The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"It's the man from the blood shoe upper." A staff member who had a good relationship with Lagrom in the animal pen reminded him in a low voice.

After hearing this, Lagrom couldn't help but glance at the blood-red boots on the soles of those people's feet.

On Movit Road, although the city lord and the city council are in charge of all the power in the city, their vision is too high to see the soil under their feet, and the mud under their feet, which is not valued by them, contains a lot of power in the eyes of ordinary people. As a result, around the mud on the soles of the feet, all kinds of forces are constantly emerging like moss on the mud, and among these forces, the power of the gang is definitely the largest.

Someone once counted the number of gangs at the bottom of Movit Road, and finally got a figure of 127, but the person who counted this number also admitted that this number is not standard, because there are many gangs that are very secretive, It is impossible to find news with their views by normal means, so he believes that the correct number should be about double the statistical number.

Not to mention whether the correct number claimed by this good-natured person is really as correct as he said, the number of gangs based on the statistics alone is enough to shock people. For this reason, the city council on Movit Road still A special campaign against gangs was held. In the end, the official claimed that the effect was excellent, and dozens of gangs, large and small, were cleaned up. However, the locals on Movit Road knew that the so-called campaign was just a show. They have not been affected at all, because the benefactors behind these gangs are without exception come from the rich and powerful on Movit Road or other powerful forces in other places. With such a backer, it is impossible for ordinary suppression operations to hurt their core. At most, they will only take away Just some peripheral unimportant members.

The Bloodshoe Gang is not the most powerful among the many gangs on Movit Road, and it is not even comparable to the moderately powerful gangs, but among the many gangs, the Bloodshoe Gang is definitely one of the most famous gangs. The reason why they have such a great reputation is because of their cruel style and weird behavior.

The members of the Blood Shoes Gang are not particularly large. Since its establishment, the number has never exceeded a hundred, but this gang is extremely aggressive. It has clashed with almost all the gangs on Movit Road. Every time there is a conflict, the members of the Blood Shoes Gang Even if they die, they will take away the enemies in front of them, and the overall physical fitness of the members of the blood shoe gang is far superior to that of ordinary people, and it is not worse than those elite fighters, so under normal circumstances No, the big and small gangs on Movit Road are not willing to clash with outlaws like the blood shoe gang.

In addition to the good head of the blood shoe upper, some behaviors of the blood shoe upper after each battle are also weird. After the battle, no matter how injured they are, no matter how tired their bodies are, they will still take off their shoes by themselves. Soak the shoes in the blood of the enemy to make the whole shoe turn blood red, which is also the reason for the blood upper.

Although the blood shoe gang has a great reputation and is equally dangerous, they do not occupy a large territory on Movit Road. The main source of tax life in the gang is a tavern built in this urban area. The low-level members of those caravans always like to stay in this tavern to drink and chat when they are resting, which makes the blood shoe gang’s daily income. Quite impressive.

Regarding the fact that his goods would be intercepted by the blood shoe upper, Lagrom also expected in advance, so after seeing the blood shoe upper, he did not appear to be flustered, but took the initiative to talk to the little leader of the blood shoe upper, At the same time, he took out a wad of money and handed it to the little boss.

This time, the big man paid a lot of money, even if he gave some of it to the blood shoe uppers to make connections, after all, next time he can use this connection to help his employer get some contraband, and he can also open up some new business.

However, what surprised him was that the little leader of Bloodshoe Upper did not accept the bribe, but asked people to directly check what the smuggled goods were, and then decide what Lagrom would take based on the type and quantity of the goods. How much money will you pay.

"Are you blind? Don't you see what the mark on it is?" Although the item has been handed over, it is reasonable to say that Hancock's task has been completed, but the handover party has not taken the item away. The shipment was church books, and he still couldn't escape the danger of being held accountable, so Hancock walked over immediately and stopped the members of the blood shoe gang who were about to inspect the goods.

