“......”

In the silence, a cold wind blew, and Huai Shi looked at the principal next to him in confusion.

The principal also laughed awkwardly: "I'll send you back later, isn't this afraid that you will sit on the ground and your ass will be cold?"

"Okay. ”

Huai Shi hesitated for a long time, put down the teacup in his hand, and got up with the principal.

Step up the steps.

A large and heavy alchemy door opened in front of them.

The relief of the Gorgons on top of the bronze door glanced at them, and quickly withdrew their gaze.

In the lobby of the library behind the door, a dim light shone down, illuminating the majestic old man behind the front desk.

He stared indifferently at the visitor outside the door, his expression not angry and arrogant.

It seemed to be perched high in the middle of the library, guarded by a heavy and solemn matrix, and it looked so mysterious and strange in the reflection of the light.

A high-ranking atmosphere.

"Which master is this?" Huai Shi was startled and humbly asked.

"Don't think about it, he is the janitor who was hired back to look at the library after retiring the year before last, and he is already old and confused, and he still sleeps during working hours. ”

The headmaster understated his illusion: "This is a special design, and the chair is the center of the hall, and if you put a dog on it, you will think that it is handsome and majestic as if it were a King Arthur." ”

Well, indeed sleeping.

Huai Shi plucked up the courage to look over, only to find that the old man was sleeping with his eyes open, and he couldn't see it if he didn't look carefully......

The harath is all on his beard.

And still snoring.

Bang!

A high-pitched sound.

It was the headmaster who walked up, raised his front paws, and slammed it on the table: "Hey, don't sleep, did Lao Tzu pay you to sleep?"

The sleeping old man looked up in fright, his face turned blue rapidly, and he was almost frightened into a heart attack, and he hurriedly took out the medicine bottle from his pocket, ate several pills, and gasped for a long time before he recovered.

I don't even bother to wipe my saliva.

Hung up almost on the spot.

When he put on his glasses and looked at it, his originally nervous expression relaxed: "I'm scared to death! I thought the vice principal had come to check the class...... What's the matter, Headmaster?"

The panther who was squatting at the front desk flicked his tail and licked his paws: "Bring the newcomers to walk around, read the book, you open the door." ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, and then reluctantly:

"It's so late, can't it be another day?"

"Absolutely!Lao Tzu's school, Lao Tzu's library, Lao Tzu's books, do you want to read it another day?" The black panther raised his head and glanced at the passive old man in front of him, and asked angrily, "Do you still want to fucking do it?"

Being glared at by him, the old man shrank his shoulders, and then became helpless, aggrieved: "Okay, okay, why are you so fierce." ”

As he spoke, he wiped his saliva away, slowly got up from his chair, muttered something complaining, and turned to walk to the high wall behind him.

With his actions, Huai Shi only noticed at this time.

In the lobby at the entrance of the library, behind the front desk, there is a huge wall that is more than ten meters high, engraved with solemn reliefs and countless intricate patterns...... It turned out to be a door.

True, a straight slit hangs from the very center of the steel wall, and it is difficult to detect the delicate crack between the intricate ornaments and reliefs without looking closely at it with a magnifying glass.

The entire wall is covered with two iron gates.

Huai Shi's confined hand could feel that the entire gate was all made of alloy, such a huge structure and mass, I am afraid it weighed thousands of tons!

But just in front of the iron door, as the hunchbacked old man slowly raised his thin left hand and pressed it against the door—a sharp voice burst out.

- Is this the old man you were talking about as a retired old man you were talking about?

With such a heavy door, the main gun of the tank may not be able to open open.

What kind of monsters are the janitors at your school?

Huai Shi gasped in fright.

But before he could finish taking a breath of cold air, he heard an indifferent electronic voice sound in the sharp alarm sound: "Fingerprint error!"

The old man was stunned for a moment, took his hand back, and pressed it again.

“...... Fingerprint error!"

Huai poem: "......"

Principal: "......"

In the silence, the old man looked back and smiled a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, I remember the wrong hand......"

He switched to his right hand.

This time, without any more shrill sounds, the door opened.

Just as the mass of thousands of tons does not exist at all.

Huai Shi squatted at the door and looked carefully for a long time, only to find that this thing was completely automatic with fingerprints, looked at the door, and then looked at the old man who stood in front of the door with his hands in front of him and looked like some peerless master.

The one who guards all the materials and important archives of the school, and even the fragments of the records of the kingdom of heaven, is such an old man?

Or a fingerprint lock?

Can't you change the password? What if this old man hangs up one day?

He scratched his head, feeling that the ivory tower was about to be finished......

After following the principal into the door in a daze, he couldn't help but look back at the old man, who was still standing at the door, and when he saw him looking back, he hurriedly raised his hand and waved his hand to greet him, with a flattering face.

“......”

So, are there really no hermits in your school library?

What a disappointment!

At the doorway, there are dense bookshelves with no end in sight, and countless small mechanical arms slide rapidly on the track of the ceiling, sorting out the boxes, large and small, and flexibly transporting files and other things, and placing them where they should be.

