Chapter 73: Sharpness and Awe

With the banishment of Mengdeng, the oppressive atmosphere in the library dissipated.

Anvis noticed with sharp eyes that on a black amphibole square table facing the door, there were two items that were somewhat incompatible with the surrounding environment.

A dark gold metal plate and an old piece of parchment.

Completion reward?

Although he knew that those two items might be rewards, he did not step forward to check them immediately. Instead, he deliberately avoided the table and first looked at the various mystery books and items displayed in the library.

Anvis was worried that after touching those two items, it might be directly judged as passing the welcome ceremony, and thus be directly teleported out of the mirror space.

Unsurprisingly, although the various books looked fine, none of them could be opened.

The same goes for various items, which are just like magic projections and do not contain any mysterious properties.

Anvis did not give up, but used his mental strength to scan every bookshelf carefully.

As we all know, the large library of the Academy of Ruins and Mysteries contains a large number of undeciphered mysterious items.

And mystery symbolizes the unknown. Even the dean of the mysterious academy may not be sure what kind of mysteries are contained in the books here!

He was a little curious about whether there was a power contained in a certain object that could affect his own copy in the mirror space.

"Huh? Yes!"

After checking two-thirds of the bookshelves, Avis finally made a discovery.

Ancient Languages/Writing Area, Thirteenth Floor of ‘Book’ Shelf No. 3, twenty-seven books from the left.

He controlled his mental power to form telekinesis tentacles and carefully removed the book.

Although it is called a 'book', it is actually made of a black flake rock, about eleven centimeters thick, and has no cover. The main text is written in a strange character that resembles the traces of earthworms.

When the mental power sweeps over, you can faintly notice that this 'book' is different from the surrounding books.

Although the other books also have different appearances, their magical atmosphere is exactly the same.

Taking down the book, Anvis did not try to flip through it in a hurry, but continued to check the bookshelf.

Sure enough, when he checked the eighteenth giant shelf from the bottom, he discovered a special book again.

"Two copies? It's not too little."

All the bookshelves were checked, and Anvis looked at the two books in front of him.

In addition to the stone book, the other one is made of a white bone material, with an abstract giant beast like a skeletal spider painted on the cover.

Both books are placed in very hidden corners and are difficult to find unless you search deliberately.

Anvis had a thought and was going to try to open the black stone book first.

But what he didn't expect was that as the book opened, a piece of paper and a metal plate engraved with the Pamir coat of arms suddenly fell out of thin air.

"Is this also part of the test?"

Anvis was stunned for a moment, then understood.

"That's right. It's just a blind spot. I can think of it. There's no reason why others can't think of it."

He opened another book again, and sure enough he got another metal plaque and a piece of paper.

"keen?"

There are several ancient Manni characters written on each of the two pieces of paper, and when combined together, it is the word 'keen'.

After thinking for a while, Avis temporarily put away the iron cards and pieces of paper and began to study whether there was any valuable content in the two books.

.

….….

"There's something hidden in those two books?! But how did the newcomer discover it?"

"I'm more curious about why he didn't check the items on the table that were obviously rewards first."

While Anvis was reading, everyone at the top of the tower started a heated discussion around his actions.

Unknowingly, the other two freshmen who were climbing the tower at this time were ruthlessly ignored by everyone...

Among the crowd, several powerful old students did not participate in the discussion, but were lost in thought.

If you put yourself in this freshman's position, how would you respond?

After everyone discussed for a while, an old student whose left eye showed a strange rainbow color and whose strength reached the third level peak spoke, clearing up the doubts of other students.

"You don't understand that in that mirror space, most objects are just superficial copies.

For example, there is nothing wrong with the appearance of those books. But I'm sure there won't be any content inside, and it may even be impossible to open it.

But after all, this is a large library of the mysterious department. Among the books containing mysterious power, no one can be sure whether there is a certain item with the power to affect its own mirror image.

And this freshman probably thought of this immediately after discovering that the collection of books was fake.

Instead, the characteristics of the mirror space became his 'sieve', helping him filter out those special items. "

Looking at the young man's graceful profile with a gray crystal pendant hanging in the projection, the old student made a solemn comment.

"To take this step into consideration, you must have unusual insights. The identity of this new student is by no means ordinary, and he is most likely from a noble family!"

After this old student's explanation, some people secretly started to think about it and began to pay attention to the appearance of the two books.

I plan to go to the library to borrow it as soon as the orientation activities are over to see if I can research anything.

However, several of the strongest old students did not have such thoughts.

It makes no sense. Even if we know that these two ‘books’ can affect the special nature of projection, it does not mean that the difficulty of studying and cracking their essence has been reduced.

On the contrary, the power to affect one’s own projection proves that these two books are likely to be mysterious items of a higher level.

If so, the difficulty of cracking the magic attached to these two books is probably higher than that of other books and strange objects.

On the other side, in the mysterious library, Avis closed the two books again and put them back to their original place.

Although they were affected to a certain extent by the power of the original body, their specific contents were still unclear.

This is normal. If its power was enough to make the false mirror image as clear as the original body, then these two books would not be placed in the outermost partition of the library.

"After going out, borrow these two books."

After noting the location of the two books, Avis finally returned to the table in front of the main door and prepared to check the two items on the table.

When he walked to the front of the square table, the paper on the table suddenly lit up. Several lines of apple-sized words emitting pale white light appeared in the air.

‘Congratulations to the 734th freshman who successfully arrived here’

‘Put the metal plate on the table on the identity card to increase the reading privileges of the first-level mysterious library’

‘You will return to the outside world in one minute. The metal plate cannot be taken out, please use it immediately’

‘Note: The nightmare has frightened 306 ‘hot-blooded and fearless’ freshmen. If this is a real relic, they have lost their precious lives.

‘Remember, in front of the mystery, be in awe——’

Looking at the words in the air, Avis suddenly felt something and took out the two pieces of paper he had obtained before.

It seemed that some kind of magic mechanism was triggered, and the handwriting on the surface of the two pieces of paper also began to glow at this time.

The white characters in the air paused slightly, and a part of new content appeared again at the back.

‘If you have read this content, it proves that you have found the two books’

‘To achieve this step, sharp thinking and meticulous perception are indispensable’

‘Congratulations to you again, you are the 286th freshman to read this content’
