"Can't take it out? It should be possible to transcribe with paper and ink as I said before, right? ”

After listening to Betina's words, Sean frowned and asked a question he had always wanted to ask.

"Hmm...... Originally, the books here were also forbidden to be copied, but for the sake of you as a distinguished guest of our Silver Leaf Tribe, as long as the books were not damaged in the process, there would be no problem. ”

Fortunately, Bettina did not refuse this time, and after thinking for a while, she agreed to Sean's request.

"Of course, I'll be careful, these are very valuable treasures."

After receiving a satisfactory answer, a smile finally appeared on Sean's face, and he moved his gaze to the room where the books were kept, as if he wanted to rush in immediately and greedily absorb the knowledge.

……

After that, things were very simple, after the two elves exchanged polite things for a while, Bettina took Reinado in the direction of the Tree of Life, while Sean was left alone in the library, intending to start his vast replication project.

Of course, this kind of copying was not copied by hand himself, and in fact, even if he kept writing from now on, he would not be able to copy down a few books.

Rubbing, this is the right thing a mage does when faced with such a situation.

As long as there are enough copies of the carrier and the original that can be recorded by the spell, it will not take more than a few days to reproduce this library perfectly under the effect of rubbing.

To tell the truth, I've been chasing more with reading books recently, switching sources, and reading aloud with more timbre,.. Both Android and Apple are available. 】

However, Sean was not so frustrated, after all, most of the books in this library were useless or useless to him, and what he really wanted to transcribe was only a small part of the elven technology.

After using a spell to bring in a large amount of paper and ink, Sean stood between several huge bookshelves, using his mental power to lock on to the target that needed to be copied.

He slowly chanted the incantation and guided the mana to follow the spell model.

Rubbing is a very delicate spell, and you must pay attention during the casting process, otherwise the slightest mistake will lead to the wrong result.

After the protective effect on the bookshelf was removed, Sean could use the power of magic to obtain the contents of the book without having to pull it out, and use the paper and ink beside him to record it.

As the spell model was constructed, Sean's spiritual power infiltrated the books little by little.

The mouth of the inkwell beside him suddenly popped open, and a cloud of black ink flew out of it, turning into a black rainbow in front of him.

The layers of paper spread out in an instant, like a bird in the air, and the ink twisted in this short time, turning into tiny characters and imprinting into it.

In less than five minutes, Sean was able to copy a brick-thick book with the help of rubbing.

During this period, he consumed less than one volt of mana, and in addition to the need to concentrate all the time, all aspects of this spell were perfect.

Taking a deep breath, Sean pulled a bottle of energy potion out of his pocket and drank it down, intending to start his long work.

……

……

……

The white moon hung silently in the sky, and the moonlight like water slid down from the branches of the tree of life, like a waterfall that poured holiness over the earth.

The night view of the Silver Leaf Tribe is also very beautiful, with occasional lights appearing in the cascading treehouses, and small insects with fluorescent tails flying around, making everything around them feel like a fantasy.

The night watchmen were armed with weapons and keen eyes scanning around, their figures dexterous and lithe, silently skimming the treetops and steps.

In the carriage, Sean was alone looking through the rubbed books in his hands.

He was surrounded by several bright points of light, reflecting the handwriting and drawings on the book clearly.

"Good idea, very valuable for research."

Looking at the elven runes that were combined one by one, Sean couldn't help but smile on his face.

Today's trip is the right one, the knowledge of these elves has brought him a new direction of research, although it is not orthodox, but it may work wonders in some cases.

From early morning until night, Sean never left a single step, and in the cycle of rubbing-rest-rubbing, he quickly used up the mountains of paper and ink, and all of them were now the rudimentary books carried in the carriage behind him.

Because Sean gave an order not to disturb him, Celia, the little maid who was left aside, had to go to another room to find a few books that she was interested in, and read them for a whole day.

Fortunately, Betina, who is also an elf, also gave her the right to move independently in the library at that time, otherwise if it was somewhere else, Celia, who was a slave of the elves, would probably be confined to Sean as a pet and could not move around at will.

Lazily tossing aside the rubbed books in his hand, Sean reached out and took Celia into his arms, gently rubbing her hair.

Just as he was about to say something, suddenly, a burst of mental stimulation came from his mind, making his expression instantly become a little serious.

Sean stopped his movements a little bit, and at the same time grasped the staff of reincarnation placed at his side in his hand.

He looked out the window into the darkness with some vigilance, and used his mental power to communicate with the hidden mirror on the inside of the mage's robe, wanting to see who was following him.

As mentioned earlier, the main ability of the Hidden Mirror is called "Mirror", which is to display the map recorded in it, and if you inject Xenoether into it, it can also activate a large area scanning function.

This wide scan does not detect all targets, but only targets that have been recorded breath, and its permanent scanning range is not large.

In other words, unless the user infuses it with xenoether at all times, the detection of the Hidden Mirror will only cover a small area of the surrounding area on a day-to-day basis.

In this case, if the other party understands the ability of the Hidden Mirror in advance and makes some countermeasures, then it is still very likely to avoid this large-scale scanning.

Especially those people in the Southern Alliance, as the former owners of the Hidden Mirror, most of them have some kind of countermeasures to hide from Sean's detection, so even with this powerful mirror, Sean has not relaxed his vigilance at all.

