"He came in in a mimetic way, he also knew where his loopholes were, and he knew that we were observing him. And we let him in, observed him secretly, and transferred part of the collection."

This is a strange tacit understanding.

"Now, I'm here to visit, have you transferred the collection?"

Zion was several centimeters taller than Tamori, and asked him condescendingly.

Aya saw that Tamori's forehead was almost sweating.

He shook his head.

Zion didn't make things difficult for him, but just frightened him and found it fun, and figured out some things by the way:

"But I didn't see it in the UME file...why?"

"Because he said that this record does not need to be registered, we, like the President's record, have not been logged in the UME file, and only informed the TPC of the visit record of the suspected Jadon star."

"Tell me about these visits? When did they visit and what did they see?"

Tamori is also surprisingly, not concealing:

"Let's start with the President. When the President was six years old, his father Hussein II...was one of the founders of the TPC...brought him (Hussein III) once. Then he Became President of the United States, came here once. Both times I saw the UME-01 item of the inner layer."

The first purpose of Zion is the first negative number of the UME file.

"What about the Jadons?"

"The people from Jayton... read very miscellaneously. But it is mainly the ancient books on the outer layer and the annotations of the people inside the books..." Tamoli pointed to several bookshelves, "he has read all the books on it... he reads it very well. Fast, but we think he memorized almost everything."

"Then do you know why the Jadons came here?"

Tamoli considered the language for a while, and said with a smile:

"It should be the same as your purpose..."

"What do you think my purpose is?"

He bowed his head:

"Investigate and explore the mysteries of the Earth."

It seems... I was right.

The investigator who came to the earth, the giant of light?

But Zion's purpose is purer, and the proportion of curiosity is greater.

There is a mechanical door at the bottom of the stairs in the library, which can be released after passing the inspection.Going further down, there is a corridor that is not very brightly lit, and I can vaguely see my own shadow stretching forward into the depths of darkness.

Going straight to a wall, Tamori called the young man who asked Aya before.

"An Guo, open the door."

Anguo is the transliteration of Alcor.

"Ok."

Anguo answered yes calmly, and knocked a few times, and there was a sound of thumping on the wall.Then An Guo covered the top of the wall with his hand, which was about the golden ratio, and groped left and right. Suddenly the door opened, and bright cold light illuminated the people, until their shadows shrank in a small area under their feet.

"This was built a long time ago with the help of TPC. For a long time, it was really troublesome to modify these institutions, so they are still in use today with minor modifications."

Tamori explained.

There are many doors inside, and Tamori led a group of people directly to a room.There was a large new mechanical console in the room, on top of which stood a cubic glass box (probably not glass, but some other light-transmitting substance, or even a projection screen) measuring about three meters by three meters by three meters.

Through the glass, you can clearly see the books floating in the zero gravity.

"Is this the Complete Book of Demons?"

File Number: UME-01

Working title: The Book of Demons

"Some people also call this book the Temple of Demons. In the [-]th century, a Japanese painter who visited the library attached to Miskatonic University traveled around the world. Before committing suicide, it was also the supernormal phenomenon initially confirmed by TPC. .”

Rather than talking about a book, it is actually more like paper folded in half, but with a considerable thickness.After opening the book, everyone can see different contents.Some say they saw a portrait of Pallas Athena, others that they saw the great god Odin.The most famous record is that Ralph, one of the initiators of TPC, yelled Lord of the Flies after reading it, and then fled in a panic. According to his childhood friend, this is the same as Ralph's first atomic bomb in the world when he was a boy. It is related to the survival experience after the war.

According to the painter's will, it was donated to the Affiliated Library of Miskatonic University. After TPC personnel intervened, it was kept in a specially made dust-free weightless room. After decades of weighing and laser ranging, this The quality and shape of the book has never changed.

"Where's the president of Hezhong? What did he see?"

Zion asked Tamoli.

"He said he saw a sphinx (Sphinx) from Egypt to Greek mythology, but... no face. He later said he was wrong, just no nose. He said he I forget that the Sphinx has no nose because it is weathered."

Among the researchers of TPC, you Jianyi, who is more representative, believes that the complete book of demons means that the gods in legends and myths are real, but they have been distorted by humans into their current appearance.Hari Seldon speculates that the Book of Demons is actually a mirror, which reflects the psychology of the opener with the mythical images in the collective unconsciousness of mankind.

