The Mysterious World Under Steampunk - Chapter 1774
At that time, Leo found that the people of the city-state tribes in the central region didn’t pay much attention to the memory of the entrance of the holy tower being affected by some unknown force, because in his opinion, as long as he knew that the entrance to the holy tower must exist, as for the specific entrance He can find the location by himself.
It’s just that this time he obviously underestimated the difficulty of finding the entrance of the holy tower, because he searched all the places around the holy tower in various ways, but he couldn’t find the entrance of the holy tower, and he found that the inside of the holy tower is the same as the city wall , are all solid steel, that is to say, if the upper part of the holy tower has not changed, then the towering holy tower in front of you is actually a steel pillar.
“Could it be that those people have already fallen into some kind of hallucination before entering the three major city-states?” Leo returned to the outer wall of the holy tower, looked at the holy tower in front of him, and then looked at the dense forest behind him. The city-states of the three major city-states with the same type of steel buildings couldn’t help feeling a little suspicious in their hearts.
This suspicion is not a random guess, because according to the technical strength displayed by the mysterious holy tower and the three major city-states in front of you, it is fully capable of creating a false illusion that can affect all people who approach it. , but their mutated organs strengthen only the body, and have almost no effect on their spirit. Once they fall into the illusion of the spiritual level, they are absolutely irresistible, which is why those people’s memory about the holy tower will change. It became more and more modeled, and finally there was only one conceptual reason left.
Thinking of this, Leo vaguely guessed where the crux of the problem he was encountering now was that he entered the city in the wrong way.
In all the materials about the three major city-states and the holy tower, two elements are mentioned, one is to celebrate festivals, and the other is to walk through the only road full of monsters and enter the city from the main gate.
Although celebrations and festivals seem to be a time element, if you carefully sort out the data, you will find that this time element does not exist at all, because the celebrations of the city-states and tribes in the central region are different, and sometimes they even create their own festivals for certain things. And such a celebration festival can still be recognized by the three major city-states, which is obviously unreasonable, so the element of the celebration festival was first denied by Leo.
Since it is not the time element of celebrations and festivals, the key to making the three major city-states have a real illusion is the method of entering the city.
In the method of entering the city, there are two conditions, one is to walk through the only road that passes through the energy fog barrier, and the other is to enter the city from the main gate.
Passing through the only path was also quickly eliminated by Leo as one of the elemental conditions, because when passing through the only path, the main phenomenon that occurred was that the monsters would move away from the path and would not attack the entrants. There is no direct connection between the situation in the urban areas of the three major city-states. Instead, it is more like a kind of spiritual suppression against the visitors, so that their spirits can fall into some real illusion more easily in the future.
Since other elements have been negated, the only mechanism that can trigger the illusion of the three major city-states may be to enter through the main entrance.
Thinking of this, Leo immediately turned around and walked from the city wall again, repenting to go under the moat walls of the three outermost city-states, then fell to the ground outside the city, and walked along the corner to the main entrance of the city wall that he had seen before.
This main entrance is a very ordinary gate made of steel. The gate is about 100 meters high and more than 30 meters wide. No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t look like a gate that can be opened in a normal way.
Leo had checked it through the spirit net before. The opening and closing method of this door is a very primitive way of opening and closing. There is no mechanical device installed inside. It feels like a door that is opened and closed by manual push and pull. It is just such a door. If the 100-meter-high gate wants to be opened and closed by manual push and pull, then the person who opens the gate can only be a giant.
Leo came to the main door with heavy thoughts in his mind, then put his hand on the cold steel door, and pushed it slightly. At this time, he just pushed the door casually to feel the door. It’s just the weight, I didn’t even think about being able to push the door open.
But an incredible scene appeared in front of him inadvertently. The steel gate, which should not have any movement, became as light as a feather at this moment. Under the thrust created by Leo, a gap was slowly opened, and A burst of noisy voices came from the gap.
Leo was surprised by this, but he calmed down quickly. He didn’t continue to push the door, but walked to the open door, looked in through the crack, and listened carefully to the voice coming from inside. sound.
At this moment, he saw that there should be no one in the steel city in the crack of the door, but there are many people coming and going on the street at this moment. These people are normal human beings. There are signs of mutation, and their clothes are also different from those of the city-state tribes. From the perspective of clothing style, they are more like the clothing style of the Miaoniyom people.
In addition to the people, the urban buildings inside the door gap have also completely changed. They are no longer the steel buildings with completely unified standards and specifications that he saw just now, but buildings with various architectural styles. These buildings are no longer just used. Steel is a material, and some are made of stone, and there are even several floating buildings in the sky that use floating devices.
All in all, the urban area seen from the crack of the door is a normal, inhabited urban area, not an empty steel urban area.
Leo, who noticed the abnormality, thought about it calmly, and instead of pushing the door, he took a few steps back, then spread out his psionic wings and flew to the wall above the city gate again, standing on the wall overlooking the situation inside the city gate.
However, the situation he sees now is completely different from what he saw inside the city gate, and it is also completely different from the urban areas of the three major city-states he saw at the beginning. At this moment, the situation in the urban area is like two different Cities are being superimposed, one city is the deserted steel city, and the other city is the city he saw just now through the crack in the door. The two cities try to merge together, but there is always a little difference, which makes Both cities are in the superposition state between virtual and real.
