The next day, after breakfast and saying goodbye to my parents who were going to the company, I hurried back to my room and logged into the game.
I spent the entire day yesterday catching up on my homework, so today I must hurry up and solve this puzzle and get the holy relic inside.
But when I came up, I saw Ivan and Cecilia were already waiting in the game, and they seemed to be observing the surroundings. They only came over after I logged into the game.
"Ann seems very happy?" Cecilia keenly noticed my good mood.
"After all, we helped An An finish her homework." Yiwen looked quite proud.
It would have been fine if she hadn't said it, but once she did, it reminded me of the ridiculous answer in the homework book. I gritted my teeth and reached out to pinch the other person's face, "What did you write yesterday? How can an elementary school student use quadratic equations and series operations to solve problems?"
"Cecilia, you too, there's no need for so many famous quotes and philosophies in elementary school essays. And most importantly, why is every diary entry about the feeling of eating desserts?"
"Is the dessert not delicious?" Cecilia tilted her head.
"Of course it's delicious... No, that's not the point!"
Yiwen, who escaped from my clutches, rubbed his cheek and said, "Does that mean An An has to rewrite it?"
"What else?" I said angrily.
"Then why do you look so happy? Could it be that An An is a masochist... Ouch."
I took my hand back and pouted, "Dad gave me a test paper. I did well, so he promised me that I don't have to do these homework in the future. He will explain to the teacher."
You know how much effort I put into keeping my score around the passing mark yesterday, but fortunately I got a perfect result in the end.
I didn't plan to continue this topic, so I asked the two kids, "By the way, you guys came online early, did you find anything around?"
I spent the whole day yesterday catching up on my homework, so I definitely didn't have much time to think about the puzzle. Although I didn't have high expectations, I still asked just in case.
The result was as expected, both of them shook their heads.
"…Then why are you looking for me to look for other clues?"
I was not idle either. I circled around and tried to look for it, but halfway through I received news from Hill and Satasia, or to be more precise, good news.
According to feedback from Hill, after the opening of the Barena Bunker yesterday, almost all fire-resistant potions on the market showed an upward trend to varying degrees.
The big guilds and studios that sold the recipes because of the Barena Bunker entrance copy cried out that they were cheated, and some even wrote long articles on the forum to accuse the official designers of harming the interests of the players.
Among these potions, the rising trend of the Fire Demon Potion is the most obvious. Its price has increased seven or eight times compared to the initial lack of demand. The revenue from yesterday alone reached more than 150 gold coins.
Although the profit in Satasia was not that huge, I still earned thirty or forty gold coins a day.
The popularity of the former Barron's Bunker will obviously continue for some time, and it will probably take about a week for the guilds in Undercity to get enough fluorescent lanterns for their daily development, which means that the gold coins they can get are at least thousands.
No wonder they say the most profitable business opportunities are written in the criminal law. This kind of monopolistic seller market dumping is like the key to open Pandora's box. It's really... um... key...
and many more……
I closed the friend message in front of me, looked over the fence at the first floor, and suddenly an idea came to my mind, and I called back the two people who were still observing the surroundings in the distance.
"An An, did you find anything?"
I motioned for them to look down, "Look at the pattern on the first shelf and the colors of the books on the back shelves. Combined with the concept of a key, do you have any ideas?"
Ivan and Cecilia hadn't noticed it before, but now they looked carefully and realized that the other five rows of bookshelves were arranged in the order of the colors of the first row of bookshelves, rotating clockwise, like a key, as if slowly moving towards the final fit point of the lock and key.
Seeing the two people's sudden realization, I smiled slightly, reached out and turned the combined glass panel embedded in the groove.
Click, click——
Just like the sound of mechanical gears turning in an ancient clock, the central area of the first floor suddenly sank downwards, followed by a dazzling white light that engulfed us.
"Hey, have all the puzzles been solved? By the way, where is this place?"
"Like a lounge."
Hearing the voice next to my ear, I opened my eyes again and found that the scene around me had changed without me noticing.
Just as Cecilia said, the room looked like a lounge, with a luxurious carpet in the middle, birch floors, and mahogany furniture adding a lot of warm colors.
Although the books and paintings scattered on the floor seem a bit messy, they also make the whole room more warm.
Just as I was observing my surroundings, someone pulled the corner of my clothes, and Yiwen's voice came from the side, "An An, there is a beautiful sister over there."
Looking in the direction Yiwen pointed, I saw a tall, purple-haired girl concentrating on her painting in front of an easel not far away.
