After coming out of the Holy Blood Society's station, Leo did not leave immediately. Instead, he walked around in the underground city controlled by the Holy Blood Society.

Although this is a place controlled by the Holy Blood Society, and more than half of the people who live and do business here are dependents from Vinaya or from other places, the vast majority of these dependents have not undergone major physical changes. Even if there are

They are also hidden in places covered by clothes. On the surface, they are no different from ordinary people.

Only a small part of the body has undergone great mutation, and has long since broken away from the category of human form. It can no longer survive outside and can only live in this underground world. For this kind of completely mutated Familia, the Holy Blood Society has not left them alone.

, but made some appropriate arrangements for them according to their abilities, such as providing money to provide land, helping these people open shops underground, etc.

The antique shop that Leo is now in is a shop opened by an elderly family member whose body has completely mutated. This family member's body has obvious signs of insectization. Not only the limbs have begun to show the characteristics of arthropods, but also

The eyes have also become compound eyes, which makes people feel a sense of inexplicable fear.

However, his mutated body also brought him extraordinary abilities. The old man was a famous appraiser in the Kingdom of Sigmar when he was an ordinary person, and his mutated eyes gave him the ability to identify jewelry, minerals, antiques and other items.

Strengthening with each passing day.

However, this ability did not bring him any good luck. He had to hide because of his physical mutation. Later, he was caught by the gang and locked up, specializing in identifying various valuables for the gang. Until two years ago, the Holy Blood Society took action.

After wiping out this gangster who specialized in family members trading and rescuing the old man, he regained stability.

When he was a gangster, in order to prevent the old man from escaping, the gang leader cut off the old man's feet and locked him in a dark basement. After being rescued by the Holy Blood Society, he joined the Holy Blood Society.

The Blood Society specializes in identifying various mysterious items for the Holy Blood Society, and the Holy Blood Society also makes a very exquisite pair of prosthetics for the elderly and opens an antique shop.

This shop was specifically recommended by Brown when Leo left the Holy Blood Society. According to him, there were many mysterious items that could not be identified.

Leo didn't pay attention at first. In his opinion, the Holy Blood would have crows, mysterious psychic creatures originating from high towers, sitting there. Even if there were good mysterious items, the crows would find them and leave them for the Holy Blood's own people.

, where will it be displayed and sold to other people?

What really attracts Leo to visit this store is the crystal wall specially built for this store by the Holy Blood Society. It is said that this crystal wall is set up on the outer wall, just facing the outlet of Vinaya Port, and every day

Being able to see the endless seascape and the sight of thousands of ships swimming on the sea, almost everyone who comes to the underground city will go here for a walk, even if they don't buy anything, to see this scene that represents the prosperity of Vinaya Port.

very nice.

However, after arriving at this antique store, Leo realized that he seemed to be underestimating this store, because after entering the store, the waves of chaotic psychic energy fluctuations that greeted him were like a touchstone, destroying any attempt.

People entering the store are screened.

Leo didn't need to think too much about the Turing Magic Arrays he could easily see through his spiritual vision, and judged that the layout in this store must be the handiwork of Crow. The Turing Magic Arrays all over the store stored each piece in the store.

The mysterious objects in the object grid are connected together, guiding the spiritual energy fluctuations of the mysterious objects themselves, and forming a spiritual energy wall at the entrance of the antique shop.

This psychic wall can help the shop owner identify people. Generally, ordinary people will not have any problems passing through this psychic wall, just like passing through the air without being affected, and those bodies have a little bit of psychic energy.

No matter what kind of psychic power people have, they will experience more or less discomfort, and the stronger the psychic power they possess, the stronger the discomfort will be.

When Leo walked past this psychic wall, he felt as if his whole body had sunk into thick, heavy oil and died. At the same time, he felt pressure coming from all directions, and even felt a sense of suffocation.

The psychic energy in Leo's body naturally produces a stress response under this pressure, and there is almost no need for Leo to drive it. The psychic energy fluctuations close to the fifth-level psyker emanate from his body like electric waves, resisting the surrounding.

