Struggle in the Steam Age

"You finally came back, I thought you were going to leave me behind." Just as Lawrence squeezed into the basement with a few heavy chairs he found from a house, Miss Ratman looked a little excited. Speaking to him.

　　 "I said I'm here to help you, I definitely won't give up halfway." Lawrence smiled, then asked. "By the way, do you still have physical strength?"

　　 "Of course there is." Miss Ratman said surely. "I just hung up for three hours, and my whole body is full of vitality. If I need my cooperation, tell me quickly. Now I feel that my breakfast is about to be poured out."

　　 "Don't be so excited." Lawrence dissuaded him, and then used the chair he had brought down to build a simple frame and climbed up, while one hand touched the shoulder of the rat man in front of him.

　　 "There is no problem now." Seeing that the [protection from evil] magic that he had blessed on his body before and is still maintained did not respond, Lawrence was finally relieved in his heart. Then he climbed to the top of the pile of stools and motioned to the rat man to grab his waist and push up to loosen the noose, and then untied the noose that hung the rat man ankle.

　　 "Ha, it's okay at last." The rat man who climbed down the pile of stools staggered when returning to the ground, and then she sat down regardless of the dirt on the ground. "By the way, big man, what is your name."

　　 "Lawrence August." Lawrence jumped off the pile of stools and looked at her and asked, "What about your name?"

"Lucia Fatina Androc. But you just call me Fatina." The mouse-man named Fatina introduced very well, and Lawrence did not ask yet. Fatina took the initiative to guide him to a small hole hidden behind the altar. This is also where Fatina entered here just now.

"There is a sewer behind the house. I dug five or six meters on the side wall of the sewer and I got here. I thought I could get a good treasure, but I didn’t even touch those golden things. The trap." Before Lawrence had time to ask, the rescued Miss Ratman talked about everything she had encountered today.

　　 "By the way, take these jewels away, after all you saved me." At the end, Fatina said to Lawrence after a painful glance at the jewels placed on the altar.

　　 "I can't take these things either." Lawrence smiled. "Don't forget, this thing was placed on the altar of the evil god. God knows what will happen after these pieces of jewelry are taken?"

　　 "Wait, you mean the evil god?" Fatina made her own small eyes widened, and then took out a brass goggles from her arms and tied it to her head.

　　 "Squeak, I don't see anything." After looking at the altar through the lens, Fatina's small eyes showed puzzlement, and then he explained to Lawrence, who was staring at her goggles with interest. "My grandfather was an alchemist, and he gave it to me. You can tell by saying that there is a magic reaction."

　　 "Is the [detection magic] constant?" Lawrence knew the effect of this alchemy item at once, but he still advised. "Seriously, this item is really easy to use, but you can't completely believe it. Not all things related to magic can be discovered by this magic. Especially things like altars, before they are activated. It’s no different from a pile of rocks."

　　 "Squeak, that's it!" Fatina showed a suddenly realized expression. "Sorry, it's the first time I've come out on an adventure, and I don't understand many things."

　　 "Well, I am also a novice." Lawrence looked at the mouse-man lady in front of him somewhat helplessly. "But didn't you look at other people's notes before you came out?"

　　 "No, squeak." Fatina shook her head. "Except for merchants who are alchemists, or farmers who grow mushrooms and moss, no one in our family has a history of going out on adventures. The only bit of experience I have is from a novel."

　　 It seems that novices are indeed the easiest to make mistakes. It is no wonder that Lawrence saw in the notes found in the Church of Knowledge that the casualties of adventurers are often concentrated in the first few times, especially the first time.

　　 "I personally think you'd better learn some experience first or find someone to take you with you, otherwise it is easy to accidentally lose your life in the adventure if you are like you." Lawrence persuaded, and then he stood up. "By the way, I am going to inform the Church of Knowledge now. You are here and waiting for me for a while, and I will be back soon."

　　 "Are you going to the St. Gutenberg Cathedral to inform them?" Fatina asked curiously. "If this is the case, you can leave me some weapons, lest anyone comes to attack me."

　　 "No, I just go to the roof and release a contact rocket." Lawrence explained, "If it were to go to the St. Gutenberg Cathedral, I would definitely not leave you here."

　　 After explaining clearly, Lawrence left the room and walked to the top of the building to light a rocket the size of a little finger that was removed from his belt. In an instant, a blue holy emblem of the Church of Knowledge exploded in the sky.

　　 After releasing the rocket, Lawrence walked to the edge of the building and looked down. I found that in the shadow of the street downstairs, there were a few guys who were pointing their heads at this building. They should have been attracted by the gunfire he shot just now. But when he saw the fireworks exploding in the sky, he immediately returned to the shadow of the houses around the street.

As the gangsters in Eagle Fort, they know deeply that they want to live in this city. A very important prerequisite for a good life is to know who can afford it and who can’t. . And people or forces like this who can use the church's calling signals to summon people are of the kind that absolutely cannot be offended.

　　 So even if they know that someone from the church is here to release a signal, it is likely that there are good things hidden in this building that can make them climb into the sky, but they absolutely dare not approach this house at this time to provoke the church.

　　 found that there was no suspicious person approaching the building~www.wuxiahere.com~ Lawrence returned to the first floor and carved some news with a knife at the gate, and then returned to the basement with the evil **** altar.

　　While waiting for the support of the knowledge church staff, Lawrence and Fatina chatted. Only then did Lawrence know that Fatina had run out of the family to take risks.

　　 "It's all my fault." Fatina looked a little regretful. "When the blood line awakened, I happened to clean up the treasure vault in my house, but uncontrollably spit out a fireball and set alight several very precious artworks in the treasure vault."

　　 "Although no one in my family blames me, I feel very happy to be a warlock. However, I blamed myself very much, so I decided to explore and see if I could find enough wealth to make up for the loss of the family."

　　 "Wait, you are also a warlock?" Lawrence opened his eyes wide in surprise. The book he read before said that warlocks are very rare, but he didn't expect to see two in such a short time after the bloodline awakened.

　　 "Yes, I am a red dragon warlock." Fatina shrugged. "I think this may have something to do with my parents' business trip before I was born. They said that they encountered a huge red dragon that was injured on the way. They also came into contact with a little dragon blood."

　　 "Red Dragon Warlock?" Lawrence finally knew where her outgoing character came from. "I am a Shiraz warlock, a bloodline that awakened in an accident. As for the source of the bloodline, I don't know the source of the bloodline. After all, I have never met my biological parents. Fortunately, my adoptive father is really kind to me—"

　　 Just as the two people talked more and more, there was a voice from the passage leading to the basement opened in front. "Lawrence August, we are the action handling team of the Church of Knowledge, what's the situation below you?"
