Central Library...Surman looked at the city hall-style building in front of him, and in the night, he saw the guards at the door.

This is a hall of knowledge controlled by ancient nobles. Although it is publicly public, it requires a certain social status to enter the library, so the guards on duty on night watch are arranged.

With Surman's identity and his friendship with ancient nobles, it is easy to get in, but the problem is that his identity is too "high-end", which brings some trouble.

Even if the ancient nobles pay attention to his privacy, they will not monitor Surman.

But the question is, the library itself is an open building, and the museum is mixed with fish and dragons during the day. God knows, will those insiders of the Life Prayer Association stay in the museum? Take the opportunity to monitor Surman?

After all, the original belief of this civilized city-state was the Prayer for Life, so it is normal for some fish that missed the net.

In fact, Surman's original intention has no great grudge against the Qisheng Association, but since he joined the Bounty Guild, everything he did was targeted by the Qisheng Association, both openly and secretly.

Even if he didn't care and let the other party go in a lot, the other party might not appreciate it... It's hard to say that, he still has resentment and wants to take revenge on Surman. Since that's the case, Surman can only do a good job and just send the other party on the way.

To eradicate the roots is Surman's code of conduct. He will not be like a fool, waiting for the other party to come to take revenge.

................

Unable to enter through the main entrance, Surman quietly took advantage of his dark vision and walked around the side of the Central Library, where there was a window corresponding to the public bathroom.

After all, no matter how clean the public bathroom is, it is not afraid to be made into a closed environment... unless it wants to kill the user.

These windows are all set high, about seven or eight meters away from the ground, which can be seen as the space height of the entire library.

As soon as Surman's fingers wrapped around, the line of control formed by the shadows pulled his body, like a flexible night cat, successfully climbed to the edge of the window. The next moment, he pushed open the window with colorful plaids and quietly flipped into the interior of the bathroom.

"I didn't do a strict enough job of alertness. After all, even if books are stolen, selling stolen goods is a big problem." Surman commented on this.

Knowledge is indeed very valuable in this era, but the books that record knowledge cannot be converted into gold coins immediately.

Some thieves steal books and always sell stolen goods, but who is willing to buy them? The latter pays a membership fee to the ancient nobles, or has enough social status to enter the library to borrow. There is no need to risk offend the ancient nobles.

What's more, can't people who have the ability to steal gold pounds directly? Why bother to do this? It's even more troublesome to sell stolen goods. Therefore, the library's defense is relatively lax, which also gives Surman a chance to sneak in.

Surman left the bathroom and came to the corridor outside, which was dim and quiet.

According to his previous life memory, he did not stay at the bottom, and quietly went up the upper floor along the spiral stairs.

On the way, Surman encountered several patrol guards. They held lanterns and batons to patrol around. But helplessly, Surman was always one step ahead of them, and his vision was larger than the range of the lanterns. He found a good location every time and avoided their patrol without any danger. In this environment, Surman came to the upper floor of the library.

A giant bronze door with a simple appearance stands in front of him.

This is the upper floor of the library, like the auditorium in the ancient Roman gladiatorium, with circular buildings distributed, with doors embedded on the walls, and behind the door is a book warehouse, which stores a large number of borrowed books.

Strangely, the bronze giant door in front of Surman was very high, at least seven or eight meters, unlike a door prepared for humans. Under normal circumstances, if a borrower wants to open the door, he would have to call two guards and let them work together to push open the bronze giant door.

"This is the door left behind in ancient times, from the second era when it was ruled by giants..." Surman looked at the bronze giant gate, and relevant information naturally emerged in his mind.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Central Library, that is, when the three nobles were established, they also inherited certain customs as members of the Sith nobles.

For example, books that record historical knowledge must be stored behind the "Gate of Giants", which is a tradition imprinted in the bloodline.

These bronze giant gates are actually products left over from ancient giant city-states. After all, Gangdian City existed very early. From the information provided by Ms. Black Butterfly, it is not difficult to tell that this city-state had existed as early as the Second Age and the Silver Age. Then, when the ancient nobles overthrew the rule of the Life-Chasing Society and found several "giant gates" from the ruins of the city-state, it was not a rare thing.

"According to the information on the forum, it should be this door..."

Surman did not rush to act. He listened for a while, and relied on his perceptual attributes to determine that the distance between other guards was very far. Even if there was a small movement, he would not alarm the other party in a short period of time.

