The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 1631: Shadow Valley

The space barrier that passes through the shadow world is very different from the space barrier that passes through the real world. The difference is not only the strength of the penetration required, but also the feeling of penetration.

​​

When penetrating the real space barrier, most of them use the method of tearing space cracks. When penetrating, they only feel a pulling force from the space itself, but the space barrier that penetrates the shadow world cannot use the method of tearing space cracks. It can only hit it directly like hitting a wall. As long as it meets the conditions for entering the shadow world, there will be no much resistance, and the whole process is very similar to the feeling of drilling into the water. This feeling is not only due to the water pressure when entering the water. The squeezing feeling brought, and after entering the shadow world, Leo felt a sense of suffocation.

​​

Although he felt some discomfort, it did not have much effect on Leo. Soon he used Su's witch power to imitate Devina's shadow power infiltrating his whole body, disguising himself as a shadow creature, All kinds of discomfort on the body disappeared.

​​

After solving the problem on his body, Leo also began to look around the situation.

​​

As he knew in advance, the sky in the shadow world is always like a dark night, and there are stars and moons in the sky just like the real world, but these stars and moons do not run according to normal orbits, but are more like countless images that are constantly changing. Like the astrological chart, the positions of the stars and the moon in the sky will change every once in a while, and the changed positions are disordered and chaotic, giving the illusion that the astrological phenomena in the sky are false illusions.

​​

Although the shadow world is always fixed in the state of darkness, the shadow world is not completely dark. Apart from the stars and moon lights in the sky, some special ores and trees in the shadow world will also emit various lights, which may not be very strong. , but together they are enough to illuminate the dark environment of the shadow world.

​​

For example, the crater where Leo is now has this luminous ore, and the reserves of the ore are very large, all of which are distributed on the surface, and the light of the ore also illuminates the entire crater.

​​

Leo was a little puzzled that he would appear on the crest of the crater instead of the virgin forest he saw in the space between the cracks, but he quickly figured out that this might be the chaos in the shadow space. As a result, seeing it does not mean it can be achieved. The moment he entered the shadow world, the pulling force of the disordered and chaotic space randomly threw him to an unfamiliar place, while Devina and the tree demon Lutasi. It can be explained without being around.

​​

Although Leo did not think that the disordered and chaotic spatial power of the shadow world would affect his foothold, he had already noticed from the actions of the tree demon Lutaxi that he and the tree demon Lutaxi had entered the shadow world. Maybe not in the same place, this is not the malicious actions of the tree demon Lutasi, but the nature of the tree demon.

​​

Leo, who once lived in the Black Forest for a while, knows the nature of tree demons. Mischief and trouble are almost their life instincts. After the awakening of the bloodline memory, the tree demon Lutasi will inevitably be subtly affected by the nature of the tree demon. Therefore, she deliberately entered the shadow world one step ahead in a disruptive manner, borrowing the disordered and chaotic space power of the shadow world, so that she had to be temporarily separated from her.

​​

However, this was already among the various emergencies expected by Leo, so when he checked Devina's physical condition before, Leo also buried a psychic mark in Devina's body as a positioning coordinate. So when he found himself alone at the top of a crater, he immediately sensed the psionic imprint he left in Devina's body.

​​

Although Leo was unable to perceive the exact location of the psionic mark as clearly as in the real world due to the interference of the special power of the shadow world, he was still able to sense a general orientation of the lake, and he felt that he was waiting for that orientation. You should be able to perceive the exact location by getting close to a certain distance.

​​

After confirming Devina's position, Leo was about to leave and meet there, but some movement from the crater valley made Leo stop temporarily and turned his attention to the crater.

​​

I saw that the shape of the crater at my feet should be a crater formed after being hit by a meteorite. Although it seems that a long time has passed, I don’t know if it was the material influence of the meteorite itself, or the aftermath of the impact. It can be repaired. In short, there is very little vegetation that can be seen inside and outside the crater, not to mention trees, not even moss, only gravel, boulders and black soil.

​​

The real world corresponding to this shadow world should be the Middle Kingdom area, so there are obvious topographical landforms here, so there should be such topographical landforms in the real world, but in Leo’s memory, such a big crater is in the Middle Kingdom area. If it does not exist, then it is very likely that this crater is a special landform formed in the future Middle Kingdom region, which means that the Middle Kingdom region may encounter a serious meteorite fall in the future, but I don’t know when it is.

​​

It's just that the crater is not the reason for attracting Leo's attention. What happens in the valley of the crater is the end point of Leo's attention. I saw two groups of shadow creatures fighting in the valley of the crater. It feels like two races war.

​​

These two groups of shadow creatures have completely different shapes. One shadow creature looks a little humanoid, such as having limbs, a body, a head, etc., but all their parts are stretched several times. But the body size did not follow, which made them look like an arthropod.

​​

In fact, their movement movements are similar to those of arthropod insects. They lie on the ground and move with their limbs. Only when attacking the enemy, they stand up for a while, and then continue to climb down to move.

​​

The weapons that these humanoid shadow creatures use to attack the enemy are also very simple, that is, their limbs and sharp teeth, and their limbs have blade-like bones, which are exposed and extremely sharp, which can be easily pierced. Drive rocks or enemies.

​​

In addition, the sharp teeth in their mouths are also very powerful. When attacking, they will open their mouths like snakes, and then use their extremely strong bite force and guillotine-like sharp teeth to easily shred their enemies.

​​

The other kind of shadow creatures has no humanoid shape at all, because they are all a cloud of silver-gray mist. These mists seem to be conscious, they will avoid the enemy's attack, and they will also find the enemy's flaws, and these misty shadow creatures The attack method used made Leo very familiar. When these mist shadow creatures approached the humanoid shadow creatures that attacked them, the mist would quickly corrode the skin and muscles of the humanoid shadow creatures, and eventually all the bones would be corroded.

