The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

After listening to Sean’s words, Leo guessed: "Since the royal family knows that Count Drake is dead and the Poseidon artifact is in Death Valley again, should the royal family send someone to Josh County?"

Sean nodded and responded: "Five batches of people were dispatched before and after, one of them was missing, and the other four were unable to find Death Valley, but leaked the news."

"Where did the missing people disappear?" Leo asked again.

"Unclear, suddenly lost contact." Sean shook his head.

"Where is the last contact?" Leo asked clearly.

"In Yoshburg," Sean answered quickly, and then felt that the answer was inaccurate. He immediately added: "It's Old Yoshburg."

"Old Josh Fort?" Leo froze for a moment, carefully recalled the name that sounded familiar, and suddenly remembered that his body's ancestor seemed to be from Old Josh Fort, and it was the old Josh Fort. The survivors of the slaughter.

"You are talking about the old Yoshburg of the Holocaust?" Leo confirmed again.

"Yes." Sean nodded.

Leo frowned and said, "I remember that castle was completely deserted. After so many years, I am afraid there are no buildings left. How do they..."

"It seems that you don't know yet," Sean interrupted Leo, explaining carefully: "Ms. Charlotte wrote a book about the Yoshburg massacre a few years ago and became the kingdom's best-selling The book has also been adapted into a script, making many people go to Old Yoshburg to play. Those who live in Joshburg want to take advantage of this trend and get some additional benefits, they have specially renovated it. Old Yoshburg, and then acted as a participant in the Holocaust, repeating the scene of the Holocaust, attracting tourists, and now Old Joshburg has become one of the most important incomes of Josh County."

Hearing this, Leo suddenly felt a strange emotion in his heart, some annoyed and some helpless.

These emotions are entirely from the emotional memories left by the body, because for Leo, he grew up listening to the Old Yoshburg Holocaust, and has a different kind of emotion for the Holocaust.

The county of Josh first belonged to the territory of the Earl of Josh. Earl of Josh was also one of the earliest knights who participated in the founding of the country. However, like most of the nobles of the founding knights, the influence of the Josh family gradually declined. The county is also occupied by another new military aristocracy, so the relationship between the Josh family and this military aristocracy is also very poor. The two families often fight for the border territory. The two families have a large number of clan deaths due to these battles, so Both families are also dead enemies.

However, there was an alienation in the succeeding earl of Josh County, who believed that the two should not continue to be hostile. They should make peace and cancel out the previous things. The two people will jointly develop Josh County in the future.

To this end, the Earl of Josh restrained family members and even chose to retreat in some battles of interests, showing his peace of mind, and when he thought the time was right, he invited the elder Josh Fort of the military aristocratic family to discuss Peace talks, and according to local tradition to make an oath to ensure that no matter what the outcome of the negotiations, the patriarch and his people will not be harmed.

It may also be that Earl Josh showed enough sincerity that the military noble patriarch finally agreed to go to Josh Fort for peace talks. It seems that the battle between the two major families in Josh County, which has continued for a hundred years, is about to end, and Josh County will usher in peace. .

However, no one thought that even the people inside the military aristocratic family did not think that the patriarch had never thought of peace talks, and he planned to use this opportunity to wipe out the Josh family.

Later, in order to win the trust of the Josh family, the patriarch of the military aristocracy only took his eldest son, eldest daughter, and a few servants to Josh Fort, but in fact he had secretly mobilized a large number of personnel and lurked in the surrounding area of ​​Josh Fort. .

After arriving in Yoshburg, the Earl of Josh did not immediately start peace talks, but gave the best hospitality to the visitors according to the tradition of Josh County, using the best, best meat, and warm hospitality. If the patriarch of the nobility is not aware of the relationship between the two and sees the scene of the two people talking and laughing at the banquet, they may think that they are best friends.

After the banquet, Count Josh arranged a place for several people to rest at night, and said that the negotiations could be formally started tomorrow.

And the people of Joshburg also believed that the other party was expressing their good intentions because of the move of the military noble patriarch with their children, and the vigilance in their hearts became very low, and even the city defense did not arrange enough guards.

As a result, in the middle of the night, the Josh family thought that the sleeping noble patriarch led his children and knights, killed their servants, and sneaked into the gate of the castle, killing the soldiers who guarded the gate, opened the gate, and waited for a long time. Troops entered the castle and killed them as soon as they saw them. They slaughtered all the people of the Josh family in the castle. Only a few servants and craftsmen escaped from Josh Fort through the familiar terrain, and fled to the outside of Josh County. What happened in Shibao spread.

At this time, except for a few people who did not have time to rush back to Josh Fort in the field, all the others died in this massacre. It is rumored that the royal family members who went to Josh Fort to investigate the situation and saw the covenant Shibao was completely reddened by the blood of the Josh family, and all the bodies were also by the military aristocratic family

The people hung on the walls, and the means were extremely cruel.

This incident was extremely shocking in the Kingdom of England, because when an aristocratic family expressed enough goodwill to the hostile family, and faithfully followed its own commitment, when the hostile family came, it gave them personal safety and provided delicious food for a period of time. The food and warm bed, no matter how much hatred they had before, should not adopt any act of revenge at this time.

The military aristocrat who climbed up from the bottom did not know anything about the unspoken rules of the aristocratic battle even if he had a hundred years of inheritance. In their view, as long as the opponent died, it was a good thing. .

So almost on the tenth day after the destruction of the Josh family, the military aristocratic family was also completely destroyed by the joint attack of several knights around the family. All the family members were arrested without exception and hanged in Joshburg. On the walls, just as they treated the bodies of members of the Josh family.

The two aristocratic families who have been inherited for more than 100 years have died in Old Yoshburg, which makes the old Yoshburg have a terrible atmosphere of horror. No one wants to stay here for a moment.

