As a professional thief, White Rose has the confidence to enter any place that is said to be well-defended, but she will certainly not avoid some sabotage measures. She didn't want Oris to see this matter at all. Even if the situation was urgent, the thieves and soldiers would definitely not be able to reach any consensus.
After a total of eight grappling hooks were released, White Rose found an entry point. She conjured up the same adsorption organ on her fingers and climbed up the wall nimbly. Lu Ning watched from below - even though she had improved a lot in strength, she still did the same stunts. Not coming.
About thirty meters away, White Rose stopped, and Lu Ning couldn't see what she was doing at this time. He could only see her tinkering with the wall for a long time, and finally got inside without knowing what happened. , a moment later, a rope hung down from above.
Lu Ning climbed up to the tenth floor and found that this was a small tower, and Shang Wenxue had made a hole in the wall next to the tower's window, just big enough for a person to get in.
"Is there still such a loophole here?"
"Magic cannot be absolutely average. Where there are strengths, there are weaknesses. But...here." White Rose pointed to the door of the tower, which is also the only entrance and exit. There are two Titans standing outside, which is now closed. state, so he didn't react to the two people's entry.
"The Magic Council knows this, so it has arranged some other measures. Unfortunately, because of a mole inside, all the defense measures inside have probably stopped operating." White Rose smiled, "Otherwise, I would have to face him as soon as I opened the hole. Two Titan cannon shots."
"Where is this place?" Lu Ning looked around.
"I don't know, I don't understand the Violet Library at all." White Rose shook her head, "Just take it one step at a time. Since the security measures here are closed, the only ones we can encounter here are basically enemies... Don't expect any reinforcements."
Lu Ning nodded.
There is no light in the library except the outer corridor, and even there are many exhibits in the corridor that are still in good condition. Heinz, or the other person behind the scenes, probably didn't want to see these things destroyed. But soon, Lu Ning and Bai Meigui asked about the smell of blood and found the bodies of several guards.
"Eradicate dissidents." White Rose understood at a glance.
"It was a sudden attack, from close range. It was probably the action of someone on patrol together." Lu Ning said after checking the status of the two corpses.
"It seems that Heinz has instigated many people to work for him. I don't know how tempting the conditions he offered are."
"As long as he can win, any conditions will be fine." Lu Ning looked around cautiously, "Do you think anyone here will ambush?"
"I'm more curious about how so many Sorcerer Emperors were subdued. Since Heinz is not here, there must be someone here to do this, right?" White Rose took out a delicate square plate and sprinkled some silver on it. The powder quickly formed a strange pattern on it.
"What's this?"
"Magic detectors require more knowledge and experience to use than those that can be mass-produced now, but they are not as easy to be targeted by various anti-reconnaissance magics." White Rose looked at the pattern formed by the silver powder, "Comparison There are four strong magic gathering places. Do you think they are dangerous enemies or rebels gathered there?"
"how could I know……"
Lu Ning muttered and looked at the surrounding environment carefully. It was very dark in the library, not much different from the black light time I encountered before. She was very good at ambushes in the shadows, so she knew it wouldn't be pretty if she was attacked in this situation.
"Rain of light."
She cast an intermediate-level magical spell, and beams of light shot out from her palms and adhered to walls and other places, instantly illuminating the road in front of her.
"It looks good, but are you sure this won't alert others?" White Rose smiled.
"It would be great if they dare to come over."
With the knowledge given by the magic book, Lu Ning can already use a variety of magic combinations to fight, just like the training he experienced before. Although the several magic books in her hand are fragments, it does not weaken the power of magic itself. The only thing that needs to be paid attention to is that Lu Ning should use his magic power as sparingly as possible.
After the two walked through a corridor, they entered a place where no outside light shone at all. Many gems were inlaid on the roof, emitting a not very bright light, making this room look like an underground cave. There are not many road signs in the high-rise area as there are below. Lu Ning and Bai Meigui searched around and found no words indicating the function of this place. And the doors of the rooms around this gem "cave" are all covered with things that seem to have been scrawled randomly, with no actual meaning.
Lu Ning reached out and pushed one of the doors: "It's locked."
"Of course it will be locked... huh?"
"The time when Heinz started to have civil unrest was around dawn. No matter what the magicians' schedules were at this time, they would definitely be in their own rooms or laboratories. We have been talking here for so long. If there is anyone in the room, they should The door is open, which means no one is here."
"But the upper area of the library is basically equivalent to the private area of the members of the parliament. It will not be locked except for personal use."
"This is the private room of a certain council member, so the other rooms around here are probably the same. It's just that we are not sure which category it is yet."
The two looked at each other and pushed all the doors around them, all of them were locked.
"Very good. Unless everyone in the Magic Council is a night owl, they must have been prepared for this." White Rose was obviously in a better mood.
"Well, it seems that someone anticipated this civil unrest and summoned everyone in advance. Otherwise, it would be strange that everyone did not stay in this gathering private room area." Lu Ning continued to walk inside, "It's just that since someone came in advance If you noticed it, why didn't you fight back? If Heinz had already gained an overwhelming advantage, he could even have a peaceful evolution through the parliament, and there would be no need to do what he did today."
At this moment, her hand pushing towards a door suddenly felt no strength, and with a creak, the door opened.
"Oh, looks like that's the end of it?" Bai Meigui walked over quickly and looked inside.
"It's a laboratory."
This laboratory is quite high-end. It is a comprehensive magic laboratory with a large area. Lu Ning roughly estimated the area. About 20 meters of the corridor here belongs to the laboratory.
Of course no one is here at this time.
"But laboratories should generally lock the door, right?" Bai Meigui walked in and checked carefully to make sure there was no mechanism inside.
