Chapter 478 - Miskatonic University

This was not the real Arkham, at least Gu Jun could confirm that, this was merely a world inside a book While he was at the restaurant, he tried to suurath and channel the Ancient Seal, they were all to no avail In this world, he could not gain contact with any supernatural power, he was bound by the power of words His strange behaviors were only remembered by Hannah She looked at him like he had really lost his mind

But now there was another question, where was Yu Chi, was he here too? Since Gu Jun, Dirty-minded Yu and the witch survived, Yu Chi probably did too Even though Arkham had a small populace, it was not that small On the way to Miskatonic University, Gu Jun saw more blocks and citizens Hannah had no idea how many characters in this world were nanize rew up here Hannah handed Gu Jun her phone, there was a long list of names in her contact list but when Gu Jun wanted to take a closer look, most of them faded away into a blur Clearly these people were not assigned a role in the play

Of the 7 people, one of them was the head librarian at Miskatonic University, Professor George Are He was a kind, amicable scholar over 60 He ell-read and well-loved, a popular character at the university At Massachusetts, the Arrandfather, Henry Are was also a former head librarian, and his father one of the university's board of directors Therefore, the Are family was closely related to the Miskatonic University's library The contribution this family had made to the library was unrivalled Normally, whenever he was at Arkham, Professor Arkham could be found at the library

When Hannah visited the library to check out the King in Yellow, Professor Are was there as well Apparently, he also picked the book up to read after Hannah left Gu Jun was cautious about this character, not only because George Arround, he was also the head librarian at the curious library He was not to be trifled with Eerie darkness shrouded the campus Miskatonic University sat on both sides of the river that cut through town The two cae The architectural style was very Early Victorian Grey spires stood in the campus and it looked rown alongside Arkham

The car drove down the campus road There were not that many students around Even if there were, they shuffled around like zombies This chilled Gu Jun Ever since they left the restaurant, there was no 'correction', it was as if they were supposed to coh a small forest, the car stopped at a carpark not far froave off weak light It casted a sense of graceful yet insidious atht

Gu Jun looked up at the library It was not as large as Pnakotus but it had its own unique flavor The church-like building was 3 storeys tall Its dome reached into the sky The library was incredibly well-lit It was only 9 p revision Furtherht on weekends The library was a quiet place, it was ruled by silence But strangely enough, while Gu Jun could not hear any sound fro with auditory sti barking that appeared to come from everywhere

"Can you hear the barks?" Gu Jun asked Hannah who got down fros

"Of course," Hannah nodded casually, "There're dogs everywhere The university keeps them, they're strays and quite ferocious"

Gu Jun looked around "Looks like we're at the right place" Hannah walked towards the library entrance Gu Jun followed behind her They walked up a long stone staircase Before entry, they had to show that they were the university's students and alu anything At the first floor lobby, there were e tables The students sat around them Some read, others worked on their laptops… these were all hardworking students The bookshelves lined the four walls, so They were stocked full with books, treasure troves of knowledge However, as Gu Jun walked past the tables, he glanced at the books and notes that opened before the students

The students were all rapt in studies but the pages were all ee to another These were just props…

Gu Jun was overwhelmed by annoyance 'Even if they're just props, shouldn't they at least contain soht that, the pages started to surface with blurry characters They wiggled like worms Whenever Gu Jun tried to focus on theible blur

"You'll see what you want to see but only to a certain li

Was the professor at the library? Even though he was the head librarian, he did not live at the library Regardless, Hannah led Gu Jun past the lobby and up the second floor The place had lesser tables butto their value The higher you climbed up the library, the rarer the books you would encounter The rarest and collector's books were kept on the 3rd floor which was guarded Previously the King in Yelloas stored on the 2nd floor

Gu Jun was on alert as hehis sister He had never fully trusted Hannah and he did not plan to allow hiuided by her forever

Ever since they left the restaurant, they had not challenged the script With a sudden desire, Gu Jun leaped towards a shelf that lined the wall His hands reached round The books tues were also startlingly empty

At the sa closer It sounded more ravenous than before…
