Chapter 1259 Looking for clues
In this world, war can be said to be a common thing. From ancient times to the present, war has never ended. The history of the entire world is basically a huge history of war.
Just when Leo read the information about this world, at least more than 300 wars were happening in the whole world, more than half of which were major wars between countries, and most of these wars were concentrated on the mainland.
This is mainly because almost all countries in the Old Continent have feuds, and hatred has lasted for thousands of years. Unless one side completely perishes, there is no possibility of easing. The countries in the New Continent are established by those who are willing to give up all their past hatred. Although various kinds of hatreds will inevitably arise during the establishment of a country, compared with the feuds of the Old Continent, the hatred between countries and countries between people in the New Continent is much less and lighter. Even if a war breaks out, it will not be particularly serious.
But whether it is the Old World or the New World, there are only a handful of wars between religions, and there are less than ten times in total, because the world has enough land and enough population to allow various churches to have sufficient development environments. Therefore, even if there is a conflict between them, they will not escalate the conflict into a war. Most of them will resolve the problem through negotiation or other abnormal means.
But even so, several wars broke out between various religions, and the number of churches participated in each war was not less than thirty. As for the reason for the war, it was very strange, because no document recorded the reasons related to it. It seemed that these churches suddenly wanted to have a war one day, and then agreed on a time for dozens of churches to send their church armed forces to fight at the same time. After a period of fighting, they felt that the war was enough. Almost all of them stopped at the same time and returned to their original state. Almost all the wars related to religion highlighted an inexplicable situation.
Just like the religious wars that broke out in the Old Continent, the religious wars in the New Continent broke out very suddenly. More than thirty churches mobilized their church believers to form church armed forces without any warning, and then launched wars against other churches in the seven New Continent countries.
The war broke out suddenly and the process was extremely chaotic. Almost all churches participating in the war seemed to be hostile churches. They attacked and massacred any pagans they saw, and had no room for negotiation or reconciliation. The governments of the seven countries lost control of the entire country at the moment of the outbreak of the religious war, and eventually the entire area fell into anarchy.
This anarchy did not ease until half a month later when the religious war stopped. At that time, some remaining government organizations united and began to clean up the mess, re-established a new coalition government, formed a government army, and began to chaotic towns around them. In the end, a few years later, they completely controlled all the lands of the previous seven countries and formed a new country, which was the Ute Federation.
It is precisely because of the dangers of religious war that the Otter Federation maintained extremely strict monitoring of all churches in its country after its establishment. Especially the thirty or so churches that launched the religious war were regarded as cults by the Otter Federation and were banned.
Moreover, the Ott Federation has been investigating why these religions suddenly launched an indiscriminate religious war like a group of madmen.
Although no results were found in the end, the investigation organization of the Auth Federation still inferred from some clues that whether it was the religious war in the New World or the religious war in the Old World, the reason for its outbreak may be related to something unknown. Some people speculate that this thing may be a magical tool, but this statement has not been recognized by others.
The first person to discover that the abnormality of the Uttar Federation was not Leo, but Sylvia. She served in the Orthodox Church, so she knew a lot about the secrets between the various churches. She knew better what could make those churches fall into madness in collective order. That was why she thought that the rumor that the reason for the religious war in the rumors was a magical tool might be true, and she also believed that the Uttar Federation must also contain some things that could be valued by the church, which led to the idea that the two decided to go to the Uttar Federation.
It's just that it's not easy to travel from the Mountain Kingdom where they are.
This country is not connected to the Ott Federation. There are only a straight line distance, and there are more than a dozen countries in the middle. Because most of them are mountainous and forest terrain, the road often needs to be detoured, and finally reaching the Ott Federation may require more than twenty countries to be able to do so.
Fortunately, in the years since its establishment, the Utd Federation has actively invested in the construction of an international highway connecting more than 100 countries in order to better trade with other countries. By following this international highway, it can reach various countries connected to the highway faster than other places, and its safety is far better than taking other roads.
Although the Kingdom of Shanzhong is not one of the countries connected by international highways, you only need to travel a few times across a few rivers across the New World and cross five countries to reach the closest country connected to the international highway.
In this way, Leo and Sylvia spent several months, through transitioning back and forth between several rivers, crossing five countries, coming to the country connected to the international highway, and then taking the latest international railway, which finally took nearly seven months to arrive at the Federation of Ott.
Some things happened on the way to the Otter Federation, but these things did not have any impact on the formation of the two. Instead, they provided them with some useful things, such as the status of the old continental aristocrats who were replaced by the two.
Although the countries in the New World say that they do not recognize the aristocratic status of the mainland countries and that all those who come to the New World are ordinary people, in fact, they still have some special care for the aristocrats of the Old World. For example, when the identity is handled in the Ute Federation, there are fewer procedures and much easier review. They still retain the title of aristocratic, and they will not be uniformly classified as federal citizens like other ordinary immigrants, which also gives them certain privileges.
