The battle between the knights that took place between the Imperial Academy of Spiritual Knowledge and the Imperial Capital Royal Library is not described for the time being because Ian was not big-hearted enough to run over and watch foolishly.

In short, Count Phoenix relied on his extremely rich fighting experience to successfully lead the Book Keeper Knights into the office of Section Chief Idur Marcus in a lightning raid, and beat up the confused Section Chief Idur. He was kidnapped, stripped naked, and hung at the front door of the library, attracting a crowd of nobles to watch.

Ordinary people, you say?

Ordinary people are not interested in mixing this up.

However, it was quite lively. The police whistle was not stopped throughout the whole first floor area most of the night. Even ordinary people discussed what happened with great interest. The sales volume of drinks that night increased by 110% compared to the past.

After being briefly at a loss for what to do, the Lingzhiyuan that was raided also tried to gather strength to snatch back its section chief - they had more manpower than Earl Phoenix, but the old Earl and the book-protecting knights under his command executed the task superbly. Encirclement and reinforcements were encircled, and finally after defeating the fourth batch of special operations teams of the Academy of Spiritual Knowledge, they negotiated with the director of the Academy, Moser Harnak, known as the "Knower".

After a full exchange of views, the two parties each had reservations. Earl Phoenix regretted the attitude of the Lingzhiyuan and repeatedly stated that he would not be able to do anything until Section Chief Yiduer handed over the items stolen by him or transferred under his supervision. In front of this unique treasure, he himself will always be hung at the door of the Imperial Capital Library as a warning to book thieves.

Minister Moser respects Count Phoenix's views, but expresses great indignation at Count Phoenix's hasty and reckless actions. He believes that there is something to talk about and there is no need to take action. If everyone is like Count Phoenix, there will be no peace in the imperial capital. Today, everyone should bring their own knights to fight the civil war.

Count Phoenix responded to this remark, claiming that Minister Moser had simply 'squeezed the belly bag of a bug - it's so hard to fart', and that if the book is not returned, there will be a civil war.

The Book Guard Knights have built solid fortifications on the streets of the first-level district, guarding all key street entrances leading to the Great Library. The Gnostic Academy, which wants to save people, keeps trying to break through, but always fails - -They are indeed good at covert work, but they are still very secretive in the Imperial Capital. If they can operate covertly in the Imperial Capital, why would they need the Mirror Sea Guards and the Inspector Knights?

This incident lasted until noon the next day. After learning what had happened, the eldest prince, Carlos Sertal, made an important speech: "What's there to fight about? Did Section Chief Yidur steal the book? He stole it." Just return it and then fire him. The two old men need to calm down."

The second prince Mikael Sertal, who also attended the Gushan Conference in the imperial capital, also made a supplementary speech: "I think this is actually a small matter. Everyone has a love for books. The question is whether this is gnosis." Is it the behavior of the hospital or the personal behavior of Section Chief Yiduer? Or is it an act of espionage by another country? Everyone needs to find out what happened first."

Under the guidance of the important opinions of the two powerful princes, the Lingzhiyuan and the Imperial Capital Library held a frank and efficient conversation in the upper city.

The end result is very simple: Chief Yiduer Marcus is actually a spy of Feiyandi. He used the name of Lingzhiyuan to trick Deputy Director Dranke into transferring precious orphans from the Imperial Capital Library and took these The transfer of all the precious classics to the Flying Flame Land is an irrefutable act of betrayal and treason. From now on, Section Chief Yidur will be deprived of all positions, his title of nobility will be revoked, and his status as a sublimated person will be revoked. He will also be subjected to extreme forms at the end of autumn. To clarify the canon.

Of course, that afternoon, the hateful traitor Yi Duer was frightened to death by his own future. This was just a trivial matter.

All in all, the person who stole the books was found, the place of transfer was known, the stolen books could not be found, and the conflict between the Academy of Spiritual Knowledge and the Imperial Capital Library was also resolved - Minister Moser told Earl Phoenix and all the big libraries The staff apologized, saying that because they did not know people well and treated their subordinates too harshly, Section Chief Yiduer acted so irrationally and committed treason for mere money, so he was declared a staff member of the Imperial Capital Grand Library. All the staff of Lingzhi Institute were given an astonishing 'suppression fee'.

