"I forgot to ask you your name. I'm just too thirsty for your knowledge, and sometimes I forget the proper etiquette. You don't mind, right?"
"Fisher Benavidez."
"Oh, no problem, Fisher, this is a good name...it always reminds me of those dragon races in the Dragon Court."
Fisher and Jasmine walked down the stairs to the second floor. After answering Sir Shu's words, he nodded and circled around Fisher.
Siatt and Anna looked at Fisher at the same time, especially Anna, who obviously couldn't wait any longer. She just heard Sir Shu's words and frowned slightly.
"We can't wait until the morning to go in. If we wait any longer, Blake will probably come over!"
"There is no way. If [Concealed Magic] is designed here, we can only wait for a specific activation time. There are three ways to activate Concealed Magic. The other two require designers to do it. This magic was designed decades ago.
I don’t know if the magician is still around now..."
According to Sir Shu's reminder, Fisher, who had a lot of knowledge in his mind, quickly thought of Black's method of burying magic here. He probably used a hidden magic based on time.
As we all know, magic works by leveraging the reverberations of the world, so please think about the following two questions:
Will it respond if you use magic to move the world at any time of the day?
If they all respond, will the effect be the same?
The answer is that although the world will respond to the lever at any time, the intensity of each response varies from subtle to obvious.
The world's response will change sensitively with time, geographical location and other factors. Some responses will be strengthened or weakened under specific factors. For example, magic with [Moon] and [Light] as the ring will
There are magics that are strengthened during the night, and there are also magics that are strengthened during the day.
According to the extension of this theory, if we design a magic so that its touch standard reaches the intensity that requires a specific time, and it will not appear until the specific echo intensity, then this constitutes the most basic [hidden magic]
.
However, even this most basic concealment magic requires very advanced engraving techniques, because the engraver needs to have a keen sense of the degree of reverberation.
Only one-third of the certified members of the entire Magic Association can carve such magic.
If your magic attainments are higher, reaching a level similar to that of Mr. Hailsson, then you can also make the hidden magic move in a more "hidden" direction, for example, you need a specific person and a specific password to make this magic active.
This kind of hidden magic is usually engraved in the cracks of the world. This is why Fisher cannot detect the fluctuations of the engraved magic at the scene. But then again, if Black's treasure house is very simple, the royal family
It’s impossible not to discover that there is magic here after all these years.
According to Sir Book, Fisher guessed that there were two nested hidden magics engraved in this library.
The first is the simplest hidden magic. This magic can only be awakened during the day by combining the mechanisms according to a specific physical arrangement. This magic will show a "password" to open the inner magic; then, the entrant needs to use this
The password awakens a second hidden magic that can only be turned on during the day.
This design is very clever. The two-layer insurance requires many prerequisites, otherwise you will not even be able to discover the existence of the magic emblem.
After hearing Fisher's explanation of this magic, Anna, who still didn't quite understand the principle, pursed her lips but had no words to refute. At the expense of her culture, she could only sit there unwillingly and hugged him.
own knees and thighs.
Sir Shu next to him sighed after hearing this. He didn't know much about the content of magic.
"You are still a magician who studies magic? This is really good. There are many such people among humans... I basically can't read magic books, so I didn't write down the contents of any magic books. It seems that in the future
You don’t need to ask me about magic, and it will save me from embarrassment.”
In fact, in most cases, there is nothing to ask. Fisher knows a lot, but after all, he is not omnipotent, and sometimes he will have questions. At this time, it is most cost-effective to ask this relic who has recorded a lot of knowledge.
of.
Fisher ignored him and looked down at the clock hanging on the wall in the library. It was about three hours before sunrise. Unfortunately, it was already autumn. If it were still summer, the solar energy would rise earlier.
"Since there is no way to change it, let's take this time to take a good rest and adjust our state... Is anyone hungry?"
Anna and Siatt both shook their heads. Sir Shu didn't need to eat. Jasmine actually wanted to eat, but she watched helplessly as the others didn't eat, and she closed her mouth tightly to show that she wasn't hungry.
In fact, there was no rest at all in these three hours. Everyone was in a tense mood and did not dare to relax.
Jasmine sat on the chair next to her that was used for reading books. She held a book and read it. Occasionally, she would look at Fisher next to her with some worry and tell him something about her aunt.
Jasmine is actually a very delicate girl. Sometimes even though she has many thoughts in her heart, she won't reveal them because she considers other people's feelings.
Even though she knew the difference in the lifespan of whale species, knew that her aunt might be nearing the end of her lifespan, and knew that her aunt might be kidnapped by Black, she still would not say anything in order to prevent Fisher from being distracted from the matter in front of him.
In fact, she felt very sad and worried, but this emotion would only bloom quietly when she went to bed at night. When she woke up, she would always look optimistic in front of Fisher, every day.
Every time he turned his head to look at her, she was always smiling.
Siatt seemed a little bored. She originally wanted to imitate Jasmine and read a book, but she found that she couldn't read it at all and didn't even know a few words, so she had to take out the quiver behind her and put it in
Take out the arrow whose tail feathers are wet with water and let it dry.
As for Book Sir, after Fisher introduced himself, he found that Fisher didn't like him at all, so he floated next to Jasmine and explained to her the "History of Shivali" she was reading.
He secretly swore in his heart that if Fisher did not take the initiative to ask him questions, he would remain silent and not reveal the knowledge recorded in his body.
Emhart will never lick books, this is his bottom line...unless this human being named Fisher asks for it!
