Extraordinary Puppeteer

Chapter 75 The Skaven

'Skaven magic?Could it be related to the Skaven? '

After Karin checked the information of [Sage], he immediately remembered that he had seen a thin booklet in the library——"Detailed Explanation of the Skaven".

It's just that I only saw the title of the book on the bookshelf, but didn't take it down to read.

He immediately took out his pocket watch to check the time.

'It's ten past six, enough time. '

Closing the pocket watch with a snap, Karin got up and left the dormitory, walking quickly towards the library.

Although the library has been closed, his authority can directly enter after the library is closed.

After a while, Karin walked to an inconspicuous small door on the side of the library, took out his ID card and pasted it on the door.

With a creak, the door opened automatically. There was a door-opening formula engraved on the door. Just stick the ID card of the Ranger Club and the door will open automatically. It is very convenient.

Karin walked into the library, came out with "Detailed Explanation of the Skaven" not long after, and returned to the apartment.

Opening the book, Karin began to quickly read the contents, and soon he had a general understanding of the Skaven, a race that was extremely prosperous in the middle and late stages of the Fourth Era.

In addition to the main race of the human race, there are many other races in the world, such as ratmen, goblins, vampires, dwarves, etc. There are all kinds of races that Karin can't think of.

But now the strength of the human race is well-deserved the strongest, so it only occupies the largest resources and territory.

Since the Sixth Era, with the decline of the extraordinary, it is almost impossible for ordinary people to see any aliens in the Old Continent.

In the New World, you may still see some non-human or humanoid races walking on the streets of human cities in broad daylight.

In the Fourth Era, although human beings still maintain the status of being the strongest and overlord, there are still several races that are weaker, but they have not stretched too much, and they also covet the title of strongest.

In that era, weak races or forces rose every once in a while, and powerful races and forces fell.

Among them, the Skaven is a powerful race in the Fourth Era.

Rat people are born with weak bodies, and their innate physical fitness is very disadvantaged compared with some other races.

But this does not mean that their strength is weak. Although the Skaven has a simple body but a well-developed brain, it can also become stronger through acquired practice.

With the birth of several new Si Chen and alchemy professions, something happened inside the Skaven, and a vigorous change took place in the whole clan.

The three major clans, the Mordel Clan, the Skryli Clan, and the Eshin Clan, succeeded in ruling the Skavens together.

Except for the Plague clan that inhabits the deep jungle of the New World, all the other Ratman clans are under the rule of the Three Great Clans.

"Detailed Explanation of the Skaven" also talks about this part very briefly, with only a few paragraphs.

However, Karin is not surprised. Very little history from that time has been handed down to the present. It is already very good that the people of the Sixth Epoch can find so much content.

However, Karin may also be able to restore some truths. When the sage became the queen of the gods in the early fourth era, there was an additional [sage] path in the world, and some changes may have taken place inside the Skaven.

For a long time, the Skavens have been vigorously developing steam technology, both in terms of extraordinary power and technological power.

In the middle of the fourth era, they built a magnificent giant capital - Skaven, which gathered the essence of wisdom of the entire race.

Immediately after it was built, it became famous all over the world, and even before it fell, it was nicknamed "the magic city that never falls" by others.

Karin read with relish the introduction to the Skaven in the book.

But after some introductions at the beginning, the following content is only a dozen pages, and he finished it in a few clicks.

There are even very few descriptions of how the Skaven fell, the social system and extraordinary system of the Skaven of the Fourth Epoch.

It is only recorded that after the fall of the Skaven demon capital, most of the ratmen migrated to the New World to survive. Due to the deterrence of the plague clan, these small ratmen clans were not completely wiped out by other races.

And in the sixth era, the Skavens were scattered and there was no strong man who came out to reunify the entire race, and many clans were lost due to inheritance, and the extraordinary system had no way out after reaching the mentor level.

Karin shook his head helplessly, there was too little information recorded.

Archeology is not only a technical job, but also a high-risk occupation. Too much historical information will be contaminated with spirituality.

As a result, all history more than 2000 years ago has no system, and fragmented information is everywhere.

There are also many contradictory records in ancient books, which have caused a small quarrel every three days and a big quarrel every five days. If you want to dig out the historical truth through archaeology, it’s really impossible if you have no hard skills.

'The complete history has to be explored by myself. '

Karin looked at [Witch King] and then at [Sage], [Witch King] has not yet reached the reset time, and [Sage] can enter at any time.

'Is the reset time of the two copies calculated separately? '

While thinking this way, Karin started to prepare before entering, and chose to enter [Sage] after ensuring that the alchemy table, bookcase and other items could be brought in.

After a twist and change in front of his eyes, Karin came to a new room.

When he regained his vision, his eyes widened, and a pungent smell of blood rushed towards him.

Not far ahead, a headless corpse that had been disemboweled was lying in a pool of blood that had already solidified.

Next to it, there was a slightly raised mouse head, and its eyes that had lost their brightness looked straight at Karin, as if they were looking at him.

Karin began to look at everything in front of him.

Since crossing into this world, he has seen many corpses, but this is the first time he has seen a corpse of a non-human race.

This is an empty hall, but the ceiling has been lifted, and the walls on all sides are also incomplete.

Based on the surrounding information, Karin immediately deduced that the place he was in was the lobby of a duplex apartment.

It's just that this apartment was once ravaged by fierce artillery fire, and it is now in ruins.

The wreckage of the collapsed stairs in the hall made the place not so empty. Fortunately, the four walls were preserved, at least they can block the sight of the outside world.

In the hall, apart from Karin and the items he brought in, there was also the corpse he saw when he came.

This is not a human corpse, it looks like a rat magnified many times.

The height is only about 1.4 meters by visual inspection, and the blood-stained clothes and shoes on the body indicate that the other party is an intelligent creature with its own civilization rather than a beast.

The hands with only four fingers were still tightly grasping a steam rifle that looked a little smaller.

at this time.

boom--

Da da da da da da da da --

Carlin's thoughts were interrupted by a gunshot outside.

'Speeding firearms!machine gun?Or an automatic rifle? '

Shaking his head, he ignored the gunshots and walked to the headless rat man's body.

Karin has absolute confidence in the initial safe zone, no matter how chaotic the outside world is, he can't be hit here
He took the steam-powered rifle in the Ratman's hand and began to examine it, during which he withdrew the magazine to observe the bullets one by one.

After checking for a while, Karin felt very bad.

'The caliber exceeds 7 mm, the magazine capacity is 15 rounds, and it is also equipped with a sniper scope. The visual range is at least 400 meters. The bullets are enchanted with runes.

Uh. The hot weapons in this dungeon should only be firearms, right? '
