Chapter 587: Reading (I)
...。 Luo Meng didn't ask, now he, Fan Jing is a little tired of not deleting his feelings.
For several days, the weather was gloomy, and according to the owner's prediction, a huge cold storm was coming, which would officially enter the long winter in this northern land.
Romon had no problem with this, and he found a new place in the library.
This city, which happens to be the location of a famous large library, surprised Romon greatly. Of course, there is no reason to give up.
At this time, Luo Meng walked in the library, and the silver adventurers common to the mainland had already qualified him to enter the library.
The style of the library is heavy and quaint, and the main structure is built of marble around it. The walls are also carved in relief, and the rows of bookshelves are full of books.
The glass windows, sometimes between the gaps in the dark clouds, there will be a faint sunlight slanting wide"
Just entered, a young girl greeted her, not very beautiful, but she had a unique temperament, similar to the scholarly temperament on the earth.
"Sir, this is your first time?" said the girl, looking at Romon as she spoke.
, Wanbi
"Yes, first time. "Luo Mengjue, this girl is not simple, she may have a second-level mage level.
"Sir, let me introduce you to the library, the library is divided into five floors, the first floor is a general geography, customs, historical records, and also includes some stories and legends, which you can read for free. ”
"The second layer is valuable expertise, usually the refinement of the first level, and in the second level of reading, you have to pay the price of a copper coin, if you want to take it away. You must pay a deposit of a silver coin, this one, and pay one. The price of a copper coin per day. The girl said.
Romon understood this, and he asked, "Presumably, there is also a backup on the second layer, otherwise the collection will sometimes be lost?"
This question is rarely asked, the girl glanced at Luo Meng in surprise, hesitated for a moment, and then answered: "Yes!"
"Then let's go up and have a look. Romon said.
The library was quiet, and there was a priest of the God of Knowledge patrolling inside, and no one dared to make a noise.
Romon went to the second layer, because it was cloudy, therefore, there was a magic lamp, this magic lamp, Romon had obtained, as long as it was injected with magic power, it could be lit up for hours.
The light of magic, bright but not dazzling. Illuminating the second floor, the entire space is quiet, with only a few people checking and reading the contents.
Romon began to check the books, basically just looking at the names and a little bit at the contents. Moment. He smiled.
"It's good, most of them are books that I didn't get, and it doesn't matter if a few are duplicated, I can add a new batch of books to the family library. Romon thought.
"By the way, transcription is allowed here?" Romon smiled and asked, "Can you hire someone to transcribe?"
The girl's eyes lit up, and she said, "Of course, we provide a scribe here, and each book will be transcribed within a day, and the price of the handwork is a silver coin, using tissue paper, and it costs an additional fee." ”
Transcribing books is also the livelihood of many people, but when the demon disaster explodes, their situation is very difficult.
Romon sighed, this world. Papermaking has been understood, and although the quality of the paper is not high, and it cannot bear the use of spells, parchment paper must be used.
But this is also the progress of the times.
"How many books are there on the second floor?"
"Six thousand four hundred and twenty-seven volumes. The girl replied without hesitation.
"Give me a copy of it all. Romon said, and gave the address: "I hope it will be completed within a week, and if it is not completed, it is okay to give me the books you have backed up first." ”
"Are you sure, sir?" the girl was visibly taken aback.
"Sure Navigation"
"Kesheng. The total cost is estimated to be around 17,000 Silver, and you pay 15,000 Silver Coins first. It's ready to go. The girl thought for a moment. Numbers were given.
Seventeen thousand silver coins, equivalent to 1,700 gold coins, Luo Meng nodded without embarrassment, and said, "I'll pay you later, let's go up to the third floor first!"
"Sir, the third floor is a regulated book, you must be a nobleman, or a mage to enter Guang"
"Rank 10 druid, can you?" said Romon as he flashed his druid's mark.
"Of course, Your Excellency, please come in. The girl's attitude became more respectful.
On the third level, of course, there are many fewer books. To Romong's delight, even a map of the country is available.
"Can you copy the books here?"
"Of course, most of the books here are about strength and skill, but some of them are at least five times more expensive than they can be copied by a magic apprentice. ”
"Shh
"Your Excellency, the books here are all practical and bring power, although for you, it is very superficial, but it is also power, plus the transcription of magic apprentices, of course, it cannot be compared with ordinary transcribers, this price is very fair. The girl saw Romon in his mind and said.
Only,, well, transcribed here, how much does it cost?"
