Chapter 200 Sir 136
Chapter 200 136. Sir Shu
The library in front of him was spacious and full of charm. Fisher walked along the rows of bookshelves until he reached the center of the library, which was under the huge crystal glass. The moonlight fell on Fisher. On Er's body, he lowered his head and saw a revised map of Nali.
"This is too many books. Our tribe has recorded hundreds of years of history in only a few scrolls."
Hiatt looked at the densely packed books and categories on the surrounding bookshelves. The first floor of the library is the highest, about six or seven meters high. The tall bookshelves around it are divided into categories. The books on them are arranged neatly, and the books on the second floor are neatly arranged. On the third floor are books in other categories.
The books here are basically from their original sources. For example, most of the academic books that Fisher read in the Royal Academy Library when he was in college are printed here. There are obvious signs of repair on the covers of many books, because they were They had been treated roughly by the Swali invaders during the war.
"The books here are far less than one-fifth of the books in the royal library before the 'Gedlin's Shame'. Some of them have been kept privately by people at home and abroad and have not been returned to this day. A larger part were burned in the fire. Like It is the "Encyclopedia of Narli Magic" that Teacher Hailsham has devoted his whole life to revising. This book was actually revised once during the reign of Gedelin II and was also lost in the chaos. "
"Is the Encyclopedia of Magic so important? I see that your Magic Association is creating new magic every year. The amount of magic created in the past few years has already caught up with the number recorded in the Encyclopedia of Magic?"
Anna crossed her hands and followed Fisher to look at the surrounding bookshelves, asking this question.
Although she is from the Southern Continent, she has lived in Nali for a long time and knows enough about many things here, much better than the two confused Asian ladies.
Fisher nodded without comment, but still looked at Jasmine behind him and said,
"Magic does not come out of thin air. Except for those powerful people who have designed new rings and new magical ideas, most of the other magicians are just standing on the shoulders of giants and groping. Now the new magic we design is largely Either it’s a strange stitched product, or it’s an improvement based on the ideas of existing magic.”
"But innovating a completely unfamiliar magic idea is a high-risk link. Once the design of magic goes wrong, half of your body may be blown off by magic in an instant, you may be swallowed up by the world and sent to an unknown space, or you may be squeezed into a corpse. Mummy corpses are more likely to go crazy directly."
Fisher's words made several ladies shudder. They didn't know much about the nature of magic. They thought these things were like existences in stories and myths. They could run a magic with a wave of their hands, but they ignored the magic. In essence, it is an academic building constructed from theory.
Once something is linked to theory, it becomes very boring, just like mathematics.
Perhaps it is precisely because people in the Western Continent have accepted the essential ideas of magic very early that when the concepts of physics, chemistry and other natural sciences came into being, scholars entered into them without any resistance to explore, and in two hundred years they made great achievements. Good results.
"This is also the reason why the ancient magic masters are so revered. Most of them spent their lives to create the possibility of magic design regardless of the cost. There may be hundreds of people behind a magic scrawled in the magic book. The lives of magicians. Many schools of magic engraving have withered and died, but their engraving techniques and heraldry have not remained. This is a loss to Nari and the world's magic community."
"Forget it, it's just a reflection. Now let's focus on finding the entrance to the treasure house."
Fisher saw a small lamp for people to use next to the bookshelf. He picked up the lamp and lit it. Finally, there was a little light source in the dark library. Fisher used the light source to sweep the " Magical books", and then looked away without finding anything.
"It's already around two o'clock in the morning. Let's seize the time and search separately on the first floor to see if there is anything strange."
"Um"
Anna nodded and left from the other direction. Hiatt hesitated for a second, then turned and left with Anna, while Jasmine stayed with Fisher.
Blake built these two buildings for the Gedelin royal family, and arrogantly buried his treasure house below. According to Fisher's speculation, if there is an entrance to the treasure house here, there are roughly two ways to enter.
One is a simple physical mechanism, like in the healing room. If you press a button or enter a password, the passage into the treasure house will be opened.
But if this is the case, it would be too obvious, not to mention that Katsina often came here to get equipment and relics before, so she would definitely come here often to enter the treasure house.
As for why Katsina was able to enter the royal private land next to Lake Nali so easily?
First of all, it's because Black has permission to come and go here freely, but this is not the main reason. The most important thing is that there is Rensis in the royal family, who has reached a cooperation with Black and the others.
In other words, this is not only the meaning of Lensis, but more likely the meaning of Gedlin IX?
Then, the second possibility is that there are relics or mechanisms triggered by magic.
Magic has a coat of arms, and there will be magic fluctuations on it. Fisher also knows the structure of magic very well. You only need to see a magic to roughly know how it works. Although there are no traces of relics, as long as you can use the naked eye When you see a relic, you can keenly feel that it is not an ordinary item. This is why Fisher asked Anna and the others to look for any strange items.
"Strange, there is no fluctuation of magic crest here. Could it be that Blake is using a relic as a switch?"
After scanning the area on the first floor, Fisher did not find any traces of magic, and could not help but turn his attention to the line of relics.
This is very possible, especially after confirming the relationship between Black and Mingxi, a whale man who can make relics.
Jasmine followed Fisher and looked around along the lights. It turned out that besides books, there was only a table for people to read. She passed through the bookshelves and returned to the center. Anna over there also took hope with her. Yate returned to the center position,
"Did you find anything over there?"
Anna shook her head and said,
"Besides the switches that operate the lights and the glass dome above, there are only books."
There are no windows in the main part of the library, so from the beginning of the design, the large glass cover above the head was used as a large window. At this moment, all the glass was closed. Fisher raised his head and glanced at the There is no trace of magic power fluctuations on the glass windows.
"Could it be on the second floor?"
