Chapter 147: The Mystery of the Mirror 16

"The people they are guarding are not actually people, and in the Ice and Snow Kingdom, even if people make mistakes, they will not be locked up in the dungeon. They are guarding the books there, and have you ever heard of books that can sin?" Wood's eyes widened at Professor Seyer's sudden question, the book that would commit a crime Wood had never heard of it, never heard of it.

"Books are dead, they have no soul, how can they sin?" said Wood, surprised.

It's not that these books make mistakes themselves, but what they say. When the contents of the books cannot be known to outsiders, they naturally violate the law. Because those books have magic, they can't be destroyed. So, putting them in a dungeon so that they never can be known and seen by outsiders is a punishment for them. Professor Theye explained, wondering if Wood understood his words, but Professor Theye only explained lightly.

Wood himself may not have realized that the book in his hand had been held backwards from the beginning, and Professor Siye glanced at the book in Wood's hand, the corners of his lips slightly raised.

"How did you feel at the time?" Professor Theyer asked suddenly, visibly seeing the book shake in Wood's hand.

"When, what does it feel?" Wood pretended not to know, but his twinkling eyes betrayed his heart.

"How do you feel when that behemoth comes close to you?" Professor Siye asked again.

"At the time, I just felt so cold when it came close to me, and the air around me seemed to be unusually cold. Also, its sharp claws are scary to look at. And its crimson eyes, like the monster I had last encountered in the woods, they all had the same crimson eyes. If I'm not mistaken, they should be the same, it's just ......" Wood didn't go any further, he didn't know what he wanted to say next, but deep down he always felt a doubt. It's a pity that even he doesn't know what this question is, and this feeling is very complicated.

"It's just what, it's just that you didn't expect that we would let it appear in my illusion and let you encounter it again, right?" Professor Theye struck Wood in the depths of his heart, and Wood stared at him.

Seeing Wood nod slowly, Professor Theye continued:

"Actually, I didn't agree with this idea at the time, but Madame insisted on it again and again, and with Principal Brooke's approval. Because I had promised Principal Brooke before that I would not let you have any accidents in my illusion, I am very cautious about your test this time. When I learned that they were going to let you meet such a behemoth, I secretly informed Wells, and that's why you met Wells in the illusion.

Otherwise, how can you see him in my vision, he has his own mission to do. After Professor Siye said this, Wood realized that even if there was someone who wanted to protect them, it should be someone in their class, not the seniors in the upper class. Because they were completing their own tasks at the time, it was impossible for them to appear in the first grade illusion.

That is, at that time, Wells was in a hurry to feel Wood's side after completing his mission. Would Wood have ...... if Wells hadn't completed his mission at the time, or hadn't arrived at Wood's side in time?

How could it be, if Wells hadn't arrived at the time, Wood was sure that Professor Theye would have thought of something else. Or he'd go over in person, and Wood was sure they wouldn't be harmed in any real way in the illusion anyway.

It's just that Wood didn't understand at this time that even if Wells couldn't get to him in time, Professor Seyell couldn't have gone there himself, because he had more important things to do at that time.

"I see, Wells was able to show up because you asked him to go. I was quite surprised at the time, but when we left the illusion, I forgot about it. Although he knew that he could not be substantially harmed in the illusion, but now that he thinks about it, Wood still has palpitations, because nothing is absolute.

Professor Siye wandered back and forth between the shelves for a moment, as if he hadn't found the book he was looking for, and left the library in a few moments. At this time, Wood realized that he had taken his book upside down, and hurriedly turned it over, and the uneasiness in his heart intensified, Professor Theer would not just come and say a few words to him.

Wood didn't have the heart to read anymore, so he put the book back in its original place and went to find Surie and Mante.

"What, you mean Professor Siye went to the library just now? He never went to that kind of place. Why did he suddenly remember to go to the library? What did he say to you at the time?" asked Su Rui eagerly, Professor Siye would not usually go to the library at all, and if he did, there must be some other reason.

He told me that everything we saw in the illusion was real, including the behemoth we saw. It's just that at that time, because of the illusion, the power of that behemoth was weakened a lot, and there was the secret protection of the professor. Do you know that it was not a coincidence that we met Wells in the illusion, but that Professor Siye had arranged in advance for Wells to come and protect us after completing his mission. Although it has passed, Wood still has some fear when he thinks about it.

"Did Professor Siye tell you that the behemoth was real, and not an illusion or illusion he had created?" Mante asked incredulously, wondering why they would come up with such a way to test them. Mante was terrified at the thought that the behemoth was actually real, but its power had been curtailed at that time. If I knew it was true at the time, I don't know if I would have been as brave as I was then, right?

"Yes, that's what Professor Siye said, and the behemoth was so close to me that I could clearly feel the chill on the other side. If that's all an illusion, I don't believe it. Wood forced himself to stare into the eyes of the behemoth, red eyes that seemed to have something indescribable mixed in with them.
