Chapter 306: The Door I Opened
Director Werner nodded, "It's true that no one can touch that book, but it's not that there's no way to get it off the shelf. You can follow me to see the specific situation. ”
He stood up and walked out the door.
The assistant to the curator, Bachelor Conrad, was not so reluctant, and followed two steps over and said, "Curator, do you really want to show them that book?
Before he could finish speaking, the half-giant Linde sneezed cooperatively, shaking off a decorative statue on the side of the corridor and shattering it on the ground.
At this moment, Bachelor Conrad's face became even more gloomy.
"Conrad, they're here to seek knowledge and truth, have you forgotten?" said Director Werner, who paused and turned to ask solemnly.
"Of course they haven't forgotten, but they're pirates on Tata Island!" Conrad still didn't want to budge.
Curator Werner said lightly: "Don't worry, if Captain Lester really wants to rob us, it doesn't matter if you oppose it." Now, people are very polite to borrow books to read, as a library, do we have to turn people away?"
"But......" Conrad was still struggling.
Werner went further: "Don't forget, Captain Lester can read words that you and I don't recognize!"
After saying that, he ignored his assistant's objections and led Luca and the others all the way to the second floor of the library.
"Also, do you have to climb the stairs?" Luca's voice trembled, he now missed the water ladder on the Silent Reaper, which was similar to an elevator.
To add insult to injury, Werner walked up to the second floor, walked a short walk down the hallway, and after turning a corner, there was an upward staircase in front of him.
"May I ask?" Lukka frowned, "where the hell is that book?"
Werner smiled and said, "Don't worry, don't go any further. I can't afford to toss this old bone. ”
He walked up the stairs, from the right to the back of the detour, pointed to the small space at the corner between the stairs and the wall, and said, "Here it is." ”
In Luca's vision, such an extraordinary and mysterious book, if no one could take it off the shelf, should at least be kept in a room somewhere.
But now, there was only a deformed wooden door in front of him, and the stairwell behind him looked like a place to store mops and brooms.
Seeing Luca's puzzled face, Director Werner explained: "It's not that we don't value books enough, it's just that this book has been stored here since I took over the library. It's not that I haven't thought about moving it somewhere else, let alone moving it, and for so many years, no one has been able to open this door so easily. ”
"How do you know it's a book without opening the door?" Luca asked.
"Every three years, on a summer evening, the door opens on its own. Only that night could we enter this cubicle and study it for hours. Curator Werner said.
"That's right, I had the pleasure of seeing it once when I was in this library, studying history with Director Werner. Mores said.
Phil had been sitting on Linde's shoulder, when he suddenly bent down, in a very awkward position, leaned into Luca's ear, and said loudly: "Every three years, summer!
Lukka was caught off guard, and his ears rang. He pushed Phil's head away and plucked his ears with his fingers for a long time before nodding and saying, "I know what you're going to say." Every three summers, the door can be opened when the wizarding world is closest to here. ”
Director Werner didn't understand a word, and just as he was about to speak, Luca pointed at Mores and said, "What's going on, go back and ask the knight." ”
"This thing should be affected by the radiation energy of the wizarding world, so it will be temporarily released from the closed state. Phil speculated.
"Yes, the last time this door could have been opened was three days ago?" Lukka asked Timo Werner, looking up.
"That's right. "How many incredible things he said now, the curator is not surprised.
Master Conrad sneered beside him and said, "So, you can't see it if you want to see it now, unless you plan to wait here for three years." ”
"Not necessarily. Lukka walked around the stairs.
"Hey, you're not going to tear down this staircase, are you?" said Conrad, nervously.
"Of course not," said Luca, "I guess Curator Werner has probably had the idea of tearing down the stairs for so many years, right?"
Curator Werner sighed and said, "Of course. Not only me, but my former curator and my former curator have tried, but near this stairwell, there seems to be an invisible barrier protecting us, and we don't know where to start. ”
"Yes," said Maester Conrad, "you have come here to find a book that you can't even see, and you have made a trip for nothing." ”
Lukka stopped at the door, turned around and said with a smile: "Just because you don't know what to do doesn't mean I can't open this door." ”
In the circle he had just walked, he had clearly sensed that around this small cubicle, energy from the magical world was constantly flowing. Although there is not much energy, and it has not formed a complete magic circle, at most it is only a primordial state enchantment, but it is more than enough to block the prying eyes of the ocean world.
This barrier is affected by the radiation of the wizarding world, and when you feel the influence of energy of the same origin as you, it will lose its effect for a short time.
And Lukka himself, holding the amethyst staff in his hand, has the power of illusion and the power of plastic energy lurking in the spiritual starry sky. He stood here, himself an existence full of magical energy, and he was many times stronger than the little radiation far away from the magical world.
Silver Dragon Thea obviously knew this, she stood behind Luca, looked at the wooden door in front of her, and then at Luca, and finally couldn't help asking, "You have so much magic on your body, why doesn't that door move?"
Lukka was also very strange, he had just let the magic flow flow around him, and even Thea felt it, and it stands to reason that the door should have opened immediately.
He looked at it carefully, and the barrier in front of him had indeed been dispersed by him, but the door was still tightly closed.
"Well, can I remind you?" said Director Werner softly, "even if there is no lock on the door, you have to push it." ”
"Didn't you just say it opened the door on its own?" Lukka almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.
"Rhetoric, that's just a rhetorical method. By the way, the building of this library is a little old, and many of the doors are a little deformed, so you have to use a little more force when you push the door. Timo Werner said.
