It was Chen Zhao's first time at the Witch Society.
In a city like New York, it was hard to imagine such a quiet and gloomy manor.
The outer walls of the manor were covered in green vines. They hadn't been trimmed at all.
The path inside was gloomy, but it didn't feel scary.
Charlotte was Chen Zhao's guide. She kept leading the way.
Chen Zhao could feel some gazes hidden in the darkness.
However, not a single person appeared before Chen Zhao.
Charlotte brought Chen Zhao to a small house with a round roof. The surroundings and top of the house were also covered in vines.
"Such a small house is your Witch Society's library? You're not lying to me, right? "
"You'll know when you go in." Chen Zhao entered the house.
He realized that there was a vertical hole in the middle of the room.
It was so deep that he couldn't see the bottom. A circular staircase extended downwards.
It was an inverted tower.
Chen Zhao walked down and Charlotte followed behind.
"Can I read all the books here?"
"You can read any book you can open and record it in any way, but you can't take the book out."
Chen Zhao nodded and asked, "Some books can't be opened?"
"This magic library has been enhanced by many spells. Magic has seeped into every book, so many books can't be opened unless you destroy them directly. But the books will be destroyed too."
Chen Zhao followed the winding staircase to the bottom. Only then did he realize how big the space was.
It was a circular room, about the size of a basketball court.
Dozens of bookshelves surrounded the entire basement.
Charlotte snapped her fingers and all the lights in the library lit up.
"Mr. Chen, you can read as you please. I won't accompany you."
Charlotte didn't follow Chen Zhao. She took a book from a bookshelf and sat on the ground to read.
There were labels on the shelves of each bookcase.
Curse, Voodoo, Nature, Enhancement, Summoning, Elemental, Deathtongue, Prophecy …
Chen Zhao took a random book and flipped it open.
Voodoo … Fine, this wasn't suitable for him.
Suddenly, Chen Zhao heard a mysterious record in front of a bookshelf.
Chen Zhao was always curious about mysterious things.
Chen Zhao picked up a book and flipped through it.
There were many magic tools and demonic badges recorded inside.
Suddenly, Chen Zhao's hand stopped.
The key! The Mysterious Key and the Unknown Key.
In the text:
There were many records of keys.
The only thing that could be confirmed was that there were a total of thirteen keys.
And the key had appeared in every era.
That was the legacy of an ancient civilization.
There were also people who went to collect the key and successfully used it to open the third door.
This was the limit of what humans could do.
If you can open this book and have the key, you can try to open the first door.
You want to know more secrets, then collect keys, open more doors.
Maybe you'll find the final answer.
Open the door? What kind of door should I open?
Chen Zhao started from Winnip's first golden key to the Grandfather's second key.
The third key was from Murphy's mother, and the fourth was from Pamela's collection.
But he still didn't know what the key was supposed to open.
He'd seen two books that recorded keys, but none of them mentioned what the key could open.
Chen Zhao took out a key. It wasn't the first time he'd stared blankly at a key.
But he still didn't know how to use it.
Knock, knock.
Just then, Chen Zhao heard footsteps.
Looking up, he saw a woman walk over.
She wore a long white robe and her hair was loose.
She should be a witch here.
"Hello."
"Hello," Chen Zhao replied.
"Are you reading a magic book?"
"Uh …" It should be obvious.
"Is there something you don't know? Maybe I can explain it to you. "
Chen Zhao's heart jumped. Maybe this woman could tell him what the key was and what it was used for.
"Do you know what the key is?"
"The Unknown Key," the woman said.
Chen Zhao rolled his eyes. You don't have to tell me what it says.
"The key is used to unlock the potential of the human body," the woman said.
Intrigued, Chen Zhao asked, "How do you open it?"
"I don't know. I don't have the key. I just remember that it was recorded in a book. Maybe if I find that book, I'll know how to use it."
"Where's that book?"
"I think it's below."
"Below?"
"Yes, below."
"Below the library?"
"Don't you know? There's a secret library below."
Chen Zhao frowned. "Then why are you telling me?"
"You asked, so I'll answer your question." The woman smiled. "Goodbye."
The woman turned to leave. Chen Zhao watched her go around a bookshelf.
Chen Zhao walked behind the bookshelf but realized that the woman was already gone.
"Are you looking for something?" Charlotte stood behind Chen Zhao.
"There was a witch just now. I chased after her but she's already gone."
"That's normal. You're not the only one who can come here," Charlotte answered.
"Is there a lower library here?"
"Yes."
"It's not open to the public?"
"Do you want to go? I can take you there, but you have to open the library yourself. "
Chen Zhao thought for a moment and looked at Charlotte. "By the way, Ms. Charlotte, you haven't paid me yesterday."
Charlotte hesitated for a moment and looked up at Chen Zhao. A strange smile suddenly appeared on her face.
"Indeed, an imposter." Chen Zhao went up to grab "Charlotte," but the moment he did, her body melted like a candle.
"Chen, what are you doing?" Charlotte's voice appeared behind Chen Zhao again.
Chen Zhao turned to look at Charlotte, a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
"Are you real or fake?"
"What are you talking about? What do you mean real or fake?"
"There's something strange about this library. I first saw a woman in a white robe and she told me that there's a secret library below. Then I met an imposter who disguised herself as you. She wanted to take me to the secret library and let me open it."
"There's a library here? I don't know. Maybe I should ask the Mage. "
Charlotte had come to the library many times, but she didn't find anything strange.
