Library

Location: Atlantis

Time: 3:32pm

This was the library?

After Restua had left, I felt like inspecting this library hidden inside the maze, since this was the first time I’ve been here

Uhh… how should I describe this, I felt this place didn’t quite look like a library—the sound of the water gurgling past could be thought as an apparition or evenplayed Andout of place There was a huge coiling tree standing in the middle of the library; I couldn’t pretendconvulsion

There were no bookshelves all typical libraries should have, nor was there any place where books can be placed Inside this large space, the ceiling and the edge of the library could not be seen There was only a huge thousand year old tree Unlike the coe tree I don’t recognize The tree pierced through the sky, and I couldn’t see the top of the tree What htly transparent crystal green, and I can vaguely see the tiny water veins pu water up the tree trunk

There was a white staircase circling up the tree trunk, with roof covers, and there were also people walking up and down Lots of Spanishas a curtain With just one look at it, one can see this tree have existed for a long time

The surrounding air was very fresh, because we are in the forest, right…?

…Where did this forest co to the library?

“Yang Yang, this should be your first ti onto the white based, golden edged, thick book, Chifuyu looked at me, as completely stunned, and he smiled with confidence

I nodded arden, right?

I even saw a person holding onto a book while sitting on a swing es while attentively reading the book

This place really is the library There’s no ht? But ere there were no bookshelves for people to search for books?

There were several pavilions, two-storey rooe tree And inside, there were comfortable seats prepared There were people who ca onto a book, and directly went in there to find a place to quietly read their book Other than the natural sound of water, birds singing, and also the fresh air in the surrounding area, everything seemed to be very peaceful and quiet There were even some people who fell asleep on their seats just like that

It felt like an extremely wonderful resort, and it even co one to relax and unwind oneself

“Welcome to the library” A voice drifted over from behindbehind ain, was there someone behind me earlier?

There was a child of about seven or eight years old I couldn’t deterirl or a boy, however, I was able to confirm in one second was he or she was not hu child with suspicious fur on his head and a furry tail behind his back, one would definitely have the sa a blue japanese styled ki his head look even smaller and his ears more prominent, “I’m the librarian here, Acker Lily If you have any questions regarding the library, I can help you out” He blinked his golden kitty eyes while as he said happily, and constantly wagged his tail

The name sounded like a name for a little boy, “Uhh, little boy…”

Before I could finish irl”

Yeah?

“And Lily is at least three hundred years old” Chifuyu added this sentence in passing

Turns out she was an old woman

“Hateful, how could you guys so casually reveal soe” The kitty child held onto her face and twisted her little body shyly Then, she hit Ryan’s thigh (because her height was only up to his thigh), “A girl’s age is a secret”

“That’s no longer true for you since a very long ti a bucket of cold water

“Little kid froing her expression, Lily snorted and glared at hiolden eyes

“Right, right, since everyone says that anyway” Chifuyu, who didn’t seem to care about it, turned around and then he passed the book he was holding to Ryan, “Yang Yang, since you are already here, want to take a look at the library?”

Honestly, I still don’t understand how this place was library In arden

“Of course!”

When I started walking up the stairs, it was only then that I found out this place was actually very spacious, and abundant with people

Not tothat looked like bubbles floating inout, was also scattered with several seats Almost all the seats were already taken by the students, soer, and also there were also those ere older I think these are all students frorades

“You ht?” Chifuyu took me up the stairs for a certain distance before he halted At one side of the tree there was a hole, a rather big hole, the kind of size able to fit a baby inside Basically, while ere going up the stairs, every once in a while I’ll see this type of hole, so in front of it while some did not And I certainly don’t know the reason why those people were standing in front of those holes

“Nn” I looked at the hole in the tree; no matter how I look at it, I still don’t knoas it for

“You’ve heard of a Wisdoht”

I do know of this, this terht novel before

“This is the Wisdom Tree” Ryan patted the side of the tree and said

“Ah?” Lies!

