Soul echo

Chapter 218 Infiltrate

The lighting conditions in the library are not as good as those in the study room, and although the weather is sunny, it is still winter at least, the deposited clouds and mists drift with the wind, and the moon appears and disappears from time to time.

It was not late at night, so Lilian didn't go offline either.

Because the light was not very good, she could only use the occasional moonlight to distinguish which of the books on the dozen shelves in front of her that she could understand.

After listening to Zhong Ye's explanation, she and the audience had already understood the difficult history of that year, and couldn't help feeling that the production team was really careful enough to even make such details.

But after knowing that background, reading these books written in other languages, there is a feeling of being unclear.

"...no dictionary."

Lilian froze for a moment, then turned to look at Zhong Ye, "What?"

Zhong Ye squatted in front of a bookshelf, stroking the spines of books in front of him with his fingers.

"I read all the books, but I didn't find a dictionary in them." Zhong Ye took a light breath, "These books have been read many times, which means that readers should know these words..."

That's the problem--

That dark period lasted only a few decades, and then people gradually abandoned these characters and returned to Xilu language to inherit knowledge.

No one uses these characters at all now, because they don't even have a supporting language, they are just simple characters.

Moreover, they are all 'dead languages' now, let alone users, how to learn these languages ​​is still a problem after hundreds of years.

Lilian didn't think of this at first, but through the barrage prompt, she also noticed this doubt.

According to the information obtained from the study, the person who has learned those words and can understand these books is most likely the lord of Vienna, but where did the lord learn these words?

Standing in front of the bookshelf, Zhong Ye pondered for a moment, then put aside these doubts, and found out the part he could understand from among hundreds of books, and then took it out to read.

"Lilian, do me a favor and see what is written in those books."

Although I have already read some of them in the study room, there are all kinds of books in the study room.

Geography, history, fables, and even a few spellbooks.

Lilian readily agreed, and excitedly took a book written in Xilu from the bookshelf, flipping through the book in her hand while chatting with the barrage.

Unlike Lilian, Zhong Ye's reading speed is very fast, he will finish the book in his hand almost every 2 minutes, and then move on to the next one.

His eyeballs have evolved many times under the influence of the soul during the upgrade process. As long as the environment is not completely dark, even the faintest light can allow him to see the surrounding environment and the things in front of him clearly.

The night is not completely dark, even in the middle of the night, there is a little light.

The types of books in the library are more complicated than those in the study room. There are biographies, mage essays, and alchemy handbooks. In addition, there are many ordinary books.

It is not easy to find 'evidence' from so many books.

Just as Lilian was struggling to open the second book, Zhong Ye had already put down the No.19 book.

Although he can't read books written in other languages, it is not a problem to read these books written in Xilu.

After reading nineteen books, he suddenly discovered a problem.

——Among these books, books related to extraordinary power account for too much!

Contrary to the study room, there are more books of ordinary types in the collection of books in the study room, while in the library room, books related to extraordinary power account for a larger proportion.

Normally, this ratio is wrong.

Even if supernatural power prevails in Dan's world, people only need to exercise, and the exercise method is appropriate, to enhance their physical fitness.

However, most of the books related to extraordinary power in this library are 'spells'.

From ancient times to the present, there have been not many spell professionals, and naturally there are few books related to it—at least compared to other types.

There is too much supernatural knowledge of spells in the library. If the lord of Vienna is a mage, this is not unusual, but this lord is not a mage.

This is a little strange. He is obviously not a mage, but he has read these books more than once. Among them, the traces of reading two books of extraordinary knowledge are still recent.

Maybe this reason is far-fetched, but these alone are enough to make Zhong Ye suspicious of the lord of Vienna.

'Mage' is just one of many identities in this world, and there is nothing to hide at all.

If a lord becomes a mage, it is something worth showing off, because the profession of a mage has high requirements for intelligence, and becoming a mage means that a person's intelligence level has surpassed more than 80.00% of the world's people.

Not everyone above this standard has the opportunity to become a mage, or wants to become a mage, so there are not many mages.

Rare things are precious, even if it is a small mage apprentice, only a big chamber of commerce can afford to hire it.

These thoughts flashed through his mind, Zhong Ye raised his hand again, and took down the books from the shelf.

Time passed slowly, and soon, it was Lilian's rest time.

Putting the books in her hands back on the shelf, Lilian looked around reluctantly, took a breath, and was just about to say hello to the audience and then download the broadcast, when Zhong Ye's voice came from the side: "Let's go!" .”

The words that came to her lips were swallowed again. Lilian looked at Zhong Ye and asked in amazement: "Teacher, have you found what you want?"

"No." Zhong Ye shook his head, "I just found some clues. I plan to visit the lord of Vienna tomorrow."

……Eh?

Not only Lilian's head was full of question marks, but also a lot of questions appeared in the barrage.

Didn't they come to investigate whether the Lord of Vienna was related to that organization, and whether it was related to the hallucinogen flooding in the southeastern region of the Kingdom of Gaul?
What kind of operation is this to visit directly?
Zhong Ye is always able to do some unexpected things, but those coquettish operations he makes can always get the desired results.

I don't know what his brain is made of, but he can be so smart!

"The things I did in Annecy before are enough to make my name reach the ears of the Lord of Vienna—if he really cares about those things." Zhong Ye explained, "If nothing else, he will choose Receive me, because I am visiting him, not doing other 'crazy' things, which shows that I have good intentions for him."

"So he will relax his vigilance..." Lilian asked tentatively, "Can we get some words from him?"

"I suspect he has something to do with the abyss."

Zhong Ye lowered his eyes and shook his head, "It's not related to the flood of hallucinogens, but directly related to the abyss."

Why is it suddenly related to the abyss again?
One problem has just been solved, and more come to mind.

A series of question marks floated in front of her eyes, exactly expressing Lilian's desire to complain.

"Remember what I told you?"

Seeing Lilian's doubts, Zhong Ye pointed to the books written in other languages, "These languages ​​were born hundreds of years ago, after the emergence of the occupied areas, in order to continue the inheritance and knowledge of the West Land, which is the West Land The result of a 'confrontation' with the King of Wisdom."

Lilian opened her mouth slightly and her eyes slowly widened.

This can also be associated... No, it's better to say that these things happen to be associated together-because they are related to each other, they can be associated together.

It's just because this connection is too weak, so meager that it's hard to detect, so when they are associated together, it feels incredible.

Looking at Zhong Ye, Lilian blinked.

——This is what Zhong Ye would do!
