The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

　　 Faced with the gloomy old hunter, the blood axe summoned by him to the meeting did not dare to come out of the upper atmosphere. After fearing to say something wrong, the old hunter's anger would spread on himself.

　　 The room became extraordinarily silent, and even the sound of swallowing saliva because of tension became particularly clear.

"Boss boss, it seems that your people are not very obedient?" Sitting on the left hand of the old hunter is a young man with a mustache who looks out of place with everyone around him. It seems that he is not afraid of the old hunter at all. He placed his feet directly on the old hunter's table, and asked very casually.

Although the clothes that this person wears are no different from those of other people around them, they are all hunter clothes, but a personal temperament that can be called aristocratic temperament is not something that these clothes can block, and it is this temperament that makes him here There is a strange feeling among the crowd.

"Pierre is a stupid impulse to do things, but he is also a stupid one who loves sentiments." Faced with the very rude blame of young people, the old hunter did not give him a deep lesson in accordance with his usual habits, but took a deep draw. Sighing, suppressing the anger in his heart, turned his head, looked at the mustache coldly, and said: "Albert who died yesterday had saved Pierre's life more than once, so he would take the urge to take someone out to find that Revenge."

Moustache is still a condescending tone, saying: "I don’t care what hate or hate! I just want to know if the stupid guy in your mouth has taken away more than thirty people, will it affect our plan? ?"

"Of course not." The old hunter replied very decisively: "Except for the three old guys who were followed by him all year round, other people were recruited in the town today. We will not be affected. Any impact. I have sent people to send invitations to those guys, they will come here at noon, then we only need to put forward the planned conditions, and the wisdom of controlling the forces behind them is impossible to refuse, at most noon tomorrow, You can get the joint agreement you want."

"This is the best way, so that I don't have to rush to the road, I can calmly go to Miria City." Moustache stretched out, made a tired look, said: "After a night of fighting, I was really tired , I want to take a rest, everything is here for you. Is that okay? Your Excellency Bobble."

　　 "Please rest in peace." The old hunter can't wait for this moustache to get out immediately, but his face is not expressed, imitating the other's nobles, and responded.

　　The pretending behavior of the old hunter made the mustache more disdainful to him, but the mustache also did not show it.

After getting up, when Moustache was about to leave, he stopped walking as if thinking of something, turned around, and said to the old hunter very abruptly, "I may have something to remind you that you participated in this In the plan, it is entirely because of the strong recommendation of the general, you and the friend who have been friends for many years, he has great trust in you, and I hope you will not live up to his trust. Because if you do this, In fact, not only will you be punished, but also the general you will be implicated by you, so..."

　　 The old hunter frowned, and said in a deep voice: "I know the matter is serious and I don't have to remind you anymore."

　　 "That's the best! It's my mouth." Moustache wasn't annoyed that his words were interrupted. After paying a proper salute to the old hunter, he turned and walked out of the room.

　　After Moustache left, the old hunter closed his eyes and pondered, and the men standing in front of him did not dare to disturb him.

　　 After a while, the old hunter suddenly opened his eyes and said to his subordinates with a prosthetic leg: "The lame, Pierre's site is given to you."

After the lame listened, he was stunned, followed by showing ecstasy, and quickly patted his chest to ensure that he could manage the site, but besides his excitement, he couldn't help but worry, saying: "Boss, if Pierre is back How to do?"

　　 "You don't have to worry, he can't come back again!" said the old hunter very determinedly.

　　Although he didn't understand why the old hunter was so, the people present couldn't help but shudder.

At this time, the lame said again: "Boss, Pier took away the three guns and thirty special bullets you gave him last night when he left. If I go to the site, there is no such thing... …"

　　 "This bastard! I'm going to cause trouble when I leave." Before he finished, the old hunter slammed the table, and finally couldn't hold back the anger accumulated before and cursed angrily. The people around had no doubt that if the Pierre was now in front of the old hunter, the old hunter would tear him alive.

