Chapter 5: Black Gas Monsters
"If you don't give me the book, you'll definitely regret it!" Hearing this, the Fake Mage's eyes widened to a terrifying degree.
If she was willing to gently explain how much she wanted to read the book, for example, maybe one of her siblings happened to have been adopted by the dragon, and she was going to visit the dragon house tomorrow, and she was very desperate to get the book immediately, whether it was true or not, Xike would most likely find the book and borrow it from her. But she was unceremonious, her words were coercive, and this was the last thing Xike would eat of all the tricks.
"I'm sorry, it's past closing time. γ
Xi Ke said again with a blank expression, and at the same time he noticed one thing, this woman did not say, "Lend me the book", but "Give me the book". It doesn't sound like a simple slip of the tongue.
The woman smiled at Rick's clothes. She was really talking to Rick's clothes, and Tick didn't feel like she was in eye contact with her.
"As a magician library, it's your duty to serve people, don't you think you should do your best to help someone who wants a book get it?" the woman laughed.
"I don't think so. Rick quickly replied, "Tomorrow morning, please." γ
He was so fierce just now, and now he hurriedly changed his attitude when he found out that the situation was wrong, when Xi Ke's memory was so bad, he couldn't remember Liang Zi, who was married a few seconds ago?
When the woman heard this, she suddenly screamed, "You will be punished!"
Xi Ke blinked and said, "The hall owner is very busy, and he doesn't have time to punish me. Moreover, he was not hired, he was a librarian who had "personal friends", and he had immunity from family affection when he made mistakes. He couldn't have been punished.
The woman said in a sharper voice, "The owner of the hall is nothing at all, the true god is the supreme lord of shijie!
Xi Ke was stunned, it turned out to be a religious fanatic.
"There's a demon in there, really?" Namo asked, raising her eyebrows, "Isn't that a book about dragons?"
Listening to Nemo's tone, Syk knew that Nemo meant that there was no mention of demons in it.
"Dragons are demons!"
The woman screamed again. Seren was very rude, and put his ears up in front of the woman, to which Rick was very surprised. Knights are usually respectful of women.
"That's what the foreign mage said, right?" said Rick with a frown.
"The Customs and Habits of the Dragons and the Ritual Elements of Human Interaction with Dragons" is an ancient local book about the Aethero native dragon of Ampaert, who is undoubtedly a good pro-human dragon.
"This is what God says. γ
The woman stopped screaming, the muscles of her whole face collapsed all at once, her eyes widened, and it felt as if her whole face was gone, only two eyeballs remained, and she kept approaching Xike, so frightened that Xike hid behind Seren's back.
"Give me the book to save you dragons from sin!" the woman continued.
Xi Ke and the others looked at each other, apart from being on duty in the dragon's magic library, where did they look like dragons?
"We don't have long tails, and this big man is a knight!" said Nemo with his hands on his chest.
Unexpectedly, when the woman heard this, her eyes could even widen for the third time, she opened her mouth, staggered back, and her face was distorted with horror: "How could it beβthe dragon has even infiltrated the Knights, and the country is finished!"
Holding her head, she began to scream in bursts of screams like scraping glass, forcing all three of them to put their hands on their ears.
As the others were devastated by the noise, the light in the hall gradually dimmed, as if a black mist had drifted in.
The first person to notice this was Seren, who turned his head to look at the source of the black fog. The corridor leading to the library area was not lit in the first place, only the afterglow of the hall, and now there seemed to be a cloud of black gas plugged there, swallowing all the light. In the darkness, he opened two blood-red eyes, red like a demon when his bloodthirsty impulse erupted.
Serian subconsciously touched his hand to the needle-shaped holy sword pinned to the cuff. Namo saw that his back hand also hung down, leaning towards the sacrificial knife at his waist.
There was a figure like a girl in the black fog, and the person dragged a black cloud out of the passage, shook her head in the light, and shook off a shadow, so that the two of them could see what she looked like with a rational eye.
It's definitely a human being, yes. She wore a pure black native-style mage robe, so simple that she could wear it directly to the funeral. She has long, straight black hair that falls down to her hips. The hair is completely untrimmed, unlayered, of varying lengths, just a bamboo hairpin is clamped behind the back, and then it is left alone. Look at the shiny color, eighty percent have never been dyed and burned. She was very thin, but she had a goose egg face, no fat powder, and she didn't even hide her dark circles.
She hunched her back badly, leaned forward, her head almost as high as her collarbone, pursed her lips slightly, and looked at the people in the hall with a pair of blood-red eyes.
"Yez!" Rick waved at the black-robed native female mage who appeared later.
After seeing Yez's true face, Seren and Naimo lifted their guard and turned back to deal with the fake foreign mage.
"In just five seconds, I finally understood that the ancient knights of Weishenme were always fighting with mages. The knight said as he let go of his sleeve.
"I already knew Weishenme when I first saw you. Master Namo said casually.
A woman in a black robe, named Yez, approached Xike and the others, and she swayed from side to side, and she didn't straighten her back anyway. She walked over to Rick, who pulled out a bottle of eye drops from the drawer, but she gestured to stop Tick, straightened her back slightly so she could breathe, and looked at the fake foreign mage.
