Reborn as a Mad Dog from a Noble Family
Chapter 17 Exclusive Library
The sun was rising in the early morning. When the first ray of sunlight passed through the gap in the curtains and fell on the pure white pillow, the boy who was sleeping with it slowly opened his eyes.
A dreamless night.
This is the second day that Mo Xie has come to this strange world. His mental state is recovering slowly as his spiritual world has been initially built.
Although the maid promised to help him answer some of his questions, she was always hesitant about the original body and could not tell him any useful information. He also tried to contact other servants, but they all had the same reaction. Arthurs and Euphemia, who had promised to visit him, seemed to have evaporated and were nowhere to be seen for the whole day.
So through the portrait, the textbooks on the bookshelf and his own perception, he roughly estimated that the body was about thirteen or fourteen years old.
It's not too late.
His intuition told him that this world was also unstable. In order to survive and achieve his goals, he had to grow.
Mo Xie sat up cross-legged, closed his eyes, let his arms hang naturally, and his breathing gradually became calmer.
Meditation, by relaxing the body and mind, allows you to enter a state similar to sleep, temporarily reducing your perception of the outside world to strengthen your mental concentration.
Let's take an example. A flexible rope is used to tie up objects of various sizes. At first, it was easy, and the objects were small, so it could be done without any effort. But as the objects became larger, the rope gradually felt weak and found that its length was not enough. At this time, someone told it a way to challenge its own limits every day and keep stretching its body. Don't worry about breaking it, because time will heal your wounds.
This is not a difficult task. After all, meditation is something that everyone can master. It is the most basic way to improve mental strength. In his previous life, Mo Xie had already mastered the technique of meditation to perfection, and found that the effect of meditation after waking up and before going to sleep was most obvious.
——Gurgle.
Also, when you are physically exhausted, you will exit this state early.
Mo Xie opened his eyes, was silent for a moment, then dressed neatly like yesterday and planned to go to the restaurant to take a look.
He pushed open the door, and a thin figure immediately came up with a plate in his hand, and whispered, "Master Mo Xie, this is your breakfast."
Mo Xie looked at the furry head in front of him and stopped closing the door. "I want to eat in the restaurant."
"No, I can't go to the restaurant. The Marquis is in a meeting..." As she said this, Meimi's body trembled slightly, and she didn't dare to look up and meet his gaze.
"They're having a meeting in the restaurant?"
"No, in the conference room on the same floor."
Mo Xie found it a little funny. What kind of unreasonable request was this?
Someone must have asked her to convey this, otherwise she wouldn't have the courage to say something that could be considered an order to her master.
"Okay." Mo Xie paused after taking the plate and asked, "So is there any place open during their meeting?" Not the bedroom or the courtyard, but a more meaningful place where he was allowed to pass.
Meimi breathed a sigh of relief, clasping her hands in front of her, her dark brown eyes moving left and right as if she was thinking rapidly. "Library. You have a library on the first basement floor. There is a sign on the door and a plaque with your name on it. If I remember correctly, the key should be in the desk drawer."
Oh? Moshe looked at Meimi calmly, his eyes tracing her trembling outline.
Meimi shrank her neck like a short ostrich. "Do you have anything else to tell me?"
"Am I a person who likes reading?" Mo Xie knew that he asked a strange question.
"It should be... yes." Meimi pursed her lips and said hesitantly, "Because you always bring a book with you when you go out alone."
"Okay, I got it." Before closing the door, Mo Xie picked up the glass of room temperature lemonade with one hand, shook it, and said to her, "Thank you."
Returning to the room, he opened the desk drawer and found a key inside.
The simple-looking key lay alone in the corner, looking inconspicuous at first glance. Mo Xie used the thin chain he had taken off the front of his clothes yesterday to make a simple ring chain that would not loosen easily, strung the key on it, and then put it in his pocket.
When he was done, he took a bite of his sandwich.
Although the texture and taste were good, it was not as good as the one made by the trainee chef Bellion, he thought so in his heart.
Breakfast was quickly finished, leaving only a set of clean dishes waiting for Meimi to take away.
Mo Xie had basically figured out the structure of the castle's main tower. He went down the spiral staircase to the first floor. At the end of the passage to the side dish room, there was a door leading to the underground.
The number of servants he saw along the way was half that of yesterday. Each of them stood straight with their eyes lowered. Even the rise and fall of their breathing was not obvious. They were like sculptures, completely unconcerned about his passing.
There was no one in the pantry, and the sound of metal colliding could be heard from the kitchen from time to time. The waiters delivered the dishes quickly, and the maids put the dishes on the dining carts with gloves and pushed them into the conference room. A work chain was operating in an orderly manner.
Mo Xie opened the door, lit the lamp, and walked down the dark stairs. After walking about ten meters, he arrived at the dimly lit underground floor.
