The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 1851: big city

"It's the same, what are they avoiding?" Leo looked at the empty town in front of him, and doubts arose in his heart again. saddle blanket

The underground town in front of me is already the four underground cities discovered by Leo through the artificially dug underground passages, and it is also the fourth empty underground town. It is not appropriate to call it a town, and it is more appropriate to describe it as a city.

At present, the area of ​​this city is roughly estimated to be more than ten times the sum of the towns that Leo walked through before. From the perspective of urban layout, the entire city has experienced at least seventeen expansions. The crypt where the city is located It may have been a natural crypt at first, but now it has been excavated manually, and the dome of the crypt should also be reinforced with a support frame structure with extremely high-tech content, and it is coordinated with the surrounding buildings arranged throughout the city. Thirty-one columns, so that this man-made cave did not collapse due to structural problems.

The difference from the previous towns is that the temple in this city was built in the very center of the city. It was built in the form of a pyramid, with the main body of the temple at the top, and the roof of the temple was only a line away from the dome. , I almost touched it, and the foundation part of the pyramid below is hollowed out. It looks like it should be a room, and it is guessed that it is for the priests of the temple to live.

Such a large city is roughly estimated to have at least a few hundred thousand residents, but at this moment it is empty without a single person, which is really abnormal.

If the previous underground town was too close to the ground, and they knew about the indigenous tribes and colonists on the ground from outside Yagulin, so they were worried about the invasion of the ground, so they gave up the town and went deeper into the ground, it is very bad understanding, after all Judging from the layout of these above-ground towns seen later, whether there are any fortifications, once an experienced army invades, it will be difficult for the residents of these towns to resist.

But the huge aboveground city is the same, with a population of at most hundreds of thousands. Under the ground, whether it is a colonial settlement or an indigenous tribe, there is no living area that can reach tens of thousands. It has a population of 10,000, and the outside is on the ground, and the passages are the same, which is beneficial to travel, and it is difficult to supply the front line. It is not the limit to send an army of two to eight thousand people from the ground to invade there. As for the tens of thousands, it is basically It is possible, so there is no need for the residents of such an above-ground city to escape.

So before seeing that huge and exaggerated aboveground city, the idea that came to Leo's mind was not the shepherds living outside that city, and even the people from these aboveground towns and Jiang Tianhan left the place where we lived , even if you are reluctant to use your own people to make some kind of sacrifice, you have to migrate with your family. It is extremely unlikely that it has nothing to do with the plan of the Paho people. Everything is just a coincidence. We made it entirely for other reasons. Such an abnormal thing. saddle blanket

In the next few towns, Leo went back and explored, and the only thing he found worthy of attention was that when the residents of the above-ground towns left, all the above-ground temples and altars could not be regarded as gods. The little snake in the abyss of the thing is taken away by the snake, just like Yagulin took away the body of the young snake banned by the crystal of divine power.

It is certain that whether Yagulin took away the body of the baby snake may be because the XZ is at the bottom of the statue of the little snake in the abyss. The fetish is placed under the altar of the temple. People in those towns may ignore that thing when they leave, so the only thing that cannot be explained is that there is no one. It is not the snake skin or the god. It may even become something that we spurn, not to mention that the snake skin in the temple is the reason why those shepherds left the place where the teenagers lived.

However, what makes Leo feel puzzled is that the farm may be able to provide some jobs to the city residents, but the number of jobs provided should be very small, only a few thousand people at the end, so what do the remaining residents do every day? ?

And the reason why we stop praying all day is that the little dark snake is not dead yet, and we want to resurrect the little dark snake through prayer. It is recorded under the lowest layer of slate books that the little snake helped our ancestors get rid of the pursuit from the enemy, helped us pass through the safe world above the ground, and came to that dangerous place to recuperate, and even worsened for us. Surviving there gave us the blood of the gods and made us the heirs of the gods. It is suspected that the so-called dark snake should be the same as the abyss snake of the white forest system.

The books in the library on the first floor are of little value to Leo, because those slate books are all reference books on domestication of some ground creatures and breeding of various edible mosses and mushrooms. The harvest in the reference book is not to know that the city has built more than a hundred small and large farms around the city. After that, these above-ground towns are actually rebuilt from an abandoned farm, and the food produced by those farms is all used. To supply the daily needs of the residents of the city.

Except for the military camp, there is no library in that city on the ground. The library is the same as the huge pyramid building above the temple, but the books outside the library are not the same. They are not only paper books, but also some kind of leather books. , but a piece of light and the same stone.

[Xiaoxiang APP search "Spring gift" New users get 500 book coins, old users get 200 book coins] The closer the city is to the temple, the more obvious the architectural style is with the characteristics of Vinylon, such as the circle closest to the temple The buildings in the urban area have lost the obvious ancient indigenous tribal style, highlighting a roughness, and the more they expand inward, the more rigorous and simple the architectural style becomes. The architectural style of the first circle of urban areas has not been compared with other urban areas. There is no difference between my aboveground towns, they are all so single and have no characteristics. saddle blanket

Because of mastering the language of the shepherds at the same time, Leo's reading speed slowed down a lot before. When I was only one year old, I came to the library on the top floor and finished reading the last stone book. I also understand what these unemployed people in the above-ground city are doing every day.

Ever since, Jiang Tian started a series of explorations on the city behind his eyes. The exploration process was very sloppy, and he used the white deer divine power recovered during that time to create the white deer mark, so that he could not use the spiritual net smoothly. Scan every detail of the city over and over again.

It can be seen from this that the soldiers outside the barracks should know that before we leave, it is possible to come back in a short time, otherwise they will use that method to preserve those weapons.

