Indescribable cyberpunk

The last rays of the setting sun disappeared into the distant horizon.

The lights in Solan City are still bright.

In the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce, Leonard and his group had left, leaving only Zhu Jue sitting in the room on the second floor enjoying a sumptuous dinner.

Several employees of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce stood beside the table, waiting to be summoned.

"President, Mr. Leonard and his companions chose to stay at the Flower Hotel two blocks away. Our people asked the hotel owner and they only booked a room for one night!"

"Only one night to eliminate those dream eaters is the condition of the deal with Priest Loken. Before, Leonard clearly mentioned that the task must be completed before tomorrow.

No, this means that their last action should be tonight or tomorrow. It seems that my previous speculation is correct. "

Leonard and others did not stay in the hotel of the Chamber of Commerce after bandaging their wounds at the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce. Even though Zhu Jue took the initiative to invite them, the former still chose to leave.

This clearly shows that there are things that he wants to hide from Zhu Jue, or that he is worried that he will suddenly ask about the purpose of the Dreamland Troupe's trip, and he will definitely not be able to tell them when the time comes. If he categorically refuses, the "feelings" that the two parties have finally cultivated will not be warmed up yet. Being cold doesn't seem to be a good idea either.

Just stay out of sight, out of mind, and leave first as a sign of respect.

Distance creates beauty.

"Did you find any information on the note I gave you before?"

He turned his attention to the other person and asked.

When he was chasing the cultist in the Garden Water Corridor in the afternoon, he saw him running into the Solan City Great Library. Zhu Jue felt that something was wrong. You must know that the Dream Eater did not even frown during the battle, even if he performed a fatal self-sacrifice. For a moment, however, this guy had no intention of joining the war from the beginning to the end, and even chose to escape in the end.

There was only one reason for him to do this.

He is not a Dream Eater, so he can run so confidently!

But during the escape process, he actually hid in the Solan City Great Library with ease, and the guard at the door didn't even mean to stop him!

Priest Loken asked the Dream Troupe to exterminate the Dream Eaters, but on the other hand, there were cultists who used the Great Library as a sanctuary. What does this mean?

In order to find out what was going on and what the real magic mirror was, Zhu Jue had to go inside the Solan City Great Library.

But before going in, you must be prepared.

Therefore, during the conversation with Leonard, the note Zhu Jue handed to his subordinates contained two pieces of information that he had written in advance for them to investigate.

First, the Solan City Great Library or the priests have any special activities recently.

Secondly, there are any rumors related to mirrors in the Solan City Great Library.

"Tomorrow is the festival of the god of the Okanoz River. Legend has it that King Elekwarda rides in a golden sedan chair every year from his distant country above the Twilight Sea to the temple on the jasper steps to pay homage to When the God of the Okanoz River prays, all the priests will go to the temple and sing hymns while praying to the gods. This has always been a custom in Solan City and is held every year!"

The person in charge of the Chamber of Commerce's stronghold bowed slightly and answered the first question with some restraint.

"Elek is the king. Forget about the distant country above the Twilight Sea. It's not important. Anyway, all the priests will go to the temple on the jasper steps tomorrow, right?"

Zhu Jue, who had fully expected to enter the dreamland for less than a week, didn't know these folklore legends. His subordinates reported a lot of information, and the only thing he could understand was the following paragraph.

Festival!

Intuition told Zhu Jue that the goal of Leonard and his team was this festival!

The Dream Eaters are probably also watching this matter. No wonder Priest Loken and Leonard are so anxious to get rid of these people. If such an important event is interrupted by the Dream Eaters, it goes without saying that it will have a bad impact.

"What about the mirror?"

Zhu Jue was thinking about this issue after coming back from the big library. After thinking about it carefully, he still felt that it was very likely that Elder Atal had concealed some information. The magic mirror might just refer to something similar. The latter The purpose of deliberately not revealing the true information was to test whether Zhu Jue could discover this.

"I'm sorry. Although I've asked quite a few people, I haven't collected any information about the rumors about the mirror in Solan City's Great Library. There is a very strange statement."

"Um?"

"It is rumored that the Great Library has refused to use any glass products from the beginning, whether it is windows, utensils, or ordinary mirrors on the washstand. I asked several believers to confirm this, and they also said that they have never used any glass in the Great Library. See anything made of glass in the library!”

"Reject any glass."

Recalling his experience in the Solan City Grand Library in the afternoon, Zhu Jue soon discovered that he had never seen any glass products in his memory. Even in the library, there were marble walls and windows on all sides. In the second-floor corridor, there appear to be wooden windows as well.

