Chapter 1 _ Dragon's Magic Book Library

"Prayer and curse spells are the oldest of all magic, and to this day, these types of spells still retain their original forms: easy rituals, alternative spells, a lot of improvisational spells, and a high probability of ineffectiveness that no one can avoid by making research mages want to hit walls. 」

As soon as Rick read this, the book in his hand grinded his teeth, and he quickly withdrew the hand that was on the page. I saw this thick book with a brown cover and a hard shell, with the goal of clipping off people's fingers, suddenly closed, turned over on the table like a beast, and crawled to the side with the book cover, the spine of the book rising and low with its movements.

Xi Ke thought that this was the end of it, but the book suddenly turned back, pouted the page, and made a small note at Xi Ke. Rick grabbed the note, which read, "To see a doctor, you need to see a license, and to see a doctor. is part of one of the pages of the book. He hurried after the book that had jumped off the table, trying to slip the note into the book and return it to its place.

Behind the Seal, there is a large sea of books, stuck on the many bookshelves made of hewn stone walls. The books rustled, snapped, and staggered to and fro, and as soon as Rick looked back, they all fell silent, completely still. One book was seen by Xi Ke on the way off the bookshelf, so he had to stay in mid-air, the book cover open like a glider and stopped there.

Rick walked over, pulled the book out of the air, closed it and stuffed it back into the shelf.

This place is the largest magic library in the whole of Ethero, and the question of how Syk ended up in this place starts with a breakfast a month ago.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

A month ago, the mage's apprentice Cyke and his master, Ampaert, had breakfast together in the dragon's lair where they lived. His master, Ampaert, was a dragon - with a dog-like head, a goose-like neck, wolf limbs, large wings, a long tail, and a long silver-white coat. A fluffy, flimpy, warm, and powerful Altaro protosaurus.

Ampaert is a mage and a "man-shifter", but when there are no guests in the house, he usually keeps the dragon prototype and lures Rick to bury his face in his fur.

Cyk is a human with pale skin and black hair, fingers like chicken feet, and very unpleasant eyes. He wore a loose goose-yellow shirt with an untied hem and two buttons, and a pair of stretchy black cotton-blend trousers on the lower half of his body, which doubled as pajamas.

He was also a mage, and had a mage license before he became an apprentice. However, since he met Ampert in the workplace more than two years ago, and then worshipped him as a teacher and lived in his house, Xike rarely wore mage robes.

If there was a third person on the scene at this time, they would definitely not find out that both of them had mage qualifications.

In the living room, surrounded by hard earth walls, the two eat around a table with a log flattened. Ampaert buried her face in a large basin, bit a ball of cabbage with her front teeth, threw it up, opened her mouth to catch it, and chewed it. While eating, he looked at a stack of "Dragon New Knowledge News" on the table.

With a bowl of strawberries in his hand and half a crispy roast chicken in the other, he was using his hands to get the meat off of it. In front of him was a copy of The Magical Heritage of Antiquity. Because both hands were roasted chicken fat, he had to turn the pages with a knife and fork, completely reversing the purpose of the cutlery and his hands.

Ampaert leaned her face against the table and blew the pages of the paper with her snort. He noticed a red flyer inside, and looked at it with a frown.

It took him thirty seconds to figure out what was going on, then he cleared his throat and said in a deep voice, "I think I've got to get out of the house. 」

"Huh?" Rick looked up.

"This matter is serious, the dragon leader has ordered all the dragons who can pull away to gather, and we need a huge liliang to stop this disaster. Ampaert said.

The dragon head is the leader of the dragon clan, one of the greatest dragons, and what he said will naturally not be wrong, the matter is really serious.

"What's going on?" asked Rick.

"There's a publishing house that plans to publish the Shijie Dragon Chronicle, a collection of stories about Warcraft that have been mistranslated as dragons in all countries. If this comes true, people will think that those monsters are really dragons like us, our relatives in a distant land!"

"Too bad. Rick heartily agreed.

Outside of Ethero, there are many powerful magical beasts in those regions where different languages are spoken. Those monsters were revered or feared in this place to the same extent as the dragons of the Ethero region. Therefore, when the racial names of those monsters are translated into the Etello, they are often translated as "dragon" in the Eiterotic language. But those magical beasts are not necessarily auspicious creatures like the Altarorosaurus, and in fact they are not related to the Altarorosaurus.

Therefore, the Ataro Dragons hated that their names were used by those different kinds of Warcraft, and launched the "Dragon Name Correction Campaign", demanding that the names of exotic Warcraft not be translated into dragons.

Now that a publishing house is planning to turn this matter into a final conclusion in black and white, the dragon clan is of course furious!

"It's going to take months, what are you going to do?" Ampett swayed his neck from side to side, thinking about what the apprentice was going to do while he wasn't there.

"I can watch the house. Rick said.

Anpaitt takes care of Jack as if he were his own little dragon, and Nick is very grateful for this, but a twenty-three-year-old dragon still needs to be watched by Jackie Chan at any time, but a twenty-three-year-old human can be independent.

"But you've read all the books in my library, and you've read about the books in the nearby library. You're going to be bored, and I'm not sure when I'm back. Ampaert tilted his head, and his drooping ears swayed.

If Ampaert is at home, he can carry Nick around looking for books, but if he is not at home, Nick's range of books will be much smaller.

Ampaert tilted his head again, and he thought, "Ha, I have an older brother who runs a library. He should also be out for this call, and you can go and help him see the museum. 」

When he heard that there were books, Rick's eyes lit up, "Are there many books there?"

"Nearly half a million copies. Ampaert blinked, her curtain-like eyelashes moving up and down, "It's all a magic book!"

