Chapter 101

Lin Jie smiled and said goodbye to Claude.

He watched the door of the bookstore close again, and his eyes returned to the stack of thick materials on the counter.

Since time travel, he has rarely touched these things, such as ancient ruins, remote small villages, etc., visiting them, sorting out information, and the busy life that was always running around in the past seems to have been separated in his memory. long time.

Except for a period of time when he just crossed over, he had a general understanding of Azir's history and customs in order to integrate into the local life, and he never did anything related to his profession.

Oh, helping Miss Elf to reshape the meaning of the family crest is one thing, but it hasn't officially started yet, it's just in the preparation stage.

Specifically, we have to wait for Doris to come back from her family, sort out the relevant information and hand it over to him.

In short, after all, he is not familiar with the place of life in this world, and there is nothing to study if he wants to study it. Now Claude has brought good things.

Lin Jie stretched out his hand and gently stroked the paper, feeling better and better.

Since Joseph's disciple is a first-class police inspector, and he has already told him about Moen's identity in person, I believe that before the identity of the Ash Chamber of Commerce is sent, there will be no such things to worry about as today.

This is the advantage of having a wide network of contacts.

Sure enough, I still have to implement my habit of instilling daily chicken soup for customers, put a long line and catch big fish, so as to achieve sustainable development and squeeze... No, recycle the resources of each customer to achieve a win-win situation.

"what are these?"

Moen leaned over and looked at the documents Lin Jie was flicking casually, his gaze was like a cat poking out its paws curiously while its master was working.

The android girl who was originally curious, because she has absorbed a lot of knowledge at a high speed and realized her own gap, she began to desire more knowledge.

"Relevant documents of a lost ancient language of Azir, that is, the words used for the sword inscription on the sword in my bedroom."

Lin Jie put his index finger against her forehead, pushed her away with a little force, and said with a straight face, pretending to be serious: "This is not what you should read, you haven't learned this level yet, be careful and get dizzy." Up, fainted on the spot like those three guys just now."

Mo En covered his forehead, oh, recalling the feeling of being reshaped in his mind, he subconsciously took a step back.

But because Lin Jie mentioned the sword inscription, she subconsciously recalled the sword inscription she had seen in her mind.

From the corner of her eyes, the words on the document and the sword inscription suddenly seemed to be connected. Through those indescribable words, she somehow sensed that the sojourner in it, which spanned tens of thousands of years, belonged to the A ghost that has destroyed civilization.

The wreckage of an entire era, countless incomplete information flows, just passed her eyes at this moment.

Even if it's just a momentary inspiration, it's enough to startle people.

Moen was stunned for a moment, and realized that this was indeed not something she could see. She already felt some hallucinations after just touching it. If she stared at it for a long time, she didn't know what would happen.

She quickly picked up the tea set and ran up to the second floor to wash the cups.

"Remember to help me take down the sword and the information on my desk!"

Lin Jie shouted, then looked at her slender back and sighed.

"Is it necessary to be so scared? Children are still children. Although they are very talented, they are afraid of studying after all."

"If one day she can take the initiative to study, she will really grow up."

"At that time, not only the bookstore, but I can also have an assistant for my research."

Lin Jie shook his head slightly, looking at the yellow cordon outside that was still trembling in the wind, guessing that under such circumstances, there would probably be no guests, so he walked over and simply closed the door, and the sign at the door was flipped to the "resting" side .

He returned to the counter and sat down, turned on the desk lamp to adjust the light, and carefully read all the documents again.

The order of the documents Joseph sorted out was based on an original text plus corresponding research records and related documents. There are 21 pages in the original text, 15 pages in the research records, and the related documents... only the name of one book.

It can be seen that no one is really studying this text.

Lin Jie first read all the documents written by his predecessors.

There were only two researchers, named "Pritt Hall" and "Trolope Rupert", and the original text had four distinct parts.

Rupert worked on three of the historical parts—which Lin Jie called "religious fanaticism," "Kingdom Rise," and "Homomorphic Revenge"—while Hall worked on the remaining bits and pieces. "Customs" section.

After cutting out many meaningless remarks, there are mainly three pieces of useful information.

First, these words were obtained from a ruin excavated in the lower city. The ruins belonged to the Second Era of Azir, that is, the Kingdom of Alfreds in the fire-free period.

And what is recorded in it is also about the lost history.

Second, the general content researched by the two scholars is surprisingly consistent with what Lin Jie saw in his dream before.

Including the worship and panic caused by the coming of the "god", to the rapid rise of the kingdom of Alfreds, and finally the last king of Alfreds challenged the "god", but finally collapsed together with the country.

Add customs such as "Ceremony in the White Hall when you come of age", "King wears a laurel wreath".

Completely, it is the life that Lin Jie saw in his dream that belonged to the Elf King Kendela.

Third, the name of the book is "Dark Ages: A History of the Rise and Fall of Alfreds", and it is currently kept in a scholar organization called the Truth Society, but these two scholars do not have permission to obtain it, and these materials are also private research .

Lin Jie rubbed his temples, feeling that something was unexpected.

Precognitive dreams? Or simply a sense of déjà vu?

But everything in the dream is still clear in my memory, and these materials cannot be fake.

He recognized at a glance that the sword inscription was an ancient language of Azir, because when he was collecting information about Azir, he had seen similar writing and left a little impression on it.

Most of those materials are also provided by the Ash Chamber of Commerce, and there will be no fakes.

It seems... Only by obtaining the History of the Rise and Fall of Alfreds can we further understand what is going on.

Lin Jie put down the documents, only to find that Mo En had put the sword beside him.

He picked up the long sword, stared at the mirror-smooth shining blade, and his eyes fell on the inscription on the spine of the sword.

After rescuing Moen, in order not to scare the children, he put the sword away, and did not look at the sword carefully.

At this moment, several days later, after waking up from that god-killing dream, he stared at the sword for the first time, and suddenly, that sense of familiarity surged into his heart again.

Naturally, he understood what the sword inscription said was "the end of the long night, you are the light".

I also understand the meaning of all rubbings.

What Hall studied was not a "custom" at all, but the ritual of passing the holy sword.

As if a certain switch was turned on, Lin Jie felt the existence of Candela again, and the reflection on the smooth sword surface suddenly turned into the handsome blond and blue-eyed elf king.

The last ghost of Alfreds, the gift before his death - his pure soul.
