She came later.
In relationships, there is a first come, first served order, and it is difficult for latecomers to shake the position of those who came first.
Although the editor uncle spoke every word to himself, he was always paying attention to the attitude and reaction of Wuming Gui.
They have also been together longer and have a better understanding of each other. They can know what the other is thinking with just a glance. In this respect, she is more than ten years behind. Of course, she is very unwilling to accept this, but she has no choice but to acknowledge her failure in this regard.
Wuminggui's hugging the editor right away must have been a deliberate show-off. She probably wanted to demonstrate her sovereignty.
Although Elise didn't want to think of the other party as too insidious, she knew very well that she would do the same if she were in his place.
If she could just give up on the editor uncle, she would be able to relax, but she knew that she couldn't give up.
She was already pitiful and had nothing, so of course she had to try her best to grab the few remaining supports and pillars.
She thought, perhaps the same was true for Amamiya Mahiru.
The good news is that neither party has ever come into contact with the real destiny editor in reality, so they can still be patient for a while.
Otherwise, you will have no chance of winning!
So the conclusion is...
Falling behind, but there is still a chance to catch up.
They are not lovers.
Thinking of this, Elise suddenly felt much more relaxed. She regarded the editor as an uncle, but she also didn't want to call Wuming Ghost "stepmother".
After the appearance of this beautiful Japanese girl, the vague feeling suddenly became so strong that she couldn't tell what kind of emotion was urging her to do something.
After thinking it through, Elise regained her composure, sorted out her chaotic thoughts, and her snake-like hair turned into long straight black hair. She took the initiative to extend her hand to the two of them.
"The Gorgon Witch is new here, please take care of me!"
Look at the other person's refreshing smile.
Amemiya Mahiru held the other person's hand, smiled and said "Please give me your advice", thinking to herself... It seems that girls of the same type as me, look simple, but are not simple at all in their hearts... Humph, a scheming bitch!
Chapter 300 A Relaxing and Pleasant Journey
Bai Yu asked, "Have you ever played video games?"
"what is that?"
"I've heard of it."
The one who said he had heard of it was Amamiya Mahiru, while the one who said he had never heard of it was Elysee.
From this we can see that the timelines of the two people's existence are not the same.
The fact that Amemiya Mahiru had heard of video games proved that her era was relatively close to Bai Yu's.
Bai Yu thought for a moment about how to explain it, then gathered his words and said, "The 'Library of Truth' we're in now is a unique space. You can think of it as a stage play."
"A stage play?" Elyse paused. "So what you mean?"
"It's incredibly close to reality." Bai Yu raised a finger: "Except for one thing..."
"Which point?" Elysee asked.
Bai Yu smiled but said nothing.
Amamiya Mahiru spoke softly, "Ahem...it seems we don't have much time left to chat, Mr. Destiny. Some of the residents here are here to welcome us, the uninvited guests."
Bai Yu quickly unsheathed his spear and said, "Well, rather than explaining it slowly, why not take the initiative to explore the area? After all, this is my first time here, so be careful. The enemies here are quite skilled."
The strange sound was getting closer and closer. Upon closer inspection, I found that it was a walking knight's armor. Some strange translucent limbs seeped out of the armor, like zombies possessed by something.
Elise immediately grasped the magic book in her hand.
"Leave it to us first." Amamiya Mahiru reminded him, "We are not familiar with each other's fighting rhythm and methods yet. To avoid accidental injuries, it is best not to rush in all at once."
Elise realized that she had to obey at this time. After all, she was still a newcomer. Faced with the reminders and education of her seniors in the workplace, she had to endure it even if she was unhappy.
The next moment, the knight in armor roared and charged forward. His silver armor was vibrating, and he brandished his two-handed sword, unleashing a magical power comparable to that of a high-level magician.
When——!
The moment the knight's heavy sword was chopped down, it was caught by a long spear, and the aftermath of the collision spread out in a circular shape.
Bai Yu lightly lifted his foot and pressed the knight's heavy sword into the ground, forcing the knight, whose hands were tied tightly in the armor, to lower his head.
Immediately, Amemiya Mahiru flew forward and swung his sword continuously. A series of electric sparks burst out on the armor, leaving white marks, but they were obviously scrapings.
