Chapter 147 Players Meet

[You have learned the knowledge: Ancient Troll Language.

In the Scholar's Tower of Storm's End, the setting sunlight came in through the tall arched windows.

The sunlight illuminated the dust in the air, and also reflected the colors of the painted windows on the long table piled with historical materials.

Enduring a pain comparable to cerebral congestion, Li Feng sat in the middle of the long table on the first floor of the Scholar's Tower without changing his expression.

In his hands were stacks of old, yellowed, and frayed historical materials.

On both sides of him, the Violet Eye's Weaver mentors sat one after another.

At this moment, they were looking at Li Feng with expectant eyes.

As a middle and senior level of the Violet Eye, mentor Alton sat next to Li Feng.

He saw Li Feng looking down at the historical materials without saying a word, and he was anxious.

The lost place known as the Theater of Sorrow had appeared last night.

Alton thought that with his fourth-level Weaver and many high-level colleagues, it would be easy to conduct an in-depth investigation of a high tower.

But who would have thought that, let alone an in-depth investigation, last night, they used all their strength and could not even pry open the door of the tower.

But this was not the most anxious thing for him.

After all, even if he was not as skilled as others, the powerful Violet Eye would surely be able to send other weavers to solve the problem.

At most, he could save some face and ask the chief who was almost a step away from demigod to come out.

But who would have thought that just when Alton felt that there was still a way out, the lights on the first floor of the Sad Theater suddenly lit up.

After his apprentice's guess and the few ancient troll words he recognized, Alton found them in the historical materials sent to him by the floating island.

The discovery that the lights in the Sad Theater were on meant that someone had already entered.

Although this conclusion was likely wrong, if it was true...

Alton was just shocked.

Not to mention who that powerful existence was, just talk about the inside of their Violet Eye.

For the Sad Theater, the Violet Eye had paid a lot of price, but if someone got there first.

Not to mention that the Violet Eye would become a laughing stock in the Endless Sea, even they themselves would be in a state of disgrace.

So immediately, Alton sent a letter to the Floating Island, informing the Violet Council and the Chief of everything.

As expected, the Council was in a mess.

But after all, this matter was serious, and in the end, the Chief still replied to him, saying that he would send someone to solve it immediately.

However, in the vast ocean, it would take time for anyone to come.

If during this period of time, the existence that was suspected to have entered the theater directly passed through all seven floors of the theater.

This would be a big commotion.

Therefore, Alton, who was almost standing on the hot pot, could only temporarily pin his hopes on the historical materials written in the ancient troll language.

Although the trolls were barbaric and primitive, they were unmatched by any other race in recording the secrets of the Endless Sea.

However, the ancient troll language was not something that other races could easily master.

In order to calm his anxiety, Alton took a deep breath.

He looked at the young man sitting next to him, who was still holding the historical materials and said nothing.

Alton was a little unsure about Li Feng.

At first, he heard from the apprentice who managed the books that someone in Storm's End had a good knowledge of trolls.

He thought that person must be an old scholar who was several dozen years older than himself.

But when he asked about the other person's age, he learned that he was a young man in his twenties.

This made Alton lose confidence immediately.

After all, in common sense, anyone who has a deep understanding of trolls has to spend a long time.

In his twenties, this young age is almost impossible.

I wanted to laugh it off, but Alton, who was middle-aged, was no longer a child who acted on his feelings.

But it was not worth wasting time fearlessly.

So, before Alton went to invite Li Feng, he asked his apprentices to inquire about Li Feng in Storm's End and the Bachelor's Tower.

If the rumored young man was not reliable, then this matter would only be a joke.

But who would have thought that according to the news heard by the apprentices, Li Feng had a very good character and his experience was quite legendary.

He had confronted demons and had the kingdom confer him a title.

Even the shrewd governor of Storm Island used half of the books in the Bachelor's Tower to win him over.

He seemed to be interested in marrying his daughter to him.

After getting these news, Alton became interested in Li Feng.

No one would do a losing business. Since those big men with status were willing to win him over, this young man must have something extraordinary.

