Chapter 474 Not an Easy Trial
There is no real magic mirror in the Great Library of Soran City!

Priest Loken's straightforward answer after hearing Zhu Jue's appeal made the latter unable to react for a while.

"You may have misunderstood me. My visit this time was entrusted by the Great Elder Atal. The Uzza Temple where he was located was invaded some time ago, and a very important item stored in the temple was stolen."

Zhu Jue thought Priest Loken was unwilling to let him borrow the real magic mirror because of his unknown identity, so he specifically described the situation at that time.

As a result, the priest in the golden silk robe on the opposite side still shook his head.

"this."

"Wind chimes."

"Okay, Mr. Fengchi, you should understand that I don't need to deceive you. There really is no magic mirror in the big library that can give people the location of something. I haven't heard anything about the real magic mirror. Mirror's message. Are you sure that elder in the Temple of Uzzah told you this news?"

With a faint smile on his face, Priest Loken once again emphasized the fact that there is no real magic mirror in the Great Library.

Although the other party's tone was flat, Zhu Jue could hear doubts from it.

Talks between the two sides stalled from the start.

The warm sunlight shines through the brown carved wooden windows of the prayer room, and smoke rises from the yellow metal censer.

It failed to dispel even a trace of the cold and hard atmosphere.

"I can pay a certain price in exchange for the opportunity to use the real magic mirror. I am the president of the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce. If you need it, I can donate a considerable amount of repair costs to the big library. Of course, other aspects You can also mention your needs, as long as I can do it, I will never compromise."

Zhu Jue is making the final effort. Whether he can get the "Nakt Manuscript" back has affected his follow-up plans, and there is absolutely no room for loss!
"Sorry, we really don't have a real magic mirror, maybe you can go back and check again, is there any part that you heard wrong?"

Without any intention of changing his words, Priest Loken got up and left the bench, as if preparing to end the conversation.

Zhu Jue just frowned and didn't intend to speak out.

The other party's attitude was obvious enough, and no matter whether there was a real magic mirror or not, at least Priest Loken would not let Zhu Jue use it.

At this moment, Priest Loken, who had walked a few steps outside, stopped suddenly, turned around and said, "You are Mr. Leonard's friend, I can allow you to visit the inside of the Great Library, if you want to read A few books are fine, just leave before moonrise."

After the words fell, without waiting for Zhu Jue's response, he left on his own.

Zhu Jue couldn't help but feel a little irritable when things that he thought could be resolved quickly fell into a stalemate.

He didn't leave the prayer room in a hurry, but began to think in this quiet environment.

Assuming that the Great Library does not have a real magic mirror, the words of Great Elder Atal are just lies compiled by him temporarily.

Why did he do this?
Deceive yourself to Solan City to achieve some ulterior purpose?

However, I entered the dreamland through the dream medicine, and to a certain extent, when I come here is up to me, even if I return now.

Under such a premise, how will Atar calculate himself?
What's more, the two of them only met twice, and what Zhu Jue mentioned to him was the matter of searching for gods. The intersection was very rare, so why did Atar plot against him?
No matter which angle you look at, Zhu Jue can't figure out the reason why Atart tricked himself into Solan City.

Then change your mind.

Assuming there is a real magic mirror in the Great Library, the priests of Loken are lying and just don't want to use it for some reason.

This line is quite simple.

There are two choices before Zhu Jue.

Either leave here, go back and find Great Elder Atal again, ask him to take out the voucher and come back to try again.

Or change another way, bypass these people, and find a way to sneak in to find the real magic mirror.

"Tsk, I'm a good citizen."

Muttering softly, Zhu Jue's helpless words echoed in the prayer room.

The conversation lasted no more than 10 minutes. When Zhu Jue came out, Leonard was looking at a statue in the corridor.

Standing beside him was a young man wearing a plain robe, talking with Leonard about the statue.

"It doesn't look like a good result?"

Leonard, who turned around when he heard the noise behind him, naturally noticed Zhu Jue's expression.

"he is."

Without answering Leonard's question, Zhu Jue turned his gaze to the young man.

"I am the guide prepared by Priest Loken for you. Are you going to the library here?"

Before Leonard could speak, the young man took the initiative to speak.

"Then trouble you."

Although he knew in his heart that there must have been no real magic mirror in the past at this time, Zhu Jue still did not choose to leave. Regardless of whether he has plans for a second visit in the future, it is always right to find out the location of the big library now.

"Hey, when are you going to start on our side?"

As soon as he heard that Zhu Jue was going to the library here, Leonard's face became tense.
"We agreed to get things done by tomorrow."

"Don't worry, I'm just looking around to see if there are any books I want. It won't take much time. If you are worried, you can come with me."

Under the premise that the real magic mirror might not be found, Zhu Jue didn't want to get nothing this trip, so he was still a little concerned about eliminating the dream eater.

"I'm with you. I have no other place to go anyway. It's easy to run into those guys by running around by myself."