She decisively jumped over the opponent's head and came to his back. She found the gap in the armor and swung out her sword. The three-foot-long blade flew past and the knight's armored head fell to the ground.
The spirit inside it let out a sharp cry, and directly abandoned its armor, jumping towards Amemiya Mahiru's cheek like a facehugger. Before she moved, she caught a glimpse of Bai Yu raising his right hand, and immediately leaned back. In less than 0.5 seconds, the Lionheart Spear pierced through the spirit's body and flew past her eyebrows.
The Lionheart Spear pierced into the wall, and the spirit exploded with a sound.
Bai Yu stretched out his hand to the girl, and Amamiya Mahiru easily grabbed her wrist and stood up again.
Elise, standing in the third-person perspective, saw it very clearly... She thought that the cooperation between the two was perfect. It took only two rounds to kill the knight armor. This tacit understanding was indeed the result of fighting side by side many times.
She once again felt the fact that the bond between the two was higher than that between herself and the editor.
"This is the first time I've seen this kind of monster." Bai Yu squatted down and picked up the empty armor.
"It seems the main body is the spirit inside, and the armor is just its outer shell, just like a hermit crab." Amamiya Mahiru stroked the Quick Rain Blade. "The outer shell is very hard, and the gaps are relatively small."
"After all, the Library of Truth is a Western-style mystical system, and it's likely that it uses magic." Bai Yu shook his head. "Unfortunately, I don't have a deep understanding of this."
Elise finally found an opportunity to interrupt. Having read a lot of books, she made a judgment: "I don't know much about Eastern mystical systems, but this armor is probably a kind of undead combination. Normal undead cannot exert their full power, so they will inhabit certain objects and combine with them, creating a cursed creation."
She frowned slightly. "But be careful. If you get hurt, your soul might be cursed by the dead. If your soul is damaged, it will be very troublesome."
Bai Yu nodded: "It's normal to have negative attributes. After all, this is a relatively high-level dungeon."
Amamiya Mahiru added, "There are a few more in the southwest and southeast directions."
"Let's deal with it. Let's kill monsters and explore the terrain at the same time."
Bai Yu glanced at the upper left corner of his sight. The map had been opened, but most of it was covered in fog of war. He did not deliberately pursue 100% exploration, but a little more exploration was always a good thing so that he could get a glimpse of the whole picture.
With his order, the three began their advance.
Amamiya Mahiru gently reminded Elyse, "You don't seem to have much combat experience. If you feel scared, you can adapt first."
"...Don't underestimate me!" Elise was like a cat whose tail was stepped on.
She really wanted to argue that she was very good at driving a Tata!
However, this lie simply couldn't work before these two people.
"Ms. Wuming, I am also a second-level magician. Please don't underestimate me!"
Elise was unwilling to be a vase from the bottom of her heart. She was so competitive that she completely regarded Amamiya Mahiru's well-intentioned reminder as sarcasm.
"Uncut jade, uncut jade becomes useless... You have to go through it before you can gradually adapt." Bai Yu said meaningfully, "Newcomers also have to slowly learn to get used to it."
Mahiru Amemiya glanced at Mr. Destiny's evil smile and sighed slightly in her heart. It was not that her sister wanted to harm her on purpose, but that Mr. Destiny had an evil taste again.
Although Mr. is a gentle and kind person, he can be quite cruel sometimes, and would even say something outrageous like, "What's wrong with liking to see girls with horse ears on their heads cry?"
...It's not that I didn't tell you in advance, it's that you insisted on delivering it.
...If you get scared and cry later, don’t blame me for not telling you in advance.
The three of them walked through the maze-like bookshelves, slowing down their pace, and soon found two wandering knights' armor.
This place is not an open space. The library's bookshelves are very high, equivalent to separate alleys. The narrow space requires even more coordination.
This battle lasted about fifty seconds.
Thirty seconds of that were wasted on the early encirclement and positioning.
When a rolling helmet landed at her feet, Elyse realized that the battle was over.
She didn't feel anything. Even though it was her first time in actual combat, she felt incredibly relaxed. Was that all? Was it really that easy?
She didn't quite understand. She had made a lot of mental preparations, but it was over in just over ten seconds.
