137. Holy relics
"Book Sizz?"
Jasmine glanced at the quaint book floating in mid-air, and at this moment she seemed to feel that the humanless book was slightly raised in mid-air, as if to prove her nobility and extraordinary.
Jasmine wonders if the book named "Emhart" is as it says, that a wizard once used dark sorcery to seal the soul of a real earl into the book, and then he needed a giant frog to kiss the book in order to set Jazz free again...
Well, this is probably a story about the prince of books and the frog princess.
But Fisher glanced at the book in front of him, the skin of the book seemed to have been worn by the years but not wrinkled at all, there was not a trace of dust, the human eye blinked and blinked, but unfortunately there were no eyelashes, in this dark library like a scene in a horror movie.
"You're a relic?"
Yes, Fisher judged that the book in front of him was not actually a creature in essence, but a relic of a very advanced craft.
"Ah, the relic... Yes, you juniors like to call these miraculous, unknowingly made creations, like gifts handed down from time immemorial. Yes, the honorable book Sir Emhart is a relic, if you like to call me so. ”
He swayed in mid-air, and the pages stretched out like an accordion.
"Still, I prefer the original title given to us by the honorable producer, Enolomba... Well, this is the language of the Holy Descendants, which translates into Nari as 'Divine Creation', and it is more appropriate to use Sacred Relics. ”
"Relic?"
"Yes, a mythical artifact that has been lost for a long time, but I don't know how I was made... After all, you know, who knows exactly how they were created? Especially when you're still a book..."
Jasmine opened her mouth, not opening her mouth to point out the fact that the book called itself a "human".
And Fisher, who was beside him, had almost confirmed through the conversation that the strange book in front of him had no ill will towards his group, and after that, he turned his tone and asked about Emhardt's intentions,
"If you are a very cherished relic, how did you end up here? A royal library of humanity, and not somewhere well-preserved? ”
"Well, I don't have any special hobbies, but I really like to record the contents of all the books in the world. Oh, and speaking of which, I've been wondering if the reason I love books so much is because I like them, or is it because the great saints created me with a setting? ”
"Since I woke up, I've been wandering around the world, reading all kinds of books. I came to this library decades ago, and I've read all the books here, oh, I was just going to sleep here for a few months before leaving for the next place where the books are hidden, but I didn't expect to meet me tonight..."
Sir Shu kept floating in mid-air, and slowly flew to Fisher's side, circling around him non-stop,
"I feel it, you have two very esoteric books on you! Right? Right! Oh my God, it's been a long time since I've smelled a book like this, and there must be a lot of big secrets in it? About the Chaos Species? Demonic species? Still is... About the word that can't be said? ”
The book drew closer to him, and the male voice of the male duck grew quieter and quieter, until he was about to approach his ear when Fisher took him in his hand and made him blink at his eyes with open covers.
"Words that can't be spoken?"
"Oh, not really? Then I'm even more curious! Please, I just want to read the contents of those two books and write them down. It's been a long time since I've smelled such a tantalizing smell of knowledge, and even the books from the Royal Godlin's collection taste like wax to me. Please, good human, let me read it. ”
His duckling's voice sounded ugly and pitiful, but Fisher vaguely felt that the seductive book in this book was the finishing manual in his arms.
The two manuals on his chest were slightly hot, and this was the first time that anyone other than himself had noticed the existence of the completed manual, because under normal circumstances, no one else could see even if they took out the two completed manuals.
Could it be that the physique of people and relics is not the same?
Or is it because Emhart is a book in its own right?
"Fisher doesn't have any books on you, could it be that you have a blocked nose, or that you have slept too long and slept stupidly?"
Jasmine and Fisher had swam together, and from her point of view, Fisher was soaked all over and couldn't see the shape of the book, and even if he had brought it, the two books were completely soaked, and Fisher would have taken them out to dry.
"No, no! How dare you, little whale species, question my thirst for books, the wonderful taste, like a meal sealed under the magic of insulation in an apartment two streets away, the taste is small and small... But, it's wonderful..."
The duck-like voice gave Jasmine goosebumps, especially after the word "wonderful" came out, which made people feel uncomfortable.
Fisher glanced at the book in his hand, and after thinking for a second, he suddenly spoke,
"I do have two amazing books, and I can show you the contents of those two books, but it doesn't come without a price."
"Oh, deal, yes... You Nari people like to trade the most, and you are good at exchanging a small number of bullets for a large amount of gold for the subhumans of the Southern Continent. Well, make your request and let Lord Book think about it. ”
The book floated again, and Fisher said.
"Let's do a knowledge exchange, and exchange what you've recorded for the contents of my two books."
"What?! Interchange? It's really unbelievable. Do you know how much content I have recorded in my body and how many precious books I have? It's just one page of information that needs your barren brain to run at full speed for a whole year, and even if I want to change it, how do you record it? ”
Fisher smiled slightly, waved his finger and said,
"Of course I can't record it, so let's change the trading method... One book for one year, two books for two years, you have to follow me at any time during the two years, answer every question I ask you, when the two-year period comes, no matter how many questions you answer me, I will show you the contents of the two books, so that you can record them. ”
"Oh!
