The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

The train restarted and departed from the platform, turning to the south with the railway in the front, and gradually shifted from the elevated railway that has been driving for ten days to the down-to-earth land railway. This change also indicates that this long-distance train only needs After passing through two city stations, you will reach the terminal.

Several days have passed since the last contact with Sylvia, and in that contact, Sylvia already knew what the king-selector Saran Meyer was going to do, and decided to leave the Kingdom of Marais in Saran Before completing her plan, go to Deliat and wait for the arrival of winter.

For Sylvia, Saran Meyer is already untrustworthy, because if Saran Meyer is indeed a collaborator of the Hill Kings Church, as Leo infers, then Saran Meyer It can be said to be a traitor to the witch group.

Because the hunting operation of the Witches on the Minsk mainland was initiated by the Hill King Church, and several members of the Witch Group fell into the hands of the Hill King Church and were burned alive.

If at the time Saran Meyer was a collaborator of the Church of the Hill King, then the whereabouts of those witches were most likely sold by Saran Meyer to the Church of the Hill King.

And with the suspicion of Saran Meyer, some things that were ignored by Sylvia were also remembered by her.

For example, since Saran Meyer became the janitor of the Auxerre Forest, every time the witch group organized a return trip, there would be various accidents and some casualties.

This also made many people sneer at Saran Meyer and even resented the return ceremony. Many people who had completed the ceremony did not plan to participate anymore even after receiving the notice, which also made them participate in the return home. The ceremonies are getting fewer and fewer.

In addition, the attitude of the ice queen Leah Venistan towards Saran Meyer is also a problem. You must know how close the attitude is to the attitude of the ice queen after she knew that Saran Meyer was the famous king. She almost treats her as a mentor and asks her every time she meets with countless national questions.

It's just that such a good relationship suddenly became cold one day. Although the two can't be regarded as enmity, but they are also indifferent to each other. One meeting of the witch group can't say a few words, and more importantly, the ice queen never again. Set foot in Saran Meyer's castle.

At the time, Sylvia only thought that it was because the relationship between the two broke, so that they did not want to touch anything with each other, but now it seems that the behavior of the Snow Queen is more like expressing a kind of mistrust, thinking that he can’t be in that castle Get real security inside.

Because of this, Sylvia was no longer interested in the so-called revival plan proposed by Saran Meyer. She decided to bring the fire-bearer Thran together with Leo to the north of Deliyat, and The meeting point is in Pado City, Asha County.

The reason why I chose Padu was not only because this was Leo’s second purpose in coming to Mozambique, but also because it was the least affected place in the entire Kingdom of Marais by the civil war.

For ordinary people, Asha County is ruled by a group of very old noble families, they have extremely strong military power, and the rule is very stable. No matter who is in power in the Kingdom of Marais, they are very obedient and willing Observe the laws and regulations and various policies set by the ruling party, but only if they cannot touch their bottom line, and this bottom line is land.

It is precisely because of the particularity of Asha County, and the fact that it has a very strong military force, so both sides of the civil war in the kingdom tacitly avoided Asha County to avoid some misconduct and violated Aya. The psychological bottom line of the ancient nobles of Shakespeare pushed the excellent military power of Yasha to the enemy.

But no matter how far you avoid Asha County, the various effects caused by the war spread like uncontrolled wildfires to the surroundings and cannot be stopped.

The first impact on Asha County was naturally the refugee wave that accompanied the war. According to the newspaper reports Leo read, nearly half a million refugees have entered the territory of Asha County. This is exactly the number that can be counted. I am afraid that there are more statistics that cannot be counted.

Undoubtedly, this wave of refugees, like a flood, impacted the fragile social structure of Asha County. Although it was not as chaotic as the rest of the Kingdom of Marais, there was not much order between the locals and the refugees. The conflict has been repeatedly in the newspapers of the neighbouring Savile, and it can be seen that the situation there has been very bad.

However, for the true rulers of Asha County, the conflict between refugees and locals, the consumption of materials, the chaos of society, etc. are not major problems, and the long time is enough to smooth out the various problems caused by these problems. For these rulers, the real problem comes from themselves and from various adverse reactions caused by world changes.

For the people of the dark world, it is no secret that the werewolves and vampires ruled Asha County together. Whether it is the hill king church or the night watch organization, the dark world’s name-worthy forces have defaulted to their The rule of Asha County.

With the exception of certain hotheaded idiots, these forces that maintain the rules of the dark world will not take the initiative to send people to Asha County to catch werewolves or vampires.

But this does not mean that the names of werewolves and vampires are erased from these forces’ hunting lists, so whenever there are werewolves and vampires who actively leave Asha County, there will be night watchers, church knights, or bounty hunters. These werewolves and vampires hunted, and the sequence of their hunts was always next to the out-of-control family members. Until the last hundred years, this hunt has gradually decreased, and the long-term reward on the black market has also been canceled.

This is so because werewolves and vampires are also the two groups that are most likely to get power out of control. For example, vampires smell a strong **** gas, and werewolves will run out of control when they encounter a full moon night.

However, with the disappearance of the gods, it seems that the werewolves and vampires are out of control. There has been no rumor of out of control for a long time, so the ranking of their hunting sequences will be reduced.

However, from Sylvia's mouth, after this world change, various anomalous events in Asha County also increased rapidly, and even far exceeded the sum of other places, and these events were all out of control with the werewolf and Vampires are related, and there are even rumors that werewolves and vampires are fighting in the dark world of Minsk.

