The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 1544: How to use the test key

The latest website: Although the detachment organization has sent Dean Thomas to contact Leo and Sylvia, judging from the candidates they sent, it is undoubtedly that the other party values ​​and guards against themselves, otherwise, it is impossible to send Dean Thomas is a special member who is in the middle of many forces.

According to Sylvia's estimate, the Transcendence Organization should no longer contact them proactively in a short period of time, and will instead observe them secretly, and then decide whether they should be exposed to more core secrets.

For ordinary people, this kind of investigation period is not unacceptable and understandable, not to mention that this organization has sent a message through Dean Thomas to provide Leo and Sylvia with all possible resources, including not limited to experimental Materials, references, and more.

Judging from the performance during this period, the Transcendence organization has indeed fulfilled their promise. Among the various materials collected by Dean Thomas related to world mysteries, gods, etc., Academic City and the Transcendence organization can It is said that it is equally divided, and the Transcendence Organization also provided a huge amount of funds without restrictions on use to support Leo.

Obviously, Leo's reputation in the academic city made them think that in the near future, Leo would definitely become the dean of the academic city, so it was necessary to invest in advance, and they even secretly encouraged some scholars to create a similar future Let Leo become the dean of the inner court. If their vision is really realized, then the inner and outer deans of the academic city will all be theirs. This is also very much looking forward to for them.

If Leo really wants to join this organization and want to make a career in this organization, then he will never do unnecessary actions, he only needs to act at his own pace every day, and in the future he will definitely get what he wants. s things.

But the problem is that Leo's purpose of joining this organization is only for the secret of this organization. He has no idea of ​​doing a career in this organization, nor does he intend to waste time waiting for this organization to end the long inspection period. He is more used to taking the initiative. Go out and get what you want.

As a result, Joan and Petunia, who had nothing to do in the school city, were sent out as bait to lure certain factions in this organization to jump out of their own initiative, and now it seems that the effect is very good.

Although the detachment organization has very limited trust in Dean Thomas, and will not allow Dean Thomas to get in touch with the core secrets of the organization, such as the inner circle, the Holy Land, etc., but Dean Thomas can still use his own knowledge among scholars. Influence, to collect some information about the internal situation of this organization, such as faction information within this organization.

Just like most ancient underground organizations, the Transcendence organization is also full of various factions, especially their disconnected relationship with the Primordial Church, which makes the factional disputes in the Primal Church also affect the Transcendence. within the organization.

Among the various factions, there are naturally some radical factions. The shaman who planted the implant for Joan came from one of the radical factions. This radical faction even proposed to Leo to study together through Dean Thomas. The implant in Joan's body, and this just gave Leo a chance to lure the snake out of the hole.

Judging from the current situation, things are proceeding as Leo expected. The radical faction first planned to use tough methods to take Joan away, but after discovering that the tough methods were not working, they began to change their strategies and use gentle methods to take Joan away. Means to deal with Joan.

And Leo's request to Joan is to delay the time as much as possible and let them send more people to contact him. Penny, who is secretly observing, can follow the vines to find the base of this faction. You don't have to wait as long for what you want.

As for the safety of Joan and Penny, Leo is not worried at all. Before setting off, Leo specially created a set of equipment for Joan that can maximize his paladin strength. With a powerful presence, basically no one can threaten his safety.

As for Penny's psychic talent is really amazing, she has reached the level of a third-level psychic not long ago, and she can already use some psychic auxiliary tools, and Leo has also specially created a set of equipment for her. With the help of the equipment, she can even display some psychic skills of a fourth-level psyker. Coupled with her own hunter ability, it is enough to assist Joan in the dark. At least from now on, it seems that the two cooperate very well. , I believe that it won't be long before they should be able to find out where the secret base of the radical faction is in the Kingdom of Teresa.

In the next few days, although Leo continued to complete various research projects step by step to accumulate his reputation in the academic city, judging from the quantity and quality of research projects completed every day, his main energy should have been transferred to The key to the wizard tower in his hand is on.

Dean Thomas also discovered this, so he took the initiative to find Leo, hoping that Leo could transfer his energy back to those stagnant research projects in the academic city. As for how to use the wizard tower key, even he was curious , but not in a hurry.

However, Dean Thomas didn't know that this mysterious item that had troubled him for many years had been completely cracked in just a few days in Leo's hands. What needs to be done now is to see if Leo's own method of using the key can produce results.

"Aren't you going to tell Dean Thomas about this?" Seeing Dean Thomas leaving downstairs, Sylvia asked Leo.

Leo shook his head and said: "I don't know if it works yet, there's no need to tell him, let alone..." He paused for a while, and said: "Even if the method works, I don't plan to take him Go to the Wizard's Tower."

Sylvia froze for a moment and asked, "Why?"

"It's too dangerous," Leo responded calmly: "In ancient times, the relationship between the church and wizards was not good. It was common to plot against each other and kill each other. The wizard's tower must also hide a lot of traps for defending against the enemy, let alone Thomas, even if I enter it, I can't guarantee that I can get out of it, so I don't plan to take Thomas there before I completely master the wizard's tower. I won’t take you there, I will act alone this time.”

Sylvia frowned, a little displeased, but she didn't say anything, because she knew that Leo's decision was correct. Although she was already a demigod, the tower wizard faced the gods back then. , so there must be means in their wizard tower against gods and other non-magic forces. If she goes together, it will only increase Leo's burden.

"When are you going to leave?" Sylvia asked with concern.

Leo replied, "Tonight."

