The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 476 Old Johns Fort

In the early experiments of the Earth Federation, there were some whimsical ideas, such as borrowing the body cells of Omega-level advanced life forms or psykers to artificially promote the life evolution of ordinary people, but the final results were without exception. People who have entered the genes of higher life forms either become lunatics with split personalities, or have uncontrollable mutations in their bodies.

Undoubtedly, such experimental results are also applicable to the Velen world, and the best example is the mutant monsters in the cage city dungeon.

Although there are also Ability God cells in the world of Vinylon, which are magical items that cannot be fully explained by science, the implantation of Ability God cells is also regular. First of all, there must be genes that contain extraordinary power in the body of the implanter, and this The power of this gene must also be compatible with the implanted alien cells, otherwise, it will eventually be unable to escape the two results of mutation and death.

"It can be sold for money." Mira interrupted suddenly: "I know that someone is collecting some special blood. I believe that this blood of the gods can be sold for a good price. If you trust me, just give it to me. I can sell one. Great price."

"How tall is it?" Su said disdainfully.

Mira then reported an approximate number, and said that this may be the minimum number, and the final number will only be above this number.

Hearing the number reported by Mira, even the well-informed Su couldn't help showing a dark expression of surprise, and Leo was also a little surprised.

"Who is this? This number is equivalent to the tax revenue of the United States and Canada for half a year last year." Su asked curiously: "There are not many people who can spend so much money?"

"Medical school." Mira didn't hide anything, and directly reported the buyer's name, but perhaps felt that it was not accurate, and added: "The Life Society of the medical school."

"Life Society?" Su was stunned, thought for a while, and said, "Is there such a society in the medical school?"

Mira replied: "Is it the new society after the fusion of the former Society of Microscopic Medicine and the Society of Extraordinary Life?"

"The Institute of Microscopic Medicine, the Institute of Extraordinary Life, what are these?" Su was completely at a loss.

"In short, it is a new school that came out after the split of the medical school." Mira was not interested in explaining, so she casually said something.

As the events in Miria City fermented, the School of Medicine became torn apart. Although the names of many Schools of Medicine were still affiliated with the School of Medicine, they were actually separated. Each of these Schools had their own Resources and treasury, the accumulation of medical schools over the years is amazing, and it is not difficult to be able to spend half a year's tax revenue of a country.

"What do you think?" Although Leo said just now that he would give the thing to him, Su didn't make his own claim, let alone take the thing as his own, so he asked Leo.

"Which country do they belong to?" Leo asked after thinking about it.

"No country, they call themselves without borders." Mira replied.

Su seemed to have heard of the name People Without Borders before, his face became a little more serious, and he asked in a deep voice, "Are you one of them?"

"No." Mira shook her head and said, "When I left Mosang, they helped me and invited me to join, but I didn't agree with their ideas, so I didn't agree."

"You know this man without borders?" Leo asked.

Su said: "Before coming to the Kingdom of England, there was a riot in the province of Megalica and Para. The people who caused the riot claimed to be people without borders."

Mira frowned and said, "It shouldn't be them, they are just a group of medical researchers."

Su didn't believe Mira's words, and said: "Pure medical researchers are not scary, what is scary are medical researchers with crazy ideas, don't forget the city of Miria."

Although Mira didn't think those people she knew were the rioters that Su said, she didn't refute Su's statement either.

After thinking for a while, Leo picked up the bottle in Su's hand and handed it to Mira, saying, "I want cash, not credit."

Seeing the decision Leo made, Su opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Mira took the bottle and put it carefully in the leather pouch at her waist. Just as she was about to say something, there was a shout from the deck, and the siren of the arrival port sounded. It seemed that she had arrived. joshburg.

Fort Josh is located in the middle of the Josh County Great Swamp. It is one of the few areas in the Great Swamp that has solid land, so that it can support the heavy buildings on the ground so that it will not gradually sink due to the weight.

However, as far as the location is concerned, this place is not suitable as the capital of a province, because the transportation here is not convenient. People want to get in and out of Joshburg, and they can only rely on the latest floating airship besides relying on ships. As for walking by land, except for the really poor, few people would do it because it is too dangerous and too slow.

The people who first built a town in Joshburg did so because the land was located in the middle of the swamp, and it was difficult to get in and out of the swamp. They didn’t have to worry about being besieged by the kingdom’s army, because all the people who chose to settle in Joshburg were either kingdom criminals or escaped slaves. , they naturally think that the more secluded the living environment, the better.

The piece of land where Fort Joshua is located is actually composed of three pieces of land. One is Old Fort Joshua, which is also the largest of the three lands. The next piece of land was converted from the earliest farmland into a wharf and commercial area because it is close to the Mines River.

After Leo and his party went ashore, the free Heel Bundy did not leave immediately, but asked Willis to join the Wolf Gang, and even gave the Lucky Star to the Wolf Gang.

The reason why Heel Bundy did this was to seek shelter from the Wolf Gang. Although he has just come into contact with the dark world these days and doesn't know anything about it yet, he can already confirm one thing, the murloc that appeared before came for him, he has become a sacrifice, and more importantly What's more, these murlocs won't let him go, and I'm afraid they will appear again in the future, and there won't be a group of werewolves to help him solve this big trouble.

Therefore, at that time, he immediately thought of joining the wolf gang and seeking its protection. After all, as an ordinary person, he could only see that the power displayed by the wolf gang that night was very strong, enough to deal with those murlocs.

Willis didn't want to accept Heel Bundy's initiative to join at first, because this guy is a big trouble, and a group of murlocs will come to arrest him anytime and anywhere. He doesn't want his gang to get involved in the affairs of the gods. In the middle, it will be damaged for no reason.

