The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 40: Poseidon family

"What is Neilgard? Would you mind explaining?" Leo walked to Catherine, squatted on the ground, and looked at the words and symbols on it. He didn't feel any energy in these words and symbols. .

   "Let's go find..." Catherine, with many secrets in her heart, was reluctant to say more, preparing to stand up and continue to find Nielsen's whereabouts.

However, before her words were finished, the body ready to stand was pressed by Leo’s hand, and then Leo heard a very cold tone, saying: "Miss Catherine, I think we should put it now It is better to speak clearly."

   "What do you mean?" Catherine's face was solemn and her hands could not help but rest on the battle axe Leo had given her before.

"I'll tell you the truth! I don't trust you." Leo was also very serious, not looking at Catherine's hand on the battle axe, but staring at it, said: "But the doctor I believe you, he thinks that even if you have been disconnected from him for so many years, he is still the Catherine he loves, so as a comrade who was killed together from the death line, I can also try to trust you, but Miss Catherine, you are very Disappointing! I don’t think you deserve the doctor’s trust!"

   When Nelson was mentioned, a trace of sadness appeared in Catherine's eyes, and then took a deep breath to stabilize some guilty emotions and asked, "Why do you say that?"

"Do you remember the question I asked you?" Leo Jia said with a heavy voice, pressing harder and harder: "What special place does the doctor attract Martin Luther's attention, and he will not hesitate to think of a plan that is full of mistakes, but also With the help of his feelings for you, he must be tricked into this catacomb? What does this catacomb have to do with the doctor? Do you remember these two questions?"

   "Of course I remember." Catherine responded.

"When I asked you on the railcar coming to the parish, you didn't know the answer. I believe you, so I didn't ask any more." Leo's pressure on his body gradually increased, making Catherine afraid to look at him again. "Before the Yongmian Hall entered the secret path, I asked you again, you deliberately divert the topic, I did not care, after all, looking for a doctor is the point. So now? What do you want to tell me you don't know anything about?"

  Catherine couldn't bear the constant pressure from Leo's body, she turned her head aside and said without confidence: "But what does this have to do with Nelson? What do I know now have to do with Nelson?"

"Okay! I believe what you said has nothing to do with Nielsen." Leo stretched his hand on Catherine's shoulder and said word by word: "Now, I ask Miss Catherine to say to me, what you found and Nelson If it doesn’t matter, I won’t ask anything.”

The atmosphere around    immediately calmed down and became extremely tense. Jason was not used to such a tense atmosphere and found an excuse to investigate the surrounding environment, temporarily avoiding this awkward atmosphere.

"I don't know what your concerns are. I just care about the safety of my comrades." Leo loosened his hand on Catherine's shoulder, his tone slightly softened, and said, "The doctor will be brought here for a purpose. Yes, think about the case information provided by Mr. Martin! If there is no accident, the doctor will definitely encounter similar things, so the more we understand the things we are facing now, the more safely we can rescue the doctor, you What do you think?"

   After Leo's voice fell, the surroundings were quiet again, but the atmosphere was inexplicably relaxed a lot, and was no longer as nervous and serious as just now.

  Catherine suddenly said: "I do know something about Nelson, but this matter is also related to my race. This is the secret of my ethnic group, so I just..."

  Not waiting for Catherine to finish her speech, Leo took the initiative to interrupt her explanation and stood up and said, "Since that is the case, as long as I didn't ask, you don't have to say anything, let's find a doctor!"

   "No! You are right, there are some things I should tell you." Catherine stopped Leo, hesitating a little, and said: "Martin will target Nelson because of Nelson's origin."

   "Doctor's background?" Leo sat back to Catherine again, wondering.

   Catherine said: "Nelson is the youngest son of the Matthew family at Port Said."

   Catherine was looking forward to Leo's surprised expression, but Leo didn't respond at all.

  Catherine questioned: "You already know Nelson's life?"

   "I don't know." Leo shook his head and said honestly: "I don't even know what the Matthew family is."

   "Are you from the Kingdom of England?" Catherine said with an unbelievable expression, "Robert Matthew, the protector of the country? Withered white roses family?"

   It's a pity that Catherine said so much, Leo is still a puzzled look.

It's no wonder that Leo will react this way. This body was only a blacksmith in a remote town. He knew very little about the history of the Inge Kingdom, and he only cared about the things around him, even if there were some memories and him. Fusion, and fragmentation, naturally will not know what protector, what white rose family.

Seeing that Leo really didn’t know these things, Catherine explained carefully: "Robert Matthew is the founder of the White Rose family. He was protected by the Prince and his own because he saved the Inge royal family. The son married the princess of the royal family, and let his daughter marry the later Charles I. It opened a century of red roses and white roses that ruled the Inge Kingdom. However, I did not know what the reason was. The Rose family is gradually declining, gradually withdrawing from the political center of the Kingdom of England and moving to Port Sait."

   Leo asked puzzled: "What does this have to do with this catacombs?"

   Catherine said: "After a hundred years of marriage with the Inge royal family, the Matthew family also has royal blood in the family's blood, and the Inge royal family is said to have the blood of the gods."

"God's bloodline?" Leo froze for a moment, if he sneered at this kind of thing before, but now he can't help but the black shadows seen in that unknown place and the gold seen in the Black Forest Julu, in a way, these existences are no different from gods.

