The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 35: Religious symbol

  The four Leo did not sit in the same car with the black robes, but sat in the last car.

As the rail car left the platform, the rail car began to accelerate, and the violently violent body, plus the height of one or two hundred meters here, made the first person sitting on the rail car feel terrified, as if the rail car would always be Overturned to fall below the general.

   Jason and Nielsen respectively grabbed the edge of the carriage tightly and pressed their bodies down so that their **** could be as close as possible to the seat. Even so, they still feel unreliable, as if a violent vibration of the car will throw them out of the seat.

  Catherine often takes this kind of rail car to go to different places to treat doctors and patients, and she has long been accustomed to this seemingly dangerous and safe high-altitude rail car. But what made her curious was that Leo, who was sitting opposite her, also seemed very calm, and sat very steady. Every shaking caused by the vibration of the body could be accurately sensed by him in advance, and let the body follow the car slightly. Shaking, it looks like it's clinging to the seat.

   The only thing that makes people feel weird is that he keeps his head down after getting on the bus, as if looking at something in his hand, but because the car is too dark to see what is in his hand.

   "Doctor, let's change seats! I want to talk to Miss Catherine." After a certain distance of the rail car, Leo suddenly raised his head and said to Nelson who tried to stabilize his body and not let him shake.

   "What?" Or because the sound of the wheels crushing the rails was too loud, or perhaps because Nielsen was too focused on the shaking seat, he didn't hear Leo's words for a while.

   Leo repeated the words just now.

   "I have no opinion, Catherine?" Nielsen froze a little and nodded, but did not get up immediately, but turned to look at Catherine, as if asking Catherine if she would talk to Leo.

   "Yes." Catherine's eyes looked at the king and queen at Leo's waist and agreed.

Seeing Catherine agree, Nielsen slowly got up from the seat, clutching the railing in the carriage, arched a little and moved towards Leo’s seat, while Leo was as fast as walking on the ground Changed seats.

   "Miss Catherine, she knows the king and the queen very well." After sitting down, Leo took the initiative to find a topic that could calm the two people's cold atmosphere.

"I saw my dad used it before." Catherine smiled and said, "I used to dream that my dad would pass the queen to me, and I had imagined that Jean Valjean would give her to me, but these are just fantasy, now they have Found the owner."

   Leo asked very curiously: "Can you tell me about Dad?"

"One day Dad suddenly appeared with Jean Valjean and settled down in Cage City. He was a mechanical master. Without the machinery he didn't understand, he personally designed the rail car we rode, designed the elevator by himself, and personally put the original The overwhelmed cage city reinforced it again." When Catherine mentioned the last Witzker, the expression on her face was full of nostalgia, and then she smiled sadly and said: "A long time after the death of the father , We don’t even know what to do, but fortunately we have survived and let the residents of Cage City live a better life."

Leo could feel that Catherine's understanding of the old man was only superficial. She didn't know that the old man had other mysteries, so she didn't continue to ask questions and turned to the topic, saying: "Catherine Miss, I have a question I want to ask. Is there anything special about Nelson?"

   "Ah?" Catherine didn't understand what was going on for a moment, and looked at Leo blankly.

"I'll just put it simply!" Leo looked at Catherine with a serious expression, and said: "That Mr. Martin was not good at inspiring us from the beginning. His goal was Nelson. Obviously Nelson had Something is very special and may be related to the catacombs."

   "This, this is impossible? Martin, he..." Catherine was obviously confused by Leo's sudden inquiry, and her brain was a little confused, and she didn't know how to answer it.

Although Nielsen, who was sitting opposite, concentrated his main attention on the shaking car because of fear, he also allocated a part of his attention to the conversation between Catherine and Leo, and was very curious why Leo would never find him at this time. Catherine who had an intersection talked.

Unfortunately, the sound of the rail car was too loud, so that he could not hear any sound, only to see Catherine's embarrassed expression. At this time, he couldn't help but want to stand up and ask about Catherine, but he raised his hand in Leo. The action stopped.

   "Why do you think Martin is not kind to you?" Catherine sorted out her confused thoughts and asked Shen Leo.

   Leo said calmly: "You think about it carefully, when he encouraged us to go to the parish in your mouth, he began to invite the order of candidates."

  Catherine carefully recalled the scene at that time, the expression on her face gradually became more serious, and it was even harder to hide her doubts.

"You should also feel weird! Going to the diocese to search for evidence must be dangerous, so people who go must be physically strong and capable of fighting." Leo said as he spoke with Jason and Nelson. The three of them made a gesture and said, "If you choose, you have a dangerous and important person. Who would you choose first among the three of us?"

Catherine had begun to believe Leo’s words, but she still had doubts in her heart, saying: "But Nielsen came to visit me suddenly. I didn’t know he would come beforehand. Martin had never had contact with Nielsen before. He Why did you suddenly target Nielsen?"

"This is also what I want to know." Leo Shen said: "From the previous situation, Martin's plan for Nelson is very hasty, it should be a plan that comes to mind after suddenly knowing the arrival of Nelson. The plan itself is full of There is a loophole, so someone needs to make up, this person is you." Then, he suddenly asked an off-topic, "Can you tell me, what is your relationship with Mr. Martin?"

  Catherine said a little embarrassedly: "We, we used to be together before, and then we separated because of some things."

   "You have a high reputation in Cage City?" Leo asked.

  Catherine said modestly: "It's okay."

"It's not okay." Leo thought for a while, and said: "From what I have seen as a bystander, your reputation is very high, not only among ordinary workers, but also this. The prestige of the Aknaya sect is not low, not even Mr. Martin."

