The elevator door on the first floor of the Quest Library slowly opened.

Insufficient lighting, outlines two figures one after the other.

The man walking in front was wearing a gray trench coat and under a fedora of the same color, the mist was gently swirling on his face, and at the position between his eyes, a little star with constant light was shining.

The newly emerged Queen-level custom mask, many people call it "Mr. Mist", but few people know that the mask's real name is "Sea of ​​Shimmering Light".

After seeing the custom-made Queen-level masks, the "first enforcers" who wore red masks and were in charge of guarding the library were obviously more respectful than before.

They tapped their leather shoes in front of the elite explorer and made a sound of standing up straight to show their respect for this senior.

Following behind the "Sea of ​​Shimmering Light" is a woman wearing a "Silver Shadow Fox" mask.

The silver shadow fox is not too rare a mask, it symbolizes the holder's ghostly agility, and the official occupation may be "acrobat" or "principal dancer" of the dance company.

It is a less noticeable mask in the Queen class.

The woman was slender, with a pair of eyes under the mask with a hint of hope, which caused a executor to look slightly sideways.

"I didn't expect you to be a explorer too." After passing the guard, Sean joked behind him.

Alicia Pompeii sighed: "I said it -- it's just a fake identity Merlin gave me."

If Alicia is really a explorer, her mask will never be the "silver fox" with agile body and a ghostly temperament.

Belonging to the function of "chess player" is a dark copper-colored, rather solemn mask.

"Don't think about taking a part-time job?" After the test of Ocean City, the two were already quite familiar with each other, and they would joke around from time to time.

"Come on—I'm busy enough with the company's affairs."

Alicia doesn't hate the career of the explorer, but now, as the director of Daedalus in Ocean City, she is unlikely to embark on this path.

When no one was paying attention, the two quietly walked into the old book cemetery.

Unlike the previous encounters with explorers, the old book cemetery this time seemed quite quiet.

The dilapidated flag of the former city library site drooped feebly in the light from the patio.

Looking at the old book cemetery that looked like a ruin, Alicia frowned: "He lives here?"

"Yeah." Sean nodded and led the female chess player into the ruins.

——Not that he and Arthur Merlin were unwilling to move Edvar Pompeii elsewhere.

Just because his identity is very sensitive to the divine court, any exposure may lead to unavoidable disasters.

It is safer to hide under the graveyard of old books that no one knows about.

Like a dangerous but stable lesion, it is not dangerous to not touch it.

During the process of leading Alicia down, Sean noticed that the old library was slightly different from before.

"It's become more... emptier." Shawn frowned as he walked in front with the spirit substance carrying two flashlights.

It shouldn't be so empty and lonely.

Sean clearly remembered that there were several monsters that once frightened him.

For example, the weeping student, and the epiphany scholar...

"Where did they go?"

Reminiscent of Arthur Merlin's warning, Sean also had an ominous premonition in his heart.

In the darkness, he turned his head, and the light outlined his profile: "Alicia, remember Merlin reminded me that he had a bad premonition...?"

The female chess player replied affirmatively.

"There might really be something going on here, we have to be careful."

Alicia's hand clenched slightly - she began to worry about her grandfather's safety.

Anxiety spreads like darkness.

She finally got the news of her grandfather, but in the end she still couldn't see him... This possibility made her feel a little scared.

Knowing that the female chess player was anxious, Sean quickened his pace.

Fortunately, the terrain in the old book cemetery has not changed much, and Sean walked through it with ease, and soon reached the second underground floor of the old site.

Walking towards the familiar hidden space, Sean's heart suddenly felt relieved——

He saw the room in front of him emitting a calming light.

It is the "Lamp of Truth" of Pompeii.

Sean and Alicia walked quickly into the brightly lit room.

They saw an old figure, prostrate on a worn wooden table, reading something by the light.

"grandfather!"

Hearing the voices that appeared in his dreams countless times, Edvar put down the glasses with one broken lens in his hand, turned his face in shock, his cloudy eyes widened.

Alicia had taken off the silver fox mask, and the light illuminated her wrinkled face, tears like broken pearls.

"Ellie... Ellie!" Sean couldn't even tell whether Edvard was sane or insane. He stood up with some difficulty, staggered a few steps, and hugged his granddaughter.

