When Leo was returning to the Belmont Family Liaison Office from the headquarters of the Natural Shaman Society, the Belmont Family members who had been unconscious in those buildings had gradually woken up from their sleep. For example, those family members whose bloodline power is not awakened, or whose bloodline is impure, are still in a state of lethargy, just like ordinary employees in the liaison office, no matter how you call them, they cannot be woken up.
After the initial panic, those Belmont family members who woke up quickly denied the speculation that they had been attacked, because they found that other ordinary people in the city had also passed out, and the situation was the same as the ordinary people in the liaison office. .
Although they didn't know what was going on, they didn't feel there was any danger, so they settled their own internal affairs first, and then decided whether to send someone to the city to investigate the cause of the city's drowsiness.
These people are divided into two, and some people move the sleepy people in the house to different rooms, especially those who are sleepy outside. Although the weather in the city is very warm because of the geothermal heat, if you sleep for a long time You can still catch cold and get sick outside.
Others went to the warehouse to check the goods stored there to see if there was any damage while they were asleep.
"What's this? There doesn't seem to be such a pillar on our manifest?" One of the Belmont family members happened to find the warehouse where Leo stored the totem poles. At first, he didn't notice anything unusual until he asked to click After finishing the inventory of the warehouse, he found that there was one more thing in the warehouse, which made him feel puzzled.
Hearing the sound coming from here, other Belmont family members also came over and asked about the situation, and they were all puzzled. In their opinion, according to the normal situation, the warehouse should throw things when they are comatose. Yes, now there is one more thing, which is so abnormal.
"This seems to be a natural totem pole that a natural shaman would bury in the city." Someone soon recognized its origin from the unique ornamentation on the pillar, and then looked at the soil sticking to the pillar, and couldn't help but be surprised. Said: "Someone dug up the totem pole and moved it to the warehouse while we were asleep. What does this person want to do? Is he trying to provoke a fight between the Belmont family and the Natural Shaman Society?"
Although the Belmont family is not a native of Huajing City, they are also very aware of the status of the natural shaman in the city and the importance of such natural totem poles to the natural shaman. There are special laws to punish those who damage totem poles, with the maximum penalty being the death penalty.
However, right now, a natural totem pole has been dug up and quietly thrown into the Belmont family's warehouse. It is hard not to suspect that the person who did this has ulterior motives.
In the crowd, a middle-aged man who seemed to have a high level of authority opened his mouth and ordered: "Send someone to the Natural Shaman Society to inform the people over there and tell them about the situation here. We don't move here, let the Natural Shaman Society. people to check for themselves.
After everyone listened, they didn't say anything, and they were ready to do as he ordered.
"I brought this totem pole here." At this time, Leo's voice came from behind everyone.
Everyone was shocked when they heard the sound, because although they were all focused on the totem pole that suddenly appeared in the warehouse, their usual training did not let them relax their vigilance, but now they are They didn't notice Leo's appearance at all, and they didn't realize that there was an outsider behind them until the other party opened his mouth. This showed that their vigilance was completely useless. If the other party approached maliciously, then everyone present might not be able to escape.
"You are..." The top manager of the liaison office quickly calmed down, turned around, and looked at Leo, who was dressed and looked ordinary, and was about to ask the other party's identity.
But Leo had already taken out a letter of commission of envoy written by Sylvia from his pocket and handed it to the other party. The main content of the letter of appointment was to appoint Leo as her special envoy to investigate various city-state tribes in the polar mountains. Case.
Although it has been several years since the Belmont family members who were present left the family territory and came to Huajing City, they still know a lot about the various situations in the family territory. Sylvia, who has most of the power of the Monte family, has now come to the polar mountains and sent a special envoy to Huajing City, which makes them think that Silvia may show off in Huajing City or the polar mountains. Fist, this should be an opportunity for them.
After confirming the authenticity of the letter of appointment, the tense atmosphere around him also eased. The top manager of the liaison office returned the letter of appointment to Leo and asked inexplicably, "According to the letter of appointment, Authorized, you can use all the materials in the liaison office and deploy all the staff. Logically, I shouldn’t ask more, but I’m still curious why you dig out the totem poles of the Nature Shaman Society?
"Because of curiosity." Leo gave a simple and clear answer, and then added: "You don't have to worry, when I finish studying this totem pole, I will put it back, and you can treat this as I don't know."
"Understood." The man nodded without asking any further questions. He instructed his subordinates to close all the warehouses, and then gently closed the door of Leo's warehouse when leaving, pretending that nothing had happened before. Go back to the building of the liaison office to deal with things, and others are also away from the warehouse area under this person's instructions.
After everyone left, Leo also focused his attention on the totem pole. At this moment, Leo's attention to the totem pole was different from before, because he had already learned from Willa Thothmuller's Knowing that this kind of totem pole is an important force to suppress the abyss superiors, and seeing how the totem pole absorbs and digests such a huge abyss breath before, makes him curious about this totem that does not seem to be particularly powerful. What kind of mysterious knowledge is hidden in the column to restrain the power of the abyss.
Because the totem pole has to be returned, it is naturally impossible to use dismantling to study its core mysteries, but when Leo was carrying the totem pole, he could feel some disguises of the rune knowledge required by the shaman spells on the surface of the totem pole. The core of the totem pole is the part that grows naturally. When the totem pole was still a tree, there should be a natural shaman intervening in its growth process. The shaman rune entered the inside of the tree, along with the tree. It grows little by little, and finally takes shape.