However, what Sean didn't expect was that the other party knew that the Hidden Mirror had reached his hand, but he still chose to appear openly and honestly, without covering up his breath at all.

Yes, just now, the Hidden Mirror in Sean's arms suddenly transmitted a warning to him.

After enhancing his detection ability through mental power and mana, he was surprised to find that there was a Southern Alliance apprentice-level professional in the alley not far from him, and he was still moving quickly, closely following the carriage that Sean was riding.

"Eliman Olgaard."

Sean muttered.

After the Hidden Mirror fell into his hands, the aura of the Southern Alliance apprentice-level professional that was originally stored in it was not automatically erased, but was retained intact and made a wedding dress for him.

At this moment, Sean's eyes were full of solemnity, without the slightest contempt.

Because he knew that this apprentice-level professional who followed him unscrupulously was definitely not a miscellaneous fish, but the strongest professional in the Southern Alliance, "Priest of the Earth - Eliman".

Judging from the powerful momentum exuded by the other party, Sean could be sure that the other party had quietly broken through to level 18, and there were many more equipment exuding strong energy fluctuations all over his body.

What is this guy doing here?

Such a thought suddenly popped into Sean's mind.

Just as he was a little hesitant and wanted to use the alchemy items he had prepared to inform Reinado, Eliman's spiritual power suddenly connected with him, and he conveyed a soft feeling and a regular change.

This set of special changes in spiritual power Sean is certainly no stranger, as a knowledgeable mage, he immediately realized that this is the "Gularis Code", a wonderful code corresponding to the fluctuation of the strength of spiritual power.

The complexity of the "Gularis Code" is quite high, and its main carrier is mental power, and the language it is transformed into is Byronic and its simplified lingua franca.

The comparison table of this set of passwords is terrifying, and just copying it densely on a piece of paper with tiny words can cover hundreds of square meters of land.

Because of its complexity, usually only professionals will have the time and energy to learn it slowly, and only professionals can use mental power as a carrier to communicate with others with this kind of password.

However, even so, apart from a few knowledge-hungry spellcasters, there are not many apprentice and apprentice professionals who can master it completely, after all, it is too difficult to memorize and comprehend.

Either they are geniuses with a particularly good memory, or they invest a lot of time in it, otherwise normal apprentice-level professionals can only use it to convert it into a lingua franca for basic communication, and as for the deeper transformation of Byron, it is completely embarrassing for them.

Of course, Sean is not one of them, his demonic memory made him completely memorize the full set of "Gularis Code" when he was still an ordinary person, so after a little translation, Sean understood what the other party wanted to convey.

"I'm here for negotiations, I don't want to be your enemy, please believe in my sincerity."

A string of lingua franca words was translated, and after understanding what the other meant, Sean smiled a little contemptuously, as if to scoff at it.

Just kidding, now that Reinado's side has the advantage, the group of people in the Southern Alliance is like a group of lost dogs, they have long been driven to the border cities of the Connelly Kingdom, and the threat to him is not as good as before.

What's more, Reinado also gave him a lot of help and reward, and in this favorable situation, he had no reason to abandon the light and the dark.

If the other party really wants to discuss cooperation, then he should go to see Reinado, and now he must have other plans, and there is a high probability that there are not many good intentions.

Just as Sean was about to issue a warning to keep the other party away, the news from Eliman that came next made his expression gradually freeze.

It was the name of a series of potions, alchemical devices, ritual magic pedestals, and with them small numbers indicating the number of them.

When Eliman first reported these things, Sean was still a little confused, and even thought that the other party wanted to use them to bribe him.

But as the other party talked more and more, a storm gradually rolled up in his heart.

This is what he was going to give him, this is clearly the material he stored in the basement of Reinado Manor!

"Damn ......"

Sean cursed, and pulled out a small alchemy device from his mage's robes, wanting to see if the methods he had laid out in the basement were normal.

However, the moment the spiritual power was connected to it, Sean's heart was half cold.

Although I don't know why there is no hint, it is clear that the means he arranged before have been dismantled without realizing it.

"What is your purpose?"

After thinking for a while, Sean also used his mental power to send out a series of Gularis codes.

"We'll meet and talk about it later, the conditions on my side are very rich, please don't tell anyone else."

Seeing that he finally spoke, the other party seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and replied quickly.

Sean was silent, but finally replied with a "yes", and then he shielded the entire carriage with his mental power, preventing the guy from prying eyes on him.

When he stored those things, no one but Reinado saw them, and now the Southern Alliance guys even know what is inside, so it's actually very simple.

There are two possibilities, one is that there are ghosts among those apprentice-level professionals who stayed in Reinado's manor, and the other is that Reinado's manor may have been lost.

Of course, it may be that the former led to the emergence of the latter, but in either case, it is not good news for Sean now.

Although he received a lot of care from Reinado, he was still reluctant to die if he really encountered such a crisis that could threaten his life.

It's just that Sean has signed the Abyss Will Contract with Reinado before, and under the power of the contract, even if he is reluctant, he must fully support Reinado when he encounters danger, and it is impossible to escape.

Although this contract is not without loopholes, the thought of the inevitable battles that will follow gives Sean a headache, so after hearing that Eliman has the intention to negotiate, he still does not refuse.

After all, judging from the other party's words, there seems to be a certain turn for the better in this matter? Otherwise, those guys wouldn't have contacted him for no reason and revealed such important information to him.