"Grandpa..." This is the first time Sean has seen a proud female chess player cry like this, crying like a wronged little girl, "We've been looking for you for a long time...

"Why are you here?"

Edvard was obviously thinner, and his cloudy eyes kept scanning Alicia's face - such a real existence, let the old man know that he was not dreaming.

The surprised look also let Sean know that Edvar Pompeii was sober at this time.

"Grandpa can only hide here, this is the safest..."

The old man looked at Sean behind Alicia and pursed his lips, with endless gratitude in his eyes——

Sean, you really brought my little Ellie.

"Grandpa, it's not very safe here." Alicia wiped the tears from her face and took Pompeii's hand, "Let's talk in another place.

"I brought something with me that can take you out of this underground without being discovered by anything..."

Pompeii waved his hand and sat down.

Alicia, who was still in tears, glanced at Sean, who also had a surprised expression on his face.

Pompeii doesn't want to leave here?

With a relieved and indifferent smile on his face, Edvar waved his hand and called the two young people to come closer.

He slowly pulled open the rag robe, revealing the left collarbone.

At a glance, Sean and Alicia took a step back in shock at the same time.

Sean saw that in the position of Pompeii's collarbone, there was a pulsating and green fluorescent deformity parasitic.

It beats slightly, like a heart outside the body, and every time it beats, it makes the green light stronger for a moment.

And that green, Sean was very familiar with it.

"Dan, Epiphany Scholar?" Sean opened his eyes wide in surprise, and his eyes were full of aurora-like green.

Edvard nodded slowly: "That brain-like monster suddenly went crazy a while ago...

"I have a premonition that Little Ellie may be coming... In order to protect the books sealed here, in order to see her, I have no other choice but to choose to use an ancient spell to confine it to my body ...

Sean's heart is full of bitterness.

What he never expected was that, when he returned to the New Testament on the Silver Star cruise ship with peace of mind, in the underground of the old book cemetery thousands of kilometers away, the Epiphany Scholar would be upgraded because of Kluvitan's completion.

Sean could almost see the situation at that time - the Epiphany Scholar, after its god's ascension, its strength soared, swallowing other existences in the old book graveyard, and approaching Edvard.

And the lonely old man, in order to last a while longer, could only choose to use his body as a container to seal that terrifying monster.

He suffers every day just to see one last time.

"This..." Alicia opened her eyes wide, her green eyes full of disbelief, "There must be a solution, I have a bit of gold, I can reverse..."

Edvard's face was very calm, and he shook his head: "This is... an old master, a present child."

"After maturity, there will be a spokesman for the gods.

"Now, it's me, I'm it...even if Keane is here, it's impossible to separate it from me.

"No, Grandpa, this can't be done!" Alicia took the old man's arm.

Although very weak, his fingers were still strong and he held his granddaughter's hand, Edvar said firmly: "Accept it, Ellie!

"No matter what fate it is, accept it!"

Then, the old man's eyes softened: "What's more, God is merciful...and let our grandfather and grandson meet once."

Edvard caressed Alicia's face, like a dry branch passing through the pattering spring rain.

"You have grown up and become more beautiful." The old man smiled, "Also, you are still so sensible..."

Alicia was speechless for a moment, and Sean frowned tightly and fell into grief.

The old man turned to Sean, those eyes with turbid edges seemed to be able to see everything: "It seems that you not only awakened Bingzhuren, but also obtained that person's inheritance...

"Sure enough, our meeting was arranged by God."

Seize perhaps the last chance~lightnovelpub.net~ Sean asked, "Mr. Pompeii, the truth about book clubs and history..."

Pompeii raised a hand gently and said, "History's answer lies in history—

He raised his head, his eyes were calm: "If one day, you can purify the library in the labyrinth...

"You will know the truth of the matter."

Sean already got the answer he wanted and nodded heavily.

"It's almost time..." Edvar tried to stand up, but his strength was obviously not enough. Sean and Alicia quickly helped them up. "There is no need to continue to hold on."

"I'm going to do what I need to do." Gently getting rid of the support of the two young people, Edvar picked up the oil lamp and slowly walked towards the front...
