Chapter 164: Legend Library (2/3)

　　 After Zhao Xu and Antinoya talked about the entire process of mastering advanced abilities, especially his vow to the death of "Magic Origin".
　　 Antinoya didn't say much, but in the past, he opened a "Lending Certificate" on the desk and asked him to find the answer on his own.
　　 After Zhao Xu resumed his spell position the next day, he took the parchment "proof of borrowing" that Antinoya gave him, and started to the destination "Legend Library" recorded above.
　　Compared with the library of knowledge, which can enrich skills and knowledge, the "Legend Library" has no records at all.
　　 Zhao Xu read the guidebook for novice wizards, which recorded most of the building locations of the floating city, and the core area of ​​the floating city, the "Palace of Truth", did not shy away.
　　 The obelisk at the corner of the floating city is also marked, except that there is only a simple name on it. At the same time, it is marked "no entry" with a circle indicating extreme danger.
　　 But the "Legend Library" does not seem to exist.
　　 Zhao Xu followed the route he remembered, and after spending about twenty minutes, finally walked to the only place indicated on the "borrowing certificate"-the library of knowledge.
The 　　 knowledge library occupies an extremely large area. Zhao Xu had only borrowed books on the bottom two floors before, and the upper level had his current level of knowledge and skills, so there was no need to touch it.
　　 But this time the parchment pointed to the top floor of the "Library of Knowledge", and Zhao Xu also entered the alchemy elevator for the first time.
　　 As the gate opened, Zhao Xu stepped in and walked in. Just as he was about to press the button on the highest floor, the tenth floor, his hand stopped.
　　 There is no tenth floor!
　　 At this time, Zhao Xu took out the proof and turned it over, and found that although the squiggles of Antinoya above were very elegant, they were also extremely clear. It was the tenth level.
　　 Zhao Xu sighed, feeling some pressure.
　　 Since the last time he experienced the disappearance of Classroom 101, he has understood one thing.
　　 As long as Antinoya didn't take him there, there are usually levels waiting for him.
　　 But Zhao Xu still didn't hesitate too much, and pressed the button on the brass hollowed-out layer number-nine layers.
　　 On the alchemy elevator babble, with the sound of ratchet dragging, Zhao Xu slowly ascended with a slight overweight feeling.
　　 At this time, he also took out the "Novice Mage Handbook" and flipped through it, turning to the introduction page of the Knowledge Library.
　　 Zhao Xu frowned when he looked at the contents of the records on each layer.
　　 "Boom." At this time, the elevator slowly crashed into the space on the ninth floor, and the gate opened slowly after touching the mechanism.
　　 Zhao Xu also walked out at this time. In front of him, there are countless rows of thick wooden bookshelves, on which books about knowledge are neatly stacked.
　　 The only strange thing is that the books are covered with a thick layer of dust, as if no one has touched them for decades.
　　 Moreover, an extra metal frame is added to the cover of each classic book, and a lock is also hung on the opening and closing position.
　　 That is, every book about knowledge here is locked.
　　 This level is also completely different from the following levels. There is no front desk for book borrowing and qualification review.
　　 After Zhao Xu got out of the elevator, the gate of the alchemy elevator slowly closed. At the same time, the brass button on the ninth floor also slowly disappeared, as if it had been directly erased.
　　 Zhao Xu looked at the booklet in his hand, shook his head, and stuffed it directly back into his backpack.
　　 It is recorded in the pamphlet—the Library of Knowledge, which has eight floors.
　　 Then what happened to the ninth floor of this layer that he came from?
　　At this time, Zhao Xu also noticed that in the loan certificate that Antinoya had written to him, those words had disappeared bit by bit, as if they had been used.
　　 Zhao Xu immediately became alert, and at the same time began to think about the current situation.
　　 Is this layer in front of him just the ninth layer of nothingness or the tenth layer where his destination is?
　　 And the only thing he can be sure of is that this "proof of loan" given to him by Antinoya will allow him to reach this abandoned floor.
　　 Even he suspected that now that others enter the elevator, they cannot see the brass button on the "nine floor", otherwise this booklet would have been questioned.
　　 At this time, Zhao Xu first released himself a "protection from evil" method, and then walked forward.
　　 He who has the cloak of stars is not so worried about those melee attacks at this moment.
　　 At this time, Zhao Xu approached the first row of bookshelves and directly took down a locked classic.
Zhao Xu barely crossed the metal frame and distinguished the title of the book-"Evil Ritual: Dinner of the Undead". The painting in the center is a group of skeletons braving the magical red light, dancing around a bunch of bonfires. Above is an adventurer with a frightened expression.
　　 Zhao Xu directly stuffed it back, and took out another classic book to take a look, "Theft of Life, A Hundred Ways of Pain".