"If you copy them all, there are about 2,140 copies here, and the total price is 25,000
"Alright, copy it all!" Romon waved his hand.
The girl smiled excitedly, this time, the magic apprentices in the whole city have work to do.
In fact, she did slaughter Luo Meng, there are twenty-one copies here, but in fact, there are only about three hundred. You have to be an apprentice of magic to transcribe it. Everything else is the same as the second floor.
"What about the fourth floor?" Romon asked.
At this time, the girl stopped laughing, she thought for a while, and said, "If you are on the fourth floor, you can go up and watch it, but you can't copy it." The fifth floor, if you are a level 10 druid in your home country, you can go up. But you're not, I'm sorry, you can't go up. ”
Dizzy, and the sense of knowledge protection, Luo Meng smiled and said: "Then you can count the second and third layers specifically, by the way, copy the classes of the first layer, all the statistics are completed, report to me, I will pay, I will go to the fourth floor to read now, there is no problem, right?"
Transcription requires not only manual labor, but also the consumption of paper and ink, which must be counted, and such a large number must be reported to the above.
The girl nodded and said, "Go up, and when everything is done, I will come and report to you." ”
Romon smiled and went up.
Compare. ten thousand
Fourth floor. In fact, it is similar to the third layer, except that on each book, there is some faint aura, Romon glanced at it, and felt that most of them were magic books, and only a few were druid books.
Romon was in the druid book area, moving a chair and leaning back to read.
Romon reads for a moment, and suddenly sees a book: "The Road to Eternal Life"
The name was so exaggerated that Romon picked it up and read it.
When I read it, I realized that this is more like a kind of historical record.
"Everyone wants eternal life
"The first prolongation of life was in the barbaric era of antiquity, but there were several kings who ruled for hundreds of years with bloody and cruel means, which was several times the life of a person with an average age of only thirty years at that time. ”
Later, people realized that this was a secret method of blood sacrifice, which was kept secret by the kings. For now, this is not surprising, it is a third-level spell one Vampire's Touch. ”
"The third-level spell Vampire Touch, which can absorb the life force of the other party and transform it into his own temporary life, is only the king of ancient times, and can make it even longer through sacrifices. ”
"This bloody and cruel spell has its limits. Only the maximum lifespan of a person can be reached. One hundred and twenty years old, and was rejected by the gods in the future, the effect was not good, and gradually died out. ”
"With the spread of the times, gradually divided, ordinary believers and pastors, through faith, attained eternal life of the soul. ”
"But for magicians and druids. The quest for eternal life continues. ”
"The second type of light is to strengthen one's body and soul, the explorer is gradually emerging, the priest does not have the ability to gain additional life with increasing level, but the mage and the druid. After the fifteenth level, each level of improvement will increase some lifespan until the force level reaches the limit, according to various records, the life span of people who have reached the force level can reach about the persuasion year. ”
Luo Meng read this and nodded, this is also the common way in the mainland now.
This method of longevity, to put it bluntly, is to strengthen the quality of the soul and body, so that it can have a longer lifespan. ”
"It is said that above level 21, you can perceive the rules and enter the realm of legends. It's just that. For most people, it is impossible to break through the legend. ”
Therefore, after countless researches, two more ways to prolong life were born. ”
"One is the transfer of the soul to another healthy and youthful body, which the mage later thought was too fragile and troublesome. Thus was born the Lich Method. ”
"When a druid reaches level fifteen, he can choose to naturalize his soul, give up the substance, turn into a natural element or elemental life, and be reborn on a certain level of nature. ”
That's the end of the book, and Romon was a real eye-opener.
"You can extend your life from level 15? It's really good!" Luo Meng suddenly paid attention to this: "It seems that it is necessary to strengthen the upgrade, by the way, the last time the call of the wind was called, it felt like it was in the Northland, but now that it is in the Northland, it is too vague, and you must wait for the level to increase!"
This guy from Earth doesn't have any masochistic thoughts that "life is only short and exciting".
Just as Luo Meng was thinking, the girl came in: "Your Excellency, your entire cost is fifty-five thousand silver coins, are you willing to accept it?"
"Well, I'll give it to you when I get to the hotel. "No one would carry that much money with them.
Romon who came out of the library was a little regretful. A one-time cost of 55,000 silver coins has made most of the books in the library copyable.
The only problem is that the fifth floor is not yet accessible and transcribed.
However, it is clear that this has brought a good income to the transcribers in this city, and they will be able to survive this winter.
In October, autumn has come to an end here, and the leaves have long since fallen. If you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the heart, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!
