Wait a minute......

Something seems to be wrong.

Although everything here was completely foreign to Lanaya, when she re-exited just now, she seemed to have discovered something—something she had seen before.

The runes on the walls that resemble eyes.

Ever seen...... I must have seen it somewhere.

But she couldn't remember.

Touching the back of his right hand, which was a little warm,

I guess it was a delusion.

"Hey!" Grint shook his hand at her, "I don't know how to help you get back, so why don't you stay here, Hidden City is a big city...... Also, I'm going to take the Hidden Sanctuary test, so come with me to try it out!"

"Is the Hidden Sanctuary an organization?"

"Hmm...... Something like that. ”

"Forget it, don't go. Lanaya said as she walked forward, surveying the building in front of her, and then turning back again, "But thank you, I think it's still ...... for places like the Hidden Sanctuary Not for me. ”

This may no longer be the continent where she once was. This means that she is free from the control of the Thieves' Guild. She didn't want to limit her freedom anymore because of what organization she was a member of.

At this time, Grinter's eyes were filled with only one meaning: this person is hopeless.

"You don't know how many people are eager to join the Hidden Sanctuary! many people don't even have the chance to walk through the door in their lifetimes...... Anyway, you probably don't even know what I'm talking about, so where are you going next?"

"Let's go to a bookstore part-time. I usually have books to read, and I don't find it boring. Speaking of this, Lanaya couldn't help but smile, leaving the dark work life and being safe and stable, which can be regarded as a long-cherished wish.

"Hahaha...... That's what you're pursuing...... I'm sorry. Seeing the change in her eyes, Grint hurriedly changed her words, "No, I said, if that's all you need, you might as well try it with me." The collection of books in the Hidden Sanctuary is undoubtedly the most complete, and it cannot be surpassed anywhere. ”

"Is this true?"

"What am I lying to you for? I have a senior, and just with a book there, I broke my five-year bottleneck!"

Looking at the person Grint, it should not be a liar. She healed her wounds and did not ask for anything in return, and seemed to be of good nature.

"Okay. Lanaya said.

-

"The Hidden Sanctuary test is divided into several stages, and the selection is very strict, and I am not completely sure. ”

They walked for an unknown amount of time, until they came to a deserted place, which was the northern end of the Holy Hidden City.

"Find the glowing pieces and put them together in a hexagonal shape. Grint looked at the wilderness road in front of him.

"Why?"

"There is no why, there is a lesson from the past. Grint had already found the first piece from the half-hidden dirt, "During the test, the doors of the Hidden Sanctuary will be open to the outside, but whether we can find it or not depends on our ability. ”

Lanaya had no choice but to do so.

If you look for a needle in a haystack, the time it takes can be imagined. The sky turned from white to black, but in the dark, it seemed much easier to do so.

"I've found ......" Grint ran towards Lanaya, only to see another person standing in front of her.

"I discovered this piece first. The teenager insisted.

But the piece was pinched in Lanaya's hand at this time, and it was only because she played a little trick to slow down the speed of the contenders that she got it first.

"Let's not talk about this for now. If I'm not mistaken, you're the one who was on top of me during the day, waiting for an opportunity, and when I settled everything, to snatch my loot?"

The boy gritted his teeth, and finally turned away.

"Humph......"

Seeing that Grint had already come, Lanaya shook her head and said, "It's okay, if he can enter, don't pay attention to him in the future." ”

"Don't be so confident in me......" Grint smiled sheepishly.

"Here we go. ”

The two of them placed the pieces vertically and hung them in the air, and the pieces suddenly enlarged to form a hexagonal light gate on both sides, from which they opened.

From the outside, you can see the scene inside, the eyes are full of snow-white stone steps, the two of them glanced at each other, as if they both saw the amazement in each other's eyes, and then stepped in at the same time.

The two doors vanished in an instant, and the hexagonal card shrunk back into their hands.

The length of the steps alone is impressive. Standing at the bottom end, you can only see a corner of the building above, and the most incredible thing is that this side of the door is still daylight.

"Hurry up!" Grint couldn't wait, cast an acceleration spell on himself and Lanaya, and rushed forward.

The building on the steps, little by little, is revealed.

None of the castles are as ornate as it is.

It's magnificent.

Lanaya thought that it didn't seem as bad as she thought it would be.

She already loves this place.

With the acceleration technique, it is equivalent to making the feet lighter, and ten minutes of climbing high is not tiring for them at all.

"This is the Hidden Sanctuary?"

"Yes, but it's only part of the front hall, and the main hall is still behind. ”

Lanaya let out a small sigh of amazement.

They stopped in front of a door.

