Lord of the Witches

The first floor of the library has nearly two thousand sectors.

The sectors are connected to each other by knowledge secret paths. Only through the secret paths can visitors enter other sectors.

At this moment, three figures were walking on the dense path of darkness and nothingness.

The real Rose finally won the battle with the bold and unrestrained version of Rose Madeleine, and got Alice No. 5 as her assistant. The bold version of Rose stayed in the first sector, and may have fully entered the reading mode and started to write for herself. Ascension prepares you for God and accumulates vast amounts of knowledge.

Because Alice No. 5 was separated from the [Library First Sector Catalog], her external form was unchanged, but she was a weird and cute mechanical girl with long gray-green hair, wearing a gorgeous dress and a top hat. .

Tang Qi walked at the end, looking to both sides from time to time. Every time he took a step, various light portals representing different temptations would appear.

These curses and temptations had no effect on Tang Qi.

Unexpectedly, Alice No. 5 withstood it easily.

As for Rose, she had no problem.

Soon the three of them saw a bright light in front of them and stepped into it together.

You have passed the secret path. Welcome, honest beings who pursue knowledge. This is the second sector.

After hearing the familiar voice, Tang Qi and the three of them felt like they were stepping on real ground.

In front of him is another huge portal.

The classic and solemn red and black color scheme is inlaid with weird things such as shells, stones, wood chips, silk fabrics, etc., and is also engraved with a large number of complicated and obscure symbols and lines.

There is a set of old tables and chairs in front of the entrance. There are tea cups, vases and a typewriter on the table.

When the three people arrived, the sound of click, click, click immediately began to echo in their ears, which had a wonderful rhythm.

The person operating the typewriter was an old lady with a very good temperament and a distinctly human race.

With Lonely Bond, a leader who likes to delay visitors and is not very conscientious, as a counterexample, Tang Qi cast Omniscient directly on the old lady without any delay.

Grandma Ajani: A special [leader], she actually doesn't like to be disturbed. She thinks herself and the imagination in her mind are extremely interesting, so she doesn't need friends. She is addicted to her own world. If you want her to accompany you personally and introduce everything about the second sector, the visitor must give an interesting enough story.

If not, visitors would just get a strict, formal map.

Shua

As soon as this information flowed through Tang Qi's mind, an extremely detailed, neat and rigorous huge map suddenly appeared in front of the three of them.

Grandma Adjani, who gave the map, didn't even raise her head. She was still addicted to her fantasy story, but the huge door behind her began to open on its own.

The next moment, a familiar scene appeared in the eyes of Tang Qi, Rose and Alice No. 5.

Bookshelves, endless huge bookshelves neatly arranged.

Although Granny Adjani was obsessed with herself, she still paid a negligible amount of attention to look at the three new visitors.

If they can each tell an interesting story, it's not like they can't lead it themselves. This is her idea.

However, what Grandma Adjani saw was a scene she had never imagined:

The mature and intellectual beauty among the three suddenly opened her mouth and uttered a strange sentence.

There is... more than one Rose Madeleine in this world.

The scene that happened in the first sector was reborn.

In the void in front of the portal, another Rose Madeleine slowly transformed from an outline into a real body.

After all, this is number three.

As soon as she was summoned, she showed a completely different aura from the first two. Her face was immediately flushed, and her eyes seemed to be filled with crystal water. She became hazy and lazy, and she clearly did not drink. , but a strong smell of alcohol emanated from her body.

Dear Don.

The title that almost became a mantra came out of Xin Rose's mouth, and then she saw her stumbling towards Tang Qi.

The soft body smelling of alcohol entered Tang Qi's arms. His hands were very irregular. In front of the other Rose, he hugged Tang Qi tightly and kept groping.

His head rested on Tang Qi's shoulder, hot air gushed out, and words came out of his mouth from time to time that made True Rose couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth.

That annoying, verbose little boy seems to have grown up.

Come, take sister back to the manor.

You know the way to Madeleine Manor. My bed is big, soft and comfortable. Do you want to experience it... mmmm?