! ”
As soon as Emhardt heard Fisher's "charity clause", he suddenly flew up with excitement and spun around like a little butterfly in mid-air.
"Time, for human beings, it is such a precious thing, two years can be called a long time. Okay, I can promise you, but before that comes the details of the deal between us, I want you to make a blood oath. ”
It seems that this book is very knowledgeable about many things in this world, including how to limit human beings from keeping their promises,
"Yes, but the blood oath can only limit me, not you, a thinking relic."
"Oh, not necessarily, after all, I haven't tried to extract my life force from the Blood Oath... But you don't have to worry, because I'm going to pay you for answering your questions first, aren't I? ”
Fisher chuckled and nodded, motioning for him to add terms,
"Well, you can ask me any question at any time and in any situation within two years, and everything I know must be answered truthfully to you, but I don't guarantee that every question will be answered, as long as I really don't know, and sometimes I will give you a little advice based on the answer to this question..."
"Secondly, you have to keep me safe, let me remind you first, although ordinary blisters, fires and swords can't hurt me, but if you dare to use me as a shield, pillow or other items, don't blame me for turning my face!"
"One last thing, during the period of following you, if you read any books that I haven't seen, write them down for me, and in return, I'll extend the trading time between us, or tell you a little more about something you didn't ask me, how about it? Say yes or no? ”
"Sounds like it makes up for the lack of legs."
"Ha, actually, I can run a long distance, it's just a problem for me. Of course, you can stay in St. Nari's hut all the time, I'm just saying if you can read a book I haven't read. And I don't have to read all the books, they have to be interesting books, don't show me the peachy love on the street, show it to the little whale girl next to me. ”
Jasmine's little face flushed, because she suddenly remembered the third-rate love that Milica had shown herself before, and there were lifelike line drawings in it, telling the story of the male professor that the female students had taught them in private at night.
Yikes... It's too shameful...
Ignoring Jasmine, whose ears began to fan again, Fisher readily agreed to the contents of the deal, and then he reached out to Lord Book, bit his finger and carved a [Oath] ring magic on the ground, that is, the blood oath.
In fact, the structure of the Blood Oath is the simplest, but at the same time it is the oldest, and it involves knowledge of the history of human magic, which will be added later.
However, from the first few spells used by humans, the blood oath magic, you know that in ancient times, there was basically no trust between people, and in order to ensure that others could keep their promises, people could only use this simple and crude method.
In addition to the magic of attacking, the magic of the blood oath has been passed down to this day, and there are many allusions related to the blood oath.
Fisher's hand moved, and it didn't take long for a ring of blood oath magic to be carved, and as it took shape, a fishy mist squirmed and steamed upward, like illusory chains that quickly poured into Fisher's body, flowing with his veins.
In fact, the faint mist also flowed into Emhart's body, but Fisher didn't know if he could imprison the relic in this way, but as he said, he paid first and answered Fisher's questions first.
"It's a deal, young man, I hope the two of us get along happily during this time, I think my temper is still quite good, and I can be called the one with the best temper among the conscious relics. Okay, well, from now on, Lord Elmhart will know everything about you, if you have any questions, ask me quickly, hurry up..."
Fisher raised his eyebrows first, remembering the difference between this book sir and other relics, so he opened his mouth to ask the first inconsequential question, which was a foreshadowing,
"I've only seen you a conscious relic for so many years, you're the one special? Or is it that conscious relics are actually more advanced than unconscious ones? ”
Sir Book straightened his chest, although it made his entire book body tilt a lot, and it looked a little funny,
"That's nature, otherwise why is my name so honorable? In fact, all the holy relics are tools made by the Saints, and the Saints have unparalleled forging skills and aesthetics, even the utensils they use in their lives are unbelievably beautiful, let alone their deities. ”
"The more time it takes, the more precious the materials used, and the more advanced the forging skills, the more likely it is that I will be able to create a conscious artifact like mine. But over the years, I've only come across a relic similar to mine, and I guess there are many others sleeping in unknown corners."
Emhart was indeed answering Fisher's questions honestly, at least from Fisher's point of view, he wasn't lying, and he was spreading a lot of things that weren't common sense.
Now that we can almost determine the authenticity of this guy's words, Fisher is going to get to the point, this guy has been here for so many decades, and he must know how to get into Blake's treasury, which is the real solution to the urgent problem.
"There's an entrance to Blake's treasury, right?"
"That's right! Captain Blake Vasili... Oh, legendary figures, but now bewitched by eternal life. Decades ago, he had set up a portal to his treasury here, a magically forged entrance ring that led to the deep, deep underground beneath Lake Nari, where he had dug the vault in the depths before placing the entrance. ”
Sir Book floated to the front of the second-floor fence, where he saw Anna and Sheat, who had been sitting there listening to Fisher's conversation.
"Magic? I don't feel a trace of magic here.."
"This is because it is not yet time, you can only open this entrance after sunrise, the specific way is to operate the glass in the sky, there are eight pieces in total, you need to open four of them, and the traces of waking up the entrance will appear."
