The red moon returns

Chapter 536 Special Library
Going down the stairs, there were only dim gas lights flickering on both sides. Compared with the noisy area on the ground, the silence here was heart-pounding. The only sound echoing on the stairs was the monotonous footsteps of four people.

And there is the old, deep voice of Ms. Nightingale.

"The information about the Light of Miracles is too obscure. Its records only exist in a few historical documents. These are the secrets of the church. You two are both trustworthy young people. I agree to make an exception and allow you to contact each other, but I still hope that you can ensure strict confidentiality."

"In the name of Angle's surname."

"In the name of, uh, Ms. Scarlet."

Lynch also learned to put his hand on his chest and swear, and was very much looking forward to this trip.

He had borrowed books from Archbishop Trinles of the Dark Night Church, but all he got were ordinary books and theological works for the public. He did not see any mysterious documents, let alone any special books like the Book of the Dead. It was said that such documents were stored in a special library and kept strictly confidential. Even church personnel could not borrow them. In the end, he could only borrow some ordinary religious and historical books, none of which involved the field of mysticism.

He had always felt regretful because his curiosity was not satisfied, but it seemed that he would have the opportunity to see the special library of another church this time, which made up for one of his regrets.

"Special library? Oh, yes, but it may not be what you imagine." The old woman explained with a subtle expression, "Basically every church has several special libraries, but because of special requirements, there are very few of them. The Lander Parish of the Church of Suffering has only two, one each in Norlin and Rhine. Most of the records in them are about the mysterious books and history of the church."

"But those are already considered mysterious documents. A few photos killed an expert before. Now there are so many mysterious documents together, is it really not dangerous?"

"No, they are not considered mysterious documents. We have used some special methods to avoid the formation of mysterious documents, so the number of special libraries is so small. Come on, we are here."

Only then did Lynch notice that the four of them had reached the basement of the white tower. There was a circular corridor with nondescript doors on both sides, and there was nothing special about it.

However, when the old woman pushed open one of the doors and walked in, Lynch was stunned.

For a moment, he thought Nightingale had walked into the wrong door.

Behind the door is a small room whose area is difficult to estimate because the room is only white in color. The white room is empty and there is no clutter. Standing inside, one feels indescribably weird.

The old woman had already walked in. Miss Diana tugged at Lynch's sleeve, and Lynch came to his senses and followed in with Natalie. At this time, the old woman was already standing in the middle of the room, and whispered to the opposite wall: "I am Nightingale. I need to check some information. They are certified by me. Please join in the inquiry."

"Understood." A female voice with no emotion came from the other side of the wall. She spoke haltingly, as if she hadn't spoken for a long time. "What do you want to check?"

"Records of the Miracle of Light."

"Understood. Please wait a moment."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Lin Qi was a little disappointed. It seemed that the library was so strict that even someone like Nightingale could not enter. He could only apply from outside and wait for the people inside to find the books. Never mind, this is normal. I hope we don't have to wait too long.

However, after a second at most, before the thought was finished, the voice inside rang again: "There are seven records of the use of Miracle Light, recorded in the 438th year of the Fourth Epoch, the 697th year of the Fourth Epoch, the 1175th year of the Fourth Epoch, the 1511th year of the Fourth Epoch, the 221st year of the Fifth Epoch, the 939th year of the Fifth Epoch, and the 988th year of the Fifth Epoch." What's going on? There's no need to be so fast.

Lynch was a little dazed. Even if there was a computer inside, it couldn't be so fast. Moreover, there was no sound of turning pages. This made him have some strange thoughts.

"These are..."

"The first, third, fourth, fifth and sixth items are usage records, all of which are related to the church. The records are relatively detailed. The second item is also a usage record, but the church was not involved. The record only contains the time and location. The seventh item is a research record, which comes from the research topic of the secret society Witch Paradise. The first item is that in the 438th year of the Fourth Epoch, the Light of Miracles first appeared in the New World, the Lorenzal Federation..."

The voice on the other end read out all seven messages recording the light of miracles over the past two eras without any pause, starting from the first one.

The more Lynch listened, the more he felt something was wrong.

These contents are obviously composed of very scattered information, which is difficult to record on the same carrier. If you want to find them all, you will inevitably have to spend some time searching, and it is impossible to complete it in such a short time.

Unless the people inside had already been waiting for Lynch and his group to ask, or... Lynch's heart trembled, and he thought of a more outrageous possibility.

Or maybe all this information is hidden in her memory, and the so-called looking up information is the process of her retrieving information from her brain.

Damn it.

No wonder Nightingale said just now that they used some method to avoid the danger of mysterious documents. It turned out that this method was used to record all the mysterious history and classics. This did avoid the influence of mysterious documents, but the executors had to record so many things. No wonder the conditions were so harsh and there were only two in the whole Rand.

Damn, I understand. The person who serves as the library probably lives in seclusion behind the wall all year round, without any contact with the outside world, so he speaks so strangely. This is probably to prevent the library from being disturbed by worldly matters and distracting his attention from the books in his mind. Then the room is all in such a monotonous color, probably to ensure that the attention is not distracted to the greatest extent.

Damn it, it’s creepy to think about living in such an environment, and the people inside can only be there voluntarily. Any dissatisfaction in such an environment will be infinitely magnified, and ultimately lead to irreversible consequences.

A normal person would go crazy after a few days of living like this, but the people inside have to spend their entire lives like this. It takes such a huge sacrifice. When these religious people become ruthless, they won't even spare themselves.

At this moment, a silver-haired girl wearing a strange headscarf appeared in Lynch's mind.

In a trance, someone patted his shoulder. Lynch then realized that he was distracted. He quickly collected his distracting thoughts and found that it was Ms. Nightingale who woke him up.

"It seems that you have understood that any carrier that records mysterious information will form a mysterious file, except humans. Therefore, humans are the 'blogs' of each church, recording all information through word of mouth, and can only be relieved of this responsibility after reaching a certain age. Don't think too much, this is everyone's own choice, and don't be distracted. The shorter the external disturbance time, the less interference to the bibliography."

Lynch nodded silently, putting aside all distractions and listening attentively to the sound coming from behind the wall.