"Ai Zhulian, what are you doing here? I didn't know you could read?" said Yatz, the irony in his tone that made the three men shrink their necks.
When the fake foreign mage named Ai Zhu Lian heard this, he clenched his teeth, but then he reluctantly put on a calm smile, the muscles on his face twitched, and he squinted and said, "I am running for the ideal future of the kingdom of God, unlike you, a cult believer!"
Then she shut up. Listening to the grammar, Xi Ke thought that he should talk about "how to be like you, a cult believer", but he couldn't wait for the following.
"You still believe in that weird religion, why are you making trouble this time?" Ye Zi sighed deeply, and Ai Zhulian accused each other of believing in a cult.
"There's no need to tell you!" Ai Zhulian said visibly flustered, pinching the corner of her clothes.
Slowly, in a semi-coquettish tone, Yez said, "Listen, listen. The irony was so strong that all three men took a step back.
Ai Zhulian was silent for three seconds, and then screamed again, this time at Xi Ke, "You remember, if you refuse to hand over the evil book and close this evil field, the gods will watch you be burned by fire in the sky!" Then she shook her head, letting her hair draw a beautiful arc in the air, and strode towards the teleportation array, teleporting away.
Yez sighed, picked up the eye drops that Syk had placed on the table, and ordered them for herself.
All three men breathed a sigh of relief. Tick introduced the two friends to Yez, who had his eyes closed, "Yez, this is Seren, he'sβuh-" Rick thought for a moment before saying, "The one who uses the Holy Sword to trouble the common people and oppress the good people. γ
"Oh, hello Knight. Yez nodded rightly at Seren.
Seren, "You still hold a grudge against the past?"
"Considering that you've obstructed me so many times on official duty, it's hard for me not to hold a grudge. After introducing Seren, Xi Ke then introduced Naimo: "This is Naimo, a robber of a house and robbing a people's daughter and mutilating Zhongliang...... Xi Ke first finished talking about a series of vicious acts, which made people's impression of Namo extremely bad, and Zuihou said in a very relaxed tone: "If you don't do the above, you will do everything else as a black market mage. γ
"What are you trying to do with this order?" said Naimo with the corners of his mouth lowered.
"Create a misunderstanding. Rick said confidently.
"Is your uncle's skin itchy?" asked Namo.
"Hello. Luckily, Yez didn't seem to be affected and nodded at Namo.
"This is Yez, she's an 'indoor stargazer'. Rick said.
Namo nodded knowingly.
Serian asked, "What's that?"
"A member of the Roof Liftoff Association. Naimo said.
"Civil society?" Serenne asked again. He had never heard of such an organization.
"It's a joke for mages, and the knight may not understand it. Yez opened his eyes, and there was a lot less blood in them. She smiled, "These two words refer to mages who often do experiments to blow up their roofs so that they can sit indoors and watch the stars at night. γ
Watching Yez's sparkling expression when he explained, he was full of pride, and he couldn't help but feel that the person in front of him must not be just a member, she should be the president of the Roof Lift Association.
Syk read the information from Seren's almost admiring expression. For knights, the mage's naked display of the desire to break through the limits of magic is as great as chivalry.
Xi Ke continued, "Ye Zi is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Staff of Light. γ
Naimo raised an eyebrow and asked knowingly, "Are you sure that the Academia Sinica is a staff of light?
"About the roof of the Academia Sinica!"
When Ye Zi heard this, he still showed a lovely smile, and his eyes instantly lit up to the point of frightening, and the hook on his mouth also revealed a dangerous aura, revealing the true face of the member of the Roof Lift Association:
"Because it has been blown up so many times, the architect said that no matter how much the explosion force is set to guide the project, it is useless, and the academician's ability to blow up the roof is beyond the level of the existing building, and we plan to build a 'movable roof'! The joints with the wall are not fixed, only slightly stuck, so that when it is blown up, the roof can fly up and fall back to its original position, and there is no need to rebuild it all the time! We are studying how to use magic to guide the roof to return to its own position, and then we may transport the roof ten kilometers away to 'fly' to see if it can be safely installed back on the Academia Sinica. To do that, we need to ......."
The terrifying magical research plan attacks are overwhelming, blowing up Seren, who doesn't understand magic, and Naimo, who doesn't pay much attention to theory, and is unable to deal with it.
Xi Ke had seen it several times, and knew what to do, he opened the drawer, took out a fifteen centimeter-thick, super difficult magic book and stuffed it into Yez's hand, Yez immediately shut up and ran to the reading table next to him to check the contents.
"Just feed her a book at this time. Rick nodded to Nemo and Seren.
"What a young academician. Naimo craned her neck to observe Yez.
"Don't look at her with a baby face, it's already the age when the elders have repeatedly asked when to bring their son-in-law home. Rick shrugged and pulled out a stack of menus from a drawer, "Let's call for delivery for dinner." He turned to Yez and shouted, "Yez, what do you want to eat?"
"Whatever!" Yetz said, burying her face deeper into the page.
