The Whispering Verses Chapter 821: Guests coming soon
Chapter 818 The coming guests
"Good evening, Miss Daniste."
At nine twenty-one in the evening, Shade appeared on a chair in the central circular space of the St. Byrons Library, with the librarian sitting on the sofa opposite. The students who helped with the ceremony said goodbye to Miss Denister, and then stood up and left. This time there were two students, a boy and a girl. The older male is human, and the female has scales on her face. It’s unknown what race she is.
"Her grandmother was a mixed-race mermaid."
Miss Danister noticed Shade's curiosity and said after they walked away.
Miss Danister is still the same, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and holding a book in her hand. She is still in high spirits even late at night. Although Shade wanted to learn more about the process of birthing descendants of mermaids and humans on an academic level, he did not ask out of politeness:
"It's so late, are there many people in the library?"
He noticed a young student sitting on the ground holding a book in the gap between the bookshelf:
"I thought that residential schools like St. Byrons had curfews and lights-out times at night just like regular schools."
"You can do it in the lower grades, and the upper grades can move around in the castle before 11 o'clock at night, but you can't violate school rules. You can stay overnight in the library. The autumn activities of the Astronomy School have just ended, but the star whale and the starry sky broken light path The matter is now aroused, and students want to get answers from the library."
Miss Danister introduced it, so Shade pretended to be curious and said:
“I also heard the news about Fort Midhill in Tobesk. Miss Luvia Anat, the ring wizard in the same group, also observed the Star Sea Whale on Wednesday night. I heard that Midsummer appeared in Fort Midhill. At night, something similar to Tobesk. Is it true? ”
"Yes."
The librarian looked very sad:
"Our principal planned to try his luck to see if Miss Feliana would appear again in this election ceremony, but he encountered this kind of thing. The news you got may not be true. Absolutely, what happened in the Sikar Mountain area from Wednesday night to the early morning of Thursday was tens of thousands of times more complicated than you can imagine."
Seeing that Shad still wanted to ask - Shad actually had no such idea, Miss Danister took the initiative to change the topic:
"This matter has nothing to do with you, and you don't need to inquire too much. I called you here this time because of the 'Guiding Moon' of Sussex Medical College. He was originally expected to come at the end of this month Or we can go to Tobesk early next month, but if something goes wrong, I might not be able to get to Tobesk until mid-November.”
"Is it pushed back a week? It doesn't matter. When the other party arrives, I will take action. I am in Tobesk. It also has a lot to do with it."
Miss Danister smiled and nodded:
"That's good. If it weren't for his difficult identity, why would it be so troublesome to wait until he arrives in Tobesk before we can take action?"
"Identity trouble? I remember you mentioned that the other party also teaches by correspondence. Is this a real identity trouble?"
Shad asked, and Miss Danister gave an affirmative answer:
"You may have heard that the Cavendish royal family in Delarion is involved with the Zalas Conjuration Academy. Talented members of the royal family will be sent to Zalas to study."
For example, Lesia Cavendish of this generation.
"The Anjou royal family of the United Kingdom of Carsonric is involved with the Serkses Higher Medical School, and will also send talented people from the royal family to study in Serksese."
This reminded Shade of the time he handed the suitcase containing the "Difference Engine" blueprints to the princess of the Anjou royal family at Fort Midhill, and that princess clearly had very slight witch powers.
"The real name of the Guiding Moon is Lykins Prichard. This is a distant relative of the Anjou royal family. Mr. Prichard's maternal grandmother and the mother of the contemporary King Carsonric are twin sisters. So after showing his talent, He became the Correspondence Ringmancer of Serkses."
Of course, such an identity is not enough to scare the thirteen-ring warlock. But regarding the matter of "Silver Moon Library", Miss Danister wanted to prevent as many people from knowing as much as possible, so she acted so cautiously:
"Let's talk about some political topics with you. Do you know about the visit to Carsonlik this summer by the Princess of Delarion, Lesia Cavendish, on behalf of the royal family?"
Of course Shade knew about this. Although he was not sure why he mentioned this, he still nodded cautiously:
"Yes, there is a lot of relevant news in the newspaper. Do you also know about this?"
"Of course, we also subscribe to newspapers from the civilized world and care about the politics of the two human kingdoms. I have recently been following the "Hamilton Detective Stories" serialized in the "Steam Bird Daily". Speaking of the protagonist of the novel, and yours Identity is a bit off topic.”
Miss Daniste shook her head and pointed to the coffee table. The newspaper floated to Shade. On it was a photo of Lesia at Coldwater Port when she returned to China:
"For the sake of diplomatic balance, the Anjou royal family plans to have the second princess Margaret of Anjou return to Tobesk this fall or winter."
Xia De also knows about this (Chapter 653), but there have always been such rumors, and winter is about to come, but there is no exact time.
"Lekins Prisha will go to Tobesk with the visiting team. He was not there originally. I thought of some ways to get him to take the initiative to join the visiting team."
Miss Danister stopped talking, because a young lady with orange hair wearing a black robe and an embroidery of the school badge on her chest came over:
"Miss Denister, I'm sorry to disturb you. Professor Wincheless just sent a message asking if the batch of relic books is allowed to be stored in the basement of the library?"
"We will discuss this at the on-campus lunch next week. You should write a reply to Professor Wincheless and ask the School of Library Management to stop throwing dangerous things into the library."
