The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

After spending more than ten minutes, Leo came to a suspension bridge entering the tenth city area. Two three-meter-high guards with rough skin and a lizard-shaped head on both sides of the jump bridge stopped Lei. Ou's way, and stared at Leo with disgust and contempt, and asked: "This is not where you should come, black guy! While I'm in a good mood, you leave immediately, otherwise..."

Leo ignored the bad attitude of the two big guys who were no different from the monster, and directly took out the invitation of the Alcott family and placed it in front of them.

Seeing this invitation, the two big guys were stunned, and soon recognized the origin of the invitation, showing a strong surprised expression on his face, and it was difficult to hide a little doubt in his eyes.

"What are you two idiots doing? This is a VIP invited by your master." At this moment, behind Leo, there was a very hoarse voice suddenly yelling at the two ancestral mutants who were blocking the road.

Hearing such a special hoarse voice, Leo hardly needs to look back, it is clear who is behind him.

"Mr. Witzmir, did you also receive an invitation?" Leo turned to his middle-aged man who was approaching behind him after the other party's voice fell.

I saw that this middle-aged man's hair and beard were trimmed very neatly, wearing the most popular bubble suit in the ten towns, and the whole person was wrapped into a ball by a special clothes rack, and deliberately wiped on the face A special layer of phosphor was added to make him look more like a clown than a big man with status in Ten Towns.

Because of the color of the skin, even if Leo is interested in making friends with these people these days, no one will listen to him to say one more sentence, but there are always exceptions. Witzmir is the only one who treats Lei like normal people these days. Residents of the dream world of Europe. It's just that whether he did this really does not discriminate against the so-called black skin disease, or for other purposes, it is unknown.

Compared to Leo, a fake merchant, Witzmir, who is dressed like a ball, is a real ten-town merchant, and he seems to be very famous in the aristocratic circle of Ten Towns, and also has a certain position. Ten bottles shot by Leo Among the potions, three bottles were taken by him, and the Alcott family, the ruler of the seventh town on the lake, only took four bottles.

Although these days, Witzmir also has his own buying and selling tasks, but every day he will spend as much time as possible to talk with Leo, even because he knows that Leo wants to buy a lot of books, he also helps Leo buy, and He found the diary of the veteran guarding the castle in the foggy area.

Although Witzmir helped Leo a great deal in the acquisition of books, Leo was able to talk a little and felt that Witzmir always wanted to take some words from his mouth, and if these words were Nothing is trying to find the unsuspecting supporter of Silvermoon City behind him.

However, it is clear that this real ten-town business approach is still a little bit worse, and I do not know that Leo has psionic skills similar to witchcraft.

After Leo used part of the psychic skills and resonated with the spirit of Witzmir by virtue of the spiritual net, causing hypnotic effects on it. Not only did Witzmir not get any information he wanted from Leo, but Leo set out some information about his origins. For example, he was the agent of the ninth chief wizard in Ten Town, and this time he was The machinery factory of First Lake Shangzhen acquired 500 special gears and so on.

However, Witzmir apparently possessed wizards and magical objects that could avoid the influence of psionic powers. When Leo was preparing to strengthen his influence and amplify the psionic powers, the wizards and magical objects on the other party reacted, sending him from a hypnotic state. wake.

After returning to normal, Witzmir seemed to know exactly what was happening, and even mistakenly believed that Leo was performing witchcraft, so he left in a panic.

Originally Leo thought that the ten-town merchant would no longer have contact with it, but he did not expect that the other party would still greet him and rescue him.

Witzmir seemed to have forgotten about the last time he was hypnotized by Leo. He talked to Leo as if it were nothing. , As long as the merchants in other towns are all included in his invitation."

Since the other party took the initiative to confuse, Leo did not need to take it out, so it was considered that nothing had happened. Following the other party, he thought for a while and asked, "Does he want to buy something?"

If Andre XIII only contacted the nobility and Leo, then 9 out of 10 were the remedies for Leo, but now from Witzmir know the details of the banquet invitation list, making Lei Ou felt that Andre XIII might have other plans.

“It’s possible, but it’s not very likely. After all, Lord Andre XIII’s lord has his own businessman. Because of the relationship between the Alcott family and the Wizards’ Association, we can’t buy anything. We don’t need to rely on us. Acquire things for him." While talking, Witzmir came to the suspension bridge, took out his invitation, and showed it in front of the two guards.

Contrary to the situation just now, the two guards did not doubt the authenticity of the invitation in Witzmir's hands, and immediately let go and let Witzmir go on the bridge, and Leo followed him, walking towards the wall opposite the suspension bridge. go with.

Walking on the slightly shaking suspension bridge, Witzmir took a rhythmic pace, staggered the frequency of the suspension bridge shaking, so that his pace was very stable, and while walking, he pretended to say deeply: "I guess Andrea This thirteenth time, the thirteenth convening of foreign merchants and local noblemen probably came for that matter, and he also wanted to take advantage of it."

Because there were no guards around, the tone of words spoken by Witzmir became a lot more random. The name of Andre XIII no longer used the courteous courtesy language, but the name was casual, more in the tone A trace of disdain for Andre XIII was revealed.

However, Leo did not pay attention to the changes in Witzmir's tone. He was more concerned about some of the contents revealed in Witzmir's words, such as what that thing was and what the benefits were.

Although Leo had some doubts in his heart, he did not show it on his face. He could see that Witzmir must have thought that he had come to the town on Seventh Lake for the unknown thing, so he calculated it. Inexplicably said: "What's that? I don't know what you are talking about?" As he said, he deliberately deliberately diverged from the topic: "Have you bought everything you want?"

Although Leo’s words were completely true at the moment, his pretentious expression and deliberately distracting the subject made Witzmir increasingly convinced that his guess was right, and Leo also came for that matter. of.