The process is actually very simple. Elysee uses long-range magic to release five lightning whips to attract attention, uses the conductive properties of metal to force the spirit body out, and then leaves it to Bai Yu and Mahiru Amamiya to solve it.
It's very simple and there's no pressure at all.
Elyse immediately felt that she could do it, but soon realized that it was not because of her own strength, but because the combined strength of the three of them was too exaggerated.
Although it was only a very rough cooperation and there was no effective tactics, three against two was an advantage. Even two second-level undead combinations were basically just food.
If she had come alone, she would undoubtedly have been chased all over the place by the two armored knights. She could only run away or kite them. Her lack of combat experience and the fragile body of a mage made it impossible for her to withstand even the slightest loss. She would be crippled by a single sword strike.
The three of them working together not only allowed her to focus on one point, but also shared the risk.
No wonder mages usually team up with knights, such a battle team is really easy.
The two subsequent encounters further confirmed this for her.
There are more than just armored knights in the library. There are also different types of monsters, such as administrators holding candles, and books floating in the air that can release magic.
I was caught off guard both times, but was eventually able to resolve the situation easily.
She didn't even have time to gather her magic before the enemy fell to the ground with a flick of the knife.
This made her feel like she was just paddling, but it made her feel really safe.
Elyse's originally nervous heart unconsciously relaxed, and she felt as relaxed and comfortable as if she was going on a long journey.
The little girl obviously didn't realize what she was going to experience next.
Chapter 301: Happy Team Destruction
"Let's rest for a while."
The exploration took about three hours.
After killing many monsters along the way, Bai Yu returned to the original starting point according to the map. The starting point is usually the safest.
He also had the opportunity to review his recent gains.
Although it was Elise's first time exploring the dungeon, it seemed very easy. After all, she was a mage and did not need to be on guard around.
Amemiya Mahiru was also completely used to it. It was the first time for her to see the scenery of a foreign country and fight monsters of different shapes. All her fatigue was suppressed by the novelty.
After sitting down, the two realized that they were indeed a little tired.
"The Library of Truth, could it be that Library of Truth?"
After walking around for a few times, Elise remembered a record in a book she had read before.
"What Library of Truth?" Seeing that Bai Yu didn't look up, Amemiya Mahiru took the initiative to ask.
After fighting side by side for more than three hours, their relationship suddenly became much closer. The best way to enhance feelings is to take a shit together or die together.
Of course, the relationship between good girlfriends can be fragile at any time, so don’t trust them too much... As long as no one is involved, they can barely do their best to be good to you and her.
"The Library of Truth in the Palace of Wisdom is rumored to contain knowledge from over a dozen centuries, including countless original texts." Elise rubbed her thigh as she spoke. "Many of the Forbidden Magical Books circulated from here as manuscripts or copies, but the most widespread rumor is about the 'Book of Truth.'"
Amamiya Mahiru hummed softly: "And then?"
"The Book of Truth records the truths of the world. Rumor has it that anyone who reads it will gain the truth." Elysee spread out her palm. "Rumor has it that there are five copies of the Book of Truth. Four of them have been taken back by God, and the last one is kept in the Library of Truth."
"Mari... is she very powerful?" asked Mahiru Amamiya in confusion.
"Don't you know the truth?" Elyse asked in surprise. "Possessing the truth is like possessing a portion of God's power. That's every mage's ultimate dream."
As the two were talking, they heard Bai Yu say calmly, "Truth is mystery—for most mages, the only way to obtain the truth is to step into the fifth level."
Amemiya Mahiru chuckled: "So that's how it is."
Elyse couldn't help but fantasize, "If this is really the Library of Truth, then if we find the Book of Truth, we can gain the truth with just a glance."
"I don't really need it." Amamiya Mahiru shook her head slightly. "Mr. Fate has given me a mystery, but I still can't fully utilize it."
Elyse stared blankly at the woman who made such explosive remarks in the most ordinary words.
are you joking?
Or are you showing off?
She couldn't help but ask, "What are you talking about?"
Amemiya Mahiru demonstrated it on the spot. She cut her finger and a trickle of blood dripped from the wound. She flicked her finger in the air and the drop of blood burst out in an instant with the sharp sound of a bullet cutting through the air.
