When he was in the Kingdom of Inge, Leo was already sure that the Kingdom of Inge had mastered some of the technological tools from the cosmic civilization, and they had been able to transform an underground wreckage into a national bank, and they would definitely be able to find a large number of technological tools from these wreckage.

What's more, after the Kingdom of England became the overlord of the sea, a large number of relics of prehistoric civilizations were looted from countries around the world on the grounds of archaeology and other academic reasons, until the countries found anomalies and began to stipulate the cessation of such relics trade, more than half of the world's known prehistoric civilization relics have been looted by the Kingdom of England, and there must be some scientific and technological items of cosmic civilization that can still be used.

However, judging from the fact that the Kingdom of England did not even fully understand the wreckage of the spaceship transformed into a national bank, the Kingdom of England may have very limited technology in the universe, and may even have inadvertently triggered some high-tech items for some reason, and understood how to use these high-tech items, but did not really master these technologies.

However, for the world of steam technology, the technological tools of the cosmic civilization are like artifacts, and they are also artifacts that do not require permission from the gods and can be used at any time, so the working principle of these technological tools is not the most important thing.

In order to verify his speculation, Leo went to Port Randall again, found Sean Donald, and came to Sean under the pretext of discussing the protection of the ritual, and then in the course of the conversation, he only observed with his eyes to find the possible cosmic civilization technology items on the other party.

The reason why Leo did not directly use the spirit network for search and detection is mainly because some technological items in the universe will have a trigger reaction to the spirit network, and if Sean wears such an item, it will inevitably cause some unnecessary abnormal movements.

Although it is impossible to search carefully inside and outside like the spirit network, Leo found at least four cosmic civilization items on Sean's body that have undergone some cosmic transformation based on the naked eye.

These four items have both an energy protection belt for defense, and a death light launcher for offense, in terms of defense and attack power alone, Sean Donald's overall combat effectiveness at the moment is not much worse than a fourth-level psyker, of course, this premise is that this psyker does not know how to attack spiritually, after all, the scientific and technological items on Sean's body focus on physical and energy defense, and the defense against mysterious spiritual attacks is almost zero.

Leo felt that Sean should have taken this weakness into account, so he must be wearing a Poseidon Church holy weapon that could be lower than a spiritual attack, which was proved by the Poseidon divine power that escaped from his body from time to time.

And Sean, who has achieved such offensive and defensive means, is still not confident in the safety of the sacrificial ceremony, and even does not hesitate to take out a technological item of cosmic civilization as a trading item, which shows how uneasy Sean's heart has reached.

This also made Leo suspect that Sean should know what would happen after the sacrifice ceremony, which is why he felt such a panic.

When Leo collected the collection of Poseidon Church before, he also saw the relevant information written by the clergy who participated in the ceremony in the Poseidon Church, and in those materials, the things before the ceremony were recorded very well and the content was very detailed, and even Leo reconstructed the entire sacrificial ritual from these records It was not difficult, but after the ceremony was completed, they entered the Poseidon Temple along with the selected winners, and the records related to it became extremely chaotic, and the words were messy, as if a madman was recording in his own language, even Leo could not decipher these contents。

It can be seen that after these high-ranking clergy of the Poseidon Church who participated in the ceremony entered the Poseidon Temple, they were immediately disturbed by some kind of force that disturbed their minds, leaving their spirits in an unpredictable state of disorder, as if these clergy were like madmen.

And any high-ranking priest who participates in the ceremony must have been blessed by the god of the sea, and has the ability to use at least one god divine art, that is to say, their souls have the protection of the god of the sea, and it stands to reason that they will not be affected to the extent of this madness, and this influence will also end when they leave the temple of the god of the sea and return to the world of Velon, and will not cause any damage to their body and spirit, think about the existence that can do this, except for the god of the sea god that the Poseidon Church believes, I am afraid that no other god can do it。

Leo is not very clear about why Poseidon wants to confuse the memories of his clergy and hide everything from the Poseidon Temple, but Leo can be sure that the Poseidon Church in the Kingdom of Inge should have real information about the Poseidon Temple that Landauer does not have, and may even know what is stored in the Poseidon Temple, so he will send Sean to participate in the sacrifice ceremony and take the opportunity to find something they want in the Poseidon Temple.

If this is the case, then the Kingdom of Inge should also know very well what dangers will be encountered in the Poseidon Temple, and Sean, who has read the relevant information, will still not feel safe despite all kinds of protection, so he will seek Leo's help.

After discovering this, Leo changed his attitude towards participating in the sacrifice ceremony a little, and after hastily ending the conversation with Sean, he returned to Castle Black and told Sylvia his reasoning.

"Are you really going to participate in this sacrifice ceremony?" Sylvia asked with a frown and a little concern.

"Hmm. Leo nodded and said, "Since an agreement has been reached with Sean, naturally I can't break the contract, and even if there is no Sean, I will participate in this ceremony, and observe the relationship between the Turing root circle in the lighthouse and the sacrificial ceremony up close, and see if I can crack it?"

Sylvia said calmly: "Actually, you don't need to do this at all, if you feel that the lighthouse is a bit dangerous to us, we can leave the black castle and go to live elsewhere." ”

Leo shook his head and said calmly, "I'm curious myself. ”

Hearing Leo say this, Sylvia didn't persuade anymore, although she could also use little Tolan as a reason to continue to persuade her, and it was certain that Leo would eventually agree to give up participating in the sacrifice ceremony, but she didn't do it, she didn't want herself and little Tolan to be a burden and a constraint to Leo, just as she didn't want Leo to be a burden to herself, which is the main reason why she still hasn't mentioned having an official wedding with Leo and becoming a husband and wife in the legal sense.

