Start with Island Lord

The latest number of books in the Robert Family Library is 23,127.

The books are all excellent.

This number is marked on the Orkin plaque on the library door as an honor to the Robert family.

Passing by this exquisite dark blue nameplate, Rosen subconsciously stopped and stared.

Mrs. Agnet did not urge him, but stood beside him and waited patiently.

Rosen said softly: "Books are condensed souls, witnesses of historical inheritance, and guardians of mortal wisdom."

Mrs. Agnet softly continued the next sentence: "Every book shines with the brilliance of divinity, which is the most essential difference between us mortals and wild birds, beasts, fish and insects."

After finishing speaking, the master and apprentice looked at each other with smiles on their faces.

"Teacher, this is what you said to me when you took the first class."

"This is not what I said, it was Saint Weilan who said it."

"But in my heart, that's what the instructor said."

"My mouth is so sweet, but I am not Grant, and I will not be easily dazzled by sweet words."

While talking and laughing, the two entered the library.

The museum is spacious, tall and bright, with rows of thick yet exquisite black teak bookshelves neatly arranged, like silent giants guarding knowledge.

The bookshelf is also sealed with good transparent glass to prevent dust, moisture and insects from damaging the books.

If an outsider enters and wants to read a book, he must specifically notify the librarian, who will take out the same special spell key.

Of course, the situation today was a bit special. The librarian wanted to come forward to serve, but was waved away by Mrs. Agnet.

"I am far more familiar with this library than you are, so you can go about your business."

"Yes, Princess." The administrator respectfully stepped back.

This detail made Rosen's heart move slightly: 'The instructor seems to have something to say to me alone. ’

He was a little curious, but he knew he would know the answer soon, so he just had to wait patiently.

Then, as Rosen followed Mrs. Agnet as she wandered among the rows of bookshelves, he too whispered his true needs.

"Teacher, I not only want to know the knowledge of the fish-men, but also the knowledge of the deep-sea banshee, and my need for the latter is even more urgent."

Mrs. Agnet was startled: "Why, the deep sea succubus was found in the sea?"

"I haven't really seen it yet, but I have found some suspicious traces."

"You know, the deep-sea banshee in ancient mythology is a powerful character."

"You're right."

Mrs. Agnet put one hand on the bookshelf and held the braids hanging down her cheeks with the other. After thinking carefully, she waved to Rosen: "Follow me."

She turned around and walked toward the depths of the library. Through the glass, she could see that the books in the library were getting older, and naturally the longer time had traveled.

Therefore, what Mrs. Agnet is about to display should be a real ancient classic, perhaps the only one in the entire continent.

Rosen was suddenly very much looking forward to it.

Soon, the two arrived at a row of old bookshelves.

The nameplate hanging on the bookshelf reads "A Collection of Historical Shire County Coast Observation Logs and Navigation Logs of Surrounding Seas".

Looking inside the bookshelf, there are stacks of books that resemble observation records. There are more than a thousand books. From the color of the books, it can be seen that this thing was written down along the way.

Considering the history of the Shire, the first diary should be 488 years old.

Rosen was overjoyed, because this collection of logs is the most precious, almost a true historical reproduction.

"These are the most authentic first-hand information. I loved reading these logs when I was a child, and I vaguely remember that there was information about the deep-sea banshee in them."

While talking, Mrs. Agnet brought two pairs of silk gloves: "Put them on."

Then he explained: "These are all ancient books. It is strictly forbidden to use the hands of the mage, and the movements must be as gentle as possible."

Rosen did as he was told, but he was a little confused: "Tutor, these are precious historical materials, why don't you find someone to copy them again using the best paper available?"

Mrs. Agnet shrugged helplessly: "That's what I suggested to the count, but obviously he didn't listen to me."

"Of course, I can understand him. After all, the cost of doing this is very high, and re-copying will not produce obvious economic value."

‘Wow~’

She gently opened the glass bookcase: "Move the standing table over there. After you get the book, read it here and return immediately after reading it."

"Yes, mentor."

Rosen moved a tall square table from the side wall, while Mrs. Agnet carefully took out five books, placed them on the table, and began to read carefully.

"I should look for it among these five books."

She began to rummage carefully, while Rosen stood aside and waited patiently.

‘Wow~Wow~~’

For a moment, the only sound left in the library was the slight sound of turning pages and the thin breathing of two people.

About half an hour later, Mrs. Agnet waved to Rosen: "I found it. It's the logbook of an adventurous captain 362 years ago. Come and take a look."

Rosen was overjoyed and immediately approached his instructor and read it carefully.

On the old and yellowed pages, the past that has been dusted by time is written in very beautiful Berlanti noble handwriting.

This is the logbook of a noble captain named Alan Carter.

Rosen knew him. He was a very adventurous captain.

Because it was he who first discovered Paddlefish Island while exploring the waters east of Shire County, and it was he who later discovered Hank Island and St. Ann's Island.

