No, no, no, the building that was supposed to be in this location is gone.

Spurges's mouth was wide open, and he stayed where he was for a long time, but he finally calmed down, found someone nearby and asked, and the results of the inquiry made him even more shocked.

The bookstore he described didn't exist on this street at all......

At first, he didn't believe it, but when he asked several people in a row, the answers he received made him almost feel a sense of fear.

Yes, there was no used book store at all, and the location he described was a grocery store that had closed a few years ago, and it should have been empty.

This, this is illogical, and if so, then where did the book in my hand come from?

The more he thought about it, the more his scalp tingled, and he felt a chill climb up his spine, little by little, as if moving upward.

"Who?"

He suddenly felt someone staring at him from a distance, but when he turned around, there was no figure behind him, only a wide road.

Is it a delusion again?

Recently, have you been a little suspicious?

However, this book is really weird, so since the bookstore is not there, let's use another way to find out the source!

If you were a different person, you would probably be afraid to throw away the book, but Sburgers is a scholar after all, although he feels weird, but he will not be afraid, as a scholar, his desire to explore makes him not throw away the book, but choose to continue the investigation until he finds the answer.

He first went to the university and asked a colleague who studied ancient books to see what he thought.

"It's not very well preserved, there is no cover, and the author's byline here is illegible, and the copyright year is 19██. The book may have been a privately sold manuscript, but the paper was made of cotton and linen, had a neutral pH, and contained calcium carbonate that prevents acid formation. So it's a long time to keep......"

His colleague flipped through the book and shook his head.

"I can't look it up, but I can look it up for the isotopes of the book. Analyzing its composition and starting from the details can find out the source of the zuò, which may help you a little. ”

"Thank you so much!"

Although there was no result, the other party was willing to help, so Sburgers was also very happy.

Back home, Sburgers was not idle, and he began to investigate the civilization of "daevites" on a website dedicated to history and scholarship.

Of course, normally speaking...... An alternate pseudo-historical record, it is impossible to leave any traces in the number of jù libraries, but Sburges does not think so.

The reason is very simple, some depictions of the Daevi race. Some of the descriptions are more like biographies than mere historical documents. Whether it is the description of horrific ceremonies, war scenes, or daily life, everything is recorded in detail and in detail. Even the life stories of some prominent figures in the kingdom, including their dates of birth and quotes from them, are all recorded.

The only possibility that Sburgess could not have created such a detailed pseudo-historical record was that the original author had written the manuscript based on a very specific Old Kingdom.

So. The direction of his own search can be started from this aspect, and he called up a large number of records on the history of ancient civilizations in Central Asia. Then analyze them one by one in detail.

Three days later, Sburgess, who had found nothing, was taking notes on his computer, intending to record his investigation of the manuscript on the computer, but at this moment, a new message appeared in the search for information.

"An archaeological survey conducted by the Moster Survey Mission in Iran in Iran's Baluchistan province uncovered an amazing ancient site......"

This message details the discovery of a new site by an archaeological team, with all indications. This site is an ancient kingdom that has not been discovered in the past.

Sburgess's eyes widened at this time, and he suddenly found a strange problem, the so-called ancient civilization site, in terms of unearthed artifacts and architectural style, was unusually similar to the Daevites civilization recorded in the book in his hand.

"It's more than similarity. It's simply weird, how can it be so similar to the kingdom that Daevites describes that it was built in the neighborhood, this book ...... Is it really just a pseudo-historical record? ”

The deepening of his doubts gave him an inexplicable preoccupation, and at the same time, Sburges always got up and stared at the window, as if someone was watching him nearby.

But...... Outside his window was a man-made lake full of greenery. There couldn't be anyone there spying on him, and for the sake of the angle, he could tell almost at a glance that it was the case.

(Is it my delusion?) ）

He sighed, and just then, his phone rang.

Sburgers took the phone and found out that it was his colleague calling.

"Hey, there's something to inform you, it's about that book......"

A colleague reported the results of the test to him.

"Anyway, judging by the titration analysis, spectral analysis, isotope testing, this book may not have been published in 19██, it may have been from the Middle Ages......"

"The Middle Ages?"

"Yes, it's been longer than we think, but it's a little strange, judging from the way it is decorated in modern times, could it be because of the redecoration......

His colleague was talking to himself, and he seemed puzzled.

"Another thing, although the cover of the book is damaged, it may have been made of human skin as a material, and there are some ink marks on the book, and there are also human or animal blood for book liquid, which is really a strange book."

Sburges's scalp was numb for a while, and the human skin book did exist, he had heard it before, in the past era, some perverted collectors took the human skin collection book as an honor, and there were often rumors of murder and skinning in the past, but he didn't expect that the book in his hand would be made of human skin.

He took a deep breath and flipped through the book again to the last page, and both eyes almost popped out.

On the last page of the book, the text began to increase again, as if someone had secretly written a few more letters on the book without him noticing.

Sburges trembled, he couldn't take it anymore, or rather, the string of reason in his head had been broken.

He grabbed the book, yelled "Falk oil", and threw it directly from the third-floor apartment window and landed on the lawn below.

Underneath the lawn, Mrs. Linda's Labrador Retriever was startled at first, but soon, attracted by the book, slowly approached it.

And Sburgess, who thought he was free from the shackles, finally calmed down.

The whole world is finally clean at this moment!

Relieved that he had dropped the book, Sburges sat down on the fluffy couch, poured himself a rum spill, and drank it.

The alcohol soothed his spirits and relaxed his nerves, which had been tense.

"It's a nightmare, get rid of that damn thing, I should enjoy my vacation for well." He comforted himself with his own words, and one of his cup-holding hands was still trembling.

Woohoo!

An unusually terrible scream came from downstairs, and Sburgs's heart moved, and he hurried to the window, where he saw a shocking scene, the head of the beautiful Labrador with beautiful fur hit the stone brick wall, and burst open like a watermelon, and a large amount of thick blood flowed down, soaking the strange manuscript in a pool of blood.

Sburgers fell into an ice cellar, and he intuitively felt that the dog's accidental death had nothing to do with the book.

He put down his glass, rushed downstairs, and came under his window.

(This dog is dead, damn it, it's Mrs. Linda's favorite!) ）

It was a lovely puppy, who would have thought it would die so miserably, but at this point, Sburgers could do nothing, he picked up the book on the ground, and turned the pages open with trembling fingers.

Hell, it's obviously soaked in blood, why is this book not stained with any blood. The moment he started, he sensed that something was wrong.

However, when he opened the book, something even more terrifying happened.

On the blank page at the end of the page, letters, words, and symbols are appearing one after another, as if a ghost is writing a book.

"Ahh

He let out a small scream, threw the book in his hand down, and the blood on the side naturally poured over, as if absorbed by the book, and gradually disappeared.

"It'...... It's sucking blood, this damn Satan, this devil! Sburgess's face changed wildly, and he quickly picked up the book, checked the last page, and found that a new chapter had been completed.

At this juncture, he finally understood...... This is a book of demons that automatically completes its own history.

Wait, if you think about it from this point of view, the book is completing the historical record, and the daevites civilization is just an alternate history, that is, when the book is constantly being completed, this alternate pseudo-historical record, can it be said that ...... It will be reflected in the real historical environment.

Rumble!

His mind boiled because Sbergs, a historian, thought about the horror of this. He swallowed his saliva and rolled his head a little, if this was the case, what would the existing history become......

You must know that reality is driven by a series of histories, and any historical changes that occur in the past will cause a chain reaction of the entire long river of time, which is the butterfly effect in time and space...... (To be continued......) R1292
