Diary of the Death Wizard

Chapter 178 Gift of Knowledge

It's no use complaining to these corpses.

Sol did not violate the prohibition, and these corpses could not harm him, but if Sol violated the prohibition, these corpses would not let him go.

After working on the corpse until midnight, Sol went to report to Katz early the next morning.

Sol briefly skipped over the matter of private transactions, and only mentioned that after he accidentally opened two doors, the senior beside him was caught by arms like noodles, and he still hasn't come out yet.

Sure enough, Mentor Katz didn't ask about the details of what happened, but just said lightly, "Got it."

Two days later, Sol came to the library on the tenth floor of the East Tower with the two books he had borrowed related to evil spirits.

Of the two books he was looking for, only the first one recorded a story related to the nightmare butterfly. The relevant information is still ambiguous. Apart from getting the two cognitions that the nightmare butterfly is scary and can blur people's cognition, and can be captured, Sol has almost no other gains.

Moreover, the identity of the last third narrator in the story is also very suspicious. I don't know who he is.

Is it a third party who watched the tragedy happen...or that nightmare butterfly?

Because there are no other clues, Thor can only temporarily strengthen the seal on the nightmare butterfly cocoon, and dare not continue to carry out research.

I'm afraid that one day this cocoon will come back into his eyes again.

After he solved his physical problems, it would not be too late to invite Diary to study the cocoon of the nightmare butterfly.

Back to the present, Saul stepped into the library.

It is very lively here today, and many apprentices are wandering among the bookshelves in the front row.

It was still the arrogant young administrator who was in charge of the registration.

Sol walked over directly, "Hello, Master Administrator, I'm here to return these two books."

The young man turned his head with his mouth curled up. When he saw Sol, his expression changed and he seemed a little nervous, "Oh, just give me the book."

Hearing the young man's words, Sol was a little surprised. In the past, when they returned books, they all registered with the administrator and put them back in their original place.

If it is not put back in place, the administrator will severely increase the price the next time the apprentice borrows the book.

That price is definitely a blood lesson for any apprentice.

But today... why is the process different?

Sol didn't understand why the young administrator was a little abnormal today, but with so many apprentices around him, he obediently handed over the book in his hand.

In this regard, he has always been very obedient.

"Do you still want to borrow books today?" Unexpectedly, after receiving the book, the young man was stunned for a while, and just when Sol was about to leave, he suddenly called to him.

Sol originally had no plan to borrow books, but it was rare for the other party to ask him so enthusiastically and politely, so he still answered cautiously, "I haven't had many magic crystals lately."

Although he had just made five hundred—after all, the candle did end up in Ferguson's hands, so this unexpected deal was still considered a success.

But money is never enough to spend, and prices are rising simultaneously with the improvement of strength.

It is said that the value of experimental materials commonly used by official wizards is astronomical, so they generally do not buy materials, and often make them by themselves.

"Ahem, recently there are some defaced soul books to deal with. I remember that you are very interested in books in this area. Do you want to consider taking over?"

"Can you buy books in the library?" Thorton suddenly became interested.

Because in the wizarding world, the unknown is usually dangerous, so places like the library are actually very unsafe.

If all the books were opened to the public normally, nine out of ten apprentices in the wizard's tower might go crazy.

But if he could buy books at a low price, Saul would still be willing to take risks for useful knowledge.

After all, before he opened the cover of the book, he could determine whether the book was dangerous to him.

"Yes, because it is a damaged and dirty book, we will sell it to suitable apprentices at a low price after we confirm that there is no pollution."

Sol still felt a little strange, "But I've been in the Wizard's Tower for two years, and I haven't heard of it..."

"Do you think tidying up the library is easy? It would be nice to tidy up once every two years." The young man's eyes widened, as if he was about to get angry.

Seeing that the young man returned to his former irritability, Saul felt a little relieved.

"Then please show me."

The young man raised his chin, "Go to the bookshelf in the first row and the eighth row, there are all books ready to be disposed of."

Sol looked around and found nothing unusual, and then peeked at the diary on his shoulder, but there was no change, so he walked towards the first row of bookshelves.

"This is the eighth row."

Saul walked to the destination and found that there was no one around.

"I will only recommend it to the right people, so not many people know the news, right?" Saul said to himself and approached the bookshelf.

There are only a small number of books on this bookshelf, which are arranged in a mess.

These books are basically relatively low-level books, without any protective seals on them, and Sol can clearly see the covers of all the books at a glance.

There is actually a book in it that Sol once borrowed when he was a first-level student.

He turned to several other books, and sure enough, two of them were related to the soul.

Just as Sol was about to step forward to take a closer look, a figure suddenly appeared beside the bookshelf in front of Sol.

It was the elderly administrator.

With his hands behind his back, he walked past the two books Saul was looking at.

"The two books "Empty Book" and "Teaching You to Hide in the Gap", one is missing the second half, and the middle part of the other is stained and cannot be repaired. Although the content cannot be repaired, it can also provide some scattered knowledge."

The elderly administrator turned around slowly with his hands behind his back, with a smile on his face.

"A book costs 300 magic crystals or 29 credits. If you want all of them, you can get 560 magic crystals or 54 credits."

Is there a discount for buying more?

Saul stepped forward, "Can I see what's inside?"

In the past, borrowing books in the library could also read the first few pages.

Unexpectedly, the old man shook his head.

"No! Dealing with books does not support inspection. Buy it if you want it, and put it down if you don't want it."

This is somewhat unreasonable.

Whether it is credits or magic crystals, it is not a small amount for Saul.

Sol was a little embarrassed.

But these two books attracted him just by their names.

Especially the second book, it always reminds Sol of those dark shadows that run around and hide in the gaps between the stone bricks every time the tower master appears.

"I want them all, pay with credits!" Saul was cruel, and he took them all with one bite.

He doesn't have many magic crystals in his hand, but he still has some credits. Senior Wright cashed in the IOU as soon as he returned to the Wizard Tower. So Sol has saved more than a hundred credits a few days ago.

It's just that these days are experiments and borrowing books, and the assets quickly dropped to less than one hundred.

If he buys these two books again this time, his credits will drop to thirty.

But for wizards, knowledge is fundamental, so Sol insisted on buying these two books even though his flesh hurt.

Others who buy such incomplete books may worry that they will embark on the wrong research path due to lack of key knowledge.

But Thor has the death wizard diary, and he can correct his mistakes at any time. The worst result is that he can't find the right path, so that he won't become obsessed and die because of a wrong understanding.

Hearing Sol's choice, the old manager's smile deepened.

"Okay, then take these two books and go to checkout."

After finishing speaking, the figure of the old man disappeared abruptly, and only the lingering sound echoed in Sol's ear.

"Is it really here to promote? Do they get a commission for selling books?"

Sol didn't know why, so he stepped forward and took two books.

Sudden!

A hand covered in pink bandages pulled out the "Ethereal Book" from Thor's hand.

Sol looked up and saw the tower master who was hidden in a brown-red cloak.

"Tower master?"

Gorza held the spine of the book and raised it to his eyes for a few moments, then let out a soft hum with unknown meaning, and then casually threw the "Empty Book" back on the bookshelf.

The book, which was less than one centimeter thin, fell heavily on the bookshelf, making a "bang", and even the horizontal partition of the bookshelf shook twice.

As if what fell on it was not a book, but a person.

Going home, the second today is more likely to be in the evening.

Try to write something on the train~

In addition, if you ask for a monthly pass, there is still a difference of more than 170 to 1,000. It may be too late, but try your best!
