The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Perhaps because of the departure of the white deer, the vision that could see the power of shadows also began to weaken, and finally disappeared completely, and the scene in Leo's eyes returned to normal again. It's just that although the vision has been restored, the perception has been strengthened. Even if he doesn't use the sight, he can still clearly feel the changes in the power of the stars and shadows above the camp through the spiritual net to cooperate with his own perception.

The power of the shadow of the stars didn't stay in the refugee camp for too long before disappearing quickly, and then Leo felt the power of the shadow appearing in the shadow of a big rock beside him.

Just as Leo was looking over there, Su came out from the shadows.

Although she looks very tired at this moment, and her complexion is very bad, but her expression is extremely excited and full of joy, and the stars on her clothes have also become very dim, but this dimness is not the dimness of exhaustion, It is the dimness after convergence.

If the radiance of the stars represents the degree of Su's control over his own shadow power, then Su's control over his own power is at least several times stronger than before.

It's just that the biggest change in Su's body is her power. Leo hardly needs to pay too much attention to feel the surging shadow power on Su's body. This power spreads its teeth and claws around Su's body, making Su whole like Like a small black hole absorbing any light and heat, Su just stood by Leo's side for a while, and the surrounding temperature dropped at least ten degrees.

"You succeeded!" Leo turned to look at Su, and asked calmly.

Su didn't answer Leo's words, but looked at the place where the white deer was standing just now, and seemed to sense something, with a hint of doubt on his face.

After a while, Su turned his head to look at Leo and said, "Thank you! If you hadn't blocked those family members and monsters in the Black Forest, I might not have succeeded."

Leo said something in his words: "Even if there is no me, I will not fail. The outcome of some things is doomed from the beginning."

Obviously Su didn't understand the meaning of Leo's words, she was now completely immersed in the power beyond her control, it was difficult to concentrate her mental power, and she was in a trance.

Seeing Su's abnormal state now, Leo's heart moved, and he asked tentatively: "What is that cluster of fluorescent light that the divine family was going to devour just now?"

"It's from the polluter..." Su responded, but soon realized, he stopped immediately, and looked at Leo with displeasure.

Although Su didn't have a complete answer, Leo already got the answer he wanted, the polluter.

The word Su spoke was not Francophone, nor Gamore language, but a tribal language of the Mozambique continent, and it was also one of the main languages ​​of the Mozambique continent. Leo remembered that when the old man Maupassant was teaching the Gamore language, he had mentioned this tribal language emphatically. He believed that this language with completely different shapes and pronunciations had a certain connection with the Gamore language, and made it easier for Leo to I learned some words, including the word polluter.

These words originated from an ancient tribal monument. So far, the linguists of the Odd Society have not figured out the specific meaning of these words, but only guessed that these words represent certain things. A heresy-like identity marker.

However, from Su's reaction now, Leo guessed that this polluter should be a certain type of family or race, and judging from what that divine family did, the role of the polluter is probably to erase some people with supernatural powers. Contracts, such as the asylum contract in the Black Forest.

"You'd better not call his attention." Su knew that he had said something wrong and revealed something that shouldn't be revealed, so he warned Leo, saying: "There is already a powerful existence that even I can only look up to. Pay attention to him, if you don't want to be like that idiot Mister, you'd better put away your curiosity and act as if you didn't hear anything."

Although Su didn't say who that powerful being was, Leo felt that it was probably the White Deer.

"I have gained a lot this time, beyond my expectations." Feeling the surging power in his body, Su fell silent for a moment, and said, "I owe you a great favor."

Leo said flatly: "You don't owe anything, I've already been paid."

"No, that reward is not enough to offset my gain this time." Su was obviously not a person who likes to owe favors, she thought for a while and said, "Since you are a wizard, you must be interested in the tower. "

"Do you know where the tower is?" Leo asked with a concerned expression.