Sylvia asked again: "Is it here?"

"Of course not." Leo shook his head, took out the triangle key, and said, "I don't know what the reaction will be after using my method to activate this key. There is a lot of movement, so it is better to find a remote and quiet place, and the Tengluo Lake in the southwest of Xuecheng is very good."

Seeing that Leo had already decided, Sylvia didn't say anything more.

That night, Leo left their apartment alone, climbed over the high wall of the school city, jumped off the cliff outside the city, spread out his psionic wings in the air, and flew towards the lake he had chosen.

Soon he flew over a forest and landed beside a lake that wasn't particularly big.

This lake was formed because of an earthquake that caused the cave below to collapse and the ground subsidence. Because a kind of wisteria plant grew beside the lake, the students of the school city who came here to play named it Wisteria Lake.

Although the area of ​​Tengluo Lake is not very large, it is very deep. Because the cracks at the bottom of the lake are connected to the burrows below, the depth of the entire lake far exceeds that of most lakes on the Old Continent.

The reason why Leo chose Tengluo Lake as the location of the test key was because of the depth of this lake.

After jumping into the lake, Leo immediately dived towards the bottom of the lake, quickly passed through a crack in the bottom of the lake, and went directly to the underground part. It didn't take long before he came to the bottom cave.

There are many rumors about the deepest part of Tengluo Lake, but the most widely and widely accepted one is the rumor of a monster. Simply put, this rumor is that a certain true **** sealed a monster in the nearby underground a long time ago, and let It was in a deep sleep, and the earthquake that year was actually caused by the monster waking up from a deep sleep and trying to escape from the ground. As a result, its actions caused the cave to collapse. Not only did it fail to escape, it was crushed to death by the collapsed stones above That's why there is a monster's corpse in the deepest part of Tengluo Lake,

This rumor is very old, not only accepted by the local ordinary people, but even some scholars of the Academy City also believed in this rumor, but unfortunately let these scholars of the Academy City be disappointed. Apart from lifeless rocks, the only life is some simple plankton that emit fluorescent light.

After repeatedly checking the surroundings, especially the condition of the surrounding rocks, Leo swam to the middle of the crypt, and then took out the key to the Wizard Tower, secretly deducing the sequence to activate the variants on the surface of the triangle one by one. Spirit root.

After a few days of groping, Leo has completely unlocked the working principle of the key of the wizard tower, and also knows how to make the key.

To put it simply, the wizard tower key is a space rift manufacturing device with a positioning function. As long as you find the coordinates of the half-plane of the subspace where the wizard tower is located, and then activate the representative coordinate information one by one according to the preset input method when the device is manufactured The root of Turing will eventually open a rift leading to the inside of the Wizard Tower.

Although the method is very simple, it is very difficult to operate. In addition to not knowing the coordinates of the wizard tower pointed by the key, what is even more troublesome is that there is a counter-trap hidden in the key that cannot be cracked or removed. According to Leo's speculation As long as the exclusive code converted from the coordinate position is entered incorrectly once, this counter-trap will be triggered, not only destroying the key, but also attacking the key holder.

It is precisely because of this that Leo did not try to open the key in the school city, because in case of failure, he may be sure that he can escape from the counter-trap attack of the tower wizard, but he has no confidence in protecting the school city.

However, he is not insecure at all. Maybe when facing the wizard tower key, even someone who is also a tower wizard will find it difficult to crack the correct method of using the key, but Leo is different from those tower wizards. , he not only has the knowledge of the tower wizard, but also has the true eye ability that the tower wizard never possessed.

With the help of the Eye of Reality, Leo can easily see through the difference in the use of different Turing radicals in the key. By analyzing this difference in use, he can easily give those Turing radicals that are frequently used to the key. Selected, and then analyze the meaning and function of each Turing radical, and then divide it into Turing radicals for connection and Turing radicals representing coordinates, and then combine them according to the positional relationship, and finally form The Turing radical activation sequence he now speculates.

Although, in Leo's deduction, everything went well, but Leo was still very cautious in the process of activating the Turing root, and was always ready to deal with possible counter-traps.

However, his worry was obviously unnecessary. When all the Turing radicals in the sequence were activated, the counter trap did not appear, and the triangle-shaped key was suspended from his hand, changing shape like a Rubik's cube, and finally From a triangle to a sphere, and the Turing radicals on the surface of the sphere are all combined together to form a more complex and profound three-dimensional radical.

At this moment, a ray of light burst out from the key and enveloped Leo. Leo didn't feel any aggressive power from the light~lightnovelpub.net~ so he didn't resist.

When the light completely enveloped Leo's whole body, Leo disappeared from the cave at the bottom of the lake together with the key.

At the moment Leo disappeared, Sylvia in the deep school city immediately sensed that Leo's aura seemed to have left this world, but she could no longer sense Leo's exact location, and could only feel a vague orientation.

Leo had linked himself and Sylvia's life energy through a special skill in psionic energy a long time ago. This is a commonly used ability between psychic partners in the universe. Capable couples sense each other's condition.

As for the sensing distance, it changes according to the strength of the psyker's ability. In theory, there is no limit. For example, the sensing distance of Omega-level advanced life forms is across the star field, and weak psykers can also interact with each other within the planetary system. induction.

This is why Leo is not worried about the failure of the wizard tower key experiment, because even if he is randomly discarded by the wizard tower key to an unknown space due to a wrong method, he can still contact Sylvia's life energy to open up Spatial rift, back to Sylvia.