Leonard is obviously very concerned about whether the task can be completed on time, and he is afraid that Zhu Jue will waste too much time in the big library, so he will follow him for any reason.

"I have no objection, let's go."

Shrugging, turned around and walked a few steps, as if asking casually,

"By the way, I have a question. Do you know that there is a magic item in Soran City that allows people to know the location of what they want to find?"

While speaking, Zhu Jue's gaze stayed more on the face of the guide.

"I've never heard of it. If there was such a thing, I would have taken someone to look for it."

Leonard answered directly, the young man didn't speak, just shook his head.

The expression does not seem to be fake.

Turning around noncommittally, Zhu Jue did not bring up this topic again.

The former has been in Solan City for a while, and with their habits, they will definitely inquire about magic props in their spare time. However, Leonard has never heard of the real magic mirror, which shows that there should be no such thing among the people. Said the boat.

The latter is someone from the Solan Great Library, and they don't seem to know it from their expressions.

This result made Zhu Jue somewhat disappointed. During the next journey, even the interest in viewing the surrounding scenery disappeared without a trace, and he just walked forward with his head buried.

Pass through the inner corridors and atriums, and come to the real library under the guidance of the guide.

There are a lot of exquisite reliefs carved on the polished marble arch. Zhu Jue raised his neck and looked at the two gates, which are estimated to weigh hundreds of kilograms, wondering if they usually need to be opened and closed by two strong men.

Before he could come to a conclusion, the guide on the side had already raised his hand and turned a metal bar on the left, and the door gradually opened with the sound of the door being turned.

"Someone will close the door when the moon rises, gentlemen, please seize the time."

The young man who led the way had no intention of entering the door. After being reminded, he made a "please" gesture and turned to walk to the corridor on the other side.

As a landmark building of Solan City, the library's specifications are not unusual.

Stepping into the gate, the first thing Zhu Jue saw were dozens of rows of bookshelves with a height of about 5 meters. The four walls were simply divided into three floors, and there were specially erected corridors for people to walk and find the books they wanted.

Across these bookshelves, there are more than a dozen long tables and mahogany chairs in the center of the library. At the moment, a dozen or so young people who are very similar to the young people who brought them here are sitting scatteredly, reading books. There was no sound of conversation, only the rustling of pages rubbing against each other.

Naturally, Zhu Jue didn't come here to look for books, so he didn't mean to stop from the moment he entered the door. He walked around the entire library, looking for what he wanted.

At first Leonard followed, but later he found that Zhu Jue was just wandering around, looking like he was sightseeing, so he picked up a book and went to a nearby table to stay.

It took 10 minutes to walk through the entire library, not to mention the magic mirror, Zhu Jue didn't even see an ordinary mirror.

This result did not exceed Zhu Jue's expectations, and he was troubled by some new problems at this time.

In the process of wandering in the library, Zhu Jue mentioned the real magic mirror more than once to the people who passed by.

Everyone's reaction was the same as that of Leonard and the young man.

Confusion and doubt.

This inevitably caught Zhu Jue's attention.

You must know that Zhu Jue just mentioned the magic mirror to Loken 10 minutes ago, and then came here almost non-stop. Even if you want to make a confession, it's not so fast, is it?
Even if these people were notified in just ten minutes.

One person's denial response can be said to be good acting skills, and the two can be said to have bad luck, and they asked about another "actor king".

But when he asked No. 11, No. 12 or similar answers, things became a little weird.

During this process, Zhu Jue suddenly realized something was wrong in the words of Great Elder Atal.

In the conversation, the Great Elder Atal only mentioned the Great Library of Soran City, but he did not clearly state where or in whose hands the mirror was in the Great Library of Soran City. According to the understanding of normal people, it must be I thought this was a library, and the magic mirror was in it.

Zhu Jue also thought so, so he came to this library.

It turns out that there is a great possibility that there has never been a magic mirror that can let people know where the things they want are.

Some people would say that the Great Library of Solan City is so big, it might be in other hidden places, isn't it?

Yes, it is indeed possible.

Then why did Elder Atal not worry at all about Zhu Jue's misunderstanding when he talked about this matter in the Temple of Uzza?
It's just a reminder, and it doesn't take much effort.

It may be that the Great Elder Atal, who has lived in Uzza for decades, actually doesn't know the details of the Great Library of Solan City?
Then why is he so sure that there is a real magic mirror here!

Even in the original conversation between the two about the mirror, Great Elder Atal did not show any hesitation.

There must be something I missed.

Atal's Trial
Could it be that he is deliberately hiding something?
Frowning gradually, Zhu Jue passed Leonard in deep thought and walked out of the library.

There is no value in further exploration here.

Seeing that Zhu Jue seemed to be leaving, Leonard got up in a hurry, and followed behind out of the library without even returning the book.

Go back along the corridor you came from.

The two had their own thoughts, but walked in silence.

At the end of the corridor.

have a pair of eyes.

Watching them go away.
