The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"How much do you know about Aishali Forest?" When Sylvia was still immersed in the important information from Leo's head, Leo suddenly asked again.

"I don't know much." Sylvia shook her head slightly, and said, "The previous two homecoming ceremonies I participated in were all walking on the edge of the Aishali Forest, and I didn't go deep into the interior. But the witches in the past would put They wrote down their experience in the Aishali Forest, although these things may not be useful, but they can be used as a reference." Then, she stood up, walked outside, and said: "I'll take it Bring it for you to see."

For Sylvia's kindness, Leo had no intention of refusing, although Sylvia repeatedly mentioned that the Aishali Forest is always changing, and every time he enters it will be different from the previous Aishali Forest. It may not be useful, but Leo still feels that it is better to read the relevant information than not to read it.

After waiting for a while, Sylvia walked in holding a huge book that was about one meter long, half a meter wide, and more than twenty centimeters thick, and Selan, the fire bather, followed behind her.

Sylvia put the book in her hand on the table, and then explained: "This ceremony, Selan will enter the Aishali Forest with me. Since we are discussing the establishment of the Aishali Forest, naturally we can't forget her." So I called her here, do you mind?"

"It's okay." Leo didn't open the book immediately, but looked at Seran, who was bathing in the fire, and asked, "Did Miss Seran not invite an assistant?"

Seran shook his head and said coldly, "There is no one you can trust."

Leo didn't ask any more questions. He turned the huge book on the table in the opposite direction, and then opened the cover made of a whole piece of animal skin from an unknown beast.

The first thing that catches the eye is nine cursive characters written in different ancient languages. It can be seen that the nine witches who wrote these words are all quite knowledgeable. Based on their ancient identities, they should belong to some great nobles. lady.

In addition to the name written above, there is also an ancient French proverb, its meaning is to live in shackles, or to be free to die. Although there is no other more information above, this proverb is enough for Leo to imagine what kind of difficulties the nine witches who wrote this note encountered at the time.

Leo's reading speed is very fast, even if the pages of this book are large, the time his eyes stay on a page of the book is only a few tens of seconds at most.

With such a fast reading speed, Sylvia and Seran, who were watching this scene, doubted whether Leo had really read all the content in the book, or just wanted to find out from this book. what he's interested in.

Although Leo read it quickly, the book was too big, so it took him more than two hours to read the entire book.

After closing the book, he couldn't help frowning, as if he was not very satisfied with the contents of the book.

As Sylvia said, the situation in the Aishali Forest is very special. Every time a witch enters the forest, the situation she encounters is completely different. All the contents recorded in this notebook have confirmed this.

This notebook records all kinds of things that one hundred and forty-seven witches encountered when they entered the Aishali Forest, and the location of each witch after entering is different, and the location and environment are also different. The species are still different, and even the monsters that attack them are all different.

This means that this notebook is purely a note for recording things, and the content in it does not have any reference value.

But even so, it does not mean that this notebook is really worthless, because there is another secret hidden in this notebook that no one can discover except Leo. This secret is that the Aishali Forest is not real. forest, but a special forest space.

From this collection of witches' experiences in Aishali Forest, Leo found that the forests that some witches encountered were not the forests of Velen World, but forests on certain planets in the universe, and the monsters they encountered were all from that planet. Unique monster.

For example, when a witch enters, she enters a forest full of huge fungi, and encounters a large number of pig-like monsters in that forest. This fungus forest is the same as a very special Earth Federation colonization in Leo's memory. The stars are similar, and the witch also left the images of the entire forest and monsters in the form of paintings, so that Leo can easily compare the results.

Several other witches also recorded a forest that Leo encountered in the universe. These forests are suitable for human habitation without exception.

According to these contents, Leo further judged that the so-called Aishali Forest is just a passage space, and it points to every planet in the universe that is inhabited by humans. Every time the passage is opened, the passage space of Aishali Forest will be Randomly choose a cosmic forest to coincide with the location, this is why the witch is different every time she enters the forest.

This discovery made Leo feel very excited, because if it was true, then he would be able to find out the mystery of the transformation of different forests in the Aishali Forest through research on the Aishali Forest, so that he would have the opportunity to find the universe. coordinates of other planets in the universe, and then be able to leave here and return to the civilization of the universe.

Although he was a little excited in his heart at the moment, it didn't show on his face, on the contrary he looked very calm.

Sylvia curled her lips and said, "How? I'm right! These things have no reference value."

"This book has no reference value for Aishali Forest, but it has a lot of valuable things for you witches." Leo shook his head, flipped through a few pages, and found a paragraph , pointed and said: "Look at the content of this text."

Sylvia turned the book to look at the text, and Seran, who was bathing in the fire, also looked at it curiously.

I saw that this text mainly described a battle experience. The witch who described this experience obviously had no writing style to speak of. The writing was very jerky, and used a lot of local slang, and there were a lot of spelling mistakes.

A passage like this, if Leo hadn't pointed it out, neither Sylvia nor Seran would have thought to take a second look, but now after Leo pointed it out, they resisted the discomfort of reading and read this paragraph seriously. After reading the text, surprise expressions appeared on their faces, because they all found that this text, which they thought was not worth reading, contained such amazing value.

While describing the battle with a certain monster in the forest, this text also detailed the fighting skills used by the witch, and the most important thing is that the witch is not a witch with awakened blood, her There is no limit to the strength of this combat technique used, as long as it is a witch, it can be used by this technique, and judging from the text description, this technique is very powerful.