As if hearing the movement in the room, a quiet and elegant voice sounded softly, "Dear guest from afar, please wait a moment."
A few seconds after the words fell, the girl finished applying the last layer of paint with the brush in her hand, and stood up from her seat, revealing a delicate and elegant face.
"I guess you are the one who solved the mystery..."
But she was stunned before she could finish her words. Or rather, not only her, but I was also stunned.
But it was obvious that the reason she was stunned was not the same as mine. After a moment, she reacted and showed a look of surprise, "What cute little sisters! Can I draw a picture for you... No, no, everyone has to draw one... No, it takes several pictures..."
"Sorry, I'm so excited because I haven't seen children as cute as you in a long time. Can I hug you?"
At this moment, the purple-haired girl had completely lost her previous elegance and intelligence. She just kept talking to herself and before we could even react, she hugged the three of us in her arms.
But in fact, the other party was not as crazy as the group of lolita lovers in the monastery. He just let us go after a brief taste, revealing a happy look, "Great, I feel like I have a lot more inspiration~"
At this moment, I finally reacted and pointed at the other person in surprise.
"Wait, who are you and why do you look so much like Kasalia?"
Chapter 45 You two are definitely sisters
Yes, this is the reason why I was stunned before, because the face of the guy in front of me is almost exactly the same as Kasalia, just like twins. Before, I subconsciously thought that the pornographic book had come here.
It is obvious that Kasaria, whose real body is stored in the Demon King's Castle Library, could not possibly run so far, and judging from what we can see now, the difference between the two in terms of personality is extremely large.
Ivan and Cecilia looked over curiously, as if wondering why I reacted so strongly.
The purple-haired girl was more confused.
"Kasalia? I've never heard of this name."
I had forgotten that Casalia was just a pen name given to myself in a pornographic book, but when I looked at the face in front of me that looked exactly like Casalia, I suddenly thought of a possibility.
"Could it be that you are one of the remaining pages in the ancient library?"
"Hey, little sister, do you know the Eternal Library?"
This time the other party finally reacted, but what I never expected was that the answer she gave the next moment was so unexpected.
"But I'm not the Eternal Library. I'm her sister, the Eternal Gallery. We are twin sacred objects."
Twin holy relics?
It seems like I have never heard of this name in my previous life.
As if seeing my confusion, the purple-haired girl smiled and said, "It takes a lot of time to explain. Why don't I draw a picture for you and then we can talk slowly. Anyway, you can sit here for a while. The two little sisters next to you, please wait a moment. It will be your turn soon."
Obviously we didn't expect it at all.
The expressions on Ivan and Cecilia's faces clearly expressed this common idea.
But the two of them seemed to understand that since they only had a vague understanding of the situation, they couldn't say anything, so they sat obediently on the sofa next to them, looking like little babies ready to listen to a bedtime story.
Besides, there are a lot of snacks and desserts here.
I was also quite resistant to becoming a model, but it was obvious that if I didn't become a model, it would be difficult to learn more information from the other party.
I was very curious about this, so after a moment of hesitation I sat down on the soft chair in front of the other person's easel, acting as a temporary model while listening to the purple-haired girl's story.
According to the other party, the twin holy objects seem to be a special kind of holy objects. Although they are more powerful than ordinary holy objects, they are rarer, and can only exert their greatest power when they exist together.
Kasalia and she are twin holy objects called "Eternal", but because of the thousand-year wars and disasters that broke out in ancient times, they were separated from each other.
Not only that, their respective bodies also suffered serious damage, and even due to the disappearance of power, as time went by, the connection between them gradually faded, until now they could no longer sense each other's existence.
After listening to her explanation, I finally understood a little.
It turns out that this kind of twin holy objects are more powerful than holy objects. Although I could be considered a master in my previous life, I had not yet come into contact with such top-level equipment and props. It is understandable that I don’t know this situation.
When she learned that I had acquired the Eternal Library, Rotana seemed a little surprised and also very happy.
Yes, this guy was just as bored as Kasalia and gave himself a name. It is said that he is a famous painter in the Constantina Empire and has published many picture albums and picture collections.
Although I was somewhat curious, I was more concerned about the other party's previous mention of the damage to the main body.
"Could it be that you, Rotana, are also in a crippled state now?"
"Yes, little sister, if you can find all the fragments for me, I can contribute all my strength to you." Rotana smiled slightly, and as soon as she finished speaking, a task prompt appeared in front of me.
