Volume 1 The Scourge of Witchcraft and the Enemy of a Thousand Years Ago Chapter 132 A Rainy Day After a Long Visit

After Allen finished speaking, he quietly glanced around the classroom, and found that Cynthia didn't seem to be there, and she probably returned the key to the revolving book house to Professor Stubone before going back to the room.

The class taught the Advanced Levitation Charm, which controlled more objects at once than the Elementary Levitation Charm they had learned.

Of course, it is also difficult to master, and counting Alyssa, only a few people can use it smoothly until the end of class. Most people, including Alan and Riel, can only use it on a single object.

"Haven't we all already learned the levitation charm, why do you have to learn this, it's just asking for trouble!" Professor Stubone grumbled as soon as he announced the end of class. He didn't get any results from the whole class practice.

"Of course it makes sense!" Alyssa gave him a blank look, "I bet the professor will be distracted when he explains theory and practical application." ”

"Uh......" Riel scratched his head, his eyes looking unnaturally to the side. Obviously, it was Alyssa who said it.

"If you need to move, would you choose to move everything all at once, or would you choose to move a little bit at a time and then switch back and forth between the two houses?" asked Alyssa.

"Uh......" Riel was a little speechless, and he hesitated for a long time before whispering, "I ...... Can I choose not to move?"

"Tsk. Alyssa glanced at him with extreme disgust when she heard such an unseemly answer, ignored him, and then asked Allen, "You said in class that you made any new discoveries about the Winslow family?"

"Hmm...... So to speak. Alan looked around and saw that there were still many people in the classroom, and the exit was crowded, so he led them in the opposite direction to the place where the back door of the general hall connected to the twin spires.

Although it was still raining, there was an eaves blocking it, so it was not a big problem.

Alan glanced around, and saw that it was very secluded, and there was no major class in the morning, so he didn't have to worry about anyone coming out of the twin spires, so he said reassuringly: "This is a rather sensitive topic, you should keep your mouth shut." ”

"Hmm. Alyssa and Riel nodded at the same time.

"It's about the revolving book house. Allen said.

"What the hell is that place?" asked Riel, "I guess the name is for books, like a library." ”

"Hmm...... I thought so at first, but when I saw the contents, I didn't think so. Alan frowned slightly, and then asked, "If it's just a collection of books, do you think there needs to be two libraries in a school?"

"Uh...... It seems like...... No...... "Riel finally felt a little wrong.

"There are not only the original manuscripts of the book, but also the original manuscripts of all the work reports, records, plans, and so on of all regions, departments, and all types from ancient times to the present. "And what I want to tell you is that it was built by the Stone family. ”

Krair still didn't realize what that meant, and just looked at Eren with a confused expression.

"In other words, the purpose of building it in the first place was not just to collect original book manuscripts, but to obtain this information?" Alyssa guessed.

"That's right, this isn't a bookstore, it's just a huge intelligence gathering system!" Alan nodded, "When they fled here, Krivari was just a small village, and the area was probably just a wilderness. With the Monoculus destroying most of the cities, the continent's information systems are largely paralyzed, and if the Stone family is to find an opportunity to make a comeback, such an agency that allows them to obtain information is a must. ”

"Comeback?" "Riel was taken aback, "Why are you speculating like that?"

"Because they have everything they need to make a comeback. Alan looked at him, "The core members of their family are still alive, the magic they have learned is still proficient, and most importantly, the wealth that their family has amassed over the years is still firmly in their hands...... As a wealthy family that once ruled one side, they not only desire, but also fully capable of making a comeback. ”

"I agree with Alan. Alyssa said.

But they never waited for their chance. Alan said again.

"Why?" asked Riel.

"Quite simply, it wasn't the escapees who saved the survivors from the Eye, but the four Guardians...... Moreover, the descendants of those four have always adhered to the family motto and conscientiously fulfilled their duties as guardians. The people of the world live a peaceful and peaceful life under their leadership, and they have no opportunity or reason to come out and make trouble. ”

"Oh......" Rare nodded in understanding.

"Maybe it was because of the time that made them feel that it was not bad to live a secluded life here, and they didn't have to worry about food and clothing anyway, so they gradually gave up their original plan. ”

"When you say that, it seems that it is indeed possible that this is ......"

"But do you remember the mysterious death of all the members of the Stone family? It obviously can't be a natural cause, it's just that another group of people suddenly appeared and took away what little peace they had......" Alan said, and the words suddenly changed, "I think it's the Winslow family." ”

"Why them?" asked Riel.

"Because it can only be them!" Allen's eyes sharpened, "because after the MONOCULUS was sealed, they were the ones who jumped out to take over the rest of the work as soon as possible!"

