In this way, Solam began to 'buy' the books he needed in the sea of books. Solam is not very picky, and he does not refuse any books that are beneficial to territorial construction and people's livelihood projects.
In this way, Solam walked all the way, collecting such books until he reached the edge of the library on this floor.
I have to say that the knowledge monks here are really very conscientious, although the sense of service is a little worse, but in terms of attitude towards books, they are absolutely impeccable, even those books that have not been turned over for hundreds of years, these knowledge monks will maintain them as if they were new.
No one is more paranoid about books than the monks of Candle Castle.
Soram looked at the books in the cart and thought it was almost there. I was about to walk back, but at the moment I turned around, I suddenly found a person like him, pushing a small cart, looking for books everywhere.
This is a handsome and elegant old man, his long white hair without a trace of impurities, is neatly groomed and meticulously draped behind him, although the hair is very long, it has reached the waist, but it does not give people a sloppy feeling. The same goes for his beard, which is long but well groomed. He wore gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and behind the lenses there was a wise and gentle light in his blue eyes.
Although he looks like he is already in his old age, his skin is smooth and fair, like a teenager, and there is no wrinkle on his face, and he is wearing a lake-green silk robe, which shows the indifferent scholarly temperament of the whole person.
Soram glanced at the old man's neat white robe with a pattern tattooed on the cuffs, a blank scroll—the emblem of Ogmar, the god of knowledge. Looks like he should be a follower of Ogmar.
So Soram was not surprised, after all, most of Ogma's followers were scholars, and it was not surprising that they had such a demeanor. Moreover, in a place like the library, isn't it normal to see a believer in Ogma?
Looking at his appearance, the harvest is not small, at least the books in the small cart are almost full. Solam hadn't planned to do much, and a place like the library wasn't a good place to socialize, after all, it needed to be quiet, even if there was no one around. In short, this is not a good place to pick up and chat.
So Solam didn't do anything superfluous, but pushed the trolley back.
But just as Soram passed by him, the old man suddenly stopped Soram.
"Good day, young man, though it is rude, can you help me, poor old man?" Although he is begging for someone, his voice is a gentle and magnetic baritone, which makes me feel good.
Solam is not a good person, but he is not so blind to an old man who asks for help, not to mention that this old man feels good to him, so he doesn't mind it even more.
How, though?
Temperament is really difficult to do, for example, Solam also wants to be like this old man, speaking in a tone that is gentle but not humble or arrogant, and it makes people feel like a spring breeze. Unfortunately, as soon as he opened his mouth, he felt like he had collapsed.
"No problem, what do you want me to do for you, old man?" This sentence is actually no problem, but Solam always feels that compared with others, he seems to be a lot lower.
"What a warm young man." The old man, who looked like Gandalf, stroked his long beard with a smile. The old man's smile is like the warm sun in winter and the cool breeze in summer, which contains friendliness, cordiality, kindness, and pleasure, and many emotions, although not strong, but it is easier for people to naturally feel close.
After the old man sighed, he was not hypocritical, but naturally pointed to a copy of "Detailed Explanation of Continental Geography" placed at the top of the bookshelf and said, "I want you to help me take down that book." I'm too old to climb that high. ”
From the first time he saw this old man, he found that this old man did not have any extraordinary powers, just an ordinary old man. Although this temperament really doesn't look like an ordinary person, Solam doesn't think much about it. There was a saying in my previous life.
'There is poetry and books in the belly', Soram thinks that this is the old man. Although he had only spoken a few words to the old man, Solam was very sure that the old man must be a knowledgeable scholar. This feeling is inexplicable, but Soram doesn't feel abrupt, and can only say that temperament is really hard to describe.
Soram didn't want to refuse, it was a very small thing, and Soram certainly didn't feel anything. So Solam walked over and moved the sliding wooden ladder next to the bookshelf to its location, then climbed up and took the book down.
As he got the book, Soram glanced at it. Klose's Detailed Geography of the Continents, published in NY326. Ooh! It's been a long time!
Solam was directly frightened when he saw the publication date of this book, according to Pheren's chronological habits, NY stands for the year of Nessreel! That is, this book is a book published by Netherel in 326......
This can no longer be described as an antique......
Because, NY326 is also a very, very special year in the Nethrel era.
According to the history of Netherres compiled by various historians, the 326th year of Netherel is one of the most significant moments in the history of Netherel - this year, the Nether scrolls were discovered. This hundred-page tome represents an incredible leap forward in the magic skills of the Nesser, unprecedented in Torrell's history. An era of frenzied learning arose in Nesserrel and lasted until the birth of the nation's greatest archwizards.
From that year until NY554, it is known in history as the Age of Discovery! The era of color resistance! It was also from here that Netherel emerged as the first Grand Arcanist, Congenio.
Congenio was born in 364 and died in 1319 at the age of 955. It was also he who officially started the great era of Netheril!
And this book was actually published before the great Arcanist......
Seeing this, Solam's hands almost trembled. Because this thing really has to be put outside, it is absolutely priceless!
Not a joke, not an adjective, but a fact! This book is worth the price! The era of Netherus has fallen to this day, and the original books drawn in the era of Netherel are basically extinct, and it is estimated that Ogma still has a small amount of preservation, but there are definitely not many. After all, the catastrophe that brought down the entire Netherel Empire ruined too much.