Just like other aboveground towns, the outsiders cleaned up their residences very clean when they left, and even the streets in the city were clean. Judging from the clothes and other daily items left behind, that People outside did not think about leaving for too long when they left, but there was no food stored in all the houses, and it did not mean that when we left, we took all the food outside the city.

I also know whether it is because of the influence of the so-called gods that may exist on the top of the temple, or because the suppression of the world's laws has weakened the scanning ability of the spiritual net. The stone books, in my mental network, the symbols on these carvings are very vague and cannot be recognized.

In addition, it is the same as other above-ground towns, but the houses outside are of the same style, with the temple in the center of the city as the origin, and spread to the surrounding areas. Basically, every time the city expands to form a new urban area, the buildings built It would be completely the same, and that's why Jiang Tian was able to immediately judge whether the city had been expanded many times before seeing the above-ground city.

Since he had to go to the temple, did Leo stop being entangled in the fact that the spiritual net could not scan the stone symbols, so he ignored that matter for the time being, and then continued to scan the city, and also scanned The above-ground passages around the city stopped scanning and retracted the spirit net until they found the passage that the shepherds had left. saddle blanket

As for that spiritual experience, does it have anything to do with the abyss snake worshiped by the shepherds? Leo temporarily denies it, because since I devoured the pure power of the abyss from the abyss snake, my sensitivity to the power of the abyss has been several times weaker than before, and as I found it before Similar snake skins were found one after another in several aboveground towns, and before the power of the abyss was swallowed, the induction was doubled, and I didn't sense any abyss breath under this spiritual body. On the contrary, it feels like a divine power.

However, that military camp is also a city facility that makes Jiang Tian feel strange, because judging from the size of the military camp, the permanent troops outside there are no less than seven or seven thousand people at most.

Although, like the buildings in the above-ground towns, there are no patterns or symbols on the outside of the buildings that can be studied, but there are two less ordinary buildings in that city than other cities on the ground, and one is not outside the city. A small area was excavated on the ground, and this area was a military camp. Through the spiritual network, it was impossible to find a small amount of weapons left outside the military camp. Those weapons were not placed under the weapon rack, but soaked in a out of an oil drum and save it.

If it is certain that the city is underground, Leo can understand why there is a need for such a small army, but it is an aboveground city. Judging from whether there are any fortifications around the city and whether there are any protective measures inside the city, it is obvious that the outside is What safe enemy exists, and why was the military camp built without thousands of troops? Or why build such a barracks without a standing army?

Leo didn't think it was his own illusion, so I also became a little wary of that aboveground city. Obviously, the spirit body should be regarded as a part of the extraordinary power, and the spirit body existing in such an ordinary world is special no matter how you look at it. character of.

Prayer is not something Jiang Tianhan people outside the city do every day, and it is an important thing that can be stopped except for rest, and the object of our prayer is a **** called the dark snake.

Following the stone steps and climbing down the first floor of the pyramid, Jiang Tian retreated to the outside. At the moment of retreating, the induction device placed outside was activated, and then the induction lights on the front top were lit up. , so that the pyramid full of ancient atmosphere lacks a strong technological style. saddle blanket

Although it is the same for Jiang Tian without or without the sensor light, my eyes can't see clearly with or without any light, but without the sensor light, it still makes me feel more comfortable.

Before that, I was in the pyramid library, slowly flipping through these slate books full of symbols, because I knew that the language and characters of Jiang Tianhan people were born out of Jiamore language, so even if I understand The meaning of those words still cannot be analyzed through the language structure of the Gamore language to analyze the small meanings of some words that still carry the basic roots of the Gamore language, and then reversely infer the meaning of other words through those words, and gradually Interpret the text under those stone slabs.

The doubts in Leo's heart were not relieved by reading the books of the shepherds, on the contrary, they were less. I continued to walk towards the lower library.

About eight hours ago, Leo had fully mastered the shepherd's language and read all the books in the library on the first floor.

For the time being, Leo is still very sure about his deduction, but we are in the huge city in front of us, so we should be able to find fewer clues.

However, at the moment when he retracted the spirit net, Leo suddenly felt something strange, UU reading www.uukanshu. com seems to have some kind of extremely powerful spiritual body trying to take the opportunity to retreat into Leo's spiritual consciousness along with the spiritual net, but it seems to have overestimated Leo's mental weakness, and before it has time to contact Leo, it will It hasn't been dispelled by the psychic resonance that comes with the spiritual network. The whole process is just an instant thing, and the normal fluctuations generated are very strong. It is certain that Leo is focusing on the spiritual network scanning the city. Under the circumstances, it may be difficult to detect that normal fluctuation.

Leo was not too surprised by the appearance of a sensor light device with no technological style, because in a town after that, I haven't found any traces of technological devices. Obviously, those shepherds should I have mastered some technological devices, and the technological content of the induction lamp is not low, and the old earth era appeared at the same time, so even though it was scanned by the spiritual network just now, I did not pay any attention to it. saddle blanket

With doubts in his heart, Leo retreated into the aboveground city, perhaps because it hadn't been vacant for a long time, and most of the insects that lived on the ground settled in the city together, some moss and the like Plants have also appeared on the streets and under the walls of the city. It is estimated that in a short time, the entire above-ground city will completely change its owner.

You know, when Leo scanned the city through the spiritual network just now, all the houses scanned were residential houses. Is there a workshop? There are only so few job opportunities that the above ground city can provide, and the rest of the people can only do things, which is obviously a state that should not exist in an abnormal society, unless other people do not have other similar jobs every day to be done.