And it just so happened that this young man was interested in trolls and had researched them. Maybe he would really know the ancient troll language.

"Mr. Rhine, you see..."

His thoughts turned around a thousand times, but in fact it was only a moment. Seeing Li Feng calmly flipping through the historical materials, Alton couldn't help asking a question.

Li Feng looked at Alton after hearing this. As for the ancient troll language, he really didn't know it two or three seconds ago.

But for Li Feng, learning a language is just a matter of two or three seconds.

"I can understand a little bit."

Li Feng looked at the middle-aged, thin and slightly balding Alton, nodded slightly and replied.

His voice was very soft, but in the tower of scholars where a pin drop could be heard, it was like thunder to the ears of those expectant weavers.

It was like a person who encountered a shipwreck and floated on the boundless sea suddenly heard the sound of a ship's whistle in the distance.

Finally, there was a turning point and hope.

"Your Majesty, Goddess Weaver, this is so wonderful, so wonderful."

Alton and other Spellweaver mentors were overjoyed to hear that Li Feng could understand the ancient troll language in historical records.

The dark clouds that shrouded the Violet Eyes Mission finally dissipated.

Alton was eager to translate historical materials, but he was afraid that Li Feng would not be willing to help.

So, he first said some flattering words to Li Feng, but found that Li Feng was easy-going and had no intention of being arrogant about his talent.

Alton was even more surprised and happy at the moment, and no longer cared about anything else, he started to ask Li Feng for advice on those things that he always felt were ambiguous.

The other weaver instructors helped sort out the yellowed papers and took pens to record.

For a moment, the hall on the first floor of the Bachelor's Tower was filled with the sound of turning papers and the sound of whispers discussing knowledge.

Looking at everything in front of him, Qi Heng, who was standing in the back row as a waiter, breathed a sigh of relief.

He is not only for Violet Eyes, but also for the official of the player world.

After this return, the official database will be filled with a batch of important information.

‘But how can this Rhine, at such a young age, know the ancient troll language? ’

While Qi Heng breathed a sigh of relief, he was also guessing and curious in his heart.

And just as curious as Qi Heng was Xia.

When Alton found Li Feng just now, Sia, who had turned into a cat, was lying on Li Feng's arm.

Because she wanted to see Li Feng's good luck, Xia also went to the Bachelor's Tower.

At this moment, she looked at Li Feng. The historical data from the floating island seemed to be really related to the Theater of Sadness.

Shia was curious, so she used her cat form to jump up from the end of the long table, wanting to see the historical materials with her own eyes.

But who would have thought that as soon as she jumped on the table and glanced at the yellowed and old pages of the book, her eyesight went dark and the top of her head hurt.

Then he fell back to the ground.

‘Who hit me? ’

Shia immediately got up and looked up, and realized that she had just been photographed by a bald old man using a notebook to record notes.

Shia looked at the embroidered robe on his body and knew that he, like Alton, was the Spellweaver mentor of Violet Eyes.

Staring at him hatefully, Sia planned to get up from the other side of the table.

But unexpectedly, the bald old man kicked me again. This time Shia successfully dodged it, but she didn't realize it until she landed.

At this moment, not only the old man, but also the apprentice of Violet Eyes and the apprentice who manages the library came to chase her.

Xia was angry in her heart and dodged around.

‘Cats don’t have the right to read books! ? ’

Indeed, in the eyes of these people, this black cat is here to cause trouble.

"Where did the wild cat come from? Chase it away immediately."

The bald old man sitting at the end of the long table gave instructions to his apprentice.

After hearing this, the apprentice chased the cat even more energetically.

After hearing this, Xia became even more angry and cursed:

‘My mother obviously discovered the Lost Land first, and those troll historical materials obviously belong to our family, but you humans don’t let me see them! ’

Indeed, since ancient times, the trolls have been protected by the dragon, and the trolls also respect the Black Dragon Queen as their queen.

Thinking of these and comparing the current situation, Xia felt that the situation was over and people's hearts were not as good as before.