But then Mira suggested that he keep Heel Bundy, because Heel Bundy is a descendant of God with the blood of the gods, and he can have many uses in the future.

Although Willis didn't understand what it was useful for, he still followed Mira's suggestion and took in Heel Bundy.

I am also very happy about taking over Bundy's heel, and I am extremely grateful to Meera who made this happen. It's just that he didn't know that the reason why Mira asked Willis to take him in was because of his blood. Since Leo could extract a little divine blood from his blood, he could also extract new divine blood. , she already had a plan in her heart to treat the sale of divine blood as a long-term business.

After the group got off the boat, they went directly to Old Josh Fort without stopping in New Josh Fort.

Originally, the land of Old Joshburg and New Joshfort were linked together, which could be regarded as the two ends of a piece of land, but since the old Joshburg was abandoned, the connecting road has been overgrown with weeds, plus several swamps No one cleared the road during the tide, so the road was gradually swallowed up by the swamp and became part of the swamp. Now, if you want to go from New Joshburg to Old Joshburg, you must take a shuttle-shaped boat called a Kapi boat locally.

Old Josburg was left unused for a long time after it was abandoned, but in recent years, because some people have written the grievances of Josburg into a drama and put it on the stage, Josburg has gradually become famous, and it has also made Some curious tourists come here to travel.

However, in recent months, some strange things have happened suddenly in Old Joshua Fort, and some tourists have been injured as a result, making Old Joshua Fort become a taboo place again.

After Leo and his party boarded the land of Old Johnsburg, the boats that sent them over said that they would pick them up before dark, and let them wait here then, and reminded them repeatedly that if they If they couldn't come back in time, the boat wouldn't wait for them, and they would have to wait until the next morning to pick them up, or risk walking through the long and narrow swampy road that was nearly five kilometers away.

In this regard, Willis directly asked the ship owners to pick them up tomorrow morning, and then led Leo and the others towards Old Johns Fort.

The land area occupied by Old Josh Fort is the sum of the commercial dock area and New Josh Fort. It not only includes the castle of Josh Fort itself, but also includes a small forest and a small artificially dug lake.

However, because no one has cleared the silt all year round, the lake has become a swamp, and the forest has grown in strange shapes because it has not been built. It looks better during the day, but it adds a bit of horror at night, plus some monsters The swamp creatures that live in it make it rare for even the most daring visitor to stay here at night.

Passing through a small forest, a group of people walked on a small road with faintly recognizable traces. I don't know if it was because of the surrounding environment or because the time itself was already very late. Everyone present felt that the surrounding atmosphere had become a little bit gloomy.

For the members of the wolf gang, such a gloomy atmosphere will not affect them, but their keen perception makes them feel that there is something strange around them all the time, but they don't know where the strangeness is, so their emotions are also disturbed. Therefore, they became a little impetuous. If Willis hadn't suppressed them here, maybe they would have turned into werewolves and fought each other.

Compared to these werewolves, Leo, Su, and Mira clearly knew what was going on around them better, but they saw different situations through their respective powers.

Mira saw it most directly. She found that the trees in the forest grew naturally to create a very special environment. This environment was somewhat similar to her Emerald Dream, but the power contained therein was vastly different. This discovery It also made her more and more affirmed her previous guess that Death Valley is a fragment of the Emerald Dream.

But what Su saw was another thing. The entire forest was surrounded by a shadow realm that penetrated into reality. She could even see some special creatures that only existed in the shadow realm. Here, she felt that her strength had increased by at least double.

As for, what Leo saw was a rune magic circle, yes, it is not the root of Turing, but a rune magic circle from Lake Town in the dream world, whether it is the location of the castle or the location of every tree in the forest , are all carefully arranged, they together form a rune magic circle covering the entire Old Johnsburg, and according to his method of observing this rune magic circle is much better than his method of rune magic circle, obviously this kind of The method is also more mature.

"Is Death Valley in Old Johnsburg?" On the way, Su couldn't help asking Willis.

"No." Willis shook his head and said, "But one entrance is in Fort Josh."

Saying that, Willis looked around with some discomfort, and quickened his pace.

Because of the werewolf breath, some dangerous creatures in the forest did not come out to make trouble, and the group arrived outside Josh Fort without any danger.

Although many years have passed, the corrosion of the swamp and the damage caused by some plants have caused many parts of the castle to collapse. The appearance of the castle is riddled with holes, but it must be admitted that the castle is indeed very large , at least it doesn't need to be much worse than those very formal knight castles in the French Empire, and it can definitely be ranked in the top ten in the Kingdom of England.

Measured by ordinary strength, it is almost impossible to break through the castle from the outside, and that's why the surprise attack from inside the castle was presumably used that kind of trick back then.

Although the interior of the castle has not been repaired, the castle door has been replaced, but even so, the bottom of this newly replaced door is completely decayed due to humidity.

After pushing the door open, everyone entered the castle. Everyone thought that the temperature would rise after entering the castle, but they didn't expect the temperature inside the castle to be colder than outside. Some people could even see their exhaled air in front of their eyes. It turned into hoarfrost, and it was still afternoon at this time.

"Go collect dry firewood and light a bonfire in the square. We will spend the night here tonight." Willis ordered loudly to his subordinates.

Someone suggested: "Boss, why don't we go there..."

"If you want to die, go there and stay by yourself." Willis grabbed the proposed person, roared viciously, threw him to the ground, and shouted at everyone: " What are you still doing standing here, let me act immediately."