“Your expression is really weird” Narrowing his eyes, Chifuyu then pushed back his glasses and continue saying, “The Wisdoh another dimensional space and reaches out to the entire world As long as it’s a book you can think of, you can find it in the Wisdom Tree”

I was surprised as I stared at the tree that pierced through the sky, with a type of

Chifuyu put his hand at the side of the tree and closed his eyes After a few seconds, I heard a loud thud A thick black cover book appeared inside the hole in the tree, on top, was a few large words I couldn’t read, “You just have to think about the thing you want to search for in your mind, and the Wisdom Tree will help you to analyze and find the book most suitable for you And if the area of the search is relatively large, then there will be several books at once” Taking out the black book, Chifuyu continued, “Remember to return the books after you are done with it, or else you will receive… retribution”

“… I understand” I didn’t really want to ask what the retribution was In short, I’ll just have to return the book like a good boy and then everything will be fine

“Since Yang Yang is already here, I guess we’ll just analyze senior’s teleportation charm here, if there are any problems, it’ll also be more convenient to ilanced at me, I immediately nodded quickly In short, it would be for the best if there was someone who could help me out, or else if I had to look for it alone, I’ll probably search until I drop then, and I still wouldn’t be able to find anything

After walking down the stairs, Ryan, as one step ahead of us, found an empty Chinese-styled pavilion On the first floor, there were a few fe their books While the second floor was empty, on top was a low table and earthen chairs On both sides were small cupboards where pens, papers, and some necessary tools were placed there; this was extremely well prepared

Placing the thick book in his hands onto the table, Chifuyu dragged a few soft pillows over and threw one at ht, did you sketch out the shape of the teleportation array?”

Shape of the teleportation array?

“Ah!” The five-coloured rooster head sketched it

I handed the notebook to him, and at the same time, I also passed him senior’s teleportation charm

On one side, it see to participate in our discussion He was holding on to a book and was in the lanced at the book title… Incantation Arrays for Beginners? What kind of strange book is that?!

Wait a moment, wasn’t Ryan qualified as a robe level?

Chifuyu opened the book to a certain page, and after noticing what I was looking at, he explained, “Ryan is only strong in using illusionary weapons, but fails in other areas”

Uhh… that’s really miserable

On the page Chifuyu turned to, there was a reduced size of a diagrahty percent similar to senior’s, “This is the basic teleportation array After fa with it, many people would make use of this as a base and will add in extra ave you also falls in this category” He took out the notebook to allow me to compare

Indeed, there were only a few parts were different The diagram on the book was very clear, but due to the five-coloured rooster head only sketching out an approximate, I couldn’t immediately make out the modified parts

“The teleportation array will remain there for about ten seconds when it’s in an idle state, but when I saw yours, the duration of its appearance was even shorter I think it’safter you during a fight Senior had slightly adjusted the ti In an idle state, it would appear for only a few seconds” Chifuyu placed the teleportation charhtly tapped it with his fingertip, “Teleportation Charnant at the place where er points”

A faint light shot out froertip and expanded outwards In about a thirty centimeter radius, a reduced size of the teleportation array was slowly rotating on top of the table “This is the basic array for the light and shadow incantation There are also contracts with the Water Elf and Earth Elf within” With a pen and paper on one hand, Chifuyu raised his idle left hand and quickly drew the complete teleportation array on the white paper

Inside was mixed with a lot of totems and text I couldn’t read It was several times more detailed compared to what the five-coloured rooster head had drawn

The s, and I took this opportunity to coh, there were lots of differences, but the main lines were very similar

“The ti the protection of earth and water This is a type of teleportation array are prepared for a battle” After two ht array immediately disappeared And on the white paper, there was the exact sae is very wide He can actuallythe senior whom he worshi+ped

“Yang Yang, you can first try toone time on the notebook, “Basic teleportation array is draith the basic light and earth elements Look here, this symbol here is the earth element’s symbol…”

So to say, it’s rather easy to draw the basic array It was quickly completed, because the lines weren’t so complicated, and there weren’t too many lines So after Chifuyu’s detailed explanations, I could approxira an oracle bone script

Finding a coic Array wasn’t actually very difficult to learn

However, there was another question that caht, how do you keep this array in a charuess it can’t be that one would need to directly draw it on the charht? The charnifying glass to draw?

“It’s very simple, most of the arrays can be kept this way, but there’s no other way for the larger arrays” Chifuyu took out a chalk-like object from his backpack He cleared up a small empty space nearby, lay on the floor, and quickly drew up a basic teleportation array
