The rubble fell like rain, and when the electric light disappeared and his eyes recovered, Harold saw that Sanelson and other vampires behind him had disappeared without a trace, the entrance was covered with traces of destruction, and the entire hall was shaking, and it seemed that it would not be long before it collapsed.
"A small silver coin can do so much damage," one of the Knights of the Mechanical Order muttered to himself in shock and dazedness.
Harold suddenly came to his senses and scolded loudly: "That's because the great god of steam blessed by divine power is not only the god of machines, the master of life and death, but also the lord of thunder and punishment."
"Then why silver coins," the other member of the Knights of the Mechanical Order was also a little puzzled.
Harold was not a dwarf who was good at religion in the first place, and racked his brains and said, "That shows that the great god of steam is also the god of money."
He is the God of God, the King of kings, and naturally rules over many realms. ” Anyway, it's all about God's greatness At this time, the members of the Knights of the Mechanical Knights had no doubts, including Harold, all of them bowed their heads to their chests and prayed to the gate of time and space: "Steam supremacy."
Then several people walked into the space-time gate in pairs, and all of them left the underground hall in less than half an hour.
As soon as they left, the power that suppressed the shock of the space-time gate suddenly disappeared, the space shook violently, and a little starlight fell off from above, and gradually, the entire gate completely collapsed, and the underground palace completely collapsed.
After a few days, Sanelson's "father", a vampire duke, knew of his disappearance, so he relied on the "bloodline" to find him.
"Space node, there is a space node here" The vampire duke looked at the collapsed underground palace with a solemn face, no longer caring about Sanelson's condition, but turned around angrily, "No matter how Vlad recovers from sleep, he has to give an explanation for this matter" "On his territory, there is an unreported space node, what if the church sneaks in?"
After some more time, there was a loud bang in the direction of Vlad's Castle, and a sound of anger to the extreme was like rolling thunder: "I'm going to kill the bastard who trapped me" What made him even more angry was that he didn't even know who the other party was, what he had done, or what characteristics he had, and even if he found someone to use prophecy, he couldn't track it down.
Lighting the torch, Augustus saw an abandoned city in front of his eyes, with thick chimneys, metal pipes, bearings, pistons, springs and other things everywhere, showing an obvious style of steam civilization.
He seemed to understand something, and there were cloudy tears welling up from the corners of his eyes, and he said as if excited and as if mournful: "This is where our ancestors came, this is our home, our mother's embrace" As he spoke, he fell to his knees and kissed the cold earth overgrown with weeds: "We're back, we're finally back" Dwarves knelt down one by one, kissing the land of their ancestors and the roots of their blood, weeping bitterly and silently.
When Harold and other members of the Knights of the Mechanical Order came over and the gate of time and space disappeared, Augustus took a deep breath and said loudly to more than 20,000 dwarves: "Our destination is not here, we want to return to the earth, to the homeland of our ancestors, to the beginning of all footprints, to the beginning of everything."
There we will have a new life without slavery, without tragic death, without suffering from a new birth."
"Now, take up the torch and follow me forward, do not hesitate, do not fear, do not doubt, follow me firmly, this is the revelation of the god of steam."
Bunches of torches were erected, and the dwarves, under the guidance of their respective militia instructors, lined up in neat formations from families and villages, began to walk through the abandoned steam city, while the Mechanical Knights were divided into four parts, guarding the front and back, the left and right.
The city was huge, and beyond the torch illumination was endless darkness, only flakes of fluorescent moss reflected a green glow, but this not only did not reassure the dwarves, but made them even more frightened, as if there were countless monsters lurking in the darkness, and the green light was their hungry and bloodthirsty eyes.
In all directions, however, it was unusually quiet, with only the echo of neat steps, and the team seemed to be plunged into eternal tranquility, never going out, never finishing the road.
Just as the dwarves began to get flustered and their legs went limp, Augustus' voice rang out again: "Don't hesitate, don't be afraid, don't doubt, follow me firmly" "Yes," the dwarves replied in a somewhat ethereal voice.
Augustus raised his scepter: "The god of steam is with us" "He will walk with us, and no hardship, no danger, no affliction can overcome us" Hearing the name of the god of steam, the dwarves became emboldened, chanting the holy name in their hearts, and it seemed that with each call, with each prayer, the darkness and danger around them would reced, and gradually, their steps became brisk.
Bang bang steam rifle volley, one by one the monsters that pounced in the darkness were splashed with blood and flipped to the ground.
Yes, we have the power of steam and will defeat all enemies "The great god of steam, the master of life and death, the king of thunder, the lord of punishment, the god of money" "You are the god of the gods, the king of kings" The silent recitation of the holy names all blurted out, intertwined into a mixed sound, and then slowly unified, converging into a torrent of power, which made the darkness "subside", and made the monsters hiding in the shadows choose to retreat.
The huge team finally made its way out of the city, out of the tunnel, and in front of the cobweb-like cave.
"This is the final test, only a pious person can get through the labyrinth before him, do not hesitate, do not fear, do not doubt, follow me firmly" "Yes" This time, the dwarves were loud and confident.
The dwarves walked a little frightened, afraid of getting lost here, but the archbishop Augustus in front of him seemed to be wandering with his eyes closed, and there was no discernment at all.
"Believe in the great god of steam, believe in the archbishop who is guided by him, here not with eyes, nose and ears to discern the way, but with the heart" Such thoughts came to the minds of each dwarf, so that they were no longer confused, no longer confused, and firmly followed the archbishop through the darkness.
