Chapter 150: Old Man
It was just water, and even if it was part of the great flood summoned by the Olympian gods led by Poseidon and Zeus, it couldn't hurt the legendary lich, and what really caught her off guard was that she was afraid that the water would attract the eyes of the two big horses.

"I don't want myself and Semiramis to be favored by those two guys, I don't care, Semiramis's appearance is overwhelming, if they notice, even if they can't directly attack the main plane because of the treaty of the gods, I can't beat them, let alone be targeted by them......"
Thinking of this, Alice shuddered, and hurriedly took Semiramis's little hand and prepared to step into the [Time and Space Gate] and leave this place.
Things with the breath of gods can completely transcend the existence of mortal things, and from another point of view, they can be regarded as the doppelgangers of gods, but they are not as good as the previous doppelgangers of Bashomu and the projection of the Sphinx, but the gods can sense everything around them through these things, and even rely on and project through these things at any time, such as the water traces in the eyes of Alice and others, Poseidon and Zeus can completely project a trace of will into it, and build a small doppelganger with the residual power in the waterγ
"Don't be so afraid, even if these things are there, they won't be able to sense it......"
In addition to the three people at the scene, the voice of a fourth person appeared in the field, it was a faint and noble voice, judging from the voice alone, it can be concluded that this is not an ordinary person.
These things obviously refer to the traces of water on the ground that have not all disappeared, and according to the sudden sound, this place can be insulated from the power of the gods.
This voice also calmed Alice, she carefully observed the water under her feet, it was obviously something with the breath of a god, but it was like a pool of stagnant water without any waves, and no life could be found in it, such a situation would only appear when the clone could not get in touch with the body.
"It's really rare, is there anyone who still comes to see me at this time?"
Alice, who had stopped, looked in the direction where the voice came from, an old man with gray hair was dressed in Egyptian costumes, with precious gold jewelry around his neck, wrists, forehead, and fingers, and he was sitting on a chair, and in front of him was a table, on which there were many books, one in the east and one in the west, and in a mess, from Alice's point of view, you could vaguely see the names of the books on it, all of which were some historical stories and some travel miscellaneous.
The old man's appearance did not match his words at all, he did not look surprised at all, but was very calm.
"Apophis, but let you down, I won't leave this place. β
It was only then that Alice noticed the decoration of this room.
I can't count it, I can't see it, and everything I see is a book that carries knowledge.
Knowledge painted on stone walls, knowledge written on stone slabs, knowledge recorded on straw ropes, knowledge written on books,
Anything that has appeared in history and can be used as a vehicle for knowledge, writing, drawings, etc., can be found here
There were no bookshelves here, and the slates, straw ropes, and other things were floating in the air like this, but they were neatly arranged and shone with a faint light, and as Alice's gaze moved, the knowledge in those things that were looked at would appear in Alice's mind.
"It is worthy of being the largest library in the main plane, and in terms of the scale and number of books in total, it is indeed surpassing the [Book of the Dead]. β
Thinking this in her heart, after a cursory glance, Alice's eyes were on the old man, and instead of answering the old man's question, she asked a question.
"Who are you and why are you here?"
"Who am I......? It's been a long time, and I've almost forgotten my name. β
The old man smiled and shook his head, revealing a mouthful of white, intact teeth.
"It seems that you are not from Apophis, if you don't even know me. β
"But you must also know who I am, and do not care about my existence...... Since you have come here through the passage below, it means that you are not from Ramses. β
"It's not Apophis' people, it's not Ameng's people, it's neither a friend nor an enemy, you can do whatever you want, as long as you don't come to disturb me reading. β
After the old man finished speaking, he ignored Alice's reaction, lowered his head and continued to indulge in the book.
Suddenly, Alice felt a finger on her waist gently poking herself, and looked up, only to see Semiramis's smiling expression, Alice knew that she saw her former self from the old man, the one who was still in school, the young girl who was always addicted to the sea of books.
Ignoring the old man and the two guys around him who were ready to abandon themselves and prepare to escape, Drake took out a strange object from his arms, a thumb-sized glass bead floated in an iron needle, which is a must-have thing for people who sail on the sea, it has a magical effect, the iron needle always points to the location of the south, this thing is the necessities of every person living at sea, something that can be compared with food, drinking water and ships, without this thing, even if a sailor who has been sailing at sea for more than ten years, sometimes he will be lost in the sea, in the vast sea, if he can't find his way, then death is not far awayThis thing has an apt name in Alice's former world - the Compass Needle.
However, now Drake took out this thing is not an ordinary compass, its role is to help the owner find what he wants to find, as long as the distance is not more than 500 meters, it can accurately point out the direction of what its owner wants to find, this is Drake deliberately from the auction place with a lot of money to buy strange things, through it, Drake does not know how many gold and silver treasures he has obtained at sea, I don't know how many treasures buried by his predecessor have been easily obtained by her, and now Drake also hopes that the objects in his hands will find the evidence of the overlord in this placeγ
However, now Drake is destined to be disappointed, the compass did not play the role it should have, but kept spinning in Drake's palm, but there was no intention of stopping at all.
"Damn...... How can it fail......"
Looking at the small compass in the middle of his palm, which was completely abnormal, Drake hurriedly put it away, it didn't have any effect, if it still broke like this, it would be worth the loss.
If the compass is not effective, it will undoubtedly be very difficult to find the evidence of the hegemon in this place, in these libraries full of books.
As for Drake, she was only one step away from her final goal, but she was stuck on the doorstep, and she would not be reconciled, so she set her eyes on the old man.
But I didn't wait for her to speak......