System: Do you accept the mission [Search for the Fragments of the Eternal Gallery]?
As expected, holy objects won’t be given to you so easily. If they are available, they will be incomplete or sealed.
And I was wondering why the puzzle was so similar to the one with Casalia at that time. It turned out to be the same as the situation with twins. I curled my lips and took on the task. After I took it on, Rotana also became my subordinate.
Long-standing Gallery [Incomplete]
Item description: A sacred object left over from the old days, it evolved from 349,100 ancient pictures. It combines the physical body of a truth seeker with the power of the gods, and records more than a thousand years of history until today.
Attributes: Holder's spirit +10%, strength +10%, constitution +20%, all element resistance +10%, will +10, insight +10, toughness +10
Additional Skills: Sketch of Everything [Records the current status and position of itself or other targets, and retraces them to the recording point after use, restoring all states including skill cooldown (except this skill), cooldown time: three natural days]
Eye of All-Seeing [According to the pictures stored in the painting, gain enhanced insight, which can be used to identify equipment, master various knowledge faster, and passive skills]
It has similar attribute bonuses to the Eternal Library, but compared to the latter's bonus to magic professions, the former is more biased towards physical professions.
More importantly, according to Rotana's description, the additional attributes of the twin relics can be superimposed, and one can possess the high attribute bonuses of both the Eternal Library and the Eternal Gallery at the same time. Unlike other relics, which will exclude each other and can only take effect on the additional attributes of one relic at most.
But in the final analysis, apart from himself, no one else would probably own multiple holy relics. After all, they were as rare as mythical equipment.
What surprised me the most was the skills attached to the Eternal Gallery. The ability to sketch everything is like having a second life. It can produce amazing effects at certain times, and it seems to be able to cooperate with Kasalia's skills.
This also made me understand the reason why the mage in the previous life was able to wipe out the Hundred Man Group. No one could know the power of a mage ranked in the top ten of the empire who could unleash it without restraint.
I was still looking at Rotana's attributes, but the other party finished the details of the painting in front of him in a short time. "It's already finished, do you want to take a look?"
Cecilia happened to be about to get up to get some snacks, and when she heard this she leaned over, just staring at the painting Rotana was drawing with a little curiosity.
"Why did you draw Ann without clothes?"
Ivan:!!!
I:? ? ?
I reacted immediately, ran to the side, and used my hand to block away a certain elementary school student who wanted to come over, and looked at the painting drawn by Rotana.
As Cecilia said, the self in the painting was indeed the same as before, but he was naked.
The skin is white with a rosy glow, and the slight and round undulations reveal a seductive pink pistil faintly under the cover of the arms. And there seems to be a mystery hidden between the tender legs that makes one's blood boil.
Just one look and my face turned red instantly.
“Cecilia, stop looking at it!” I covered the eyes of a hairy girl next to me who had no common sense with my other hand, and said angrily to Rotana, “Why did you draw something like this?”
And why can he imagine it in such detail?
"Hey, isn't this a kind of art? Besides, I really like the soft and cute bodies of children."
Rotana blinked, then took several albums signed by herself and flipped through them. All of the covers were of indescribable lolita girls. "Look, these are all drawn by me. Don't be fooled by this. Many people like them."
"..."
So your profession is a book artist?
The elder sister writes pornographic stories and the younger sister draws pornographic books. How can I complain about you two sisters?
"This painting is confiscated!"
I gritted my teeth and put the painting into my backpack. After thinking for a while, I snatched a few painting books from the other person's hand and said, "Confiscate these too. Don't let them teach the children bad things."
Yiwen, who was very depressed because his paintings were confiscated, couldn't help but curl his lips when he saw this, "An An obviously just wanted to see it herself... Awooo..."
Although the paintings were confiscated, Rotana did not give up. Instead, she turned her attention to Ivan and Cecilia.
Of course, Yiwen refused to agree no matter what, and kept saying that her body belonged to An An alone. As a result, he was hit in the head by my two consecutive attacks and had to crouch down to defend himself.
Cecilia didn't care.
Seeing that this fallen girl was about to become the victim of the illustrator's best-selling single volume because of a dessert, I, out of justice, immediately stepped in to stop this farce.
"Don't persecute innocent little girls, you bastard. I don't have time to wait here for you to draw a book. I'll have time to draw it for you slowly when we return to the Demon King's Castle. Besides, don't you want to see your sister too?"
"It seems so." Rotana nodded, but still didn't give up. "Are there any cute children there?"
"Just barely one."
