The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 304: A Secret Group Studying Gods

"What did the Medical Association find?" The crow said mysteriously.

Leo couldn't understand the crow's words at all, so he asked a little, "What did you find?"

Crow also felt that what he said was too simple, so he explained carefully: "Two years ago, some powerful figures in the medical school suddenly united to form a secret group, and divided most of the resources of the medical school, and became the medical school. It is a relatively independent research institution inside. No one knows what this institution is researching. They just know that the research funds of this institution account for more than 80% of the research funds of the entire medical school. It was not until recently that my people found out that they were studying gods. "

"Study the gods?" Leo didn't feel ridiculous about this matter, but said very seriously: "Since it is a research with objects, it means that they must have research materials on hand. Where did they get the research materials? , don’t tell me that the Eye of Truth is their research material.”

"Of course it's impossible. The Eye of Truth is just an arrogant idiot. He can't even be considered a false god. How could he be a god?" When the Eye of Truth was mentioned, the crow showed a strong disdain It seemed that there was some unknown secret in it, but it quickly hid its emotions, and got down to business: "This is also what I want you to investigate. According to the information collected by my subordinates, the person who initiated this secret group His name is William Byron, the blood wizard Lawrence is his student, and he proposed the earliest blood therapy..."

"Hmm!" Leo suddenly interjected, "I seem to hear something!"

The crow nodded and said, "Indeed, as you think, Lawrence is just a scapegoat. The person who really used ordinary people to conduct blood therapy experiments was William Byron."

Leo asked again: "Is this William Byron very powerful in the medical school? Can someone replace such a big crime?"

"Of course the power is great. The founder of the medical school, Brydon, is named Byron. The Byron family is also the first family of the medical school. Nearly half of the members of the medical school council are from Byron, and most of the other half are related to Byron. The family is inextricably linked.”

The crow explained, and then got back to business: "According to the intelligence, before William Byron returned to the medical school and persuaded the senior management of the medical school to establish a secret group, he went deep into the wasteland and found some things from the wasteland. Dongxi regained the trust of the medical school and successfully established a secret group that mainly studies gods, what I want to know is what did he find in the wasteland?"

"What's in the wasteland?" Leo asked curiously.

"There is everything." The crow explained: "No one knows how big the wasteland is, and no one knows where the end of the wasteland is. Even the most powerful wizard has never stepped out of the wasteland."

"Are you kidding?" Leo couldn't help laughing after hearing what the crow said.

"Of course I'm not joking," the crow asked resentfully, "Why do you think I'm joking?"

"This world is..." Leo was about to use the geographical knowledge he had learned to refute the crow's so-called boundless wilderness theory, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly realized that maybe he had made a mistake. Because he thought of something that he had noticed before but never paid attention to. This thing is that the horizon of this world is flat.

On the boat in Lavinaya Port, Leo once looked at the sea level through the window, and the sea level he saw was a flat line, and the ships passing in the distance changed from blurred to clear as a whole What appeared in sight was that he was thinking about other things at that time, so he didn't take this matter to heart.

Now when he was about to refute the crow's words, he suddenly thought of this matter. According to the analysis of this situation, either the planet where the Velen world is located is beyond imagination, or the Velen world is a flat land.

However, now Leo prefers that this world is an extremely huge planet, because only in this way can the saying that the wasteland is boundless be true, and only in this way will the basic common sense that the natural stars in the universe are all round .

"What is this world?" Seeing that Leo's words had just begun and then stopped abruptly, the crow asked puzzled.

"Nothing." Leo responded vaguely, and instead of entangled in this issue, he returned to the subject and said, "Is the secret group established by William Byron in the Kingdom of England now?"

"No, I don't know where the headquarters of that secret group is." The crow shook his head and said, "However, I know that the Eye of Truth was transported to the Kingdom of England by them. There is a secret laboratory in the town, and Sarkshire is an inherent territory of the British royal family, so that laboratory is likely to be supported by the British royal family."

"Is the British royal family involved?" Leo frowned.

"You also know that although the national fortune and status of the Kingdom of England have been booming over the years, the status of the royal family of England has been getting lower and lower, and it is almost like a mascot," Crow explained: "Most people in the royal family may be safe. Due to the status quo, there are also many people who are not reconciled to the current status of the royal family, but they can't find a way to seize power, so they can only resort to other methods, such as activating the blood of the gods in their bodies to become the family of the Sea God."

Leo asked with interest: "Is there really a blood of the gods in the royal family of England?"

"Of course." The crow gave an affirmative answer, "But it's already very thin, and it may be difficult to stimulate the blood through self-awakening."

At this time, Leo thought of some things he had learned in Miria City, and couldn't help but said: "I remember that the French Empire seems to be studying things about gods with the medical school."

The crow seemed to have something to say, and said: "This is not surprising. The medical school is a worldwide organization. There are people from any country in it, so it can cooperate with any country." After finishing speaking, it couldn't wait "You asked so many questions, so now should you tell me your decision?"

Leo thought about it for a while, nodded and said: "I can help you investigate this matter, but the premise is that it does not affect my affairs. In addition, I don't guarantee that there will be results. I can only investigate as much as possible."

"Very good, that's enough! I believe you will be able to investigate something useful." After receiving Leo's answer without any guarantee, the crow showed more confidence than Leo, and then said: "Now Let me tell you about your reward first, there is a high tower in Berkshire in the Kingdom of England..."

