Chapter 34 The Good Man
The last ray of sunset disappeared from the horizon in the distance.
The city of Solan is still brightly lit.
In the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce, Leonard and his group had left, leaving Zhujue alone sitting in the second floor room enjoying a sumptuous dinner.
Several employees of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce stood by the table, waiting to be called to ask questions.
"The president, Mr. Leonard and his companions chose to live in the Flower Hotel two blocks away, and our people asked the hotel owner and they booked a room for only one night!"
"Only order one night..... The elimination of the dream eaters was a condition for trading with the Loken Priest. Leonard had previously mentioned that the task would be completed before tomorrow.
No, that means their final action should be tonight or tomorrow. It seems that my previous speculation is correct."
Leonard and others did not stay in the Chamber of Commerce's hotel after bandaging the wound at the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce. Even though Zhu Jue took the initiative to invite him, the former chose to leave.
This is clearly because some things are wanted to hide from Zhu Jue, or because he is worried that he will suddenly ask about the purpose of the Dream Tour. He will definitely not say it. If he refuses it flatly, it seems that it is not good to have a cold encounter before the "feeling" that both sides have finally cultivated.
Just leave first and be respectful.
Distance produces beauty.
"Did you find any information when I handed you the note I gave you before?"
He turned his eyes to another person and asked.
In the afternoon, when I was chasing the cultist in the Garden Water Gate, I saw him running into the Solan City Library. Zhu Jue felt something was wrong. You should know that even if the dream eater was performing a mortal self-sacrifice during the battle, he didn't even frown. However, this guy had no intention of participating in the war from beginning to end, and even chose to escape in the end.
There is only one reason that prompted him to do this.
He is not a dream eater, so he runs so confidently!
But while he was escaping, he was familiar with the road and hid in the Solan City Library. The guards at the door didn't even mean to stop them!
The Loken Priest asked the Dream Brigade to wipe out the dream eaters, and in turn some cultists regarded the large library as a shelter...what is this?
In order to find out the tricks and the real magic mirror, Zhu Jue from the Solan City Library must go in.
However, before entering, the preparations that should be made must be missing.
Therefore, during the conversation with Leonard, Zhu Jue handed over to his subordinates two messages he wrote in advance that he wanted them to investigate.
One is the Solan City Grand Library or those priests have any special activities in the near future.
Secondly, there are any rumors about mirrors in the Grand Library of Solan City.
"Tomorrow is the festival of the God of the Okanoz. Legend has it that King Elek Vadda will ride a golden sedan chair every year from his distant country above the Twilight Sea to the temple on the Jade Steps, praying to the God of the Okanoz. At that time, all the priests will go to the temple and chant sing hymns while praying to the gods... This is a custom in Solan City, and it will be held every year!"
The person in charge of the Chamber of Commerce's stronghold bowed halfway and answered the first question with some restraint.
"Elek... is that king, and the distant kingdom above the Twilight Sea is... Forget it, this doesn't matter. Anyway, all the priests will go to the temple on the Jasper Steps tomorrow, right?"
Zhu Jue, who had been in the fantasy dream for less than a week, did not know these folk legends? His subordinates reported a lot of information, and all he could understand was the next paragraph.
Ceremony!
Intuition tells Zhu Jue that the goal of Leonard and his group is this festival!
The Dream Eater is probably also watching this matter. No wonder the Priest Loken and Leonard are so anxious to deal with these people. If such an important event is disturbed by the Dream Eater, there is no need to say much about the bad impact caused by such an important event.
"What about the mirror?"
After returning from the big library, Zhu Jue was thinking about this issue. After thinking about it carefully, he still felt that it was very likely that the Great Elder Atal had concealed some information. The Magic Mirror might just refer to something similar. The latter deliberately did not disclose the real information to test whether Zhu Jue could discover this.
"Sorry, although a considerable number of people have been asked, no information on the rumors about mirrors in the Great Library of Solan City... There is a very strange statement."
"Um?"
"It is rumored that the Great Library has refused to use any glass products since its inception, whether it is windows or vessels, or mirrors on the toiletries. I asked several believers for this, and they also said that they had never seen any glass creation in the Great Library!"
“Reject any glass products…”
Recalling his experience in the afternoon at the Solan City Library, Zhu Jue soon discovered that he had never seen any glass products in his impression. Even in the library, there were marble walls on all sides, and the windows were in the second-floor corridor, which seemed to be wooden windows.
Since this rule has been set since the beginning of construction, and Elder Atal must have been to Solan City before he became the priest of the Usa Temple.
This means that the Great Elder Atal is likely to know about this but still asks Zhu Jue to look for a mirror in a place where there is no mirror.
