Longevity Story

And both heroic and ignorant, and the younger brothers and sisters of the orphanage made a promise to return safely.

However, should it be said that it is unexpected?Or as expected?The final battle was incomparably tragic—

The true body of the Earth God is a giant composed of metal and rock. If it were not for the participation of several lower-rank holy swords and quasi-heroes with special qualifications, there is almost no hope of victory for human beings alone.

But even so, the battlefield is still tragic.The earth for several miles turned into magma, the human army was engulfed underground, and the young and young girls who would be brave warriors sacrificed one by one in order to buy time.

Until the end, only the black-haired boy who was best at swordsmanship and the mystical meaning of the gods was left alone to confront the Earth God, and he used forbidden magic to shatter the giant body of the Earth God full of regret and despair.

The Earth God was finally defeated, and his soul fell into a hundred-year slumber at the cost of losing his body.

The black-haired boy also endured the petrification curse of the Earth God because of the price of forbidden magic, with cracks all over his body and his internal organs almost stopped, and fell asleep peacefully.

When he opened his eyes again, it was already 500 years later...

—————————

When Selekia received the contact notice signed [Zhan Shen], the memory of this black-haired and black-eyed young man was awakened little by little.

When she met him seven years ago from the world that had almost fallen into doomsday, he was completely hovering over the earth in a state of serious injuries that might die at any time.

But even so, he still didn't drag his tattered body to keep fighting—

Find food when you are hungry, find water when you are thirsty, rest when you are tired, and fight when you are rested...

Not like a walking dead at all, but only the fighting consciousness and the belief in immortality support him to move on.

Moved by this belief, Selekia and her team rescued him and introduced him to the Ark of the Grand Realm.

At the beginning, his spiritual world was riddled with holes, and he couldn't even answer his name.

After his injury improved and he tried to communicate, he decided on a name that didn't seem like a name like [Zen Shen] with the enthusiastic help of Selekia and Caron.

...Speaking of which, at that time, her relationship with Caron was not as rigid as it was afterward.

Thinking of this, the nameless fire in Selekia's heart boiled again, and he ruthlessly inserted the practice sword in his hand into the rocky ground under his feet, setting off a continuous wave of magma.

"This is the end of today's exercise, clean up the venue."

Leaving a message to the surrounding knight attendants, Selekia disappeared in the knight training ground in the imperial capital with her exclusive maid.

A group of nervous knight attendants and the lower knights breathed a sigh of relief in an instant.

One of the strongest air combat knights in the empire, Duchess Selekia Eubitilia, one of the greatest contributors to the empire's victory in the continental war, who can challenge mecha weapons in person.

Although every time he returned to the imperial capital, he would routinely instruct his juniors.But I don't know why the aura around me when I came back this time was extremely heavy and terrifying.

Even some sensitive newcomers will be frightened to the ground just by looking at them.

"In the past, it was obviously not like this..."

Although almost all of the older Aerial Knights thought so, but no one dared to say anything.

……

Selekia is not in the mood to care whether her expression and aura are scaring people, just like the expressions and eyes of ordinary people who stay up late for three days are equally scary, she is very confused now.

She tried her best to restore her calm in various ways, but every time she thought about connecting with the non-existent [Caron], her heart would be chaotic and her emotions would be anxious.

Revenge, plan revenge, exercise venting, find someone to talk to... Selekiya has tried all kinds of methods, but the effect is not very good.

—Selekia tried her best to find something else to distract her attention from.

Looking at the name of the [Slayer] who requested to be contacted in the badge communication, Selekia decided to listen to what he was going to do first.

It has been many years since he was introduced into the Ark of the Grand Realm, and Selekia has not paid any special attention to this once decadent and dead youth.

I just heard that he has been performing daily security tasks in the courtyard of the deceased in recent years... seems to have settled down?

Came to a quiet lounge for nobles in the knight's training ground, agreed to the meeting request on the opposite side, and the door of the Rainbow Bridge for the exclusive route opened immediately...

956. The long-lived sage sent generations of brave men on the road... (someone felt the resonance)

After confirming that the time-acceleration magic seems to be useful here, the star has been stuck in the subconscious world of Meteora.

On the other side of the real world, Xing Ke did not let her follow him for the reason of letting Ilya take care of his physical body (and used her as a bait to allow her to do whatever she wanted with his physical body), so there is no need to worry about it for a short time.

In this way, when the subjective time of Xingqi has passed for about six or seven years (more than ten minutes outside), his exploration of this "ocean of knowledge" in Meteora's subconscious also has a scale of several kilometers. .

If it were an ordinary person, it might have long been the time to endure loneliness, but for Xing Ke, he just sighed in his heart—"Is it really good for me to be so leisurely?"—.

