Whispering Verse

Chapter 1068: collector mr booker

Miss Dennist whispered which relic she could get her hands on, but most of these relics had long since been lost:

"Some of them can indeed be borrowed, but I have to wait until I return to the academy to contact the owners of those relics. However, I know from the Orthodox Church that Huang Yue was found in the secret keeper's trial. Also That is to say, there may be similar relics in Tobesk."

She said softly, and Xia De pretended not to understand because he shouldn't be there at the time:

"If it can be found in Tobesk, then you need to find the relic. I will wait for your good news."

"Yes, no problem. It is easier to find a specific relic than to find the core spirit rune. After all, the information is there. Even if we can't find it in Tobesk, we have other relics to choose after returning to the academy. I still have some face in the material world."

She stood up:

"Mr. Hamilton, no, let's call you Shad. Shad, I think the mystery of [Silver Moon Library] will be revealed to us soon, and I will not forget your contribution. In addition, in recent weeks, the city Big things can happen, so be careful during this time."

"no problem."

Xia De stood up and said, sending Miss Daniste downstairs.

But before the sorceress left, he took out another crystal cylindrical vial about the size of a quarter of a pinky finger. This bottle was custom-made by Shade specially for Old John, and it contains a liquid with sparkles:

"Miss Dennist, this is for you as a gift for the end of the year."

He handed out the vial in the hall.

"It's still half a month before the New Year's Eve. Moreover, the college has a clear policy prohibiting professors from accepting gifts from correspondence students."

Even though she said that, she still took the small bottle, clamped it between two white fingers, and shook it in front of her eyes, showing incredible eyes.

"this is......"

The red moonlight glowed from her right finger, and when the moonlight touched the liquid, the nearly transparent liquid also reflected the red light representing the moon.

Miss Daniste in the hall looked at Shad in surprise:

"Is this the water of moonlight? The essence of the moon that can only be formed naturally after thousands of years in a specific location?"

"Yes, you recognized it? That's remarkable."

Shad nodded immediately.

But he doesn't need thousands of years, the "Moonlight Water" in the crystal container about a quarter of the size of the little finger is the amount that can be produced on a moonlit night.

"Even by end-of-the-year gift standards, this is a bit too precious."

She shook the small bottle, hesitated, and handed it back to Xia De:

"It's too precious, and you need it more than me. I'll give you the formula of a potion, and you can find a pharmacist you trust enough to help make it up. The potion can greatly increase your resistance to the power of moonlight." Perception, and it is permanently increased, which is very useful for low-level warlocks like you."

"No, no, I actually kept some for myself, so you can accept this...you can give me the recipe."

Xia De said with a smile, and Miss Daniste also showed a smile on her face, took back the bottle, and tucked it in her skirt:

"I'll have someone bring it to you tomorrow, Xia De, you're very good."

Xia De opened the door, and the librarian lady walked into the snowy Saint Teresa Square, waved to him, then turned around and disappeared into the night.

"Is this considered bribery?"

When Xia De closed the door and was about to go upstairs again, he saw Luvia standing at the corner of the stairs and smiling at him, obviously hearing the conversation just now.

"Bribe? No, no, how can this be considered a bribe? Just use the gift to deepen the friendship between me and the school officials, which will be very helpful in the future."

Xia De bent down and picked up the cat on the steps, and walked to Luvia at the top of the stairs:

"And the point of this matter is not what I gave, but Miss Daniste accepted... Are you done with your work?"

"Of course not, but now the planetarium is automatically recording data, so I'll come down to see you. Tonight, I'll probably be busy very late."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Xia De, obviously wanting Xia De to say something in his eyes.

So Xia De coughed:

"Then don't go back, just stay here overnight. Although it's not snowing outside, you know, it's not easy to walk at night. MI6 was looking for the missing girl yesterday."

The purple-eyed girl showed a faint smile, and walked upstairs with Xia De:

"Tell me about the MI6 lost girl. You can, take your time."

(Mia is running...)

It can be foreseen that the start of the ceremony of the chosen ones probably happened after Sir Priscia returned to Huntington with the visiting group. And in order to prevent the qualifications of being selected from falling into the hands of Miss Pavo, who was the second overall pick, this time, Luvia did not intend to get rid of Sir Priscia in advance.

On Monday morning, after giving the crystal ball taken out of the gift box to Luvia, and accepting the task of scrubbing the glass inside the bedroom before the weekend, Xia De set off for the entrance of the Natural Church and Priscia in the east of the city. Jazz confluence.