Before the third Rose could say more, the real Rose had to step forward to separate the two of them and cover her mouth.

Tang Qi had a smile that couldn't be concealed, and he recognized it.

This third one is clearly a drunken version of Rose Madeleine.

Judging from her movements and words, she is even more bold and unrestrained than the second Rose, and she feels like she has completely released herself.

In order to prevent her drunk self from doing more things that would ruin her image, Rose directly dragged her towards Granny Adjani, thrust her other self into her, and then made a request:

Open the secret path, we are going to the third sector.

The beautiful old woman was stuffed with a big beauty, and her meticulously combed silver hair trembled because of her sudden smile.

She originally needed an interesting story to be a responsible leader, but after accepting the third Rose Madeleine, there was no trace of anger on her face after being disturbed, and she responded quickly.

good.

After the words fell, the secret path leading to the third sector opened, including the three people.

Before stepping onto the secret path, Tang Qi looked at Granny Adjani who was helping Rose walk into the sector, and at the same time heard a few vague voices.

Young and beautiful visitor, do you have any new, interesting and exciting stories to share with your mother-in-law?

Of course, I am Rose Madeleine

belch!

…

Library, Sector 32.

The door that isolates visitors seems to be made purely of animal limbs, such as the head of a tiger, the palm of a bear, the wings of an eagle, the fangs of a wolf, etc., all appearing as inlays on the door.

The leader in front of the portal is a giant deer whose head and limbs are completely separated.

It was looking at the three new visitors in front of it with doubtful eyes, as well as the birth of the fourth visitor.

Tang Qi and Alice were also watching Rose's summons.

The two of them have watched it dozens of times, but they still don't want to miss it next time. Every time they feel it is extremely magical and full of surprises.

Especially Tang Qi, even though he had heard the words Dear Don dozens of times, every time, Rose Madeleine would say it in a new tone, which was very interesting.

In the past thirty sectors, Tang Qi also witnessed the birth of thirty completely different new Roses.

From the initial bold and unrestrained version, to the later drunk version, there are more such as foul-talking version, timid version, senior version, completely honest version, and cold version , Adventure-loving Edition...it has everything, which is breathtaking.

Life is complex, and intelligent races like humans are especially complex. The same person can have multiple selves.

Tang Qi knew this, but he still couldn't help but be surprised when he actually saw it.

Soon, his surprise continued.

Dear Don, myself, and lovely Alice.

Tsk

Just as this familiar voice sounded in Tang Qi's ears, he saw the birth of a new Rose Madeleine.

Unlike some roses in the past, the new roses just appeared, but they did not come towards Tang Qi.

Instead, she frowned and looked at her outfit. The long skirt, hat, and glasses all showed the charm of a mature and intellectual beauty.

However, she was very dissatisfied with herself and took action directly. She first took off her hat, glasses and some gorgeous accessories and threw them away. Then she began to tear her long skirt. Soon she revealed a pair of long snow-white legs, and the long skirt was torn by her. A dashing, close-fitting skirt.

The new Rose not only loves this cheerful dress, but her personality is also different from most Roses.

She didn't walk towards Tang Qi or herself, she just whistled at the three of them, and immediately jumped on the back of the separated giant deer. Without any unnecessary nonsense, she went directly to the sector. Go inside.

Tang Qi and the other three looked at her back in surprise.

Rose Madeline's own eyes were suddenly filled with admiration.

Obviously, Rose herself did not expect that there would be such a version of herself.

How charming.

In front of Tang Qi and Alice, Rose praised herself.

Then they turned around and stepped into the secret path summoned in advance by the leader of the giant deer. The three of them continued to the next sector.

In the dense path of darkness and nothingness, three figures moved forward.

Tang Qi also walked through this secret path dozens of times.

Only this time, Tang Qi seemed to sense something, his brows began to wrinkle, his expression became solemn, and across Alice, Tang Qi's eyes fell on Rose.

Although he was not watching with omniscience, Tang Qi could still tell that Rose was in a strange state of exhaustion at this time.