Before Sylvia contacted Leo, Sylvia, who also has the status of the Orthodox Court atheist adjudicator, member of the alien society and night watchman, has successively received notices from these organizations and hopes that she will go to Asha County to investigate . If it is a small matter, it will be resolved directly. If it is a big event, the event rating will be given. These big dark world organizations will reassign people according to the rating.

So when deciding to go to Deliat, Sylvia did not hesitate to choose Padu City in Asha County as the place to merge with Leo. He would not object to Leo, after all, he was still worried. An auction in the black market of Pado City.

Leo originally thought that the last two days of the train journey would be as calm as the previous journey, but the reality told him that he thought a little bit more.

After the train entered the land and rail track at the end of the last Canyon Railway, about half an hour later, a sudden emergency brake alarmed everyone on the train.

Leo’s situation in the train’s rear compartment is unclear, but in the restaurant where he is now, all kinds of tableware and wine have been smashed to the ground, the service staff and passengers have fallen into a mess, and many people have broken the bottle Cut, Leo also staggered forward because of the sudden brakes to stabilize his body.

Because the train designer also considered the problem of sudden braking, all six locomotives have a brake linkage device. Once the two locomotives in front brake, the other four locomotives will reverse the wheels and increase the pulling force to avoid the derailment of the car. Can also assist with braking.

Soon the train stopped completely, and the people in the restaurant recovered from the initial panic. The curse of various languages ​​lingered in the restaurant, and no higher person in charge could be found. The restaurant foreman became All the people who vented their anger, all kinds of curses and questions were concentrated on him, and he could only lower his head and make as many explanations as possible to calm the passengers' anger.

Leo ignored the chaos in the restaurant. He opened the car window, looked out in front of the locomotive, and saw a huge sand dune in front of the train, like a wall, and the sandstone The railway was completely covered, and if it was not cleaned up, the train would probably no longer be able to move forward.

Perhaps the driver at the forefront of the train and other train leaders who found the sand dunes blocking the road did not find anything unusual, but the moment he saw the dunes, Leo was already sure that something would happen.

The reason why he was so sure is because the original railway designer chose to lay the land subway track at the southern end of the canyon, rather than the flatter northern end, because after entering this area, the southern end is no longer a desert, but a large number of The grass and shrubs that control wind and sand are flourishing here, so the construction of a railway at the southern end of the canyon can minimize the obstacles caused by wind and sand to the railway, and in fact it is also true. From the record, this section of land railway has never encountered accidents caused by wind and sand .

However, now such a huge dune, which just buried the rails on the ground, stopped the train, it would make people feel weird.

When Leo felt abnormal, his extraordinary hearing heard the clutter of footsteps and heavy breathing sounds after the hills on both sides of the train, and then he saw some paintings erected on the top of the hills on both sides. There were flags of torn clothes, and a large number of ragged Savills in various clothes standing on the hill overlooking the train below.

"How dare they do this **** poor party, how dare they?" After seeing the clearly marked flag on the hill, the foreman in the restaurant showed an incredible expression and couldn't help cursing. .

All the passengers in the restaurant who heard the curse of the foreman also quieted down. They temporarily forgot the pain in their hands and looked out at the window. After confirming the situation, except for a few people, they were still the same as Leo. In addition to being calm, everyone else's face became extremely ugly.

The Savile Party of Savile first appeared when the Kingdom of Savile began to implement the parliamentary system. As the name suggests, the people who formed the poor party are some of the lowest-ranking civilians, and the identity of the initiator is slightly better. He once did it in a noble family Passed a servant, learned knowledge there, and then recommended to be a civil servant in a slum.

The purpose of this person in forming the Poor Han Party is very simple, that is, they want to occupy a place in the city council, so that the poor have a person to help them speak.

However, it is clear that the noble lords do not want to see a person with such a low status in parity with them, so they created various obstacles to the election, and directly let the poor Han party even get out of the election without obtaining the qualifications for the election. The person who founded the Poor Han Party was stabbed to death one night because of an argument with an unknown drunkard.

The nobles in the original local city thought that this was the end, but the poor Han Party not only did not disappear, but because of the death of the founder, it expanded rapidly and even spread to other cities.

When the nobles of Savile feel that something is wrong, the Poor Han Party has spread all the cities and all the tribes in the Savile Kingdom. It can be said that any poor in the Savile Kingdom is likely to be completed by the Poor Han Party. The big trouble of becoming the ruler of the Kingdom of Savile most hopes to solve, and also the most difficult to solve.

The Poor Han Party has done a lot of things in the past hundred years, two of which have done the most. One is to help the poor and help the poor, and the second is to assassinate those notorious nobles.

According to statistics~www.wuxiahere.com~ Among the nobles who died abnormally in the past hundred years in the Kingdom of Savile, nearly 60% of them were committed by the poor Han Party, and the number of stabbed nobles reached more than 1,400. Among them, the nobles with the highest status even have a prince level.

Because of this, almost all official reports in the Kingdom of Savile describe the Poor Han Party as a group of fierce gangsters, which accumulate all kinds of things that are not done by the Poor Han Party, and the passengers in the carriage are large Most of them read the official reports of the Kingdom of Savile, and it is natural to have fear at the moment.

However, when the majority of people in the carriage showed a look of fear, a few people reacted calmly to let Leo pay a little attention.

The old puppet master is naturally calm because he is extremely confident in his own strength, and believes that even if something happens, he can get away safely. The other well-dressed Savile nobles who got on the train halfway also behaved very calmly. This is a little weird. It stands to reason that they should feel the most fearful of these innately hostile poor Han parties.

"Interesting! It seems that there is a good show!" Leo found a smile and found a chair to sit quietly in the corner, waiting for the follow-up development of the matter.
