The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Just when Leo was recalling the information about the sleeping lady Di Lisi, Di Lisi raised her hand and waved lightly, and saw that the surrounding mirror image instantly turned into a manor hut. From the window of the hut, you can see the wind blowing outside. It was snowing, the fireplace was lit inside the house, and all kinds of food were placed on the table, making the people in it feel inexplicably warm.

Although he knew that everything in front of him was an illusion created by Diris with her own power, but if Leo didn't use the Eye of Reality or the Power of Nightmare, it would be almost impossible to tell the truth from the fake by relying on other powers on his body alone.

Moreover, Di Lisi's use of this dream power is as proficient as breathing, and there is no trace of deliberate use of her hands and feet. Therefore, even if Leo wants to find the right way to use the power of nightmare from the other party, there is no trace. can be found.

"Please sit down." Dilith sat on the soft sofa near the fireplace, then picked up the teapot on the tea table in front, and asked Leo, "Pine needle tea, or hot juice?"

"Pine needle tea." Leo replied as he sat next to Dilith.

"Okay." Di Lisi poured a cup of tea, and the very pure cedar needle tea fragrance came from the cup. After she put down the teapot, she took a piece of sugar and a few pieces of pure cream from the jar next to her, put them into the teacup and stirred them, then handed them to Leo, saying, "Try it! Does the pine needle milk tea suit the taste of Yingge people?"

Leo took the teacup and tasted it lightly. He soon sensed something unusual, and looked at Di Lis with a serious expression.

He knew very well that the tea that Di Lisi poured was an illusion and a fake, but when he drank this cup of tea, he felt that he had really taken a sip of pine needle milk tea, and that the chaotic stomach was still digesting the book. The pine needle milk tea should be a hallucination, and what made him feel even more incredible was that he even felt the weak energy converted from the milk tea after being digested by the chaotic stomach, which meant that the milk tea that should have been a hallucination turned out to be real.

"How did you do it?" Leo asked in a deep voice without hiding his surprise and curiosity.

"You can do it if you want to." Di Lisi replied casually: "It's as natural and easy as breathing and walking."

Although Di Lisi's words sounded like showing off and boasting, Leo could feel that the other party was telling the truth without any boasting elements, and he knew very well that the real meaning of the other party's words was probably saying This ability to use her is probably innate.

Di Lisi suddenly asked, "Are you going to the Witch Gathering this time? As an assistant."

"Yes, if there are no other changes, I should be Sylvia's partner." Leo nodded and asked, "What about you? Ma'am, will you also go to the Witch Gathering?"

Di Lis shook her head and said: "No! Not everyone likes to attend those gatherings, and such gatherings are not mandatory. If it is not absolutely necessary, otherwise I will not attend any Witch Gathering. "

Leo could tell from the other party's words that this Ms. Shen Mian didn't have much sense of belonging to the Witch Troupe, and it was not difficult to hear from her words that she didn't even want to have anything to do with the Witch Troupe.

However, this made Leo wonder why the relationship between the other party and the witch group is so bad, because according to the information he has, the relationship between the other party and the witch group is not close, but it is not very bad, at least not like what he looks like now so bad.

"I feel a power similar to mine in you." Diris seemed unwilling to say too much about the witch group, so she changed the subject and said, "But you are obviously not a witch, so you can tell me about your power How did it come here?"

"My power comes from a forbidden book." Leo could feel that the other party's inquiry must have a purpose, and he was also a little curious about it, so he didn't hide it, and directly told the origin of the power of nightmare , just concealed the process and details, so as to lead to the next topic of the other party.

"Did Ye Shen sigh this book?" Ms. Shen Mian quickly said the part that Leo didn't say.

"Does your power also come from that book?" Leo could faintly guess something.

"Yes, we are all victims of this book." Di Lis smiled wryly.

From the other party's words, Leo heard two things. One thing is that Dillis obviously doesn't like his own power, and he can even say that he hates it. He thinks that gaining this power is a kind of suffering, and he is a victim.

Thinking about it carefully, it is not difficult for Leo to guess why the other party has such emotions. After all, not every witch can live as comfortably as Sylvia. After arousing their own power, many witches often They can't control the power and cause some damage or injury, and because of this, they will be hostile or hated by the people around them, and their lives may even be in danger, so this kind of witch's life in the same year is not good.

Leo thinks that this may be the main reason why Ms. Shen Mian hates the witch troupe so much and doesn't want to have anything to do with the witch troupe.

As for the second matter, it was a misunderstanding. Obviously, Ms. Shen Mian regarded Leo as her own kind, and thought that Leo had the power to create and affect dreams for the same reason as herself, so they had the same power. Such words for the victim, and this also made Leo realize that Ms. Shen Mian might know the whereabouts of Sigh of Night, or a part of Sigh of Night.

Because it is not difficult to hear from Ms. Shen Mian's words that the power of dreams in the opponent's body was obtained under the influence of the forbidden book "Sigh of the God of Night".

"You participated in this witch's gathering because of the sigh of the night god, right?" Ms. Shen Mian said to herself again.

After hearing this, Leo was a little stunned. He had never thought that this witch gathering was related to the sigh of the night god, and the lady Shen Mian in front of him should know something inside.

Although Leo wanted to know the content of the evidence, he didn't ask, but snorted vaguely, and then nodded slightly.

After seeing Leo's vague response, Di Lisi took it for granted that her guess was correct, so she continued to use a mocking tone and said: "Their way of doing things has not changed, they only use this method of throwing bait." Ways to attract others to become thugs, and even later become scapegoats, if I were you, I would not go to the witch party now, but go as far as I can."

Hearing this, Leo was silent for a moment, and then said ambiguously: "You should think how attractive the broken pages of Ye Shen's sigh are to people like us."

