Chapter 440: Torn Pages

The Lavin's library is more of a larger library than a library.

The library was built underground, and it was not very warm here, and thanks to Grush's strong health, he was able to move around in only a linen suit, and even Asher put on a thicker coat before entering.

The sword he wore at his waist was untied by Grush and placed outside the library, but his Justice remained with him.

An iron chain was tied to this artifact and hung on Grush's waist, and Asher, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but look at it a few more times.

He didn't know Grush's true identity, but the person in front of him was a paladin, and he didn't know anything else.

Although Asher was curious about what the book was hanging from a chain, as a deacon of a noble family, the most important thing he should learn was to keep his mouth shut and not ask anything.

Grush, carrying a kerosene lamp, walked among the bookshelves, followed by Asher, to which he did not say anything, for Sir Ravan was already a relatively generous nobleman to be able to open his library to him, and it was understandable that a deacon should be sent to follow him.

Although Sir Ravan said that he should look through the books here, Grush believed that his words were merely words, and that there must be some books in this library that could not be seen by outsiders, and that the deacon who was now following him was to remind him of which books he could read and which could not.

Grush walked around by himself before turning back and asking, "Mr. Asher, I would like to ask if the record from the time Marat was established should still be there?"

"Of course. โ€

As expected, Asher nodded and said, "This library can't be cleaned by ordinary servants, every once in a while, we deacons will take turns to clean this place and count the books here. If it's a castle record, it should be placed here. โ€

Asher led Grush to the third bookshelf in the first row, crouched down, and ran his fingertips over the spine of the books on the third floor from the bottom up, and suddenly stopped.

"This is it!"

Asher carefully pulled the book out of the shelf, there was nothing on the cover, but Asher was sure that it was the original record of the founding of the city.

There was a desk by the stairs behind the door, and Grush put the kerosene lamp on it, then put down the book in his hand, and carefully opened it, and on the first page he saw the year when Marat began to build itโ€”'Red Eagle One Hundred and Twenty-Three'.

After seeing this year, Grush was stunned for a moment and asked the deacon beside him, "Mr. Asher, when is the 'Red Eagle One Hundred and Twenty-three Years'?"

Asher thought for a moment: "This year is six hundred and seventy-eight years, so it's ......"

"Five hundred and fifty-five years ago......"

Grush retracted his gaze, he had no other thoughts, it could be the chronology on the Eagle Plateau, which was different from the one used by the Ogordon Empire.

Five hundred and fifty-five years ago, the ancestors of the Ravin family came here with their retainers, commoners, and serfs, and built the city out of black stone, and the first building they built was the building at the foot of Grush, the castle of the Ravan family.

There are gates between the inner ring and the outer two layers of walls, and if you want to attack the inner ring, you must break through three gates, and if you attack the wall, the wall will collapse, and many people may be killed, and after that, the collapsed wall will become a pile of rubble, which will become a new line of defense.

If you want to attack from the sky, it will be even more difficult, because this is a plateau, although the sun is violent, but relatively speaking, the high altitude here is colder than the sky in the plains, few people can become air cavalry in this temperature, even if you want to become an air cavalry, you need to be equipped with corresponding cold equipment, the cost is too high, even if the air cavalry can attack the castle inside, that person can not do any damage to the defenders.

With such a castle that is easy to defend and difficult to attack on the Blazing Eagle Plateau, it is more confident to fight.

In the Eagle Principality, bandits are difficult to exterminate because, like their compatriots, they are nomadic herders.

While grazing, those nomads will also become bandits to loot other people's property, and if they want to protect themselves on the Eagle Plateau, in addition to fighting monsters and monsters, they also need to deal with those raiders.

It was built at a rapid pace, and almost three years later, the prototype of the castle appeared on the vast land.

If you want to build such a large building, you must need a lot of materials, even if the black stones can be found everywhere on the Burning Eagle Plateau, but just from the time when Grush walked on the Burning Eagle Plateau before, he did not see a large number of black stones around him, he knew that it took a lot of time and energy to build these cities, and even the construction time had to be counted in years.

From these not cumbersome words, Grush felt the hard work of the builders back then, as well as ...... A large number of casualties.

The hand that turned the page trembled slightly, Grush took a deep breath and calmed his agitated emotions, such emotions are not suitable for thinking, these things can be talked about later, the most important thing now is to find some crucial evidence - some key evidence that can make Sir Raven sure of his power to search for the ruins of the Arcane Empire near Marat!

After much thought, Grush still thought that was the most likely, but in order to accommodate Sir Raven's emotions and gain reading privileges, he chose to postpone the matter.

"Mr. Asher. Grush, who was sitting at his desk, suddenly called out to the deacon behind him.

Asher looked at him suspiciously, and Grush looked back and asked, "Have you read this record of the founding of the city?"

"No, how can it be ......," Asher laughed, "Deacons like us are not allowed to look through books without the permission of our lord, all we can do is clean, regular inventory, and embalming." Other than that, we are not allowed to enter here. โ€

"So ......"

Grush stepped aside and held up the book of the founding of the city, pointing to the tear marks on it: "Who tore these pages off?"

In the flickering firelight, Grush saw the momentary consternation on Asher's faceโ€”his eyes widened, his mouth open, his hands resting on his chest, and he gasped.

"Ha, ha, ha......"

Grush did not put the book up, and in the light of the kerosene lamp, Asher saw between the two pages, near the spine, mixed with shredded paper that had not been completely torn off.

At Grush's reminder, Asher saw those things, and her heart began to beat wildly.

"No, impossible ......"

The deacon's right hand grasped the collar of his chest, the neckline had tightened his neck, and the veins on his forehead were pounding.

He muttered to himself in pain, disbelief written in his eyes.

Seeing him like this, Grush sighed: "Mr. Asher, you calm down first, does anyone have the authority to this library? It is difficult to find out who has entered this presumed prisoner, we don't know when these pages were torn off, but we can at least confirm a range. โ€

Under Grush's comfort, Asher also slowly calmed down, he followed Grush's train of thought to think, and after thinking for a while, he said: "There are only a few of us deacons, in addition, there are the master and the other two masters, they are the brothers of the master, and, ...... There are a few more young masters!"

"Could it be an outsider?" asked Grush.

"Impossible!" Asher shook his head, "There are a few masters who have recently entered here, and it is impossible for the masters to do such a thing!"

"Really......"

Grush glanced down at the broken book and frowned, "Mr. Asher, I think the most important thing now is to take the book and tell Sir Raven about it." Those pages may contain some important information, but now they have been torn out......"

"Yes, yes!"

After listening to Grush's words, Asher nodded again and again as if he had grasped some life-saving straw, and hurriedly said: "You have to tell the master about this!

Grush took one last look at the dark library, nodded and said, "Good!"
