[101 – The Last Ghost]
Lin Jie smiled and bid farewell to Claude.
He watched the door of the bookstore close again, and his eyes returned to the thick stack of documents on the counter.
Since the time of crossing, he has rarely come into contact with these things, ancient ruins, remote small villages, etc., visiting them, sorting out information, and the busy life of always running around seems to have been separated in memory. long time.
Except for the period of time he just traveled through, in order to integrate into the local life and have a general understanding of Azir’s history and customs, he has never done anything related to his profession.
Oh, helping Miss Elf to reshape the meaning of the family crest is one thing, but it hasn’t officially started, it’s just in the preparatory stage.
Specifically, she had to wait for Doris to come back from her family and sort out the relevant information and give it to him.
In short, after all, he is unfamiliar in this world, and he has nothing to study if he wants to study. Now Claude has brought good things.
Lin Jie stretched out his hand and gently moved the paper, feeling better.
Since Joseph’s disciple is a first-level police inspector, and he has already told him about Morn’s identity in person, I believe that before the identity of the Ash Tree Chamber of Commerce is sent, there will be nothing to worry about like today.
That’s where the benefits of being well-connected are.
Sure enough, it is still necessary to implement the habit of daily chicken soup instillation for the guests, laying a long line and catching big fish, in order to achieve sustainable development and squeeze… No, recycle the resources of each guest to achieve a win-win situation.

“what are these?”
Mo En leaned over and looked at the information that Lin Jie was stroking casually, his eyes were like a cat that curiously stuck out its claws while the owner was working.
The cyborg girl, who was originally curious, learned a lot of knowledge at a high speed and realized her own gaps, but began to desire more knowledge.
“Documentation on a lost ancient Azir language, the text used in the sword inscription on the sword I keep in my bedroom.”
Lin Jie put her index finger against her forehead, pushed her slightly away, and said with a serious face: “This is not what you should read, you haven’t learned this level yet, so be careful looking at it and get dizzy. Up, like the three guys just passed out on the spot.”
Mo En covered his forehead and snorted, remembering the feeling of reshaping his mind that he had experienced, and took a step back subconsciously.
But because Lin Jie mentioned Jian Ming, she subconsciously recalled the Jian Ming she had seen in her mind.
The words on the documents that she glimpsed in the corner of her eyes and the sword inscription suddenly seemed to be connected. Through those words that could not be expressed, she sensed that the people living in them, spanning tens of thousands of years, belonged to A ghost that has destroyed civilization.
The wreckage of an entire era, countless incomplete information flows, passed by her eyes only at this moment.
Even just a moment of inspiration can be scary enough.
Mo En was stunned for a moment, realizing that this was indeed not something she could see. Just touching it at first glance, she felt a little hallucination. If she stared for a long time, she didn’t know what would happen.
She quickly picked up the tea set and ran up to the second floor to wash the cups.
“Remember to help me take down the sword and the documents on my desk!”
Lin Jie shouted, then looked at her slender back and sighed.
“Is it necessary to be scared like this? Children are still children. Although they are very talented, they are afraid of learning after all.”
“If one day she can take the initiative to study, she will really grow up.”
“By that time, not only the bookstore, but also an assistant for my research.”
Lin Jie shook his head slightly and looked at the yellow warning line that was still trembling in the wind. He expected that under such circumstances, there would probably be no more guests, so he walked over and simply closed the door. The sign at the door was turned to the “resting” side. .
He returned to the counter and sat down, turned on the lamp to adjust the light, and carefully read all the information again.
The order of documents organized by Joseph is based on an original text plus the corresponding research records and related documents. In total, there are 21 pages in the original text, 15 pages in the research records, and the related documents… only have the name of one book.
It can be seen that no one is really studying this text.
Lin Jie first read all the documents written by his predecessors.
There were only two researchers, named “Prit Hall” and “Trolope Rupert,” and the original text has four different parts.
Rupert studied three of the historical sections—which Lin Jie called “Religious Fever,” “Rise of the Kingdom,” and “Homomorphic Revenge”—while Hall examined the remaining bits and pieces “Customs” section.
After removing many meaningless remarks, there are three main pieces of useful information.
First, these words were obtained from a ruin excavated in the lower city. The ruins belonged to the Second Age of Azir, that is, the kingdom of Elfz during the fire-free period.
And what is recorded in it is also about the lost history.
Second, the general content researched by the two scholars is surprisingly consistent with the pictures that Lin Jie saw in the dream before.
Including from the worship and panic caused by the advent of “God”, to the rapid rise of the kingdom of Elfuz, and finally to the challenge of “God” by the last king of Elfuzi, but finally collapsed together with the country.
Add customs such as “Rites are held in the White Hall when they come of age” and “The king wears the laurel crown”.
Completely, that is what Lin Jie saw in his dream belonged to the life of the Elf King Candela.
Third, the book is called “Dark Ages: The Rise and Fall of Elfuz”, and it is currently kept in a scholar organization called the Truth Society, but these two scholars do not have access to these materials, and these materials are also private research. .
Lin Jie rubbed his temples, feeling something unexpected.
Foreseeing dreams? Or just plain sight?
But everything in the dream is still clear in my memory, and these materials can’t be fake.
At first glance, he saw that the sword inscription was an ancient script of Azir, because he had seen similar words when he was collecting information about Azir, and left a little impression.
Most of those information are also provided by the Ash Tree Chamber of Commerce, and there will be no fakes.
It seems… only by getting the history of the rise and fall of Elfz, can we further know what is going on.
Lin Jie put down the information, only to find that Mo En had put the sword beside him.
He picked up the long sword and stared at the gleaming blade as smooth as a mirror, his eyes fell on the inscription on the ridge of the sword.
Since saving Morn, in order to avoid scaring the children, he put away the sword and never looked at the sword carefully.
At this moment, after a few days, he stared at the sword for the first time after waking up from the dream of killing the gods. Suddenly, the familiar feeling came to his heart again.
Naturally, he understood what Jian Ming wrote: “When the night ends, you are the light.”
Also understood the meaning of all the rubbings.
What Hall is studying is not “customs” at all, but the ritual of passing the holy sword.
As if turning on a certain switch, Lin Jie felt the presence of Candela again, and the reflection on the smooth sword surface suddenly turned into the handsome blond elf king.
Elviz’s last ghost, the gift before his demise – his pure soul.
