The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

The walls of the room weren't very thick, and the two didn't lower their voices when they were talking. Leo could easily hear the conversation between the two, but he didn't pay attention to it. After Su left, he picked up the phone again. Sir Roland's notebook, continue to decipher the above content.

At first, Leo didn't take the notebook sent by Sir Roland seriously, and felt that it would not be too difficult to decipher the deliberately scrambled text, but after deciphering it for a period of time, he found that he Maybe he misunderstood Sir Roland and the seemingly messy words in this notebook at the beginning.

Because he found that the arrangement of these characters seems to be very chaotic, but in fact there are rules in them. Through some fixed patterns, they are applied to these chaotic characters, and the redundant characters are eliminated, and then the remaining characters are reorganized. The same text can have different meanings.

This is not what interests Leo the most. The reason why he regards deciphering these texts as a serious matter is that when he came to Mines City, he tried to use the language of some civilizations in the universe where the Earth Federation is located on the train. The pattern was inserted into these words, and it was found that these chaotic and unidentified symbolic words were actually reorganized, and new meanings were interpreted, including the language of the Earth Federation.

"Language master!" Such a name came to Leo's mind at that time, and relevant information also emerged.

In the universe, some scholars of civilization have discovered through the research of various civilizations in the universe, whether it is a high civilization or a low civilization, the languages ​​they use have some mysterious connections, but they did not go further to find out this connection. details, only on the basis of this connection can a hypothesis of a language master be put forward.

They believe that the moment the universe was formed, a cosmic language was naturally formed. This language may be some kind of cosmic energy, just like gamma rays, which are distributed to all parts of the universe as the universe diffuses. It affects the creatures of the universe subtly, so that when intelligent creatures generate wisdom, they will involuntarily receive the influence of this cosmic language and create words and languages ​​that conform to the laws of the cosmic language. This original cosmic language is language master.

This statement has not been confirmed, but it is widely circulated, and the Supreme Council of the universe seems to agree with this statement.

Now that Leo saw the notes sent by Sir Roland in his hand, it was as if he had seen a physical version of the language master.

Obviously, with Sir Roland's knowledge and ability, it is absolutely impossible to create this kind of language master that is difficult for all civilization researchers in the universe, so Sir Roland probably copied these symbolic words from other places, and the source of these symbolic words May be the real language master.

However, Sir Roland didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional. When he copied these chaotic words, he also made many mistakes or even missed copies. This can be seen from the connection of some language symbols, so he wanted to go deeper. If we continue our research, we must see the real language master.

Although Leo is not a linguist or a civilization researcher, he is also curious about the language master that has never been confirmed by the civilization of the universe, and wants to take a look at this physical version of the language master.

Therefore, he is now focusing on deciphering the notes, so he can use this to get in touch with Sir Roland, who has left the Kingdom of England, and participate in the deciphering team he established.

When Leo devoted himself to deciphering the text, the time passed quickly, and it was afternoon, the sun had already set, and the room was so dark that it was necessary to turn on the lights to see the things in the room clearly. At this time, an undisguised violent power fluctuation came in from outside the house.

Leo's attention was also separated from the research state due to the interference of this force. He frowned and turned his head to look at the place where the power fluctuations came out. His sight seemed to penetrate the barrier of the wall, and his mental network At this time, it also spread out.

"Huh?" Leo soon let out an unexpected soft cry, and withdrew the released mental net.

Just now, when Leo's spiritual network spread out of the room, he suddenly felt a strong energy outside the hotel. This energy is like the energy pool of some military bases, stable and strong , and this energy is integrated with the nature of the whole world.

If you forcibly attack this energy, it will be equivalent to making an enemy of the surrounding nature. Even if Leo is a fifth-level psyker, it is impossible to withstand the attack from nature, so he chose the most correct way.

"I think this should be Mira Pombet's support!" Leo muttered to himself, walked to the window, opened it, and looked out.

Leo's eyes quickly fell on a middle-aged man surrounded by people and dressed with obvious gangster characteristics.

The figure of this middle-aged man is not tall, but because the people around him are all burly men, he looks a little thin, but even so, he stands among the group of big men, and the power exuding from him still makes it easy for him It becomes the focus of everyone's attention.

The violent power fluctuations came from this middle-aged man, but judging from the power fluctuations, this middle-aged man has at least reached the level of a third-level psyker, and he can be regarded as a strong man at the top of the pyramid here. .

It's just that, although the power fluctuations in this middle-aged man did not restrain and radiated out unscrupulously, it did not have any impact on the subordinates around him. Only people like Leo who have extraordinary spiritual senses can do it. Inspired.

Therefore, at this moment, all the extraordinary people in the hotel all looked at the middle-aged man.

This middle-aged man was also very sensitive. When Leo's gaze fell on him, he immediately felt it and glanced in Leo's direction. However, maybe there are too many people paying attention to him now, and this middle-aged man didn't pay too much attention to Leo. He just remembered the room where Leo was and his appearance, and then looked away.

At this time, Mira Pompeco walked out of the hotel, and those vicious men immediately stepped aside, and the middle-aged man ignored the sights around him, and walked quickly to Mira Pompeco, using a very The respected etiquette half knelt on the ground and kissed Mira Pompec's outstretched hand like a promising believer.

Just when the middle-aged man was standing beside Mira Pompeco, the power from Mira Pompeco suddenly surged out, wrapping the middle-aged man in it, causing the violent power fluctuations on his body to immediately subside, just like meeting Like the nemesis, the middle-aged man's expression became much calmer.

Mira Pombeko said a few words to the middle-aged man. After hearing this, the middle-aged man glanced around with a fierce look, and then followed Mira Pompeko into the hotel.