The log says:

‘On July 27, 1322 in the natural calendar, there was a fierce north wind, the clouds in the sky were thicker than mountains and blacker than black rocks, and a fierce storm was brewing. ’

'We just experienced a terrible murloc attack. There was a big hole in the hull and serious water leakage. Seven crew members died in the battle. I saw with my own eyes a murloc bit off the neck of a crew member, and the screams were as hoarse as sharp knives. It tortures my soul as well. ’

'The ship is sinking slowly, and it may not be able to survive. Everyone on the ship is in despair. Although they are trying their best to repair the hull, we have all heard the call of Mother Nature. ’

'Yes, I did hear someone singing, and then I saw something in the sky. ’

‘There were actually women with wings and naked bodies. They are extremely beautiful, with dark blue feathers and crystal clear skin. ’

‘They also fly very fast, definitely no slower than the falconer’s eagle. ’

‘I counted about thirteen women. They flew about a hundred meters high, flying above our deck and circling around us. ’

'My first mate wanted the sailors to shoot arrows at them, but I stopped them. ’

'I figured since these flying women were singing instead of attacking us, we didn't need to get into any new trouble, we were in enough trouble already. ’

'Perhaps because of our kindness, the women gradually lowered their height, began to fall on the sail mast, and finally even reached the deck. ’

'After they landed, their bodies changed rapidly. Their wings turned into white arms, dark blue feathers turned into dark blue hair, and their eyes showed a dreamy blue light. ’

'In short, they look no different from normal women. No, it should be said that they are as beautiful as fairies. ’

‘The sailors were stunned, and even the cruel first mate lost his murderous intent. This is the first time in my life that I have seen so many beautiful women. ’

'And what happened next was beyond every one of our expectations. ’

‘As a responsible professional captain, I will record every detail in detail. Maybe these details will make you think I am unethical, but I insist that they are necessary. ’

‘Because the truth is the first element of a logbook. ’

After seeing this sentence, Rosen felt something bad.

He continued to look down, and sure enough he found that the captain actually wrote about Uncle Huang in the rigorous logbook!

Piece by piece, the details are rich, the characters are vivid, and they are even quite literary!

But I have to admit that the diary records vividly and concretely show the characteristics of the blue-haired woman in the deep sea, which is of great research value.

As he was reading, Rosen heard the breathing around him become thicker. When he turned around, he saw Mrs. Agnet's cheeks were flushed.

Seeing Rosen looking over, she complained unnaturally: "This captain is really a romantic maniac!"

"indeed."

Rosen agreed and continued reading.

Fortunately, the immoral part didn't last forever.

‘These flying women can talk and their voices are very sweet. ’

'They told me that if we came with good intentions, they would give us a warm welcome, but if we came with bad intentions, they would make us pay dearly. ’

'We agree with this, because in the ocean, these women are the masters. ’

‘During the conversation, I also learned that the women had a very powerful leader named ‘Laertelis’. They called her their queen and said that the queen had the great power to overturn all the ships in the continent. ’

'The enthusiastic women flew away. After a rest, we regained our energy a little and started repairing the ship. But as soon as we plugged the holes in the ship, the women came again! ’

‘I feel like I’m starting to hate them. Although they brought a lot of pearls, seaweed and delicious sea fish, they are not satisfied. As long as we regain our energy a little, we will be asked for it. ’

'They also controlled the ship and prevented us from setting sail, and without the sail, we couldn't leave. I thought we might die miserably at sea. ’

After reading this, Rosen was a little curious: "In this case, how did these people escape?"

Just as he was about to look down, he suddenly heard the mentor's voice in his ear: "I heard that Selena also touched the fourth-ring magic power?"

The instructor's condition also returned to normal, but her tone was a little strange, which reminded Rosen of the last time they parted outside of Chenxi City.

An unpleasant thought suddenly occurred in his mind: 'My mentor seems to be still insisting on exploring my magic power. ’

He answered bravely: "Yes."

"And you have been promoted to the second level?"

"Yeah, right."

"You don't need to hide your unusual speed, because I have calculated carefully that even with the Soul Diamond, you are not that fast."

"So there is only one reasonable explanation, which is that you concealed your true mana cultivation before."

Speaking of this, Rosen suddenly felt a wave of mana coming from his mentor's fingertips, and this wave slowly approached his body.

He also felt that this was not an ordinary mana fluctuation, but a powerful four-ring detection technique "Insight into the Mystery".

Rosen can defend against remote detection, but if he releases this spell close to his skin, he will definitely be seen through.

Previously, Wei Ge could see through some of his secrets, because Wei Ge was his trusted subordinate and only a high-level magician.

But the mentor was a four-ring master, knowing many secrets that only great nobles were qualified to know, which was something Wei Ge could not compare with.

Now, she also used the insight into the mystery spell, so she might be able to directly see through the truth that his magic power was higher than the sixth ring.

The sixth ring was already terrifying enough, and being higher than the sixth ring would definitely cause a tsunami-like movement in the Wit Continent, and if this person was only 20 years old, it would probably alarm the Mother of Nature.

But if he refused to investigate, it would indirectly confirm the mentor's guess.

Rosen immediately understood: 'So this is the purpose of the mentor wanting to be alone with me. '