But at the same time, these feelings also made her extremely unwilling.

There was a pursuer behind, so she used the cat's small and nimble body to dodge.

Soon she ran from the end of the long table to the middle of the long table, and a person appeared in her field of vision.

Li Feng was sitting at the center of the long table, looking at the historical materials in his hands with Alton.

From Xia's perspective, the younger Li Feng was sitting there upright.

On the other hand, the older Alton, eager for knowledge, leaned forward and carefully asked Li Feng questions.

As soon as Shia glanced at this scene, she realized that the pursuers were coming behind her, and they were also holding feather dusters for cleaning the dust on the bookshelf.

Shia is a cat now, so she definitely can't use extraordinary magic.

And those apprentices would not be serious about using extraordinary abilities with a cat.

But there were still only two ways before Sia.

Either surrender, be driven out of the maester's tower, and give up.

Either.

Sia glanced at Li Feng. He and Alton were concentrating on talking about something at the moment and had no idea what was happening behind them.

The chair Li Feng sat on was a little away from the long table.

From Sia's angle, she could just see his neatly pressed formal jacket and trousers, as well as the vest that was exposed because his jacket was unbuttoned.

Xia thought of something and suddenly jumped into Li Feng's lap.

Here, Li Feng is checking the history of the Sad Theater recorded in historical materials, and translating some for Alton as appropriate.

But suddenly, he found that there was an extra cat on his body.

Looking down, it was Sia.

Li Feng was stunned for a moment, and Xia was also raising her cat's head and looking at him, as if she wanted to say something.

Xia really wanted to explain something through the contract, but now she was sitting on Li Feng's lap and felt very embarrassed.

Suddenly he couldn't say anything, so he simply said nothing. He turned around and put his head on the long table, pretending to be dead and reading those historical materials.

At the same time, as embarrassed as Sia, there were the apprentices who were chasing her, and the bald old man who had just beaten Sia.

"Uh, this, I didn't know this was Mr. Rhine's cat. Please forgive me, sir."

The bald old man sitting at the end of the long table quickly stood up and nodded awkwardly to apologize.

And those apprentices were even more at a loss at this moment.

Seeing this situation, Li Feng finally figured out what had just happened and felt funny in his heart.

Looking at the cat in my arms who put her head on the table and pretended to be dead, I guess she was using me as a shield.

"It's okay, the kitten is ignorant. It's me who should ask for your forgiveness."

Li Feng said with a smile, resolving the awkward situation.

When everyone heard what he said, they naturally breathed a sigh of relief and felt very comfortable.

But Alton, who also understood what happened just now, was very dissatisfied with his people doing such a mindless thing.

Immediately, he looked at several people with stern and reproachful eyes.

The previous episode had passed, and Alton hurriedly asked the interrupted question again.

"Mr. Rhine, you mean that at midnight tonight, the door to the first floor of the Theater of Sorrow will be opened?"

Xia, who was still sitting on Li Feng's lap, was also shocked when she heard this.

‘Anyone can come in tonight? ’

Shia only knows troll language, and as for the ancient troll language, she only knows a few sporadic ones.

Naturally, she couldn't understand historical materials. At this moment, she listened quietly to Li Feng's answer.

“That’s indeed what this historical record says.”

Li Feng pointed to the strange words on a piece of yellowed paper and continued:

“What it says here is that a long time ago, before it sank to the bottom of the sea, the Theater of Sorrow was a theater for people to watch plays.

But in the theater industry at that time, special performances and public performances were prevalent.

A special performance usually precedes a public performance and is performed by invitation only.

As for public performances, the door is open and anyone can enter. "

Alton listened to Li Feng's words and looked at the text in the historical materials, nodding his head.

He also recognized a few characters in the ancient troll language sporadically, and what Li Fenggang said did not conflict with the characters he knew.

"If that's the case, does that mean that the first floor of the Theater of Sadness, which is lit with lights, has already had... that special performance?

In other words, someone has already received the invitation and entered? "

Alton asked the question that concerned him most.

When Li Feng heard this, he showed an expression of hesitation without any trace.

