The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 84: Silvermoon Castle

The investigation report about this folklore was not written by one person, but from seven people, three of whom were investigators from the Kingdom of England, the French Empire and the United States and California.

The remaining four are unsigned, leaving only four marks, and Leo recognized that three of the marks are the marks of the dark world organization of the Holy See, the black market, and the night watchman. The remaining mark should be a personal mark. .

It is not difficult to see the importance of this investigation report from these signatures, but the review link behind the investigation report put a negative seal on the report.

The reason is that there are no signs of civilization in the Shangxue Lake District, and there is no corresponding content in the legends of the surrounding tribes, so the audit team determined that this folklore was only fabricated by locals.

However, Leo did not see it this way, because he found that the investigation report was the only one of all investigation reports related to the mysterious forces, the disappearance of the group, and the 9th Golden Oak Street.

In addition, another point is that the investigation report mentioned that the magnificent city will be seen when the lake reflects the moonlight, which means that the moonlight was very strong at that time, probably a full moon, and the time of the incident at 9 Golden Oak Street It's also during the full moon.

If it was just a little coincidence, it would be fine, but now there are so many coincidences, then the coincidence is no longer just a coincidence, it may be a fact.

Obviously, the investigators in the same year also discovered this situation, and attached great importance to letting seven people sign the document, but unfortunately it was eventually erased by the bureaucracy sitting in the office for review. If not, maybe now Nothing about Leo.

While Leo was recording information, someone suddenly was outside the villa, shaking the bell, and Vaschi went out. After a while, she saw her holding an exquisite invitation, and came to the living room, putting the invitation in On the table.

"I knew I wouldn't go, but I sent it every time. That little guy never gave up!" The old man just looked at the invitation and shook his head. Following what he thought of, he handed the invitation to Leo said, "Please help me go! Just when you come back, I will have a good study plan."

Leo slightly stunned, took the invitation, opened it and looked at it. It turned out to be an invitation for a high-level banquet, but when his eyes fell on the name of the initiator of the invitation, he frowned and looked up. The old man said, "You did it on purpose, right?"

"Don't you think it's funny?" The old man smiled and said, "The little fellow Rupert is an iron supporter of the Duke of Devin. If you have any plans for the Duke of Devin in Milia City, you must first The face is Rupert. It’s good for you to observe your opponent up close."

Leo shook his head, threw the invitation letter that made Miriah's dignitaries on the table, and said indifferently: "He is not my opponent, and the success of the Duke of Devin’s complaint is not for me. Any wish."

Although Leo is not my opponent, it sounds like they are not enemies, but the old man can hear another hidden meaning.

The old man did not accuse Leo of being too arrogant, he just smiled and asked, "Do you think you are outside the vortex now?"

"Isn't it?" Leo asked rhetorically.

"You and your comrades may be insignificant in the eyes of some people, and only played an insignificant role in the whole incident," the old man took the cup on the table and poured a glass of cold water, and inserted his finger into the water and turned slightly , Said: "What you might do is just to make this calm water a little bit turbulent, but the forces attracted by you want to create a wave of huge waves, and finally they are boosted by the waves. The wave turns into a vortex, involving all participants and non-participants, and your position is in the center of the vortex. Do you still think that what is happening now has nothing to do with you?"

"I can get away and leave," Leo said coldly.

The old man smiled and said, "You can't, you know it yourself." Then, he wiped his wet fingers and picked up the invitation letter and handed it to Leo. He said: "In fact, this matter has exceeded your expectations. It is estimated that even more than everyone's estimate, everyone was forcibly sent to a high-speed train. Whoever gets off the train halfway will die, and no one can make an exception."

Leo took the invitation and couldn’t help but ask, “What about you? Where are you?”

"Aren't I already thrown into the car by you and Annie?" the old man smiled humorously.

If you want to choose the ten most popular buildings in Miria City, Yinyue Castle can definitely be ranked among them. It is located in the Yinyue Valley on the outskirts of Miria City in the Shangyue Lake District.

The Yinyue Valley is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and one side faces the water. Because of the angle of the surrounding mountains and the water surface, when the moon can be seen in the sky, the moonlight around the Yinyue Valley will be concentrated here, making it look like It was shrouded in moonlight.

The first person who built the villa here was a member of the royal family of Savile, but the villa he built was too exaggerated and luxurious, and it was completely out of harmony with the surrounding quiet and elegant environment, thus becoming the most ugly building recognized by Miria City one.

After that, the land was tossed in the hands of several people, and no one developed it until Rupert arrived. He spent a lot of money to buy the land, and then built the current silver with ten times the purchase price of the land. Moon Castle.

Speaking of castles, in fact, it is more like a royal manor. The whole manor has a total of six palaces with different functions, five courtyards with large squares, seven gardens with different characteristics, and more than 3,000 rooms, 130,000 There are as many as 4,000 servants responsible for taking care of this manor piece of art and antiques from different countries.

The most special place of the whole manor is the moonlight tower in the center of the manor. When the moonlight is concentrated in the Silver Moon Valley, the gemstones on the top of the moonlight tower will absorb the surrounding moonlight and release a stronger silver-blue light. The second moon, which is also the name of the Silver Moon Castle.

After the completion of the Silver Moon Castle, Rupert held a banquet in the castle as usual. Among the guests present, there were many people with comparable wealth, and these people saw such a beautiful castle manor, and they were always moved by it. The price was offered to Rupert, hoping to buy it, and the final price even exceeded fifty times the construction price, but was eventually rejected by Rupert.

For the dignitaries of Miriam City, whoever gets Silvermoon Castle doesn't care much. They care about whether Silvermoon Castle can hold a banquet if they can receive invitations.