"Your Excellency Leo, why don't you hide me!" Witzmir seemed to care about Leo's attitude and said: "Your wizard apprentice disguised as a trader, even dressed up as a black-skinned patient, even took out ten bottles of wizard As a bait, the potion will definitely not only be used to acquire those rubbish-like books? Since your identity can no longer be hidden, why don’t the two of us cooperate, know that there are more than two of us who want to harvest a sum from you, you I don’t want the things explained above to be broken!"

With a self-righteous coercion and temptation, Witzmir seemed to expose his hole cards in front of Leo, and let Leo understand that the other party was hypnotized by the previous psionic energy, thus seeing himself as a wizard apprentice, and still A wizard apprentice in the background.

In response, Leo deliberately showed a serious expression on his face, and stopped, making a contemplative look. Seeing Leo like this, Witzmir also stopped, not disturbing, but stood aside quietly, waiting for the final answer.

It took a while for Leo to recover from his contemplation, staring at the slightly nervous Witzmir and saying, "Now this is not the time to say this. After the banquet, we will find a place to talk about in detail."

"I have a nice place." Thinking that he had successfully convinced Leo, Witzmir's nervousness was immediately relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face, saying: "You should have heard of the flower shop in District 27 Okay! I have booked a room there all the year round. Just tell the front desk and come to me, the waiter there will take you to my room, and I will stay there these days."

Leo heard no answer, just nodded slightly, then crossed Witzmir, and quickly walked to the wall separating the inner and outer towns, and Wittsmir with a smiling face followed.

Because the first to tenth districts are a complete vine floating platform, the urban layout here is much more casual than those outside. A large number of gardens are scattered on this huge floating platform. There are many trees planted in the garden. These trees are different from the twisted trees in the forest outside the city. They are somewhat similar to the trees of the Velon world, but they are not so tall. That's it.

In these gardens, large and small noble estates are scattered. They are all nobles and their vassals who live here. The architectural styles in the manor have their own characteristics, but they all maintain a common feature, that is, all buildings. Both are based on asymmetry.

Although the boundaries of urban areas are not clearly defined by the boundaries of lakes and floating platforms like those in the outer areas, the nobles living here divide the entire vine into ten urban areas based on the types of trees planted and the stone slabs paved by roads.

People in this dream world seem to be very sensitive to the number ten. For example, there are ten chief wizards of the Witchers Association, ten chief pharmacists of the Pharmacists Association, ten districts in Silver Moon City, and ten towns in Xuanyue Lake. The area of ​​the town on the lake is one hundred, which is a multiple of ten, and there are ten guard castles in the outer foggy area and so on.

The number of noble families in Hushang Town has not escaped the limit of ten. There are ten noble families. Each noble family occupies an urban area. The rest of the noble families can only join these ten families and become vassals.

Although on the surface, the nobles who became vassals have lost the path of progress, but in fact, in addition to the Alcott family as the permanent ruler, the other nine noble families except the family name cannot be changed, but the rulers within the family Can be replaced by any means, even if the vassals will one day become masters.

Therefore, the internal struggles of the nine noble families are fierce. The power holders must always grasp the power in their hands and beware of the people underneath taking them away, and the people underneath need to constantly attack the authority of the power above. Withdraw the real power from the opponent's hand a little bit, and board a higher position.

An aristocratic philosopher of the First Lake Town once said that the by-products of any game of power will not exist as long as there is no evidence. This sentence is recognized by all the noble families in the town of Hushang, and it is regarded as an unwritten noble agreement. Any murder, framing and other by-products of power struggles, without murder, even if the murder occurs in front of everyone. Does not exist.

However, it is ridiculous that the aristocratic philosopher who spoke this aristocratic rule eventually became the murderer of a murder because of a button that was accidentally dropped, and was finally thrown into Xianyue Lake in public.

The power games within these aristocratic families will not be known to ordinary citizens outside the high wall, and Leo, an outsider, can understand these things entirely because of a diary he acquired, which is also derived from the town of the third lake. A nobleman, and the person who sold him the diary was also Witzmir.

"The garden banquet held by the Alcott family is the most interesting. The other nine aristocratic families will be present~www.wuxiahere.com~ By then the banquet is a **** battlefield with intrigue, which can not be seen in other places. "Witzmir approached Leo, staring at everything in front of him, and reminded: "However, you must be careful, Mr. Leo, be a spectator, don't come to the game, otherwise, , Even if you have the identity of a wizard apprentice, you must abide by the rules of nobility in the game."

Hearing Witzmir's reminder, Leo smiled noncommittally, turned around and walked away from the steam elevator.

After the two went down to the ground through the elevator, the Alcott family had sent a servant to wait here. When they saw Leo, they immediately greeted them, and after checking the invitations of the two, they took them to a car. In front of the carriage.

The style of this carriage is very similar to that of the Velen world, but the carriage does not have horses to pull it.

I saw that the manufacturer installed a small steam device behind the carriage, and added a crank lever to the driver's seat in front. After Leo and Witzmir got in the carriage, the servant in the driver's seat pressed the lever on the left hand side. With a steam whistle, the carriage slowly moved forward, and the servant's right hand was driving the rod. Under control, he turned a corner on the spacious road and drove into the path across the road.

Leo was a little surprised to see this carriage-style steam car. Because since he came to this dream world, everything he has seen in so many days, although there are many novel items, such as blade crossbows, such as single steam lifts and other mechanical devices, but these mechanical prototypes Most of them are traceable in the Weilun world.

These mechanical devices are either improved on the basis of a certain prototype machine, or they are a complete copy of the prototype machine, but the steam wagon he is riding is quite perfect, but there is no similar mechanical device in the world of Velon.
