My father has the appearance of an emperor

Chapter 415 History
A large hall in the inner layer of the Emerald Castle is the library.

In the small hall inside the door sat an old man in a purple robe, reading a book in his hand. He must be the librarian.

Jiang Chen came over and said politely: "I want to go to the library to read books, is there anything I need to pay attention to?"

The old man smiled and shook his head, making a "do as you please" gesture.

So Jiang Chen entered the hall next door.

There are large bookshelves in the library, filled with all kinds of books.

In the middle of the bookshelf stands a stone statue, which is a pale old man in a purple robe, standing in front of a reading rack.

This reminded Jiang Chen inexplicably of the Pandora Library.

He casually pulled out a book and saw that the hard book was still locked. The restraint on the book had the power of rules, and Jiang Chen could not break the lock even if he transformed.

The golden worm bubbled: "I am the Skeleton Key!"

Jiang Chen was amused: "This one can be opened? What about this one?"

He went to get another one.

Golden Worm: "I am the Master Key! This one can open too. I can open all the books here."

"Then let's open it." Jiang Chen said.

There was a clicking sound, and books were opened one after another.

I flipped through a book at random and saw the words "Analysis of Arcane Truth" written on the page.

A book of ancient mysteries.

Jiang Chen tried, but unfortunately, he was unable to store it in the ring space.

He tried to take out the library and walked outside to the living room, but the moment he walked out the door, the book in his hand disappeared.

The old man who was the janitor at the library looked at him and smiled.

Jiang Chen smiled embarrassedly: "Just try it."

Walking back to the library, Jiang Chen saw that the disappeared book had appeared on the bookshelf.

He took out another book to read, and it turned out to be "My Views on the Arcane Arts of Shaping".

Let’s read another book, “On the Eighteen Basic Application Techniques of Transfiguration Magic”.

"A Complete Collection of Space Magic", "One Hundred Quick Methods to Learn Magic", "How to Become a Qualified Magician"...

Damn, the title of this book sounds like a promotion.

Jiang Chen quickly realized that he had found the wrong bookshelf. Both rows of bookshelves contained arcane books.

Jiang Chen went to other bookshelves to continue searching, and finally found a bookshelf of historical classics.

He took out a copy of "Legend of Stars and Moon" and looked at it carefully, and finally cursed, "Fuck, it's a novel, who is so stupid to read a novel!"

I threw it aside angrily and went to the next bookshelf, this time it was about daily life.

It was not until he walked to the bookshelf next to the stone statue that Jiang Chen finally saw the true history.

"History of the Purple Iris Dynasty".

The Purple Iris Dynasty was once a dynasty on the Elemental Continent. Now the human kingdom on the Elemental Continent is called the Eye of the Storm.

The Kingdom of Eye of the Storm was established after the overthrow of the Purple Iris Dynasty, which was probably more than a hundred years earlier than the Kingdom of Famite.

However, compared to the armed overthrow of the Famit family, the rise of the Eye of the Storm Kingdom was different.

According to historical records, it was the Purple Kite Dynasty itself that encountered an inexplicable disaster, which led to the destruction of the entire country. Afterwards, the people of the Elemental Continent rebuilt the Eye of the Storm Kingdom on the ruins.

Of course, the most interesting part is probably - as the Emerald Castle has never left the Broken Lands, how do they have the history of the Elemental Main Continent?
This is like Tao Yuanming arriving at Peach Blossom Spring, and the people inside tell you that we have never been exposed to the outside world, but we know all the developments and changes in the world.

Well, this is very confusing!

"Interesting, Xiaonan, you should also come out and read a book." Jiang Chen handed over Xiaonan.

Xiaonan looked around in confusion: "There are so many books, I can't read them all."

"Read whatever you want. You have a scanning eye that can record all the content." Jiang Chen didn't expect him to understand, but there were so many books here that he definitely couldn't finish reading them in six hours, so he asked Xiaonan to scan them for him first.

Use this as a computer.

"Okay!" Xiaonan rushed over, picked up a book and began to read it quickly.

One is recording, the other is reading. Jiang Chen spent half a day reading seriously. Seeing that the time was almost up, Jiang Chen asked, "Xiao Nan, how is the recording going?"

Xiaonan replied: "Almost done, how about you?"

"I just finished reading one book." Jiang Chen sighed.

Xiaonan curled her lips: "The reading speed of humans."

Jiang Chen asked him: "What is the Purple Kite Dynasty best at?"

Xiaonan was confused: "I don't know."

Jiang Chen slapped him on the head: "Idiot! What's the point of reading so much? This country is a retro one. They still use the ancient arcane as the foundation of their country. They were a rare outlier at the time, so most of the bookshelves here are filled with ancient arcane."

Xiaonan asked: "What use is this to you?"

Jiang Chen shook his head: "No."

Xiaonan curled her lips: "Idiot! What's the point of knowing so much?"

Jiang Chen: "..."

Just then, the alarm sounded outside.

"Enemy attack!!!" The shouts of the wood spirits echoed through the sky.

------

Walking out of the library, Jiang Chen ignored the area restrictions and went directly to the wall of the Emerald Castle.

This is the outer area.

A large number of wood spirit soldiers were standing on the city wall at this moment, looking into the distance with solemn eyes.

On the distant horizon, some red figures have quietly appeared.

They were covered in red mist and were moving slowly towards this side. Although their speed was not fast, they raised a sky full of red smoke and dust. Their twisted figures were in all kinds of strange postures.

Some stood in human form, some rode on creatures similar to war horses. There were all kinds of creatures, and most importantly, they were all deformed.

Most life forms have a certain degree of symmetry. For example, humans have hands and feet, and most wild animals do the same. Even centipedes and caterpillars are bilaterally symmetrical. Even if snakes have no hands or feet, they are at least long worms, and are symmetrical.

However, these ancient creatures before us were full of asymmetry and deformity. They often had a huge arm, while the arm next to it was as small as a baby's; or only one side had limbs, while the other was simply empty.

Some ancient creatures not only have deformed limbs, but also distorted colors, half red and half green.

Some creatures even have deformed heads. They only have one head, but all the facial features are concentrated on one side, while the other side is blank. It looks as weird as it can be.

It's not an ancient creature, it's a deformed creature!
And they are all different. They don't look like one race, but more like a collection of monsters.

At this moment, they were moving slowly towards the Emerald Castle. Their movements were slow, but brought a great sense of oppression.

The wood spirit soldiers and those who received the precepts looked ahead nervously.

This can be considered a war mission, but I don’t know how the military merit will be calculated.

Not far away, Nuoya saw Jiang Chen appear, walked over quickly, and whispered, "Where are you going?"

"I read for a while. How are you?" Jiang Chen asked.

Noah handed him a note: "Twenty-four Americans, distributed from level six to eight."

Jiang Chen glanced at the note and put it away: "No one named Mickey?"

Noah looked a little strange: "No, why?"

"It's okay." Jiang Chen casually took out a gun and handed it to Nuoya: "This is for you, I borrowed it."

Nuoya took it and looked at it, with surprise in his eyes: "Dragon Head Spear? This spear is very powerful!"

"Have you heard of it?" Jiang Chen asked.

Noah nodded: "Someone who was ordained once got it, but he emigrated later."

what?
Wasn't it said that only the Dwarf King Blessington had it?

I see. This is definitely not the first time this guy has been robbed. No wonder he needs so many dragon-head guns at a time.

This is bad luck.