Although they felt that this fighting technique specially developed for witches was real, Sylvia and Seran still had some doubts, so after reading this text, they both chose to try to use this fighting technique.

I saw that as they used the witch power in their blood according to the method on the record, a ball appeared on the palms of the two of them almost at the same time. Sylvia's ball was transparent, while Seran's ball It is light red.

Seeing how easily this witch's unique abilities and skills were displayed, Sylvia and Seran didn't know what to say for a while, and stared blankly at the energy ball in their hands.

However, when they came back to their senses, turned their heads to look at Leo, and wanted to ask Leo if there were other skills suitable for witches recorded in the book, they were all stunned, looking at Leo's palm with a look on their faces. An unbelievable expression, because a pitch-black energy ball floated on Leo's palm, which was clearly the effect of using the witch's unique skills.

"Are you a witch too?" Seran couldn't help asking, but after asking, she felt that she had asked a stupid question again.

"I just imitated the witch's power with special power, but compared with yours, I use the witch's unique skills in this way, which consumes more power, and the power may be greatly reduced." Leo found out the witch through the spirit net. There are some special features in the use of power, and he imitated this witch's skill through the power of nightmare, but after the spirit net swept the energy ball in the hands of the three, he was quite disappointed and dispersed the energy ball in his hand, explaining.

"Your strength is much stronger than before." Seeing that Leo could easily imitate the witch's unique skills, Sylvia couldn't help but express emotion, and said disappointedly: "But I'm still standing still. .”

"You are different from me, the power of your bloodlines has not really been stimulated," Leo comforted Sylvia, and said, "Once your bloodlines are fully awakened, your strength will increase rapidly , Let alone catch up with me, even surpassing me is not difficult."

For Leo's comfort, Sylvia just smiled and didn't seem to agree with Leo's statement.

After the two witches dispersed the energy ball in their hands, Leo asked again: "If we enter the Aishali Forest, will we disperse to different places, or..."

"If you and I perform the blood-giving ceremony, then our blood will be connected, and we should appear in the same place." Sylvia explained seriously: "But Seran may be separated by a certain distance, but I have a way to make this distance not very long, and then just hurry up and join her."

Afterwards, Leo asked a few more questions about the Aishali Forest, and discussed with the two witches about the way of cooperation and other matters, until Sarah's voice sounded in the room, reminding that it was time for the meal, and the conversation between the few people stopped. Finish.

The three of them walked out of the room and came to the inquiry room of the castle. At this time, several people were already sitting on the circular round table. Apart from Saran and the banshee, there were three witches Leo had never seen before, but From the obvious attire of the three, Leo could vaguely guess who the three were.

Because the influence of the Orthodox Holy See began to weaken, the governments of various countries began to suppress the power of the Orthodox Church and even the church, so that some existences that were originally regarded as heretics began to emerge, and even began to cooperate with institutions and forces that had hunted them down, such as Sylvie. Ya became the arbiter of the Orthodox Church as Baron de Maupassant.

The three witches in front of me are all witches whose identities are almost public. Among the witches' information collected on the black market, the information of these three in front of them can be said to be the most.

Rain Priest Kajalan, Sand Witch Jiji, and Wind Vesha are not well-known in other continents, but they are well-known in the Minsk continent, especially in the Savile Kingdom, because the three of them Everyone is the Kingdom Advisor of the Savile Kingdom and has great power.

During the period of the three of them, they led the design, excavation and construction of the Cagar Canal in the Kingdom of Savile, connecting the seven unconnected rivers from the north and the south of the Kingdom of Savile, making the Kingdom of Savile more than half out of thin air. The fertile land of this country also drives the north-south trade of the entire kingdom, so they have a very high reputation in the civil and political circles of the Savile Kingdom.

As for the three of them in the dark world of the Savile Kingdom, they are also very famous. They are called the three dead ladies by the people in the dark world of the Savile Kingdom.

Although none of the three are witches who have awakened bloodlines, because of their special abilities, they are especially suitable for use in the desert environment, and the three of them act together and cooperate with each other, making their actual combat power very powerful. What's more important is that their abilities have that kind of large-scale lethality, and every time they are used together, they will cause a large number of casualties. Over time, the three of them have become famous in the dark world.

However, after Leo entered the hall, his attention was not on the three witches, but on the assistant standing behind the three witches. Without any thought, Leo had already learned from the three witches. Based on the energy fluctuations, it was judged that the three of them should be the ones who destroyed the documents in the archive room.

These three people all have a set of high eyebrows, deep eye sockets, high nose bridge, thin face, and skin polished by wind and sand all the year round. All kinds of obvious features show that they should all be Saviles.

From the reverent eyes of the three of them looking at the witches ahead, it is not difficult to see that the three of them should not be friends of the witches, but just three people who are extremely loyal to them. From this, it can be imagined that the final destination of the three of them may be doomed.

He came to the round table with Sylvia and Seran, and instead of standing behind the witch's chair like the three Saviles, Leo directly pulled the chair beside Sylvia and sat on it.

Leo's actions didn't surprise Sylvia, because she had already guessed that Leo would do such things from Leo's character, but in the eyes of other witches, Leo's actions clearly exceeded their expectations. Predictably, their eyes all fell on Leo for a while, not knowing what to say.

"You, how are you qualified to sit at this table?" When everyone came back to their senses, before Saran could speak, the three witches from the desert country couldn't help asking.
