Chapter 19: The Book of Mystery Magic

The soldiers who massacred the captives were eventually dealt with according to military law, and the revolutionary prisoners were used on the spot as laborers in the excavation of the ruins of Fort Saint-More.

Just when Huang Luofeng was busy in the ruins of Fort St. More, a special guest came to the house of his swordsmanship instructor.

"Captain Rennes......"

The speaker was a middle-aged man wrapped in a brown linen cloak, with a resolute face like a knife and an axe, and a cross-sword behind him.

"How many times have I told you, don't call me the head of the regiment." Wren interrupted, "I quit the Order decades ago, and I don't want to see you anymore, so you'd better not bother me in the future." ”

"Okay." The middle-aged man nodded, "Mentor Wren, I'm here to say goodbye to you this time. ”

He sighed and said: "Originally, our revolutionary plan was close to success, but unfortunately some conspirators helped Louis XVI come up with an idea, which caused the situation we had worked so hard to manage to come to naught. Just today, the castle of the Knights in Paris was occupied by the king's army, but we planted a lot of explosives before leaving, hehe, I think it will be a big surprise for them, hoping to blow up the person who spoiled our good deeds. ”

"It's a bad thing for you, not 'us.'" Wren frowned and waved his hand unceremoniously, "Are you here to talk this nonsense to me?" Then you can leave. ”

"Mentor Wren, you are also my teacher, the former head of the Knights Templar, who once fought for God in glory." The middle-aged man accentuated his tone, "Don't you really care about us, the Knights, at all?" ”

After a brief silence, Wren spoke: "Times have changed, and the Louis dynasty today is not the Capetian dynasty that destroyed the Knights, so why should you be obsessed with revenge?" Wouldn't it be better to devote energy and resources to rebuilding the Order's glory and its original goals? ”

"Perhaps, you're right." The middle-aged man sighed again, "But you know, I had to. ”

"I understand, that's why I quit the Order in the first place." Wren patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder and said, "Anthony, it's not easy for you all these years, it's been hard. ”

"What you left in the Knights, I brought it."

With that, Anthony walked out of the room, unloaded a package from his horse, and placed it on the table in Wren's room.

"Goodbye, then, Mentor Wren." The middle-aged man bowed and saluted.

Wren smiled and waved, "Be careful on the road." ”

A week later, the excavation team of the ruins of Fort St. Maur made great progress.

They first discovered the Knights Templar's treasure room, and although most of the remaining treasures had been destroyed in the explosion, they could still sort out valuable parts such as gold, silver, and gemstones, as well as small objects such as coins, from the remaining wreckage, which could be regarded as a way to recover some profits.

The situation in the next stack was much worse, however, because the paper and parchment were flammable, so most of the books in the collection had been reduced to ashes, with only a few fragments of pages mixed in the ashes and rubble.

When the people in charge of the excavation found that many of the words on the fragments were describing occults such as heretics, magic, and witchcraft, they immediately sent someone to inform Huang Luofeng—after all, they felt that these books involved the supernatural realm, and the Prophet should know something about it.

Huang Luofeng was very excited after receiving the notice and immediately rushed to the excavation site.

He looked at the fragments he had gathered, some of them depicted magic circles, some seemed to describe some kind of pagan deity, and some even recorded a part of a witchcraft.

It seems that this was a secret vault used by the Templars to seal forbidden books, and the Templars captured a large number of wizards and heretics, but they did not destroy all the looted books, but chose to store them in their underground library.

It can be seen that even the Knights Templar are not all devout warriors of faith, and there are still people who have their own small calculations.

"It's a pity......" he sighed, shaking his head.

If these books were all preserved, Huang Luofeng would be able to gain a lot of occult knowledge from them, and maybe he could also learn magic and witchcraft, according to the setting of the infinite stream novels he had read before, the cost of magic skills was quite expensive.

Suddenly, Huang Luofeng felt that he had stepped on a hard object under his feet.

Kindness?

He leaned down and used his hands to remove the ash and rubble that covered him.

A strange-looking book was revealed, the cover of the wild atmosphere, like the material of gray rock, carved only a few unfamiliar letters, without any ornamentation, and without the slightest trace of damage.

The fact that it was able to survive explosions and flames is a testament to the extraordinary nature of this book.

, adventure, found a treasure!

Huang Luofeng was overjoyed and reached out to pick it up.

Predictably, the book is heavy to begin with, weighing almost two bricks.

He flipped through the book casually, revealing a confused expression.

The letters used in this book were strangely and mysteriously different from the widely used Latin alphabet, and they were not automatically translated into Chinese in his mind.

You know, when he reads those French books, although he doesn't know the French words in the books, he can clearly understand the meaning of them.

Huang Luofeng speculated that this might be some kind of special alphabet that was used to record secrets that could not be passed on, so that ordinary people would not be able to understand even if they got the book. The people who wanted to come to the Knights Templar probably didn't take it with them because they couldn't read it and didn't know the goods.

Then, he tried to use the identification function of the black ring.

[Name: "???? 》】

[Type: Cheats (Magic)]

【Grade: Gold】

[Synopsis: This is an Atlantic magic book that you can translate for Omega Points, or you can use it as a collectible.] 】

“「????」 What the hell? 'It's an Atlantic magic book'...... The introduction is really brief, and this identification is too weak. Huang Luofeng rolled his eyes in his heart and couldn't help but complain.

"But the level of this magic book turned out to be a gold grade, and it's really lucky, is this a special rare treasure that can only be obtained by triggering the hidden plot? Otherwise, the devil knows what is hidden here. ”

Huang Luofeng was still quite excited about the results of the appraisal, because learning magic was his dream in the second year of secondary school. He used to like to choose a magic profession when he played games, and now that he has become a Skywalker in the Paradise of the Heavens, he also wants to take the route of psionic energy and spells in his heart.

The magic book he obtained by accident can undoubtedly give him a higher starting point.

In order to confirm whether there were any other surviving books, Huang Luofeng simply sat next to him and supervised the work of the excavators. However, until the sun rises and the work of cleaning the library is over, nothing of value has been reproduced.