Anna sat on the ground, lowering her head without saying a word. Fisher keenly noticed that her calves exposed outside the hem of her skirt were shaking slightly, not because of the cold, but because of the uncertain uneasiness.
She was very worried that this operation would fail, and she could not destroy the relic that restricted her freedom.
If you get closer, you can still hear her whispering something,
"Mother God bless...Mother God bless...Mother God bless..."
Fisher glanced at her, worried that she would be nervous to the point of collapse, and wanted to make her relax, so he suddenly asked,
"When did you start believing in the Mother Goddess?"
Anna's prayer stopped abruptly, her face turned a little pale, and after hesitating for a second, she turned to Fisher and said,
"A few months after coming to the Western Continent, in the Pink Pavilion, my sister said that a guest gave her a symbol of the Mother Goddess..."
As she spoke, she pulled out a metal round pendant from her arms, with a positive V shape engraved on it, which is the symbol of the [Holy Grail], symbolizing the characteristics of women and representing the fertility gift given to humans by the Mother Goddess.
strength.
The carrier of the symbol can be the sun, or it can be a star shape or a half-moon shape, which represents the moon, sun, stars and other symbols around the mother goddess.
These things usually belong to church members, which means that the person who patronized her sister's business at that time was a church member.
"The messenger of the Mother Goddess patronizes this kind of business, and you end up converting to the Mother Goddess..."
Fisher looked at the pendant in her hand and commented.
But Anna smiled disapprovingly and rubbed the pendant, trying to absorb the few heat from this small pendant.
"That customer was the best customer to my sisters. He would not beat them, pinch their necks and force them to say shameful words, nor would he suffocate them. He would also give extra tips... so
, my sisters felt that he was the attendant of the Mother Goddess, and that the Mother Goddess must be taking care of them."
Fisher's eyes flickered slightly, his throat suddenly became a little dry, and he didn't know how to evaluate it.
Is this because the Mother Goddesses are too kind, or are they too tolerant? Fisher doesn't know.
"How did you come to the Western Continent?"
Fisher originally wanted to light a cigarette, but when he searched his arms, he found nothing. He forgot that he had changed his clothes. Of course, there was nothing in his pocket, so he had to touch his own.
Collar, changed the topic.
"...I originally lived in the Lu tribe in the south of the Southern Continent. People in this tribe all use the name of the tribe as their surname. For us humans in the Southern Continent, your surname actually indicates which tribe you are from. I really
My name is not Anna, it is the name of the Western Continent that Blake gave me. My real name is Laiya Lu, and my father is the leader of the Lu tribe."
As Fisher listened, he suddenly felt a little familiar, and then he suddenly thought of Rafael, because Rafael's father was also the chief of the Nanzhi tribe, and her fate was somewhat similar to Rafael's.
Similar, yet completely different in the end.
"After the tribe was invaded by people from the Western Continent, all the men in the tribe were killed, and us women were sold as slaves by merchants. Finally, a businessman without a business license from the Southern Continent bought us and wanted us to
Go work in his prostitution house in the Western Continent..."
"That poor guy had no business qualifications or money, so he smuggled us back to the Western Continent in a broken wooden boat filled with fish. On the boat, we were short of water and food, and our sisters were infected with the disease. Everyone was worried
We were lingering on the line of death. Oh, but when we arrived at Nali Customs, we were discovered by officials from Nali. The businessman was worried about being fined, so he did not come to claim us. The officials saw that we were infected with the disease and were ready to take my
The sisters were burned to death. Just as we were being dragged toward the incinerator, Black appeared..."
"He bought us, treated our illnesses, and gave us new clothes to wear. At first, I thought this old man was sent by God to save us, but then I discovered that he was no different from other people in the Western Continent.
, even crazier. Unlike other people from the Western Continent, what he was after was not just gold and treasure... Next, I watched helplessly as my sisters were tortured to death one by one, and there was nothing I could do about it."
"He didn't ask me to pick up customers, he just asked me to manage those compatriots who were forced to pick up customers and participate in experiments. I didn't suffer that kind of suffering, but every time they suffered, it was like cutting a knife into my heart... I didn't
Other methods can only make me experience the same suffering as them, using my own method."
She clutched her sleeve tightly, but didn't exert much force, as if she was afraid of pinching her arm.
"When I left the Southern Continent, I promised my sisters a very innocent wish, saying that one day I would take them back... I also used to resent all the people in the Western Continent, but I later discovered that,
There are good people and bad people everywhere. I have been persecuted by Blake, but I have also been helped and inspired by people like you and Your Highness Elizabeth Yin..."

"And now, at this moment, I am only one step away from freedom... I may be just a little too anxious, anxious to destroy the relic that binds me. Sorry, I didn't mean to cause trouble.
, your consideration is right."
Hiatt and Jasmine stopped what they were doing at some point, and turned to look at Anna who was sitting there with red eyes in sympathy.
Siatt had a similar experience to her. He also left his hometown thousands of miles to come to the strange Western Continent, trying to use his meager power to change the current situation.
Now Siatt suddenly felt that for Biana, she was already very lucky. Although the new party didn't care much about her, she must be thankful that no one cared about her...
Fisher looked at Anna. Her story was so similar to that of Rafael, but the only difference was that she was not a world-destroyer like Rafael. She did not have the power to destroy the world or the corresponding wisdom.
, only the courage to make a desperate move with passion, just like countless slaves who died in obscurity on the routes between the southern and western continents, without leaving even tombstones.
Fisher showed no expression, just stretched out his fist towards Anna,
"After morning, we will destroy the relic, and then you can take the souls of your sisters back to the Southern Continent."