"What do you mean?" Catherine's face changed suddenly, glaring at Leo, and said, "You want to say that Martin has added me to his plan because of my reputation. "

   "This is about to ask you." Leo, who had just started, didn't mean to continue talking. He gestured to Nelson who was nervous about the situation on the opposite side, and he and Nelson changed the seat back.

When Leo got up and changed seats, Catherine opened her mouth and seemed to want to say something, but didn't say it. Instead, after Nelson sat back, she looked at Nelson with a weird look and made Nelson be Blank face.

Leo just clarified Martin’s plan in front of Catherine, mainly because the scene on the platform made him feel that Catherine should not be an accomplice of Martin, but he was not sure yet, so he would use this method to double check with.

As the commander of the special operations team, interrogating prisoners and judging the truth of the prisoners are all compulsory courses, and Leo, as the leader, can easily judge the other party’s details from various details that are difficult for ordinary people to perceive. Mindset and so on.

  In the process of talking with Catherine just now, Leo has determined that Catherine is not clear about Martin’s plan. She just thought that she went to the parish to find clues and evidence for the brutal murders that occurred continuously in Cage.

   In addition, he was also very sure that Catherine knew something, but she seemed to have great concerns and could not say it.

He didn't plan to press Catherine further, because doing so would only make Catherine resentful, and the more he would be reluctant to speak, so he left Catherine a little room for her to think clearly, and she said what she wanted to say but dare not say Things, this is a little trick of interrogation.

The cage city is large, which is the consensus of all Lanxi people, but it is completely different to see the size of the cage city outside the cage city and feel the size of the cage city inside the cage city. Darkness often makes people illusion about space and time. .

   The rail car only drove on the air track for nearly 20 minutes, but it made people sitting in the car feel like it had been a few hours, and even felt that the rail car would never reach the end.

   So when the railcar entered the parish and saw the unique white building in the parish, no matter whether it was an experienced person or an unexperienced person, the railcar could not help but relax.

   After entering the parish, almost all the buildings were painted white, and some religious symbols similar to the emblem were painted in red paint in some striking places.

When Martin mentioned the Aknaya sect, Leo only regarded this religion as a general religion of faith, as a tool for Martin to harvest people’s hearts, but after seeing those religious symbols, he realized that this originated from the Black Forest Swamp The religion of may have incredible power like the Black Forest itself.

  Because he discovered that these religious symbols were like the scratches he saw on the talisman of the Wizke, as he concentrated on watching, he could produce strange and unspeakable changes. This change may just twist the shape, or it may only extend a certain line, but it is this subtle change that makes this seemingly ordinary religious symbol produce a dizzying and extremely disgusting feeling.

  Although this change is not as strong as the Wizk talisman, it is enough to alert Leo.

   So, Leo tried to turn on the Sight skills to check the surroundings.

  However, the sight in front of him made him a little surprised, because he found the parish of the Aknaya sect clean.

   This kind of cleanliness is not the kind of cleanliness in the conventional sense, but the surrounding air does not have the thick gray-black negative breath of other areas of the cage city.

   "A small amount of high-level negative energy force field is found, which can be absorbed, the side effects will weaken, mental confusion, and unpredictable mutation."

  However, through the auxiliary brain system, Leo got a piece of data that made him more surprised.

   The negative energy force field shrouded in the cage city did not dissipate due to the disappearance of the gray-black negative breath, but instead transformed, forming a high-level negative energy force field. Even if it is only a trace amount, it can be directly absorbed and used to enhance your personal data, but the defects are also very obvious, that is weakened will, mental confusion and physical variation.

"Mr. Dodd, what's wrong with you?" Through the conversation just now, Catherine also started to pay attention to Leo. Although Leo didn't make any big moves just now, her face changed obviously after Leo entered the parish, which made her Can't help but guess Leo must have discovered something, and also thought of some other things, so he asked.

   Leo heard the inquiry and did not immediately respond. After a moment of contemplation, he suddenly asked an inexplicable question and said, "Miss Catherine, are the symbols on the wall the Aknaya sect badges?"

Catherine froze for a moment, shook her head, and said, "No, these symbols are painted by Martin after resigning from the position of Archbishop, and Major told the congregation to represent the new life. Oh! Major is one of the three high priests. "

   "Is that true?" Leo fell silent. UU reading book www.uukanshu.com

   From his vision skills just now, he clearly sees that the religious symbols on the wall are absorbing the surrounding negative breath and turning the negative breath into a higher negative energy field.

   For a long time, under the negative energy field, the average person is just like being in radiation. The body will inevitably experience various discomforts, and some may even be mutated. This has been confirmed in the Earth Federation. This is also very consistent with what Nielsen said on the platform before. After a serious illness is healed, Aknaia's divine blessing will be obtained, which is clearly due to the mutation produced by the negative energy field.

Leo was curious about what role Martin played in this matter, because from some of the things he had seen before, it was clear that Martin knew the role of these religious symbols, and he strongly opposed the use of these Symbols, and even more objection to those who were transformed by symbols to become clergymen. Instead, the three high priests vigorously promoted this matter, and they did not hesitate to deceive sick believers to die in the parish. From these details, Martin seems to be a good person.

  It's just that Martin's idea of ​​being a good guy just came into his mind, and Leo shook his head immediately to disperse it. If it was a biological weapon in the past, he might believe more in the results obtained after collecting data and analyzing, but now he believes more in his feelings.

When the rail car drove through a curve and drilled out from behind a tall building, the scene in front of everyone was suddenly bright, and the dense steel frame buildings like cage city all disappeared, a giant hole in the city like a deep well, five kilometers in diameter. Appeared in front of everyone.

   Around the giant cave are all two hundred-story buildings in the cage city, and at the bottom of the giant cave are some very simple granite buildings. The most striking is the 50-meter-high auditorium building in the center of the giant cave.
