Chapter 25
This world is a book.
They are characters in the book, and of course they cannot escape the fate of reincarnation.
Even Ye Chenzhi, the god of this world, is the same.
If no one comes to change all this, the characters in the book will just repeat the same story again and again, and every time it is read, it is a new reincarnation.
Could it be that the spiritual seance ceremony performed by the Jian family was the reason why he wore a book?
Thinking of this, Jian Zhi hated the old man outside.
The top priority is to find a way home.
If he is kept in this book, he may slowly turn into a character in the book and repeat the fate of reincarnation.
The old gods are dying, and new gods must be established.
Who does the old god refer to?Ye Chenzhi?
Jian Zhi’s face slowly turned pale. He clenched the buttons in his pocket, feeling a chill rising from the bottom of his heart.
So, the Law of the World appeared in front of him and told him to kill Ye Chenzhi…
Isn’t it just to let him replace Ye Chenzhi and become the god of this world?
Jian Zhi suddenly stood up and opened the door of the reception room.
The people outside all turned their heads and looked at him together. Jian Luzhong and the owner of the house got two chairs from somewhere and sat in the corridor. Behind them stood a group of maids. They looked very weird, like a scene from a horror movie.
“Where is the library?” Jian Zhi asked, “Take me there now.”
Although he had spoken, none of the maids in the corridor dared to move without the owner’s permission. The maid who led them in before raised her eyes and glanced at Jian Zhi’s face.
This young man was so impressive that she subconsciously wanted to take him with him, but the teachings she had received since childhood forced her to obey the orders of the family master.
“What do you want to do in the library?” The head of the house stood up from the chair, “I will take you there.”
“There are some things I want to check,” Jian Zhi said, “What do you mean by the new gods?”
“It’s you, Jian Zhi, you are the new god we summoned.”
The head of the family’s expression became garrulous again, and he stared at Jian Zhi feverishly:
“The reaction of the coat of arms to you has explained everything. They have chosen you and are willing to protect you. Our family’s destiny has been fulfilled. The new god has descended on the descendants of our family and will surely lead us to glory…”
Jian Zhi automatically filtered what he said.
Ten days ago, he was still locked on the judgment stand and had to rely on calling on the evil god to survive.
Now, they say he is God.
Are you sick?!
Jian Zhi glanced at the group of people behind him without revealing anything. Jian Luzhong followed him and the head of the family, looking in a trance, as if he had just suffered a major blow.
The head of the family walking in front of him was walking as fast as flying, with incredible speed.
The head of the family took him all the way down to the bottom of the castle.
Through a long secret passage, a brass door appeared in front of Jian Zhi.
The library is a semi-underground building with gorgeous interior decoration and windproof and waterproof treatment. As soon as you walk in, you feel like you have entered an enchantment, and not even a fly can fly in from the outside.
The head of the family stopped and said, “This is it.”
The dome is very low, the arch structure shrinks from the sides to the center, and the stone beams and columns are inlaid with fine metal lines.
The bookshelves are soaring to the ceiling, with layers scattered across them. The spines of old books are wrapped in leather, and the gilded text is faintly visible in the dim light.
The floor is covered with a thick dark carpet, the pattern is a repeating geometric pattern, the edges are outlined with silver lines, and the sound of footsteps is almost inaudible when walking around.
The air is filled with the mixed smell of paper, leather and old wood. It is quiet and closed, as if it is tightly wrapped by some invisible boundary.
Jian Zhi nodded: “Well, I can just go in and take a look myself.”
The head of the house wanted to say something else, but seeing his solemn look, he went out anyway.
The first second he walked into the library, Jian Zhi felt the strange atmosphere.
The library is actually circular. Although it has eight large floor-to-ceiling windows, the stained glass is mainly dark blue, dark red and gold, and the lines are complex and intertwined, as if countless ancient symbols have been disassembled and reassembled.
But beyond such gorgeous stained glass windows, there are actually dark stone walls.