Leo was stunned when he heard the words, then interrupted the crow and said, "You don't mean the tower of Francis Drake, the Earl of Pirates, do you?"

"Ah? Did you already know?" Crow looked at Leo in surprise.

Leo explained: "I got a notebook from the Battle Wizard from Sue Stewart of the Witches, and that notebook originated from Earl Drake."

"So that's how it is." The crow showed a stunned expression, and then said with some annoyance: "Since you already know, then I will change the reward now..."

"No need, just this!" Leo stopped the crow from changing his mind, and said, "Although I know Francis Drake is a tower wizard, I don't know where the tower in Berkshire is."

"That's right! That's good." The crow nodded, and continued what he said just now, saying: "There is a village called Leeds on the border between Berkshire and Sarkshire. There is a cape cliff that sinks into the sea. over there."

"In the sea?" Leo frowned.

"No, on the cliff." The crow explained: "Sinking into the bottom of the sea is just an illusion," it said, it paused for a moment, and said: "However, don't expect too much from that tower, because Drey Although Ke is a tower wizard, he is not an orthodox wizard. He just accidentally became a member of the tower wizard because of certain things. , so there is no protection for the high tower he built, and it is unknown how many are left after all these years."

"It doesn't matter!" With the improvement of his psychic level, Leo needs to master more and more power and knowledge, which makes him pay less attention to the tower, so whether he can learn from Drake? He behaved indifferently that there was something to be gained from the earl's tower.

After negotiating this matter, the crow told Leo several ways to contact it. Once he got the news from Sarkshire, he could tell it through this channel, and this communication channel did not need to go through the Holy Blood Society. For other departments, you can contact it directly.

Seeing that the discussion was over, the crow didn't stay long, and just flew away. After the crow left, Leo was thinking about how to investigate this matter while exercising his ability to control his psychic power.

Naturally, Leo didn't think about going directly to Sarkshire to investigate. This straightforward approach would only cause some unnecessary trouble, and might even alarm the royal family of England.

Although the crow shows disdain for the current status of the British royal family, it is undeniable that the British royal family, as a symbol of the British kingdom, still has a lot of power and influence. Once there is a conflict with the British royal family, he may be very It is difficult to continue to stay in the Kingdom of England. This is not the result he would like to see, or it is not the result his predecessor would like to see.

Because of the influence of his predecessor, Leo always had a special feeling for the Kingdom of England, hoping to settle down in the Kingdom of England. A fixed home, so the possibility of being deported from the country is not within his consideration.

Leo thought that since he could not directly enter Sark County for investigation by forceful means, he could only enter Sark County through other non-dangerous means, such as asking the medical school of Sark County to invite him.

This idea is not Leo's delusion. In his opinion, the chance of realizing this idea should be very high.

Because his friends Victor Matthew and Catherine Nightingale are well-known members of the medical school, their reputation can have some influence on some powerful figures in the medical school, and the wound suture technology has made him already in the medical school. The academy has left some reputation, all he has to do is to expand this reputation, and to expand in the direction that the mysterious group that studies the gods wants to see.

For example, the blood type theory, this theory perfectly fits blood therapy, I believe that as long as he announces this theory, it will definitely attract the attention of William Byron, and then he will show some research on heterogeneous blood, then Getting invited to medical school shouldn't be a problem.

After figuring out what to do, Leo stopped spending energy on this matter, but concentrated on studying how to use the ring in his hand to quickly improve his control.

After spending the night safely, Leo retired from the hotel room, went to the pier according to the time on the ticket, and found the boat to take.

The Queen Mary is a cruise ship of the Kingdom of England, which belongs to the Platinum Chamber of Commerce. Like most ships at sea today, this ship is also a half-steam and half-sail vessel transformed from a three-masted sailing ship.

Because of the Sea God Festival, Venaya City has accumulated a large number of passengers going to the Kingdom of England, and the Queen Mary is also full. Leo can only share a cabin with three other people after boarding. Fortunately, the ship owner had experience in dealing with such things, so he separated everyone's berths with wooden boards and made a temporary small room, so that the passengers in the cabin did not have to face several strangers all day long.

After Leo entered the cabin, the people in the same cabin with him stretched out their heads to look at Leo, and then retracted their heads without saying hello, and closed the simple wooden door.

The indifferent attitude of these people was also in line with Leo's intentions. After he entered his cabin, he also closed the door, sat quietly on the bed, and continued to improve his control according to his method.

About an hour later, all the passengers had boarded the ship, and the goods had been brought up. With the sound of a siren, the ship slowly left the port. After leaving the pier and entering the deep waters, the steam engine stopped. With the shouts of the chief officer, the sailors lowered the sails and sailed slowly on the sea relying on the force of the wind.

"Damn profiteer!" At this moment, the passenger in the room next to Leo felt the speed of the ship slowed down, cursed immediately, pushed open the simple wooden door, and walked out of the warehouse quickly.

After a while, I heard him come in cursing, cursing repeatedly: "These profiteers are too much. In order to make room for the cargo, not only the cabins of us passengers are squeezed, but even the fuel cabins are occupied. Now, it’s going to be propelled by sails, are we on an old boat from ten years ago?”

As the cursing sounded, the other two passengers in the room seemed to resonate, and they walked out of the room one after another, joining in cursing the ship owner and the Platinum Chamber of Commerce.