There is no need to deliberately simulate the eating and sleeping of ordinary human beings, the trouble of being forced to interrupt halfway through reading a book, and the trouble of book shortage without refilling the next book after reading a book... Said, this is simply "heaven" ah.

Do you want to go on vacation more often in the future?I want to buy a villa here, no matter how expensive it is.

However, while living here is very comfortable and exploring the sea of ​​knowledge is very interesting, the key purpose at the beginning is not clear.

It stands to reason that there is a [book] for him conceptually here, which can make him reluctant to think about it, voluntarily sacrifice his soul, and turn it into ashes, but Xing Ke could not find it.

Divination, prophecy and other methods will definitely not work, and the exhaustive method of chance has always been the most reliable, but it is really a big project.

——It took several years to see dozens of square kilometers, and this space full of books seems to have no end at all.

"I don't talk about building an intelligent system that can be classified and retrieved. If you want to see a specific taste, you have to find it yourself..."

Xing Ke was paralyzed in mid-air, and he muttered to himself while putting the book he had read in his hand back in place.

Of course, he didn't mean to want anyone's answer, he was just talking to himself.

However, a calm and gentle girl's voice sounded in her ear——

"Your Excellency, is there a certain book you're looking for?"

"Wow--"

The sudden voice really startled Xing Ke, and then he saw the familiar girl with short silver ears and wearing a robe with ethnic characteristics——

Meteora didn't know when he had already stood by his side.

"...Ahem, it's not surprising that you are here at all. After all, this is the world transformed by your subconscious, and you should have a subconscious incarnation of yourself."

Xing Ke was ashamed for not thinking about this all the time, and lamented that he was indeed not a smart person.

Then try to say hello to this "Meteora":

"Yo, hello, Meteora. What should I call you?"

Someone who can call each other's name while asking how to call each other - Xing Ke feels that he is the only one who enjoys this honor.

"Hello, Your Excellency. My name is Meteora Estreich, and I am the administrator of this [Library of the End]."

"Oh? This place has a name."

And it's still [End Yan] or something... a bit of a middle-of-the-road feeling, does it mean it's over?

Xing Ke wanted to complain about the broken name set here, but he didn't say it.Immediately complained:

"Where have you been hiding before, I didn't even realize you were there. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if I did something shameless and private?"

"Your Excellency, I am always here, anywhere in this library.

But I only show up when the guests need me, guiding them to find the book they want.

Also, please keep relatively quiet and polite in the library, and things that violate public order and good customs are also prohibited. "

Meteora responded like a competent librarian.

"Then, the lady who was turned to ashes before..."

"Yes, that lady, with my help, found the book of destiny that belonged to her, and welcomed her end with satisfaction."

Meteora admitted very calmly.

"...Look at what you said, I am speechless."

Because it's all facts.

Xing Ke continued to advance the topic, trying to ask more:

"Then why is this place called [End Yan]? Is there an allusion to it?"

For this question, if the ordinary Meteora would use the words "I am a librarian, not a museum commentator" to refute the star carving, it seems that this is not the case with the Meteora here.

She continued to answer calmly and indifferently:

"As long as it's a story, there will be a moment when it will usher in [the end], or it will end, or it will end.

And here, this library records all the stories of all the brave warriors who were born in the destiny from embarking on the journey to the end.

Hence the names: the library of the end, the library of the end of the world, the library of the end, etc.

The language is used differently, but the meaning is the same. "

"Uh, it turns out that it is similar to my guess."

I don't know why, even though Meteora was just introducing it in a very ordinary way, Xing Ke felt shivering for no reason... a little excited.

"So, take it out, the book that is destined for me." Xing Ke couldn't wait to usher in his end.

"..."

Seeing Xing Ke's abnormality, he didn't say much, and Meteora closed his eyes——

The pure white space where only books and bookshelves existed, which had been maddeningly silent, suddenly began to move.

Rows of bookshelves moved as fast as they were being slid by an invisible huge palm, like a Rubik's cube being turned.

The bookshelves within the field of vision were quickly screened and reduced, and the time for a few breaths was very short, and then continued to reduce the number... until the last book was left.

"How is this..."

"No."

"...?"

"No, Your Excellency. It seems that the library doesn't have the books you want, and I'm really sorry."

"Don't apologize to me - that makes me look tragic doesn't it?"

Xing Ke waved his hands in disappointment and frustration, rejected Meteora's apology, and comforted himself in his heart to give up the urge to smash here.

After all, he just decided to buy a house here.

"Hey... tell me the reason, let me despair." Xing Ke has suffered from such "disappointment" many times, and has long been resistant.So I quickly recovered and asked.