"I really doubt that you are an Inge." Catherine misunderstood Leo because she was unclear about this matter, so she muttered to herself, but did not know that she had told the truth, "The creation of the Inge royal family William I was the first general of the first French dynasty. Because he offended the emperor of France at the time, he was guilty of treason, but because the other nobles pleaded, the punishment was changed from beheading to sea exile. Legend has it that the family of William I was at sea. After drifting for many days, the food has been exhausted and the hope of survival is completely lost. At this time, a sea **** appeared, rescued the family of William I, and brought them to the current Inge Islands, and later let William I And his heirs became his clan, giving them the blood of the gods, so the royal family of Inge has always claimed himself as the **** of the sea god."

   "Poseidon?" Leo froze for a moment when he heard this, and said, "The octopus on the army badge is Poseidon?"

   "Yes." Catherine already knew very well that Leo knew nothing about these legends, whether they were native or not.

"Okay! The doctor has the blood of the gods, which is why he was targeted." Leo summed it up slightly and asked again: "So what about this catacombs? And the doctor, or the blood of the gods on the doctor. what relationship?"

  When talking about the catacombs, the color of concern on Catherine's face reappeared. After hesitating again and again, she decided to speak up.

Catherine walked to the foundation of the statue, squatted down and stroked the weird words on it, and said with emotion: "This is not an catacomb. It should be an ancient underground city called Nirgaard. It is the ancestral ground of our lonely people. The real names of us should be Neilgard."

   Hearing Catherine's words, Leo was stunned, wondering: "The workers living in Cage are all your people?"

"Not exactly, but most of them are." Catherine Han replied vaguely, then silenced again, and asked Leo: "Do you know the history of the Frankish dynasty? For example, it almost cut off the slave kingdom inherited by the French Empire. ."

   "I heard from the doctor on the way to Lanxi."

"Everyone knows that His Majesty destroyed the dynasty of the newly-built Western Continent, rebuilt the French Empire, continued the blood of the French royal family, and destroyed all the words about that dynasty, because the dynasty was established by slaves, others mentioned When it was, it could only be given the name of a slave kingdom." Catherine inadvertently showed a look of hostility and hatred when she mentioned the French Empire, and when she mentioned the slave kingdom, she felt a sense of sentimental emotion. : "Everyone has only seen the glorious French Empire, but how many people know the whereabouts of those involved in the establishment of the slave kingdom?"

   "You are the descendants of the slave kingdom?" Leo Xin guessed.

Catherine did not admit, nor denied, but continued: "Our people have been tortured by the French royal family in every way in the past years, let us do the heaviest and most dangerous work, let us live the worst Places, eating the worst food, neither let us live alive nor let us die in pain, they want to torture us forever."

   said that she felt the emotion was not right, so she stopped and closed her eyes slightly to calm down the more and more excited emotions, and Leo did not disturb her, waiting quietly for the following.

   At this time, Jason, who had walked away before, seemed to feel that the atmosphere here had returned to normal, so he walked over and sat silently.

"We have survived, we have returned to our king capital, rebuilt a city, recondensed our faith, and we have rediscovered the history of the past." Catherine whispered: "We found our predecessors in the catacombs The ancient books that come down include those about the slave kingdom that was wiped out by the French Empire, as well as more ancient ones."

"Wait!" Leo suddenly stopped Catherine to continue, and then suddenly took Catherine's hand, gestured to Jason, ran towards one of the stone houses, and quickly hid in the stone house, He placed his hands on the two tomahawks around his waist, leaning against the edge of the window and peering out.

Leo’s sudden movement made Jason and Catherine immediately followed by tension. Although they did not know why, they also took out their own weapons and clasped them in their hands. Cover.

However, after waiting for a long time, they did not feel any movement outside, and they couldn’t help but wonder whether Leo was wrong or not. When they were about to ask, Leo raised his hand to stop it, and they saw Leo Pointed to a ruin on the edge of the square.

Jason and Catherine leaned out their heads slightly from the edge of the window, carefully watching Leo’s finger, and soon they saw a glimpse of a shadow in the ruins, but they were puzzled by the shadow. His body shape is very strange.

   The overall image of the shadow is like a mess of mud, and it doesn't feel like walking when moving. UU reads the book www.uukanshu.com instead of sticking to the ground and flowing.

   In addition, its body is transparent, allowing the light emitted by the fluorescent plants covered by the body to pass through the body and project outwards, forming an invisible effect.

   If it wasn't for the shadow to move, it would make the body's ability to be transparent disappear from time to time, making its real shape appear. Perhaps Jason and Catherine could hardly see such a monster in the ruin.

I saw that the monster's movement looked slow, but in fact it was very fast, and it was not affected by the terrain image. It quickly turned over a rubble ruin that is difficult for ordinary people to turn over, and came to Leo before. In front of the square where they stayed.

   At this moment, the monster suddenly stopped, turned around the base of the statue, stopped next to the cornerstone where Catherine and Leo had just sat down, and the muddy body wrapped the cornerstone.

Seeing this scene, Leo said nothing, immediately took a church robe that he put into his backpack, took out a tomb wall lamp, poured all the lamp oil on the robe, and then rolled it into a ball and took it out Lighter.

Jason and Catherine on the side also became nervous, and Leo made another gesture to Jason at this time, pointing at the flintlock pistol that Jason carried on his back.

   Jason immediately took down the cannon and quickly put in an ammunition and handed it to Leo to help him carry it on his back. At the same time, he received the rifle equipped with five special bullets from his hand.

At this moment, the monster suddenly released its transparent physical ability, and arched from the ground, about a person tall, cracked a mouth in the muddy body, and screamed at Leo's house. Then they moved towards Leo at a very fast speed.