These are all written in the file.

"And what do you think?"

Tamoli was taken aback, and after a while, he said:

"I don't have any opinions, but I think these statements are wrong, hehe."

Seeing the way he suddenly wanted to laugh, Zion felt that this guy was also a prudish one.

"Can I see it?"

"Yes...but there is a process."

Zion's mouth almost twitched when he heard the process.

"You are very cautious."

You have to change into a dust-free and sterile space suit in the side changing room, and you can only enter it after going through several transition rooms.

Aya wasn't going to watch.After Zion entered, he usually grabbed the book of demons with his right hand, pressed the index finger of his left hand to the cover, and then pressed his thumb to the index finger, trying to uncover the pages of the book in this way to see its first page.

But can't.

Not because of the heavy protective clothing.

There always seem to be several pages between the cover and the fingers, but there seem to be only a few pages between the cover and the back of the book, and there seem to be many pages between the thumb and the back of the book. No matter how the thumb moves up and down, even Zion moves the hand One turn, the ring finger, index finger, and middle finger rubbing together are still the same.

This is not like the folding of a few sheets of paper as it appears on the surface.

So TPC calls it a mystery object...

"1, 2, 3..."

Zion tried to count, and the number of pages in the above three (thumb to cover or back, cover to back, these three cases) is the same.In the silent space, Zion could clearly hear his heart beating violently.

"I shouldn't... and couldn't count wrong."

So he tried to count the second time, it was still the same, but the number of pages of the three was different.When he counted for the third time, he couldn't count.

"How is this going--"

The more they counted, the last one opened with force.

"This……"

Zion pondered for a long time, trying to turn the pages, but closed the book directly.

Unbelievably, he opened the book of demons again, but he still only saw those two pages.

Turning the page again, he closed the book again.

After repeating it several times, I became a little annoyed by being teased.

Want to destroy, but not willing to part with this rare thing.

When he finally came out, Tamori asked him:

"Sir, what did you see?"

"I..."

Zion actually wanted to answer.

But he didn't know how to answer.

Do you want him to say that he has seen countless... giant mountain superpowers, including Tiga?Isn't this a bit strange...

—Maybe what I saw was the Kingdom of Light?Belonging to the giant of light... a certain planet?

"I have no obligation to answer you."

So he could only continue to put down this sentence with his face frozen physically and pretendingly.

Chapter 4 The Nameless Ritual Book

"I have traveled the world in search of darkness...the last place I have come to is within myself."

"The sleeping black people and their dependents in the temple, as well as the most powerful rulers of the past, they will rule this planet again one day!"

"And before that day comes, humanity must be prepared."

File Number: UME-03

Tentative name: Nameless Sacrifice Book

Author: Friedrich Wilhelm von Junz (1795-1840)

There are many versions of the Unnamed Sacrificial Book.The one Zion is caressing is the earliest German-language printed copy, most of which were burned in horror by their owners, except for this one which is still preserved in the inner section of the library.

It is also in a vacuum weightless glass box, but with a robot arm installed, it can be read remotely.

Earlier than this version, there should be the author's own manuscript, which is said to have disappeared, and TPC guessed that it was destroyed by the later owner in circulation.

Then Tamori, who was following Zion, bowed and asked tentatively:

"Different from the peculiarity of the Devil's Complete Book, the most peculiar thing about the Unnamed Sacrifice Book is the incantations depicted on it... Do you want to try it? Sir. People from the Jaden planet have also read this book. But the President and his father did not read it Book."

The Nameless Sacrificial Book has twenty chapters plus a prologue.

The prologue tells the story of the ancient world that the author has learned. Schizophrenia, wanton nonsense in his own text.

Chapters 1 to [-] are about the horrible things that the author of the book has learned among humans, and each chapter records a strange spell.

The rest of the chapters are for the notes on the previous text and speculations on various religious groups existing among human beings, so there is nothing to mention.

Zion knew that there was an ancient prophet called Xiaozhong Chiaki, so he wrote a collection of annotations for "Gatanjae and Other Horrors" called "To the Brilliant Man".The nameless sacrificial book is mentioned in this secret book.