On the other side, Leo, who has entered the edge of the Black Forest, does not know that there is a team of people behind him to chase down, nor does this team’s pursuit of the team cause blood axe to cause a lot of trouble. He is paying attention now. Li and sight have been completely attracted by the forest in front of him.

　　 Leo knows from the memory of the body's past that the trees in this world not only grow fast, but also grow very tall.

Not to mention that the charcoal tree regarded as an important resource by various countries has the shortest height of nearly 100 meters, and even ordinary trees grow to be more than two or thirty meters high, and all trees as long as they don’t die , Can grow indefinitely.

　　I don’t know whether it is because of the special environment of the Black Forest, or the problem of the tree species in the Black Forest itself. In short, during the growth of the tree species in the Black Forest, the trunk will grow some hard and ugly nodules.

These tree nodules are everywhere in the trunk, which makes the trees twisted and deformed. There are very few trees that can grow straight. This also makes the Black Forest tree almost worthless. Even if it is cut down and burned, it will be burned. People think that trees have too much water, and the trunk is too hard.

　　 It is precisely because the trees in the Black Forest are worthless, so there can be hundreds of thousands of years of ancient trees growing in the Black Forest. Even the trees outside the Black Forest are at least two or three hundred years old.

Because of the long growth time, the trees here are particularly tall, and the trunk twist caused by the tree tumors makes the trees entangled with each other. Over time, these trees are interwoven with the tall trunks along the edge of the Black Forest. A huge tree wall with a height of 100 meters.

I don’t know if it’s because the Black Forest contains the mysterious magic power as in the legend of this world, or because of other unknown reasons. In short, these trees only grow in the Black Forest, and will never extend outwards, so this huge fan The tree wall has become a natural black forest boundary marking.

　　In the beginning, Leo saw the giant wall not long after he left Rabbit Skin.

　　 It was just that he did not see that the tree wall was formed after the trees were intertwined, thinking that it was a wall built by the French Empire to prevent poisonous beasts in the Black Forest from running out and attacking the surrounding towns.

And when he saw this huge wall, he admired the engineering and construction capabilities of the French Empire. After all, under the same conditions, the Earth Federation, already a cosmic civilization, could not build such a huge, tens of thousands of kilometers Long giant wall.

　　 But when he came to see the composition of the giant wall, he had been completely shocked and could not speak for a long time, and he could only sigh in his heart. It is a worthy nature.

　　Although we have seen countless strange things and magnificent wonders in the Commonwealth of the Earth and in the cosmic planet, we have never seen the wonders like this huge wall of trees and sea.

"It's shocking! Right?" Nielsen looked up and tried to see the top of the tree. He said to Jason and Leo next to him, "When I first saw this tree wall, I was so shocked that I couldn't speak clearly. I stood for a long time outside the tree wall. I didn't even know that the team of hunters hired as a guide had walked in. I wasted a chance to enter the Black Forest."

"Let's go! We still have a long way to go today, and it seems that this road is not easy to go. Instead of standing here and feeling the greatness of the Black Forest tree sea, it is better to pray that we should not be in this tree sea. What trouble is there." Leo, who had recovered from the shock, mercilessly dragged Nelson back from fantasy to reality, and then dropped his emotions to the ground.

　　 "It's such a boring person!" Nielsen looked at Leo toward the entrance of the Black Forest a bit speechlessly, whispered, and said.

　　 "I think so." Jason could not help but agree.

　　 The two looked at each other because they all looked at each other a lot because of the same concept.

The entrance that Leo found was a forest passage previously opened by hunters and mercenaries in Rabbit Skin Town. Because of the huge gap with the proportion of the 100-meter wall, this entrance looks like a wall on the far side. Mouse hole, over time, mouse hole has become the common name of all Black Forest entrance.

After entering the rat hole for more than 20 meters, the road was still clear. The hunters in Rabbit Skin Town cut down all the branches and shrubs on the road, dug out a thick layer of mulch on the ground, and then covered it with a layer of quicklime. Spread gravel to prevent plant growth.

