, The fastest update of the latest chapter of the mysterious world under steampunk!
Cartier, as a ground snake, naturally would not arrange Leo to rest in the sewer. After she handed over the black market to her deputy, she led Leo to the ground and came to the most high-end hotel in Tranquility City. , Arranged the three of them in the hotel.
At first it was nothing, but after learning that this hotel turned out to be Cartier’s property, Robert’s face became a little ugly.
Before Katie said that the blood and the werewolf forced the black market in Asha to have to change the content and mode of business. Robert thought that the black market here might be mixed up badly, even if Katie mentioned that they are now earning a lot more than before. And he doesn't have to risk his life to fight and fight, he just thinks that Carter is talking hard.
However, after seeing this luxury hotel now, he realized that Carter had not said anything wrong. After the black market in Asha County changed the model, he made a lot of money than before. Only the black market in such a small border town as Carter The person in charge can already have such a big industry, what about the person in charge of the black market in other big cities?
With this feeling of envy and jealousy, Robert's face was very ugly for most of the next day, and he grumbled away from the black market tradition and other words from time to time.
Compared to the change in the business model of the black market in Kiasha, Leo is more concerned about what has happened in recent times.
He did not look for the newspaper because the content on the newspaper was not complete, but asked Cartier directly.
Although Tranquility City is a small town on the edge of Asha County, because of its reliance on Asha County, the news flow here is also very fast, especially the news transmitted by the black market, most of which have not yet reached the northwest, this has become an old news. .
Leo learned from Cartier’s mouth that the situation of the Kingdom of Marais was really bad. The original civil war in the kingdom has made the prosperous counties in the central and western parts of the country become scarred, and people suddenly do not talk about life. Various monsters, like the last straw that crushed the camel, completely crushed the livelihood of the already overwhelmed people in the central, western and southern regions.
Now the outskirts of these places have almost become deserted. All the people have hid in the cities protected by high walls and soldiers, further disrupting the urban order.
The west is a desert of grasslands, and the land is sparsely populated. Even if the people’s livelihood is destroyed, it does not matter to the Kingdom of Marais. In the northwest, the government army and the uprising are fighting there, but both parties are restraining their destructive power. The city in the northwest The villages and towns on the outskirts are still intact, and the impact on people's livelihood is not too great.
As for the northern part of Asha County, although a monster tide broke out here, it quickly calmed down, and the uprising army and the government army were very tacit and did not enter this area, making it the only piece of the Kingdom of Marais Peaceful land, which also caused a large number of southerners who escaped the war to flee to Asha County, and most of these people are rich people. The arrival of these people made Asha County into the entire Kingdom of Marais in a short time. The most prosperous place.
Take the quiet city as an example. Among the many people Leo had seen in the black market before, most of them were the rich and powerful children who fled from the south. They have seen the power and danger of monsters, so they are also curious about the mysterious power. , Knowing that there is a black market, naturally curiosity, and then went to explore.
The government army and the rebel army also noticed that the situation has become very bad. After fighting like this, I am afraid that the Kingdom of Marais is really over, so both sides have the idea of negotiation. Except for the accident in the west, the battlefields in other places have temporarily stopped. Engagement, each is also dealing with various things in its own control area, mainly dealing with those monsters that have occupied the suburbs.
Because the army needs to protect the city, the task of hunting monsters in the suburbs is handed over to the bounty hunter. Now the main thing to clean up the monsters is divided into three forces at the same time. One is the special bureau recruited by the government army and the uprising, one is On the black market, the last thing is naturally the Church of the King of the Hill.
Although the temporary cleaning of suburban monsters is not very smooth, but at least it does not further deteriorate the current situation. It will not take long for various forces to sort out a set of methods to deal with monsters. By then, those monsters that are entrenched in the suburbs will no longer be. It's a problem.
Leo doesn’t care about the family members who are out of control because of the changes in the world. Among the various news provided by Carter, he is most concerned about the mist of the sea. Because of the news, the mist that occupies the sea has not only weakened and dissipated these days. On the contrary, it is getting thicker and thicker and spreading to the landing site. Three coastal cities have been engulfed by dense fog and the news has been lost.
"Did the government army and the rebel army not care about those cities?" Leo asked with a frown.
"They can't control what they want, and now they're in control of the area is enough for them to be busy, there is no extra manpower to deal with these things," Ka Jie shook his head, said: "However, they all tuned a few The loss of contact with the city is hung on the black market as a bounty task. The bounty is very rich and has attracted many people and forces. In addition, they also asked the Hill Kings Church to help. As far as I know, the Hill Kings Church A team of knights led by three paladins has been dispatched to the fog zone, but there is no news there yet."
"Did you not send someone?" Leo asked.
"No." Cartier first answered in the affirmative, but soon said with some uncertainty: "Maybe."
The news that the dense fog is spreading is not only good news for the Velon world, but also not good news for Leo, because this thick fog is likely to come from the abyss, which means that with the return of the gods, The abyss has come, and the whole world is sliding into the abyss.
It’s just that Leo thought about it calmly and thought it was not very possible, because if the world really slipped into the abyss, then the most worried must be these returning true gods, they must use the shortest time to respond to the abyss, Instead of issuing oracles such as the formation of knights.
Judging from the response of the church after accepting the commission, it is clear that the Hill King Church has not received any revelation from their gods, and they do not know what is in the thick fog, so they only send a few paladins and ordinary people so boldly. The knight entered the thick fog.
"Where are those cities?" Leo asked suddenly.
