The Mysterious World Under Steampunk Chapter 33

　　 Leo put the queen in his hand next to the king, and did not make further attempts, such as seeing what will happen after instilling psionic power, etc. Now this occasion is not a suitable place for experimentation.

　　After putting down the two guns, Leo put his eyes on the two daggers of the same shape inside the box. The two daggers are very simple in shape, more like a dagger, the main body of the handle is some kind of animal bone, and a layer of hollow metal is wrapped on the outside. Although the main body of the blade is also forged from metal, the surface is not The metallic luster, on the contrary, showed an off-white color, which looked like a bone in the distance.

　　 Perhaps because of the precedent of firearms, Leo is also looking forward to these two daggers.

"These two daggers are very sharp," seeing Leo's eyes on the dagger. Jean Valjean next to him proactively introduced, "Even if it is a steel plate, it can be cut like butter, but these two daggers. One disadvantage is that it is too heavy."

　　 "How heavy can a dagger be?" Jason heard the words from the side and walked unbelievably to the table, reaching for one of the daggers.

　　 But what he didn't think was that the dagger in the box stayed still, and then he tried to hold it with one hand, and he could only slightly lift the dagger a little. Until he used both hands, he barely picked it up completely. However, just picking up a dagger already made him use his full strength, and wanted to swing the dagger, I am afraid it is impossible, just like the multi-tube flintlock he just mentioned, and soon his His hands were sore and he had to put the dagger back into the box.

"Your strength is so great," Jason said, rubbing his sour arm and admiringly towards Jean Valjean. "Just now you were able to take these two daggers so easily." He said, he said I also looked at Leo and said, "Leo, your strength is not small. You just took it with one hand."

　　 Hearing Jason's words, Leo also remembered that he was holding the box with one hand, which made him a little puzzled. Because he felt that the box was a little heavy just now, according to the comparison of the record of the vice brain system, the weight of the two firearms of the king and the queen already occupied more than 90% of the box, the rest should be the weight of the box itself, and the two daggers According to this comparison, their weight is almost equal to zero.

　　 "I just held the box, not the dagger." Jean Valjean explained it, and gestured to Jason: "You take the box now and see."

　　 "Take the box? How can this be picked up?" Jason didn't understand it. He held the box with both hands and lifted it easily. The weight that should have been extremely heavy disappeared.

　　Because the expected weight did not appear, Jason, who had no defense at all, was thrown out by the force and the body and the dagger were thrown out.

The box and the dagger flew through an arc in the air and landed on the ground not far away, and the dagger was just pointed down, like a butter stick, into the steel plate on the ground, until the handguards were stuck before stopping. .

　　 Jason was still at a loss at the moment, and Leo showed a look of interest, walked to one of the daggers, reached for the handle of the dagger, and slowly pulled the dagger out of the ground.

As Jason just showed, the dagger caught in Leo's hand is indeed very heavy, even several times heavier than the flintlock gun he just picked up with one hand. .

　　 Then he motioned Jason to pick up the box, hand it to himself, and then put the dagger back into the box, carefully releasing the hand holding the dagger, and at the same time the arm holding the box was also slightly exerted.

　　However, as Leo guessed, the weight did not appear on the box, as long as it was across the box, or more accurately, as long as it did not directly touch the dagger, the weight would not appear.

After 　　, he picked up another dagger stuck on the ground. The same situation and the same weight happened again.

After Leo put the dagger back into the box, he tried to pick up the dagger by other methods. For example, he took a piece of cloth to wrap the handle of the dagger, held the cloth up, and picked up a Jean Valjean machine. Use iron pliers to hold the dagger and other test methods,

　　Through these methods, Leo quickly figured out the conditions for the weight of the dagger to appear.

He found that the weight of the dagger will not only appear when it is touched by one's own hands. When doing this action, the weight will appear even if the dagger is not touched by one's hands. What is more interesting is that even if the dagger is not picked up, it is just put in the box Holding the box by hand, the weight of the dagger will also appear when you think about attacking a target with the dagger. It seems that within a certain range centered on the dagger, the dagger can sense the thoughts related to it in the heart of the person who owns it.

　　After several attempts, Leo, who felt almost the same, put the dagger into the box again, and was about to thank Jean Valjean for giving him such good weapons. Not to mention the two psionic weapons of the king and queen. Although the two daggers are not yet able to be used by him, judging from the situation of firearms, the two daggers should also be psionic weapons. He just did not find the correct one. The use of the dagger, and the peculiarities of the dagger also made him look forward to them.

　　 At this moment, a spark from the oil lamp on the table sparkled the surrounding area, and this flashing caused Leo to find some strange places on the blade of the dagger.

　　Under the eyes of everyone, Leo took the oil lamp on the table to the side of the box and adjusted the angle of the box slightly, so that the angle of light falling on the dagger was different. At this moment, the flash of the blade just now appeared again, and this time Leo, who saw the blade, was very shocked and excited, and even more puzzled, because the blade on the dagger and his weirdness on the Wizk amulet The lines are very similar.

However, the fact that the lines are similar is not enough for Leo to make a positive judgment. The reason why Leo really determines that the two are homologous is that when he focused on those blade lines, those blade lines It is also distorted from scratches on the amulet, as if it were alive.

　　 "Mr. Jean Valjean, can you tell me the origin of the dagger and the firearm?" Leo turned his gaze away from the dagger and asked with a smile at Jean Valjean.

　　 "Did you find something interesting?" Jean Valjean was very curious about Leo's move just now. He thought Leo should have discovered something.

It has been five years since the two daggers were handed to him together with the firearms. He knew some of the special features of the firearms and was able to reverse some mechanical principles, but he still knew nothing about the mysteries of the daggers, and he had given up on them over time. Dagger exploration.

