Red Moon Returns

Going down the stairs, only the dim gas lights flickered on both sides. Compared with the noise on the ground, the silence here was palpitating. Only the monotonous footsteps of four people echoed on the stairs.

And the old and low voice of Ms. Nightingale.

"The information of the Light of Miracle is too obscure. Its records only exist in a few historical documents. These are the secrets of the church. You two are trustworthy young people. I agree to make an exception and let you contact together, but I still hope you can keep it strictly confidential."

"In the name of Angel."

"In the name of, uh, Ms. Scarlet."

Lynch also learned to swear with his hand on his chest, and he was looking forward to this trip.

He had borrowed books from Archbishop Trinles of the Dark Night Church, but he borrowed ordinary books and theological works for the public. He did not see any mysterious documents, let alone find special books like the Book of the Dead. It is said that similar documents are stored in a special library and are strictly confidential. Even church insiders cannot borrow them. In the end, he could only borrow some ordinary religious and historical books, none of which involved the field of mysticism.

His curiosity was not satisfied, which made him regretful. However, it seems that this time he has the opportunity to see the special library of another church, which can make up for a big regret in his heart.

"Special library? Oh, yes, but it may not be what you think." The old woman's expression was a little subtle, and she explained, "Basically every church has several special libraries, but because of special requirements, the number is very small. There are only two in the Lander Parish of the Church of Suffering, one in Norin and one in Rhine. Most of the records in them are about the mysterious books and history within the church."

"But that is already considered a mysterious document, right? A few photos killed an expert before. Now there are so many mysterious documents together. Is it really not dangerous?"

"No, it is not a mysterious document. We used some special method to avoid the formation of mysterious documents, so the number of special libraries is so small. Come on, we are here."

Lin Qi noticed that the four of them had reached the basement of the white tower. There was a circular corridor with a series of featureless doors on both sides, and there was nothing special about it.

However, when the old woman pushed open one of the doors and walked in, Lin Qi was stunned.

For a moment, he thought Nightingale had walked into the wrong door.

Behind the door was a small room whose area was difficult to estimate, because the room was only white. The white room was empty without any clutter. Standing inside, it felt strange.

The old woman had already walked in first. Miss Diana tugged at Lynch's sleeve, and Lynch came to his senses and followed Natalie in. At this time, the old woman was already standing in the middle of the room, and whispered to the opposite wall: "I am Nightingale. I need to check some information. They are certified by me. Let's participate in the inquiry together."

"Understood." A female voice that was indifferent and emotionless came from the other side of the wall. She spoke stumblingly, as if she hadn't spoken for a long time, "What do you want to check?"

"Records about the light of miracle."

"Understood, wait a moment."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Lynch was a little disappointed. It seemed that this library was so strict that even Nightingale could not enter. He could only apply outside and wait for the people inside to find the books. Forget it, this is normal. I hope we don't have to wait too long.

However, after a second at most, before a thought was finished, the voice inside rang again: "There are seven records of the use of Miracle Light, recorded in the 438th year of the Fourth Epoch, the 697th year of the Fourth Epoch, the 1175th year of the Fourth Epoch, the 1511th year of the Fourth Epoch, the 221st year of the Fifth Epoch, the 939th year of the Fifth Epoch, and the 988th year of the Fifth Epoch."

What's going on? There's no need to be so fast.

Lin Qi was a little stunned. Even if there was a computer inside, it couldn't be so fast, and there was no sound of turning pages at all. This made him have some strange thoughts in his mind.

"These are..."

"The first, third, fourth, fifth and sixth are usage records, all related to the church, and the records are relatively detailed. The second is also a usage record, but the church was not involved, and the record only has the time and place. The seventh is a research record, which comes from the research topic of the secret society Witch Paradise. The first one, in the 438th year of the Fourth Epoch, the Miracle Light first appeared, and the location was the Lorensal Federation in the new continent..."

The voice on the other side did not pause at all, starting from the first one, and read out all the seven pieces of information about the Miracle Light in the past two epochs one by one.

The more Lin Qi listened, the more wrong it felt.

These contents were obviously composed of very scattered information, and it was difficult to record them on the same carrier. If you want to find them all, you must go through a period of searching, and it is impossible to complete them in such a short time.

Unless the people inside have already found them and are waiting for Lin Qi and his group to ask, or just... Lin Qi's heart trembled, and he thought of a more outrageous possibility.

Or this information is hidden in her memory, and the so-called information search is the process of her retrieving information from her brain.

Damn it.

No wonder Nightingale said just now that they used some method to avoid the danger of mysterious documents. It turned out that this method was used to record all the mysterious history and classics. This did avoid the influence of mysterious documents, but the executors had to record so many things. No wonder the conditions were so harsh and there were only two in the whole Rand.

Damn it, I understand. The person who serves as the library probably lives in seclusion behind the wall all year round, without any contact with the outside world, so he talks so strangely. This is probably to prevent the library from being disturbed by worldly things and distracting him from forgetting the books in his mind. So the whole room uses this monotonous color, probably to avoid distraction to the greatest extent.

Damn it, living in this kind of environment is terrifying to think about, and the people inside can only be voluntary. Any dissatisfaction will be infinitely amplified in this kind of environment, eventually leading to irreversible consequences.

With such a life, a normal person would probably go crazy in a few days, but the people inside have to spend their whole lives like this. How much sacrifice they have to make. These religious people are so cruel that they don't even spare themselves.

At this moment, a silver-haired girl wearing a strange headscarf appeared in Lynch's mind.

In a daze, someone tapped his shoulder, and Lynch realized that he was distracted. He quickly put back his distracting thoughts and found that it was Ms. Nightingale who woke him up.

"It seems that you have understood that any carrier that records mysterious information will form a mysterious document, but people cannot. Therefore, people are the 'books' of each church. All information is recorded through word of mouth and cannot be unloaded until a certain age. This responsibility. Don’t think too much, this is everyone’s own choice, and don’t get distracted. The shorter the interruption time from the outside world, the less interference it will have on the book.”

Lin Qi nodded silently, put aside distracting thoughts, and listened intently to the voice coming from behind the wall.
