After a complicated lunch, Merlin left Sister Lynn's villa alone.

As for Alice, she stayed to make up for the lesson, and Sister Lin was going to give her a lecture on some of the basics of magic.

In addition, since there didn't seem to be any class for him this afternoon, Merlin was not in a hurry to go back to the Occult Academy.

Anyway, there was nothing to do when he was idle, so he was going to go to the school's big library first.

Merlin came to Aldrich Academy primarily for the purpose of the library.

Although Aldrich's occult academy is not a good teaching level, this is not to say that Aldrich's achievements in the field of occultism are not good, in fact, the study of occultism here has always been at the forefront of the world, and all this is because the academy has such a large library.

The Aldrich Library was formerly the former National Royal Library.

In the heyday of the Empire, the imperial power was above all else, and everything within the empire belonged to the empire, even the wizards who wielded extraordinary powers.

In order to manage these extraordinary members of the empire and prevent them from doing things in the empire at will, the empire has set up a special department in the past - Solomon's Ring.

The legendary powerful wizard Solomon relied on the ring to drive the 72 demon gods to sit down, and the Empire's intention to set up this special department is naturally obvious, and they want to manage the mysterious side of the empire through this department.

In fact, the plan turned out to be a success.

After all, in that chaotic era a thousand years ago, the Lord of the Flame had just led the Terran to complete the rise and then ascended to heaven by himself, and the second-generation God of War was still fighting at the forefront of the battlefield with those transcendent races, and the situation of the Terran was also considered to be a strong race among the hundred races, and the status of the overlord was not completely stable.

At that time, there was no such secret prohibition as now, and there were some remnants of the transcendent races that were scattered and fled by the God of War all over the mainland.

And to be able to build a great empire that can last for thousands of years in such troubled times, then the strength of the founding emperor Aldrich and his founding fathers can be imagined.

And the wizards of that era were not as united as they are now, and there was no such official organization as the Wizards Association.

In fact, the reason why the Wizards Association was established back then was precisely because the empire was too aggressive and afraid of the authority of the empire, so the wizards had to form an association to join the group to keep warm.

In short, after the commissioners of the empire came to the door one by one to find those extraordinary organizations and wizarding groups and had a deep and friendly exchange, basically all wizarding organizations expressed their willingness to follow the rules of the empire and would never dare to act recklessly.

Even in order to show their sincerity, those organizations have contributed their research results and unique witchcraft to the empire.

In order to accommodate the valuable knowledge collected, the Empire built a large library to store it, and the National Royal Library is now the Aldrich Library.

Aldrich College was later built around this library.

And it is precisely because of that past history that Aldrich's Great Library contains almost all the witchcraft texts of most wizarding schools today.

Although those thousand-year-old classics are certainly not as advanced and perfect as the latest versions of the current organizations, no matter how updated they are, the original core research ideas will basically not change.

With that original text, it is basically a preliminary grasp of the core inheritance of those witchcraft schools.

It's just that the famous Ring of Solomon didn't last long, and in the following millennium, those ruthless founding fathers died one after another, and the heirs had limited abilities, only knowing that they were obsessed with the glory of the past and became stubborn and conservative, and lacked progress.

On the contrary, wizarding organizations such as the Wizarding Association were forced by the empire to become united, and they were ashamed and courageous, and then rose one after another.

In fact, even if there is no Cynthia, it is only a matter of time before the empire falls apart.

The roots of this thousand-year-old tree are rotten.

Well, it's far away, back to the library.

As I have repeatedly emphasized before, the knowledge of this world itself is powerful, and ordinary knowledge is fine, but the power contained in those occult books that record mysteries is not ordinary.

And the empire suddenly got hundreds of thousands of occult books from the major transcendent organizations, or the forbidden books of the Demon Dao, so many mystical knowledge piled together, the power of convergence is unimaginable.

At first, the empire didn't pay much attention to this, but when some people were bewitched by the forbidden books in the library, and were driven crazy by those forbidden knowledge, the library was sealed by the imperial bigwigs.

From then on, only those who were determined not to be seduced by knowledge were allowed to enter the library.

In other words, wizards who pursue the power of knowledge do not want to enter, only scholars who pursue knowledge itself and are not tempted by the power of knowledge.

It is precisely for this reason that Aldrich Academy has become a paradise for scholars who specialize in occult science, and they are here for the forbidden books in this library.

It's just that because of the seal, the current library is isolated into two worlds, one is the ordinary library that is normally used in the surface world, and the other is the forbidden library that is hidden in the inner world and stores the hundreds of thousands of forbidden books.

The reason why the old headmaster Albert, a sage who has been sitting in the school, is actually to guard this forbidden book library, and he is responsible for assessing whether the hearts of those who want to enter the library are strong enough.

But for Merlin, the qualifications to enter are not a problem, after all, this library is actually his home, and he, as the owner, naturally wants to enter, and the old headmaster will not embarrass him.

The real trouble is still the power of knowledge in the library that is enough to distort reality, he doesn't know if his state of mind is qualified, don't go in and be cleared soon after the san value is cleared, it will be a little embarrassing.

Fortunately, even the Forbidden Library pays attention to the classification of books, just as this library has seven floors above ground on the surface, and the library of the inner world, which is the reflection of the surface world, is also a total of seven floors, and the lower the floor, the stronger the power of forbidden knowledge.

And Merlin's goal, the legacy of the brave left by his brave father, is divided into seven points, one on the first floor.

One bite can't make a fat man, and Merlin didn't expect to get all the inheritance at once, he came to Aldrich to be a professor to prepare for a long-term battle.

As long as he slowly adapts to it layer by floor, and takes a little more time, he will always be able to collect all the inheritances in the end.

Merlin wasn't in a hurry to break through, he just came here today to step on the spot first and familiarize himself with the environment.

"Hey, Cinderella, this kid is really studious."

Merlin, who was wandering around the library, saw at a glance the girl who was sitting in the corner holding a book and concentrating on studying.

He thought about it for a moment and stepped forward......
