The battle was over, and their plan for a tour of the city continued.

Evan and Krell, who were not injured, walked down the tree-lined street in the middle of Newinn Harbour.

The tall towers and slender columns of the city's towers, the Gothic buildings in black tones have a strong exotic atmosphere, and the squares, churches, theaters, parks, etc. all tell the story of the city's prosperity and wealth.

The avenue is lined with trees on both sides and is very neatly maintained.

Historically, the countries of the mainland have suffered several large-scale epidemics. The citizens of the city, driven by the Royal Society of Medicine, have long been aware of the close relationship between hygiene and health.

At least in the rich area, administrative area, church area, business district and other public areas are still very secure.

In Aven's eyes, Port Newinn, as the largest port city on the west coast of the kingdom, and Gabrid, where the Third Fleet is stationed, can be said to be good at each other.

Gabred is the kingdom's closest port city to the New World, and one of the most important bridgeheads of the Age of Discovery, which began two hundred years ago.

Newinn Harbour, on the other hand, has a more political function, as it is home to the Royal Naval College, home to the First Fleet, which is under the direct control of the Crown, and is home to the Adventurers' Guild and the Sea Hunters' Guild at Phaletis.

"Adventurers' Guild?"

Through Krell's introduction, Evan developed a strong interest in these two civil society organizations.

In addition to the logistics and intelligence support of the government's own system, these two unions are responsible for the functions of introducing crews, buying and selling intelligence, exchanging resources, and issuing tasks, and are also the strong backing for the survival of many wild transcendents.

Although there is some overlap in the functions of the two families, they often hold together for warmth, and they are behemoths that even the kingdom officials cannot ignore.

Therefore, the prosperity brought by the flow of people in Newinn Harbor is also inevitably mixed, even with the strong suppression of the First Fleet and the Naval Academy, law and order has always been a big headache for the consuls.

"What, are you interested in the Adventurers' Guild?"

Seeing Evan stop in front of a magnificent white marble building, Krell, who acted as a tour guide, couldn't help but ask.

"Although there is a threshold for registering an adventurer, a certain number of years of sailing experience is required, and at least two letters of recommendation from members. But for a full-fledged knight, none of this is a problem.

In addition, the Adventurers' Guild's quest hall will release some quests for members to take on from time to time, from finding objects and people to hunt down pirates, exploring unfamiliar waters, hunting specific demonic creatures, and more. The pay is not bad, well, if you're short on money. ”

Krell is the head snake of Newinn Harbour, and he knows all about the secrets.

"Let's talk about it later, when you return to the fleet after the short training, you may not have a lot of time to participate in the expedition. When Evan stopped to watch, he only had occasional feelings.

After all, more than a hundred years ago, the ancestor of the Garot family started as an ordinary adventurer and established the family from scratch.

Most of the Baron Galiot and male members of the family were senior members of the Adventurers' Guild.

"That's right, Krel. I've heard that the Royal Naval College has a very well-stocked library, do you know how you can borrow it?" asked Aven, seemingly inadvertently, to Krell.

"Anyone can enter a public library as long as there are students. You're talking about the legendary 'Shadow Library' that houses countless mystical knowledge, right?

Indeed, there is such a place where any student in the school and the Royal Navy who has obtained a guarantee can apply for a loan, and if it can pass the review, it can obtain a lifetime reading qualification.

Even after graduating, you can come back here at any time to borrow books. ”

Evan just asked casually, but he didn't expect Krell to know about this place, and obviously had a deep understanding, so he continued:

"It's just that no one knows what they judge of applicants. There are teenage children who have just entered the school and their applications are approved as soon as they apply, and there are senior professors at the college who have been rejected for decades in a row.

Anyway, don't get your hopes up too much!"

Speaking of which, Krell's face was a little strange, and it was obvious that there was a story in the middle.

"Yes? I wanted to give it a try, but it was just a letter of application anyway, and it was nothing if I failed. "One of the main goals of Evan to enter the Royal Naval College is to enter this library and make up for his weak occult knowledge, so naturally it is impossible to give up casually.

"Well, the Shadow Library's management office is on the seventh floor of the Clock Tower, and you'll need to drop in your application in person, and someone there will take care of it.

In fact, this is not a secret in the academy, and the outstanding students in the academy will be informed of the existence of the shadow library if they are approved by the professor.

It's just that although it is located inside the academy, it is completely parallel to the school, and although my grandfather used to be a professor in the academy, he didn't know much about this library, and it can be said that it is one of the most mysterious places in the academy. ”

Krell didn't pour cold water on Evan anymore, and told him all the information he knew, but he was obviously not very optimistic about him.

The rest of the tour continued, just to see the flowers and flowers to get a general understanding of the city, and after having lunch together to get closer, the two of them quickly returned to the college.

The training session will soon begin, and it's time to make the necessary preparations.

......

"Tread .. Trample.. Tread .."

In the darkness, Aven took a well-prepared application and climbed the stone steps of the clock tower.

The clock tower has a circular stone staircase along the granite walls, and each floor has a small window the size of a head, and even if the oil lamp is lit, there is a dark and mysterious atmosphere.

One can't help but slow down your breathing, so as not to disturb some terrible being that is sleeping in the dark.

Just the second day after visiting the city, Evan, who had already received information from Krel, had no patience to continue waiting, and was ready to submit the loan application as soon as possible before the start of school.

He can't wait to embrace the mysterious wizarding world...

Climb the stairs upwards.

Walk all the way to the end of the steps on the seventh floor, in front of the oak-clad bronze door with a very old sense of age.

The heavy wooden door is carved with a relief of a large violet pattern, and a glowing eye grows in the middle of the vivid violet flower, which is less like a meaningless decoration and more like a symbol of mysterious significance.

Staring at the pattern for a while, Ai Wen didn't find the corresponding thing in his memory, so he didn't think much about it, and knocked on the door gently.

Knock, knock, knock...

"Come in, the door is unlocked!" A hoarse sound like the friction of iron pieces sounded behind the door, almost beyond the limit of the timbre that human vocal cords can produce, and it was very uncomfortable to listen to the ears.

With Aiwen's self-esteem and mental endurance, he still felt as if thousands of ants were squirming past his ears, and he couldn't help but shiver.

Before he saw anyone, he already had some not-so-good associations about the existence behind the door. Just glancing at the application in his hand, Evan stiffened, pushed the door and walked in.

Squeak –
