The Iron Ship Island of the Great Voyage

The librarian saw that it was Irene, so he didn't block even some restricted areas, and let the two of them hang out in it.

The second floor of the library is huge,

Raymond walked around half a circle before he got a general impression.

He always kept in mind the classics of "Nix Common Language", because that was the key to his interpretation of "Haynes' Death Note".

Finally, the two walked around for a long time, and Lei Meng saw that Irene's face was also tired,

He opened his mouth and asked tentatively: "Irene, are there any ancient books on the second floor related to ancient languages ​​and the history of ancient civilizations?"

"Yes, I have!"

Irene blinked, tilted her head and thought for a while: "Civilized languages ​​​​are a partial subject, and not many people borrow them. If I remember correctly...it seems to be on the bookshelf in the corner over there...Moore Civilization , Nix civilization, Kazakh civilization, Baron civilization..."

Sure enough!

Raymond was ecstatic.

But soon,

When he saw those classics, he was disappointed again.

Although this is basically an isolated classic from the Nix civilization period, Lei Meng flipped through it at random, and most of them were colored murals, black and white rubbings,

The amount of text is very small, and there is not much reference value at all.

These things are said to be books, but more like antiques.

......

Although of little value,

But Lei Meng still looked through those thick classics on a whim,

I don't know how long it took,

When he closed the last book of the "Nix Civilization" period,

with a long sigh,

after all,

He didn't find the general dictionary he wanted.

"Hey... where did Irene go?"

Raymond came back to his senses, but he didn't see Irene, and his vision was full of dense bookshelves.

The structure of the library is somewhat like a maze,

It just so happens that this corner is seldom visited by people.

Quiet and a little gloomy,

Make him feel sinister.

"This is troublesome. There is no 'Nix General Dictionary' on the second floor of the library. Is it possible that I can only go to Tianlan Wangdu to look for it?"

Raymond remembered that King Tianlan had clues to obtain the "Nix Common Language" dictionary,

But it was thousands of miles away from Philip's territory,

If you want to go to sea, you have to wait at least a year and a half.

"Forget it, just ask Irene when the time comes, maybe his father will have a private collection..."

Raymond was a little frustrated, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his mind, "Or... there is one in the third-floor secret room that Anna mentioned?"

......

Raymond just got up to leave,

The oil painting hanging on the wall next to the bookshelf immediately attracted his attention.

The color of the oil painting is cold and gray,

The background is a wall full of books,

It looks like a private library of a nobleman with a deep heritage.

Not far from the bookshelf is a fireplace made of red bricks.

The bonfire burns brightly,

gaze concentrated,

The bonfire seemed to be burning,

fiery charcoal,

The whole hearth burns red,

It's like trying to burn through the entire oil painting.

And the weirdest thing about the painting is,

Beside the fireplace, there was actually a gorgeous golden coffin inlaid with gems of various colors!

The coffin lid is slightly staggered,

It can be seen that the white goose down fills the sleeping pad,

nothing else.

The protagonist in the painting is a middle-aged man with a gloomy face and no blood on his face.

His cheekbones are prominent, his eye sockets are blackened and deeply sunken, like an addict who has been staying up all night,

Not only the face, but the skin on the hands and neck also showed a sickly paleness that has not seen the sun all year round.

But his lips are covered with a strange scarlet paint, which is as coquettish as blood, giving people a great visual contrast.

A well-fitting black tuxedo, a high-necked cloak with a red background and black leather, a top hat, shiny leather boots, and a walking stick with a bauhinia pattern.

The divine light in both eyes is deep, as black as ink, revealing a wise aura that seems to be able to see everything.

The shape of the person in the painting,