Sensing that this sacrificial ritual would be unusual and dangerous, Leo stopped researching things in the next few days and began to prepare some useful things specifically for this operation, such as potions and rune traps.

At the same time, he gave Sylvia everything he didn't need, including the few energy weapons that he had used as hole cards but didn't use.

Sylvia was amazed to learn how to use those energy weapons, as she thought they were artifacts, and she thought it would be more appropriate for Leo to keep them to deal with the dangers he would encounter when participating in the sacrificial ceremony.

But Sylvia's suggestion was rejected by Leo as soon as it was proposed, because if it was in danger in the Poseidon Temple, then it must be related to the Poseidon, and although those few energy weapons were powerful, it was obviously not enough to deal with the malice of the gods.

In addition, the power of those energy weapons in the end is not necessarily stronger than Leo's psionic skills, and it is not worth mentioning in terms of flexibility, so when he encounters danger, he may be more effective in using psionic energy than using energy weapons.

And more importantly, there are some environments where energy weapons may not be able to work, or even not work, in which case energy weapons are not as good as a short knife.

In this way, the days passed, and soon the day of the sacrificial ceremony was ushered in, and the Poseidon Church had already arranged the altar of the sacrificial ceremony the day before, and the clergy were all in place, and these clergy were all people with rich experience in the sacrificial ceremony, because many of them had been to the Poseidon Temple during the sacrificial ceremony.

Sylvia, at Leo's suggestion, had emptied the Castle two days earlier, leaving only a few servants and guards to look after the closed Castle, and she herself took the two little ones and her men to the villa on the outskirts of Landauer, where they settled there for the time being, waiting for the ceremony to end.

Sylvia's actions obviously made Landall Poseidon Church feel a little surprised and puzzled, this is not the first time they have held a sacrifice ceremony, because of the opening of an exclusive passage, people who participate in the sacrifice ceremony can bypass the Black Castle and enter the altar directly from the passage to hold the ceremony, which will not have any impact on the Black Castle, so when the ceremony was held before, the Black Castle also operated as usual, and there was no emptying action.

Now Sylvia's act of emptying the Black Castle and moving to the villa by herself seemed to hint at what would happen to their sacrifice ceremony, which made many people feel very unpleasant and offended.

However, fortunately, these clergy of the Poseidon Church were not stupid enough to go to the villa to question Sylvia's intentions, of course, this is also because although Sylvia went to the villa, Leo stayed, and lived in the lighthouse next to the altar before the ceremony.

On the altar, another bishopric of the Randall Church, who was presiding over the ceremony, was making a final check of what had been set up and who was involved, when Sean Donald went to the lighthouse and called Leo to attend the ceremony, and also tried to find out the reason for Sylvia's actions from Leo.

As a result, Sean naturally didn't get any useful information, just said a word of caution, and left the lighthouse, came to a special participant seat next to the altar, and sat among the people of the Poseidon Church in the Kingdom of England, and Sean also followed closely and sat down next to Leo.

At this time, the ceremony also officially began, and the clergy around the altar began to chant the hymn of the sea god, and the other clergy around the altar walked in a circle around the altar, blowing the conch in their hands as they walked, and the nautical lantern in their hands was also shaking with some regularity.

The bishop of the Poseidon Church, who was standing in front of the altar, recited the prayer in praise of the god of the sea at this time, and although his voice was not loud, he had a special power to transmit the recitation to everyone's ears.

While the people of Poseidon Church were completely immersed in the praise recited by the bishop and recited it together, Leo was very calm, and after checking that Sean, who was also caught in the resonance reaction, did not have any major problems, he began to manipulate the general recorder in his hand to collect subtle changes in the surrounding energy.

Soon Leo found that the surrounding third element factor is increasing at a very fast rate, the third element factor is a very special energy factor, and the appearance of this energy factor also represents the existence of an active space rift around, but under normal circumstances, the third element factor will only exist stably in the universe, and there will be no phenomenon such as a sudden surge of the third element factor in a certain place, and the current situation found by Leo obviously violates the existence theorem of this cosmic energy factor.

It's just that Leo didn't think too much about this matter, and instead focused on something more important, that is, the spatial rift that appeared on the altar.

Although Leo could not clearly see the appearance of the spatial rift due to the limitations caused by the environment here, the data collected on the Universal Recorder clearly pointed out the location of the spatial rift, and also judged that the state of the spatial rift was very unstable through the changing energy data.

At the same time, the monitoring device arranged by Leo at the top of the lighthouse also fed back to Leo the operation of the Turing root circle in the lighthouse, and through the two miniature wizarding objects pasted behind Leo's ears, he made him feel like he was standing next to a searchlight, watching the various Turing root circles hidden there operate.

The chaotic Turing root circle hidden in the deepest part also began to operate at this time, and the whole process was completely captured by Leo.

"I see!" After all, Leo has already studied this Turing root circle very deeply, and even cracked part of it, all that is missing is to discover the hidden laws after this circle is operating, so when he saw the process of the operation of the Turing root circle through the monitoring device, it was like a revelation, and soon connected the previously chaotic research data into a whole, forming a complete closed loop.

After understanding the core mystery of the Turing root, Leo began to observe the operation of the Turing root of the entire lighthouse, and let himself start to calculate what kind of follow-up changes would occur after the ritual continued.