Di Lisi didn't speak, and after a while, she said: "If you are still alive at the Witch Gathering, you can come to Moss Ice Lake to find me, and I will tell you where the other part of the night god's sigh is. "

"Why?" Leo asked in a low voice.

Di Lisi smiled and said: "Because that thing is just a burden to me, if you can take it away, I will be very grateful to you."

"I'm not the first invitee, am I?" Leo asked again.

"You are the thirty-seventh one. All those people before died in their sleep." Di Lisi said without concealing, "But you are special, because you are like me, maybe you can succeed."

After finishing speaking, she saw her raising her hand, and the scene in front of her eyes changed. Leo was no longer in the farmhouse surrounded by snow and wind, but outside the abandoned castle. Escaping out, there are some chattering voices appearing together with the light.

"It's really powerful." Leo looked around through the spiritual net, checked again with the eye of reality and the power of nightmare, and after confirming that he had returned to reality, he murmured to himself with emotion.

Dilith's ability left a deep impression on him, and made him understand that the Witch Squad was able to continue to grow after being suppressed by the Orthodox Church for so many years, and there was indeed something extraordinary about it.

When Di Lisi raised his hand just now, he had already focused on observing every trace of energy fluctuations on the other person, and receiving it was still the same as before. There was no abnormality in the process of transforming the dream into reality, and he could not find any power to use. Mark of.

However, after carefully recalling the whole process of his entering the dream world created by Dillis and returning to reality, he also discovered some flaws in Dillis' ability. s things.

In Dillis's dream world, there are only three living people. Both Dillis and Leo appeared in this dream world through the power of dreams, and Dillis's husband, Raleigh Jon, should rely on Dilly Silk's power can maintain her body and mind in the dream world.

It can be seen from this that Diris can create a perfect dream world and become the master of that dream world, but her dream world has no living creatures. This huge flaw should also be Diris' ability. So even though Di Lisi possessed the power to control dreams, which even Leo marveled at, her status in the Witch Squad never reached its peak.

When Leo returned to the airship, he discovered through the mental network that the Diliths and their bodyguards had left, while everyone else on board, including the passengers, seemed to have collectively lost their memory.

Obviously, when Di Lisi left, she made some manipulations in the memory of these people, and what she did seemed to be related to her spy husband.

After making a guess, Leo did not continue to pursue this matter. Compared with what Di Lisi's spy husband wanted to do, he was more concerned with the part of Di Lisi's sigh of night.

There is no doubt that Dilith's ability should come from that part of Night God's Sigh, but what is worth pondering is that Di Lisi's attitude towards this part of Night God's Sigh is really weird.

Although Di Lisi is very disgusted with her own power, it should be clear from her experience that if she does not have this power, her life will be more difficult and difficult, so according to the normal situation, Di Lisi should It is better to protect the source of her power more carefully, so as not to be obtained and mastered by others, thus depriving her of her power.

But the current situation is that Di Lisi is afraid that others will not know that she has a part of the whereabouts of Night God's Sigh, so she finds more than 30 people one after another to take away that part of Night God's Sigh, even at the expense of a stranger named Leo. came in.

This eagerness to get rid of Night God's Sigh feels more like fear to Leo, she seems to be afraid of the source of her own power, so it seems that the part of Night God's Sigh that is closely related to her may be hurting her, and this kind of Damage is continuous.

"When you stare at the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you." Leo couldn't help but think of a sentence he heard when he was in the Earth Federation in the past.

Thinking about it carefully, all the things related to the madman's thirteen volumes of ancient god knowledge collected from him did not have a good result. Whether it is a person who gains power from it, or a person who only touches this knowledge, they will either die or go crazy in the end. , and now Dilis, the sleeping lady, may also be under adverse influence.

However, while thinking about it, Leo had some doubts, because no matter whether the madman is the three volumes of knowledge of the ancient gods, or the knowledge of the current gods, even the most corrosive power of the abyss, they can't have a bad effect on him. This made him even more curious about his body.

All night, Leo was quietly thinking about things in his cabin. No strange things happened in either the airship or the castle. In the morning, the airship took off on time, and the people on board, except Lei No one outside Europe realized that the airship had lost a few passengers.

When the airship continued to fly north, the route of the airship happened to pass over Ghost Mist Lake. In the restaurant, the staff of the airship introduced information about Ghost Mist Lake to the passengers who had slightly adapted to the high-altitude environment through the window.

Leo also stood by the window and looked down. He didn't know whether it was an illusion or the real situation. He could vaguely see the lady in the lake dancing on the lake in the mist.

In the early morning, the southern airflow began to move northward, and the wind was very strong. Even if the airship did not turn on the jet propulsion device, the speed of flying downwind was still very fast. At noon, it had already reached the sky above Vince County.

Vince County is just next to Pender Harbor. It is a small agricultural county common in the Maris Kingdom. When the war did not break out, it was mainly based on agriculture, and the agricultural products produced were specially used to supply the people of Pender Harbor. daily needs.

However, after the war started, all the residents of this small county had already fled, some fled to other relatively stable inland areas of the Marris Kingdom, while the other fled to Pender Harbor. Now the Revolutionary Army and the Royal Army each occupy a part of this small county, and with Vince County as the battlefield, a tug-of-war has been launched that has lasted for more than a month.

In order to build fortifications and camps, and to prevent the enemy from sneaking through dense forests, both sides chose to do the same thing in their occupied areas, cutting down forest trees to make fortifications, and building high-rise buildings in each forest. Towers are used to spy on each other.

It is also for this reason that after the airship arrived here, it was easily discovered by the opposing sides, and it caused a commotion. At the same time, the commanders of the two armies all guessed who the airship belonged to. what to do.
