Chapter 698: Library Members
Although Leo still has a lot of more well-made and powerful rune traps on hand, in view of the current situation, Leo feels that these rune traps need to be placed on his body in case of emergency, so he does not sell them to Kajie.
However, Leo did not completely refuse Kajie's request to buy it, and he said that some of the mechanical traps he had modified were taken out and sold.
Kajie was a little disappointed that she wasn't able to buy the rune trap she wanted, but it was nice for her to be able to get the mechanical trap.
She knew that the mechanical traps that passed through Leo's hands were more powerful than ordinary mechanical traps, just because those rune traps had runes on them, and it was not easy to disassemble them, so let's see what kind of structure they were inside.
Leo could naturally see Kajie's careful thoughts, but he didn't care, in his opinion, as people gradually adapt to the mutations in the world, mechanical changes will also be discovered, and then gradually find out the rules, so even if the black market discovers the combination of the mechanical traps, there is no big problem, it is better to sell it while the price is still high.
After trading things, Kajie took Leo and the others to the train station in the center of the city.
The county rail car in Yasha County still uses the track used by the steam train before, but the track was cut off by about 50 meters after entering the city to prevent the steam train from forcing its way into Yasha County, and then a railway station was rebuilt on that section of the track in the city.
Because the railway station has just started, it is still very simple, there is only one platform, and a simple but high wooden wall is surrounded by a simple circle, and some gendarmes are guarding the edge of the wall, and only with a ticket can enter the platform, so it is not difficult to see that the rail car should be controlled by the military, that is, the werewolves.
When the crowd entered the platform with their tickets, they saw the rail car, which was said to have no steam engine.
Everyone was a little surprised when they saw the front of the rail car, because it was much smaller than the head of the steam train, about half the size of the steam locomotive, and the shape looked a little strange in the eyes of everyone, like an arrow.
As introduced by the same Kajie, the front of this rail car does not have water tanks, cylinders and other things that must be seen on steam trains, and the surface of this locomotive is all inlaid with steel plates, and only a little back has a lookout for the train driver to provide the outside world.
Standing there, the driver can easily see everything in front of him, which is much better than the steam train driver who has to stretch out the train for a long distance to see the situation ahead, which can at least reduce the accident of the train driver.
Everyone who entered the platform did not rush to board the carriage behind them, but curiously gathered in front of this strange locomotive, and there was a lot of discussion, most of them were doubting whether such a small locomotive could drive the train, and some people were curious about the strange shape of this locomotive.
Compared with the people around him, Leo felt a little surprised and confused when he saw this locomotive, because such an arrow-shaped locomotive has too many space machine styling styles, which are completely different from the current Vilen world's pursuit of rough ore and huge mechanical shapes.
With curiosity, when Leo took Robert and Sherf to see the locomotive, he wanted to use the spiritual network to perceive the mysteries, but the interfering power transmitted from the locomotive said that the spiritual network was blocked out.
"I'm afraid there are no less than ten jammers. After Leo sensed that there were at least ten frequencies of the interference waves at the locomotive, he also guessed the number of jammers placed in the locomotive.
Although Leo's powerful spiritual network forcibly broke through the interference energy and penetrated into the inside of the locomotive, it would definitely cause a lot of movement, so he did not use the spiritual network to explore the secrets of the locomotive, but changed his method.
I saw that he walked to the locomotive and reached out to touch the locomotive, in the eyes of others, he was no different from those curious passengers, but when he stroked the locomotive, the seemingly stroking action was actually a hard slap.
The shock waves formed by the slapping of the steel plate spread rapidly inside the locomotive, and the feedback generated by these shock waves after hitting the object was captured by Leo's extraordinary hearing, and he was like a bat, quickly grasping the main structure inside the locomotive through the echo.
Although the specific structure of the locomotive cannot be explored in this way, the general structure is enough for Leo to determine the operating principle of the locomotive.
Leo discovers that there are many structures inside the train, some of which resemble the mechanics of Lake Town, but more of them resemble the mechanics of the Old Earth era.
Judging from the current situation, the werewolf may have obtained the remains of some space battleship, and obtained some knowledge of the remains, so as to apply it to this.
Leo was not too surprised by the current situation, along the way, he had learned that there were a large number of cosmic remains in this world, and these remains were gradually discovered and studied by various countries and forces, so it was not strange to be able to see this kind of super-era product.
After a little guessing, Leo also lost interest in how the locomotive worked, and according to the number on the ticket, he boarded the corresponding carriage.
The tickets prepared by Kajie for Leo are the best tickets, but the best tickets for this train are only private berth tickets, and there are no separate compartments.
When Leo came to his carriage, there was already a man sitting inside.
This is a red-haired woman, not too beautiful, with a pair of delicate glasses, a black maris kingdom national cadet bachelor's uniform neatly worn on a straight body, looking very intellectually beautiful.
"Library?" Leo quickly swept his gaze over the woman, and finally his gaze focused on a hidden embroidery pattern on the woman's cuffs, and a dark world organization quickly appeared in his mind.
The library that Leo is referring to here is not really a library, but the name of an organization in the dark world, whose founder is the Persona Society, and her purpose is mainly to preserve all kinds of books that record the knowledge of civilization in wars, disasters, and other situations.
I don't know if it's because of the founder's fetish, or because of other unknown reasons, the library has only recruited women since the day it was established, so they have a very good relationship with the witch group, and sometimes the members of the witch group will also work part-time as collectors of the library.