The relic that Jazz invited Shad to take in with him yesterday is a clerical relic ["Book of Fools"], but the more widely circulated name is "The Book That Fools Can't See". Judging from the officially recorded name, it is difficult to infer the characteristics of the book, but the name that has been widely spread shows the specific function of the book—

"The Book of Fools" is a book without any words, but once the inner pages are observed, knowledge will appear on it. The smarter people are, the more they can see more and more useful content; the more stupid people are, the less knowledge they see. According to the legend, this book was written by an ancient prophet in the fourth era, and most of the knowledge in it is related to that prophet.

This book is only rated as a clerical grade because a large number of people really cannot read any text on this book, and those who can read the text on this book can see the content as well. Most are not very dangerous.

Because in the eyes of most people, this is a book without words, so it is named "Book of Fools", implying that most people are actually fools. But the negative characteristic of this book is that smart people sometimes fall into irreparable madness directly after reading this book, and then go completely crazy.

Therefore, "Book of Fools" also refers to those who can see the content, in fact, are the real fools. After all, given how dangerous this book is, it would be truly wise not to read it.

Currently "Book of Fools" is in the hands of Mr. Booker, a stingy private collector in East Tobesk. He runs a club and a library. The library adopts the common membership system of this era. You can only enter the library to read books after paying a certain fee every month, and you need to pay additional fees for copying and taking away books.

If that was the case, Sir Priscia himself could get the book away, but according to his investigation, that Mr. Booker has been influenced by the "Book of Fools", and even has some weird powers because of it.

To be on the safe side, he would ask Xia De to act together. After all, you can't be too careful when storing relics. Even a clerk-level relic, once it gets out of control and encounters a suitable scene, even a thirteen-ring warlock may find it difficult.

Mr. Booker is a 43-year-old middle-aged man with half-bald hair, a stocky build, and wearing glasses. Sir Priscia had already made an appointment in advance, so the two of them could directly enter the library this morning.

There is a special reception room in the library, and Mr. Booker entertained two people in the reception room. This well-to-do gentleman has many servants, and hot tea and snacks were brought to them shortly after they were seated.

When introducing himself and shaking hands, Xia De also sensed that Mr. Booker did have traces of whispering elements. If it is a ring warlock, this is not unusual, but for ordinary people, this often means big trouble.

For the holders of the "Book of Fools", it is impossible for them to voluntarily hand over that book, especially now that Mr. Booker has obtained "power" from that book, so come to recover the relic The two of them need some small means.

The reason why Sir Priscia made an appointment to visit was to buy another book. After chatting with Mr. Booker for a while and signing the book purchase agreement, he suddenly asked:

"Mr. Booker, as you know, I am a foreigner from the United Kingdom of Carson Rik, and I will return to my country next week. I don't know, if I have the opportunity to visit your private collection? I admire your The fame has come a long way."

A well-known book collector like Mr. Booker must have his own collection. But this time, Mr. Booker just thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

On the one hand, it was because the purchase price given by Sir Priscia was very high, and on the other hand, it was also because the identities of Sir Priscia and Shad, in the eyes of this ordinary person without a noble title, were very respectable.

The collection room of the library is in the underground area, which looks like it was converted from the basement of a house. To enter the storage room, you need to open two doors and three locks. The lock on the innermost metal door uses the most advanced gear-piston structure and is controlled by an independent steam pressure system.

Even to the well-informed outsider, the level of technology is quite impressive.

Of course, these non-mysterious locks are not worth mentioning in front of the spell [Key of the Door].

Corresponding to the expensive and exquisite defense measures are Mr. Booker's priceless collection of books, as well as the magnificent decoration of the collection room like a museum collection~www.readwn.com~He talked with Shad and Pu with great interest. Sir Lisha introduced his collection of books one by one, and proudly boasted how many gold pounds each of his collection was worth.

Even a person like Shade who doesn't know much about books can know how valuable old books such as "The Glory of the Cavendish Bloodline" and "Crown of Honor: Appreciation of Ancient Crowns" are.

Of course, his attention was not always on Mr. Booker's collection. The communication with Mr. Booker was mainly done by Sir Priscia. Shad just followed behind the two and put on the ring quietly.

-----Off Topic-----

ps: It was the first time I entered the Silver Mountains. Miss Chloe said that there were 19 people in the team. Therefore, in Chapter 1065, the details are changed from "there are 13 people in the team" to "due to the influence of the snow mountain, Miss Chloe only remembers the information of 13 people, and the others are very vague".

It doesn't affect the direction of the story, it's just a different way of saying it, and those who are interested can go and have a look.