Only the top half is exposed to the ground, but the shadows of the trees outside the window are dancing, causing the light to fall on the ground in pieces, as if forming some faint shape.
Jian Zhi stood there and did not go down immediately.
The structure of the library is like an ancient Roman Colosseum, with tall bookcases on all sides. The reading area is sunken, occupying a large area in the center of the library. Countless tree shadows fall on it, shaking constantly, making people feel a little ominous.
Jian Zhi carefully looked at the light and shadow on the ground.
Those lines are twisted, like the family crest of the Jian family, but they are not completely similar.
He walked into the bookshelves, pulled out a book at random, stood there and read it, with no intention of going down.
There was something strange everywhere in the library, and Ye Chenzhi was not around, so it was better to be careful.
Jian Zhi flipped through a few pages, but there was no content on them. He simply grabbed the book, opened it from the middle, and scanned it from beginning to end. The book turned out to be blank.
Why are there blank books in the library?
He simply changed a few more books and flipped through them one by one, but they were all blank.
What is going on in this library?With so many fake books on display, it can’t be just to show off culture, right?
Jian Zhi flipped through the pages in the library until he reached the eighteenth book, and finally the writing appeared.
It’s just that the handwriting is completely different from any kind of writing he knows.
The strange lines are twisted together, and it is completely impossible to identify what language it is. There are strange pictures on it, with blood in the darkness, and the human body is covered with various patterns.
Jian Zhi flipped through the pictures in the book. The picture on it seemed to be a ceremony.
It’s just that the words in the book are obscure and difficult to understand, and he can’t understand what this ceremony is used for.
Jian Zhi walked around the library, randomly picked out some books and flipped through them. Most of the books were blank, and the books with content had this kind of ghostly style of painting.
As for the history of the world he wanted to see, he couldn’t find it at all.
It seems that I have to go back to the manor, or go directly to the city library.
He originally thought that since the Jian family had studied secret techniques for so many years, there would be some good things in the library that could not be seen outside.
After Jian Zhi walked around most of the library and stood in front of the window in the center, he suddenly noticed that the pattern on the ground had changed.
Complex light and shadow cast on the sunken reading area, projecting a clear pattern on the floor, which is the coat of arms of the Jian family!
At the same time, the entire library began to make strange creaking noises. The sound was so small that it was almost inaudible, but it was pervasive and filled every gap in the air.
Something is wrong.
Jian Zhi walked quickly towards the door, already holding a gust of wind in his hand.
The strange noises in the air became more and more serious. Those sounds were like the sound of wind, completely toneless, and there was only a strange trembling in the ears.
The family crest made of light and shadow in the center is emitting a dazzling light.
The bells in the library rang together without stopping for a long time.
Jian Zhi suddenly raised his head and looked at the window. It turns out that once the time is up, the light and shadow outside the window will fall on the floor at the correct angle and form the current pattern.
Countless black juice seeped out from the wall. In the blank pages on the bookshelf, black worms twisted, slowly crawled out of the juice, and gathered into the central pattern.
Jian Zhi looked around and saw that there was black juice on the floor, and it was about to spread to his feet.
Jian Zhi rushed to the brass door and pushed hard. The door was locked from the outside.
His eyebrows twitched. Was this planned?!How did the old man know that he would enter the library?
Through the narrow crack in the door, Jian Zhi caught a glimpse of the scene outside.
In the dark corridor, the head of the Jian family was the leader, and Jian Luzhong knelt behind him. Both of them were facing the direction of the library, or to be precise, towards the window.
Jian Zhi suddenly turned his head, and the painting on the window seemed to come alive, breaking free from the shackles of the paint, as if something was about to break out of the picture.
Damn it, these ghosts are coming for him.
You must rush out of this room.
In the midst of lightning and flint, Jian Zhi felt a gust of wind hit the brass door, making the door magnet rattle. However, the brass door was made of someone who knew what kind of material it was made of. It actually withstood his wind, and only a few scratch marks appeared on the door.