But this is not alarming, because Earl Phoenix announced that as long as the library's books are not recovered for one day, he will beat a member of the Lingzhi Institute's deputy director or above once he sees him. If he is not beaten to death, he will pay for medical expenses. If he is beaten to death, he will be Pay funeral expenses - it's just your bad luck that killed him. He had no intention of talking about human rights with the book thief's accomplices.

The imperial capital became lively. The last time it was so lively was the large-scale duel between the younger generation of the Ed family and the Adelaide family more than 20 years ago.

Unconsciously, three days have passed since the incident.

"They're all farting."

When Isengard excitedly ran into Ian and his experimental building and asked the white-haired boy who was doing alchemy experiments for his opinion, Ian commented: "You bastard spy, if you ask me, this is actually gnosis." The Academy and Justice Thorin are jointly conducting experiments, which happens to require the use of special spiritual powers found in some unique classics."

"I was at the scene, and I can tell that the stolen books contained some very special psychic powers or special inherited powers. It was not an accident that they were stolen."

Earl Phoenix has a very strict mouth. Ian does not exist in this incident at all. Of course, even if he does exist, it does not matter. Isengard does not even know that Ian is the real trigger of this incident.

At this moment, while controlling the alchemy equipment, he explained to Isengard: "There is probably an agreement between Archduke Thorin and the Flying Flame Land, so he added some additional lists of classics - books that the Academy of Gnosis actually used for experiments. It is estimated that it is only part of it, and a small part is due to the needs of Feiyandi or Archduke Thorin."

He didn't say anything shocking like 'Grand Duke Thorin has fully surrendered to the Flying Fire Land and will rebel and become independent within two years and establish the Grand Duchy of Thorin like Junling Castle', but the meaning is actually similar.

After all, for the Imperial people, cooperating with Feiyandi is a very serious accusation in itself.

"It's actually like this..."

But Isengard did not doubt Ian's words at all, and he nodded suddenly: "Uncle Carlos told me that this time the matter was more serious than I thought, and it was not just a matter of the Gnosis Institute becoming more and more unscrupulous with His Majesty's help. I didn't quite understand it at first, but now that you say it, I probably understand..."

"of course."

Ian nodded slightly. After he caused the fire, it seems that the higher-ups in the empire also discovered that something was wrong with Archduke Thorin.

As a result, part of the future that can be seen on the way to the insect nest is expected to change.

And through Isengard, a relative of the royal family, Ian also knew that the eldest princess Alegria was now near the great desert.

It seemed that she was the one who presided over the independent incident of the Feiyan Land Fortress Group.

In addition, the personnel of the Dragon Worship Sect in the Imperial Capital also knew that the Book of Silver Glory had been transferred out of the Imperial Capital's Great Library and might now be with the Grand Duke of the Western Region. Instead, these people showed soothing expressions.

They can't afford to offend the empire, so why can't Archduke Thorin still mess with it?

After thanking Ian repeatedly, these people left the imperial capital and gave Ian a three-story building at the Dragon Worship Sect's stronghold in the imperial capital.

——Without spending a penny, the Dragon Worship Cult cured Ian's mental insufficiency caused by not having an independent home.

Well, Ian will not live there. The reason is of course not that the house in Isengard is much better than the poorly decorated small building, but that he has not yet planned to reveal his identity as a Dragon Cult.

Although theoretically speaking, both the Marquis of Baton and Deputy Commander Frost Trace knew it, not to mention Mikael and Mrs. Ellen... If these big shots knew it, other people's opinions didn't matter, but he still Don't want to be exposed.

There are as many layers as the vest can have. The white-haired boy knew very well that these contained various secret identities, and these were the most fundamental things to ensure his safety.

All in all, time passed like this.

The world is spinning, and it does not stop just because Ian is concentrating on researching alchemical inscription literature.

It is now September 15, Terra 773.
