Chapter 242 The book hidden in the crevices of the toilet that cannot be shown
Compared to the conventional ruins, the ruins of this magic tower manor indeed gave Alvin more surprises.
In addition to the conventional gold and silver treasures, he also discovered a hidden purple gold ingot warehouse, and harvested a total of 67.3 tons of high-purity purple gold that had been initially refined.
According to the marks printed on the metal ingot, it can be basically confirmed that the two warehouses that were excavated with a large amount of capital ore should also belong to the owner here.
What was even more surprising was that Alvin found two books in this hidden warehouse that were strictly sealed by something similar to a waxy seal, so they did not completely corrode and damage.
After the patient handling of the Banshee, these two precious books in another world were forcibly stabilized by magical power and repaired as much as possible.
One of the books is called "Travels of the Kingdom of Minaishi", and the other is called "The Encyclopedia of Common Biology in the Kingdom".
After Alvin got the processed book from Banshee Winnie, he did not read the contents immediately, but instead studied the two books themselves.
"From the state of the text, these two books seem to be printed no matter how they look. I don't know whether it is woodblock printing or movable type printing, or some strange special method in another world..."
Obviously, this human civilization in another world already has relatively stable means of spreading words, but it just doesn’t know how the output is.
While thinking, Alvin opened "Travels of the Kingdom of Minaich" and saw "City of Hope" in the catalog at first glance.
After looking through the corresponding page numbers, the evaluation of [Southern Important Town] and the architectural description of "divided into inner city and outer city" are both in line with the current situation.
So he judged that this so-called "Minech Kingdom" should be the kingdom where the land where he was originally belonged, and the name of the kingdom that the Countess in the ice coffin had never mentioned.
According to this travelogue, the Minaishi Kingdom has 43 large cities and hundreds of towns, and is one of the most prosperous countries in the southern part of the Shenxiang Continent.
If divided according to direction and geographical conditions, the country can be divided into plains in the south, seaside in the east, mountainous hills in the north, and vast woodlands in the west.
Because it is a travelogue, there is actually not much content about geography, military and politics, and some are all mentioned in one stroke. More writing is used to introduce various humanistic customs and experiences.
For example, in the city of Hope and surrounding areas, the traditional festival "Brave Victory Festival" is held every year on July 7 to commemorate the legendary brave Alayego, who defeated the evil demon king on this day.
The local temple of light will also hold a "Hope Festival" on this day, bringing out the sacred statues of the goddess left over from ancient times, and then the beautiful priestesses will lead the believers to pray collectively.
There are even a lot of complaints in it, such as:
"The local festival snack "soft fried hard noodles candy" (Ivan, who considers himself a full-level translation:???), is much harder than similar snacks in the northern region."
And——"Sweet white juice is really a garbage that only fools can buy, bah!"
After briefly reviewing the "Travels of the Kingdom of Minaich", which was broken by about one-third, Alvin found that there was no more information about the Kingdom, so he put it aside first and then picked up the "Kingdom Common Biology Encyclopedia".
Compared to travel notes, this book is obviously a rigorous book.
In the introduction section, the book says:
"Under the order of the great King Capolaka, a total of 19 scholars participated in the editing of the book, which included 1387 common creatures and monsters in life, and the king personally gave names and definitions to some rare species.
Let us pay tribute to the great king!”
Well, very rigorous, probably...
But then again, Alvin is still very interested in these alien creatures that he has never seen much. Although the books were seriously damaged due to the erosion of time, he soon found two familiar creatures.
"Running Claw Beast:
An omnivorous animal with six legs and good at carrying weights and running. She has a violent personality, is very vengeful, likes fresh meat, but can also survive by simply eating grass.
After long-term domestication by humans, they are currently generally domesticated as knights."
Obviously, this should be the original race of the undead war horses.
Then, Alvin found a small fur ball with wings in the amber in the "Eshes".
"Jiujiu: A vegetarian insect creature that eats plants, and of course some people think they should be considered a kind of goblin.
But compared to the common rare situation of the fairy, the powerful fertility and common nature of this thing is really too bad, as common as insects, so His Majesty the King personally decided that it was the insect.
"Is this introduction a little too hasty?"
Alvin, who took out the amber and played with it, was speechless when he saw this introduction, but the hand-painted illustration next to the introduction was very similar.
Of course, it seems difficult to draw a long hair ball with two wings...
He then saw in this book that the outline is indeed very similar to the Tyrannosaurus Rex, but it looks like a blue-haired [Giant Mouth Monster], and the [Delicious Strips] that look very similar to an octopus but actually lives in a swamp.
.
The reason why it is called this strange name is that it is very delicious after being roasted and has not been thorny. His Majesty the King praised it very much, so he personally gave it a name to replace the original swamp multi-clawed beast.
"From this perspective, there are actually many species of creatures in this world, but the question is, where have these interesting creatures gone?"
Another question that had been puzzled for a long time appeared in Alvin's mind, but soon, he temporarily threw these thoughts aside because a more explosive thing was dug out from the magic tower.
——"Eternal Truth*Dark Secret Art Book"
This book, produced by an organization called "Secret Society", was carefully hidden in the mezzanine in the corner of the bathroom of the Magic Tower.
Because the person who hides may have considered the waterproofing problem, he applied a layer of waterproof material to the hidden compartment, so he was lucky enough to leave a small half of the book on the inside.
Alvin was wondering why he hid it so privately at first.
But as he looked through it, he found that there were all evil secrets that drove the enslave souls and dead spirits. Alvin immediately realized that this thing might be the "forbidden book" of that era.
After all, the belief in the Goddess of Light is obviously to exclude the undead, and the previous golden book also clearly stated that the people's disgust of the undead.
What's more, the techniques recorded here of playing with the soul and the dead's corpse do not seem serious, and there is even an extremely evil technique of practicing soul devouring. If it were Azeroth, it would not be allowed.
Things in the world.
Moreover, the icon of this "Secret Arts and Secret Club" looks familiar...
"Same as the cover of "Death" and the pattern on the dungeon wall...that is, has the main owner found it?"
To be honest, if you don’t look at the surrounding environment, this series of events will be obviously a mysterious organization hidden in the dark, constantly attracting and corroding some senior leaders, plotting to destroy the world, and leaving everything to death.
.
However, the cliché is because such organizations will always be defeated by the protagonist.
But Alvin turned his head and looked at the dead world of the dead outside...
Well, two words - Niu Pi!
"By the way, the crazy organization that quarreled in the novel has read so much, it may have been successful. It seems that this is the first one."
Of course, if you look at it from another perspective, those who succeed should not be able to continue writing this story...
Ivan was really curious about whether the destruction of the world had anything to do with this "secret secret meeting", but he soon had no energy to think about it because he was too sleepy.
"Is it time for Longmian?"
Shaking his head and feeling the constant sleepiness, Alvin forced himself to arrange the follow-up matters for a while, and then turned into a real dragon and flew back to the "Dragon Sleeping Nest", starting the most important part of his dragon life.