"I don't know." Su gave a disappointed answer, but then changed the subject and said, "However, I know that a high tower wizard left the high tower, married a wife and had children outside, and established a family. The family home may hold books and notes from the Tower Wizard's past."

Without any consideration, Leo asked directly, "Which family is where?"

"The Drake family of the Kingdom of England."

When Leo heard this name, the most famous Drake family in the Kingdom of England immediately appeared in his mind, and asked, "The Drake family in Berkshire?"

"Yes." Su nodded.

Leo asked again: "Couldn't the tower wizard you mentioned be the pirate Earl Drake?"

Su nodded, acknowledging Leo's guess.

After getting an affirmative answer, some information about the Drake family immediately appeared in Leo's mind.

There are a total of three famous Drake families in the Kingdom of England, but compared to the other two knight families, the Earl Drake family, who was born as a commoner and has a legendary experience, is obviously more famous, not only in the Kingdom of England , and even in other countries there are plenty of legends about Drake.

So far, there are dozens of plays about the pirate Earl Drake, and countless books of all kinds. In other countries, if you ask a commoner who is the king of the Kingdom of England, the commoner may not know , but if you ask the pirate earl, almost any civilian can spell the full name of the pirate earl completely, and even tell countless adventures about the pirate earl.

Back then, facing the threat of Sigmar Kingdom's maritime hegemony and maritime trade plunder, Edward II of the Kingdom of England had to declare a sea ban to protect himself and at the same time cut off contact with the outside world.

After that, the Kingdom of England gradually declined in the past ten years, and the connection with the three continents of the Vinylon World was almost completely severed. Some countries on these three continents had never even heard the name of the Kingdom of England. After the death of Edward II, George II succeeded to the throne. He changed Edward II's sea ban policy, and followed the advice of the Lord Protector at that time. He implemented the Sea Wolf Warrior and opened the right to sea to all people. As long as there is a boat, anyone All can go to sea to fish and trade. Pirate Earl Drake is one of the most legendary and controversial heroic figures who appeared in this environment.

The full name of the pirate earl is Francis Drake. His origin is still unclear. Some people say that he was a slave of the French Empire and fled to the Kingdom of England. Some people say that he is a descendant of immigrants from the Mozambique mainland. But most people still think that he is a commoner in a fishing village in the Kingdom of England.

Few people know how Drake became a seaman and how he became a captain. Most of the versions that are circulated now are recompiled from Drake’s autobiography, but some archaeologists think that even Drake’s autobiography, It is not completely credible, at least the credibility of Drake's experience before becoming famous in the autobiography is very low.

The thing that really let everyone know the name Drake was the Stargazing Point naval battle, and since then, only people have paid special attention to Drake's deeds, and the credibility of various rumors has increased a lot.

Wangxing Point is an important place where ships from Xinwangyang Port, the largest port in Mozambique mainland, must pass through to the other two continents. After the Kingdom of Sigma colonized Mozambique mainland and built Xinwangyang Port, they immediately recognized Wangxing Because of the importance of the corner, lighthouses and castles were built here to provide supplies and channel guidance for the ships of the Sigmar Kingdom, and they were also responsible for intercepting ships from other countries from passing here.

It is precisely because of the domineering behavior of the Kingdom of Sigma that many countries are extremely dissatisfied with it, and secretly organized and controlled pirate forces to establish a joint fleet to raid Stargazing Point. It was a turning point for the decline of the maritime hegemony of the Kingdom of Sigmar and the rise of the maritime hegemony of the Kingdom of Engel.

Regarding the course of this naval battle, scholars from various countries have different opinions, and there is no conclusion, because in that battle, whether it was the navy of the Sigma side or the pirate coalition forces secretly controlled by various countries, all the troops were wiped out. There was only one small boat and less than ten people. The little pirate who survived the naval battle and took all the spoils was Francis Drake.

After that, Francis Drake quickly became the great pirate who fell into the star sea by virtue of the spoils obtained in this battle, and he left various legends in countless adventures. His reputation is so great that even the most remote The town had heard his name, too.

