Chapter Ninety-Seven: The King's Shadow
Stormwind, Free Library.
The Liberty Library is one of the more famous buildings in Stormwind, and its exterior is made of quaint obsidian, and the accumulation of history is precipitated under the simple and unpretentious shape.
It covers a large area, the size of a block, and its architecture is so different from the surrounding that it has been said that the Liberty Library has a longer history than Stormwind, and even stood on the land during the Dry Bones Age.
Even the Lich King of the Age of Dry Bones can't go back to the history of the Free Library.
The quaint black walls were full of traces of time, and in front of the library there were layers of steps, these steps were very strange, faintly exuding coercion, and someone had once attacked with violence, which could not be destroyed.
Upon walking up the stairs known as the "intellectual steps", one can see twenty-four enormous and delicate pillars, carved with hazy frescoes that only those who have been recognized by this ancient library are entitled to see.
It has always been a mystery what the interior of this library is like and how many books it contains.
Because anyone who wants to visit this library has to answer three questions from the gatekeeper.
However, there have always been rumors that this library contains a vast amount of knowledge, and the scholars who enter this library will not be able to read a small half of their knowledge in their lifetime.
Regardless of the rumors, this library is one of the few mysterious places in Stormwind City in Rhodes' eyes.
Rhodes asked himself if he could answer the three questions he called the "Door of Truth", but he had another way to get into the library.
It can be said that the foundation of this library is even stronger than that of Stormwind City.
Don't look at the fact that Stormwind rules the land now, and the current administrator of the library is also a legendary powerhouse, but Rhodes knows very well that he is only a administrator, and this free library is not something that a legendary administrator can control.
Let's just say that in the later history of Stormwind.
Before Elsa made an epic declaration in the Battle of the Abyss, Stormwind was attacked by demigods, and at that time, the great sages of Stormwind had fallen.
When the green and yellow are not connected.
Out of the Free Library came a gray-haired, senile scholar, dressed in the coarsest linen, with a yellow cloudy eye in his left eye, and a rotten quill in his hand, who easily repelled a demigod.
Later, it was rumored that the scholar was also a well-known university scholar in the Ash world.
However, hundreds of years ago, the scholar mysteriously disappeared, and the scholars of the Fort Solomon School, Ash's most famous school, tried to ask the scholar to advance several times, but failed.
You must know that in this world, spellcasters are often in the position of scholars, and an excellent spellcaster must be a mature scholar.
Only a rigorous and truth-seeking academic attitude can become an excellent scholar.
And in this wonderful world, once the scholar grows to the end, these weak beings who have insight into the rules of the multiverse will become extremely powerful, and it can be said that a legendary university scholar, their methods are often unable to resist even the rank casters.
Therefore, the legendary level of scholars in Ash is less pitiful.
It was also at that time that people discovered that this free library was not simple, and there was even that kind of forum boss who used various props and knowledge behind Aisha, the queen of the storm, to deduce a terrible thing.
That is, many of the Ash scholars who disappeared in history are living in this library.
It is no coincidence that many scholarly theories that should have disappeared have regained their light in Aisha's hands.
For example, the ground rail technology laid by the [Ground Rail Center], for example, a lot of engineering drawings...... The manuscripts of those amazing scholars that are short-lived in history, Aisha can take them out.
This in itself reveals the news that there is definitely a deep hidden foundation in this library.
Outside the Free Library.
The two figures were calmly strolling through the war-torn streets.
"Well, little girl, think about it, do you have any wishes or wishes?" asked an old man with a strange appearance and a very strange robe in front of the girl next to him.
The old man wasn't like the people of the Shadowlands, and to be precise, he wasn't like the people of Ash's Western race.
With white hair, the old man had a beard like a goat, and his hands were on his back, and the old man was in good spirits, different from the old age of Ash's Westerners, the old man was wearing a blue robe, and his demeanor was full of a certain style.
He turned out to be an Oriental.
The girl standing beside him was actually Aisha, who had not been seen for many days.
There was no fluctuation on Elsa's calm face, and she smiled and shook her head when she heard the old man say this.
Rumble!
At this time, a huge tentacle raged, and countless branches stretched out from the tentacles, frantically whipping the surrounding creatures, and the evil aura that erupted was terrifying.
What was surprising was that the huge tentacle seemed to be being dragged by something, shrinking into the ground, and the frantic writhing was more like a final struggle.
"Hehe, it looks like the night watchman under the ground is going to call it a day, but these night watchmen are really not as good as the generation." The old man stroked his beard and looked indifferently at the scene of the earth shaking in front of him.
Click!
A roaring monster burst out of some dark corner, and when it saw that it was about to pounce on the old man, he suddenly saw that the monster was like glass, and suddenly cracked.
Elsa's body appeared behind the monster's wreckage, and she was retracting an ordinary stick in her hand.
"The skills are good, but in the eyes of the old man, there are a lot of loopholes, so it's better to guide the old man, how about it?" The old man looked at Elsa's stick and asked with a smile.
Aisha still smiled and didn't say anything.
"Hmph, look down on old decay?" The old man blew his beard, proudly lowered his hand, and said, "Back then, I once instructed the Lu Feng Xian Halberd Method in Dragon City, and Li Taibai of the Jixia School Palace also asked me!" ”
The old man's tone and style of speaking were very strange, slightly different from the way Aisha was familiar with speaking, but the meaning of his obedience probably meant that he had instructed many strong people.
But none of this seemed to move Elsa either.
"Alas," the old man looked at Aisha, his eyes shining with wisdom, "that's it, that's it." ”
The old man, whose eyes seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts, also seemed to see that Aisha was not here, nor was she forced, and she was not talking too much along the way.
All the way from the Free Library.
Aisha and the old man are like strolling in their own back garden, the girl's expression is calm, the old man is proud, the old and the young have an inexplicable temperament, that temperament is fascinating.
…………
In front of the tavern.
Rod looked at Connie coldly, and the killing move in the ring was about to be launched.
Bang!
A wooden stick swung up, and the resentful spirit that rushed up in front of him was actually scattered by the ordinary wooden stick.
"Shhh
Seeing this scene, Rod was a little surprised, "Actually killed the Wraith with pure physical damage!" Who's coming?! ”
Followed by.
Rhodes saw an even more astonishing scene.
A blonde girl came slowly, the girl was wearing a simple long dress, her delicate face was as calm as water, and she tied her long golden hair into a ponytail at will, and she was holding the ordinary wooden stick in her hand.
Looking at the girl, Rod was a little stupid for a while.
What a picture that is.
Behind it, a huge evil tentacle raged, the light of magic shone brightly, and the ruins and flames turned into a gray main background.
A blonde girl with blue eyes, pure and beautiful, and a calm temperament like water.
Looking at Rod's tired figure, the girl casually held the wooden stick in front of her and looked at him quietly, smiling in her watery eyes.
Seeing this girl's figure, Rhodes couldn't help but think of the singing and crying hero on the bloody defense line.
"Oh, it's good you're back. Help me take care of my sisters, I'm a little ...... Tired. ”
Rod glanced at the girl, the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously, sleepiness welled up in his heart, and his figure stepped forward.
Bang!
After many days of fighting, from the moment I saw the girl, the tight string was finally loosened.
Before Rod fell asleep, the corners of his mouth were still raised.
For at this moment he saw the shadow of the king, but not all.
That girl is that person after all, even if she doesn't have the holy sword, she still has the same demeanor with a wooden stick in her hand.
Without the tiredness under pressure, without the silver-white armor, without the resolute eyes like iron, Rod's consciousness told him that this girl in a long dress and a smile like a flower was the most beautiful her.
