Kieran halted his steps and stared at the building not far away from him.
It was a four-story building that took up quite a lot of space. Its style wasn't modern and each of the walls had obvious pillars and arched beams, turning the top of each window into a protruding edge. It wasn't just aesthetically pleasing, it also acted as a shield against the rain.
The pillars and arched beams on top of the door were protruding even more, almost 5 meters long.
It formed an oval-shaped entrance.
Through the entrance, one could enter the Edland City Library.
On one side of the pillar, there was a sign.
However, Kieran's eyes were looking at the other pillar.
In front of the pillar, there was a 2 meter tall, 4 meter long, and 2 palms wide stone tablet erected there.
Time had left obvious mottled marks on the stone tablet but the words on it were still clear.
The words on the stone tablet read:
"Thank you Marulyn Church for building this public library and donating 1192 books."
After the merciful sister and the chief friar, Marulyn Church had made another commendable move and it would no doubt be remembered by the world.
War Calendar 81
…
"War Calendar?
The war era before the Union was formed? "
Kieran was stunned for a while before his eyes locked onto the words "sister" and "chief friar".
Without a doubt, with the prefix of "Marulyn Church", the two names could only be Sister Reid and Chief Friar Gannett.
According to the markings on the map in his mind, this was also where the statue was located.
"The Marulyn Church kept their last hope here?"
Kieran's eyes couldn't hold back his burning gaze as he pondered the question.
What would a church do when it was about to face destruction?
Other than the last struggle before death, the church would surely have the capital to make a comeback.
Even a commoner church like Marulyn was no exception.
Maybe there wouldn't be more money.
But there would surely be a complete legacy and some powerful items.
Because the complete legacy would be the source of Marulyn's revival.
And powerful items would be the guarantee of revival.
Kieran was quite interested in the legacy.
He didn't mind perfecting his skills.
As for those powerful items?
Kieran was determined to win.
Right now, he really needed these powerful tools.
Any kind of plan needed a powerful force to protect it.
Kieran already knew this when he was in the newbie dungeon.
Hu!
After taking in a deep breath, Kieran kept his gaze away from the stone tablet and walked towards the opened Edland City Library.
But just as he lifted his leg, Kieran stopped in his tracks.
"Something's wrong!"
"If the books, scrolls, and some powerful items that recorded the legacy were all placed here, with the stone tablet at the entrance, no matter how well hidden it was, it would be hard for it to escape the looting of certain people. Let alone the Elder Council, even the inner circle of the Holy Relic Society would be more than happy to use the legacy to strengthen their own forces, let alone those unorganized mystics."
Kieran knew very well how much the mystics cared about knowledge and magical items.
That was the degree of desire.
A powerful magic book.
Or a powerful item.
Stirring up a reign of terror was something that couldn't be any more normal.
A complete set of legacy and possibly multiple powerful items would increase the attractiveness by ten times or even more.
Under such circumstances, how could the Edland City Library not be 'visited' by others?
Perhaps before him, there were countless others who came to the library.
Those people must have exhausted all means to search for the 'legacy' that Marulyn would leave behind, but they all came back empty-handed!
Otherwise, Damien of the Twenty Hounds wouldn't have appeared in St. Reid Hospital.
Likewise, Damien who appeared in St. Reid Hospital also told Kieran that the key to locate the legacy of Marulyn Church was inside the hospital!
The statue!
The statue of Sister Reid!
Kieran had been wondering why Damien would teach the secret technique of resonating with the statue to the fake Gannett.
Until now, Kieran finally understood that Damien wanted to move the statue to the hospital!
Only by using the secret technique of resonating with the statue could he do it without anyone noticing and he could easily push the blame of stealing the statue to the fake Gannett.
It was to prevent the conflict between the Elder Council and the Holy Relic Society.
"I see."
Kieran sighed in his heart.
He looked at the map in his mind that was marked by the statue of Sister Reid.
Before this, he thought the marking method was to show respect to Sister Reid but he never thought it was because of the statue itself.
"The statue itself is the most important part!
But moving the statue … "
Kieran frowned. He didn't use the secret technique inside the statue to shroud common people's senses.
He had only managed to obtain a portion of the information hidden in the statue by accident.
The information must have been left behind by the Marulyn Church just in case.
However, for some unknown reason, it didn't work as it should.
There was a high possibility that some powerful enemy appeared and wiped out the entire Marulyn Church, not a single survivor.
The three great wars a hundred years ago were much more tragic than what one could imagine.
Even though Kieran had a simple read, he understood that during the three great wars, every single organization was trying their best to wipe out their enemies.
Once they had the chance, they would uproot their enemies and leave no room for maneuver.
So, it was very normal for a certain mystical faction to be wiped out during a certain period of time in the three great wars.
It was so normal that many people couldn't even clearly state when some organizations were wiped out by who.
For example, the Marulyn Church.
Of course, Kieran wasn't trying to explore the remnants of the three great wars.
He was thinking about how to bring the [Sister Reid Statue] to this place.
First of all, it had to be done quietly!
If Kieran's skill level wasn't -1 and he still had his original equipment, Kieran had some confidence in relying on his illusions and above Transcendence [Undercover] to achieve the feat.
But now, it was filled with difficulties!
From a certain aspect, it was almost impossible for Kieran to do it alone.
Fortunately, it was almost impossible and not certain!
While Kieran had an immature thought in his mind.
One needed to know, Kieran accepted Anne Aldrich Augen's invitation to attend the banquet tonight. If the statue of Sister Reid was stolen during that time, Kieran would have to pay the price.
He would be cleared of suspicion.
But …