"I know it's the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce, but even the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce must follow our rules." However, the people from the Blood Shoes Gang didn't take the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce seriously at all, and still insisted on inspecting the goods.

At this moment, not only Lagros felt something was wrong, but even Hancock felt the abnormality of the bloody upper.

Although the headquarters of the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce is not set up on Movit Road, it has the most important branch of the Chamber of Commerce. Almost half of the main profits of the entire Chamber of Commerce come from the commercial road of Movit Road, so the branch established here Many people were also stationed by Filoria, including some right-hand assistants. In terms of power, the branch of the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce is definitely the top level among the many branches of foreign chambers of commerce in Movit Road City.

Because of this, the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce also often needs to deal with the local gangs on Movitt Road. Although the relationship with many gangs is not particularly good, there is nothing hostile. When encountering something involving the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce, Most of the various gangs will turn a blind eye, close one eye, and will not easily offend the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce.

However, the attitude shown by the blood shoe gang is completely different from the gang attitude Hancock remembers.

It would be fine if only some new gang members did this. Maybe because the new gang members were not familiar with the situation of the various forces in the city, they made some wrong decisions, but the problem is that it was the leader of the blood shoe gang who made such a thing. It looked like he knew the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce, but he still wanted to inspect the goods, which was obviously aimed at the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce.

If Hancock is not alone now, but with the caravan, he will definitely attack directly, even if it makes things worse afterwards, it doesn't matter if the chamber of commerce and the blood shoe gang have a bigger conflict, but now he is alone. For the dozen or so members of the Bloodshoe Gang who came prepared, he could do nothing but watch as the members of the Bloodshoe Gang walked to the shelf and were about to dig out the church books that were covered with cloth.

"Your shoes are very good. Who taught you how to do them?" At this time, a voice suddenly reached the ears of everyone in the animal pen. Although the wind and snow outside the shed were loud, everyone needed to shout. Only then can people hear their own words, but obviously this voice is not that kind of shouting, but a normal speaking voice.

Everyone couldn't help but looked towards the place where the sound came from, and saw an unremarkable outsider walking towards the person with the bloody shoe upper. This person was Leo who had been a bystander all along.

Seeing this scene, everyone had different expressions on their faces. Those who knew the way of the blood shoe gang had a look of optimism on their faces. They all knew that the violent temper of the blood shoe gang would definitely give this outsider A painful lesson, but Lagrom was a little confused, because he still remembered that he had mistakenly regarded this person as a connector before, and later realized that he was just an entourage. In his opinion, the other party should not be involved in this muddy water .

As for Hancock, he breathed a sigh of relief and had a relaxed smile on his face. Knowing Leo's ability, he knew that as long as Leo could help, these gangs would not be a problem, and he had overcome this difficulty.

It's just that Hancock didn't know that the reason why Leo came forward and asked a very abrupt question was not to help him, but just like his question, he really wanted to know who taught the shoes with bloody uppers. they do.

In fact, Leo noticed the shoes under the feet of the members of the blood shoe upper at the moment when the members of the blood shoe upper appeared. style, I thought of the outlaws of the blood shoe uppers, but when Leo saw these shoes, he thought of the abyss, because these shoes contained a trace of the power of the abyss, and the behavior style of the blood shoe uppers was also similar to that of a lower abyss race. Somewhat similar.

In his memory, there is a lower race in the abyss who likes to stain their boots or feet with the blood of the enemy after killing the enemy. This method allows them to obtain the power contained in the blood of the enemy after death.

If Leo didn't feel a breath of abyss on those shoes, he might only think that the behavior of the blood upper was just a coincidence, but with this breath of abyss, it was enough for Leo to be sure that there must be an abyss subordinate behind the blood upper. Race is manipulating.