The so-called perceptual attribute is the same as the lucky attribute and cannot be added, but its value depends on the weighted influence of the four major attributes (power, agility, physique, and mystery).

Simply put, no matter what attribute you improve, you will increase perception. The difference is that some attributes have a greater impact, such as mysterious attributes, which have a far greater impact on perception than power, agility and other attributes. It just so happens that the "Night Knight" is a career path that focuses on mystery. Surman's mysterious attributes are as high as 17 points, so his perception is also 8 points, which is close to the limit of ordinary people at 9 points.

Above 10 attributes, this is an attribute field that only extraordinary people can enter.

In this case, Surman's listening effect is very good, unless the other party has the ability to hide. Obviously, the group of ordinary guards do not have this ability, and their movements cannot be hidden from Surman. Every move is at the controllable.

“It’s time to act….”

Surman took a deep breath and reached forward to hold the bronze gate. The next moment, he straightened his back and led the force along his arms to the bronze gate. Crack, accompanied by blue veins rising from his fair skin, the heavy gate was slowly pushed open, making a slight and undetectable creaking sound, which was spread far in the quiet corridor, but not clear enough to alarm the guards below.

Click!

When Surman stopped exerting force, bursts of smoke filled the bronze door, and the gap for only one person was revealed.

Seeing this, Surman crawled in sideways, but considering the difficulty of pulling the door in the opposite direction and the guards rarely go to the top floor, even if they come up, it is difficult to find gaps in the door in a dim environment, so Surman did not close the door.

Behind the bronze gate, rows of towering bookshelf are neatly arranged, filled with all kinds of books. If someone you don’t know wants to find a target in the library without relying on the ‘catalog’, the difficulty of execution is no less than finding an ancient shipwreck in the sea of ​​ashes.

Surman thought for a moment and then searched carefully with his "dark vision".

He found the bookshelf of the "Barriage Biography" smoothly from the letter numbers on the wooden shelf.

"Biography of the Bard, "Biography of the Heroes of Algas..." Surman silently recited the name. Soon, his eyes were attracted by a book on the bookshelf, near the right side, a book with a brown cover hidden among many books.

According to the description on the forum, there are no real pictures, but players searched the academic's diary and found the appearance description of "The Legend of Algas" and the corresponding bookshelves. Judging from the situation, this book should be this one.

Surman reached out and gently pulled out the animal skin book from the bookshelf.

The cover was covered with dust, accompanied by Surman's wipe, and the brown book cover was revealed, with a sun wheel pattern surrounded by rocks. In ancient times, this was a symbol of giants. It was a little less mysterious than the Black Abyss Secret Book, but it had a little more historical atmosphere.

In the center of the wheel of rock, the four big words "Algas" are depicted on it.

Turning on the first page, Surman saw the description above—

"This is a biography of the famous figures in 'Algas', with them as the background. When you turn the preface, it means that you will step into this adventure full of wonder and fantasy..."

"This is the silver age where giants and ancient dragons compete against each other, and the ancient species ruled the world and surrendered to them."

"When I write this preface, I hope someone can see the traces of history and......"

"Haha, remember my words."

Surman quickly flipped the book, and soon the content of the book was presented before him. Generally speaking, the story perspective unfolded from a semi-giant called "Elmon", a hybrid species of giants and humans.

Although there is a giant bloodline in his body, the other half comes from the bloodline of humans, which makes him despised because in the Silver Age, human status was very low. Even compared to the mixed-race orcs, they were discriminated against and bullied by the former because of their natural weak bodies. In the Silver Age, humans were the bottom of the biological pyramid, which was only better than wild beasts without intelligence.

It is worth mentioning that the orcs are high-level extraordinary lives and are descendants of humans mixed with humans. Due to breaking through normal reproductive isolation, their reproductive ability is very low. They need to find orcs with similar bloodlines to have difficulty giving birth to children.

Due to the special way of reproduction, they often disappear after two or three generations. To this day, it is difficult to find their traces in human society in the gray iron era. Perhaps, only the southernmost Cangjie Tree Domain will have the whereabouts of half-orcs.

With his thoughts retracted, Surman continued to read. This mixed-blood semi-giant named "Edmund". He was born in the city-state of the Holy Land of the Giant God Kingdom, [Algas], but due to the mixed-blood in his body, he was not allowed to live there.