Not only her body, but her soul breath also became low, and seemed to be losing its activity.

Tang Qi quickly realized that Rose's summoning of reflection could not be done at will.

Every time she was summoned, she would pay a price.

The price seemed to be paid by Rose's soul.

After realizing this, Tang Qi didn't immediately stop Rose. He actually tried many times.

But the result every time, whether it is Rose herself or the new Rose who is summoned, the answer is the same, that is, rejection.

The last time he tried to dissuade her, Tang Qi happened to meet the foul-mouthed version of Rose. The real Rose didn't say anything, so she sneered at Tang Qi first.

After silently considering for a few seconds, when the three of them arrived in front of a new sector, Tang Qi quietly turned on the omniscience towards Rose.

At the same time, he made a decision in his heart. If he found that there was an unavoidable trap ahead of this path, or it would cause irreversible harm to Rose, Tang Qi would forcefully stop Rose.

Originally, as a special great scholar and a disciple of the ancient observer, Rose Madeleine was difficult to spy on.

Even gods cannot do it easily.

But it was impossible for Rose to be on guard against Tang Qi. Almost immediately, a dark light exploded in Tang Qi's eyes, and a large number of information fragments burst into his mind.

Most of them contained many secrets deep in Rose's heart, but Tang Qi directly excluded them without prying at them. This was out of respect for his close friends.

What Tang Qi filtered out was the information on Rose's path to becoming a god, especially her current state.

Divine Entity: Rose Madeleine.

She is in a deep negative state. Her body, mind, self, and soul are all severely overdrawn. This is caused by summoning the 'reflection'. Although the ancient observer opened a channel for this disciple, The energy required for the reflection to be generated in the mysterious infinity must be paid by Rose Madeleine.”

This state is reversible. You just need to delay the summoning and wait for a while to recover on its own.

If she doesn't take a break, Rose Madeleine will completely overdraw herself, and after reaching a certain critical point, she will be completely annihilated in the boundless mystery.

The last fragment made Tang Qi raise his eyebrows, and the solemn expression on his face became even more serious.

call

In the new sector, Tang Qi and the others appeared from the light.

This time there was a special situation. There were not only three of them visitors in front of the portal, but also several other new visitors.

Although it is the first time, it is not surprising. The library has a large number of readers in The Expanse Mystery, and the number of visitors in each sector is immeasurable.

It makes perfect sense to meet other visitors by chance.

Tang Qi neither looked at these new visitors, nor did he have time to clearly see the sector portal ahead and the usual leader in front of the portal.

He directly stretched out his palm to hold Rose. When Rose looked back in confusion, Tang Qi said in an unquestionable tone:

Delay the summoning. We will stay in the new sector for a while. I will accompany you.

Rose is known as the smartest woman in the Federation. She almost instantly guessed what Tang Qi sensed and also knew what Tang Qi was thinking.

Originally, she planned to refuse because she felt that she could sustain a few more summonses and did not want to slow down the ascension plan.

But as Tang Qi's last words penetrated into her ears, she was completely unable to say any words of rejection.

She nodded involuntarily, and the negative state in her body seemed to have slowed down. She was about to tell her the long list of books she wanted to borrow.

Suddenly at this moment, she suddenly noticed that Tang Qi's expression changed.

His eyes suddenly froze as if he had seen something horrible.

His already solemn expression was now almost cold.

Don's not looking at me, he's looking at the side...

Rose instantly realized that the source of Tang Qi's sudden reaction was not her, but the three of them, and several other new visitors who arrived in the 33rd sector almost together with them.

Rose tried her best to control herself not to look at the new visitors. Although she was in a deep negative state, after being reminded by Tang Qi's reaction, her keen sense finally felt something. It was an extremely terrifying thing that made her soul I shuddered at it and immediately wanted to turn around and escape.

Deep in her heart, Tang Qi's doubtful voice suddenly sounded.

Rose, how many times has the library been invaded?

ps: The daily life has come to an end, and we have entered a new big event. Please vote for me, because my chrysanthemum is being stared at.