"That's not necessarily true." After Lu Ning walked in, he looked up at a bookshelf by the wall. The top floor displayed different antique-like things, while the bottom floor was full of experimental records and reports. Judging from some of the signatures, this is not a private laboratory. Many magicians have conducted experiments here.
"I saw Mr. Percival's name. This laboratory should be a general laboratory. Maybe many people will use it and it will not be locked at ordinary times." Lu Ning turned around several experimental benches, but there was nothing on them. The experiment was in progress, and the previous cleaning was very clean, leaving no trace at all.
"Maybe the houses from here are not closed... huh?"
When Lu Ning walked to the last row of experimental tables, she suddenly saw that a closed container here was closed, which was different from the open ones in front. She knelt down, opened the cabinet below, shined a light on it, and quickly took out two volumes of well-copied parchment.
"Is this a rubbing of a magic book?"
White Rose heard the sound and came over. She could recognize the strong magic fluctuations on it, but it was hard to tell whether it was a rubbing. But when she found the container, she started trying to open it.
"These are all people with self-set passwords..."
Before Lu Ning finished speaking, Bai Meigui opened the volume.
"Sorry, we usually go to various ruins to rob tombs, and the safety measures of this experimental device are not to that extent." She said with a proud smile.
The container contains a "fruit plate", and the entire base is a three-layered crystal plate, with a circle of carefully carved fruits placed on each layer, totaling fifteen kinds. Lu Ning had no doubts when she saw this thing. This experimental bench must be where the work of copying the magic book was being carried out.
"But it looks like it's more than just copying." Lu Ning continued to take things out from the cabinet below, "Judging from the title of the report here, it seems that the magic book must go through a series of processes after being collected before it can be officially collected. Enter the library."
"It's not surprising. After all, the Magic Council has been doing this for so long. There must be a lot of security measures in place."
Lu Ning was already familiar with flipping through documents. She quickly organized them according to the time marks and found out the specific treatment of the magic book.
"After a magic book is obtained, it must be read by three magicians above the Grand Magister, and then the first rating judgment will be made. If there is any objection, there will be another three people to review it. The next step is the file record, which is also It’s done. Now we’re in the third step, copying.”
"That's the rubbing, right?"
"Well..." Lu Ning quickly looked through the reports. These system processes are all recorded, but because they have not been completed yet, there is no final completion report.
"The copying part is not completed by one person. The total number of items that need to be copied is... fifteen? I remember that I knew it before. It was ten items. The name of the last copyist is Gabriel. This should be the parliament The craftsman among the official members is named after the Emperor."
Lu Ning flipped through the report again.
"Wait a minute, there is another problem with the magic book ahead... If it causes harm to the rater during the first rating, the magic book will be temporarily sealed and the Emperor Sage will be given a re-rating."
"I found something here." At this time, Bai Meigui was already browsing the row of old bookshelves at the back. Although she was not as fast as Lu Ning, she was still much faster than ordinary people.
"What?" Lu Ning looked back and found a file listing the names of the magic books that had been sealed in this laboratory so far.
Just when Lu Ning was about to walk over and take a look, footsteps suddenly came from outside. It was very slight, but it was easy for these two people to spot it.
The two of them held their breaths in unison and got behind the experimental table together. Lu Ning also removed the light emitted in the room, making the place dark again.
"This door is unlocked."
Outsiders also discovered the laboratory. The door rang again and the visitor walked into the room.
"The corridor was illuminated, but there was no light in this room."
"Garcia, do you think they'll miss this room?"
"I do not think so."
Lu Ning and Bai Meigui suddenly heard the scream of a fierce ghost. Lu Ning hurriedly stood up and fired a lighting spell: "Wait! It's me!"
"Lillian?" The bone spear in Garcia's hand that was ready to go dissipated. She raised her eyebrows and showed a cheerful smile, while Juno next to her shrugged.
"What happened? Why did you come here?" Lu Ning asked, "I thought you would help Pengshan Yuanzi guard the Conferred God Platform."
"Unless the other party can spare the power to dedicate a Royal Saint to deal with her, it will be all for nothing." Garcia smiled, "Pengshan has given us the news, and now there are three groups of people coming besides us. When we get to the library, don’t worry, we are all reliable companions. But please pay attention. Pengshan had previously dealt with a guy who attacked her, and finally got information. It seems that a person named Oris is the enemy. "
Lu Ning and Bai Meigui's expressions changed slightly in an instant.
"Oris?"
"Garcia, it seems they have already encountered each other." Juno shook his head, "Yes, Oris should be an enemy, and it was very early. My investigation scope cannot reach the patrolling guards, and it is difficult to detect them. This matter. However, several of our enemies have already revealed their identities... Yi Laer, Oris, and Yuanzi killed one before, so judging from this, there are not many left... Oh, Hyakki Hiro. "
"But we just separated from him and now he's with someone else!"
"It's hard to be sure whether Oris will kill someone. What he has done so far is probably to pass on some false information to mislead, but... it's already this time, right? Whether he is a tourist or a local, he should be There won't be much of a bottom line left." Garcia sighed, "But we're not familiar with this place, and we don't know where they are."
"Isn't it possible to use necromancy magic as well?" White Rose suddenly asked.
"Detection-type necromancy magic needs to be driven by the soul, but the Violet Library itself has advanced purification measures. It can't summon a few souls here, and at most it can cause some supernatural phenomena."
"Then we have only one choice, speed up." Lu Ning said cruelly, "Don't worry about Oris's problem. We are here to resolve the current situation in the library. It's best to figure out the key quickly. "
White Rose handed over the book.
"I'm here to search for traces. Garcia, you are good at this kind of rummaging work to help. Since the people here are retreating in an orderly manner, what they need is a suitable opportunity to counterattack." Juno immediately assigned the work.
