Sword Sorcery

Chapter 246 Darkroom
"what?!"

Aaron couldn't help but sighed lightly, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Behind the door is a spacious room, and there is no one in the room?!"

At this moment, Aaron's pale red eyes were covered with a dark film, with colorful brilliance floating on it, which was the scene of the room behind the gate.

"A Ring of Witchcraft·True Sight Ghost Mask" is a detection witchcraft belonging to the negative shadow system. It is characterized by its "illusory" material form, and it is not easy to trigger some witchcraft traps based on real objects.

Now, with Aaron sharing the vision of the True Sighting Ghost Face, he can clearly see—

Behind the gate is a fairly wide room, in which there are brown-wood bookshelves, and a large chandelier made of crystal glass hangs from the ceiling, and the wick emits a warm and bright light.

The ground is a soft white carpet, and beautiful flowers are drawn on the surface of the carpet. With a burst of warm and moving luster, it gives people a very elegant feeling.

However.
There is not a single figure in the entire room!

"It's really strange that there is only this door at the end of this corridor."

Aaron commanded the "True Sighting Ghost Face" to turn its field of vision and observe the details of the entire room. However, the more he looked, the more puzzled he became: "There is only one room behind the gate, and there is no exit from this room!"

There was no one in the room, and there was no exit, which made Aaron feel the strangest - so, wouldn't this corridor be a 'dead end'?

"No, this place can't be a dead end, otherwise, there's no need to have two monsters guarding the door."

"Looks like I have to go in and look through it myself."

Aaron pulled out "Darkness Chaser" with one hand, and stuck the dazzling white blade in the gap of the door. Then, he used the perspective of "True Sight Ghost Face" to turn and found the door bolt position on the inside of the door— —

Swish!
The snow-white sword cut off the door bolt directly, and the door was pushed open by Aaron with one hand, revealing a room that was the same as what "True Sighting Ghost Face" saw.

"There is no witchcraft trap set on the door. It seems that they should think that the murderer and others will not come here."

Aaron observed the door, and then turned his gaze to the room. Then, he found that the books on the bookshelf were all poems and praises about the 'storm', which seemed to have the characteristics of the 'hand of the storm'—— Advocates the wind element and fears the storm.

"Number Zero, is there any special information about 'secret chambers' and 'secret passages' in these books?"

Aaron asked the chip, and the chip quickly replied:

"Drip, the mission has been established and is being scanned. Please keep the host moving!"

After Aaron was promoted to become an elemental wizard, his own chip ability has been greatly improved, especially in the aspect of 'scanning', which can be called a qualitative leap!
Among them, the chip's 'precise' scanning capability has reached a range of ten meters. As long as these books are not attached to witchcraft energy and do not belong to the scope of 'witch books', the chip can quickly interpret their contents.

Therefore, when Aaron was observing the details on the bookshelf, he also let the chip scan the books, quickly interpreting their information, in order to find some places worthy of attention.

"Drip, the scan is complete, and the analysis result is——in all the books, there is no suggestive information about 'secret passages' or 'secret rooms'."

Hearing the chip's reply, Aaron's heart sank, and he muttered to himself: "There is no suggestive information? It seems that the real clues are not on the bookshelves? Tch, I thought they put so many bookshelves, it must be with intent."

Due to his habit of thinking, Aaron raised his head subconsciously and looked at the ceiling. All he saw was the reflection of a chandelier made of crystal glass, completely filling his pale red eyes.
Suddenly, Aaron's eyes flickered, and he whispered:
"Huh? This thing."

Aaron took two steps back, avoided the sight of the crystal chandelier, and saw the ceiling pattern that he had overlooked. Then, a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth——

"Number zero, the stronghold of the Storm Hand Academy is Stormwind City. I remember that Stormwind City is located on the mountainside of the Icewind Mountain Range. There is a large lake at the foot of the Icewind Mountain Range, right?"

"Drip, according to the information in the host's memory area - Stormwind City is a vast wizard academy, located on the mountainside of the Icewind Mountain Range 1800 meters above the ground, and there is a large lake at the foot of the mountain, named Snowstorm Lake, the overall It's triangular."

After getting the answer from the chip, Aaron confirmed his guess, and immediately ordered: "Search the contents of the books on the bookshelf again, and define the keywords as 'Snowstorm Lake' and 'City of Stormwind'!"

"Drip, the task was established, and the scan was completed during the re-scanning process. Among all the books, only one book that meets the search criteria has been found so far."

Aaron's eyes lit up, and he asked quickly, "Where is that book?"

"Located 7 meters east of the host, the bookcase on the fourth floor on the second shelf, counting from left to right, is the 13th book."

Aaron hurriedly walked to the bookshelf, glanced quickly, and saw the book titled "Praise of the Wind and Snow".

Then, Aaron reached out and took "In Praise of the Wind and Snow" from the bookshelf, and under the prompt of the chip, he quickly flipped through page 54——

On this page of paper, a broad blue lake is drawn.

It is the pattern that Aaron saw on the ceiling, and it is also the Icewind Mountain where Stormwind City is located, and the large lake at the foot of the mountain—Blizzard Lake.

However, Aaron's gaze didn't stay on the snowy lake for too long, but moved down, scanning a lot of poems along the way, and finally stopped at the bottom of the page.

On the slightly yellowed paper, a rather weird hieroglyph was depicted in a writing style almost like a 'tadpole', however, Aaron happened to know this paragraph of text.

Because they are a section of 'Ancient Byron'.

"Dolorenska"

Aaron chanted this incantation. Accompanied by the rhythmic chanting, the ancient Byron text on the page became brighter. When the incantation was finished, the entire ancient Byron text burst into light. !

The next moment, all the bookshelves made a sound of shutting down, and each of the large bookshelves broke down into pieces of 'parts', like the gears in the dial of a clock, and the combination of 'parts' started again.

pat!

Finally, with the sound of a mechanism falling, the bookshelf in front of Aaron has completely disappeared, leaving only a deep passage leading to the ground——

"This place is really hidden."

There was a smile on the corner of Aaron's mouth, and he walked forward unhurriedly, gradually disappearing into the shadow of the passage