Since this rule has been set since the beginning of construction, and the Great Elder Atal must have been to Solan City before he became the priest of Uzza Temple.

This means that Elder Atal probably knew about this but still asked Zhu Jue to find a mirror in a place where no mirror existed.

"Is this the test you gave me?"

Taking a napkin to wipe the oil stains from the corners of his mouth, Zhu Jue looked out the window at the large library in the distance.

Go straight to the Solan City Great Library.

It is not that difficult to sneak into a large building, let alone a semi-open place like the Great Library.

Except for the gates guarded by guards, Zhu Jue can easily enter other places with the help of scavengers as long as he finds gaps between patrol teams.

The key is how to find what you want!

The rope characters formed by the gravel passed through the tree canopy under the cover of night and connected to the eaves of a house. Then a figure flew in the air, passed through a courtyard with the force of swing, and landed on the top of the corridor. .

The guard patrolling in the corridor held a torch and heard some faint noises. He looked up for a few times, then thought it was an illusion, shook his head and continued walking forward.

Zhu Jue was lying on the top of the marble-paved arched corridor like a gecko. The surface 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.

He waited until the firelight below disappeared around the corner not far away before he raised his head and looked at the surrounding environment.

The entire Solan City Great 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, and after thinking about some things, Zhu Jue basically It has been confirmed that there is indeed no magic mirror inside.

After summarizing information from all aspects, Zhu Jue believed that the magic mirror proposed by Elder Atal was probably false.

But at the same time, Zhu Jue also believed that Great Elder Atal would not completely make something up and then let him explore aimlessly.

That's not called a test, that's called teasing. If you don't succeed, you'll be pushed to the ground and beaten.

Therefore, if you want to find the "Nakter Codex", the key is probably still in this "magic mirror".

When Zhu Jue comes here tonight, he should be looking for something that can play the same role as a mirror!

Half-crouching on the top of the corridor, the sand line shot out again, pulling him up to the roof of the building next to him.

This is the location Zhu Jue found before sneaking in. It is the highest point in the entire library.

With the bright moon above his head, birds gliding on the night wind were passing by nearby. Zhu Jue stood at the corner of the eaves, surveying the majestic buildings in front of him.

Grand Elder Atal's reminder was only two sentences in total. After much thought, Zhu Jue didn't think it was hinting at a certain person or a secret room, so at this time, his attention was focused on the inherent architecture inside the big library. .

What are the properties of mirrors?

One thing that normal people know is that things can be reflected.

Is there anything in this area that can achieve the same effect?

Marble walls?

Impossible, the area is too vast. Since Atal used the magic mirror as a reminder, it must not be an existence that can be seen everywhere.

pool?

This is somewhat possible.

I lowered my head and counted around. There were not many pools in the entire complex, 7.

Unable to determine, Zhu Jue could only use stupid methods.

Check them one by one.

The difficulty of doing this is not high. The process is nothing more than sneaking to the edge of the pool, taking advantage of the gap between the patrol team to go back and forth, holding your breath and groping around the bottom of the pool, and using your senses to detect it to see if there is any trap. existence of the class.

Start with a small pool.

I checked 4 of them one after another and found nothing abnormal.

It wasn't until I dived into the fifth medium-sized pool that an unexpected surprise occurred!

Don't get me wrong, it wasn't that he found any clues, but that Zhu Jue suddenly sensed someone approaching the pool during the search.

Discovered?

Sticking to the bottom of the pool, the scavenger floated up to the side to check the situation.

"Shana, I want to be with you forever. Every minute I am away from you is hellish suffering for me!"

As soon as the scavenger came out of the water, a disgusting confession came back that almost made Zhu sleep.

But the name Shana sounds familiar.

The heroine of the gossip mentioned in the conversation between the two young men we overheard while taking a break outside the Great Library this afternoon?

"Grefdo, I. I love you too, and the moon can bear witness to my friendship for you!"

The woman's response was equally 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 is it? You are so bad!"

"Hey, there's something worse."

"No, not here, the patrol will be here soon."

"Then let's go to the last place. I know that the spire there will glow at night like this, and even the appearance of people can be reflected. We will be there then."

Grefdo grinned and said anxiously.

"You are such a bad boy."

Shana slapped the man on the shoulder, but there was no word of rejection in her mouth.

"How can you say that about him? In my opinion, he is a good man!"

A pair of hands put their shoulders on each other's shoulders, and the low voice was particularly cold in this environment. He pushed Grefdo towards him and continued,

"I'm very interested in the place you just mentioned. How about taking me there?"
