Chapter 239: Secret of the Sea

The candle flames burned slowly on the wall. Every candle here was a precious moon candle. Its light could suppress and purify pollution wherever it shone, but here it was only used for lighting.

There were bookshelves on both sides, and the candlelight could barely illuminate the names on the spines of the books, but if you wanted to see the details, all you could see was a blur. The reality here was not stable, just like the towering dome, with only a rough silhouette.

This is the forbidden book room.

Beatrice was now moving quickly through the endless bookshelves. She was not supposed to be here, but she forced her way in using her identity as the Pope.

The gatekeeper did not try to stop her and let her come in.

Beatrice was an investigator, and she could feel that some eyes were secretly watching her, and they would take action if she did anything out of line. Perhaps they wanted to appease her, or perhaps coming to the forbidden book room would not bring too much trouble. In short, they acquiesced.

Beatrice felt her heart pounding, and she knew she had won the bet the moment she stepped into the room.

The candlelight would let her wear the triple crown symbolizing the Pope, and would definitely give her some power, even if it was very small.

The Forbidden Book Room is the core of the core of the Holy See. The doctrine of the Candlelight Society is to collect secrets, keep secrets, bury history, and seal the past.

This is the cemetery carefully selected by the Candlelight Society. Countless contaminated knowledge is sealed here and will never be deciphered.

Even if Beatrice is the Pope, she has no right to leak the books and knowledge here. There are the most stringent protective inscriptions here, which even the Candlelight Society itself cannot replicate. This is the true sanctuary of the Candlelight Society.

Although she couldn't take it away, she had the right to browse it. After all, Beatrice was the Pope, even if only in name.

Beatrice pretended not to notice the scrutinizing gaze, and turned the pages of the book with trembling hands, her fingers running over the secrets.

Finally her gaze stopped on the records from thousands of years ago.

Beatrice's pupils shrank instantly, and she felt as if thousands of needles pierced her mind, slowly stirring as her thoughts shifted. The words in front of her gradually stood up from the paper, slowly spinning and dancing with the tingling pain in her brain.

I'm hallucinating again.

The severe headache was like a warning, and she forced herself to suppress the uncomfortable feeling, which was the cry of her body being polluted.

There is a reason why this knowledge is classified as a banned book. The pollution brought by reading this knowledge is direct and huge.

Fortunately, she was an investigator, and this extraordinary path could exempt her from most contamination when investigating secret history. She took a few deep breaths, and the hallucinations in front of her eyes dissipated a little.

She closed the book, rubbed her forehead and pondered for a while, trying to eliminate the knowledge that would bring pollution, and spoke from the link: Scepter: "I suspect that Castel traveled back to a thousand years ago, when the pollution in the sea broke out!"

After saying this, she let out a long breath and waited for a response.

Can it be successfully sent out? This is the Forbidden Library. There are not many places in the world with tighter defenses than this place. The waves of the Sea of ​​No Consciousness cannot even reach here. Can this place really connect to the outside world? In the silence, Beatrice quietly counted her heartbeats. If this place cannot connect, she will leave here and return to her room to send it again. This is her first cautious attempt.

Let me see how far this strange link that suddenly appeared can go.

Beatrice held her breath without realizing it.

French Fries: "Uh, what do you mean by a thousand years and pollution explosion?"

A crisp voice broke the silence. Beatrice took a deep breath and looked around the empty forbidden book room, trying hard to control herself from showing any strangeness.

It actually worked.

This kind of link can really overcome numerous blockades and ignore the tight seal of the Forbidden Book Room. Even the Sea of ​​Unconsciousness cannot reach this place, and this kind of link can actually connect stably.

The sound of French fries was exceptionally clear in the quiet room, without even a hint of distortion, as if the speaker was standing right next to him and asking him questions.

Beatrice paused and slowly told the two of them the story.

Scepter: "I'll explain in advance that this part of knowledge is taboo in most churches. I'm just repeating it and it will pollute you. Do you know that?"

Ken nodded subconsciously, but suddenly felt something was wrong and turned to look at Jeremiah.

Jeremiah snorted coldly and said nothing.

French Fries: "I've seen them a little bit. They look like worms, black in color, and they move slowly."

Scepter: "That is physical pollution. The rumors about the Sea God Church hoarding pollution are indeed true. What I am talking about is the pollution caused by spreading the secret teachings. Are you two extraordinary people? If you are not extraordinary people, then the harm caused by pollution is not great. But if you want to touch the extraordinary people, then pollution will be your death."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Ken and Jeremiah looked at each other. The extraordinary was still too far away for them, but the threat of Castel's disappearance was real, especially now that the sea was slowly drying up. French Fries: "Tell me, Lady Scepter, this is very important to us!"

Scepter: "Well, this has to start with the mutation a thousand years ago. It is said that many mutations occurred at the same time, and the sea was just one of them, but this also caused the Orthodox Church to stay away from the ocean."

Scepter: "It is said that the sky fell to the ground, the sea was polluted, countless monsters emerged from it, and there was no living creature in the sea overnight."

Scepter: "The Church of Poseidon, well, this part is not very relevant. Anyway, the Church of Poseidon ceased to exist overnight. Their headquarters was located on the sea. When other churches went to check it out, only ruins were left. Of course, that was hundreds of years later."

Scepter: "The four major churches worked together to solve various anomalies, but they were also severely damaged and had to shrink their spheres of influence. The religious wars that had been going on for hundreds of years ended so hastily, and then there was a thousand years of recuperation. It was not until the last few decades that some churches tried to contact the sea."

Scepter: "In fact, until now, most extraordinary people have nowhere to go, and they will not go near the sea. The pollution in the sea is extremely poisonous to extraordinary people."

The explanation of the scepter ended, and silence returned to the link. After a while, French Fries asked again:

"Ms. Scepter, you haven't told me what this has to do with Castel?"

Scepter: "It's very simple. The changes in the sea back then were just like what is happening now. The entire island was directly dug out of the sea."

Scepter: "And the island that was dug out still has a bottomless pit. Since you are in the Storm Ocean, you should know that, right?"

The captain's deep voice suddenly rang out: "Eye of the Storm."