"Is this the test you gave..."
He took a napkin to wipe off the oil stains from the corner of his mouth, and looked at the big library far outside the window.
Go straight to the Solan City Grand Library.
......
It is not very difficult to sneak into a huge building, let alone a semi-open place like a large library.
Except for the guards guarding the pass, as long as the patrol team is found in the rest of the places, Zhu Jue, who has the help of the scavenger, will naturally be able to enter easily.
The key is how to find what you want!
The rope formed by sand and gravel passed through the canopy under the cover of night and connected to the eaves of a house. Then a figure flew in the air, passing through a courtyard with the force of swaying, and landing on the top of the corridor.
The patrolling guards in the corridor held up the torch and vaguely heard some slight sounds. They looked up and looked at them for a few times, and felt that they were an illusion. They shook their heads and continued to walk forward.
Zhu Jue lay down like a gecko on the top of the arched corridor paved with marble. The surface area that had not been cleaned for a long time had accumulated a lot of fallen leaves and dust, which forced him to lift his head up as much as possible.
I waited until the fire below disappeared at the corner not far away and looked up at the surrounding environment.
The entire Solan City Library is not a single building, but a complex of buildings connected by various corridors and courtyards. Zhu Jue has been to the real library area before. After thinking about some things, Zhu Jue has basically confirmed that there is no magic mirror inside.
After summarizing information from various aspects, Zhu Jue believes that the magic mirror proposed by the Great Elder Atal is likely to be false.
But at the same time, Zhu Jue also believed that the Great Elder Atal would not completely fabricate something, and then let him fumble aimlessly.
That's not called a test, that's called a trick. If you might be pressed to the ground and hammered.
Therefore, if you want to find "Naket's Manuscript", the key is probably still on this "magic mirror".
Zhu Jue comes here tonight and the things you are looking for should be something that can play the same role as the mirror!
Half-squatted on the top of the corridor, the sand line shot out again, pulling himself to the roof of the building next to him.
This is the location Zhu Jue found before he sneaked in, and it is the highest point of the entire large library.
With a bright moon wheel on his head, birds gliding in the night wind flew past nearby. Zhu Jue stood at the corner of the eaves and looked at the magnificent building complex in front of him.
The tips from the Grand Elder Atal were just two sentences. Zhu Jue thought about it and didn't think it was implying that someone or a secret room, so at this time his attention was focused on the inherent buildings inside the large library.
What is the nature of a mirror?
One thing that normal people know is that it can reflect things.
What can achieve the same effect in this area?
Marble wall?
It is impossible, the area is too large. Since Atal uses the magic mirror as a reminder, he is definitely not a ubiquitous existence.
pool?
This is somewhat possible.
I lowered my head and counted it. There were not many pools in the entire building complex, with 7.
Since it is impossible to be sure, Zhu Jue can only use a stupid method.
Checked one by one.
This is not difficult. The process is nothing more than sneaking to the edge of the pool, taking advantage of the patrol team to dive in between, exploring the bottom of the pool with air closed, using perception to detect it, and check if there are mechanisms or other things.
Start with a small pool.
I checked 4 of them one after another, and there was no abnormality in perception.
Until I dived into the 5th medium-sized pool, I came unexpectedly!
Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I find any clues, but that during the search process, Zhu Jue suddenly felt that someone was approaching the pool.
Discovered?
Closely close to the bottom of the pool, the scavenger floated up to the side to check the situation.
"Shana, I want to be with you all the time. Every minute and every second I leave you is a hell of suffering for me!"
As soon as the scavenger reached out of the water, he sent back a confession that he almost didn't suffocate to death.
But the name Shanna sounds familiar.
The heroine of the gossip mentioned in the conversation between the two young men I heard while resting outside the big library this afternoon?
"Grevdo, I...I love you too, the moon can witness my friendship with you!"
The woman's response was also straightforward.
Zhu Jue, who suddenly felt very full under the water, began to think about whether to go out and knock them out.
"Really, I'm so happy, Shana, I have a surprise for you."
"What...ah, you're so bad!"
"Hehe, there are even worse ones."
"No, it's not here, the patrol team is coming soon."
"Then we go to the place last time, I know that the spire there will shine at such nights, and even the appearance of people can be reflected. Then we will be there..."
Grevdo grinned and said anxiously.
"You're such a bad boy."
Shana patted the man on the shoulder, but there was no word of rejection in her mouth.
"How could you say that to him? In my opinion, he is a good man!"
Each of his hands put on their shoulders. The low voice was particularly cold in this environment. He turned Grevdo toward him and continued,
Chapter completed!
