Bang, bang, books were scattered on the floor, and the shelves were empty.

Gu Jun saw the back of the bookshelf at this time, it was supposed to be a wall, but what he saw seemed to be another space, twisted, viscous, and weird, those different substances, only some of which could be understood. Just as his mind was in a trance, he heard a startling voice: "What are you doing?" ”

In an instant, everything was corrected again.

Gu Jun was already standing on the edge of the bookshelf again, and the books that had just been scattered on the ground were back on the shelves.

"Dr. Armitage." Hannah was unimpressed by Gu Jun's behavior, and was looking at a figure walking briskly not far away.

It was none other than the library's director, Dr. George Armitage, who holds a Ph.D. in history from Miskatonik University, a Ph.D. in literature from Cambridge University, and a Ph.D. in linguistics from Princeton University. The face that is usually calm and peaceful, at this time, is a little panicked, and his steps are quite messy.

Gu Jun looked at the old gentleman, his hair was half white, his face was full of wrinkles, and he was wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses.

"Jem." Dr. Armitage knew Jem Mazelvich, "Don't do that just now. ”

"Doctor, have you read The King in Yellow?" Gu Jun listened and asked, "You're crazy, you're sober." ”

Dr. Armitage sighed, "Come with me. ”

Gu Jun and Hannah followed, and Dr. Armitage walked in the direction of the stairs on the third floor, and the surrounding students were still quietly studying on their own.

Although the men would not have heard, and even if they did, they would have been unimpressed by subsequent corrections, but Dr. Armitage remained quiet, did not speak along the way, walked lightly, and allowed the two to follow order. After a short time, they reached the third floor of the library, and no corrections occurred.

Gu Jun and Hannah have tried before, and if the location and situation are different from the script, they will be corrected.

However, the lines they say can be said by themselves and memorized.

Now, apparently, this is the scene where they followed Dr. Armitage to the third floor of the library to talk.

As long as you don't get out of this scenario, it won't be modified.

Once on the third floor, the silence was even worse, and there were very few students on this floor. Dr. Armitage took the two to his director's office, which was antique, with furniture, utensils, and décor in the style of the old era, and if it weren't for the air conditioning, computers, etc., it would have been possible to say that it was the 19th century.

The doctor poured a cup of tea for each of them, and poured himself a cup.

"Jem, Hannah, I don't know if it's real or projected, or what."

Dr. Armitage took a slow sip from his teacup, "Until then, I had always thought that some of the past was just legends. ”

"Doctor, since you understand the situation." Gu Jun said, "Can you let me take a look at that "The King in Yellow"?" I might be able to find some clues. ”

"Don't worry, I don't think 'The King in Yellow' is the key." Dr. Armitage said, "A few days ago, I didn't know it. But now when I think back to some of my specific things, there are only vague and blank spaces. I do understand that this is another dimension, another space, we are people in the play, and we are governed by a greater force. But I remember one thing, all dimensional and spatial things, related to it. ”

Gu Jun also listened patiently, judging the truth of this doctor's words.

And Hannah next to him, much more patient than him, seemed to have the tea on it.

"My grandfather, Henry Armitage." The doctor continued, the wrinkle on his forehead wrinkled deeply, "He wasn't a curator then, he was an administrator, and it was hundreds of years ago. One day, a strange young man came to the library, dressed in tattered clothes, very tall, and looking like a goat, from the nearby town of Dunwich, named Wilbur-Wheatley. ”

The doctor spoke calmly, but there was a hint of apprehension about the strangeness in his tone.

"Wilbur Wheatley came with an ancient book, the Book of Necronomicon by the Arab madman Abdullah al-Hasad, which Wilbur said had been passed down to him by his grandfather, and that he had come to borrow and copy the Latin translation of the Necronomicon from the library, and to compare the contents to find a missing passage on one of the pages of his translation."

Gu Jun's heart skipped a beat when he listened, "Book of the Necromy"?

The first time he heard about this book was from Xue Ba, and the cult followers of the Laisheng Society used one of these sentences to confuse them.

In the world of heavenly machines, the Necronomicon is also an ancient book, written by an Arab madman, but it is only an ancient legend that no one has ever actually found.

Only a few scattered sentences that claim to be the content of the book have survived.

Later, after having permission, Gu Jun read all those sentences through the database of the Heavenly Machine Bureau, and there was no dark power in them, there were proverbs, strange crazy words, and some prayers for unknown rituals, but later the Spell Department studied them to no avail.

Now, Gu Jun suddenly heard the Book of Necrons, and there are multiple translations, was it originally in the Massachusetts world......

Dr. Armitage added that his grandfather did not allow him to take the Necronomicon with him out of concern about Wilbur-Wheatley's strange behavior, but that Wilbur later went to the University of Cambridge Library in England to fulfill his purpose.

