The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

After the buyer was confirmed, Leo directly spread his spiritual net to check the people in the box, but the moment his spiritual net got close to the box, it was immediately washed away by a powerful interference energy.

"Huh?" After receiving the information fed back from the Spirit Network, a trace of doubt appeared on Leo's face, because it was obvious that the disturbance energy in the box was not of the same order of magnitude as the disturbance energy he felt before.

In the past, the interference energy that Leo encountered came from a very superficial energy interference device. Although this device is superficial, it can produce miraculous effects in this world and make his mental network deviate.

However, no matter how deviated, the spiritual network can still feed back some information more or less, and with the enhancement of spiritual power enthronement, the spiritual network will also become stronger, and the impact of interference energy has been weakened a lot.

But the disturbing energy in the box just now was extremely strong, and it directly dispelled his spiritual net, as if it was specially prepared for spiritual energy.

"Could it be..." This feeling made Leo suddenly think of a possibility, so he tried to use other powers in his body to replace the spiritual net, imitating it as a power similar to the spiritual net, and explored the box.

Although he still encountered some interference this time, the energy was not completely dissipated like the spirit net, but permeated into the box, but the feedback information was extremely vague, so vague that it was almost non-existent.

However, the purpose of this attempt, Leo, has been achieved, because he already knows what is interfering with his energy.

Sub-particle interference device, this is the name of the energy interference device, and its other name is the personal individual anti-psychic device.

Powerful psykers can often overturn the situation on the battlefield, so in order to deal with psykers of hostile civilizations, each cosmic civilization not only cultivates psykers of its own civilization, but also develops a large number of other psykers to deal with psychics. The anti-psychic weapon of the capable, and the sub-particle interference device is the most mature and powerful anti-psychic device among these anti-psychic weapons.

This psychic power is not very large, it is only about the size of a common silver coin in the world of Vinylon, and it is very convenient to use. You only need to stick the thing on any part of the body and pass the brain wave detection of the device to use this device.

The main energy source of this device is not only solar energy, but also bio-energy. The average individual holder can use it for a very long time without any recharging.

Its function is also very simple, that is, within a certain range around the user's body, strong spiritual interference is generated, forming an anti-spiritual energy field.

Leo had only heard of this device back then, but had never actually used it, because this device required an extremely rare crystalline ore, so the output was very scarce, and only the top figures in various civilizations could afford it.

Although Leo has never used this device, he has seen the effect of this device. He once followed an important figure of the federal government protected by more than 20 combat teams to the nearby Star Alliance to participate in a meeting. During the meeting , I encountered some psykers who came to disrupt the meeting. Among them, a fifth-level psyker wanted to kill a controversial special envoy of an alien civilization. The Federation has also become a pond fish that has been affected.

However, when the psyker used his psychic skills to attack indiscriminately, all his psychic powers suddenly became invalid, and he became like an ordinary person, and then he was killed by the alien special envoy who had been prepared for a long time. His men were killed on the spot.

At that time, Leo heard the important figures of the Earth Federation speak in a very envious tone, mentioning that the alien special envoy used the sub-particle interference device to make the psykers lose their power. All psykers have miraculous effects.

"This is a little troublesome!" Leo frowned after speculating that the other party might possess and be able to use a sub-particle interference device. Undoubtedly, if he wanted to take back his coffin, he would inevitably conflict with the other party, and the other party's The interference device will also invalidate one's own psionic energy.

It's just that although Leo felt a little troublesome, he didn't appreciate it too much, because although his power is mainly psionic energy, he is not a pure psychic user, and there are still many powers that can be used on him. , even if the psionic energy is restricted, other energies can still function normally, and powerful abilities can still be used.

At this time, Sylvia on the side also saw Leo's frowning movement, but she didn't know that Leo frowned because of the sub-particle interference device, but thought that Leo was a little worried about the ownership of the metal block. So, she said in a relieved tone: "Don't worry, there are not many people in Moonlight City who are qualified to reach the third floor, and his identity will be found out soon."

"Well! This matter will trouble you." Leo nodded, but did not tell what he just discovered.

The auction then continued. After showing the value of the first special item, the value of the items that the blood race took out was not lower than the relics of prehistoric civilization, from ancient jewelry with mysterious power to some powerful strange items. objects, and even the physical remains of a deity.

Even if this is just the physical remains of a fallen evil god, there are still a large number of people flocking to it.

Leo has no interest in the remains of the evil god's body. Having seen the remains of the gods, he knows how dangerous this thing is. Any creature below the Omega-level high-level life form will be infected by its power and mutate. Maybe some people A lucky variant is a benign variant, but the odds of that being so are extremely small.

Compared with the physical remains of the evil god, Leo is more interested in the container containing the physical remains of the evil god.

This container is somewhat like the urn used for the burial of the Saville people. It is slender and olive-shaped, with a small round lid at the top and a conical section.

An ordinary object of this shape can only be placed horizontally on the table, but this container is different. No matter how it is placed horizontally, it will stand upright like a tumbler, with the conical bottom against the table, vertically Stand upright.

Others were only surprised by the uprightness of the container and the remains of the evil god's body stored in the container, but Leo paid more attention to the patterns on the surface of the container, because he found that those patterns were a set of three-dimensional characters, and its structure was similar to that of the seal of Miria's suburbs. The stone ball in the Eye of Reality is very similar, and even the material is the same stone.

After discovering this situation, Leo was almost certain that the container was made by the wizard of the tower, and more importantly, the container was very small and could be carried with him, and he could study the mysteries of the combination of three-dimensional radicals at any time.

"Investigate his identity too!" Leo, who was interested in this container, pointed to Sylvia after the auction of the item was over, pointing to the last buyer standing at the window of the wing room, and said.