　　 Zhao Xu immediately scanned the entire row, "The Sacrifice of the Witch", "Ten Taboo Rituals of the Wilds", "The Lich's Phylogram", "The Curse of the Blood Sacrifice, Family", "How to Become a Devil"...
　　 He shook his head suddenly, not looking at any good classics.
　　 Thinking of this, Zhao Xu walked directly to the second bookshelf.
　　After browsing, he reached the third bookshelf again.
　　 In the end, Zhao Xu had already faintly understood.
　　 This floor is an abandoned and banned library, all kinds of evil rituals and vicious curses are displayed in it.
　　 Zhao Xu knew that there were evil spells in spells, but looking at these classics, the methods involved were more primitive and cruel.
　　 seems to be a way that has continued in the uncivilized era.
　　 Suddenly, Zhao Xu frowned.
　　 On the wooden board on the far right of the bookshelf, there is still a bunch of keys that have slowly rusted.
　　 Zhao Xu directly took down the set of keys and looked at it. He found that the handles of the keys were of different shapes, many of which were the heads of skeletons and even demons.
　　 Moreover, a line of characters was finely carved on the head, Zhao Xu opened his eyes and read, "The structure of the evil demon."
　　 He suddenly realized that it was the name of one of the classics on this shelf. The cover of that book at that time was a wicked demon, almost disgusting him.
　　 In other words, which metal lock frame on the outside of the classics corresponds to this key?
　　 Zhao Xu directly took out the classic book and looked at the structure of the key and the hole shape of the padlock in the middle of the book.
　　 Zhao Xu gently inserted the key, and then twisted it.
　　 "Tick." A sound.
　　 The lock is unlocked.
　　 But Zhao Xu immediately reversed the twist and relocked the iron frame that had locked the classics.
　　 Suddenly, Zhao Xu seemed to feel a shock from the book "The Structure of Bad Demons" in his hand.
　　 However, Zhao Xu directly tucked the classics back to their original positions.
　　 "Young man, you are indeed very cautious." An old voice came from behind Zhao Xu.
　　 Zhao Xu was almost scared to turn around to cast spells.
　　 But he immediately regained his composure and turned his head to look at an elderly mage who was already too old with a cane. He leaned back and looked at Zhao Xu, his eyes full of turbidity, as if decayed.
　　 is completely different from those wizards that Zhao Xu had seen before, though old, but still full of energy and spirit.
　　 "Excuse me, are you?" Zhao Xu asked, but in private he was about to take out his protective staff.
　　 "Don't be nervous, I really want to do it to you, you can't get out what you put in your backpack."
　　 The elderly mage said, and couldn't help coughing.
　　 "How did you know that I was going to get something?" Zhao Xu asked for advice at this time.
　　 "Your movements and expressions are too obvious." The elderly mage said with a smile, but the skin on his face was dry and wrinkled, and his laughter seemed a little hoarse.
　　 After hearing these words, Zhao Xu relaxed.
　　 He nodded, and he really should correct those unnecessary movement habits in the future, otherwise he would not be able to conceal these mage's ability to observe and watch.
　　 "Introduce myself first, I am Morton, the tombkeeper of this "abandoned library"."
　　 Abandoned library?
　　 Tombkeeper?
　　 Zhao Xu suddenly noticed the weirdness that the old mage said~EbookFREE.me~ but he still patiently waited for the other party to continue.
　　 At this time, in the entire library, only the voices of the two of them echoed, looking a little gloomy.
　　 "Somewhat curious? Why isn't it the taboo library you guessed? It's abandoned?"
　　 After that, the elderly mage looked back at the site with a depth of one hundred meters and stacked hundreds of bookshelves, "Because the classics here are all outdated."
　　 Zhao Xu also began to understand at this time.
　　 It stands to reason that the more evil and terrible things are, the more people who die to read.
　　 Zhao Xu is not cold about some methods that need to sacrifice others to gain strength.
　　 But for some, these forbidden and terrifying ritual magics themselves have amazing charm.
　　 So at this level, not half a living person is a bit strange.
"Most of these are some ancient rituals handed down here, many of which have been invalidated, but this is not a big problem. Mainly these classics, most of which have some kind of curse effect, will affect the people who read them, so they are all sealed here. , Waiting for the abandonment of the years." The elderly mage recalled.
　　 "Excuse me, Master Morton, do you know how to go to the Legend Library?" Zhao Xu asked humbly at this time.
　　 "Hehe, it's really interesting, it's actually a Level 3 mage like you who is going to the "Legend Library"."
　　 The elderly mage suddenly couldn't help laughing, making Zhao Xu a little worried about the other party.
　　 Suddenly, the old mage’s laughter stopped and he looked at Zhao Xu,
The entrance of the legendary library is in one of the books here.
