Until the old man closed the door and left, Yu Yueming had not fully reacted.

The electric light has been turned off and the flames in the fireplace are about to go out. Only the faint moonlight shines through the gauze of the curtains. This quiet atmosphere brings a sense of peace and makes Yu Yueming, who is still confused, gradually calm down.

"The Book of the Dead"... Yes, this book has appeared in "The Horror of Dunwich".

It is better to say that this book has appeared in many works of the Chronicles. According to rumors, it is a book compiled by the Arab madman Abdul Alhassad, which records information and secrets about the Chronicles gods and many creatures.

There is nothing special about this book itself, it is a printed version that can be printed in batches.

However, in most areas, this book is listed as a forbidden book. Only a very small number of libraries and museums with profound backgrounds have copies of this book, and perhaps unknown copies are hidden by collectors.

In short, the copy of "The Book of the Dead" that is openly surviving may only have single digits, and is indeed a very precious book.

What makes it precious lies in the knowledge it records. According to Yu Yueming's own shallow understanding, it is not an exaggeration to call this book an encyclopedia of the mythology of the Chronicle.

However, the novel is just a novel after all. The content of this book only shows excerpts from some paragraphs in the Kesi novel, and Yu Yueming could not know what it actually records.

But since it is such a precious book, it is understandable that the old director Armitage specifically reminded him to take care of the book.

After all, why did he travel into a novel of Chris? Or is this world really just a novel...?

Yu Yueming shook his head, trying not to think so much, but instead turned his attention to the two books placed on the desk.

...Two books?

The other party just now overlapped when he showed the book. Now when he thought about it, what is another book?

Moreover, he was quite curious about the content of "The Book of the Dead". As a genius enthusiast, there is now a real "The Book of the Dead" in front of him. Isn't it too much to take a look at the content?

Yu Yueming's claws were ready to move. He walked to the desk step by step and looked at the books.

The moonlight shone on the desk, illuminating the area. The dogs themselves were able to see night vision, and the room that was supposed to be pitch black was extremely clear in his eyes. He could easily read texts in this environment.

With a sense of expectation, Yu Yueming stood up, put his front paws on the desk, and carefully opened the book with the tips of his claws.

The easy things that were done in human times seemed so difficult at this moment. He had to be careful not to leave scratches on the pages to avoid being discovered. After many difficult attempts, he finally successfully opened the book.

Then, looking at the words in front of him that seemed to be sorted in a mess, he was instantly confused.

What is this? What is he looking at? Why do he look familiar with these letters, but he can't read any of the words connected together?

At this time, he suddenly remembered that in the "Tunwich Horrors", it was mentioned that the complete copy of the "The Book of the Necromancer" preserved by the University of Miskatonik seemed to be... in Latin.

Although he has inexplicably become able to understand English smoothly, this does not mean that he can read Latin without any obstacles.

In fact, he couldn't understand almost a word.

Realizing this fact, Yu Yueming silently closed the book and focused on another book pressed down below.

The book looked a bit broken. Although it was a large piece of hundreds of pages like "The Book of the Dead", it can be seen from the side that its pages have many incomplete details.

At a rough look, about half of the pages were missing. These gaps caused the hard-shell book not to be flat on the left and right, and looked very shabby.

Yu Yueming moved the book above and unexpectedly discovered that the book with a missing page is also "Book of the Dead".

He opened the pages in confusion and found that the book was actually very considerate in the English version.

After noticing this, he also recalled some details.

In The Dunwich Horror, the descendant of the Ughur who was bitten to death by a guard dog did carry an English version of The Book of the Dead, but that book was incomplete and had nothing he wanted.

That's why he broke into the University of Miskatonik to find the full version and finally died in the library.

In other words, is this book the incomplete version of the book?

However, although it was in English, Yu Yueming still retreated after trying to read a sentence or two.

I can't understand, I really can't understand!

It’s not that his English is too bad. The problem is that the sentences in the book use difficult and obscure words, while he masters daily words, which do not match the two at all.

Moreover, although his English listening skills have been inexplicably improved, his reading ability has not changed.

... Could it be that hearing inherits the memory of this body? It is not surprising that domestic dogs, especially working dogs that often execute instructions, can understand simple human words.

Yu Yueming thought, and at the same time, he yawned heavily.

In the dungeon, no matter what, his spirit was a little tense. Now, as soon as he relaxed, he was a little sleepy.

He also wanted to look through the Book of the Dead to see if he could find information about the monsters in the previous copy, but after discovering that there was no directory in this book, Yu Yueming temporarily gave up this idea.

The feeling of fatigue accumulated in the dungeon surged, causing him to yawn a big yawn.

You can read the book anytime, so let's take a break now.

In the corner of the study, there was a nest covered with cotton blankets. Yu Yueming restored the location of the book, walked into the nest, rested his head on his forearm, and fell asleep.

——

Early the next morning, Yu Yueming was awakened by the sound of sunshine and people's footsteps.

He stretched out in confusion, and then saw the claws in front of him.

Oh yes. He remembered it. He traveled through time and turned into a dog.

The old man who opened the door and entered the room interrupted his thoughts. He was taken to the yard and had a hearty breakfast in front of him.

To be precise, only the amount is very rich - it is a large pot of beef. Raw.

Yu Yueming looked at the breakfast with some complex eyes. Well, so much beef is definitely not cheap. It is definitely a sumptuous meal for dogs, but for humans... this food is a bit difficult to accept.

Should he be glad that he did not eat dog food, or should he regret that he did not eat dog food? Then again, is there dog food in this era?

Seeing that Yu Yueming was not moving, the old man spoke.

"Eat, Gray. You can do whatever you want during the day, but remember to come back before supper."

After the old man gave the order, he turned around and left. Yu Yueming frowned and looked at the beef for a while, but finally tried to take a bite.

He could not have endured hunger all the time. Moreover, the famous dish Beef Tartare is raw beef. Besides, unlike the human condition, with his current physique, he should not have any problems with eating raw food.

The taste of canine family is different from that of humans. Yu Yueming did not taste the fishy smell he thought would be, but tasted a faint umami flavor. Since the taste of the food did not hinder him, he quickly solved the breakfast.

Next... he looked at the unlocked courtyard gate and remembered the old man's previous words.