Miss Daniste waved her hand, as if she was bored with the topic. The girl with orange hair nodded slightly, glanced at Shade curiously, then turned and left.
Seeing that Shade was very curious, Miss Danister picked up the teacup and introduced:
"The library has opened some positions, allowing students with high grades and below to do work such as book sorting and library guidance. This is not only remunerative, but also provides limited practical credits, and is even helpful for applying to stay in school to teach. I When I was young, I also did the work of organizing books."
She shook her head slightly and ended the topic:
"In short, it has been confirmed that Princess Margaret and her party will set off at the beginning of November and arrive in Tobesk in the middle of November. You will probably see the news in next week's newspaper, and I will inform you in advance that it is I want you to prepare in advance. I remember that your real occupation is a detective? And you have a knighthood, so you should have a noble background?"
She didn't know anything about Shade.
"Yes."
Xia De nodded immediately, he was very confident:
“Because I saved the queen, I even entered the Yodel Palace and had a private conversation with the king.”
"Then I'll be relieved."
Seeing Shade's appearance, Miss Danister also smiled:
"It's right to ask you for help."
Probably because there was nothing else to do tonight, after talking about business, Miss Daniste talked about the history of the library with Shade. She had promised to list Shade as the next candidate for librarian once she found the "Silver Moon Library", which was certainly not something she said casually.
The large area of the fifth era history is missing. Although this ancient library has also experienced historical chronology, some information has still been preserved, such as the name of Miss Bryony Olanode. , the first librarian of the college library.
"She is considered to be the most important student of Miss Mana Feliana, and she has the blood of elves. Because of the kinship relationship, this also led to the emergence of a large number of elven students in the college."
Miss Danister said, drawing a circle in the air with her fingers, and the yellow moon shadow appeared above the coffee table:
"As one of the original founders of St. Byrons, Miss Olanode's information is closely related to Miss Fillianna. In order to investigate the more specific life of Miss Filliananna, I found the book Looking at some old books in the library, I accidentally discovered that this woman’s core spiritual rune was actually [Yellow Moon].”
"That's a pity. Miss Olanold is a witch living in the fifth era, otherwise we wouldn't have to look for the 'Guiding Moon'."
Xia De said regretfully and looked around:
"This feeling is really interesting. In the same space but at different times, maybe in the distant fifth era, the lady also imagined that her future successors were discussing her story."
"A very romantic fantasy."
The sorceress of the Thirteenth Ring said with a smile, and Shade took the opportunity to introduce his topic:
"Speaking of which, I recently came into contact with the broken holy symbol of the old **** [Grey-robed Sage] and learned a spell related to the library. I remember you mentioned that the establishment of the library was related to the old **** [Grey-robed Sage]. Believers of God."
"Yes, so what spells have you learned?"
Miss Denister motioned to Shade to show it off.
So Xia De sat upright, holding his palms forward, thinking silently:
"Methods to enhance time perception!"
He kept doing this, but nothing happened. For three full seconds, when Shade was already starting to feel embarrassed, a roll of parchment flew from the distance and accurately entered Shade's hands.
"Really?"
Xia De was shocked. He didn't expect this matter to be solved so easily.
But when I looked closely at the roll of parchment, I discovered that it was a paper I had borrowed, written by a senior student at St. Byrons, on methods to enhance time perception. He has tried most of the above methods, but apart from providing some interesting ideas, they are basically useless.
"But it doesn't matter. After all, in the projection state, the power of extraordinary power will be weakened. If the old sage really left the method of enhancing time perception to the believers, and the believers would store it in this library , then maybe I need to go there myself."
"Oh? Did you use a spell to find the information you wanted directly from the library?"
Miss Danister asked, so Shade introduced the general situation of [Library Search] spells, and the librarian lady nodded with great interest:
"I have heard of this kind of spell. To be more precise, in the era when the old gods have not yet left, this should be regarded as a divine spell. After all, the library itself prohibits most of the extraordinary powers of searching books. In order to prevent the secrets of the library from being revealed, only this type of magic can work in the library of St. Byrons."
"So, apart from being partially integrated into us, are there other places where the believer of the old **** can be found? I am very interested in this type of spell."
Shad took the opportunity to ask, Miss Danister nodded:
"Does the Apna Library know?"
"Know."
He met the high-level warlock in the library during the guardian battle of the natural church in the narrow room.
"There is information that shows that before the old god's sect collapsed, a small number of believers brought some important information and joined the Apuna Library."
Xia De immediately decided to contact the library if he had the opportunity. Maybe the information on time perception is there.
"In addition, there is also a very ancient organization, very ancient, but also very ridiculous. They always believe that the end of the world is coming, so they try every means to prepare in advance to deal with the doomsday."
Miss Danister said again, and said a familiar name:
"The Priory of the Light Guide.
That group of people hid very secretly, and I only heard that some of them traded several relics with St. Byrons when I was a student. After the Order of the Old God fell apart, the two top leaders of the Order took some information and joined the Priory. This is not a rumor, it is recorded in the information of St. Byrons. Of course, the vast majority of people in the Order of the Old Gods stayed in St. Byrons and became our faculty, but that was thousands of years ago. ”
"St. Byrons, Apna Library, and the Priory of the Guide of Light may all contain clues."
Xia De thought to himself, feeling as if he would never be free.
