The joy of defeating the Balrog to obtain the Witcher's sword caps off the first week of Dead Leaf Moon. On the second day, that is, Monday, Xia De had to face the troublesome things in his hands again.
The doctor came early, and Xia De let him go directly behind the dark door in the basement. Before breakfast, Xia De sent a letter to the librarian "Red Moon Witch" Miss Dennist through the poem manuscript in his hand, explaining that he had obtained the [Yellow Moon] spirit rune.
The reply letter was sent back just after Shade had breakfast, so after simple preparations, Shade passed the undead ceremony with four chairs, and was projected from Saint Teresa Square to the academy library in the extreme north. middle.
When Shad appeared, the two students of St. Byrence who assisted in the ceremony left immediately. Xia De turned his head to look at their backs, and one of them actually had a small bat pattern floating above his head, which meant that he was also a vampire. .
"The academy actually recruits vampires as students?"
He curiously asked the sorceress with thirteen rings who was sitting on the couch. The two are now in the open space in the middle of the quiet and empty library. There is a star map, and a metal spherical astrologer is hung.
The astrologer, which Shad couldn't understand at all, was spinning slowly, and the dots of light left traces on the ceiling.
Probably because it was still early, so there were not many footsteps in the library. Even hard-working ring warlocks probably won't go to the academy library to study after seven o'clock in the morning.
"Yes, there is a vampire clan living in Saint Byrons."
The red-haired sorceress was still the same. On the coffee table in front of her was a stack of books that were not neatly stacked. Judging from the style, it seemed that they were all the textbook "Basic Potions" that Shade had received.
"I'm very glad that you can take the initiative to contact me about the Silver Moon Library, Mr. Hamilton. I have read your letter, and you said that you have obtained the Yellow Moon Spirit Rune?"
"Yes."
Saying that, Xia De in the projection state called out the ring of life behind him.
"Oh, the third ring? And the third ring, there are already two spirit runes?"
Miss Denist asked in surprise, but didn't say much after thinking about it:
"In this case, you can consider entering the third grade after the exam at the end of the year. The progress is really fast."
The projected state can still use thaumaturgy, as demonstrated by the professors who came to Shade's house. So, after confirming that it was indeed the Huang Yueling rune, Miss Daniste once again took out the black-bound book that could help her find the "Silver Moon Library".
Laying this book on his lap, the core spirit rune "Red Moon" in the center of the thirteen-ring warlock's life ring casts aura, and on the life ring behind Xia De, the core spirit rune "Silver Moon" and the three-ring spirit rune "Yellow Moon" also casts aura together.
On the originally blank page, blurred traces gradually appeared as the aura of brass and gold illuminated it. But just like last time, the contents of the book are still not fully revealed.
"It seems that the simple spirit runes are still not enough, and the core spirit runes are still needed."
Miss librarian shook her head regretfully:
"The traces that appeared now are indeed clearer than last time, but they are still unrecognizable."
"Speaking of which, when will Serkses' Guiding Moon reach Tobesk?"
Xia De couldn't help asking.
"Soon, at the end of this month or the beginning of next month, I will trouble you to collect traces of his aura."
Miss Dennister closed the black-shell book, then looked up at the ring of life behind Shade, which was gradually hidden in the steam mist:
"Silver moon and yellow moon, it's really interesting. If you can get the [Red Moon] spirit rune again, then you are eligible to learn the thirteenth ring that evolved from the spell of the Fifth Epoch witch at the time of the thirteenth ring." Ring thaumaturgy."
"[Moon Goddess' Forgiveness]. It is required to have the spirit rune of March, and it can only be [Yellow Moon], [Red Moon] and [Silver Moon]. Similar concepts are not acceptable, and at least one moon in March is the core Spirit rune. This is the thirteen-ring thaumaturgy unique to St. Byrence, left by the first librarian of the college, and it is said that the prototype is the power of the fourth era or earlier."
"The first administrator..."
The image of Miss Olan Nord jumped into Shade's mind, embracing her in the past, as if it happened yesterday...yesterday was Sunday, so it really happened yesterday morning.
In order to keep himself from thinking wildly, Xia De hastily ended the topic:
"Oh, is there any progress in investigating the appearance of Miss Mana Filianna in Tobesk? Everyone in our team is very curious."
"The ring magicians of the whole world will be curious, but unfortunately there is nothing left in the local area
The traces, the most valuable clues at present, are actually the memories of the witnesses at that time. "
Speaking of this incident, Miss Daniste also had some headaches:
"Recently, I've been looking through the library's materials from the previous era, hoping to find some clues. But Mr. Hamilton, the library is stacked with old parchment scrolls, which may be enough to pave the way from here to your house. Library Administrators all have this kind of 'good habit', no matter what kind of documents, as long as they enter the library, they will not be thrown away even if they are worthless."
"That's it... This reminds me of the fallen old god, the guardian of the library [Grey Robe Sage]."
Xia De pretended to say casually;
"I remember that the god's magic arts seem to be related to the library."
"Yes, and the magic of the old gods is now called incantation, don't make a mistake about that."
Miss Daniste said very rigorously, and she also knew what Shade meant:
"However, there are not many statues and powerful items left by this god. It is not easy to learn the spells corresponding to this god. Speaking of which, this great man also helped St. In the era when the library was first built, his believers followed the oracle and completed the original structure of the library. Now I can wave my hand and take the right book from any shelf. The power of this library and the position of administrator has given me It is related to power, and this power comes from the underlying ritual structure of the library."
"The founders of the academy are familiar with the sect of the great man?"
"I don't know about this~www.mtlnovel.com~ But it is said that it is because the first generation of administrators once completed the task of the great [Grey Robe Sage], which is recorded in Zarath's literature. "
It seems that the mission that Shade is going through in 3024 of the Fifth Epoch directly determines the appearance of the library he is currently in. The past and the present are connected again. In the era when [Father of the Infinite Tree] has gone, Shad will continue to use his power to connect the orderly but incoherent time.
【The Father of the Infinite Tree is with you. 】
"She" whispered in Xia De's ear.
In the secluded library, Xia De narrowed his eyes, while Miss Dennist picked up her teacup and was wondering what she was thinking. There is no wind here, only an unexplained and just right light, shining on every inch of the rune-carved floor and every old bookshelf full of books.
Inspiration emerged, and Xia De suddenly thought that maybe in the last era thousands of years ago, Miss Fei Lianna, Miss Olan Nord and the girl Fiona with the red dragon tail also stood here and once Recalling Shad here is just like Shad recalling them now.
Same space, different time. Xia De even wants to reach out his hand to touch the air in front of him at this moment, because the people who have passed away really existed here.
"Maybe they were also at the other end of time, imagining that I would appear here a thousand years later, sitting on the sofa and looking back at their positions."
Xia De thought in his heart.
[Time and space are dealt with here. 】
"so what?"
[So, let’s continue the stories that have already happened. 】
