Light Spirit Epic Chapter 1891: Iron Maiden (9)
Chapter 191 Iron Maiden (9)
"Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" Yelling, trying to cover their eyes with their arms, and running away, hoping to get out of the sun's reach!
But it's too late, as undead they can never escape the judgment of the sun, and in broad daylight, they start to burn and disintegrate! !
The smell of ozone permeates the air. :3w.し That is the smell of evil being purified.
In just a moment, the group of crazy ghouls were incinerated into piles of ashes and fell to the ground.
There are just two ghouls left that were not killed by the sun, but were severely burned on the surface. They fled because they were afraid of the sun. Arthur didn't give them a chance. He rushed up and chopped off their heads with a few swords!
"Phew." The battle is finally over. Arthur breathed a sigh of relief.
"Should... be safe?" asked the group of scholars hiding at the top of the bookshelves on the second floor.
"It's safe, you come down." Arthur said angrily. Even though he knew that the scholars were not trained combatants, Arthur was still upset that the Brotherhood scholars were so afraid of death.
"Thank you so much. Thanks to you, we were saved." Inspector Tigen led the group of scholars downstairs, came up and said to Arthur, "So, this is the saint in the stone. Sir Silan? The appearance is slightly different from the stone statue, so I don't even recognize it."
"It would be great if you could recognize the person hidden in the stone statue from the stone statue." Arthur grumbled angrily.
"Hahahahaha, I can even joke. Lord Aslan is really different from what we imagined, and the real person is more humorous."
"Stop flattering me." Arthur glared at Tee and asked bluntly, "You put my Seraph Sword in the Brotherhood's treasure room, and only you carry the key. Give me the key so I can get my sword back."
"Of course, of course." Inspector Tigen took out a well-preserved metal key from his waist: "Originally, the key to the treasure room was only carried by me and could not be given to anyone. But since it is a holy treasure If your lord needs it, take it."
Arthur snatched the key while glancing at the book Digen was holding. The body of the book is quite thin, but its cover is covered with a thick layer of metal leather, which looks very sturdy. A book so well protected is obviously important.
"That's the book you're going to pick up on this trip?" Arthur couldn't help but ask curiously, "What kind of book is it? It's so important that a large group of you come to the library to find it, and it attracts a sneak attack from the ghouls. So many people died in the library?"
"That's it." Inspector Tigen placed the book in front of Arthur so that Arthur could see the cover of the book more clearly. He seemed to be afraid that Arthur didn't understand the mottled and worn handwriting on the cover of the book, so he explained at the same time: "This is the only book in the world, the sealed **, "New Testament. The Secret of the Holy Sword War"."
"What?!" Hearing the name "Secrets of the Holy Sword War", Arthur's whole body seemed to be electrocuted by a strong electric current. After a sudden convulsion, his face was stunned.
"What did you say? "The Secret of the Holy Sword War"?!" Arthur stared at Tigen with wide eyes: "Why do... er... books from England end up in places like France? ?!"
"England?" Inspector Tigen was puzzled: "The source of this book is not England...? The author of this book is a hermit named [Bediver Bebedilov]. This man is very mysterious, whether his nationality, identity, status, or even gender is a mystery."
"Bedyville...!" Arthur whispered. That stupid wolf is actually the author of "New Testament. The Secret Record of the Holy Sword War"...?
But this is just a parallel world after all, and it's a world 900 years after Arthur's original world. Maybe there was a man named Bedivere in this world nine hundred years ago who read the Secret Record of the Holy Sword War and wrote the New Testament based on the secret record? This is not a strange thing either.
"What's written inside?" Arthur asked curiously. Shouldn't this "New Testament. The Secret of the Holy Sword War" also mentioned [Sword of Kings] and [Holy Grail of Hope]?
"That's a good question...we don't know either." Inspector Tigen replied with an embarrassed face: "This is the third volume. It is said that this book is "New Testament. There are five books in total. Only when all five are collected can people understand it. Everything in the book is ciphertext, and without the decryption code left by the other books, it is impossible to understand the meaning."
"Huh..." Arthur hummed again. That stupid wolf still made "New Testament" so mysterious?
"It's just that I heard some rumors." Inspector Tigen saw that Arthur was not very interested, and continued to explain: "The New Testament. The Secret Record of the Holy Sword War is said to describe a huge Treasure. In other words, this whole set of books is a treasure map, guiding future generations to fetch the treasure that the hermit hid in the first place. What is the truth, we don't know. We just want to find a way to collect it first."
