Chapter 30: Library Play
In the dense flow of people, Lilina pulled another girl and walked briskly.
The girl asked, "Lily, why are you running so fast?" ”
Lilina replied, "Amyla, let's go faster." ”
Turning around a corner, Lilina stopped.
Amila panted: "Huhu, we just finished a swordsmanship class!" You're running so fast, so what the hell are you running so fast? ”
"The secretariat of the student union is about to be transferred from Senior Sister Marlena to a junior like me, how embarrassing it is to meet now."
"What's the matter, little Lily who is not afraid of heaven and earth is afraid of her?"
"I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid! It's just that it's too embarrassing for her to meet now, let her tell me what to say when they meet? ”
"Well, I've convinced you, what a cautious woman."
"There's nothing wrong with prudence." As she spoke, Lilina shoved the practice sword in her hand into Amella's hand. "Help me get it back, I'm going to find my seniors and senior sisters."
Amila smiled: "Senior? Harold Vasa? Is that the man who is prettier than a woman? I really don't understand what little Lily likes about him. ”
Lilina replied very seriously, "He is like a black cat I used to have, and he has a similar personality and demeanor. ”
"Are you serious?" Amyla was amazed.
"Seriously, very seriously. Especially when he's distressed, he's most like my cat's distress. Lilina nodded solemnly.
"Lily, you're such a 'nasty' girl." Amila smiled and shook her head.
"It's a pleasant feeling, you don't understand! Alright, I'll go first. Lilina said as she walked away in the direction of the big training hall.
"Alas, the president gave the secretariat to Xiao Lili, and there will be enough to see in the future!" Amila, a normal girl, stood in place for a while with two training wooden swords, looking very helpless.
**********************************************
Lilina finds Edith and Harold, who are resting in the Great Training Hall, and the three of them join up and go to the library in the middle of the academy.
Lilina looked elated, and the library was well stocked, and Lilina was sure that she would be able to translate the meaning of the sentence copied from the dwarven dungeon today.
After walking for about ten minutes, a group of three people came to the library of the college.
On a winter afternoon, the library of St. Innocent, which belongs to the St. Pheran School of Magic, is approaching the end of the period, and the library that is usually crowded has become a little popular.
Although there are many people who come to the library today to check books and turn over materials, the overall atmosphere of the library is still deserted.
Why is this so? The reason is simple, because this large library, which is also famous on the mainland, covers a very large area!
This library that has survived for more than 600 years is the oldest and largest library in the mainland, which was born more than 400 years earlier than the St. Philan School of Magic. However, over the past 600 years, the library has expanded in size and enriched its collection of books, eventually becoming the largest library on the mainland and the core building of the entire St. Philippine College.
To what extent is she big? According to Lophiel Charest, one of the first to graduate from the Academy of St. Pherland, who later became a famous magician and naturalist a hundred years ago, described in his autobiography how he got lost in the library for a whole day, only to reach the exit of the library at night.
The library has expanded a lot since 100 years ago, and the college eventually had to put maps and signposts in the library to avoid the occasional incident of students getting lost.
To what extent is she ancient? In the past 600 years, natural disasters and man-made disasters have continued on the mainland, and countless classics have disappeared without a trace in wars and turmoil. Only the books kept in the Grand Library of St. Innocent have not been affected in the slightest. People on the mainland found that keeping books in the St. Innocent Library was the best choice for preserving knowledge, so book donations from all over the world have not stopped for hundreds of years, and at the beginning of the establishment of St. Phelan College, alumni from all over the mainland have pushed the trend of donating books to a new peak.
In the past 600 years, countless books that could have been destroyed in the war have been preserved by the Great Library, many of which are older than the library, and some of them can be traced back to the beginning of human civilization on this continent. It can be said that it is not too much to say that this library carries the entire history of human civilization on the mainland.
It is even rumored that the Pope of the past would hide some extremely secret information and forbidden books in the Great Library, and seal them with magic marks.
