* BAM * He slammed the door open and ran down the hallway. It felt like the whole hallway was twisting, and he could barely stand straight. There was no one around. The students were not in their dorms.
It was evening, and it was getting dark outside. Moonlight poured into the room through the window, and everything in the room was covered with a thin layer of white mist. The yellow light from the oil lamp shone on Angele's face, and his eyes and nose were covered with dark shadows.
The woman's mouth was slightly open, and she was staring at Angele. It seemed like she wanted to say something.
'Was it just an illusion?' Angele checked the record.
* GA *
Angele slowly turned to the second page after several minutes. His eyebrows were still furrowed.
'Abnormal state detected in host body, blood flow rate increased by 300%, blood vessels all over body showing slight rupture.' 'Force field receded, host body beginning to regain consciousness.' 'Energy radiation disappeared, force field disappeared.' 'Abnormal state of host body recovered, feeling the flow of time.'
It continued to say: This book is only for laying the foundation. If you want to advance further, you can go to Moli Rodan. I heard that there's a trade fair there every 50 years. I don't want to write anything that's too advanced. For the sake of your life and soul, I suggest that you don't touch those advanced meditation manuals when you don't have enough mentality. '
Suddenly. He saw the reflection of his own face in the glass window opposite him. His eyes were white, and his mouth was wide open. It seemed like he was shouting something, and his face was filled with despair and pain. The expression on his face was exactly the same as the woman in the portrait.
The words were messy, and they looked like some kind of runes, but they were actually written in the Anmag language. It was like a row of black tadpoles, arranged in the middle of the page.
Angele closed the door carefully and put down the package and envelope. He sat down in front of the desk with the book in hand and put the book on the desk. He took a deep breath and tried to calm his anticipation and excitement. He started looking at the book carefully.
The cover of the book was still yellow, but the essence of the book had changed. Angele's expression was changing, and he was hesitating. The hallucinatory experience just now told him that this book was quite dangerous. However, it was not easy for him to obtain a clue about the Magi, and he was not willing to give it up just like that.
The words on the page suddenly disappeared, and a line of words appeared out of thin air, from nothing to something, from blurry to clear. 'Congratulations, dear friend, you have passed the test of spiritual will in this book. '
"Zero, start recording the data," he said at the same time.
Angele inhaled deeply, and it felt like his chest was swelling up. The A.I. Chip's voice woke him up.
Angele opened his eyes again. He looked at the leather scroll on the table. The cover of the book had completely changed. The color did not change. A row of strange symbols was neatly arranged in the middle of the cover. The original ear pattern had completely disappeared. Below the symbol was the picture of a black door. What was even more strange was that the pattern of the door seemed to be alive, swaying slightly and making a slight creaking noise. It was similar to the 3D animation Angele had seen in his previous life.
The room was silent, and even the usual noisy chatter outside had disappeared. Even the noises made by the insects outside the window had disappeared. A heavy and oppressive feeling filled the air.
Angele's body trembled, and it seemed like he was woken up by the noise. He suddenly stood up and wiped his face with his hands. He wanted to wipe the sweat off his face.
A gentle breeze blew in from the window.
Angele stood in the room for a while, and a determined look appeared on his face. He slowly walked to the book and opened the second page.
It was the same sentence again. A row of small words was neatly arranged in the middle of the brown page.
The guard stopped him as he walked to the entrance of the building.
"Zero, analyze the surroundings, and report back immediately if you find anything unusual," Angele ordered.
* Hua * He quickly turned the page.
"When did I fall asleep?" Angele lowered his head and looked at the book. He found that the book was still on the first page. The tadpole-sized words were neatly arranged in the middle of the page.
The silver light disappeared as quickly as it came. In less than five seconds, it had completely faded away.
There was a colorful picture on the second page. A noblewoman wearing a white lace dress and a red round hat was sitting in front of a mirror quietly, looking at the book. It seemed like the woman was staring at Angele with a pair of black eyes on her beautiful face. The colors were drawn vividly, and the portrait was like a living person, vivid and lifelike. Angele's expression changed. He moved closer to the face and observed the picture carefully. He could even see the pores on the noblewoman's face.
* WOO *
'Task created. Analyzing …' Zero executed the order faithfully. However, there was no response from Zero. Angele was a bit relieved after hearing the report. His sight returned to the page. All of a sudden, the fear in his heart surged. The noblewoman's mouth was wide open, and her expression changed. Her face was filled with despair, and her eyes looked like those of a prisoner that was about to be hanged. Angele felt goosebumps all over his body, and goosebumps appeared on his skin.
'I'm listening …'
Angele's body was covered with goosebumps. He put his right hand on the crossguard sword on the edge of the table. An inexplicable sense of danger made him feel as if he was approaching from a strange angle.
Angele looked at the words and started thinking. He scrunched his eyebrows and stared at the words for a long time, but he did not turn the page.
* HISS *
A black bird that looked like a crow flew over the window and made a strange noise.
There was only one line on the brown leather paper on the first page of the book.
'When a wizard reads this book, the world he sees will be different from that of a normal person.' A strange message was sent directly into Angele's brain.
"Thanks, Uncle House." Angele smiled and nodded. He walked into the guard room and received a small black package and a letter. He then returned to his dorm room.
He looked at the crystal clock he just bought. It was 9 o 'clock at night.
Angele could hear people talking and the sound of doors opening and closing from time to time. Angele calmed down and felt safer.
'I knew it wasn't a dream.' Angele's expression changed.
His scalp was numb, and his face was covered with sweat.
A silver glow suddenly appeared on the surface of the book. It looked like the reflection of water on the surface of the book.
'Recording.' Zero activated the recording function.
The cover of the book was brown, and there was a picture of an ear sewn on the front. It took up half of the cover. There was a small line on the bottom right corner: Written by Burkwili. The book was thick, and it looked like an English-Chinese dictionary. It weighed about four to five kilograms. Angele sat up straight after he calmed down. He raised his right hand and turned to the first page of the book.
The words were written in Anmag, and they were clear and easy to understand.
"Young Master Angele, there's a letter for you. Also, a servant just brought something to you. Come in and take it. "The guard was a middle-aged man with messy hair and a rosacea nose. He was holding a wineskin in his hand when he was talking, and he was drunk.
"Damn it!" Angele shouted. He pushed the chair away and ran out of the room.
Nothing happened. Angele stared at the page. There was no longer a portrait of the noblewoman on the second page. Instead, there were many lines of words. The first line of the title clearly stated: This is only a low-level meditation manual.
* Whoosh *
'Zero, check the condition of this book. Is it dangerous?'
'I'm listening …'
'I'm listening …' Angele suddenly remembered the sentence he just read. His scalp tingled.
He opened his eyes and realized that he had fallen asleep on the book.
He was holding the leather book Adolf gave him. Angele left the house and went back to the school in a carriage.
A gentle breeze blew into the room from the open window. Angele could feel the coolness on his body. He realized that he was soaked in cold sweat.
'Checking … Unknown object not fully analyzed. Danger unknown. Please be careful.' Zero's message made Angele hesitate.
'I'm listening …'
* Clang * The window was blown violently against the window lattice. Angele stood up, closed the window, and sat down again. He was surprised when he looked at the page again.
'Abnormal condition occurred in your body. Blood flow increased by 300%, and the blood vessels in your body are slightly ruptured,' Zero reported.
'Beep! Abnormal force field detected! Abnormal force field detected! Please stay at least 50 meters away from the force field! Please stay at least 50 meters away from the force field! 'Zero's warning echoed in Angele's ears.