After arriving at the Federation of Orte, the two began to walk around the cities of the Federation of Orte, one to be familiar with the environment and language, the other to find clues related to this world and extraordinary power, and finally to choose a suitable place for Sylvia to be promoted.
After almost half a year, the two of them traveled almost half of the Utter Federation and finally discovered a place with abnormal energy in Belluk City. This was the first time they found that there was still very active abnormal energy fluctuations in a place after coming to this world.
Previously, they also discovered many places where abnormal energy exists, but these abnormal energy are either very weak or like stagnant water. As for the church in this world, it is the node of all the chaotic forces in this world. As long as the two of them get close to it, they feel several times the discomfort that is several times that of other places.
Before the real estate agent looking for this land to see the manor, the two also learned something about the manor from other local people, but the locals were unwilling to mention too much about the manor, so the content was also very vague. The two knew that a missing case occurred here more than ten years ago, and neither of them knew the details of the missing case.
Now I saw a city police detective who came to investigate the case more than ten years ago, which aroused the interest of Leo and Sylvia. At the same time, he also found that the female detective had special energy fluctuations, especially the single-piece eyes worn on her eyes should be a strange thing, so Leo agreed to Soland as half of the owner to enter the house for investigation.
This is a good start for Leo and Sylvia. It took almost a year to find a manor with abnormal energy fluctuations. Now I have seen a person with special power that I had never seen before. This may mean that the mysterious side of this world has already broken a hole in front of the two, giving them a chance to get a glimpse of the truth.
Seeing that Leo had agreed to take out the reservation fee, he stopped talking about anything. For him, he could make a fortune regardless of whether the manor was sold or not.
After using her key to open the door, the group entered the house. Soland stopped at the door and looked around. On the surface, she seemed to be checking the situation in the room and looking for clues. In fact, she had stimulated the power contained in the monocle and used this power to find some supernatural phenomena.
Before graduating from Pickett, Solander had interned in a small town in the federal government for two months. During that two months, she investigated a case. In that case, she discovered for the first time that the world was hiding another mysterious world and witnessed some things in the mysterious world. She also awakened some power and obtained several items containing mysterious power.
Now, through the special item of monocle glasses, she was able to easily see some things that ordinary people could not see without relying on her power at that time, such as a gray fog that ordinary people could not see with their naked eyes in the villa. From time to time, some monster faces that looked very ferocious appeared in these gray fogs.
I don’t know if it was because the method of using monocle glasses was wrong or because of the influence of the gray fog. Soland became addicted to it after seeing the gray fog, as if he wanted to find something in the gray fog, and he didn’t realize that he was slowly falling into a state of loss of mind. From outsiders, she seemed to be sleepwalking.
Just when Soland was inexplicably immersed in observing the gray fog and his whole mind was a little uncontrollable, someone patted her on the shoulder beside her and said, "Mr. Inspector, have you found anything?"
The slap came very timely, and it seemed that there was some unknown power in the slap. It instantly made Solander wake up, and closed the mysterious power in the single piece of eyes in time, freeing himself from the adverse effects of the gray fog.
After the scene in front of him returned to normal, Soland also felt that he was out of danger and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Then he looked gratefully at Sylvia who had just slapped her.
"Did you find something just now?" Sylvia was very kind and asked, "Can you tell us? After all, we have already planned to buy this manor. Learning more about this manor will also benefit us."
Soland hesitated for a moment, and suggested with a very sincere expression: "If possible, I think it's better for you to not buy this villa, because it's too dangerous here."
This suggestion made the real estate agent roll his eyes and almost scolded him for ruining his good business.
Sylvia smiled and said, "We have already said that we have planned to buy this manor and will not change it anymore, so you don't have to persuade us anymore. Let's tell us about the things related to this villa! We will also be mentally prepared."
Seeing Sylvia say this, Soland did not persuade him anymore, and did not intend to say more. He just walked towards the basement full of bones in the case record in silence.
The group soon arrived at the basement, and Solander lit up several gas lights hanging in the basement.
Because some customers need to see the house, the house broker had already asked the gas company to reopen the gas pipeline in the manor before coming.
After some adjustments to the gas lamp, the brightness was quickly adjusted to the maximum, and it was easy for a few people to see clearly the situation in the basement.
This basement is very large, almost two-thirds of the size of the villa. However, although the area is large, it is very empty inside, without any debris, and the ground has been dug, but the excavated parts have been filled. There should have been some stone slabs on the surrounding walls, but now all have been dug up. Only some stone slabs at the bottom that ordinary people seem useless are still retained.
This time, Soland seemed to have learned to be smart. She did not activate the power in the monocle, but searched the empty basement just based on her own perception and intuition. What made her regretful that she did not find any useful clues.
At this time, she was a little anxious and wanted to stimulate the power of monocles to see if she could find something like in the house above.
Just as Soland was about to inspire his eyes, Sylvia suddenly spoke, "This basement is really empty. What was the purpose of the previous owner building such a basement? And where did the original decorations here go? If the basement can be restored, maybe something could be discovered."