Psionic wall. This psychic confrontation was also transmitted along the Turing Magic Array to the storage compartments on the wall where mysterious items were stored, causing the storage compartments to vibrate violently.

The vibration of the storage compartment naturally alarmed the owner and customers in the store. They thought it was an earthquake, and they all lay on the ground or leaned against the wall, looking around in fear.

Fortunately, the psychic wall created by Turing's magic circle did not last long and disappeared automatically. After losing the external force, the psychic energy in Leo's body naturally calmed down, and the surroundings returned to calm.

Seeing the abnormal situation, the customers calmed down. The customers in the store did not understand what was going on. They just breathed a sigh of relief, straightened out their somewhat messy appearance, and then pretended that nothing happened just now, and continued talking to the store.

The people inside were talking about the unfinished deal just now.

As the owner of the store recovered from the initial panic, he quickly discovered that something was wrong, because other tables, chairs and other items in the store showed no signs of being hit by the earthquake. Only the storage compartments where the mysterious items were stored shook.

This also made him understand what was going on, and he immediately looked towards the entrance of the store.

The shop owner's mutated compound eyes have many abilities, many of which are very similar to Leo's psychic vision skills, and he can also see psychic fluctuations. This is one of the reasons why he can become the top connoisseur in the Velen world today.

one.

At this moment, in the eyes of the shop owner, Leo is like a torch formed by spiritual energy. It is not appropriate to call it a torch. It should be bigger than a torch, just like the molten steel in the furnace of a steel factory. It is dignified and hot.

People have the illusion that they will be burned if they get even slightly close.

The shop owner immediately stood up from his chair, walked to Leo, and saluted, "Welcome to our store. I wonder what this gentleman wants to buy."

Leo did not answer immediately, but looked at the shop owner's prosthetic leg very impolitely. Although he had long known that the mechanical craftsmanship in this world had reached a very high level, after seeing the beautifully crafted mechanical prosthetic leg in front of him,

, I still couldn’t help but admire the sophistication of this prosthetic limb, and I couldn’t help but compare the mechanical craftsmanship in the town of Silver Moon Lake in the dream world with the craftsmanship in front of me.

Although due to environmental reasons, the kinetic energy generated by the mechanical parts in Hushang Town is extremely large when running. A steam engine half a person's height can drive objects that are more than ten times or even hundreds of times larger than it. However, apart from the huge kinetic energy caused by the environment,

Differences aside, purely in terms of the sophistication of mechanical technology, the mechanical technology of Vinyl World is indeed slightly better than that of Hushang Town.

Inside the prosthetic limb wrapped in transparent resin, you can clearly see a large number of mechanical gears rotating, and while rotating, the artificial nerve lines in the resin will be triggered, and then transmitted to the user through some special shrapnel at the connection between the prosthetic limb and the residual limb.

, will bring some neurological vibrations and tactile sensations to the user, just like real limbs.

Although biochemical limbs and even cloned limbs have already existed in the Earth Federation, through the operation of mechanical gears and some special metal wires, a prosthetic limb that can produce nerve touch has been created, which makes Leo can't help but

He marveled at this kind of mechanical craftsmanship, and this kind of mechanical manufacturing craftsmanship also reminded him of Old Rembrandt's wheelchair and the people in the tavern in Miria City who were equipped with mechanical limbs.

"Do you need me to take it off for you to take a look at?" It seemed that this was not the first time the shop owner had encountered someone like Leo. He was not angry because of such an excessive move, but instead asked Leo.

"No need!" Leo shook his head, and then said casually: "I have seen similar prosthetic limb manufacturing techniques in Miria City, but your pair of prosthetic limbs is more exquisite than what I have seen."

"Oh! I know who you are talking about. My prosthetic limb should be made by the same person, and only that gentleman has the ability to make such a perfect prosthetic limb." The shop owner blinked his compound eyes and said nothing.