The destruction of the old Yoshburg because of the Holocaust night, and the use of some of the agencies that the Josh family had died with, made the Yoshburg become riddled with crumbling, and the cost of repairing was no more than rebuilding How much is less.

But the biggest problem is that because the Josh family has no legal heirs, Josh County is taken back to the royal family, and the royal family is not very serious about this swamp land, and it is not willing to invest a lot of money to repair Josh Fort.

Therefore, a new Josh Fort was built on the land closest to Old Josh Fort. Although it is called Josh Fort, it is actually just a small village, and it is completely ill-named.

The ancestor of Leo’s body was a blacksmith who worked for the Josh family. He was also among the people who had escaped from Josh Fort during the night of the Holocaust, and he was not restricted because he was a freeman. After leaving Josh County, he did not go back, but settled elsewhere.

It’s just that he always remembers things about Josh County. In his later years, he even compiled what happened in the Holocaust and other things related to Josh Fort into family stories, and Leo’s body has been listening since childhood. These stories grew up.

Now Leo suddenly heard such a familiar name, and also felt a little surprised that the idea of ​​going to Old Yoshburg was also born.

Leo reached out and shook his hand. The bell hanging on the desk pulled the rope. After a while, he saw the housekeeper pushing the door in and asked, "Sir, do you have any instructions?"

Leo asked: "You help me book a ticket to Bosa County. I'm going to Bosa County tonight."

"Okay! Sir." The butler nodded and turned away.

After the housekeeper left, Sean also stood up and said, "Since this is the case, I will wait for your good news. I hope you will have a smooth journey."

"Wait." When Sean was about to leave, Leo suddenly stopped him and said, "I have something here that you need to deal with. Otherwise, I'm not in a mood to help you do this."

"Are you talking about a spy case?" Sean was smart enough to immediately understand Leo's meaning and asked rhetorically.

"Yes." Leo nodded.

Sean hesitated a little and nodded, "Although this matter is beyond my authority, I still have a way to remove the suspicion from you. You can rest assured that this matter will soon come to an end."

After finishing speaking, he put on his hat and saluted Leo, walked out of the room, and left the apartment.

It wasn't until Sean left that Leo dropped his gaze on the box. In fact, he didn't need to open the box, he already sensed what was in the box through the spiritual network.

In addition to two old notes, there is a bone necklace and a very old pocket watch. There are many traces of disassembly on the pocket watch. It seems that it should be from the royal family.

Leo opened the box and first took out the two old notes and looked at them. On the surface, the content of these notes was not the wizard's witchcraft, but the travel log of the wizard's tour of the Velon world.

But in fact, it is not the same thing at all. When Leo turned his sight into spiritual sight, the content of the note completely changed to another look. The two notes separately recorded the two methods of making magical objects , One is for the dead grass man, and the other is the soul box.

Leo carefully read the manufacturing methods of the two wizards and hidden objects hidden in the two notes, and his heart began to suspect that the royal wizard might not have died.

The reason why he has such suspicion is because of the analysis of the functions of these two wizards and magical objects, they should be matched, and there should be other matching wizards and magical objects, and the role of this set of wizards and magical objects, I am afraid it is used to make a lich.

Among the various legends and myths of the Velon world, the lich has always been the most special kind, because no matter how true the legend is, even the books of various churches list the lich as the most evil existence, but it is interesting Yes, no one in the entire Velen world has actually seen a lich.

However, from the knowledge gained from the seal of the weaver, Leo knows that the wizard of the tower has created a witchcraft that can deceive the weaver, which can keep the wizard in the world in the state of soul, Will not be taken away by the weavers.

It's just that the web weavers don't know how the soul wizard is left in the world.

Now seeing the hidden content recorded in this note, Leo immediately thought of this soul wizard, perhaps the legendary lich is this soul wizard.

It's a pity that Leo doesn't know much about soul wizards, most of them are from the mark of the web weaver. In addition, in the wizard's notes of Earl Drake, I mentioned that the content is probably about him and a soul The wizard has a deal.

"Will the soul wizard written in his notes be the court wizard of this royal family?" Leo suddenly recalled a bold idea in his mind when he recalled the information about the soul wizard.

Although this idea is a bit bold, it is not impossible, because some debris information revealed from the Dracker’s wizard notes, it is not difficult to guess that when Dracker wrote this note, he had landed And became the Lord of the Earl.

According to records, Count Drake has never been out of the sea since landing, so the sorcerer mentioned in Count Drake's notes can only appear inside the Kingdom of Engel.

Think about it carefully~www.NovelMTL.com~ At that time, those who were able to have a conversation with Earl Drake, who was a wizard of the tower, and had an equal deal with him, it seems that except the court wizard of the royal family of Inge, they will never be. There is no one else, at least there is no second person in his memory, so the soul wizard mentioned in Earl Drake's notes is probably the court wizard.

Thinking of this, Leo couldn't help feeling that he seemed inexplicably involved in a conspiracy, and the participants in this conspiracy seemed to have two tower wizards.

However, he was not worried or panicked, but was very excited, because his trip to Josh County was likely to encounter two towering wizards, and he might be able to get more secrets about the towering wizards from their mouths. You can also get the reason for the disappearance of the tower and the wizard's research on the mist.

After half an hour, the butler handed the train ticket to Leo, and then prepared a simple suitcase and suitcase for Leo. Before it was dark, Leo came to the train station and boarded the drive to Hoyo Trains in the adjacent Saab County.

I don’t know if it’s those who monitor him that the hidden technology is deeper, or Sean has played his role. In short, from leaving the apartment to boarding the train, he did not find a monitor sent by Congress to investigate the case. The spy case that affected him seems to have passed.