If you want to detect the inside of the totem pole without destroying it, you can naturally use scanning skills such as mental net, but the problem is that the shamanic runes and the animal patterns on the surface of the totem pole are not useless at all, it produces A force protects and binds the mystery of power within the totem pole.
This power is not particularly strong, but it is very strong, because the power invoked by this totem pole is not its own power, but the power of all the totem poles buried in the entire Flower Mirror City, even if the totem pole is like this now. The poles were dug out, and the power connection of these totem poles was still not broken, which is why Vera did not find a totem pole was dug up when she checked the situation in the city, and Leo also thought that the totem pole could be buried again. s reason.
That is to say, if Leo wants to forcibly break the protection outside the totem pole, then he needs to face the power of suppressing the superiors in the underground abyss. Even if he succeeds in the end, the totem pole should be destroyed, and the abyss with a comfortable suppression force will be lost. The superior will inevitably flee, and it may be more difficult to catch him, but this is asking for trouble.
He also thought about it, and took the totem pole to a place far away from Huajing City, away from the power range of the shaman circle composed of totem poles. Without the support of external forces, the power on the surface of the totem pole should also be become weak, or even disappear.
But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was not feasible to do so. In his opinion, Vera must have considered this situation, and should also bury a backhand in the totem pole. Once the protective power on the surface of the totem pole disappears or If there is a problem, then the core power inside the totem pole may self-destruct, completely destroying the totem pole and the mystery of its power.
After repeated research and found that it was impossible to achieve the effect he wanted with all the methods involving extraordinary power, Leo began to consider methods that did not use extraordinary power, and the first method he thought of was effective.
I saw that he tapped the surface of the totem pole lightly with his fingers from one end of the totem pole. Every time he tapped, he paused for a while, and then continued in another place. The surface of the totem pole is knocked out.
When tapping, the weak vibration formed by the fingertips does not punish any kind of force inside the totem pole, but the subtle changes produced by the vibration can feedback the situation inside the totem pole, although the feedback information is very vague , but after repeated tapping and data accumulation, Leo has constructed a complete totem pole perspective in his mind, and the secrets inside the totem pole are completely presented in front of him.
After seeing the perspective view of this totem pole, Leo had a puzzled look on his face, because the inside of this totem pole was a little unexpected.
He didn't see any runes containing extraordinary power in the totem pole. Instead, he saw some things like biological meridians and blood vessels in the totem pole, and the texture inside the totem pole made him feel like the muscles of animals. texture, not the texture of the plant.
Various discoveries made Leo wonder that this totem pole was actually a limb cut from a large animal, and then wrapped in tree lines and disguised as a wooden totem pole.
But he quickly denied this conjecture, because he was quite sure that the outermost tree skin of the totem pole and the inner tree were perfectly combined, and there was no trace of artificial synthesis.
Therefore, he is almost certain that the trees used to make the totem poles should have been specially cultivated, and the result of the cultivation is what he sees now. It is both a plant and an animal, and it also contains a powerful force inside.
"Isn't this the method of shamanism?" After discovering the mystery inside the totem pole, Leo immediately came up with a judgment.
Although there are many shamanic inheritances in this world, and the shamanic inheritance Leo now understands is only a small part, he can already be sure that the selection of materials and production methods for this so-called natural totem pole are not the methods that shamans should have. In particular, the shamanic inheritance of natural shamans, which maintains the balance of natural laws, will not do anything that violates natural laws, and these natural totem poles are definitely unnatural products.
Compared with the inheritance of shamans, Leo felt that these totem poles were more like products of the abyss. Among the knowledge of the abyss, some abyss races liked to use the limbs of the enemy to make totem poles. As for those totem poles. He doesn't know how powerful the power is, because the abyss serpent completely despised this method, so there is no more relevant memory.
After associating with the abyss totem pole, Leo's mind seemed to be unlocked, and many answers that had not been thought of before appeared at the moment, such as why such a huge abyss can be absorbed and digested by the totem pole. There is no trace. If these totem poles are abyss totem poles, then the answer will naturally be there. What is strange about the abyss totem poles absorbing and digesting the power of the abyss.
As for the methods of these totem poles to suppress the abyss superiors, there is also an answer, because the original function of the abyss totem pole is to imprison abyss creatures, and the abyss law contained in the abyss totem pole itself contains constraints on the abyss, but The effect of the abyss totem pole is only for the lower abyss creatures, and the effect on the stronger abyss creatures will be greatly reduced, as for the abyss superiors, it is completely ineffective.
However, judging from the current situation, it is obvious that these totem poles in Huajing City should have undergone some modifications, not only to make these totem poles work for those in the abyss, UU reading www.uukanshu. com is also perfectly combined with the power of natural shamans. I just don’t know if natural shamans who have been in deep contact with these totem poles for a long time will be infected by the abyss in them.
"Is this playing with fire?" Although Leo admired the people who improved these totem poles, he also felt that these people were looking for their own way. When their own strength was not strong enough, they had been exposed to the power of the abyss for a long time. As a result, without exception, they will be dragged into the abyss and cannot be turned over.
In addition to his emotions, Leo did not give the natural shaman any idea of solving the problem. He carried the totem pole that had uncovered all the secrets again, transported it back to the original place, buried it again, and went there. The headquarters of the Nature Shaman is located, waiting for the follow-up action of Willa Thothmüller.
However, what surprised him was that Vera Thothmuller seemed to have forgotten the abyss demon that was about to move in the ground. She spent the next few days assisting the lord and management of Huajing City to deal with the affairs of the city, and resettled people who kept coming in. refugee.
It wasn't until a few days later, when the number of refugees gradually decreased, that she began to examine the so-called natural totem poles one by one in the city.
