The slave scholars walked into the sixth library in amazement and gathered around the corpse of the old scholar - although it is normal for scholars to die in this library, three deaths in one day... is also very rare. p>
Li Yue took the opportunity to descend from the door, transformed into a scholar, put on his hood, walked backwards, and returned to the corridor.
There were only a few scholars who were sleeping soundly in the corridor who were not awakened. Li Yue walked past them and noticed that the person he was pretending to be, Laris, had lost his breath.
The fourth.
Li Yue guessed that this was the effect of the old scholar's spell before his death, but it was aimed at the wrong person.
Walking on the corridor, Li Yue pulled his hood lower, knowing that he was only one step away from victory. In Li Yue's original idea, the plan to kill the old scholar was not so complicated. It was probably a matter of using soul impact to smash it.
His brain, or directly hit his heart; but even after the baptism of the ultimate magic stone, the thoughts of the brain spirit still cannot directly act on the body of the creature, which adds a lot of footnotes to this silent battle.<
/p>
And unexpectedly, the old scholar also had two accomplices. Li Yue could only adapt to the situation, and he has reached this point - if there is a next time, the plan must be simpler to increase the error tolerance... Fortunately, the result is not bad? The old scholar's plan was destroyed, and Li Yue also choked the hidden Death Time... in the cradle. Then he only needs to return to the library hall to restore his brain spirit identity to end this.
An interlude...
Thinking about it, Li Yue stepped into the library hall - three or five slave scholars were already seated, the book demons were still closed, and the Minnies gathered by the wall to play with each other's faces... Occasionally, there were brain spirits who had not rested.
Floating in the hall, waiting for the next eight hours of translation work.
Li Yue lowered his head and walked to an empty long table, lying down weakly; letting go of his senses and making sure that no one noticed him, Li Yue suddenly returned to his brain body, walked under the table for a moment, and returned to
The table that belongs to you.
Li Yue, who finally calmed down, felt his whole body go cold the moment he felt relieved. He had a lot of fear, but more importantly, it was a kind of calmness that broke the shackles.
When the boundary between humans and demons is not so clear, although Li Yue cannot judge whether his actions are "just", he is absolutely sure that they are "necessary".
Then, Li Yue had some doubts about the reason why the Demon King left this mark, and also about what the "Devil's Market" was - it was the escape strategy of three old scholars, and it would appear on the next full moon. What did it mean?
What?
Do you want to take this opportunity to return to human society?
Through a morning of translation, Li Yue had a preliminary understanding of the current human situation - there are firearms, muskets, and some technologies developed from steam technology; the nobility and the church are in power, just like in the history of previous lives.
Holding privileges and mastering extraordinary power like "divine magic"...
As for the monsters, Li Yue guessed that they would not treat them kindly, but the current information was insufficient and he could not make a suitable conclusion. It seemed that he had to read more and collect some information inside and outside the city to determine his whereabouts.
Wait until the next full moon to go to the Devil's Market, and you may find some unexpected gains... Li Yue suddenly remembered the female thief Rockefeller he met in the vegetable field, and he didn't know if she had escaped.<
/p>
Li Yue was lying relaxed under the table when he suddenly heard a familiar soft and waxy voice.
"Brother, where have you been?" Minnie Minnie leaned against the leg of the table, looking around with her big round head.
Li Yue didn't expect that during the lunch break, these two little guys didn't get carried away with playing, but actually remembered his cheap brother.
"I found a place to rest for a while..." Li Yue was not sure how much they knew, so he made excuses and said perfunctorily.
"But we didn't even see you go out..." Minnie muttered.
"I didn't see you coming back either..." Mini added, "Where are you resting?"
"Here." Li Yue pointed to a crack in the wall to Minnie, who looked over suspiciously, not quite believing it.
"By the way, when you work in the afternoon, let's change some books to read..." Li Yue suddenly remembered that Naoling's translation work is very mechanical, but this does not mean that he cannot get the information he wants...
This is a library, which contains thousands of years of knowledge about the continent of Kaios. It is very suitable for Li Yue to increase his understanding of the world here - how many big guys became gods in the library? As long as there is no stealing of life
Xiaoxiao, the library is still a good starting point.
"Ah? What to change?" Minnie will make a sound of "ah" when she is confused.
"It's best to be related to humans, from the major kingdoms, the church...or the research on the Demon King's City in recent years." Li Yue decided on the scope of the first wave of major studies - human-related books would help Li Yue
Understand this world, and the research on the Demon King's City is directly related to the current living environment. It is not an exaggeration to know more.
"I know, it's to experience more roles! Really!" Minnie Minnie said in unison, still immersed in role play, "We have been playing the story of the textile worker for half a year, and it's not fun anymore..."
"Yes, really smart!" Li Yue praised Minnie Minnie.
"Then this book... Death... Dessler... is very suitable!" Minnie picked up the next book that Li Yue was about to translate, jumped up, and accidentally hit the desk.
"Right? This word means 'death', right? De, s, le!" Minnie Minnie couldn't read the whole word, so she basically had to guess.
"I know these two words! They are small towns! Together they are..." Minnie tried to distinguish them.
"Desler, the town of death!" Minnie Minnie spent a lot of time spelling out the meaning of the word.
"Yes, yes, yes, human beings all live in small towns! And they will die! There must be more interesting stories than the textile workers!" Minnie Minnie's understanding of books is relatively superficial, and she thought she had discovered a treasure.
Li Yue was speechless, but when he saw Minnie's excited look, he did not refuse. He said that it would not be too late to explain to them after the aftermath of the old scholar's death, so he nodded his head in agreement.
At this moment, the library hall was once again filled with slave scholars, preparing to start their afternoon work; the book demon also opened the pages of the book again, and the handwriting on the paper kept counting, as if counting the number of people who came back.
"That's right! We left a piece of meat for you!" Minnie stood back beside the stack of books and winked at Li Yue.
"Asshole~ I told you to stop talking~" Minnie scolded Minnie, but her expression seemed to be asking for credit.
"You are so kind." Li Yue had no intention of tasting the meat. All his attention was focused on the book demon, observing its reaction.
[Parsing...74%...]
Without the ties of the old scholar, Li Yue was finally able to complete the analysis of the book demon; but when the book demon counted to forty, he still did not see the remaining four slave scholars, and the pages moved automatically without any wind, as if he was angry.
.
"The time has come, where are the people?" The entire page of Book Demon's book is filled with big questions.
Li Yue huddled on the empty table, squeezing his mind and acting confused.
"Those who are late will die...I will kill them..." Blood-red writing appeared in the blank space of the paper, shocking.
"You can't kill them anymore..." The slave scholars responded with some weak voices, which did not escape the Book Demon's perception.
"?" The Book Demon slowly wrote a question mark.
"They... are already dead." The slave scholars said feebly.
"Four? All dead?"
Li Yue knew that the time had come to test the results.
With a crash, the pages of the book were as sharp as a knife in an instant.
