Accidentally reincarnated into a magic book

Chapter 70 The Mystery of Magic

Ayes followed Su Le into the secret room. It was a narrow secret room built between the city lord's office and the next room. If one looked at it from the corridor outside, it would be impossible to imagine such a room. .

Although the room is not big, the four walls are covered with bookshelves, and densely packed magic books are stacked on the bookshelves. Many books are scattered randomly on the floor and in the corners of the room.

There are no windows in the room, but stones similar to pyroxene are installed at the four corners, and those stones emit light silently, bringing a dim yellow light to the cabin.

"Master Magic Book, what is this... place? Cough cough..."

Ayes looked up at the zenith, but just as he stepped into the room, he stepped on the books on the floor, immediately kicking up dust in the room.

He covered his mouth and nose and continued walking, but there were too many books in the room, all over the floor, Ayes took two steps cautiously, but accidentally stepped on the cover of the book, and slipped to the ground with a rub.

Ays sat on the ground in a daze, scratching his head in pain: "It hurts, it hurts, what did I step on?"

Ayes put his hands on the ground, and he didn't know what button he pressed hidden under the pile of books.

All I heard was the gears snapping together, the door that had been wide open slowly closed, and when the door closed, the bookshelves outside probably returned to their original positions.

"W-what should we do! Master Magic Book!"

"Don't be afraid, it's just a switch."

Su Le comforted Ays. After all, this is a secret room for books. In terms of functionality, it should not be possible to make some switches that cannot be exited after entering.

"There's a lot of dust in here and it looks like it hasn't been used for a long time.

With the dim light of pyroxene, Su Le began to scan the pile of books.

"By the way, does the city lord know magic?" Su Le asked.

"Magic? I don't know much about it." Ayes shook his head, "I just heard that the city lord was an adventurer in the past, so I don't know if he knows magic."

In this way, there is also the possibility that the city lord is a magician. There are such a large number of books stored, and judging from the text on the cover, they are all magic-related things.

"Speaking of which, can I learn magic through reading?"

If Su Le can learn magic through reading, these books may be of some value to him.

【Unable to learn in a human way. 】

That's right, after all, he is a magic book, and he doesn't have a human body. It's like practicing martial arts in martial arts novels, so that the inside can go through the eight meridians. Since Su Le doesn't have a human body, he can't do it in the way of ordinary people. Use magic.

However, with the help of God Knowing adults, Su Le only needs to read the name of the magic that he wants to use in his heart, which is much more powerful than ordinary people.

That being the case, there is no need for him to chase after the end.

Originally, Su Le wanted to take some books back to study, but now it seems that he really forgot about it.

"Ayes, turn over the book on the ground, there should be a mechanism to open the door underneath."

After finishing the order, Su Le began to search for a relatively remote corner. What he was looking for was a brochure similar to his current form.

After searching carefully, I finally found a booklet that resembled a notebook in the corner of the room. The paper was yellowed, with graphics I had never seen before, and the same text. The text I had never seen before, even if I used the translation ability I can't understand what it is either.

Coincidentally, even Su Le couldn't understand such a book, and presumably others couldn't understand it, so it was exactly what he wanted.

"Storage... no, forget it."

I wanted to use the storage function to put the booklet in the warehouse, but thinking of the possibility of being accidentally injured by little Alifia, I decided to put it in Ayes' pocket.

"Ays, have you found the mechanism?" Su Le returned to Ays with the pamphlet, only to see Ays standing there dumbfounded.

Pointing to the ground, the boy said, "Master Magic Book...this...this thing..."

Su Le followed the ground pointed by Ayes and looked at the ground, there seemed to be some pattern there.

In order to find the switch hidden under the books, Ayes tried to sweep away the books on the ground, but he didn’t expect that there were figures hidden on the ground blocked by the books. He continued to sweep away the surrounding books, and a formation covering the entire floor of the room appeared. out.

——That's right, that's a magic circle, a black unnamed magic circle, with complicated patterns intertwined with each other, and a wide-open eye is outlined in the center of the magic circle.

"Wait a minute, I seem to have seen this graphic somewhere."

Su Le quickly took out the booklet that was going to be put in Ayes's pocket, and as expected, the picture of the eye was recorded in the booklet.

"It's scary." Ayes crossed his arms and hugged his body. For some reason, just seeing that figure made his hair stand on end and tremble.

It is indeed a bit strange, whether it is this room or the formation on the ground.

"If we're afraid, let's get Hina out of here. Have you found the mechanism?"

"Yes, it is."

Ayes pointed behind him.There is a handle protruding from the ground near the place where he fell, probably accidentally touched it when he fell just now.

"Open them first."

Su Le flew back to Ais's pocket and prepared to leave with the boy.

Ayes walked towards the hinge that opened the door, and before he bent down and touched the mechanism with his hand, a slight "click" sound came through the wall.

"do not move……"

Su Le reminded Ayes vigilantly in a low voice.

Ayes also heard that voice, and if he heard it correctly, it was the sound of the office door being opened.

"Someone has entered the office."

Su Le told Ayes the fact, and the little boy immediately covered his mouth in fright.

Along with the sound of the door opening, multiple footsteps entered the office.

"So, what is it that is so eager to find me?"

The voice of a middle-aged man, that voice was tired and sounded very troubled.

"It's the city lord..." Ays whispered to Su Le.

"Kador, do you know what is going on in the city now? Those monsters are appearing everywhere, and the scope of the disaster is getting bigger and bigger. If this continues, this border city will not be safe!"

It was another man who questioned the city lord, and Ayes seemed to recognize the owner of the voice. His face was livid, and he said tremblingly, "Yes...it's the general guarding the camp, Lord Luke."

The name Ays mentioned seems to have been heard somewhere, if I remember correctly, it should be the man who was with Leo when he killed the big snake.

"Calm down Luke."

"Calm down, how do you tell me to calm down, you didn't let me say it on the road just now, why don't you let me say it now?"

"There were servants nearby just now, it's not good for them to hear these words."

"You are so leisurely, what about the reinforcements? The guards are busy running around. After so many days, everyone is exhausted."

"Did we hear something we shouldn't have heard..." Ayes cast his eyes on Su Le. After all, he was really shocked when he heard the words that the border city was in danger.

"Shh, now we can't get out until they leave."

Su Le comforted Ayes in a low voice, and flew to the side of the secret door, wanting to hear more of the conversation clearly.