At the end of the line of sight, there are several doors separated by themselves, and through the glass windows, you can vaguely see countless huge units sinking in the coolant, venting the terrifying heat.

That's every second, I don't know how exaggerated data is being transferred, written, and read at a rapid pace.

The whole place is not like a library, but like a workshop and a machine room in a factory.

"The first layer is mainly the servers of the Ivory Tower, as well as the school files and a lot of inconsequential records, which are generally not pretty. ”

The panther walked ahead, skillfully found the elevator leading to the underground, and said with great interest: "Come with me, I'll take you to see the treasure of the Ivory Tower!"

So, is it really okay for you to be so casual?

I've only been here for a month!

But after he walked into the elevator, he heard the principal ask, "Is it the Longmen Trial in Dongxia or the Rashomon in Yingzhou?"

"Huh?"

Huai Shi was puzzled.

After the panther pressed the elevator, he suddenly turned into a muscular Australian desert red kangaroo, looked back at him, and explained: "The screening mechanism left over from the heavenly lineage...... Which one did you pass? You don't think I can't tell you're a full member of the heavenly lineage, do you?"

"Can you see this?" Huai Shi was stunned.

"Of course, the people who have passed the screening and those who have not passed are actually a little different, to say that the temperament of the whole person or essentia will have some special changes, simply put, it is an anti-counterfeiting mark.

So, which one did you pass? Headmaster, I'm curious, there aren't many people who can pass those trials these days. ”

"Uh......"

Huai Shi thought about it, but was still ready to tell the truth, after all, there was nothing bad about this matter, "Vientiane Heavenly Sphere." ”

“......”

The principal glanced at Huai Shi in surprise, but did not speak.

"What's wrong?" asked Huai Shi.

"No, just lamenting that you're not easy. Among the only twelve trials left in the current realm, the Vientiane Celestial Sphere is the most troublesome one, it is not easy to say, it is not difficult to say, but it is very torturous, and the standard of passing it varies from person to person. Besides, Golden Dawn is still stirring things up inside - it's good to say before, after all, everyone used to be colleagues in the ideal country, and many times there are things to discuss. But lately, those guys haven't even responded to messages, and they seem to have a lot of opinions about the school, do you have any clue?"

"Uh......"

Huai Shi's expression twitched, and she couldn't help but look away: "I don't know about this." ”

"Also, no matter how you look at it, you don't look like the two or five boys sent by the Golden Dawn. The kangaroo nibbled on a piece of sugar cane from nowhere, and said casually.

！

Huai Shi suddenly became nervous.

I'm afraid that the principal will suddenly jump and kill himself here.

If you look at it this way, it seems that you are ...... It seems like...... Truly...... It's a bit like a spy sent by the Golden Dawn, huh?

So what does it mean that the headmaster brought himself here?

Want to lure yourself exposed?

Or did the Ivory Tower and the Golden Dawn actually have some ineffable and unknown friendship before the Golden Dawn, often secretly communicating with each other, thinking that they were sent to connect?

"Don't worry, I won't get me wrong. ”

The headmaster patted him on the shoulder kindly: "If I hadn't known that the driver of Osiris was you, where would I have invited you to the Ivory Tower?"

I'm glad you're able to inherit Mr. Orton's legacy. Although the vice principal has a bit of a big opinion of you, that guy has always been quite awkward, and he shouldn't stumble you because of this...... Right?"

In the end, he himself hesitated, not sure.

Huai Shi has fallen into numbness.

The amount of information in this old Wang Ba's words is a bit large, and he can't digest it at all.

But in the midst of the sluggishness, the elevator has gone down to the lowest floor.

After passing through layers of dense guards that Huai Shi couldn't even detect, he went straight to the core of the ivory tower, where it slowly opened.

When Huai Shi walked out of it and passed through the last door, he caught a glimpse of the countless heavy books suspended in mid-air.

It was as if a tree of light was spreading in the void, and those straight branches crisscrossed and fro, forming a three-dimensional matrix in the huge underground square.

When the matrices intersect with each other, a thick book emerges on the nodes formed, rotating slightly.

They were all pieces of heaven.

Huai Shi felt the violent vibration of the Book of Destiny, which was a vast structure formed by thousands of fragments of the Heavenly Kingdom, which was a vague outline that had remained after the fall of the Heavenly Kingdom.

And at the very core of the countless light matrices, there is a complex projection composed of countless overlapping images, revealing a different appearance every moment, faintly outlining the outline of a book in the streamer and bubbles.

Maybe...... That's what the Book of Destiny was supposed to be.

Just being here seems to control the whole world, so that everything is shrouded in its own writing and writing.

In the spectacular scene that was almost suffocating, Huai Shi couldn't help but sigh.

"It's beautiful. ”

"Who's to say it isn't?"

The headmaster sighed softly, "Unfortunately, it's a fake. ”