Although the founder of the library came out of the Persona Society, the relationship between the library and the Persona Society was not good, and Sylvia hesitated for a long time because of whether to join the library or join the Persona Society, and finally felt that the Persona Society had a deeper foundation and more resources.
In the dark world, the strength of the library is definitely the lowest existence, and most of its members have no combat ability, they are all the most ordinary scholars, if it weren't for the witch group behind them, the library would have disappeared long ago.
The woman in front of her was obviously also a very ordinary member of the library, and there was not a trace of energy fluctuations on her body. However, it would be too arbitrary to judge that this woman has no combat power just from whether there are energy fluctuations or not.
Judging by the bulge around the waist of the woman's clothes, it was clear that she had more than one weapon with her, and her slightly tense muscles when Leo came in also showed that she was not a weak woman.
Although the members of the library are often considered ordinary scholars with no combat power, the ordinary here is compared to the endless monsters of the dark world, and in the face of real ordinary people, each of them women is the most elite warrior.
At the same time that Leo was looking at this woman, this woman was also looking at Leo a lot, but she obviously couldn't see anything special about Leo, and the only place that could make her pay a little attention was a book in her hand that she was going to read on the road, and it was not difficult to see with her eyes that this book was an ancient book that was some years old.
Being able to become a member of the library means that this person's love for books is far beyond ordinary people, and when she sees an ancient book that she has never seen, she will naturally become interested, and at the same time she is thinking about how to see the content of this book.
Leo sat down on the bunk opposite, hung his luggage on the hook of the luggage rack, and then took the book and read it carefully.
Seeing that Leo didn't have the idea of communicating with people, the woman didn't know how to talk to him, so she could only sit across from her and continue to look at the book in her hand.
The silence in the carriage was not broken until Robert and Sherf walked in.
I saw them arguing about how many carriages the locomotive of this train could drag and what the power was, while pushing open the carriage door and walking in, and after entering, they couldn't help but be stunned when they saw a woman in the carriage.
However, soon they also spotted the marks on the woman's cuffs, looked at each other, did not say anything, and each put his luggage on the top bunk and lay down on it, doing his own thing.
However, compared to Robert and Sherf's calmness after knowing that this woman was a member of the library, the woman stared at Sherf with a shocked expression, and did not withdraw her gaze until Sherf lay on the bed above her, but the shocked and panicked look on her face still did not withdraw.
There was no doubt that she obviously recognized Sherf's identity, but she didn't know Sherf's other identity, and apparently all she could think of now was the cruel methods that Sherf used in every battle.
I don't know if it's because of fear or the sudden impact that makes her confused, but the best countermeasure she can think of at the moment is to strike first, so she instinctively put her hand on her waist and unbuttoned her bachelor's gown, revealing a delicate pistol, which looks like it should be a pistol with special bullets.
"If I were you, I wouldn't do that, Miss Library. At that moment, the fat man Robert suddenly opened his mouth to warn the woman, "Because when you took the gun, his knife had already cut you in half." ”
The woman was startled when she heard the words of the fat man, and only then did she recall the scene when she had just entered the door, and she was also annoyed that she had neglected Scherf's companion.
Although she was reluctant, she heeded Fat Robert's warning and removed her hand from the pistol, and the moment she moved away, she also heard a very small sound of metal rubbing.
"Miss Library, I would like to ask, does this companion of mine have a grudge against you, and why do you want to kill him as soon as you see him?" The fat man Robert sat cross-legged on the bed, and asked the woman opposite, and then teased: "Or is it that this friend of mine has reached the point of being hated by everyone, and just seeing him is enough to make people regard him as a mortal enemy." ”
"Fatty, you're talking too much nonsense!" Sherf glared at Robert in exasperation.
"Apostate Sherf," the woman felt that if something really happened, she would definitely not survive, so she also let it go, and directly singled out: "If I don't do it, he will kill me, so ......"
The fat man Robert interrupted the other party's words and said puzzledly: "Wait! I understand the apostate Sherf, but why did he kill you?"
The woman was stunned for a moment, and said: "Aren't all those rumors that the apostate Sherf will kill people according to his mood? There is a book written by the previous generation of administrators in the library, which records some of the most dangerous characters in the dark world, and the apostate Sherf is the most dangerous of all the characters, and it is suggested in the book that as long as I see him, I must do everything possible to kill him, otherwise if he does it first, then I will die." ”
Listening to the woman's words, the fat man Robert and Sherf were stunned, but soon Robert laughed out loud and said to Sherf: "What the hell did you do to make the administrator of the library hate you so much, he even wrote you into a book, and suggested that the library members do everything they can to kill you," he stopped, and said to Sherf with a little obscenity, "You should not ......"
"Shut up. Sherf stared coldly at the fat man Robert, the long knife in his hand had been partially drawn, and it seemed that as long as Robert said another word, it would be a knife.
Although Fat Robert didn't think that Sherf could hurt himself, after all, Leo was still in his lower bunk, but he didn't intend to offend Sherf, so he closed his mouth very cooperatively.
At this time, the woman also heard some clues, although she was a nerd who had not experienced anything, but it did not mean that she was stupid, such obvious sarcastic words of Fat Robert made her realize that she might have been tricked by her colleagues in the library, and the look on her face was immediately extremely annoyed, and she felt a trace of resentment towards the person who had made her misunderstood, because whether what was written in that book was true or not, she would eventually encounter an unwarranted disaster because of this incident, and even her life was in danger.
