Mystery: The Star Key

In the middle of the night again, Igna entered Constantine's Municipal Library by "opening the door".

He took out the pony lantern from his arms and walked in the library in the dead of night.

The sound of footsteps echoed in the empty hall, and Ignat couldn't help shaking just like the first time he came in.

But his pace today is lighter than before.

"I can finally start reading other books tonight!" Igna sighed.

After dreaming of Chris Sheehan in a dream that time, Ignatius would dream of the black-haired and black-eyed Nighthawk every once in a while. And he had several academic discussions with him on whether there was any connection between the gods.

If he doesn't realize that this is a Beyonder ability at this time, then Ignatius is too stupid and sweet.

Although I don't understand why I can stay awake in the dream, Igna has been doing related homework related to the gods in order to deal with Chris.

And these lessons also helped Ignatius' research.

His extensive reading of academic books made him discover that the gods in this world do have something in common.

All relevant studies on the "creation myth" show that there is not much difference between the creation myths in the teachings of the right gods such as "Apocalypse of the Night", "Book of Storms", "Tome of Steam and Machinery".

The derivation and origin of the world have a "Pangu" feeling.

In other words, it is similar to Igna's original world!

This is good news.

In addition, the better news is that after Chris Sheehan fell into a dream the night before, he explained to him the results of his protection and investigation in the past 15 days, and explained to him that he would not Disturb Igna's sweet dreams again.

Very polite and well-ordered.

And Igna only learned at this time that the night watchers have been tracking themselves under the name of protection, which is actually monitoring.

He didn't even notice it at all!

Ignatius was terrified when he remembered it.

Although, in Chris's mouth, the purpose of the Night Watchers following him is entirely to ensure that he is not affected by the evil god's sacrifice, and has no other meaning, and also pays great attention to his privacy protection in the protection, so that he does not fear his own privacy. Give way.

However, if he hadn't been able to stay awake strangely in the dream, it would have been completely impossible for Igna to know that so many things happened quietly in these fifteen days.

"This world is terrible." Ignatius murmured.

Not only are the evil sacrifices and inexplicable malice frightening people, but also the indescribable sense of fear that Ignat generated from the bottom of his heart when he found so many incomprehensible things lurking around him.

Ignatius was even more determined to return early.

—I love socialism!

-

After waiting for three days to make sure that Chris's words are his words, and no one is following him anymore, Ignat plans to read other books that are helpful for "going back" this time.

For example, "Emperor Roselle".

With the more books that come into contact with the library, Igna also recalls more knowledge about the world.

Among them, the historical figure who most makes him think that "Going Home" may be related is Roselle Gustaf.

This Mr. Gustav is an inescapable figure in the history of this world. In technology, the steam engine was invented and the "industrial revolution" started. In history, after he overthrew the rule of the Intis Empire, he established the republic and became the chief executive of the new republic of Intis. Then he went south and north to fight. After making the Republic of Intis the hegemon of the Northern Continent, he changed the republic to an empire again and called himself "Emperor Caesar".

Moreover, Roselle also invented the tarot card, which established the composition and play of today's playing cards. Here are the Landlords, Texas and Quint that Igna is particularly familiar with and love... (Note 1)

There are countless stories about Roselle. Even though the Intis Empire and the Loen Kingdom look down on each other, Roselle has a huge impact on the daily life of ordinary people.

However, for Igna, the achievements of this "Emperor Julius Caesar", from the beginning of the "Industrial Revolution" to the title of "Caesar", made Igna feel that he was a modern man.

"It may even be Chinese."

Ignat is very sure, because as far as he knows, "Fighting the Landlord" is a purely Chinese game. "Fighting the Landlord" was "invented" on the land of the motherland for no more than 50 years. It was a card game invented by Hubei people during the period of "playing the landlord and dividing the land" after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Taking 10,000 steps back, even if it is really a foreign friend, the possibility of having an intersection with the Chinese is very high.

"Even peers."

When Ignatius inspected the deeds of Emperor Roselle, he also inspected the gameplay of "Gwent Cards". After that, Igna was even more certain that Emperor Roselle and himself had traveled through the same era.

Because the "Quint" of this world is the "Quint" of his world.

"Gwent Cards" is a built-in card game of the console game "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" that Ignatius likes very much. Ignatius vaguely remembers the year the Witcher 3 was released as 2015. Not long ago, the Anniversary Platinum Edition game pack was released, and Ignatius entered the pit at that time.

Missing the entertainment activities of modern society for a while, Igna has another clue that excites him.

"These things Roselle invented show that the time interval between him and me is relatively short." Ignatius pondered, "It may even have been produced for the same 'reason' within a certain period of time."

"For example, the Lord God of Infinite Stream pulls people into the game and lets them accumulate energy through risky fighting." Igna, who was familiar with online novels, quickly made a guess.

Although this speculation is very likely to be overturned, because Igna also knows that there is no "system" prompt after crossing, and there is no "task" promulgated, which is not in line with "the main **** pulls people to make people complete a certain task". tasks, so as to achieve a certain purpose” logic.

His crossing was more like an accident.

