The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 1218 Another Choice
The relationship between Kuranxue and Petra is very good. The two belong to friends who have known each other since they were in school, or girlfriends.

But when the two get along, they always maintain a clear attitude between public and private, and they can talk about anything in private.Once it comes to business, it is natural to follow the rules.

These two girls whose IQ is far greater than their EQ have always been getting along like this. Perhaps it is because of the distinction between public and private that their relationship lasts for a long time.

After all, brothers and sisters settle accounts clearly and always take advantage of favors. In the end, any unhappiness may cause the friends who have been friends for decades to fall apart.

However, you must behave properly, and seeking acquaintances still has some advantages.

Petra promised Kuranxue to take the expedition team to archaeology, which belongs to her old line of work, and it can be regarded as easy to catch.

On the other hand, Ku Lanxue simply wrote a document and affixed his emperor's seal, which was the passport to enter the library and flip through books.

The Edrastia Empire is very fanatical about everything in the old empire, and the documents and records left by the old empire are invaluable treasures to them. The only person in the whole country who has the full strength to issue a pass is the emperor himself.

It will definitely take some time before the archaeological team starts, such as gathering people to buy supplies, so taking advantage of this time, Petra dragged Lin Tianci to the library, planning to read the book first.

But when he arrived at the place, he realized that this library was very different from the library Lin Tianci imagined.The building storing ancient documents is no longer a library, and it would not be surprising to say that it is an imperial treasury.

It is not a simple stone or brick building, both inside and outside, as well as the roof, are covered with a [-] mm thick enchanted armor plate, which according to Petra is enough to resist ten B-level spell bombardments or three A-level spells , with both anti-rust and alarm functions, the entire library does not even have a window, and it looks like a solid iron lump from a distance.

At the same time, there are constant temperature and humidity magics specially used to protect documents inside the library, and there are guards patrolling the periphery 24 hours a day. Even though Petra has entered several times, he also brought the emperor Kuranxue's own documents. , the guard guarding the gate is still carefully confirming, that kind of carefulness can't wait to tear up the document and taste whether it is genuine or not...

Not only is it troublesome to enter, but you have to go to the next hut to change into special clothes if you want to go in. Any items that may cause damage to the books are absolutely not allowed.

Just by looking at the trouble, you can see how troublesome it is to get in.

Petra went in to flip through the book, while Lin Tianci found a bench outside and sat down and waited.

Firstly, many things on his body are unqualified, and the guards will definitely not let him in. Secondly, even if he goes in, it is useless. He does not know the characters of the old empire. Very inefficient and doesn't help Petra at all.

That's why Petra has a road to go to Shushan, while Lin Tianci is lazily basking in the sun outside.

So far, the operation in the Lost Land has been going smoothly, but Lin Tianci feels that the smoothness will stop here.

No one can guarantee how much useful data there is in the Imperial Library. When Petra came here before, she preferred to look up the customs and historical records of the old empire. It is important not to find remnants of the old empire period.

So he doesn't know how many useful things there are, so he can only say to look through it.

Not long after sitting down, Lin Tianci cast a glance from the corner of his eye and saw the sapphire brooch on his chest flickering and dimming. This was Sally trying to establish a connection with him.

Usually, Lin Tianci was always in a hurry to ask Saili about the situation, but there were not many cases where it was the other way around, but no matter what the situation was, Saili was responsible for maintaining the communication, otherwise Lin Tianci really couldn't handle cross-plane magic communication.

"Have you been to the library of the Edrastia Empire?"

"Just arrived, Petra went in to flip through the book."

Lin Tianci took off the brooch, and showed Sai Li the iron-gray library behind her like holding a camera.

"Yes, it can be seen that they attach great importance to knowledge and information, which is something to be commended."

The existence of the blue goblins is simply a thirst for knowledge. For them, knowledge is the most precious thing in the world, and it should be kept in the safest way.

"You want to go in and have a look too?"

"That's right, but I have something else to ask you. I will come to this library by myself when I have time in the future."

If she came by herself, the procedure might not be very legal...

"What's the matter?"

"Do you still remember the fact that I said that there are only two people who can open the seal of the Heavenly Demon God at the sealed place in the strange world?"

I don't know why Sai Li suddenly mentioned this, Lin Tianci wondered:
"Of course I remember, you said one was called Thousand Faced Thief King, and you didn't mention the other one."

"I was still not sure at the time, so I didn't tell you directly. During this period of time, I did some research, and the other person who can open the seal of the Heavenly Demon God should be the Shadow Cult."

