Age of Arcane

Chapter 41 Arcane Discussion
Now the people from the government affairs office of Raging Waves City should be outside the Oulu Academy!
Luke pretended to read the book carefully, but he was thinking about the positions of the imperial spies and sheriffs who were hunting him down.

Library No. 36 was very quiet, and the gloomy atmosphere gradually increased unknowingly.

It is coming!
"Elf, you seem to be very interested in this book."

A voice came from behind.

Luke turned and saw a ghost floating behind him.He is a middle-aged man with chestnut curly hair and a sense of vicissitudes. He is wearing an old-fashioned Oulu mage robe, and his body is gray and translucent.

"Are you... the author of this book, Master Rowell Felix? I have seen your magic photo in the hall of honor of Oulu Academy. You are one of the founders of modern Oulu Academy. You wrote " "Introduction to Alchemy" is still a must-read work for scholars of magic.

It's just, I didn't expect to meet you this way.

My name is Qingkong, and I am an amateur occultist. "

According to the strategy, Rowell Felix was successfully attracted, and Luke continued to follow the process to push the plot.

"I've been observing you for a while." Felix floated to Luke's side: "Your obsession with occult arts made me unable to bear to show up to warn you. Mystic arts originated from ancient priests, and they are the magical powers The technique released.

People who study occult arts are easily influenced by mysterious forces. Once they are addicted to it, they will lose themselves and sink into the darkness and abyss.

Oulu Academy has paid a painful lesson for it.Although the academy did not explicitly prohibit the study of secret arts, but looking at this, you can know that the Oulu Academy rejects secret arts. "

Luke closed the book in his hand, and asked Felix: "Professor Felix... I read your book, but I still don't understand that curses belong to secret arts, or secret arts belong to curse arts?"

When it came to academics, Felix forgot the purpose of his presence.

"What I wrote on the title page 'These are two very interesting questions!' has actually been answered. The boundaries of academics are blurred, and there is a lot of overlap between different academics. This is just an interesting question, and There is no need to have an exact answer.

Moreover, this book was written when I was studying occult arts in the early days. Now mainstream academics should tend to attribute occult arts to curse arts.

Academic classification has nothing to do with academics, and no clear boundaries need to be drawn. "

"Thank you, Professor, for answering me. I have another question... Mystery is the release of mysterious energy, and there are many kinds of mysterious energy, both positive and negative.

But why do you say that studying secret arts will make people sink into the dark abyss?

And I have studied many cases of secret arts failures, just as you said... people who study secret arts always uncontrollably shift their research direction to the dark side. "

Felix replied: "No matter what energy, its attribute is neutral, and it is the person who deflects it.

To be precise, it is human nature.

Mysticism has almost no theoretical basis, and it relies heavily on the experience of the occultist.Everyone has their own understanding of secret arts, and it is decided that secret arts do not have a standard unit of measurement that is recognized by everyone.

This makes it difficult for occultists to conduct academic exchanges, and occultists are prone to mental illness when they are completely immersed in their own world.

Therefore, mystics often choose very dark and closed places for their laboratories.With such a psychology and such an environment, it is easy to develop the research of secret arts to the dark side.

I can see from your state that you have just become curious about secret arts.

Get rid of it in time before it swallows you up, is my advice to you.Once the academy discovers that you are studying secret arts, it will have a very bad influence on you. "

"Thank you for your advice, Professor Felix."

Luke thanked Felix, thinking to himself: Why aren't those people here yet!I obviously came to the library swaggeringly, and even went out of my way to say hello to the people I met along the way.

It is impossible for the imperial agents to fail to find them!
Fortunately, when Luke was about to ask another question to restrain Felix, there were finally hurried footsteps outside.

many people.

Felix heard voices too.

"What happened? Why are so many people coming to the library? They seem to be coming this way."

Luke said worriedly: "Professor Felix, if they find me here, will they expel me from Oulu Academy?"

The footsteps are getting closer!
Felix said to Luke: "I will take you to a place. I will send you out after they leave. Don't mention me and that place to anyone."

"I promise not to say anything."

A portal opened in the library, and Felix floated in.

Luke followed in.

The moment the portal closed, a sheriff walked up to the door.He took a wary look at the dusty library, then searched the next room.

With a flash of light in front of his eyes, Luke came to another library.

The library is closed on all sides, with no doors, no windows, and no exits in sight.

The books on the bookshelves were placed in a mess, and some were spilled directly on the ground. It can be seen how flustered the people who transferred the books were.

Felix walked carefully, even though he was a spirit, he was still afraid of destroying these books.

At the same time, Luke was reminded: "The books here are more than 100 years old, be careful not to damage them.

When the people outside leave, I will send you out. "

Luke looked at the names of the books on the shelf and asked, "These books are all related to occult arts, and...they should all have been destroyed.

Professor Felix, did you transfer them here and hide them? "

Felix replied with emotion: "Yes...the dean ordered the destruction of these books related to occult arts, but what does the crime committed by Victor have to do with these books?
Energy is neutral, knowledge is also neutral.These are the culmination of nearly a hundred years of research by our Department of Occult Arts, and they should not be destroyed because of some people who have gone astray.

So we forged a batch of secret art books and sent them to be destroyed, and then opened up a space to store these research results.

We hope that one day the Department of the Occult will be re-established and the study of the Occult resume under supervision.But that disaster did too much harm to Oulu Academy, a scar that no one wants to uncover again.

Mystery has become a taboo here. "

Experiencing this plot in person and promoting the plot in the game are two completely different feelings.

Looking at the collection of books in this room, one can imagine how much the Oulu Academy's Department of Occult Arts devoted to the study of occult arts, and how much they paid to keep these collections.

But Luke didn't forget his purpose of coming here.

"The book of disaster should be here too."

Hearing the title of the book, Felix, who was originally a phantom, solidified instantly.

He looked at Luke warily.

"You know the Book of Calamity! You asked me to take you into this secret room on purpose!"