Although there are many translations of the Necronomicon in this world, there is no Arabic original.

Whether it's Mitra or Cambridge, I don't know how many manuscripts are in the collection. In the process of copying, some of the contents of this kind of manuscript will be lost, and some of the content will be artificially hidden and deleted by the author.

It was for this reason that the young man, Wilbur Wheatley, would go around borrowing different editions to complete the book in his possession.

"My grandfather, at the time, didn't know where Wilbur Wheatley really came from." Dr. Armitage's voice was a little lower, "but he saw the contents of the page that Wilbur had copied, and knew that the other party wanted to perform some kind of ritual, to contact a force that threatened to drag the whole world into the abyss. ”

"I also listened to my father, and then something terrible happened."

The old doctor paused, took a sip of tea, but his voice was still getting hoarse:

"Wilbur Wheatley became something half-human, or maybe that was his true face. He attempted to steal the Necronomicon from the library, but ended up dying here, a foul-smelling pile of filthy flesh. However, he also has a twin brother, more of a monster than he is, who wanders around Tunwich, killing and destroying, ready to perform the ritual that their brothers have been preparing for a long time.

My grandfather and two other Mi-University professors were one last time together to stop the ceremony, ending the Wilbur brothers' lives. But I also saw things that ordinary people couldn't see...... My grandfather went insane almost forever, but he was fortunate to regain his senses, and spent his whole life studying and stopping that power......"

Speaking of this, Dr. Armitage's expression seemed a little bitter, I don't know if it was because the tea was too bitter or because of other moods.

When Gu Jun heard this, a lot of emotions were churning, "Doctor, what is the direct relationship between this incident and our current situation?" ”

"That power!" The old doctor suddenly raised his voice, and his old eyes widened, "The power that Wilbur Wheatley is trying to contact is also their brother's father, and it can break any space-time dilemma. ”

Father? Gu Jun was stunned for a moment, "You mean, the Wheatley brothers are a combination of humans and dark forces?" Hannah next to her also changed her complexion.

This was the first time he had heard of such a thing, and he only knew that there were other races, or humans who had been transformed into ghouls and deep divers.

Because of reproductive isolation, there is always one.

"A half-human, half-god body." The old doctor kept a calm face, "The Wheatley brothers are not fully grown up yet, and they are still very young, so my grandfather and they can win." ”

At this point, the doctor pulled out a drawer in his desk and pulled out a page of paper filled with dense text.

The old doctor handed the page to Gu Jun, and he took it and saw it, it was bilingual, English and Latin. The old doctor's eyes became more and more strange, and he said, "This is the page that Wilbur Wheatley was looking for, which I had searched from the Necronomicon based on the information left by my grandfather. ”

That said, Necronomicon is not a blank book in this library.

Gu Jun frowned, looked at the book paper in his hand, as if he saw Chinese, and the more he looked at it, the more chaotic and tightened his heart became:

[We cannot think that human beings are the oldest and ultimate masters of the earth, nor can we think that ordinary life and matter will walk alone in the world.

The old rulers are in the past, the old ones are here now, and the old ones are in the future. The Old Dominators are not in the spaces we know, but in between. The Old Ruler walks silently at the beginning of time, unbound by dimensions, unseen by us.

Yog-Sotos knows the gates. Yog-Sotos is the gate. Yog-Sotos is the key and guard of the gates. The past, the present, and the future are all one in Yog-Sotos. He knew where the Old Dominators had broken in, and where they would break in again. He knows where the old rulers have trampled on the earth, where they will be trampled, and why no one can see them when they are trampled.

Their proximity can sometimes be known by their scent, but they cannot be seen, only by the appearance by which they give birth to offspring. And these offspring are of many kinds, ranging from the most genuine fantasies of man to those as formless and insubstantial as themselves. They only pass through the secluded places of the spoken words and the rituals of the called signs at certain times, without a trace, leaving them to rot.

The wind recited their voices, and the earth murmured their consciousness. They bend forests and crush cities, but neither forests nor cities see the hand of evil. Qadas knew about them in the cold ruins, but who knew about Kardas? The Antarctic ice sheets and sunken islands have stone pillars that engrave their seals, but who has ever seen the frozen city and the giant tower of seals covered with seagrass and barnacles? The great Cthulhu is their cousin, but it has only had a vague glimpse of them.

I?！ Shab Nicholas! You are filthy and should know them. Their hands hold you by the throat, and you still can't see them. Their shelter is right in your locked doorway. Yog-Sotos is the key to the gate, which exists where the spheres meet. The land that man ruled was ruled by them, and they will rule again over the land that man now rules.

Summer is followed by winter, and winter is followed by summer. They wait patiently, for they will eventually regain dominance over the place. 】