It’s just, I don’t know if it’s because of the too much manpower and material resources invested in doing so, and some of it outweighs the gains, so the road stopped only after repairing more than 20 meters, and the roads afterwards were roots, shrubs, vines, and various broad-leaved leaves. A jungle path made of plants.

At the end of the road, Nielsen motioned to stop, followed by removing the insect repellent he bought yesterday from his backpack, and put three of them in a small cloth bag connected by a rope, motioning Leo and Jason to hang around their necks, and then Take out three of them, put them in the spherical scent furnace prepared yesterday, and ignite them, indicating to hang on the waist belt.

After that, he took out some gloves and snoods, gestured to wear it, so that there was no big gap in his body, and also tightly tied his legs and boots with bandages. As for the exposed face and hair, he used the one he made last night. Apply an ointment.

　　Nilson's series of cumbersome protective measures made Jason very impatient, especially when he put on gloves and put on a scarf, he was very uncomfortable. Even though it was only halfway through the spring outside, the weather was still cold, but the cold was completely isolated from the Black Forest.

　　In the Black Forest, the climate is completely different from the outside. It is both humid and sultry. After putting on gloves and a scarf, it makes people feel breathless.

　　In contrast, Leo did not resent these uncomfortable protective measures. He often fights in unfamiliar environments. He knows that when he is unclear about the surrounding environment, the best way is not to be smart and honestly follow the arrangements of experienced people.

Although he didn't know how much protection Nielsen could do, he was very clear about the gap between a layer of protection and no protection, so he took every measure seriously, even better than Nelson. serious.

After being protected, Leo led the way. At this time, there was no dense fog in the forest that made the people of Rabbit Skin talk, so he did not use psionic energy. Instead, he used conventional methods to pass through the body, The data collected by sight and other parts constructs a relatively rough travel map.

　　Although Leo has chosen the best way to find the easy way, it is still very difficult for people like Nelson and Jason who do not often walk in the jungle. In addition, the branches and leaves of the trees completely block the light from the sky, making the Black Forest a veritable name. Even if Nielsen had already prepared several lanterns, it was still difficult to see the road clearly, and bumps often happened.

　　 Fortunately, both of them have good adaptability. Under Leo’s constant guidance, they quickly mastered the skills of walking in the jungle, and their eyes gradually adapted to the darkness of the forest. They also traveled much faster.

　　After traveling a certain distance, Leo found that the insect repellent worn on his body was indeed effective. Those poisonous insects that grew in the jungle all year round before he approached ~www.wuxiahere.com~ as if they had encountered an enemy. Fortunately, the process of these poisonous insects escaping is covered in the deciduous branches of the ground. Unless you have extraordinary eyesight like Leo, it is possible to see the creepy scenes of the scene, otherwise it will only be like Jason. And Nielsen heard some rustling voices around him like this.

Because the trees in the Black Forest are huge and heavy, coupled with the distortion during growth, the center of gravity of the trunk is completely shifted. If there is no strong root system, I am afraid that these huge trees will be top-heavy in the early stages of growth. , Collapsed.

Although the trees will find new support points because they are intertwined with the branches and trunks of other trees after the early stages of growth, the roots of the trees will not stop growing, but will continue to grow in the original way. Go on.

　　 These roots are entrenched on the ground and intertwined with each other. As the trees die, the roots rot and become land, and they provide nutrients for the new roots.

The mulch of these trees was not cared for in the past, but as the academies of sciences found that these mulch can make barren land fertile, these mulches have great value. Every year, a large number of diggers enter with hunters The Black Forest excavates mulch.

Although it seems to be simply digging some mulch on the ground, it feels no danger, but in fact, the danger of this industry is much higher than that of the Black Forest hunter, because there are a lot of poisonous insects under the mulch. It can be fatal if bitten.

The light path chosen by Leo coincides with the excavation route of these diggers, which makes him almost no need to rely on the auxiliary brain system to carefully compare and analyze, and directly look for the corpses left by the diggers. Found a road deep into the Black Forest.