I don't know how long it took, but a slight light suddenly appeared in front of them, and in front of them was a dense and vast mountain forest.
"Out of the labyrinth" "This is the earth" Minna suddenly pointed to the sky and said, "Look there" The dark sky is white, and a bright star in the distance guides the morning light to hang in the sky, flickering and quiet, unchanged for eternity.
"This is the Morning Star" "Is the day coming?"
The dwarves who grew up on the plateau of the night had never seen daylight, and could only know the existence of the morning star from the mouths of Archbishop Augustus, the texts of their ancestors, and that it revealed the dawn of heaven.
"You are the master of life and death, and the shining morning star, connecting night and day, symbolizing a new life" Augustus was inspired to add a new name to the god of steam.
The morning star vanished, and the eastern sky lit up with an orange glow, bright and warm, shining on people's hearts, and then, a ball of fireball slowly rose.
This never-before-seen beauty deeply shocked the dwarves and made them truly feel "new life" I don't know how long it took, but Archbishop Augustus raised his arms and shouted: "Our new life is about to begin, let us fight for the construction of a prosperous and prosperous Atlantis on earth" "Strive for the construction of a prosperous and powerful Atlantis on the ground" The dwarves responded in unison, and more than 20,000 voices shook the mountains and forests.
At this time, a passionate and magnificent melody was heard in the distance.
The dwarves looked over in amazement to see a fat man in a long black trench coat and a floppy hat leading a group of humans towards the side, and the sound came from the small mechanical object he was holding, with strange black patterns engraved on it.
As the dwarves panicked and on guard, Archbishop Augustus said, "This is the guide of the god of steam, who will lead us to a new life." ” Along the way, the dwarves, who had already fully believed in the god of steam, were no longer afraid, and quietly watched the fat man look at themselves and the others with a strange gaze, just as they saw the ale and the steam creation, and the vampire saw the blood.
"I'm Arthur Doyle, and I'm going to arrange a new life for you, a life that is many times happier than the night plateau," Arthur's fat face was full of smiles.
So many dwarves who are good at smelting and manufacturing are simply a huge wealth, and many alchemy products have the possibility of expanding production.
As Arthur descended the hill and walked all the way to the platform, he saw the long magic steam train, and the dwarves wept bitterly again, this is indeed the paradise of steam, and it is their home.
Then, they looked left and right around the magic steam train, eager to take it apart and study it, until they got on the train.
"Why is the guide of the god of steam a banker" After the exchange just now, Mirna probably knew what a bank meant.
Harold said proudly, "I said earlier that the great god of steam is also the god of money, and it is normal for bankers to be his chosen people. ” After speaking, he showed a shocked and yearning expression: "I witnessed a small silver coin turn into an extremely terrifying and incredibly fast cannonball under the electric current exerted by the god of steam, which makes me wonder if the direction of the cannon of the giant ship of the steam civilization in the past has gone wrong, and whether we should combine the electric current to create a new cannon."
"Well, this is a new book from the Lord."
Augustus smiled and pulled out a book and handed it to Harold.

Harold picked it up and looked at it, and it read: Fundamentals of Electrical Technology.
Arthur walked to the last section of the train, sat down in front of a young man in a long black double-breasted gown, and said cordially and implicitly, "Evans, I didn't expect you to find such a large number of dwarves who are good at smelting and crafting. ” Lucien is likely to be the future Grand Arcanist, and he can't afford to be disrespectful.
Lucien shook the teacup and said, "You have to be kind to them, you have to give them enough salary and personal freedom, after all, I guided them."
Well, after giving them a good alchemy foundation, let them pass on the help and try to cultivate a large number of skilled workers. ” Previously in the Plateau of Night, due to the departure of the vampire prince, the attention of many powerful vampires was also attracted by the mysterious space, so things went well, Lucien only used the immortal throne robe to evoke necromancy and the newly created electromagnetic magic "Lucian's electromagnetic cannon" to complete the channeling This magic is still a little small at present, but as the level increases, the voltage and magnetic field strength will increase, it will be improved.
"Don't worry, I will definitely treat the people you arranged."
Arthur said without hesitation, not asking a word about the god of steam.
The Enchanted Steam Train approached Rentat, and in the morning, it was as bright as a galaxy of stars, no less than the rising sun.
This stunned the dwarves, as if they were dreaming back to Atlantis.
"Evans, since you don't have a good impression in the minds of the magicians of the electromagnetic, light and dark factions, and for your safety, this banquet, we declare to the outside world that it is something else, not the Silver Moon Medal award dinner.
Please understand this point.
The leader of the Song of the Silver Moon Alliance, a ninth-level arcanist and nine-ring archmage, Ruo Ajin, explained with a smile.
Because Brooke discovered a few days ago that the wavelength changes in the collision between X-rays and electrons, that is, the change in momentum, which conclusively proves the quantum hypothesis of light, so no matter how disgusted and hated Lucien by the Song of the Silver Moon Alliance, they can only pinch their noses and admit it.
Lucien followed him to the hall and said with a smile: "Actually, just give me the prize, I'm afraid that my appearance will frighten them." ” "No, as a big organization, as the awarding of the Silver Moon Medal, there must be a banquet to appear decent."
Joakin shook his head solemnly.
Otherwise, rumors will surely circulate outside that the Song of the Silver Moon Alliance is stingy, narrow-minded, and unwilling to face up to Lucian's contributions