Just as Meimi had said, the door of the library was engraved with the family crest and had a plaque with the name on it.
Moshe Mackintosh, this was the first time he saw his full name. He didn't know why, but this surname gave him a strange yet familiar feeling.
However, this abnormality only lasted for a few seconds and soon disappeared without a trace, as if nothing had happened.
Moshe tried inserting the key and turning it right twice. With luck, the door of the library opened with a "click".
The dry air mixed with dust and pulp rushed towards him, making his throat itchy. He couldn't help coughing a few times and reached out to feel the wall.
He didn't know whether the lamp was broken or there was no lamp at all, the library was pitch black. He could only hold the burning lamp in front of him and pay attention to his steps as he moved forward.
This is indeed a small library, with a total of ten bookshelves, and labels indicating the types of books are hung on the sides of the shelves.
Medicine, biology, mysticism, alchemy, language, history...
Mo Xie stopped in front of the geography bookshelf, glanced around slowly, then stood on tiptoe and took down the book he wanted with some difficulty.
Because there were no tables and chairs, he had to sit against the wall, put down the lamp, and read in the dim light.
Opening the cover, two neatly folded maps were spread out. There were no legends on the four corners of the map, but the delicate and exquisite drawing perfectly distinguished the various terrains, and the characters filled the gaps densely, making the whole map look substantial and well-structured.
Mo Xie didn't recognize these strange characters when he first arrived. It was after flipping through the book called "Warcraft Illustrated Complete Edition" on the table that he suddenly absorbed knowledge that didn't belong to him, just like having a new mother tongue. But now the memory in his brain is not synchronized, so he needs to slow down and read word by word.
There are five major plates in this world. The western Shengzhou and Guzhou are collectively called the Western Continent, and the eastern Cangzhou and Yuezhou are collectively called the Eastern Continent. Sandwiched between them, with a winding outline that resembles a ribbon is Haizhou, also known as the "Middle Land".
Regarding these three forces, the book records an interesting thing:
The Western Continent and the Eastern Continent both believed that their own people had discovered the "Middle Land", and launched several transoceanic wars over the issue of ownership. After a magic missile destroyed the Colossus ruins on the Sea Island, and a sword energy flattened the legendary spire mountain that hosted the gods, the natives of the Sea Island finally couldn't stand it anymore and summoned the deep-sea giant "Zandra" with secret magic.
Zandra is a legendary giant beast raised by the God of Creation. One of its breaths or roars is enough to destroy a country, not to mention how many products of civilization will be destroyed when it steps on land and its ten tentacle-like tails are freed, combined with its indestructible hardened skin and its twisted and hideous muscles.
The natives used neither magic nor divine power, but a kind of secret language similar to witchcraft. They tried their best to control Zandra's movements, making him stand in the middle of the sea like a giant statue, and then drove seabirds to pass messages to both sides, which roughly meant:
This sacred land does not belong to any of you. If you barbarians continue to wage war, we will untie the beasts and wait for our destruction together!
At that time, no one had the power to contend with it. This deterrence was both direct and effective. The Western Continent and the Eastern Continent quickly stopped sending troops and sent envoys to sign a peace treaty.
In the year 620 of Genesis Renekton, there was an unnamed island in the sea.
Western Continent, Holy Island, Kingdom of Renekton, Lionel McIntosh.
East Continent, Cangzhou, the ancient country of China, Li Lingfeng.
Mo Xie's eyes fell on the introductions of the two messengers.
Obviously, the envoys from the Western Continent are the ancestors of this body. Renekton is the country with the largest territory in the Holy Continent, with an extremely wide border that even extends to the Ancient Continent. In other words, Renekton is the overlord of the Western Continent. Why can the original McIntosh family represent the Renekton royal family in foreign negotiations? The answer to this question is hidden in history books.
As for the other one, the ancient country of China... could there be such a coincidence? Could it be that this is not a different world, but a parallel world?
Just as Mo Xie was lost in thought, the light source suddenly disappeared.
"Huh..." It just so happened that the air in the library was not circulating, and the breathing rate of this body was gradually increasing. It was time to return to the ground.
He folded the map and put it in his pocket, then slowly stood up holding the still warm lamp, dusted himself off, and walked into the passage.
Next time I come, I will bring cleaning tools to clean this place, find a way to install a magic lamp, and buy a set of chairs. Thinking of this, Mo Xie locked the door of the library.
--Ding.
The metal nameplate shook slightly, making a crisp sound, and Mo Xie couldn't help but take a closer look at it.
Nothing happened.
Walking up one floor, the view in front of him suddenly opened up. The soft and fresh air penetrated his nostrils, and his restless heart gradually calmed down.
Let's take another walk in the courtyard.
