The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"What's your name?" Bucktooth Bailey, who is the goods sorting supervisor at the railway station, took a look at the note written on the upper of the old shoe, and didn't immediately arrange to take the train to Lyon. The tall and strong man in front of him asked.

"Leo Dodd." The strong man replied blankly.

Bucktooth Bailey asked again: "What did you do before?"

"Is it necessary to ask such detailed questions?" Leo responded coldly: "I just want to spend a lot of money to buy a ticket to Lyon and leave this country. Your Excellency is just a ticket seller. You and I have made a deal this time. After that, it’s impossible to meet again, is it necessary to know what I used to do? Could it be that you didn’t sell me the ticket if you knew I was a criminal before?”

Bucktooth Bailey was silent for a while, and said angrily: "Boy, you are right, I am just a ticket seller, it is useless to know so much, but I don't like your tone, so I sold you Tickets are ten times more expensive than others, one hundred gold francs, if you want to take the money, if you don’t want to go away.”

Leo didn't say much, and directly took out a cash check for one hundred gold flannels.

Seeing Leo take out such a large sum of money so casually, Bucktooth Bailey couldn't help but have a hint of greed in his eyes, but in the end he suppressed the greed in his heart, because he knew very well that his deal would What matters is reputation. Once the rules are broken, his reputation will be gone, and the deal will naturally fail.

Compared with the wealth accumulated in this no-cost business, the windfall in front of him is obviously not so attractive. What's more, just because the other party can take out one hundred gold flanges doesn't mean that the other party has more gold flanges on him.

So after weighing it over and over again, Bucktooth Bailey decided to follow the rules and not use his brain. Afterwards, he snapped his fingers at the subordinates who were staying at the side, then pointed to Leo, and said, "Send this guest to the No. 9 premium car."

Bucktooth Bailey's men came up, raised his head towards Leo, and then led Leo through some container trains parked on the platform for a while, and came to a very old container train, rhythmic He knocked on the cabin door with a coded signal.

After the hatch was opened, the people inside lowered a small staircase to signal Leo to come up, and then closed the hatch immediately. The whole process was very fast and skillful.

Bucktooth Bailey's subordinates casually pointed to the seats inside the container, and said, "Find a seat for yourself. There is a toilet inside. I can buy food here. You can't leave until you arrive in Lyon."

After speaking, he yawned, turned around and walked to the cot next to the door, and continued to sleep.

Leo looked at the situation inside the container. The situation inside was completely different from the old one outside. Bucktooth Bailey converted the inside of the container into a passenger cabin, with twenty rows of seats, which can seat sixty people. It's just an ordinary wooden seat, very simple, and it's not comfortable to sit on, but for those who want to leave this country, whether the seat is comfortable or not is not so important.

At this moment, there are already more than a dozen stowaways like Leo in the cockpit. Judging from their clothes, they should all have some assets. Since they are in a strange place and they are on the way to escape, everyone's vigilance The hearts are very heavy, no one intends to talk, and the cockpit seems very quiet.

Leo found a random place to sit down, opened the lampshade on the table, and the old-fashioned lamps made of cheap fluorite emitted a faint light. Afterwards, he took out the battle wizard's notebook and read it again, while the left hand placed under the table controlled the various forces in his body to condense into faint light spots in the palm of his hand, and kept the light spots immortal. Then it rotates according to a certain regular orbit.

After Su left, Leo escorted the refugees out of the Dibia Mountains all the way, until the refugees entered a town on the outskirts of the Dibia Mountains and were guarded by the town guards before he left.

Although there will still be some Black Forest family members and monster attacks on the road, compared to the scale of the attack that night, it is nothing to mention. Leo didn't even take action himself, and directly created shadow clones to solve them.

After going through this trip across the Dibia Mountains, Leo has a new understanding of the use of his own power. When facing the enemy, he uses his own power reasonably, uses various witchcraft and psionic skills, and finally gets The effect is far more than that of rushing up to fight directly like a melee fighter.

Take that night when the Black Forest family and monsters were besieging the refugee camp under the guidance of the last divine family of the God of Darkness. If he followed his previous fighting style, no matter how powerful he was, he could only hold one place. He would even be injured by the siege of those monsters and family members.

But he changed the way of fighting, cleverly using the trap made of magic runes and other mechanism traps, in the end not only blocked the siege, but also killed nearly two hundred family members and monsters, and during the whole battle he was like Be as relaxed as a bystander.

Having already tasted the sweetness, he naturally studied the use of the four powers of psionic power, shadow power, gluttony power and nightmare power more carefully, and finally he found that he wanted to use all kinds of power for real battles, and There will be no mistakes in the battle, not relying on the strength of various forces, but relying on his control over various forces.

In the wizard's notes that Leo saw before, there is no special method for improving mana control. All wizards are familiar with the witchcraft and mana they have mastered through a step-by-step method. There has never been a power like him. They are all leaps and bounds, and there is no body like his that possesses as many as four types of extraordinary powers.

Although no suitable method can be found from the side of the wizard, Leo can find some methods to improve the control of psionic energy from the information of the psykers in the universe where the Earth Federation is located, and some methods are also specifically aimed at multiple psionic abilities, such as The method currently used by Leo's left hand is one of the control exercises specifically for various psionic abilities.

This method does not originate from the Earth Federation. In fact, the psykers of the Earth Federation possess a single psychic power, and there is no need to use this method to improve the control of psychic power. The reason why the Earth Federation will record this method in the psionic materials open to ordinary people is because this method is relatively famous in the universe, and this psionic training method is a completely public method.

This psionic training method originated from a cosmic psionic creature named Pabu. This psionic creature was born with multiple brains and multiple hearts. According to records, there have been more than thirty brains and hearts. prabhu.