"Entering this door, the first round of testing begins. You can only get in one person at a time, and I ......" Grint suddenly clenched her fists, her body trembling a little, "I didn't pass the first round last time. ”

"Don't be nervous, you can definitely this time. ”

"Thank you, I'll do my best. Grimm let out a long exhale, turned around, and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Eh, do you have a magic crystal?"

"What is a magic crystal?"

"People outside the door, don't waste any more time. Suddenly a word came from inside the door, and at the same time, the door opened a crack of its own accord.

"What will be used for later testing...... Don't say anything, I've got to go in!"

As the gate closed, bringing up wisps of white mist in the corners, Lanaya couldn't help but shiver.

Magic crystals, Lanaya has heard this kind of saying, powerful magic objects generally have magic crystals in them, which are what they store energy. Could it be that the person who snatched the magic crystal before?

All right......

The fragment of the light gate was not enough to worry about, and he snatched her most important ticket!

It's definitely impossible to find him to come back now, and it's even more impossible to go out hunting and hunt again! I just want to find a place to read in peace, and there is no need to risk my life.

It seems that you can consider buying one...... But to make money......

"I've passed, I've passed, I've passed, hahahaha, I love you to death, Lanaya, with you, my whole person is different!"

“......”

In order to prevent Grint from falling down the steps, Lanaya thought about it and took the bear hug anyway.

"Go ahead, I'll wait for you outside, and we'll go to the second round together. ”

She also wanted to ask about the specific things about the magic crystal, but she was afraid that she would be urged again, so she nodded and went in.

There is no hole in the door.

The first thing you see is the full bookshelves that surround the walls, covering an area of about one hectare and at least twenty meters high.

Grint said that the Hidden Sanctuary was well stocked, and she believed it.

But with no one in sight, she could only ask, "Is there anyone?"

"Go ahead. ”

And she walked on.

In such a place, she couldn't guess what the test was about, and she didn't dare to guess.

As she got closer, she gradually saw one or two people, probably because the light inside was too dark and she hadn't gotten used to it.

"Hum—"

Somehow, she suddenly had some ...... Headache, but only briefly, and then she realized something terrible.

She felt an object light up in her mind, and she knew exactly where it was. It's in this room.

Two o'clock, fifth row, back center...... That's it.

At this time, the two people waiting here had been watching her for a long time.

"Can I read the books here?"

She didn't dare to take it for herself, but acted according to their eyes.

His gaze froze for a long time, and the man in it raised his head, still staring at her: "Of course you can." ”

Lanaya always had a hunch that if she did get it, she would be severely punished. However, the aura of that thing was very familiar to her, and it seemed to be her former possession, and she must go and see it.

Keeping an eye on the movements of the two men, he walked over to the bookshelf and pulled out the book.

The book suddenly opens on its own and flips back frantically!

She was shocked.

But that's not the scariest thing.

In the stop page is a yellowed, crumpled, torn piece of paper. It is full of handwriting.

"No...... It couldn't be ......."

This is a page in her most important notes. Page 1.

That's right, it's the one that was completely burned to ashes by the fire!

She quickly hid it in the palm of her hand, closed the book and put it back.

Didn't put it back.

She was suddenly tied by a rope and pulled in front of the man: "Destroy books, you are so daring!"

The rope was not a hemp rope, but was made entirely of light purple light, but it was so solid that it could not be broken.

"I don't have ......"

The rope exerted its force again, suppressing the blood vessels in her wrist, and Lanaya finally couldn't hold the paper ball anymore and fell out.

The paper ball automatically flew into the man's hand and was gradually spread out.

After reading it, the man frowned.

"I didn't tear it off, I fell it, please...... Give me back ......."

The man glanced at her, and the fragments were crumpled back into a ball of paper and fell to the ground.

"It's another matter if you can't win, but don't you even know how to resist instinctively? Don't tell me you can't use psychic abilities!"

The rope was released, and Lanaya quickly snatched the paper ball back.

"The Hidden Sanctuary doesn't need waste that doesn't even use psionic energy, you can go. ”

Lanaya dismissed the idea of asking him "what is psionic energy?" Laugh at yourself, it doesn't matter anymore.

She got what she didn't dare to imagine. More appropriately, it is lost and regained.

It's a miracle.

-

"How?"

"No, I didn't. Lanaya just smiled, "It's okay, thank you for bringing me here, I'll go to the bookstore to work in the future." ”

When she turned around, she didn't see how sorry Grinter's expression was.

It doesn't matter anymore.

I don't know how the burned notes were restored here, but there must be a second and third pages on the first page...... Someday, they'll all be able to get them back.

It was her most important note, a record of spatial magic that had not yet been passed down to the world.
