The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Facing the siege of a group of werewolves who showed their fierceness, Leo looked very calm. He looked around, smiled with some disdain, and then directly used his psychic power to imitate the overall atmosphere of the stone throne in his consciousness.

Although the stone throne that Leo imitated through psychic power is less than one ten thousandth of the real stone throne, the aura of a superior person contained in it is not much different.

And when this kind of aura was formed on Leo, the werewolves around were more beastly than human, and their instincts were more than rational, all instinctively developed fear, and fled directly back to the surrounding woods and abandoned factory buildings slightly, but seriously Some of them just passed out or lay on the ground not daring to look up.

"Although I think it is true that these reckless little guys should be given some lessons to let them know that werewolves are really not the strongest race in the world, but I don't want this kind of lesson to become their psychological shadow and make them really turned into a dog." At this time, Beluwulf's voice came out from the woods, and after the woods shook for a while, his huge body appeared in front of Leo, and he asked directly: "Wizard, we just did it yesterday. An agreement has been reached, don't you want to go back on your word today? You know, I paid in advance."

"Of course not, what I promised will definitely be done." Leo dispelled the stone throne in his mind, and then said seriously: "I have already investigated what you asked me to investigate."

"What?" Beluwulf showed a surprised look on his face, and said displeasedly: "Wizard, you didn't just find some explanation and clues to perfuse me, did you?"

Leo smiled and said, "Of course not. The results of the survey I mentioned will be judged by you and Dawson Quivan."

Beluwulf also grinned, showing an inexplicable smile that was not very good-looking, and pretended to be surprised and said: "You even found Dawson, then you should bring him here immediately!"

"Mr. Beluwulf, since I have come here, I am naturally sure that Mr. Dawson Quivan is here with you," Leo looked at the exaggerated Beluwuf with a calm expression, and said, "It is still Please don't waste your time and mine, take me to see Mr. Dawson, let me tell you the results of the investigation, and end this matter."

Beluwulf heard the words, put away his inexplicable smile, then stared at Leo for a long time, and said, "No wonder my clansmen hate you wizards so much. Now it seems that you are not very likable."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked into the woods. Leo didn't care what Beruwuf said just now, and followed him.

After Leo left, the werewolves who had been suppressed by the power of the Stone Throne before and couldn't move were all slowed down, got up from the ground one after another, and burrowed into the surrounding abandoned factories and woods with drooping ears.

Beluwulf led Leo through the woods and came to a warehouse, then signaled the guard outside the door to open the door and got in.

Leo also followed and entered the warehouse. Except for a metal pillar in the middle, there was nothing else in the warehouse. It was empty, and his footsteps could produce a great echo.

The somewhat abrupt metal pillar naturally caught Leo's attention, but what Leo noticed was not the pillar itself, but Dawson Quivan who was bound by chains on the pillar.

Seeing this scene, Leo was a little surprised, because it seemed to be different from what he had expected. In his expectation, Dawson Quivan should be Bellowulf's friend and collaborator, unlike what he saw now. The one who went up was a prisoner.

"What's going on here? Can you give me an explanation?" Leo frowned, looked at Beruwuf, and said with scrutiny in his eyes.

"Don't get me wrong, Dawson and I are not enemies, but friends!" Beluvulf expected that Leo would have such a question, so he immediately explained: "He was tied up here voluntarily, and this is to treat him. blood thirst."

"He actually has blood thirst?" Leo couldn't help showing surprise when he heard the words, but he was even more surprised that Dawson Kuivan was still able to maintain his sanity and thinking in the case of blood thirst.

Blood thirst is one of the unique diseases of the blood race, and it and blood addiction are regarded as two fatal diseases of the blood race.

Blood is the most important living condition of the vampires. The general vampires need to suck a lot of blood almost every day to maintain the survival needs of the vampires, while those high-level vampires can reduce the amount and frequency of blood sucking, and some even suck blood for several years. blood once.

However, some blood races have two special diseases due to unknown reasons, blood addiction and blood thirst.

The manifestations of these two symptoms are the same, both have an extreme thirst for blood, but blood addiction is more of a psychological dependence, and some methods can be used to reverse these dependence and cure blood addiction, and blood thirst The disease is hopeless, it will keep the blood race in a state of hunger and thirst all the time, and a large amount of blood is needed to relieve this state of hunger and thirst, but sucking a large amount of blood will aggravate the symptoms of blood thirst, and it will continue to accumulate. Ultimately turning the Kindred into a monster that only thirsts for blood.

Back then, the disaster that almost wiped out the blood clan was caused by a blood thirsty blood clan, so after that incident, the blood thirsty blood clan has almost become a taboo existence. , will be hunted down immediately.

There have been people suffering from blood thirst in the Kui Fan, Quining and other families, and one of them is a direct heir who has the right to inherit the duke, and their identities did not bring them any benefits. hunted.

Undoubtedly, according to the attitude of the blood race towards blood thirst, once Dawson Quivan's identity as a blood thirsty patient is discovered, Dawson Quivan will inevitably be hunted down by the blood race, and there will be no second result.

So after knowing this, Leo also turned his head to look at Beruwuf, and said, "Do you know what will happen if the news that Mr. Dawson has blood thirst spreads? You trust me like this? "

"It doesn't matter, even if you know it, it doesn't matter." Beluwulf said disapprovingly: "Has anyone ever seen a bloodthirsty vampire with reason?"

As he spoke, he walked towards Dawson Quivan who was tied to the metal pillar.

After thinking about it for a while, Leo felt that what Beluwuf said was reasonable. Any blood race who saw Dawson Quivan would only think that he was a blood addict with hope of cure, not another kind of terrible of terminal illness.