This name is not unfamiliar to Lin Tianci, but it is definitely not familiar. After all, he only heard some of them when he was popularizing science in Celie, and he never really met them face to face.

The closest time was probably in the city of water, when the shadow sect stole the treasure of the city of water, the Thousand-Blade Knife.

"At that time, it was the Shadow Cult that assisted those evil cultivators, and depending on their skills, I guess it was the high-level members of the sect, or simply the leader, Shadow, who personally acted."

Lin Tianci frowned:

"You mean...the evil cultivator joined forces with the Shadow Cult?"

This is definitely not good news for monks. The greater the power of evil cultivators, the more unfavorable they will be.The Shadow Cult was described by Sai Li as an existence that came and went without a trace, like an urban legend. Their achievements in stealth operations are currently unmatched by anyone.

Such a group of guys who are sneaking around in the dark and working together with evil cultivators, who knows when they will secretly stab Zhengdao.

"It is right to join forces, but I think they should not join forces willingly."

"What do you say?"

"The purpose of the mission's actions has always been a mystery, but since they started their operations, they have never contacted any organization or individual and expressed their intention to cooperate. It is said that it does not match their usual style, and it is hard to imagine what purpose the sect needs to achieve in order to join hands with evil cultivators."

Cooperation is based on the benefits of both parties, that is, a slap in the face cannot be clapped.

With the behavior of evil cultivators, even the Shadow Cult will not think it is correct. This group of people is indeed a shadow living in the shadows, but there is still essence to the fucking stuff like evil cultivators who refine souls into the law. on the difference.

These two organizations are completely different in terms of style and purpose, why did they suddenly join forces, and even the leader of the Shadow Order would personally help?
"Since the separation of the Shadow Guards, I have never been able to find any definite information related to the Shadow Order. It is also an unsolved mystery where their hometown is. Recently, it has been discovered that the evil cultivators have joined forces with the Order. Let me make a wild guess."

"Could it be...they are all in Avis?"

"That's right, that's the only way to explain it."

Sally continued:
"The combat effectiveness of the Shadow Cult is not strong, and they are not even third-rate in terms of their ability to fight. However, they have a lot of technology and treasures from the ancient elves, plus powerful magic items collected over the years. There should still be a fight, and the two of them will choose to join forces, probably because the situation forces them to join forces."

There was the sound of pages turning from the side of the brooch, it should be Sai Li reading the information.

"The latest evidence shows that the actions of the Shadow Religion are somewhat abnormal. They usually do not leave any traces at all. Even with the intelligence gathering capabilities of our White Hands Association, we can't catch their tails. However, recently they have After each operation, there will be relatively more obvious traces, as if they deliberately wanted us to find out. I guess the religious order may want to convey some information, but because someone is watching, it is difficult to say directly. "

"Is there an evil revisionist watching them?"

"It should be right. The sect definitely doesn't want its hometown to be threatened, so it also hopes to get rid of the evil cultivator, the sharp blade chosen above its head. However, they can't defeat the evil cultivator. The only way at present is to join hands with your righteous way."

"Can you really fight for it?"

If this can be done, it will be equivalent to planting a time bomb in Xie Xiu's hometown. As long as it happens at the right time, it will definitely blow up Xie Xiu's hemiplegia.

"It's just a guess at the moment. I've made some arrangements. The church will definitely not be able to contact you directly, but if they really think what I think, they should find a way to notify the White Hands Association."

Lin Tianci has Sai Li, a know-it-all, to provide intelligence support. Not many people know about this, but this matter can be spread through the White Hands Association.

A powerful intelligence network is also a powerful intelligence machine. They can do more than just collect intelligence. Dissemination of information is also a specialty for them.

The members of the White Hands Association will control this matter within a reasonable range, and the Shadow Order, which is also well-informed, should soon understand that this is a signal from Sally.

At that time, they should find a way to contact the White Hands Association, use this level of information transfer as a cover, and then discuss countermeasures with the righteous monks.

In this way, at least how to enter Avis should not be a problem. After all, the evil cultivators want the monks to help kill the evil cultivators, only if they can enter Avis.

However, relying on others is still unreliable after all. Saili also reminded at the end that if you are at odds with cults and evil cultivators who can use them, you can even cooperate, but don't treat them as close allies. The ultimate purpose is always unclear, and there is no guarantee that you will be stabbed in the future when there is a conflict of interest.

In short, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and you can try to move towards unity, but you must not stop the research on Avis on your own side, at least you will not be controlled by others in the future.