"No need to investigate, I know who he is." Sylvia only glanced at the other party, and gave the answer: "He is Lia Venistan's right-hand man, and the palace minister of the Ice and Snow Kingdom, Count Kerry Fao. "

"He is Kerry Fao?" Leo was taken aback when he heard this, and then looked at the majestic middle-aged man opposite him who didn't care about his identity being leaked.

For ordinary people, Kerry Faol is more likely to appear in their after-dinner conversations as the Queen's lover, but for those who understand the national policies and current affairs of the Ice and Snow Kingdom, Kerry Faol is definitely a great character. Statesmen and doers.

Since the Snow Queen came to the throne, she has appointed three palace ministers in total.

The first palace minister is Lazio Fran, Grand Duke of the Ice Bear, who fully supports the Queen's ascension to the throne. Although the Fran family is the Grand Duke of Deliyat, they have Fran royal blood in their blood, so they take Fran as their surname.

Lazio Faran is the seventh grand duke of this family, because he has supported the queen since she was the weakest, and supported the queen with the strength of the whole family. It can be said that the queen stepped on the shoulders of the Faran family to ascend to the throne.

Therefore, after the queen ascended the throne, she immediately made Lazio Faran as the palace minister to assist the queen in handling all the affairs of the country. It can be said that she is under one person and above ten thousand people.

It's just that when Lazio Faran reached the peak of his power, his thinking tended to be conservative, and he had a lot of conflicts with the queen who had an open mind. Finally, three years later, the queen dismissed his palace minister and sent him back to the Grand Duke's fiefdom. In this way, the family is far away from the political center of the Ice and Snow Kingdom and completely marginalized.

The second palace minister is the queen's first lover. This person is a scholar named Modiadi. From his lack of a surname, we can see his origin and status. The reason why he can become the palace minister is not only because of his lover In addition to this level of relationship, it is also because he has no background and is completely obedient to the queen, and will not have any conflicts with the queen's ideas, so this period is the period when the queen is arbitrary, also known as the palaceless phase period.

However, the Ice Queen soon discovered the serious problems caused by not having a qualified palace minister, because no one pointed out the disadvantages of the policies she implemented, making these policies that benefited the people at first turned into policies that harmed the people , caused a lot of complaints among the people, but Modiadi deliberately concealed these complaints, reporting good news but not bad news, which caused turmoil in the political situation of the kingdom.

Fortunately, the Ice Queen found out in time and directly executed her first lover, and pushed some policy issues to Modiadi, thereby calming down most of the public grievances.

Afterwards, the Snow Queen found her third palace minister and new lover, that is, Kerry Fao.

The Faol family that Cree Faol belongs to is a veteran noble of the Ice and Snow Kingdom. They have been from the Ice and Snow Kingdom for generations, and they are married to all the nobles in Deliyat, so almost all the nobles in the Ice and Snow Kingdom have the Faol family. His bloodline, its influence is naturally self-evident.

It's just that the patriarch of the previous generation of the Fao family took the wrong side in the battle for the throne of the Ice and Snow Kingdom, and he once humiliated the Ice and Snow Queen verbally, so when the Queen came to the throne, their family was severely suppressed. If it weren't for their family's considerable influence in the aristocratic circle of the Ice and Snow Kingdom, maybe there would be no Faol family now.

It is also because of this that the patriarch of the previous generation of the Fao family fell ill and died in fear and grief. Kerry Fao also became the patriarch of the Fao family under such circumstances.

After becoming the patriarch, Kerry Fao changed the previous conservative practice of the Fao family, actively catered to some policies of the Queen, and cooperated with the implementation of some policies to please the Queen.

This approach has indeed had an effect. Some of the policies implemented by the Queen touch the interests of the nobles, which makes the local nobles extremely uncooperative and the policies cannot be implemented. However, there is such a place among all local policies. Always be able to implement the policy through and achieve the goal perfectly. It is difficult for the Ice Queen to pay attention to this kind of political achievement.

So after that, Kerry Fao was called into the palace by the Queen to serve as an attendant to the palace minister and assist Modiadi, who had not lost his life at that time, to handle government affairs.

While serving as an attendant, Kerry Fao had some feelings for the queen, and then became the queen's guest. When Modiadi was executed, Kerry Fao was also carried to the The location of the palace.

Everyone originally thought that Kerry Fao was also a Modiadi, but what he didn't expect was that he showed extraordinary talent after becoming the palace minister.

He neither opposed the Queen's decree like Lazio Faran, nor flattered the Queen like his predecessor. Instead, he seemed to be a very qualified politician to assist the Queen in handling every decree. Before the decree was implemented, he not only pointed out the Queen's decree During the implementation period, I went to all parts of the country to lobby the local nobles to cooperate, confirm the implementation of the decree, and so on.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Ice Queen's decrees can be perfectly implemented, and the national strength of the Ice Kingdom can be steadily improved. Kerry Fao's assistance can be said to account for 80% of the success, and the Ice Queen also knows this, and she is not stingy about it. Its praise, more than once called it an indispensable arm.

The reason why Leo, who doesn't care much about politics, knows Kerry Fao is mainly because when the old man Rembrandt was chatting in Miria City, he once mentioned the world's most outstanding A political figure, and Kerry Fao is considered by him to be the best politician in the world of Velen, not one of them.

When getting along with the old man Rembrandt, Leo could clearly feel that although the old man Rembrandt looked easy-going on the surface, he was a very proud person in his bones. There were very few people who could be seen by him, but Kerry Fao was the only one he praised so much, which also made Leo remember this person and his special identity.

"Why is he here?" Leo couldn't help asking after seeing this big man in the Ice and Snow Kingdom.

"I don't know, maybe it's for Her Majesty the Queen." Sylvia shrugged and said, "As far as I know, that person is currently studying the mysteries of the gods."
