is equipped with the latest shock-absorbing springs, but the material used to make the carriage is the best red iron wood. This kind of wood is not only Tough and extremely wear-resistant, it is even better than steel in some special places.

In addition, the four pack animals of the carriage are also old pack animals. They know how to choose the road to run, how to reduce the vibration when pulling the cart, and how to cooperate with each other to make the carriage run fast.

After the carriage reached the Timber Avenue, the speed of the car began to accelerate as Sylvia had to drive. According to this speed, it took only one day at most to reach the border of the Black Forest.

Timber Avenue is the main road of the provinces in the northern part of the empire. This road runs through the seven provinces in the north of the empire. The east reaches the east coast and the black forest reaches the west. This avenue is also one of the most important commercial roads of the empire.

The reason why this avenue is called a timber avenue is because when it was built, it was a temporary road dedicated to transporting the wood needed for DìDū construction. It was just that the builders at the time did not expect that this road would eventually be preserved and become The main road of the empire.

At that time, outside the Black Forest was still a large area of ​​virgin forest. There were a lot of precious wood in the forest. These woods were very suitable for making some wooden structures, high-end furniture, etc. DìDū was built for hundreds of years. Whether it is royal, or all the wood used by the folk comes from the original forest outside the Black Forest.

However, even the lush forests cannot withstand hundreds of years of logging. By now, the timber transported by this timber avenue has rarely been seen. Most of them are products of plantations, and then some rare specialties of the Black Forest.

There is no shortage of people in this world for financial adventures. Although everyone knows that the Black Forest is dangerous, there are still many people who are willing to venture into the Black Forest because they only bring out a precious Black Forest item alive, whether it is A plant, an animal, or even a stone that hasn't been seen outside can get an amazing wealth.

Dashu Town is such a black forest town dominated by adventurers. Here, like the rabbit skin town Leo once went to, it is a town built for the resources in the Black Forest, but only with rabbits. The difference is that the town is mainly for those rare animals and plants in the depths of the Black Forest.

No one knows why the adventurers in Dashu Town have been able to make some gains in the Black Forest. They only know what precious items related to the Black Forest are. They only need to find the adventurers in Dashu Town. The only flaw is the price Some are expensive.

People in Dashu Town have always lived on it, and each generation of them will take over the duties of their parents and become an adventurer in the Black Forest.

They walk through the Black Forest with the methods passed down by their ancestors. As long as they do not violate the rules of the Black Forest, most of them can live out of the Black Forest. Only those who do not respect the Black Forest will be captured by the Black Forest and become black. Part of the forest.

It’s just that the adventurers in Dashu Town have not been very good in the last one or two years, because they found that the methods passed down from their ancestors have become a little unstable, and sometimes they can work well. But sometimes it is not useful at all. This change has also caused a lot of casualties for adventurers in Dashu Town, which in turn has had an adverse effect on the population of Dashu Town~www.readwn.com~ It is for this reason The town council of Dashu Town also began to discuss whether it should be changed, and no longer survived by venture into the Black Forest in search of various precious creatures.

For Dashu Town, although it is a bit difficult to switch, it is not impossible to do more. After all, every household in Dashu Town has been doing this business for many years, and if you can survive, you must accumulate some money on hand and buy the land nearby. Next, it is not difficult to change to a plantation.

It’s just that the town ~ www.readwn.com ~ most people still covet the huge bounty for the unique creatures of the Black Forest, especially the changes in the Black Forest in these years have not only affected Dashu Town, Black All the towns around the forest have been affected, which also makes the unique flora and fauna of the Black Forest on the market become scarce during the day, the purchase price has also increased, and the latest price has been more than ten times higher than in the past. Profiteering.

So the discussion about the transition has been carried out for the fourth time, and there is still no result. Even before this parliamentary discussion, there was another team of seven veteran adventure teams in the Black Forest, which did not let those who were fascinated by interests. The wise man wakes up.

Although there was no result of the discussion on the transition issue, the members who participated in the parliament discussed another result, which was the treatment of foreign adventurers.

Because the price of the Black Forest specialties has risen to an alarming level, many adventurers in other places have also focused on the Black Forest. They have come outside the Black Forest to find opportunities to enter the forest, but have not entered the forest. Previously, the towns around the Black Forest were their footholds, and Dashu Town was one of them.