The moon in the sky has begun to tilt, and it will be dawn in less than four hours. I don’t know if Blake knows about his escape. Fisher doesn’t dare to take a gamble, so he has to speed up and focus on the second floor and On the third floor.
The first floor of the library is all filled with academic and historical books, while the second and third floors have some other story books, fairy tale books, pictures, etc., and the space on the second and third floors is obviously not as large as the first floor, with bookshelves. It is not removable, let alone contains any relics or magical emblems.
Fischer and Anna, who did not believe in evil, searched for an hour in the library without finding anything. It was late at night, and Anna and Siatt rested a little tiredly on the first floor. Only Fischer and Jasmine were still searching on the second floor.
After searching for a while, he found nothing, which made Fisher confused. Could it be that it was really a physical switch? That is too obvious. This library has been built for so many years, and the subsequent repairs and maintenance are all the responsibility of the royal family. Are they really so stupid that they never discovered it?
This is so illogical
Later, Jasmine and Fisher began to flip through the classics on the bookshelves at will. Could it be that there was a relic hidden in the book, similar to a bookmark.
But if this is the case, if you don't know which book it is, it will be quite difficult to find the relic. Do you really have to wait for Black to come over and fight to the death?
Jasmine and Fisher were on the second floor, holding a third edition of "The Heroic Stories of Narli" and reading it with gusto. They had been looking for it for more than an hour, and Fisher asked her to take a rest. , and then think about the possibility of entering the treasure house.
This book records many official or private biographies of Nali heroes from the period from Gedlin I to Gedlin V. What Jasmine is reading at the moment is the story of Gedlin I during the battle at the beginning, telling how he could not bear to hurt the people in the city. And gave up the use of giant siege equipment, and finally withdrew the troops.
The general of the Central Empire guarding the city was moved by the kindness and wisdom of King Gedelin I. He knew that the Central Empire had been corrupted for too long and was exhausted, but he could not betray his loyalty to it. So he decided to commit suicide to serve the country, but he asked all his men to follow Gedelin I.
"The empire's ship has carried me for half my life, and I can't abandon it. You young talents who board the ship certainly have the right to choose a new ship. That ship will be bigger and more spacious, and the captain will be more capable." Wisdom, go ahead and leave to follow the new master after I die.”
Jasmine opened her little mouth, and a legendary story came to mind. The image of the heroic, courageous and intelligent Gedelin I appeared on the paper and went straight into her mind.
"Haha, this story is false. The real reason why Gedelin I decided to give up the siege was that there was not enough food and grass to last the next attack; and the general did not voluntarily commit suicide to serve the country, it was his men who guarded the city. If there is no hope, it is better to kill the guard and surrender to the enemy."
"Oooh! Ghost!"
Just when Jasmine was reading with gusto, a male voice with a drake voice suddenly sounded next to her. Jasmine was suddenly pulled out of the world of the story. She was so frightened that she subconsciously waved her hand and punched the book. In a thick and simple book.
The book was originally open, but this time the book flew out, spun several times in mid-air and fell to the ground.
Jasmine gasped and put down the book in her hand, turned around and looked around. There was no one else except the book. Fisher had gone to the third floor to search for clues, but now she was alone on the second floor.
In other words, the sound just now came from this book?
And I was a little scared just now, so I didn't notice that the book seemed to be floating in mid-air? !
Jasmine pursed her lips, too scared to go over, so she had to throw the book in her hand over to test whether the thing was alive. As a result, as soon as she threw it out, the book was caught by Fisher who was coming downstairs.
He looked at Jasmine in confusion, not understanding why she threw the book. He just heard her shouting and went downstairs.
"What's wrong?"
"Fisher! There is a ghost in that book!"
"A ghost?"
Fisher turned his head and looked at the heavy and ancient book on the ground. When he was close to it, Fisher suddenly realized that there was no title or any text on the book on the ground. He should have searched the location on the second floor just now. He was confident in his memory and should not have read this book.
Fisher squatted down and was about to reach out to pick up the book, but an eye suddenly opened on the cover of the book and looked straight at Fisher. This did not scare Fisher, because the fluid sword in his hand had already extended out, and the mercury-like blade was about to swing at the book.
"Don't! Sir! Don't do it! I'm a good person. Oh no, a good book!"
The eyes on the book slightly curved, revealing a humane look of fear and panic, and it suddenly floated up out of thin air. At this moment, not only eyes appeared on the cover of the book, but also a small mouth with big white teeth. The mouth opened and kept shouting at Fisher.
The strange book that kept floating in the air made Fisher subconsciously feel that this thing was like a biological experiment created by Blake, because he was really too ugly and abstract.
"Listen, listen. I have no ill intentions. Even if I have any, I can't pose any threat to you. I'm just a book! A harmless, adorable book!"
Even though this book has a mouth on its "face", when he speaks, not only does it open its mouth, but the pages behind it also open and close continuously, just like an accordion that needs to be pushed and pulled. Through the pages he opened, Fisher discovered that the pages were all densely packed with handwriting. I don't know what is recorded in them.
"Shut up."
His duck-like male voice was so unpleasant that it sounded like noise pollution. Fisher raised the fluid sword in his hand and pointed it at him speechlessly, frightening him to close his mouth immediately, with a flattering smile in his eyes.
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you and won't talk."
Moli also ran over curiously, looking at the ancient book with only one eye floating in the air, and she opened her mouth in fear. She didn't know what it was, and it looked so strange.
"I ask you to answer. Tell me, what are you and how did you end up here?"
"What? Thing?!"
The book's eyes suddenly widened, and then the whole book opened up a lot, as if taking a deep breath to relax. After a pause of one second, he shouted at Fisher in disbelief,
"How dare you call me a thing! It's really treasonous. Listen carefully, I am the honorable [Book Lord], Emhart!"