After seeing this scene, Leo’s eyes shifted to the holy tower again. Just as the urban areas of the three major city-states are in a superposition state, the holy tower is also in a superposition state. One is the steel pillar that he saw at first, and the other The one trying to superimpose it is a huge tower hollowed out of rock, and the Valkyries standing on the outer wall of the holy tower seem to have become real stone statues.
Leo thought about it calmly, and casually took out a previously made wizard wonder from his body, and then threw it directly from the city wall into the city in an abnormal state.
Just as he guessed, when the wizard’s strange object fell into the city, it was instantly crushed into powder by an invisible force. Through the control of the wizard’s strange object, Leo completely felt the crushing force. The entire process of the strange object, and he was therefore sure that the power could cause some damage to himself.
After confirming that he couldn’t break in directly, Leo returned to the city gate below. After thinking about it for a while, he put his hands on the two city gates again, and then pushed hard at the same time, which seemed to be The heavy but light city gate was completely opened.
The moment it was opened, Leo could clearly feel a powerful and mysterious energy rushing from the city, penetrating Leo’s body.
The penetration mentioned here is the real penetration, any protective force prepared by Leo on the body can not stop the infiltration of this energy, this energy passes through all parts of his body very easily, giving him a There was an energy baptism inside.
However, apart from being able to clearly feel this energy, no power in his body could not react to the penetration of this energy, even the power of the Stone Throne, as if he could clearly feel this energy. The energy is just an illusion.
“Illusion?” Leo couldn’t help but think of a guess, and then thought of the records recorded by the people who had entered the three major city-states and holy towers, and he also had a vague guess in his mind.
And then, the evidence that confirmed his guess was also placed in front of him at the same time.
He saw that after the city gate was completely opened, the whole city was completely presented in front of his eyes, but what surprised him when he first arrived was that although there were many people walking, talking, and doing various things in front of him, they seemed to be completely invisible to Leo. Like the opened door, he didn’t take a second look at Leo’s side, even the people who walked on the street ten meters away didn’t look at Leo.
In order to further confirm his guess, Leo walked into the urban area, then reached out and grabbed a person who passed in front of him.
However, when his hand touched that person’s body, that person’s body penetrated directly from his palm just like the previous energy, which proved that everything in front of him was just an illusion.
However, what happened next made Leo’s already certain guess a little uncertain again, because after the person’s body passed through his palm, the person suddenly stopped listening and turned his head towards Lei Ou. Ou looked here, and then touched the place where Leo’s palm had touched before. There was an obvious puzzled expression on his face, but there was no sign of focusing on Leo’s sight, as if he couldn’t see at all. Same as Leo.
This person’s reaction undoubtedly showed that he should have felt Leo’s hand just now, so he stopped to check the situation, but he couldn’t see Leo at all, as if the two were in different time and space dimensions.
“Space, time?” Leo whispered.
For a long time, the study of space and time by various civilizations in the universe has been the core subject of all research subjects. Although space research has reached a certain height because of the subspace, the study of time has always been stagnant. , the only certainty is that there is a power in the subspace that can control time.
The reason for this certainty is that after the spacecraft forcibly breaks into the subspace without protection, it will fall into a wonderful state called time gap. When it leaves the subspace, the time gap will cause the universe The time on the spaceship speeds up or goes backwards by leaps and bounds, and the most direct result of this is that the spaceship that leaves the subspace will either be restored to a piece of iron ore, or it will become a pile of spaceship ruins. As for the people inside the spaceship Except for a very small number of long-lived species that can survive the acceleration of time, others either die of old age in an instant, or return to adult cells.
There was once an Omega-level advanced life body who personally entered the crack of time to directly feel the feeling of the flow of time. After breaking away, the flow of time for hundreds of years did not cause him much harm, and he also wrote down this experience. , open to all civilizations in the universe.
In his description, the time gap is not empty, in fact, it is full of objects that have entered the time gap in various times, including spaceships, entire planets, and even some stars, etc., and countless objects from various time periods Items exist in the form of a superposition state in the cracks of time. Only those with strong power can see through this superposition state and touch items in another time period.
Because it is public information, Leo has also read it, and the current situation is almost the same as the time gap in the public data. The only difference is that the Omega-level advanced life body can touch it in the time gap Items from other time periods, and what he touches are only phantoms, but the phantoms touched by him can feel his touch. This may be because his power is not strong enough to affect the surrounding forces. reason.
After Leo realized that the situation in front of him might be related to the gap in time, he changed his mind to continue exploring, because he was completely unclear about how the situation in front of him was formed. In case of any sudden accident, UU Reading www.uukanshu. com He may not even have a way out of trouble, so the safest thing to do now is to leave the city and wait until he finds a reason for this place before exploring.
For Leo, exploring here is just out of curiosity, not necessary. His real goal in Vanaheim is to find and absorb the fragments of the stone throne, so there is no need for him to do too risky things.
After thinking about this, Leo turned around and wanted to leave the city.
However, just as he turned around, someone behind him stopped him and said, “Your Excellency, are you going to leave just now?”
Hearing this, Leo stopped, turned his head, and looked at where the sound came from.
The person who called him was a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance and a round figure. Judging from his attire, he looked like an ordinary businessman. out of place.
When he saw that person, Leo also showed a little surprise on his face, and the reason why he was surprised was not because of that person’s outstanding appearance, but because the language that the other party spoke just now was French.
