The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 1463 Compensation

The books that were supposed to be transparent and disappear slowly began to shake violently when 'Gluttony' pounced on them, as if they had encountered a natural enemy.

The speed of disappearance suddenly more than doubled.

But for 'Gluttony', which explodes at 300% speed when faced with food, it is still too slow.

‘Gluttony’ grabbed the book that had disappeared for more than half, and then, with a shake of his palm, the book that had mostly disappeared suddenly appeared completely.

Then?

'Gluttony' opened his mouth wide and stuffed the whole book into his mouth, like chewing beef. After chewing it several times, he swallowed it.

"Delicious!"

‘Gluttony’ stammered to express his most intuitive feelings to Kieran.

"Do you remember the taste?"

Kieran asked with a smile.

"remember!"

'Gluttony' nodded.

"Can you find it?"

Qin Ran still smiled.

"able!"

'Gluttony' nodded again.

"Then what are you waiting for?"

"I give you permission to eat anything that tastes the same before sunrise... no matter what it is."

Kieran said calmly.

But before Kieran could finish speaking, 'Gluttony' disappeared.

When 'Gluttony' disappeared, there was a hint of coldness in Qin Ran's eyes.

Especially when he called Rufu to inquire and learned that there was only one book about 'gods' in the entire library, "Discussions on the Development of the Temple of Navia City", his coldness became even more intense. .

There was no doubt that this was a trap set against him.

And who in the entire Goldland knew that he would enter the library about ‘gods’?

The answer is self-evident.

Apart from the 'God of Knowledge' who had just appeared, Qin Ran could not think of other possibilities.

Although Kieran has always been wary of strange existences, he would not kill innocent people indiscriminately, but what if the other party showed hostility?

kill!

This is Kieran's principle.

"Your Majesty, do you want to find more records about gods?"

Rufu, who did not leave, asked cautiously.

Although Qin Ran still looked indifferent, the wise man clearly found that there was something different about Qin Ran.

But he didn't dare to ask more.

"Um."

Kieran nodded and looked at the other person, the meaning was obvious.

"I know some records of gods."

"But I can't guarantee the authenticity."

"It's precisely because of this that they can't appear here - because many people think those are ridiculous things."

"I'll have someone bring it to you if you need it."

Ruff immediately replied.

"Move here."

Qin Ran ordered.

"OK."

Ruff said immediately.

"Do you think what you know is the truth?"

"You are just a blinder!"

An old scholar slapped the table in front of him vigorously. The thin man was obviously very angry. This slap not only made the water glasses on the table in front of him jump, but also made the palm of the other person's palm turn red.

Pain spread across the palms of my hands.

But the other party ignored the pain at all. Instead, he walked around the table and grabbed the neck collar of an equally old man opposite.

The old man at the other end of the table did not give in, facing the captured old scholar, he just waved his fist.

"I just have a unique perspective!"

"And you're just jealous of my talent!"

"It's been like this since I was young!"

The old man yelled and fought with his old friend who rushed over.

The companions around the two people were admonishing each other.

They all had wry smiles on their faces.

They have seen this kind of thing countless times.

Although every time it is like a chicken and a dog, making people feel powerless, it will not be long before it appears again.

Stubborn.

The strengths of almost every scholar are also their weaknesses.

Of course, no one present thought this was a shortcoming.

Sometimes, they are even proud of it.

And on the corner bookshelf that these people couldn't notice, a seemingly ordinary book squirmed slowly, as if it was absorbing something.

But the next moment, the squirming stopped abruptly.

A strong hand grabbed it from the shadows and stuffed it into his mouth.

The 'power' that enveloped the entire room in the sound of chewing quickly dissipated.

boom!

The bookshelf where the book was stored seemed to have been hit hard and fell apart. Such a noise stopped the argument between the two old men.

"snort!"

"I'm going to pack the books!"

The old man who took action first snorted coldly.

"Don't think you are the only one who loves books!"

"Me too!"

Another old man said without any sign of weakness.

The people around them stood in front of the two people with a tacit understanding. They had expected that a dispute would start again, but to their surprise, the two old men did not continue to argue, but actually started arguing. Start packing books.

And, pull together.

Although there were inevitable blows and glares during this process, there was no more fighting.

"Lucky bookshelf!"

The scholars around him all expressed their praise, and then began to help.

After all, the two old scholars are no longer old enough to do physical work.

Young people only pay attention to physical work.

Especially at night.

A figure swayed behind the bed curtain, and a young man in pajamas ran barefoot to the desk in the bedroom. He was flipping through a pink-covered book.

"The posture is still a bit wrong."

"But how can normal people achieve such a posture..."

"Honey, come on!"

The sweet voice made the young man immediately give up thinking and glanced at the books, ready to try again in a different position.

There are so many poses, there is always one that suits him.

for example……

The book with the pink cover was about to squirm again amidst the sound of crunching and applause, when it was swallowed by a big mouth. This time, it was swallowed without even chewing.

One, two, three...

Very special books are disappearing rapidly.

And every time a book disappears, the translucent figure in a hidden place in Tower Manor trembles.

As if the flesh on his body was being torn off, the other party let out a painful groan.

But this didn't stop the other party's actions.

The other party put books one by one into the baggage.

That's right, the opponent with the title of 'God of Knowledge' plans to run away.

He had never seen anyone like Qin Ran.

Calm, cautious but brutal and tyrannical.

Most importantly, no reason.

He knew very well that if he appeared in front of the other party to explain, he would be swallowed by the monster. There was no other possibility except this.

But at the same time, he knew better that if he didn't give the other party a satisfactory explanation, that person would definitely hunt him down.

Therefore, the 'God of Knowledge' immediately took out a piece of paper and started writing.

After I finished writing, I felt the monster getting closer and closer. The other person picked up the baggage and disappeared.

Only a piece of paper was left slowly falling from the air.