Leo also retracted his gaze at this time, turned to Su who had already appeared in the room, and said, "Do you still have confidence now?"

"Of course, my confidence hasn't decreased in the slightest, on the contrary, it has increased." Su raised his head confidently, then looked at Leo, and said, "The premise is that there are no accidents here."

"It's good to have confidence." Leo didn't make any promises to Su, he just responded casually, and then returned to the table, continuing to look at the notes in his hand.

After reading the notes for a while, Leo stopped, turned his head and looked at Su who was sitting on the sofa casually, as if he was in his own room, he couldn't help frowning, and said, "Aren't you going back to your own room?"

"No need." Su shook his head, as if pretending to be confused, and replied casually.

After hearing this, Leo didn't say anything, and returned his attention to the notes in his hand.

Su sat on the sofa very honestly at first, but soon she seemed to feel a little bored, walked around the room, looked back and forth, and finally walked to Leo's side after finding nothing interesting , looked over Leo's shoulder and landed on the note.

"Huh?" Su suddenly let out a voice of doubt.

"What's wrong?" Leo looked at Su with some dissatisfaction.

"I've seen this thing before." Su pointed to the symbolic text on the notebook, and said in a deep voice.

"Have you seen it before?" Leo asked with an interested look, "Where is it?"

"The Guga Desert in the Kingdom of Savile." Su didn't tell the truth, and told Leo directly, "Have you heard of the Guga Ruins?"

Leo quickly had an answer, and said, "Is that the ruins of the ancient kingdom buried in the desert?"

"Yes." Su looked carefully at the symbols on the notes again, and said, "I have participated in the excavation of the Guga ruins, and I have seen these symbols in the Guga ruins. metal plate."

"Where are those metal plates now?" Leo couldn't help asking.

"I don't know." Su shook his head and said, "At that time, everyone's attention was focused on the treasures scattered in the ruins, and no one noticed these metal plates at all. When I thought about it afterwards, the things had disappeared. , it should have been taken by someone at the scene."

"Did Savile Kingdom not pursue this matter?" Leo couldn't help asking again.

"No." Su said with a disdainful look on his face when he mentioned the Savile Kingdom, "At that time, those guys were all staring at the various treasures piled up in ruins, arguing over who owned them and where they would go. Find a few metal plates that don't look worth much."

Hearing what Su said, Leo didn't ask any further, but carefully recalled the relevant information about the ruins of Guga in his memory.

The Guga Desert is the second largest desert in the Savile Kingdom. It is famous for its quicksand. Guja also has the meaning of death in the local area, so it also has the name of the Sea of ​​​​Death.

It has always been a local legend that there is an ancient kingdom hidden in the Guga Desert, but no one can prove it. The origin of this legend comes from the ancient poet Montema's book, The Song of Guga.

In the song of Guga, it is described that the Guga Desert used to be a very prosperous area. There are forests, rivers, lakes and farmlands that can’t be seen at a glance. The ancient kingdom here is very strong, and the surrounding tribal countries are all Can only be attached to him.

This kingdom obtained knowledge from the gods, and relied on this knowledge to create a large number of magical items, such as flying shoes that allow people to fly, rainmakers that can make clouds and rain at any time, and so on.

With the prosperity of the kingdom, the rulers of the kingdom became more and more arrogant, and finally called themselves the gods of the world, which offended all living beings. The gods instantly turned all the land within the control range of the Guga Kingdom into deserts, no matter the ancient kingdom All kinds of magnificent buildings, or the people in the ancient kingdom were all buried by endless quicksand. An ancient kingdom that informed the Minsk continent disappeared overnight, and the content of the song of Guga ended here.

Because the content of the song of Guga is too absurd, because the surrounding countries and tribes of the Guga Desert do not have any materials and information about the existence of a kingdom in the Guga Desert. The kingdom was invented as a poet, and its purpose is to use the past to satirize the present.

But when a wandering tribe living on the edge of the Guga Desert inadvertently discovered a large number of urban ruins under a piece of sand on the edge of the desert, archaeologists from all over the world refocused their attention on the Guga Desert and the song of the Guga Desert.

Later, the archaeological team formed by the Savile Kingdom, according to the location of the city recorded in the Song of Guga, compared with the current Guga Desert, found some city ruins of the ancient kingdom one after another. The records are true. There was indeed an ancient kingdom in the Guga Desert, and the civilization of this kingdom was extremely high, because many strange metal parts were found in the ruins of the kingdom. According to the metal parts, it can be judged that these parts were some part of a larger machine.

However, after confirming the authenticity of the song of Guga, everyone was puzzled again, because judging from the size and civilization of the kingdom, even if the kingdom was destroyed, some small countries and tribes on the Minsk continent at that time were There should be records of this ancient kingdom.

However, in fact, there are no relevant records, not even legends, as if when the ancient kingdom was destroyed, all the memories related to the ancient kingdom were erased, so this also makes people think of Gu Jia The cause of the destruction of that old kingdom mentioned in the Song of Gods, the wrath of the gods.

When this matter was connected with the gods, all the unsolved problems seemed to have found the answer. Obviously, the gods' anger towards this ancient kingdom not only let it be destroyed, but even erased all traces of its existence. Only the gods can destroy an ancient kingdom so thoroughly.

Leo also read the song of Guga and related archaeological materials of the ancient kingdom at the old man Rembrandt. At that time, he didn't care about these things, and he regarded it more as a way for the various churches in the world of Velen to promote the gods. An example of Weili, and now it seems that the destruction of the ancient kingdom in the Guga Desert may not necessarily be due to the wrath of the gods, but may also be due to some powerful machines that are far beyond the cognition of this era.