​​

The attack method of this corrosive mist can be said to be exactly the same as the mist barrier at the edge of the shadow world that he ate as a snack, which is why he stopped to watch the battle in the valley from the top of the mountain.

Unless it has the ability to devour and transform this corrosive mist like Leo, the attack method of this corrosive mist can be said to be incomprehensible, and the battle situation in the valley just confirms this, although the humanoid shadow creature is in the In terms of numbers, they have the absolute upper hand, but they do not have an advantage in terms of situation, but have a disadvantage.

​​

These humanoid shadow creatures exhausted every means, and used some suicidal attack methods, but there was no way to kill the dozen or so mist shadow creatures. On the contrary, many of their companions were injured or killed by the corrosive mist while attacking.

​​

If some of those humanoid shadow creatures are a little wise, they will immediately judge that they are completely at a disadvantage in the battle situation, and they should take people to retreat, and come back after they have found a way to avoid being corroded by the mist and can kill these mist shadow creatures. Tackle these misty shadow creatures.

​​

However, there is obviously no wise man among these humanoid shadow creatures, and the only thing in their minds is to attack the mist shadow creature in front of them.

​​

In this way, after a doomed battle for about an hour, the battle in the valley finally ended as the last humanoid shadow creature died in the corrosive mist.

​​

Although a battle between shadow creatures was over, Leo did not turn around and leave immediately, but was still paying attention to those misty shadow creatures.

​​

I saw that those misty shadow creatures did not pay attention to the corpses on the ground, but after confirming that there were no enemies, they dispersed and looked for something in the valley.

​​

After a while, a misty shadow creature seemed to have found something. The misty body immediately turned blood red, and it also emitted bursts of light, which made it stand out in the valley.

​​

The companion's signal immediately alerted the other misty shadow creatures, and they quickly drifted towards the signalling companion. One of the largest and most misty shadow creatures moved the fastest. The moment they saw the signal, It came to the companion who sent the signal.

​​

Then, I saw the misty shadow creature that transmitted the signal, stretched out a palm formed by the mist, and cleaned the soil in front of him, revealing what was buried in the soil.

​​

I saw that this was an irregularly shaped stone, about the size of an adult's fist. It looked no different from other surrounding stones. It could only be judged from the traces of melting and burning on its surface that it should be a meteorite. Fragments.

​​

When he saw that the misty shadow creature did not hesitate to fight another shadow creature for a meteorite, Leo immediately associated it with the meteorite fragment in Lake Narnia, but Leo did not think that the meteorite fragment Has anything to do with the Stone Throne, because the Stone Throne didn't have that special resonance when his mental web swept through that meteorite shard.

​​

However, for those misty shadow creatures, this kind of meteorite fragment is what they want to get at all costs. After the meteorite fragment is determined, these misty shadow creatures also emit various lights on the surface due to changes in their emotions.

​​

However, just when these misty shadow creatures were excited and happy to find what they wanted to find, they all had a strong hunger one by one, and this hunger was something they had never felt before, so The mental shock to them was also very great, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

​​

And just when they were at a loss, the inexplicable hunger instantly intensified more than ten times, and all the misty shadow creatures felt the pain they had never felt before. Clean impulse, and this impulse was out of control, instantly dispelling the only reason in the minds of these misty shadow creatures, they were instantly controlled by hunger instinct, and the surrounding companions who were still fighting against the enemy just now. It becomes their devouring object to solve hunger.

​​

As a misty shadow creature pounced on its companion, it instinctively launched the strongest corrosive force to devour its companion, and the rest of the misty shadow creature also rushed towards the nearest companion.

​​

These misty shadow creatures obviously have no vocal organs. Even if they are swallowed, they are silent. They can only see the rapid change of the color of the mist on the devourer, mixing them into a new color, and the process of swallowing is also extremely fast. of.

​​

In less than ten minutes, the dozen or so misty shadow creatures engulfed each other and merged into one misty shadow creature, and the size of this misty shadow creature became extremely huge, occupying almost a quarter of the valley, and the color of the mist also changed. It became deep black, like a black hole, and even the light emitted by the surrounding mountains and minerals would be distorted and absorbed by its body.

​​

I don't know if it was because he devoured too many companions, or because of other reasons, the body of the final winner became extremely unstable, all the mist was rolling violently, and the speed of the rolling was still accelerating, UU reading www. The huge body of uukanshu.com also dissipated a little bit in the process.

​​

In the past minute or so, the final winner was not able to retain his victory. His body completely dissipated in the self-disintegration, and the valley returned to its original calm.

​​

On the mountain ridge, Leo withdrew the devouring power that created the extreme hunger, and looked at the valley with no life, then directly used the psionic wings, flew down, and landed on the meteorite fragment Next to him, he bent down to pick it up, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it. At the same time, the spiritual net also penetrated to check its specific situation.

​​

"The Town Demon Museum"

​​

Although, he had already checked the meteorite fragments through the mental network scan on the mountain ridge before, but the process was very rough, and there was no way to know the confirmation of the meteorite fragments. For example, this meteorite fragment is not naturally formed. The body of the fragment should be some kind of man-made object, because although the interior of the fragment shows mineralization for unknown reasons, the core parts are all man-made metals. It can be determined that this meteorite is The debris should have been part of a certain device at first, and it fell with the device and turned into the current meteorite.

​​

Just when Leo was going to further analyze the composition of the man-made metal part of the meteorite fragment, an inexplicable sense of dizziness suddenly rushed up, making him dazed for a moment, and after this daze, the valley in front of him had disappeared. , replaced by a plain, and the meteorite fragments that were in his hands just now disappeared together.