Not shying away from his mutilated body, he said with a smile: "Originally, the gentleman was planning to install a small steam power system on these prosthetic limbs, saying that it would give the prosthetic limbs strong strength. But I guess I'm not a combatant.

There was no need to add steam power to the prosthesis, so I rejected it."

Leo also praised the old man's open-mindedness. After that, he did not mention the old man's prosthetic limbs again, but turned to the store's products and said: "I was introduced by Brown. He told me that you have some interesting things here."

thing."

"Mr. Brown introduced it, I understand." The store owner nodded, gave instructions to the people in the store, and then led Leo to a small independent room next to the store. After asking Leo to sit down,

Asked: "Is there anything interesting you would like?"

Leo thought for a while and said, "Do you have anything related to the outer gods here?"

"Anything related to the Outer Gods?" The shop owner was silent for a moment, seeming a little worried. After a while, he said seriously: "I do have a few things here related to the Outer Gods, but those things are very special.

Evil and terrifying, anyone who comes into contact with them will be affected. In the team of treasure hunters who came here with these things, only one person could barely remain normal. The others went crazy, and their bodies had abnormal mutations. It was not

The mutation of the bloodline of the family members is another kind of mutation."

As he spoke, he paused for a moment, as if to calm down, and then continued: "Although I believe Mr. Brown will introduce you to me, which must be affirmative of your strength, these items are really too dangerous.

, it may be beyond your ability, please see if you..."

"Don't worry, even if something happens, you don't need to be responsible." Leo raised his hand to interrupt the shop owner's persuasion, and then said with a slight doubt: "I don't understand, since this thing is so dangerous, why not

Find a safer place to store it? If it is lost in this store, wouldn't it cause a bigger disaster?"

The shop owner said with great confidence: "Don't worry about this. In the entire underground city, except for the residence of the Holy Blood Society, my shop is the safest. If someone can snatch those few things from my shop,

Then they will still be snatched away even if they are placed elsewhere."

After saying that, he did not persuade Leo anymore, but motioned Leo to wait in the room for a while, while he walked to a certain wall in the room, raised his hand and quickly touched some parts of the wall.

Immediately afterwards, a slight sound of mechanical operation was heard from inside the wall, and then the wall slowly cracked, revealing a set of adjusting gears engraved with numbers. Then, the adjusting gears were turned like a cipher box, turning them

Adjust to the appropriate position, and then press the lever next to the gear set.

As the sound of gears turning came from the wall, a sealed box under the gear set slowly opened, and then a pallet holding a small box stretched out.

The shop owner picked up the small box and put it aside, and then followed the same method and took out two identical boxes from the storage rooms built in the wall.

After taking out the items, the shop owner pressed another button on the wall, causing the machine that retrieved the collected items to slowly retreat into the wall.

Looking at the actions of the shop owner, Leo couldn't help but want to laugh. He thought that the shop owner's actions of pressing different parts on the wall were not triggering any mechanism, but were completely a set of disguised actions. His actions should be through some kind of monitoring ability.

Passed to the controller of the real storage room machinery, which then controls them to take the items out.

If someone really believes in this set of actions and does it exactly as it is, not to mention whether it can activate the mechanisms in the storage room, even if it does, it will probably be some mechanism weapons that pose a fatal threat to the people in this house.

Leo made no move to expose the shop owner. His attention had been attracted by the three boxes, because the three wooden boxes did not have any wizard magic circle or anything like that on the surface. They were just exquisite boxes made of wood.

It's just that the wood used in the box is very special, so special that the moment Leo's spiritual network touched it, it was absorbed by the box.

When the shop owner put the box on the table, Leo immediately reached out and touched the box. He discovered that in addition to the previous mental network, the spiritual energy in his body, the pressure of his palms, and other forces would immediately trigger the box as long as it touched it.

disappear.

Leo looked at the shop owner's arthropod-like hands again. It was obvious that the hard shell that replaced the skin on the outside was not just to increase defense. I'm afraid it also had other abilities. Perhaps it was precisely because of these abilities that this man became so powerful.
