The Truth of Magic Chapter 164: Library of Legends (2/3)


   Later, Zhao Xu and Antinoya talked about the entire process of mastering advanced abilities, especially his vow to the death of "Magic Origin".

   Antinoya didn't say much, but in the past he opened a "Lending Certificate" on the desk and asked him to find the answer on his own.

   After Zhao Xu regained his spell position the next day, he took the parchment "proof of borrowing" that Antinoya gave him, and started to the destination "Legend Library" recorded above.

  Compared with the Library of Knowledge, which can enrich and improve skills and knowledge, the "Legend Library" has no records at all.

   Zhao Xu looked through the guidebook for the novice wizard, which recorded most of the building locations of the floating city, and the core area of ​​the floating city, the "Palace of Truth", did not shy away from it.

   The obelisk at the corner of the floating city is also marked, except that there is only a simple name on it, and a circle of extremely dangerous signs is used to mark "No Entry".

   But the "legendary library" doesn't seem to exist.

   Zhao Xu followed the route he remembered, and after spending about twenty minutes, he finally reached the only place indicated on the "Lending Certificate"—the Library of Knowledge.

The    knowledge library occupies an extremely large area. Zhao Xu had only borrowed books on the bottom two floors before, and the upper level was based on his current level of knowledge and skills, so there was no need to touch it at all.

   But this time the parchment pointed to the top floor of the "Library of Knowledge", and Zhao Xu also entered the alchemy elevator for the first time.

  As the gate opened, Zhao Xu stepped into it. When he was about to press the button on the tenth floor, his hand stopped.

   There is no tenth floor!

   At this time, Zhao Xu took out the proof and turned it over, and found that although the swash of Antinoya on it was very elegant, it was also extremely clear, and it was the tenth level.

   Zhao Xu sighed, feeling some pressure.

   Since the last time he experienced the disappearance of Classroom 101, he has understood one thing.

   Wherever Antinoya did not take him, there are usually levels waiting for him.

   But Zhao Xu still didn't hesitate too much, and just pressed the button on the brass hollowed-out layer number-nine layers.

   babbled on the alchemy elevator, with the sound of ratchet dragging, Zhao Xu slowly ascended with a slight overweight feeling.

   At this time, he also took out the "Novice Wizard Handbook" and flipped through it, and turned to the introduction page of the Knowledge Library.

   Zhao Xu frowned when he looked at the contents of each layer.

  "Boom." At this time, the elevator slowly crashed into the space on the ninth floor, and the gate opened slowly after touching the mechanism.

   Zhao Xu also walked out at this time. In front of him, there are countless rows of heavy wooden bookshelves on which books about knowledge are neatly stacked.

  The only strange thing is that the books are covered with a thick layer of dust, as if no one has touched them for decades.

   Moreover, an extra metal frame is added to the cover of each classic book, and a lock is also hung on the opening and closing position.

   That is, every book about knowledge here is locked.

  This layer is also completely different from the following layers. There is no front desk for book borrowing and qualification review.

   After Zhao Xu stepped out of the elevator, the gate of the alchemy elevator slowly closed. At the same time, the brass button on the ninth floor also slowly disappeared, as if it had been directly erased.

   Zhao Xu looked at the booklet in his hand, shook his head, and put it directly back into his backpack.

   is recorded in the pamphlet—the Library of Knowledge, which has eight floors.

   Then what happened to the ninth floor where he came from nothing?

   At this time, Zhao Xu also noticed that in the loan certificate that Antinoya had written to him, those words had disappeared bit by bit, as if they had been used.

   Zhao Xu immediately became alert, and at the same time began to think about the current situation.

   Is this layer in front of him just the ninth layer of nothingness, or is it the tenth layer where his destination is?

   And the only thing he can be sure of is that this "proof of loan" given to him by Antinoya will allow him to reach this abandoned floor.

  Even he suspected that now that others enter the elevator, they can’t see the brass button on the “ninth floor”, otherwise this booklet would have been questioned long ago.

   Zhao Xu released a "protection from evil" method for himself at this time, and then walked forward.

  , who has the cloak of stars, he is not so worried about those melee attacks at this moment.

   At this time, Zhao Xu approached the first row of bookshelves and directly took down a locked classic.

   Zhao Xu barely got over the metal frame and distinguished the title of the book-"Evil Ritual: Dinner for the Undead", the center of the painting is a group of skeletons braving the magical red light, dancing around a bunch of bonfires , Above the campfire is an adventurer with a frightened expression.

   Zhao Xu directly stuffed it back, and took out another classic book to take a look, "Theft of Life, A Hundred Ways of Pain".