Because of this, every time Silver Moon Castle held a banquet, the invitation price of Silver Moon Castle rose steadily, and even reached the astonishing height of 50,000 gold flanges at its highest, but this price height was broken today.

This time, after the news that Rupert held a banquet in Silvermoon Castle, the price of an ordinary invitation card remained unchanged at 3,000 gold flanges, but the price of a senior invitation card reached 40,000 gold flanges. This kind of special invitation that can enter any place of the castle directly soared and fell a hundred thousand gold flange.

It is a pity that such special invitations are always valuable and marketless, because the people who can obtain such invitations are not only the big people who are rich but expensive, they do not need to give up this symbol of honor in their hands for the small money of 100,000 gold flanges. .

Although, at the banquet, many people in the city of Milia could not get invitations, but they were willing to wait around the square outside the Silver Moon Valley, hoping to meet good luck, and some people would take them in.

Because these kinds of things have been done so much, these people also have experience in knowing who is worthy of them to greet and make requests, and who are waiting for opportunities like them, not worth wasting time.

Emily is doing this for the first time. She has a weak and shy personality. Even when she arrives at the square outside Silvermoon Valley, she dare not approach the carriages that are waiting for the invitation to be checked and enter the valley. Not even dare.

The reason why she has such a character is to do this kind of thing because she hopes that her parents can move out of the chaotic Yucheng District, even if they live in the most ordinary residential areas like Maple Leaf Street and Saab District. One hundred times stronger.

In addition, she also hopes that her husband, who is silent and honest, can get a chance to be promoted and move out of the archive room without any hope, even if it is not a popular position.

However, Emily, who was born as a free man, has nothing to do with her husband and her parents. The only thing she can take advantage of is her fair looks. She felt that if she could enter the banquet at Silvermoon Castle, she would have the opportunity to become a powerful mistress, maybe she could change the life of her, her husband and her parents.

For this reason, when she knew that Silver Moon Castle was holding a banquet, she spent all her private money, rented a decent lace lotus skirt, and put on some makeup before sitting with her colleagues who had the same thoughts. The carriage came outside Silvermoon Valley.

It was only after arriving at the place that she realized that her expectations were a little higher, because among the people waiting for opportunities, people who were more expensive than her were everywhere, and people who were more beautiful than her were everywhere, she stood in the crowd. It is totally unremarkable.

When a high-end horse-drawn carriage drove to the square of Silvermoon Valley, waiting for entry, Emily had no chance to get close to those carriages, and she could see that even if she could get close, it might be useless.

At this time, Emily suddenly discovered that somehow an old carriage that looked like an ordinary carriage pulling passengers on the street was parked in many high-end carriages in the square. The coachman sitting on the carriage was also an old coat. The whole person seemed to be awkwardly shrunk.

Later, she heard several experienced people talking about the old carriage. They thought that the carriage should be a servant's carriage. At the entrance of the valley, they would be stopped by people. There was no need to ask in the past.

Although listening to the analysis of these people, the optimistic Emily still has some expectations. After all, she has not been near any carriages this evening. She does not want to spend all her private house money on the elaborate makeup so wasted.

So, after hesitating for a moment, Emily took a few deep breaths, brave enough to walk towards the carriage, and stood at the carriage door and looked in.

I saw a young man wearing a tuxedo, a bowler hat, and dressed without any highlights in the carriage, and it was very weird that this person was not wearing white gloves, but was wearing a pair of dock unloading workers. Fingerless gloves.

Through the lights of the carriage, Emily could see the young man’s not-too-handsome but majestic face with a beard that would never be left by others, and his eyes could not help showing disappointment. He thought that those people might have guessed it right, and the senior servant of the castle might be sitting in the carriage.

"Do you have anything?" The man in the carriage asked a woman when he saw a woman standing outside the window for a long time.

"I, I..." Emily was suddenly asked, and she was a little confused, and the handkerchief in her hand was even stirred up by her.

"Take a deep breath," feeling that the little woman in front of me seemed to be fainted by tension at any time, and the person in the carriage immediately guided rhythmically, said: "Inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale..."

With several deep breaths guided, Emily's nervousness eased, and while her emotions stabilized, she hurriedly said, "I want to go to a banquet in Silvermoon Castle, can you please take me in?" "

After talking, Emily regretted it immediately because she felt that the tone of her speech was too blunt, a little tactful, and the speed was too fast, which seemed very vulgar.

Just as Emily singled out countless problems for her earlier request, the people in the carriage were silent for a while and said, "Come on!"

"Ah?" Emily was completely stunned when she heard the other party's words. She felt she was thinking too much.

The man in the carriage asked again: "Aren't you going to come up?"

"Ah!" I finally determined that I heard correctly, UU reading www.uukanshu. com Emily hurriedly pulled the car door, carrying a fluffy skirt, boarded the old carriage, and not far behind her, those who waited for the opportunity made a laugh.

After getting in the carriage, Emily sat for a while, and suddenly found that she had not introduced herself. She quickly reached out to the person sitting opposite, as if she were at her work place: "Hello, my name is Emily."

The person sitting opposite looked at the hand stretched out, smiled, and reached over, shook it, and said, "Hello, my name is Leo Dodd."

That's right, the man sitting in this old carriage was Leo, who was recently filled with an invitation letter by the old man and came to Silvermoon Castle for a banquet.

Originally according to the old man's intention, since Leo represented that he naturally could not wear shabby, so he prepared a very high-end clothing, and even prepared a very eye-catching steam carriage for Leo. But they were rejected by Leo. He casually picked a tuxedo, waistcoat, and shirt suit, wore a common top hat, and left the villa with an invitation. He stopped a carriage and came to the moon. Lake District.