Obviously, it is impossible for Leo to ask the little leader of the blood shoe upper directly to get the answer he wants, not to mention that the little leader of the blood shoe upper doesn't know the answer to the question, even if he knows the answer, he probably won't answer, so facing Leo Inquiry, the little boss just thought that Leo was washing him.

An uncontrollable anger instantly hit the little boss's heart, causing him to draw out the dagger at his waist and prepare to slash at Leo's neck.

However, when he had just drawn out the dagger, before he could take the next step, he felt his body was petrified and unable to move, even his eyeballs could not move, and he was not the only one like this, the animal pen Everyone in it is like this, only his target is still active as usual.

When the little leader of the blood shoe gang showed panic and fear in his eyes, Leo had already walked in front of the opponent and said, "It's better for me to do it directly, so as to save the trouble of distinguishing the real from the fake."

As he was talking, he saw Leo raised his hand and pressed it on the little boss's forehead, and then released it after just a press. At this moment, the little boss' eyes became dazed and out of focus, feeling like he was stupid.

Afterwards, Leo touched the other members of the blood shoe upper who were fixed to their bodies one by one with his hands. Without exception, when Leo let go of his hand, the expressions in their eyes became abnormal.

After forcibly searching the memories of the members of the blood shoe upper, the expression on Leo's face became a little dignified. Although he did not find out in these memories who taught the blood shoe upper to make this kind of shoes with abyss breath, but However, he found that the power of the blood shoe upper was far greater than the rumors outside the outside world. The blood shoe upper on Movit Road was just a branch. Every city in the polar mountains had a branch of the blood shoe upper. It can be said that the blood shoe upper The upper is a huge tissue that covers the entire polar mountains.

It's just that, unlike the publicity performance of the blood shoe uppers on Movit Road, the blood shoe uppers in other cities are much more low-key, so low-key that no one will find that the blood shoe uppers have covered the entire polar mountain city.

Such an organization with such a huge coverage and deliberately concealing its strength is controlled by abyssal forces behind it. Coupled with the rejection of the Church of the True God by the polar mountains, it is difficult not to make Leo have some bad associations, such as coming from the abyss. His power has already taken root in the polar mountains.

At this time, Leo couldn't help but think of Sylvia, because he sensed that Sylvia had come to Movit Road when he was at the outpost, and he was sure that Sylvia didn't come here to greet him. This made him wonder if Sylvia was attracted by the abyssal forces hidden here.

While Leo was thinking about things, he also lifted the confinement of everyone in the animal pen. Without exception, all the people in the blood shoe gang fell to the ground and passed out. Obviously, searching their memories forcibly made them feel extreme. Painful, it would be good for them to pass out now, at least free from the tearing headache.

As for the others who are still immersed in the state of being imprisoned just now, with a look of shock on their faces, only Hancock quickly recovered, walked in front of Leo, thanked Leo for his shot, and helped him solve the trouble .

"Your troubles have not been resolved yet." Leo looked at Hancock and said, "Just now I searched the memories of those people and found that someone is going to deal with your Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce. You'd better go back to the branch of the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce as soon as possible." The ministry told them to be careful."

Hearing what Leo said, Hancock didn't question it, because the performance of the blood shoe upper just now made him wonder if something happened to the branch of the Ice Bear Chamber of Commerce in the city, and now Leo's reminder only confirmed his guess.

Afterwards, he didn't seem to intend to ask for the final payment, and he didn't say anything to Ragrom, who still hadn't recovered. He wanted to apologize to Leo, and hurried out of the animal pen, hired a carriage, Headed towards the branch.

After Hancock left, Leo did not continue to stay here, but also walked out of the animal pen and walked towards the center of the city along the main road.

It took a while for the other people in the animal pen to return to normal. After Lagrom came to his senses, he couldn't wait to lead the beast full of forbidden books and quickly left this place of right and wrong. As for the animal pen, None of the staff members stepped forward to check on the members of the Bloody Shoes, but let these people lie on the ground and be covered by the snow blowing in from the door, turning them into snowdrifts.