So Edmund, who was driven out of the city by the pure blood giants, walked north along the dark forest covered with gray fog and iron thorns, and came to the northern end of the Eternal Night World, which is the cold soil in the northern period of the Second Era.

The cold soil in the north at that time was not as cold as it is now. The bitter ice wall that stood for thousands of years still resisted the wind and snow. Only at the end of the year would the cold wave bring a short and severe cold and the second "Silent Moon Night".

On ordinary days, ordinary people can enjoy the heat of summer even in the cold city-states in the north. There are four seasons a year, rather than just a long winter.

Edmund went on a long journey and finally, he came to a civilized city established by a mixed race [Lanya]. This is a civilized city that is loyal to the giant kingdom of God but also has its own rule. There are also some mixed-race nobles in the territory, such as the Sith...

On the first day Edmund arrived at [Lanya], he met the orc Cardan from the caravan. Later, they were involved in the internal fighting vortex of the [Lanya] nobles, and with courage and wisdom, they resolved many disasters.

During this period, Edmund also met the beautiful and charming noble lady Lina, and the two sides fell in love with each other. However, in the subsequent adventure, the angry [Lanya] nobleman hired an extremely powerful assassin, but Edmund was assassinated and died.

The protagonist is dead...

When Surman saw this, he had no fluctuations in his heart, because the name "The Legend of Algas" shows the content of the book. Moreover, in his previous life, the scholar once complained that in his diary, the character's narrative was extremely chaotic, but the plot logic was smooth, forming a strange storyline. Surman was also prepared for this.

So he continued reading.

After Edmund's death, the novel content was changed to the assassin's perspective. The assassin, relying on his achievements, climbed up all the way, and had the hope of obtaining a "special training" aristocratic secret technique. The result was contrary to his wishes. At the most critical moment, the assassin was unfortunately attacked by the orc Cardin who came to revenge, and became the second dead protagonist of the book.

Finally, the content of the book was transferred to the orc Cardin because his actions violated the majesty of the nobles, but there was also the plea of ​​the noble lady Lina. So he was punished and entered the giant axe arena and needed to carry out a life-and-death battle to regain freedom.

The content of the book ends here, and there is a paragraph behind it that "to be continued".

"The next thing is to open the secret of books..."

Surman did not hesitate, and he stroked his fingers and used the shadow to cut a little skin, allowing blood to penetrate and landed on the brown and yellow pages of the book in front of him.

The next second, these bloods are as if they have life, and they are derived independently, and outline text content that is far greater than the amount of blood—

"Originally, the enemy that the half-orc Cardan had to face would be a mixed-blooded man with giant bloodline. The opponent was extremely powerful and could smash Cardan's head with an axe. He was stronger than Edmund and even more difficult to deal with!"

"It can be predicted that Cardin's fate will not be too wonderful."

"But the noble lady Lina couldn't bear to see that ending. In fact, after Edmund's death, her feelings had been transferred to Cardin, especially Cardin's death to avenge Edmund was deeply imprinted in her heart."

"So, the noble lady Lina came up with a brilliant plan."

"Just replace the opponent and replace it with a weak person, then Cardan will survive!"

"Oh my God, this is such a clever trick!!!"

The blood outlined in the book was slightly paused, as if it was experiencing something. The next moment, when it regained information, its extremely fast speed, outlined a large paragraph of text—

"Miss Lena, a noble lady, cleared the relationship and asked the prison guards to secretly replace the cell of the duel target with another object. Well, a very weak human, pure blood human!"

"Oh my God, in the city-state ruled by the mixed race, there is still a pure-blooded human being. However, the low status of pure-blooded human beings seems reasonable and also in line with the goal of the noble lady Lina."

“The most important thing is….”

"Cardin can survive!!!"

Accompanied by the extremely excited and surging text description, a wave of inexplicable suction came. The next moment, Surman felt the environment around him change, and suddenly became extremely noisy and lively, and the air was filled with a hot air!

When he looked up again, under the extremely hot sun, he slowly came into his eyes like the ancient Roman arena.

Above the arena, rows of races with mixed blood marks raised their arms high and burst into shocking cheers. Their eyes were excited and bloodthirsty, and they were ready to welcome the next fight that took place on the arena.
Chapter completed!