500,000 volumes is just a common number in medium and large libraries, but if all of them are magic books, the rarity is completely different.

The so-called "magic book" does not refer to magic books, most of the contents of magic books have nothing to do with magic. A magic book is a book that has magic on it, such as an "exploding book" (which explodes when opened) and a "crawling book" (a book that crawls around if not opened), and so on, where magic has a long-term effect.

Usually there is no permanent magic on the spell book, because the mage will often put the book on the casting site for reference at any time, in case the spell cast on the book interacts with the spell in progress, the consequences are unimaginable.

There is no magic book being produced on the market, because that would make the book much more expensive and not in commercial interest. As for things like "audio books" and "stereoscopic video books", it's a question of whether they are even books or not, not magic books!

As a result, the birth of the Magic Book is usually an accident.

"A layman with no training in magic accidentally meets the conditions for casting a spell, the book is left on the magic fountain for too long, and the author of the novel who has been cut in half has a strong grudge against his work, which pulls on the magical structure of the text itself......" Antpay recounted the various reasons for the creation of the magic book: "There is also a case, which is the book of the innate mage. 」

Xi Ke is also an innate mage, and when he heard this, his eyebrows were slightly lowered and his eyes widened.

"Innate mages are not necessarily properly trained, and many innate mages don't care that their books have a high level of magical energy. If they have notes, they will usually cast a spell on them to protect them. Therefore, the content of some magic books is the spell casting experience recorded by the innate mage himself. Ampaert curled the corners of the dragon's mouth and said, "I think it will be good for you to read those books, and it will help you understand your liliang. 」

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

So, a month later, both Anpaitt and his brother were out of the house, and Rick was on duty at the Magic Library.

There were no other librarians in the Magic Book Library, only Xi Ke alone. Anyway, most magic books will take care of themselves and don't need to be taken care of by others. As long as he is in charge of the humans who read the book, he can do so.

The Magic Book House is located in a mountainous area with scarce rainfall, in the bare gray rock mountain, in the naturally generated tunnel, the sun cannot get in, the temperature and humidity are constant, and it is the best place for paper preservation.

He usually wakes up at six or seven o'clock in the morning, at dawn, rubs in the quilt for half an hour to forty minutes, then gets up to make breakfast, reads some books, tidies up, and goes to the front door at half past ten to sit behind the counter and open.

Don't even look at the sun at the gate, where you can't go outside except for a small back door somewhere.

The gate refers to the teleportation station. In this large room three hundred meters wide, there are five ring magic circles on the ground, which are connected to several mass transportation systems, the research rooms of specific archmages, and the vegetable market. When the blue light comes on, someone is coming in.

Sitting alone behind the counter surrounded on three sides, he typed in the activation code, and the text on the ring began to turn, and when the patterns of the outer and inner circles fit into each other, the teleportation station was ready to use.

The Ring Magic Array immediately emitted a blue light, and a group of people appeared in the light, and six men and women appeared in the magic array by teleporting magic.

As soon as the museum opens, it's usually the mages who arrive. They have a lot in common, such as wearing dark mage robes that hide dirt, dark circles under their eyes, and holding half-nibbled light food, such as a sandwich or half a fruit, in their hands. They were young mages who stayed up all night doing research or writing reports. Shaking left and right, occasionally supporting each other to walk to the counter to return books and take the books they have ordered.

Xi Ke put a stack of books in the iron cage behind him, and by the way, he advised them to pay attention to their bodies, and then watched them walk back to the blue circle and go back to their homes to catch up on sleep. Sometimes someone would fall halfway, and Rick would drag him to the side and help him cover him with a blanket.

Then scattered and scattered, some mothers-in-law and mothers came with children. Their goal is the "Interactive Magic Boy Library", which is full of rampaging magic books that will do everything they can to bite and bump into the reader's case. Perfect for playing with children of demonic age and draining their energy.

Every time he passed by the room, he could hear the children's screams in an octave—the pleasant one, indicating that they were wrestling with the book. When the child and the book are tired, the mother can pick up the book and borrow it and read it to the child as a bedside story.

In addition to throwing their children to read books, the most important thing about these mothers-in-law is that they also like to do an activity that mothers-in-law love by the way-flirting with young men.

On the first day he came here, Xi Ke didn't understand that Weishenme Anpait's brother Yilong was obviously not very old, but when he turned into a human being, he chose the appearance of an old man, and after seeing these mothers-in-law and mothers, he understood.

It is too dangerous to maintain the appearance of a young man in front of these people!

At about the same time each day, there was a wall of people in front of the counter. These women, who all have husbands and children, and are excluded from the love market, do not think that they should avoid men other than their husbands because of this, but because they have an indestructible and stable marriage, they do not have to worry about being troubled by love activities, and they eat tofu everywhere more unscrupulously.

"Oh, little brother, look at this, hey, why do you have red spots on your face?" said one of the mothers-in-law.

"Don't poke me in the face!" Rick wailed.

"Oh, this spot should be dealt with sooner, my family uses it—" said another mother-in-law.

"Can you let me go?"

"Yo-yo, where is your mother? Does my brother have a girlfriend?" said another mother-in-law.

"No—" Nick suddenly thought of the tragic consequences of answering truthfully, and quickly changed his words, "Yes!

"I'll bring it next time. 」

Mothers-in-law and mothers rushed up.

"Oh, look at his expression, it's unrequited love!" "Oh, which young lady is so charming?", "Yo Yo brother, do you want to give up?" My daughter is good, she is in college, how about marrying her after graduating from college?" "Alas, boys don't have any qualitative qualities these days, why don't you want to find a few more girls-" "Oh, or next time I will have a joint blind date-"
