The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v2 Chapter 696: Another "Secret Explorer"

Tesler's figure disappeared into the fog among the rows of bookcases. He will encounter his own challenges in the process of searching for books.

If he can break through his fear, solve the puzzles in the dense fog, and find the book that is connected to him, he will successfully join the reading club.

While waiting, Sean really wanted to break the silence, and asked the two people around him a few questions that had been lingering in his mind: for example, who were the holders of the other two elder keys.

The previous owner of the Lunar Key was Edgar Pompey, teacher of one of the Six Saints and father of the head of the Daedalus Foundation.

If even people like Arthur and Alicia failed to hold the other two elder keys, it would be hard for Sean to imagine what kind of person stood at the top of the reading club.

In addition, he could vaguely perceive the meaning of the existence of the Book Club, the secret meaning. However, he still wanted to have an in-depth discussion with the two in front of him.

It wasn't until he saw Arthur's eyes in the light that his slightly turbulent heart calmed down. He realized that, sooner or later, fate would reveal everything to him.

It's like meeting him with his candle holder. Instead of letting those hidden meanings be reduced to plain language, let it brew in silence.

Suddenly, Sean felt relieved. He gently held his moon key, feeling the tranquility of sharing with the candle holders and fellow readers.

The power to change history lies in this silence. There was an abnormal sound coming from the depths of the library. It seemed that a huge monster overturned the densely packed bookcases and chased the people trapped in the maze—Tesler was in trouble.

However, the three readers present and their candle holders can only observe everything quietly and must not interfere with the book search ceremony.

Lightning suddenly appeared. Sean couldn't help but look into the darkness. Presumably Tesler unleashed his lightning in a bottle again.

A portable version of the Tesler Coil was activated in Ocean City. Soon after, the raised dust and smoke began to fall, and the scattered pages of the book were flying like snow in the darkness. The sound of calm footsteps came from the depths, and the thin Nicola Tesler walked out of the darkness with a book.

His expression was calm, as if he really just checked out a book from an ordinary library.

"Can you imagine?" In his hand was a book with a dark green cover,

"When you were looking for "The Castle", how did you feel when a huge beetle appeared next to you?"

"Did you burn that beetle?"

"If it doesn't burn, my arm will be gone." Leng could see through the light that Tesler was holding Franz Kafka's "The Castle" in his hand.

"One?" Sean was a little surprised. After all, he had chosen the "Returning Journey Scroll" that contained Gainor's divine feather.

In his eyes, searching for books is a rare opportunity to specialize in ancient books. But think about it carefully, as a non-explorer, choose a book like that

"Dangerous" books are tantamount to getting angry. It's definitely wise to pick a book that doesn't have too many anomalies.

"This is my favorite book." Tesler's eyes were soft, his fingers brushed over the cover,

"When I read it, I felt like I was reliving a dream I had before. The feeling of absurdity and powerlessness was exactly the same as my dream.

"Besides, you can't pick a book on engineering or electricity..."

"A good choice." Arthur seemed to have seen something in that book,

"A book full of metaphors and without an end...

"It comes from the hands of non-explorers, but it almost has a strong mystical meaning. You can read it repeatedly, which will help you improve your concentration and even your soul concentration. However, you must not go too deep in the maze of words , so as not to let the soul get lost..." Xiao Xiaon suddenly understood something again, or in other words, the wisdom he gained in the previous comprehension awakened some in the soul of this world: creations made by non-questioners may also Possesses a mystery that even the explorers cannot bestow.

Kafka's texts, Stravinsky's symphonies, Dali's paintings... These masters may not be involved in the mystical industry, but their works may even inspire mystics.

Or, as Capstone Scholars are scientific

Like "Searchers", master human beings travel through the city of art, trying to escape all kinds of fears that disturb the spirit and the attacks of real life. Wearing masks, they finally found the treasures that belong to all mankind... "The Castle" is like a novel black dream.

Temperament is so close to Tesler. Picking up the study pendant that he had prepared before, Sean hung it around Tesler's neck.

"Don't wear it if it's not necessary," Sean instructed. tormented

"Come on." He called out to all readers and candle holders. They got closer, gathered under the light, and chanted in unison: "We, read. We read in the sun, we read in the moonlight. If necessary, we will open the book by candlelight. The thoughts passed down by the sages, warn future generations The history and skills that have been handed down for thousands of years. Carved on stone pillars, printed in books, hidden in the belly of fish. And for us, reading - there will be a junction point between history and the future. At this junction point, the most intelligent thing to do is to read. Welcoming the future, learning from the past and knowing the present, let us forget the pain in the world. Human beings have never died: for thousands of years, we will live forever, just because our thoughts survive in books. Let this fire continue, and let the light of intellect and reason shine. Brighten the ancient and ignorant night sky...My friend, listen to me! There is only one way to step into the light—read in the sun, read in the moonlight. If necessary, we will open the book by candlelight... Let us, read." The voice ended. .

A tacit silence filled the room, like a lamp illuminating these young faces. Friends meet for dinner.

In the time before dinner, Tesler found Sean. On the street at the foot of the building, Tesler asked: "Sean, did you return to the Labyrinth Island?" It was too weak before, and going to the Labyrinth Island would only increase the pressure, and it would be of no benefit, so Sean will pay attention to this important legacy. Exploration is on hold.

He replied truthfully: "I haven't been in since I left Ocean City—but, I plan to go in recently..." He thought about the appropriate words,

"Sort it up~lightnovelpub.net~ Tesler nodded again and again. He sorted out his language and said, "Actually, there is one thing I want to ask you. "

"What's the matter?" The most outstanding inventor in the world was smoking, and he blew out a puff of smoke: "Do you remember the mud?"

"Of course I remember." Sean met Tesler when he was trapped in the labyrinth island. There is an extremely ugly, aborigine of Maze Island who lives up to his name and helps Tesler.

Unfortunately, the mud finally fell into the abyss in order to save them.

"I've been dreaming a lot lately, dreaming of that abyss...

"I heard the sound of mud coming from that abyss." Tesler's eyes were not without sadness,

"He wanted to get out of there.

"Maybe it's a bit difficult, after all, it's so deep in there... But if you can do it, please promise me?

"Please find Mud's body and bury him." Long