Arthur raised his eyebrows and said nothing. So the Myerson Brotherhood was collecting books written by that stupid wolf in Bediveville, just following a rumor. And besides the Brotherhood, there are other organizations or forces that are eyeing this set of books. This time, the secret use of ghouls to attack the library is the best proof. The fact that the force that attacked the Brotherhood was able to lead a group of crazy ghouls to attack a library in the city was powerful enough. It is estimated that this force is related to vampires, and even has some inexplicable connection with the Burgundian regime and the British army. We must pay more attention to this unknown force in the future.
"Anyway, let's go back," Arthur said. "Will the Brotherhood come to clean up this mess?"
"In principle, we don't need to explain anything to the Grand Duke of Burgundy, we just authorize to come to this library to find books, and then just happened to be attacked by the mad ghouls." Inspector Tigen said: "We also lost Two brothers. Those who died in the library are even less of our responsibility. The Grand Duke of Burgundy will surely understand."
"That's good," Arthur replied lightly.
It was already evening when Arthur and Jost Jr. rode back to the base of the Myerson Brotherhood. They could have gone faster, but in order to take care of the chariot-riding Tigen and supervising pedestrians, the little Zusts deliberately slowed the horses down. This made Arthur a little uncomfortable, even though he didn't say it out loud.
"Is pumpkin soup for tonight's main course. Shit." Joey said suddenly before reaching the base.
"What?" Arthur was about to ask, but when he saw the smoke rising from the Brotherhood's secret base from a distance, he knew Joey was complaining about tonight's meal. That child's sense of smell is so sensitive that he could smell the taste of tonight's meal from this distance. Arthur couldn't smell anything, just saw the smoke.
So he grinned, put his hand on Joey's head and rubbed it: "Your boy's nose is really more sensitive than a puppy."
"Hehehe------" Joey replied with a smile.
"It's a pity that you can't enter the treasure room alone, Lord Aslan." As he was about to reach the gate of the base, Johnny Zuster picked this opportunity and said, "Please let me accompany you. Let's go to the treasure room."
"Yes." Arthur has no objection, and it is reasonable to do so: "What about the "New Testament. The Secret Book of the Holy Sword War"? Should I also put it in the treasure room?"
"No, it's really unsafe for this book to be hidden in the Burgundy branch. The defense here is not good enough." Inspector Tigeng said: "We can only send it to the secondary headquarters in Europe. "
"Is that so?" Arthur replied casually, without comment. This seemingly peaceful branch really shouldn't be hiding too many dangerous things, and the people of the Brotherhood don't want this branch to be attacked by ghouls again.
It's not something Arthur needs to worry about anyway, whatever. What he most urgently needs to get now is his Seraph Holy Sword. Without that sword, surviving in this world is stressful.
About ten minutes later.
Squeak. The door of the treasure room opened with the rotation of the mechanism, and then slowly opened. The sound of the door hinge sliding is a bit harsh. It is not the kind of door that is often opened, so it is normal for the various transmission joints to lack lubrication for many years.
There are a lot of treasures in the treasure room, but these treasures are actually relatively ordinary. Most of them are gifts given by various merchants and officials who joined the Brotherhood, and few of them are really treasures with powerful magic.
Therefore, it is not difficult for Arthur to retrieve his Seraph Sword in this treasure room full of treasures. Arthur, who is proficient in [True Sight], can see the world of photons after concentrating his mind, and finding two items with powerful magic in a dark treasure room is a piece of cake. After he took a look, he immediately found a hidden item in a wooden box in a corner of the treasure room. Even without opening the box, the magic power revealed by that item was stronger than any treasure in this treasure room.
"My sword is there." Arthur pointed to the chest.
"I originally wanted to test it to see if Lord Aslan could find his treasure. It seems that my worries are completely unnecessary~IndoMTL.com~ Little Zuster said with admiration.
"Don't test me," Arthur angrily said.
"Forgive me, Lord Aslan, I won't do this again in the future." Little Zust walked over with the oil lamp, took the wooden box, and opened it in front of Arthur.
Old Zust must have ordered someone to store the holy sword after he got it back, seriously. The moment the box was opened, Arthur could smell the aroma of camphor wood, and his Seraph Sacred Sword was stored in dry camphor wood chips. Protect this precious sword from the erosion of time.
"Ah, finally." Arthur took out his Seraph Sword from the sawdust and held it in his hand, suddenly feeling more secure.
However, under the light of the oil lamp, his Seraph's holy sword looks a little different--different from the holy sword in Arthur's impression.
Why does its sword have a strange sky blue color?
