Chapter 362 The Book of Revelation
Chapter 362 The Book of Revelation
Shannotira stopped in front of a shallow pond, pulled out a key-like object from her bosom, and gently stroked the water surface.
Faint ripples spread across the water surface, and as the ripples spread to the entire lake, the original lake bottom disappeared, replaced by a bottomless passage.
"Follow me, this is the entrance to the library."
Sianotila jumped into the water first, followed closely by Hines and the other two.
The water journey was not far, and soon the group returned to shore. Hines waved his hand to wipe off the water stains on the people and threw them back into the lake.
Hines looked around casually. Compared to what Sianotilla said about the library, it would be more appropriate to say that this place is a study.
"Scianottila, where did you get the key to the library?"
"This isn't a key. It's a token I was born with. Of all the Melusins, only my token can open the entrance."
Shannotila took out her key-shaped token and shook it slightly. Although her tone was very flat, it was still obvious that she had a faint pride in the special nature of her token.
While Hines was looking around, Ying was not idle either. She went straight to the most conspicuous book in the center of the library.
"Is this the book you were talking about?"
Xia Nuotila nodded and walked to Ying's side, her big eyes full of expectation.
"Yeah, can you understand?"
Ying didn't answer immediately, but continued to stare at the incomprehensible book. The chaotic words seemed to be rearranging themselves before her eyes, and the surrounding scenery seemed to be distorting and changing...
At the same time, a strange voice appeared in Ying's mind.
"I see. This is a world where even sweet flowers and mint can't grow. Can you see the end of this world?"
Ying suddenly woke up from her concentration and looked around for the source of the sound, but there were only four of them in the room and no other suspicious people, so the sound could only come from this book?
Ying frowned and continued to look at the strange book, but the slight feeling of fatigue coming from her brain made it impossible for her to concentrate again for a while.
Paimon looked at Ying and asked cautiously,
"Ying, what's wrong with you?"
Ying pressed her forehead and shook it slightly, briefly describing what had just happened.
"Nothing, it's just that I seem to have gone to a strange place, and there's a strange voice talking about the end of the world..."
As Ying recounted her recent experience, Hines also tried to observe the book. Concentration seemed to be the threshold to reading this strange book.
A moment later, the exact same thing happened to Hinesh, except...
Hines frowned as he looked at the scene around him. What he saw was not the end of the world.
In fact, it was exactly the opposite of the doomsday Ying had described. Rays of sunlight filtered through the tall trees, and from time to time, birds would stop on the branches and tilt their heads to look at him, the outsider. From time to time, the barking of two distant dogs could be heard in the peaceful atmosphere.
"So it's really because of the abyss?"
Hines murmured to himself, recalling that the space in Melusin's eyes seemed to be a similar scene, only Ying and Paimon saw the end of the world.
Before Hines could think about it, the golden sunlight gradually dimmed, the birds' singing gradually faded away, and when he came to his senses, he had already returned to the library.
"Hines! Why are you ignoring me?"
Paimon pinched his waist angrily and stared at the bewildered Hines.
Ying rolled her eyes speechlessly.
"Didn't I tell you that Hines is also reading."
"Who knows if he's just pretending to read? He'd have to treat me to a nice meal to make me believe him!"
"The latter is your purpose!"
Hines pressed his forehead and rubbed it gently, thinking to himself, could it be that the bird song I just heard...
No, the bird calls should be the voices of Ying and Shannotila, and the dog barking is the voice of Paimon!
Sianotila also looked at Xines with curiosity.
"Did you see anything?"
Hines didn't think there was any need to hide what had just happened, so he told them directly.
"I just saw a strange place..."
Ying folded her arms, looking as if to say, "See, I didn't lie," but unfortunately, what Shines said next was a little different from what she expected.
It cannot be said that they are completely unrelated, but only that they go in opposite directions.
"...it was a quiet and peaceful space..."
After listening to Xines's description, Paimon's eyes kept scanning back and forth between Xines and Ying.
"I know! One of you two must be lying! Now, whoever promises to treat me to a good meal, I will admit that they are telling the truth!"
Boom! *2
Paimon:╥﹏╥
Paimon covered his battered head with his hands and cried silently.
It hurts so much! Why did two people attack at the same time? Wouldn't it be better if they just hit me once?
Xines naturally knew the reason for this, but Ying was different. She propped her chin up in thought, then turned her gaze to Shannottila.
"Scianottila, what do you see?"
“I don’t understand!”
Ying slapped her forehead. Yes, Shannotila asked them to come here just to ask them to help with reading.
However, Shannotila had not made no progress for such a long time. At least she knew that the book was called the Book of Revelation and it was now in a damaged state. She also found several places in the book where the remaining pages of the Book of Revelation might be hidden.
"No problem, leave the task of finding the pages to us!"
Ying agreed with great interest. After all, she was also surprised that the same space appeared differently in the eyes of two people.
Hines shrugged.
"I'm here to take you back. I don't have any other work right now, so let's go together."
After saying that, Hines picked up Paimon, who was squatting on the side and sulking, and headed towards the first page of the book that Shannotira mentioned.
"Hey! Be polite to girls... Gurgle Gurgle..."
After a moment, Ying looked at Paimeng who was coughing up water with twitching mouth corners. Is this guy stupid?
How dare you breathe freely in the water like you do on land?
Hines patted Paimon's back helplessly. He really didn't expect that Paimon would choke underwater.
So how did Ying hook her in the first place? Did she really faint from choking on the water? He had always thought that Paimon had seen Ying fishing and deliberately dived underwater to take the bait.
The first location was near Haimo Village. When the three arrived, they saw another group of red minerals.
After receiving Hines's promise of a big meal, Paimon generously said that a noble man should not bear grudges and that he would forgive Hines this time.
"So, where are the pages?"
Paimon looked at the numerous ores and asked soul-searching questions, while Hines and Ying said nothing and just kept mining.
