Chai Anping closed his eyes and felt the flow of magic around him.
He was cooking in the kitchen just now, and he was not sure if Lulu's sisters had come into the library. He asked Lux, but she was quite sure that no one came here.
"There's no problem with magic power..."
With the strength of the two of them, it is basically impossible to steal a book behind their backs.
Even if Lux is fascinated by the book, the magic power in her body will remind her.
"Let's ask Lulu when she comes back," Lux said.
"It can only be the."
After all, it is not your own library, there may be hidden settings.
However, Chai Anping was a little unwilling. There was still half of the book, and he hadn't seen it!
Listening to Chai Anping's description of the contents of the book, Lux was also shocked: "How about you look for these books again, and maybe they can record a lot of secrets when put together."
"Well, you come too!"
"……ah?"
…
"Gracie, this book is going to bite!"
Lux used magic to control a tome with teeth in her hand.
"Let me take a look."
This is also a book that is sealed by chains. There are rows of tooth marks on the book cover, which are deep and shallow on the leather. It looks a bit seeping.
The writing style of this book is an ancient style of writing that is now commonly used. The two of them can only barely recognize it and can read it without any hindrance.
"The word is 'dragon'! I saw Prince Jarvan writing this word."
"Then the coherent reading is "The Decline of the Dragon Clan"."
"I've never heard of the title of the book." Lux was surprised: "It sounds like a history book."
"But the gradual disappearance of the Dragon Clan is not a secret to Runeterra, right?" Chai Anping questioned: "The Dragon Clan was tyrannical and arrogant, and was hostile to the gods and other races. Over time, it was almost wiped out...
"
"You'll know after you open it and take a look."
Lux rolled her eyes at him and turned to the first page.
[Dragon is one of the first ancient creatures to appear when Runeland was born. There is a long history engraved in their blood, and history gives them power.
In the beginning, the creatures in the world advocated simplicity and nature. The dragon believed in the great Aurelion Sol and believed in the Creator as the original ancestral dragon. He was the most devout dependent of Aurelion Sol...]
"hiss--"
"So the Dragon Clan is hanging out with Aurelion?"
Chai Anping was greatly surprised. This text introducing the origin of the Dragon Clan was directly related to the unknown history of the mainland.
[The Dragon King is humble and enthusiastic. He listens to the teachings of Aurelion Sol and bestows dragon-marked totems on mortals to help them resist natural disasters and wild beasts, becoming the leader of all spirits. 】
The page is equipped with a picture outlined in black pen and ink. The rough-style line drawing is a picture of people worshiping. On the central totem, the shadow of a giant dragon appears.
[...With the evolution of the world, the Dragon Clan gradually withdraws from the center stage of the world and becomes one of the ten thousand races, conceived and born by the gods...]
There are not many words in the book, but more shocking pictures, which are like scrolls printed from ancient murals, recording a great period.
"This is wrong. Why are the dragons recorded in the book so wise and also the protectors of mortals?" Chai Anping was a little dumbfounded.
The two couldn't wait to scroll down. In the era when the gods were shining, the dragons had indeed gradually become dim, but with the powerful dragon king, they were still a race with a strong voice.
And from time to time, he can be summoned by Aurelion Sol to listen to his teachings.
Mortals gradually grew up under their protection and became another powerful force in the world.
An unknown amount of time has passed, and in this ancient book that is unknown who wrote it or when it was born, the years and periods all appear to be short, like a fleeting moment.
【Heaven comes!】
Four large characters occupy a whole page. In the picture scroll, endless meteors are falling towards the earth.
[The celestial beings born from the stars are powerful, mysterious, and can freely enter and leave this nascent land. They claim that the celestial beings are the descendants of Aurelion Sol. Aurelion created the boundless universe and thousands of stars.
, and they were born in the stars.
Aurelion Sol was delighted with their arrival and helped them create the heaven hanging high in the sky. Hundreds of years later, the heavenly beings began to teach ‘star magic’ to mortals.]
[The stars are shining, the beliefs of mortals are gradually changing, and fierce conflicts have broken out between dragons and heavenly beings.]
[Aurelion Sol remains silent.]
[The original dragon pattern totem in the center of the continent was destroyed, and human beings were divided into two parts, the stars and the dragons, and a war broke out. The gods claimed to be prayed by believers and announced their participation in the war. ]
[On the same day, the dragon joined the battle.]
【……】
The words disappeared, leaving only tragic scrolls describing the cruelty of war.
Blood rain splashed, stars fell, and huge dragon corpses blocked the river...
At the end of the book, the text finally reappears:
[Aurelion Thor summoned the Dragon King and ordered him to end the war... After leaving the temple, the Dragon King angrily crashed into the heavens. His huge body and the heavens were bathed in flames and fell into the ocean. The heavens and humans were killed and injured.
Tragically, the Dragon King fell.】
[The war has ended, and the mortals who believe in dragons have migrated away from the tribe.]
[The gods secretly used all the stars that died in the war to suppress it and cursed the body of the Dragon King. Since then, the dragon clan has fallen into cruelty and madness day by day. 】
[It can be foreseen that this once glorious race will forever withdraw from the stage of history and become a sad creature as inferior as a beast...]
【I am here, I record, I remember.】
【To the great dragon king!】
When I reached the end of the book, the hole that looked like it was poked with dragon's teeth was almost bleeding.
The last scene of the stars suppressing the dragon corpse is full of evil and makes people extremely uneasy.
In fact, when they saw the back, Chai Anping and Lux had subconsciously held their breath. This heavy and absurd history made them immersed in it wholeheartedly.
The lifelike drawings presented the most extreme picture they could imagine directly in front of them.
"call--"
After a long time, the two of them exhaled in tacit agreement and looked at each other with complicated emotions.
This history that is earlier than ancient times is so magnificent and exciting that it makes people sigh and sigh with the tragic ending of the Dragon Clan.
"Could this be true?" Lux asked softly.
"This recorder must be very powerful, otherwise he would not know so many inside stories about the war. Is it necessary for such a person to lie?" Chai Anping asked rhetorically.
Lux sighed after hearing this: "Is this a heavenly being..."