In fact, Alton's guess is correct, and this is also recorded in the historical data of the Floating Island.

But as he was the one who had received the invitation and had entered the theater and passed the first floor, Li Feng did not intend to inform Alton in such detail.

At that moment, Li Feng just took another piece of paper, handed it to Alton, and shook his head slightly:

“The explanation for lighting up the lights, I guess, is on this page.

But there are too many words on this page that I can't understand, and I'm sorry, but I can't explain them either. "

"No, you are too kind. You have helped us a lot."

After hearing what Li Feng said, Alton hurriedly replied.

Li Feng nodded and said no more.

His lies, which were truthful, detailed, and sincere, had already deceived Alton.

…

The setting sun in the evening shone like gold into the garden of Storm's End, coating the blooming roses with a golden edge.

Shia, who was still in the form of a black cat, was walking side by side with Li Feng. Because of what happened just now, she was too embarrassed to lean on Li Feng's arm anymore.

"You just said that you studied under Mr. Hai, is that true?"

Shia asked curiously.

After translating historical materials just now, Alton curiously asked Li Feng how he learned the ancient troll language at such a young age.

Li Feng replied that it was because he had studied with a teacher when he was a child.

But the teacher did not mention his name and only asked others to call him Mr. Hai.

Of course, these words were all used by Li Feng to deceive Alton.

In order to avoid being discovered, Li Feng did not give the made-up teacher a name, only a mysterious code name.

As a result, Alton couldn't find out even if he wanted to.

"You lied to them. What I told you is the truth."

Li Feng replied lightly.

Shia:? ? ?

‘Is that what you’re telling me the truth? How can it be? ’

Sia now feels even more baffled.

Because Li Feng told her that he didn't know how he knew the ancient troll language, he just learned it out of thin air.

In Sia's opinion, this was just teasing her.

Resisting the urge to roll her eyes, Sia asked back to the business:

"Now you have read the historical materials of Floating Island as you wished, but the historical materials don't seem to say how to enter the second floor of the theater?"

Sia listened to every word of the discussion between Li Feng and Alton just now.

But alas, she heard no useful information for either of them.

This made Xia feel discouraged for a time.

"Why didn't you write it?"

Li Feng smiled when he heard this, wondering why this cat was a little silly today.

Of course he couldn't reveal such important information to Alton.

"What...what?"

Hearing Li Feng's words, Xia immediately reacted in shock.

She was not shocked by Li Feng's thoughtfulness, but she was shocked by his understanding of the ancient troll language.

"Do you know all the ancient troll language on it?"

Li Feng smiled and said nothing.

Unlike Sia and Alton, he learned the language bit by bit.

What the system gives is a plenary meeting once you understand it. There is no concept of only recognizing half or a few words.

"Then...does it say how to enter the second floor?"

Xia was used to Li Feng's knowledge and style of doing things. He didn't want to talk, and it was useless to ask more.

So at the moment, Xia stopped struggling and only asked about the business.

"Of course, the historical records of the troll are still very comprehensive."

Li Feng nodded, he glanced at the side and continued to say to Xia:

"But now, you have to go back and become a human first. Disappearing for too long will arouse suspicion."

After hearing this, Xia raised her cat head and looked at the sunset.

Indeed, she disappeared for too long today as a cat, and Shirley was anxious because she couldn't find her anywhere.

Anyway, Li Feng already had the answer, so she didn't need to rush to know the answer.

With this in mind, Xia said hello to Li Feng and ran towards her residence.

Looking at the disappearing back, Li Feng gradually slowed down.

He used the excuse to send Xia away because there was an apprentice of the Violet Eye following him since he left the Bachelor's Tower.

‘Violet Eye…apprentice…’

Li Feng thought of something, but he was not sure.

But no matter what, since this apprentice wanted to find him, he would meet him first.

Li Feng thought so.

On the other side, Qi Heng was following Li Feng from a distance.

In order to continue to befriend the Red Falcon and to get more information about the notes and the devil for the official, he was thinking about how to chat with Li Feng.