An accident that no one cares about, but is full of variables.

"Let's continue to see if there are any clues tonight." Igna was not discouraged, he had only just begun to understand Roselle Gustaf today.

Following the index number written down earlier, Igna quickly found the biography of Roselle Gustav.

The method of library management in the Loen Kingdom already has a certain prototype of modern library management that Ignatius is familiar with, but it is not so rigorous.

Just like now, although Igna was looking for a further biography of Roselle's life, but in this area, he saw a row of books published uniformly, Roselle's book series.

"Rosell's Inventions", "The Count of Mount Bedou", "Romeo and Juliet", "King Lear", "Macbeth"...

The titles of the first two books were just swept away by Igna, but the titles of the following consecutive books made Igna's eyes unable to move.

? ? ? ?

"This... can't it??"

Ignatius dug out the book of Romeo and Juliet without hesitation.

On the title page of the book, there is a foreword by Ruen's contemporary literary critic Squaid, who said: "Rosell's romance in his youth is well-known, but the love story written by him, who is also young, is so impressive. Touching. When it comes to 'love that shouldn't happen', people will think of Romeo and Juliet for the first time..."

Seeing this, Igna had a bad premonition.

He quickly turned a few pages and briefly looked at the contents of the book.

Ignat glanced ten lines at a time, and then "snapped—" and closed the hard-shell book in his hand.

"Shameless... so shameless..." Igna's eyes were a little empty.

In particular, Ignat couldn't help but scolded in a low voice after looking at the very familiar titles of works in the back row and the names of the authors they belonged to.

I didn't expect you to be such a Roselle!

Besides, he didn't copy one or two copies, he actually copied so many, and he even signed his own name. Help! Shakespeare's coffin board can't hold it anymore!

Ignat immediately flipped through the next book, The Count of Mount Bedou.

leave! Dumas' coffin board can't hold it anymore! I thought that the title changed, I don't know it!

After flipping through several books in a row, all of a sudden, Ignatius' previous admiration for Roselle dissipated a lot.

Before, Igna very, very admired Roselle for being such a powerful person in this world. Created the era of the Industrial Revolution and unified the Intis Empire.

But, although, but...

Didn't this senior think that there would be other transmigrators? !

Thinking that someone so "great" to outsiders plagiarized so many works, Ignat suddenly felt embarrassed that his toes pierced the floor.

Igna took a deep breath and calmed down.

Then Igna put the book back and stopped looking at these "literary works" by Roselle Gustav. Instead, he looked at Roselle's mysticism research and Roselle's biography.

These can never be plagiarized.

Um... Except for the Tarot cards.

However, thanks to Constant City's rich collection of books, Ignatius still found some very useful things.

For example, in "Research on the Occultism of Roselle Gustaf", the suspected sign may have been invented by Roselle and has occult significance.

It turned out to be Chinese!

It's still Simplified Chinese with ugly handwriting!

Fuck! Sure enough, it's Chinese!

Even Igna couldn't help but curse at this moment to express his excitement.

However, after the ecstasy, Igna found the contents of the diary excerpted from the book, which he could not understand.

"On January 14th, I discovered a problem. If the unconscious high-sequence items are not sealed, they will unconsciously attract low-sequence items of the same pathway to the vicinity, and there will be intersections. The higher the original sequence, the more It's more likely to happen. However, it doesn't seem to be constant, it's intermittent."

"January 16, the witch's taste is really good."

"On January 20th, I made the second card of blasphemy." (Note 2)

What is this and what?

Igna felt as if he was reading a book from heaven. Obviously they are all Chinese characters, but they can't be understood when they are combined together.

What is a witch? What is the principle that high-sequence items attract low-sequence items? What is the card of blasphemy?

In this occult study, only a part of the diary content was intercepted, and the foreword did not make sense, so that Ignat could not understand it at all.

"However, there is still hope of returning home."

"It can be determined that Roselle is a senior transmigrator, and it doesn't look like he is a low-sequence Beyonder."

"He also has the habit of keeping a diary. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"

"If you can collect his diary, you should be able to understand more things in this world." Ignatius said to himself, "Maybe you can find clues to travel or go back."

Encouraged, Igna continued to read many books related to Roselle.

It wasn't until the sky turned slightly white that Igna took out his pocket watch and glanced at it.

It's almost time again. However, he had only read half of the book in his hand.

Igna thought for a while, closed the book, and put it in his arms.

He really had no choice, the night time was so short, and Roselle Gustaf's biography was so long. If he wants to quickly grasp the knowledge and information, he can only do this.

The reason why I didn't take the book away before was because Chris looked at it. Now that no one is watching, it is of course more efficient to "borrow" the book and go back to read it.

"Besides...the matter of the scholar, can it be called stealing?"

However, even thinking of this handicap, Igna didn't want to laugh.

Instead, he thought of the arrogant librarians who kicked him out of the library.

Those administrators with upturned nostrils once said that civilians who are not qualified to apply for borrowing cards cannot enter the library.

Because they know nothing but steal books.

Thinking of this, Igna walked halfway and stuffed the book back again.

"Humph, people are fighting for a breath!"