Rare still didn't understand, but Alyssa looked like she suddenly realized, "You mean...... They took advantage of the revolving book house!?"

"That's right," said Allen, "there's a question that has been bothering me for a long time...... That is, why was it that after so long the MONOCULUS had been raging, when the transmission of information across the continent had been seriously disrupted, they were able to get accurate information in the first place, so that they could respond in time? Only now do I understand that there is only one reason...... That is, they destroyed the Stone family, and then they took over here, they took over the Rotating Book House. ”

"Yes...... Although their style of doing things is always a bit secretive, I can tell that they take the castle very seriously. Alyssa nodded.

"Hmm...... Although they formed the Magic Management Association under the banner of governing the Hepu Continent together, in fact, only the people of their family and henchmen held power...... And in order not to make the world suspicious, they also deliberately set up this place as a school, in fact, it is nothing more than to be able to hold this castle firmly in their hands...... After all, our thoughts and actions are much easier to grasp and control than adults. ”

Riel nodded.

Alan continued: "It stands to reason that this library is very old, and the location is poorly drained, so it should be covered with dust and moss, but in fact there is no sign of this at all...... This shows that it has always been in operation, but it is no longer used by the Stone family, but instead by the Winslow family. ”

"If that's really the case...... In other words, it was supposed to be the Stone family's chance to make a comeback, but it was taken away by the Winslow family?"

"Yes, exactly. Alan looked around cautiously again, "But it's good that you know about it, and don't tell anyone...... Because this is just some unfounded speculation on my part, it may seem to outsiders that it may be a slander against the Winslow family. ”

"Got it!" both Riel and Alyssa nodded.

"It's time for us to go...... It's been too long, or I'm going to be late!" Alan said as he led the two of them through the general hall.

The three of them went all the way to the enchantment classroom. There was a cold wind blowing at the door, and they all felt a little chilly. Fortunately, although the enchantment classroom is open-air, it is still very warm inside due to the protection of the enchantment, especially with so many students huddled together.

Professor Wagbein's lecture style is as easy as ever, throwing all the questions to the students and letting them answer them themselves, while he is only responsible for supplementing and correcting them.

It was the first time the three of them had taken this class together. Originally, today was the day of the Earth Elemental Magic class, but due to the special situation of this week, which involved more than two days of rest in the middle of the month, and Professor Stubone had no intention of making up for the class, they could only seize all the opportunities to attend classes as much as possible, so as not to fall behind any part of the class.

After this class, the three of them had a simple lunch together and went back to their rooms to rest.

Alyssa and Riel don't have to go to class in the afternoon, so they can breathe a sigh of relief, but Alan can't. He had already missed his first Earth Elemental Magic class, and although he knew that the chances of him being able to use this type of magic were extremely slim, he still felt that it would be better to follow Professor Stubourne's instructions and have an explanation with him when the time came.

So at two o'clock in the afternoon, although it was still raining, he still put up his umbrella and set off.

However, as the weather changed, his bad luck had just stopped for two days and seemed to be coming again.

On the way to the Elemental Tower, he tripped over a stone brick protruding from the ground, and one stumbled to his feet, both feet stepping into the puddle, and his shoes were completely soaked. Fortunately, Cynthia knew some advanced fire elemental magic, and although it took some time, she still helped him dry his shoes, at least so that he wouldn't feel his feet freeze.

But just after class, when the two of them walked out of the door of the Elemental Tower, another accident happened.

Alan had just propped up the umbrella, but suddenly felt a strange wind blowing, Cynthia was not affected at all, but his umbrella flew several meters away.

"Oh, what the hell!" Alan srieked out in disappointment, trying to pick it up, only to find that his umbrella seemed to be against him, and every time it was about to be picked up, it was blown away again.

"Damn it!" Alan was a little annoyed, because he was already soaked with the umbrella.

Cynthia didn't expect this, so she had to hold up an umbrella and come over to help him.

But just when he finally got the umbrella back, he heard a loud "bang!" behind him exploding at his feet, as if something had hit his legs, and his hairs stood on end.

Cynthia and he turned their heads tremblingly, only to find that the sound was a rock larger than their heads, shattered on the ground.

The two of them looked up again and found that it seemed to be part of the wall of the Elemental Tower, which had peeled off due to the bad weather of the past two days.

Alan felt a little chill down his spine when he saw it, because with the size of this stone, if it had fallen on his head just now, he would definitely be dead.

But just as he was congratulating himself on his luck, he caught a glimpse of someone standing not far from him, as if staring at him.

Allen's heart tightened, and he immediately turned his head to look, and found that it was none other than Frey who was staring at him. Upon closer inspection, he saw that he was still holding a wand in his hand, and a yellowish glow was fading from the tip of the wand......