Because the willpower was resisting the discomfort caused by blood thirst, Dawson Quivan seemed very tired, and his perception of the surroundings became much duller. He didn't notice them until Leo and Beruwulf came to him. And raised his drooping head, showing a tired face, looked at Leo, and smiled wryly: "I'm sorry, Lord Leo, let you see the most unbearable scene of me!"

"It's okay." Leo felt an inexplicable pressure on his body when Dawson Quivan looked at him with those blood-red eyes. This pressure was not because of the madness contained in those blood-red eyes. It is a kind of suppression by the superior, just like the method he used on those werewolves just now, it seems that Dawson Kuivan is also using the same method to forge a higher life form on himself, causing life form High and low pressure on the top.

Dawson Quivan also seemed to know that his situation was wrong, so he lowered his head again, and then asked, "Have you solved the mystery of the things I left in the museum office?"

"Leave this matter aside, there is one thing I want to ask Lord Dawson." Leo was not in a hurry to tell his discovery immediately, but asked Dawson Quivan seriously.

"Ask!" Dawson Quivan froze for a moment, then nodded.

Leo asked straightforwardly: "How many people in the blood clan oppose your investigation of the origin of the blood clan and werewolves, and those among them are capable of burning down the museum without being held accountable?"

"What? Burn down the museum?" Dawson Quivan was taken aback, not understanding what Leo meant.

So, Leo explained what happened in the museum in detail, and also told him about being attacked by a higher blood race.

After listening to Leo's narration, Dawson Quivan's already tired face became even paler, and he was chanting words. Although his voice was a little low, Leo could still hear clearly, as if he was talking about why In this way, why should it be like this, it is obvious that he is also extremely shocked by what happened in the museum, and he can't even believe it.

Leo just stood there silently at this time, didn't say anything more, and didn't let Dawson Quivan answer his previous question, while Beluwulf stood there with a serious expression, only the anger in his eyes , expressing his inner emotions.

It took a while for Dawson Quivan to calm down, but his tone was still trembling, and he said, "Thank you for telling me this news. This news is very important to me, but..." As he spoke, He paused for a moment, and then said: "However, this matter is an internal matter of the blood clan. I hope Lord Leo will not interfere, and treat it as if you don't know about it."

"It's not a question of whether I want to intervene, but whether the blood clan is willing to let me go." Leo shook his head slightly and said, "What if the blood clan people come to trouble me because of this matter?"

Dawson Kuifan said with certainty: "Don't worry, as long as you don't go into this matter any more, I believe those people in the clan won't ask for trouble."

Leo used a slightly official set of words, and said: "I can only guarantee that I will not take the initiative to provoke the blood race if the safety conditions permit."

"Thank you." Dawson also knew that he would accept it as soon as it was good, and did not make any further requests.

Afterwards, Leo took out those parasitic eggs and put them on the ground, then got to the point and said: "Your guess is right, this thing has a lot to do with the origin of your vampires and werewolves."

Dawson Quivan and Bellowulf's breathing became rapid at the same time. The two of them have been studying these things for a long time, and they have never been clear about what this thing is. The only thing they know is that their intuition tells them that this thing is different from the two. The origin of the race is related.

"What is this?" Beluwulf asked anxiously.

"Parasitic eggs." Leo also gave the answer directly.

"Parasitic eggs?" Dawson and Beruwulf were stunned when they heard the words. They both felt that the object represented by this noun didn't look like a good thing.

Before the other party wanted to ask, Leo asked his own question first, and said, "Can you tell me how you found this thing, and how did you think it was related to the origin of the two races?"

After this question was raised, both Dawson and Beruwulf fell into silence, as if there was something not to say.

After hesitating for a while, when Beruwulf was about to answer Leo's question, Dawson stopped him, and then said: "Let me tell you about this! Your tongue is too straight, and some things can't be explained clearly." .” He said, without waiting for Beluwuf to refute, he said directly to Leo: “Actually, this matter is still related to an expedition between me and Beruwulf.”

Afterwards, Dawson slowly told Leo about their experience. Leo knew that Dawson must have concealed something, but it didn't matter, because what Dawson said already contained what he wanted .

It turned out that Dawson and Beruwulf once found a relic of prehistoric civilization in the mountainous area between Maris and Deliyat. At that time, they found a lot of relics of prehistoric civilization in that relic, which is definitely a great deal. Harvest, it is no exaggeration to say that as long as they sell those relics of prehistoric civilization, then they can definitely become the richest vampires and werewolves.

However, just when they were about to explore the ruins deeper and try to find more things, they accidentally touched the hidden trap in the ruins, and then a ray of light shone from the depths of the ruins, sweeping across them in an instant , Then they passed out, and when they came, the entire ruins disappeared, and there was only a flat bowl-shaped pit left where the ruins were, and they lay on the edge of the pit, and they dug The relic that came out is not far away.

They don't know what's going on, they just know they're not hurt, at least on the surface.

Afterwards, they brought the excavated relics back to the place where they cooperated for research, but found that there were problems with their bodies.

For example, Beluwulf was unable to maintain the human form at first, and had to maintain the werewolf form all the time. Later, he could not even maintain the werewolf form with the face, and became the current giant wolf form.

Beluwulf's change is not bad, because the werewolves have a high respect for their clansmen who can change into wolf form, and giant wolves like Beluwulf are regarded as the incarnation of the ancestor wolf god, and thus also It gave him the privilege of not being able to see elders and patriarchs.

On the other hand, Dawson Quivan was much more unlucky. He didn't get any benefits, only blood thirst, which was regarded as taboo by the whole blood race.
