Mysteries: Arcana Wars

Chapter 268 Note Room

The numerous ruins made it somewhat difficult to explore the entire library. Klein spent quite a while before finally finding the room where Manstein's notes were stored.

Compared to other rooms, the furniture in the Note Room was particularly neat, without the messy atmosphere of scattered documents and books. On the contrary, in this room, all the bookcases were neatly arranged, and rows of thick books were carefully placed according to the time pattern, spotless. The horrific extraordinary disaster and building settlement seemed to have nothing to do with this small room full of tranquility. It was as clean as if it had just been completed yesterday.

This shows the importance that Dean Melissa and the Steam Church attach to these materials, as well as the importance they attach to the Mansteins.

The room was very small, with a few rows of bookshelves taking up the entire room. Klein began to search among the bookshelves.

In order to complete the transaction with the fully automatic wishing machine, Scott passed on information about the [Glorious Golden Cup], also known as the [Holy Grail], to Klein through the fully automatic online wishing machine. Along with these documents, Scott also passed on his last wish to the fully automatic wishing machine: to obtain Manstein's Note No. 45 stored in the Gales Library.

Scott did pass on information about the lost Gales Library, but he mainly explained the life and experience of the library and could not provide the location and path of the library. The specific route was only found with the information from Shining Tesla.

In fact, the information from Shining was not 100% reliable, but the general direction was correct. Klein had walked into many deadly places along the way, and with the help of some divination skills, he finally arrived here after overcoming many difficulties and obstacles.

Thanks to the Steam Church and Dean Melissa's rigorous and serious academic attitude, it was not difficult to find this notebook.

Adhering to the great spirit of being here, Klein simply flipped through the notebook No. 45 in his hand, as well as the six full cabinets. The schedule of this underground trip was very tight. Klein failed to obtain some valuable humanoid puppets underground, and the exiles he fought the most were warned by spiritual intuition that they could not be used as puppet materials, otherwise they would be in great danger. In desperation, Klein had been using some underground creatures as puppets for activities during this period of time. At this time, he simply summoned the puppets to look through the notes together to increase efficiency.

It has to be said that as fellow time travelers, the Mansteins undoubtedly left valuable treasures for later generations. From steam engines to splitters, to aerospace technology from the old days, they gave their all and tried their best to leave behind everything they knew.

Among the notes that have been translated on the market, the notes of the Mansteins can be divided into three parts in terms of technology:

One is the technology that can be realized at the level of technology in the Sixth Epoch at that time, or the topics raised based on the technology of the Bright Moon Age. Some of these things are like Roselle's diary, leaving behind drawings that can be used directly, while others point out feasible directions for development or improvement for future generations.

The second is the technology and social outlook that prevailed in the old days. These contents were realized one by one under the twisted technology tree of the Sixth Epoch. Although the underlying technologies used were very different, similar effects were achieved. This part of the content is also the fundamental reason why the Mansteins were considered "saviors who traveled back from the future."

The third part is that as a time traveler, he has fantasies about the more distant future based on his knowledge of the old times. It is as far-fetched as science fiction. To Klein, this part is no different from fantasy. Rather than calling it a "Manstein prophecy", it is better to call it a "Manstein fantasy".

The advanced concepts and crazy technology in the notes of Manstein and his wife made people in later generations call it "Manstein's prophecy", especially the realization of the second part of the notes in the sixth era, which made the title of "prophecy" worthy of its name. The more technology developed, the more Manstein's prophecy became a reality, and people followed Manstein and his wife more enthusiastically, and they couldn't help but believe that the unrealistic fantasies in the third part of the notes would also come true in the future.

Klein couldn't help but feel a little bitter about this.

Manstein's prophecy was clearly a guide and fantasy based on the social level of the Old Age, telling people what they should have and proposing a fantasy about the future that even they could not predict. The people of the Sixth Epoch followed this guide and successfully developed to the level of the Old Age, even surpassing the Old Age, more like the cyberpunk game that Klein remembered.

The people of the Sixth Century have surpassed Manstein's prophecy, and it is this transcendence that has brought the people of the Fourteenth Century into a precarious but unaware environment. Blind trust and enthusiasm have led them to pursue Manstein's fantasy, firmly believing that Manstein's fantasy will surely come to the world.

People who have surpassed their times are looking for the future in the fantasies of those who are behind.

It's like building a house with blocks dug out from termite holes. It seems that all the blocks are bright and shiny on the surface and meet the standards, but the ignorant and blind children cannot judge which blocks are real and which are fragile components hollowed out by insects. So the building is built crookedly and disharmoniously in the inappropriate instructions. The children who have gained a sense of achievement move forward courageously, but they don't know when those hollow blocks will collapse under the heavy pressure and the building will collapse.

However, Klein still has expectations for the pioneers of this era. The progress of any era is a process of continuous trial and error and sacrifice. The people of the sixth season will not and cannot directly copy the homework of the old era. They will have their own future.

Hopefully, these sacrifices won’t be too tragic.

It took Klein a long time to read through these notes. In fact, Klein could not understand most of the contents of the notes. These notes inherited the Manstein couple's usual chaotic narration and mixed language, as well as some sketches that looked like ghostly characters. Most of the remaining parts that could be interpreted were trivial conversations between the couple, and the rest were rich technical explorations.

It can be seen that the lives of the Mansteins were full of twists and turns and drama. Every day they spent their lives in social turmoil and increasingly worse mental states. The notes were arranged in chronological order. From the notes and narration, Klein could clearly feel that the madness and mental abnormality of the Mansteins were gradually deepening as time passed. In the last few numbered notebooks, Klein could no longer even decipher some of Roselle's handwriting. Those broken sentences and scribbled handwriting had almost become a kind of ciphertext that only the two of them could understand.

From the parts that have been interpreted, the Mansteins spent almost their entire scientific research career at Backlund University of Technology. Klein guessed that Melissa negotiated with the Steam Church to use Backlund University of Technology as a shelter for the Mansteins, so that they would not be out of the effective protection of the Steam Church, but would have a little freedom to breathe under tight control.

Klein even felt that Melissa might have known about his identity as a time traveler in the post-apocalyptic era of the Sixth Epoch, so she tried her best to provide convenience to the Mansteins and learned various old languages.

But there is another problem:

Mr. and Mrs. Manstein are such great writers!