Of course, there is no evidence for this rumor, but there are some reasons for its existence. Generally speaking, such materials and books that are not suitable for outsiders are not used under normal circumstances, and they are not so much hidden by burying sand in the desert over a long period of time that they are stolen or read by some well-intentioned people.
Now, Harold, Lilina, and Edith are searching for information on Dwarven and Dragon languages in the "Ancient Language Zone" deep on the third floor of the Great Library.
They came to this great library today with the idea of comparing ancient language materials and deciphering the true meaning of the "incantations" in the dwarven dungeon. However, there is no authoritative standard for the vast number of books on dragon and dwarven studies, and Harold is ignorant of the reliability of such materials, and his main task is to climb up and down the four-meter-high bookshelves to get Lilina and Edith the materials they need. Lilina and Edith sat on a bench connected to the bookshelves, flipping through the vast amount of material and exchanging words from time to time.
As time passed, several stacks of tomes gradually piled up at the feet of the two girls. Harold, on the other hand, was too lazy to climb up and down again and again, and simply lay on the wide plank on top of the bookshelf and closed his eyes to recuperate.
If the two girls under the bookshelf needed to read the book, Harold, who was nimble, would lift off the bookcase with a single stretch of his arm or leg and a slight pick of his fingertips or toes.
"If you can lie down, you will never stand, and there is really no one who is too lazy to this extent." Edith was a little tired from flipping through the books, and when she looked up, she saw the guy lying leisurely on top of the high bookshelf, and she was angry.
Although she was saved once by a lazy guy who was on top of the bookshelf, Edith was able to seize the opportunity to run Harold or have to squeeze the habit, and it is estimated that she will not be able to break it in her life.
"I hibernate."
"Hibernation, hibernation. Hmph, are you a snake? Will it hibernate? ”
"Snakes survive in a good way! If you don't eat or drink for a long time, you won't die, and when you go out for a walk occasionally, you will swallow your favorite food, and the cold winter sleep will pass. A trouble-saving and energy-saving way of survival is a good way to survive. ”
Faced with this guy who was arrogant and arrogant, Edith opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
"Senior, please throw down the third book from the left on the bookshelf under you." Lilina, who had been keeping her head down and focusing on researching information, suddenly raised her head and looked up at Harold, who didn't seem to be holding her back from the slightest bit of bickering.
"How many modes does this little girl have? Performance mode, Magic Genius mode, Curious Baby mode, Workaholic mode. In this way, this senior is going to be interested in you. ”
Harold didn't look at the title of the book, and Lisso picked off the tome with the black cover that Lilina had requested, and Edith caught it firmly underneath.
However, it wasn't just a book that fell, something else fell along with it, and Lilina was defenseless, her head covered by something that fell.
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
The two girl's whispers reached Harold's ears almost simultaneously.
Harold jumped off the bookshelf at a rapid pace, resisting the urge to laugh and gently pinched the thing over Lilina's head.
"Look, tsk, you can really play." Harold pinched the fluttering object and shook it. "But it's a really good place, no one comes, and it's exciting enough."
Lilina only then saw what had just covered her head, and her cheeks were instantly dyed a touch of crimson, and in order to hide her blush, Lilina immediately buried her face in Edith's shoulder, but this was a cover-up, and her ears were also dyed with a shy pink, which looked very cute.
Harold was holding a pair of white stockings, yellow in color, looking a little old, with a lot of torn cuts on them.
What the owner of the stockings "played" here, it goes without saying.
"Ahem, why don't you take it away and keep it for yourself?" Edith made a look of disgust, and she looked away and waved her hand at Harold.
"I don't have this particular fetish. I guess the lady who did something interesting here before was also ashamed to wear it out for an exhibition, so she stuffed this residue into the bookshelf. As Harold spoke, he deftly climbed up the bookshelf and tucked the stockings back into their place.
Hahaha, I don't know who the old driver who was playing in the library at the time, otherwise I can still talk to each other.
