Chapter 46 The Tower of Truth

This is the world of books.

This is not just a boast - in this tower, all the inanimate permanent objects you see are either books or bookshelves.

The rectangular bookshelf used by humans, the tetrahedron bookshelf floating in the air, the spiral bookshelf... Those are bookshelves that are completely beyond the limitations of human common sense and aesthetics.

In fact, that's right. Because this is not a bookshelf that humans can use, but a bookshelf that has been passed down from a time when elves and dragons were still active in the world, and when mages were the mainstream among spellcasters.

It is not a container to hold books, but something more essential to hold the carrier of knowledge.

The crystal hangings hanging from the ceiling are actually some kind of mineral used by fairies to record history; those seemingly ordinary long tables and ladders used to climb to high places are actually books that have been changed in appearance.

.In addition, including but not limited to table decorations, drinking glasses, tableware for eating, and beds for sleeping...all of these are formed by deformed bookshelves and books

of.

If outsiders entered, this closed space without any beacons would surely make them lost here.

Not only are there no beacons here, there are no labels for classification on any of the books, not to mention the bookshelf that is slowly moving and adjusting its position.

However, in this chaotic space that seems to have no order, a deeper order permeates all the chaos.

Those are the black runes that rotate very slowly in a certain pattern on the ground, walls and ceiling.

Those were not the ancient runes of Elkart, nor the Astral Language used by the priests.

It was developed by the wizards themselves based on the runes on the Wall of Orm, and is specifically used to define the world and describe the world at the level of laws; it was truly created by the wizards, not inherited from the mages.

A true product of creation.

If you delve deeply enough into the secret language of the White Tower, you can easily see through the true meaning of those lines.

Although it looks like decoration or protection, it actually does not form any barrier. Its only function is to guide others, just like a pamphlet handed out by a tour guide.

In this tall tower that is always running on its own and circulating endlessly, the thing that can reveal the location of the book you want to find at the moment must also be constantly running.

The so-called "truth changes all the time, and the means of pursuing the truth must also constantly change" - this is the core idea of ​​the White Tower Wizard, and is completely opposite to the "truth is eternal" concept maintained by the alchemists.

One of them is exploring the unknown future, while the other is learning from the glorious past. It can be said that this is the initial and biggest point of difference between the two schools of wizards and alchemists.

But just like alchemists who often invent new things, although wizards believe that they cannot dwell on the past, they have not abandoned history.

This is the Tower of Truth. The original White Tower, the recorder of all things.

The Tower of Truth in the south and the Winter Fruit Club in the north—after the complete collapse of the Akashic Records, these are the two most complete databases in the world.

Unlike the Dongguo Society, which focuses on collecting secrets and recording real history, the Tower of Truth is just like its name, and everything it stores is knowledge.

From the birth of wizards to today, all experimental records and results reports of wizards inside the White Tower are stored here. In addition, there are also research results of scholars in various fields, collected from the outside world.

Legend has it that even the public or semi-public experimental reports of the alchemists are backed up here.

After the emergence of the index query system based on the secret language of the White Tower sixty years ago, few wizards would continue to study and recite the vast amount of knowledge that could not be learned by dozens of generations. Instead, they devoted their precious time to experimentation and innovation.

Go ahead and save tons of time with this query system.

However, An Ruosi was not included among these wizards.

In a corner of the White Tower, the void suddenly collapsed, flickering with electric light and becoming blurry at the same time. It was like penetrating a soap bubble, when the space that collapsed to the limit suddenly rebounded and trembled slightly in the air.

, An Ruosi, wearing a cardinal's robe, stepped out of it.

After he appeared, the space seemed to light up, and the space swayed slightly like water ripples. Seeing this scene, the wizards standing or sitting around holding books immediately put away the books in their hands and respectfully

He bent slightly towards An Ruosi.

"Your Excellency An Ruosi."

"No need to be polite."

Even though he was almost the youngest among this group of wizards, An Ruosi didn't show any signs of nervousness. He just waved his hand in an easy-going manner: "I have something else to do and will leave in a moment - where is Teacher Merlin?"

"this……"

"In the Nev area, there are seventy-three columns in twenty columns, and around thirteen to fifteen columns."

In the awkward situation where the wizards were either at a loss or smiling bitterly, a purple-robed wizard who hurriedly walked towards us with a thick book in his hand immediately responded: "I went to find "Half-Dragon Species and Dragon-like Species and

"The Difference of Yalong", I saw him there looking for books. If you go there now, it should be too late."

"Thanks, Mr. Patch."

An Ruosi nodded gratefully to him. There was no sign of An Ruosi chanting or casting a spell. A twisted and collapsed space appeared in front of him. An Ruosi stepped into it without hesitation. Before he took a step, An Ruosi nodded gratefully.

After stepping out, the surrounding environment has changed drastically. The surroundings are magnificent scenery that should not appear in the world of Farnes.

If I had to use one word to describe it, I can only use "Galaxy" to describe it.

Those are the so-called stars - they have been destroyed nearly two thousand years ago, what the world looked like before the birth of Fauns. Even now, the word "stars" generally refers to the kingdoms of false gods that are far away.

It’s a speck of light left behind the Wall of Mu, but the word was actually born a long, long time ago.

In the whole of Farnes, this is the only place where you can see the true appearance of the stars.

But unfortunately, these stars are still fake. In fact, this is still a bookshelf.

Every star is a book. If you don't know anything about astrology and witchcraft, you will almost certainly get lost in this space. Therefore, even a great wizard will not just enter the Nev area to look for books.

An Ruosi looked around and immediately saw a white-haired old man who fit the image of an "old wizard" in people's mind. He was flipping a thin book in his hand and holding it in the crook of his left arm.

Thick slate.

That is Merlin the Keeper of Secrets, the Keeper of the Tower of Truth.

"Teacher, what are you looking for?" An Ruosi asked curiously.

"Oh, An Ruosi, you're back... I'm looking for information about the Seven Saints Statue of Elkart. That's why I asked you to come back. If I don't find it, you have to go to the Dongguo Society and ask.

Already."

When the great wizard Merlin heard An Ruosi's voice, he turned around and replied in an old and gentle voice: "If everything goes well, we may be able to find the remains of the legendary Akasha record."

At this time, an eye-like rune on Merlin's forehead was shining with a strange light.