Pabu itself is not powerful, his body is very similar to the jellyfish of the old earth, and even a slightly harder object will cause fatal damage to them. However, after Pabu aroused the spiritual power, they instantly possessed a variety of different spiritual powers, and the number of spiritual powers was the same as the number of brains and hearts.

It is precisely because multiple psychic energies are stimulated at the same time that the psychic pressure and impact on Pabuh's body are several times that of ordinary psychic users. Many Pabuk committed suicide because they couldn't bear the pain while stimulating their psychic powers. up. Only a small number of Pabuk survived according to their ancient psionic training method to train their psionic control, so as to avoid the occurrence of psionic rampage and death again.

Because the Pabuks are a well-known group of wandering merchants in the universe, their people are distributed in various star fields of the Milky Way. Once a Pabuk psyker finds a better method of psychic training, it will be difficult to pass the conventional The method is to inform the clansmen of other star fields in a short time. Therefore, the Pabu people simply published their psychic training methods on the Galaxy public network for others to learn. Anyway, there are very few psychic people like them in the entire universe who have multiple psychic powers. They are not afraid that other races will use their skills Psionic training methods surpass them.

Among the information about psykers that Leo knew, there are more than 30 recorded psychic training methods of the Pabu tribe. The oldest one is a method more than 4,000 years ago, and the latest method is that he traveled two years ago. The new method was published only last year.

Leo did not use the latest psionic training method, but chose a psionic training method that appeared more than 3,000 years ago and was considered to be the most suitable for all plural psionic power holders, because the latest method often It is the most suitable psykers of the Pabuk tribe, and psykers of other races will only get twice the result with half the effort if they practice this method.

Now Leo is only using this training method for the third time, but he can already feel the smile of this training method. At least the time required for him to transform when using various witchcraft has been reduced by at least one second, and The power transition is also much smoother.

For example, one moment he used the normal psychic witchcraft air hammer, the next moment he used the witcher's seal, and the next moment he used the original shadow power, and at the same time he was able to set up a simple rune magic trap. During the process, he only needs to use his own various powers to display it, and there is no need to use the power of nightmares to neutralize the impact of mixed forces and power hysteresis caused by power conversion.

However, because the power conversion is not yet proficient, the time required for power conversion between witchcraft and shadow witchcraft is relatively longer, but the conversion of the witcher's seal and other powers imitated by the power of nightmares does not Obstacles, so Leo used the witcher's seal as an intermediate connection point, making the conversion between witchcraft and shadow witchcraft look like there is no obstacle.

In the compartment, about an hour later, the compartment door rang again according to the signal. After opening the door, two men wearing ordinary workers' clothes and carrying simple backpacks came up.

After the two men came in, they scanned the inside of the carriage, and soon fell on Leo. Then the two sat in the front and back of Leo's two rows of seats, pretending to be nonchalant, waiting for the train to drive.

Leo didn't need to look up to feel the obvious actions of these two people, and the people of the United Kingdom's intelligence department would regard him as a surveillance target, which was also expected by him, and he didn't take it to heart. Monitor yourself by two people.

In fact, when he went to the Old Upper Tavern to inquire about the train to Lyon, Leo had already expected to be included in the watch list. However, in order to reach Lyon more easily, even being watched is nothing to him.

After escorting the refugees to a safe place, Leo was ready to go directly to Lyon. It was only at this time that he realized how strict the control of the United Kingdom over the area under its jurisdiction was.

Identification is required not only to enter and exit towns and villages, but also to stay in hotels, even to ride horse-drawn carriages and trains, and to take cross-city trains requires a special ticket purchase certificate.

In addition, on every road connecting various towns, there are some temporary checkpoints that will randomly check some passing vehicles.

Although this kind of strict identity control measures will cause some troubles to residents in the United Kingdom to a certain extent, it can well control the infiltration of spies and secret agents.

However, for Leo, such strict control is obviously not conducive to his unidentified person walking in the United Kingdom, and these are just some unimportant towns. Big cities like Lanxi will have stricter inspections.

Although Leo was able to confuse others with the magic seal of the demon hunter and get away with it, the people who were deceived by the magic seal would still remember the previous things after they woke up. If this was the case, troubles would follow.

In addition, Leo also thought about avoiding the main road altogether, moving in the mountains and forests on both sides of the road, and walking directly to Lyon with his own legs.

However, having just crossed the Dibia Mountains, he didn't have the slightest liking for the mountains and forests, and he didn't want to drill into the mountains and forests from the bottom of his heart.

For this reason, he can only find other ways to go to Lyon more easily.

Through some methods, Leo heard from some local snakes that the old shoe upper tavern in Button Town had a way to smuggle out of the United Kingdom, so he came to Button Town.

However, at the moment when he entered the old shoe upper tavern, Leo easily discovered that the waiter and the owner of this tavern were both spies with his rich experience, but he didn't know which party was the spy.

For him, it doesn't matter which side the old shoe upper is the spy of, he just wants to get the way to Lyon from the old shoe upper.

However, when he left the old shoe upper tavern, he heard the conversation between the old shoe upper and his subordinates, and he naturally knew which side the old shoe upper was the spy. Although he knew that he would be included in the suspect list, just being suspected and watched would not affect his leaving here.

After another two hours or so, the carriage vibrated a few times, and slowly traveled a certain distance on the track, followed by a slight collision with another carriage, and then heard the station staff call twice, the carriage There was a crisp click at one end.

About ten minutes later, accompanied by a loud siren, the carriage moved slowly again, and the speed gradually increased. The air blowing in from the gap in the carriage also blew away the dull atmosphere in the carriage. Everyone agreed relaxed.