   Zhao Xu immediately browsed the entire row, "The Sacrifice of the Witch", "Ten Taboo Rituals of the Wilds", "The Lich's Phylogram", "The Curse of the Blood Sacrifice, Family", "How to Become a Devil"... …

   He shook his head suddenly, looking at nothing good books.

   Thinking of this, Zhao Xu walked directly to the second bookshelf.

After    browsed, he reached the third bookshelf again.

   In the end, Zhao Xu had already faintly understood.

The    level is an abandoned and banned library, all kinds of evil rituals and vicious curses are displayed in it.

   Zhao Xu knows that there are evil spells in spells, but looking at these classics, the methods involved are more primitive and cruel.

   seems to be a way of continuation in the uncivilized era.

   Suddenly, Zhao Xu frowned.

   On the wooden board on the far right of the bookshelf, there is still a bunch of keys that have slowly rusted.

   Zhao Xu directly took down the set of keys and looked at it. He found that the handles of the keys were of different shapes, many of which were the heads of skeletons and even demons.

   and a line of characters was finely carved on the head, Zhao Xu opened his eyes and read, "The structure of evil spirits."

   He suddenly realized that it was the name of one of the classics on this shelf. At that time, the cover of that book was an evil demon, and it almost made him sick.

   In other words, which metal lock frame on the outside of the classics does this key correspond to?

   Zhao Xu directly took out the classic book and looked at the structure of the key and the hole shape of the padlock in the middle of the classic book. It really fits.

   Zhao Xu gently inserted the key, and then twisted it.

   "Tick." A sound.

   The lock is unlocked.

   But Zhao Xu immediately reversed the screw and relocked the iron frame that had locked the classics.

   Suddenly, Zhao Xu seemed to feel a shock from the book "The Structure of Bad Demons" in his hand.

   However, Zhao Xu directly tucked the classics back to their original positions.

   "Young man, you are indeed very cautious." An old voice came from behind Zhao Xu.

   Zhao Xu was almost scared to turn around to cast spells.

   But he immediately regained his composure. Turning his head and looking at him, he was an elderly mage who was too old with a cane. He leaned back and looked at Zhao Xu, his eyes full of turbidity, as if decayed.

   is completely different from those wizards that Zhao Xu had seen before, who were old but still full of energy.

   "Excuse me, are you?" Zhao Xu asked, in private, he was about to take out his protective staff.

   "Don't be nervous, I really want to do it to you, you can't get out what you put in your backpack."

   said the elderly mage, and couldn't help coughing.

   "How did you know that I was going to buy something?" Zhao Xu asked for advice at this time.

   "Your movements and expressions are too obvious." The elderly mage said with a smile, but the skin on his face was dry and wrinkled, and his laughter seemed a little hoarse.

   After hearing these words, Zhao Xu relaxed.

   He nodded, indeed he should correct those unnecessary movement habits in the future, otherwise he would not be able to conceal the skills of these mages.

  "First introduce myself, I am Morton, the gravekeeper of this "abandoned library"."

  Abandoned library?

   Tombkeeper?

   Zhao Xu suddenly noticed the weirdness that the old mage said~IndoMTL.com~ but he still patiently waited for the other party to continue.

   At this time, in the entire library, only their two voices echoed, looking a little gloomy.

   "A bit curious? Why isn't it the taboo library you guessed? It's abandoned?"

   After that, the elderly mage looked back at the site with a depth of one hundred meters and hundreds of bookshelves stacked, "Because the classics here are all outdated things."

   Zhao Xu also began to understand at this time.

   It stands to reason that the more evil and terrifying things are, the more people who die to read them.

   Zhao Xu doesn't catch a cold for some methods that need to sacrifice others to gain strength.

   But for some, these forbidden and terrifying ritual magics themselves have amazing charm.

   So on this level, there is not half a living person, but it is a bit strange.

  "Most of these are some ancient rituals that have been handed down. Many of them have been invalidated, but this is not a big problem. The main reason is that most of these classics have some kind of curse effect, which will affect the people who read them. Sealed here, waiting for the years to be abandoned." The old mage recalled.

  "Excuse me, Master Morton, do you know how to get to the Legend Library?" Zhao Xu asked humbly at this time.

   "Hehe, it's really interesting. It's actually a 3rd-level mage like you who is going to the "Legend Library"."

  The elderly mage suddenly couldn't help laughing, making Zhao Xu a little worried about the other party.

   Suddenly, the old mage’s laughter stopped and he looked at Zhao Xu, "The entrance of the legendary library is in one of the books here."