Because of his naval combat capabilities and strong power, the Kingdom of England immediately sent someone to recruit him to the Navy of the Kingdom of England, and directly awarded him the title of baron and corresponding territory, making him responsible for dealing with the navy of the Kingdom of Sigmar.

Later, Francis Drake continued to win in the naval battles with the Kingdom of Sigmar, which strengthened the Kingdom of England's right to speak at sea. Because of his many achievements, he was promoted to Earl, and was awarded the hereditary governor of America and California by the Royal Family of England. real power. As a result, the Drake family he founded became one of the rich families in the Kingdom of England, and created a history of the Drake family's rule of America for a hundred years. It was not until the independence movement of America that the Drake family Leaving the mainland of Mozambique, he returned to the old baronial fiefdom of the Kingdom of England to settle down.

Not only did Leo read a history of the study of the pirate Earl Drake from the old man Rembrandt, but he only judged that this person was very strong through his adventures at the time, so strong that he was at the third level at that time. The strength of psykers is not enough to compete with it.

Now from Su's mouth, he understands why in Drake's legendary stories, he was able to compete with the ancient gods, and he was able to shuttle freely in the labyrinths and ruins full of various mysterious powers. A powerful tower wizard.

"How do you know this kind of thing?" Leo couldn't help being a little suspicious when he was surprised, and said: "As far as I know, even the Odd Society doesn't know about Drake's origin, so how can you..."

"My name is Stuart." Sue replied.

At first Leo didn't understand the meaning of Su's words, but he quickly remembered that in the research materials he had read, it was mentioned that Drake had been married twice, one was the matriline of the current Drake family, The other was a well-known female pirate at the time, and the surname of this female pirate seemed to be Stuart.

Leo suddenly realized, and said: "So you are a descendant of Mary Stuart? No wonder you have the battle wizard's notes on hand, and you also know the secret of Francis Drake."

Su seemed to be very disgusted with the relationship with the Drake family, with strong disgust in her eyes, and after taking a deep breath to suppress her displeasure, she said to Leo: "This news is enough to compensate for this favor. No, you and I owe nothing. Goodbye!"

After finishing speaking, she retreated into the shadow of the rock, and the whole person fell into the darkness again, and quickly walked through the darkness in a way that almost moved through space, away from here.

Su didn't know what he thought was the silent movement method, but it was extremely obvious in Leo's eyes. Obviously, as he devoured the black shadow, what he improved was not only the power of the shadow, but also included his ability to control all kinds of shadows. A perception of dark forces. He believed that the benefits brought by devouring the darkness were far more than these, as for the others, they might not appear until he became more familiar with the power of shadows.

Although Su, who had achieved his goal, left gracefully, Leo couldn't just leave like this. The thing he promised the Weaver of the Web hadn't been completed yet, and it wouldn't be over until the fleeing team walked out of the Dibia Mountains.

Leo continued to stay in place to familiarize himself with the soaring shadow power, but at the same time he also used the abundant shadow power to create four more shadow clones, and controlled these shadow clones to quickly dismantle the traps around the camp of refugees, harvesting those who died Alchemy material on Familia and psionic creatures.

Although the white deer has left and the divine family of the God of Darkness has also disappeared, there are still some Black Forest family members and monsters that have not left, and they still prey on these refugees on the spot. It's just that the invisible breath produced by a large number of deaths frightened them. Even if Leo's trap was dismantled, they didn't dare to approach, and their inner desire for blood food made them unwilling to leave.

In the refugee camp, because of the screams of the family members and monsters killed by Leo's traps, they were all terrified. Everyone was not sleepy at all. They waited quietly for the dawn by guarding the bonfire.

When the first ray of sunlight hit the camp in the early morning, all the people in the camp cheered, but then there were some mournful cries. Obviously, many people did not survive last night.