Cartier quickly took a map, and only showed it to Leo. The cities covered by dense fog are all in the southwest corner of the Kingdom of Marais. One of them is an offshore island city, which is a seaside city, and carefully If you look at the map, you will find that they are not far away from the sea of the star-falling sea.
"Is the thick fog on the north side?" Leo asked suddenly.
"I don't know about this," Cartier shook his head, and thought for a while, said: "But I heard that Deliyat has ships that can sail along the coastline. I think the intensity of the dense fog should not be comparable to that of the south. "
After hearing this, Leo was relieved a little, because according to his understanding, if the world slides into the abyss, the thick fog of the abyss will appear at the same time, and the concentration is about the same. It cannot be strong in the south and weak in the north. .
However, this is just Leo's speculation. For the specific situation, he still needs to see the thick fog on the sea to make a judgment.
After falling into the night, everyone returned to their rooms to rest. Leo did not fall asleep after returning to the room, but opened his spiritual net, but he slightly changed the perception accuracy of the spiritual net and expanded it. The coverage area envelopes the entire tranquil city in its own perception of the spiritual network.
Although on the surface, Tranquility City is as calm as its name, but in fact there are still some uncontrolled family members who can control their own power but can not control their mentality. After coming down one night, he sensed at least five battles, no The one exception is fighting against the Werewolf officers of the garrison army stationed here.
Even though Leo adjusted the induction accuracy of the Spirit Net, he was able to clearly observe the strength details of the two warring parties after watching the five battles.
As he had previously guessed, the werewolves whose energy fluctuation level reaches the third level of psionicists are even more unable to control their own power. Not only do they have no corresponding combat skills, but they also cannot control their own power well. , All the destruction at the battle site comes from the hands of these werewolves who cannot control the power.
Compared to the werewolves, the out-of-control families who have lost most of their reasoning have more elaborate control over their power. Using their own power is like using their own arms, although the energy level is lower than that of the werewolf. More than one level, but still able to fight with the werewolf, and finally even used a trick to escape the werewolf's pursuit.
After a few battles, they ended up with those out-of-control family members who escaped from Tranquil City, where the werewolf officers gained rare practical combat experience.
It's just that their fighting has suffered for ordinary people who are around the battle zone. Most of the ordinary people see these out-of-control family members when they see the twisted and weird figures of the out-of-control family members. Some shocks of unknown spiritual energy were supported by a few of them, but most of them passed out during the shock, and almost all of them were crazy when they woke up.
These are crazy, and sober, and the luck is not bad. The more unfortunate ones are those who are just in the middle of the battlefield. They are either swallowed by the runaway family members as food, or they are beyond the control of the werewolf. The attack was torn apart. In short, only a few people from the center of the battle zone are still alive, and these people are crazy without exception.
The two ethnic groups in Asha County seem to have a quick and effective process to deal with this situation. Not long after the battle ended, the army immediately went to block the place and divided the survivors into two batches.
After witnessing the battle, those who can remain sober will be absorbed by the special department, because this represents the potential of those people to become bounty hunters and even extraordinary.
As for the rest of the lunatics who have collapsed in will, they were taken away and sent to public nursing homes outside the city for treatment.
And the damaged buildings in that area were quickly cleaned up, and the construction team renovated the land here early the next morning, and a residential area was transformed into a public square in less than half a day. .
Leo had withdrawn the Spirit Net when the local government and military handled postwar matters.
After this incident, he already had a preliminary understanding of the werewolf in Asha County, and through the strength of the werewolf, he was not difficult to infer the strength of the blood race against it for many years, if he inferred that there was no big deviation. , Then no matter what kind of accidents occur during his trip to Moonlight City to participate in the auction, he will not be in any danger.
This inference also made him relax a little, in this state of mind, he quickly entered a state of rest.
At noon the next day, Cartier came to the hotel and informed Leo and others that the rail car had arrived. She handed three afternoon tickets to Leo and they asked Leo whether they could still Sell some rune traps.
It turned out that the fighting in the city last night did not end because the runaway clan escaped. One of the runaway clan got into the sewer to escape the werewolf's chase and happened to enter the black market zone.
But before waiting for the runaway clan to be besieged by the guards of the black market, a rune trap set randomly by Katie during the day was excited. The spirit stored in the rune trap was attached to the dozens of blades that were detected after the trap was excited. In the moment, the uncontrollable clan who looked like a kind of mollusk was instantly cut into pieces ~EbookFREE.me~ and he was killed on the spot.
The powerful power generated by the rune trap combined with the mechanical blade shocked Carter. At that time, she let the craftsmen in the black market carefully study the manufacturing method of this rune trap.
Then not only the Turing roots in the rune traps, but she did not research a reason, even the ejection blades of pure mechanical devices did not understand the principle, because they imitated the installation of a blade that was ejected. The blades of the rune trap are not ten times weaker, so the craftsmen in the black market blamed the exaggerated power of the blades on the unintelligible runes, and believed that the unique technique of the towering wizard at this time could not be imitated.
During the day, Katie's attention was on wizard potions. She bought some rune traps and mechanical traps incidentally, and more wanted to take the opportunity to have a good relationship with Leo.
However, she never thought of the rune traps and mechanical traps that were ignored by her during the day, and then had the power to easily kill an out-of-control family, even if the situation was special at that time, the out-of-control family did not have time to defend. But it is undeniable that the power of rune traps is indeed far more than all the weapons that can be used now to deal with family members or extraordinary people. More importantly, these rune traps can be used even by ordinary people. Want to get more such traps.