　　Now Leo's behavior caused his curiosity again. He couldn't help but want to take a closer look before seeing whether he could find something.

　　However, desires and facts have always run counter to each other. He has not found any anomalies. The appearance of the dagger is still what he has seen in the past five years.

Although Jean Valjean knew Leo must have found something on the dagger, he didn't ask, but he looked at Leo with some envy. After all, he had taken these two daggers for many years but had no gains. People only took the dagger for less than three minutes, and found various discoveries. This also made him feel that it was a very correct decision to give the weapon in the box to Leo, and at the same time some inexplicable guilt in his heart was reduced a lot.

"The four weapons in this box were all left by my teacher." Jean Valjean did not know the state of mind. He answered Leo's question patiently and in detail, saying: "The king and queen are his own hands." It was made by him, and it took him more than ten years to make it barely completed. As for the two daggers, his ancestors handed it down. Once he was drunk and once said that these two daggers are the last relics of his ethnic group, and he is also him Is the last of the ethnic group."

　　 Leo was silent for a while, and said, "Your teacher is a Witzker?"

　　 "You also know the Wizicks in the Black Forest?" Jean Valjean was surprised.

　　This rhetorical question matches Leo's guess, so I have got the answer I want. However, he did not continue to ask more about the two daggers, because from the performance of Jean Valjean, he also thought that Jean Valjean, as an ordinary person, would know the real mysteries of the two daggers.

　　 Leo deliberately shifted the topic and said: "Do these two daggers have names?"

"No." Jean Valjean shook his head, and then there was a slight sadness on his face, said: "Maybe there was a name before, but the old man may think that after his death, the Wizks will be extinct, and the Wizks It doesn't matter if the relics have names."

　　 "Since that's the case, call it Gemini!" Leo also arrogantly added a name to the two daggers, then he closed the box and put it in his backpack. Instead of putting the king and queen in the box, he asked Jean Valjean for two holsters that didn't fit well, straddled the king and queen on the left and right sides, and adjusted the position slightly so that it would not hinder The gun stopped.

　　 "Have you picked your weapon? Let's go!" Martin seemed impatient and waited, urging.

　　Regardless of Martin's urging, Leo raised his hand to Jean Valjean: “Mr. Jean Valjean, I hope to communicate with you in the future. In addition, you are a mechanical genius and should not be buried here.”

"Thank you for your compliment, you are not bad!" Jean Valjean shook Leo's hand and then patted the wall again, proudly saying, "I don't think it's buried here, it's In my home, there are people who need me and people who need me."

　　 "Is it home?" Leo hesitated a little, revealing a blank look, and his face quickly returned to dullness. He said to Martin: "Mr. Martin, let's go!"

Martin, who had been eager for a long time, led Leo and Jason quickly out of the room. After Jean Valjean, they took a step and arrived at the door. As if they had made a decision, they turned back to the workbench, hiding from the wall. A small box containing twenty special bullets was taken out of the safe, before leaving the room quickly.

　　 "Why is it so slow?" Martin, who had been a step ahead, was already impatiently waiting for the elevator. When he saw Jean Valjean's figure appearing in the passage, he shouted loudly.

"There are so many oil lamps. Of course I have to put them out before I leave. Otherwise, what should I do if there is a fire?" Jean Valjean asked angrily at Martin, then walked to Leo's side and took the initiative to shake Leo's. He handed the box to Leo and said, "You may need these special bullets. I hope to see you later, Mr. Dodd."

　　 "Thank you." Leo was also polite, took the box and said, "I also hope to see you before I leave."

　　 Jean Valjean smiled, turned and closed the door of the elevator, and under Martin's repeated urging, pushed the control lever of the elevator and fell from the sky according to the original path.

After returning to Jean Valjean's studio, Martin immediately took Leo and Jason and left. They walked through a long and dark passage through several markets and residential areas inside the cage city. Came to a place like a platform.

　　 said that this is the platform, because there are many people waiting for the bus.

　　 I saw here that it was supposed to be a street inside the cage city, but compared to other narrow streets, this street is obviously much more spacious and very straight.

On this road, except for the street at the lowest level, starting from the second floor~www.mtlnovel.com~ Each floor is separated by a distance of about five meters. There is an I-shaped steel bar that penetrates into the building skeleton on both sides across the street. Two rails running back and forth are laid on these steel bars.

　　At this moment, a row of ten-seat rail cars full of passengers are traveling back and forth on the rails. These rail cars are very similar to the high-altitude sightseeing rail cars of the Earth Federation Nostalgic Paradise, except that there are no high-tech equipment for entertainment.

　　 The buildings where Leo is now, from the second floor to the top, were all vacated, the walls against the street were demolished, and reinforced steel frames and steel plates were laid, which were specifically used as platforms for rail cars.

　　After leading Leo and Jason into the platform, he did not walk into the caged workers waiting on the platform, but instead turned to a passage in the building and entered a small room.

　　 This room has a dedicated elevator. On the sides of the elevator are four heavily armed soldiers wearing worker costumes. When these soldiers saw Martin coming over, they looked very excited one by one. Their eyes were also full of admiration. They followed the nonstandard French military salute and greeted Martin with a language he had never heard before.

At the moment, Martin's temperament became very kind, giving a feeling of close love. After signaling to the soldiers next to the elevator to inform the console above to put down the elevator, he took advantage of the time when the elevator fell, and around The soldiers talked kindly, like a sincere carer, caring about the soldiers' food, clothing and shelter.

　　 Martin's actions against the people are not to mention those soldiers, even Leo and Jason, who are bystanders, can't help but have goodwill towards Martin at this moment, I feel this guy is not bad.

　　 This strange feeling against their thoughts did not dissipate until a group of three people walked into the elevator and the elevator went up a certain distance.