It seems that the density is unimaginable. Is this really the kind of material this world should have?
“Jian Luzhong, what are you doing?” Jian Zhi’s voice came out through the crack in the door, with a strong sense of ridicule, “What, didn’t you just say that I am a god?”
“Killing gods requires a price.”
The two people outside the door raised their heads involuntarily.
The face of the head of the Jian family was still as fanatical, or in other words, it became more fanatical after hearing his words. He put his hands on the ground and knelt down with his whole body, as if he would kowtow to him at any time.
“Yes, killing gods has a price, but so what?”
“The Spirit Seduction Ceremony invited you, and finally opened the channel. How could I just watch the opportunity slip away… I have worked hard in the Jian family for so many years, not just to make others become new gods!”
His face was pressed against the ground and he rubbed it tenderly on the carpet, as if he wanted to blend in with the family crest on the ground.
“Everywhere in this castle is my coat of arms. If only you weren’t so curious. The coat of arms in the reception room can’t trap you. This library is my proud work.”
“The wind you just created was so beautiful…”
A look of admiration and longing appeared on the face of the head of the house. He suddenly stood up and threw himself at the crack of the door.Drinking into it:
“Eat him for me, eat him! Let us merge into one and lead to the paradise world!”
As he screamed, the paintings on the glass window suddenly became more vivid and lively. Five creatures of different shapes struggled and walked down from the glass window, all approaching Jian Zhi.
These things all have human bodies but have animal heads.
The leader had a sheep’s head, half of which had thick, plump and shiny wool, and looked extremely healthy. The other half was a terrifying skeleton with hollow eyes, looking at Jian Zhi with something unknown.
Jian Zhi made a quick decision and quickly retreated to the door while throwing a bolt of lightning at the sheep-faced man.
The lightning struck the goat-faced man on the shoulder, blowing off half of his brain.
Although only half of his face was left, not a drop of blood came out. Only the skeleton was left, smiling eerily at Jian Zhi.
Several bolts of lightning were thrown over one after another, blowing these things to pieces.
But the scary thing is that even if they lose their legs, they will still use their hands to crawl towards Jian Zhi. Even if they lose their hands, they will keep coming over.
They couldn’t feel pain or life. They just obeyed the family master’s orders and kept getting closer to Jian Zhi.
Jian Zhi hit the brass door with several bolts of lightning and strong wind, heading straight towards the crack of the door and towards the outside, trying to split the chain outside the crack of the door.
As soon as he started to force a breakthrough, the head of the Jian family and Jian Luzhong had already retreated to the depths of the corridor. Now there were only a group of maids left outside the corridor, looking at him solemnly.
They all have exactly the same face, and they are too beautiful and straight to look like real people.
The black juice that kept overflowing finally touched the instep of Jian Zhi, and a disgusting feeling rushed straight from his back.
Jian Zhi subconsciously avoided the black juice, but the floor in the room was covered with worms and juice. The only place without these things was the family crest in the middle.
However, you must not go past that place.
No matter how much Jian Zhi didn’t understand these metaphysics, he still knew that that place must be the center of the formation.
The old man of the Jian family didn’t know where he got these secrets. Does he want to take away his body, replace him, and travel back to the modern world? Wouldn’t that mean escaping from reincarnation and going back to bliss?
A tongue of fire ignited from Jian Zhi’s hand and headed towards the strange creature and worm juice in the center.
Although it couldn’t kill them, it still blocked their steps. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jian Zhi wrapped the lightning with flames and turned it into a sharp blade. With a stabbing sound, he split the chain of the brass door.
“Stop him!”
As soon as he came out, he heard the voice of the head of the Jian family changing his tone, ordering the maids to never let him escape from this corridor.
After waiting for so many years, he finally got this opportunity. The spiritual seance ceremony was successful and the reincarnation was broken.
The opportunity to break his fate was right in front of him, and he couldn’t give up.
Jian Zhi frowned slightly and looked at the maid who took a step forward towards him.
She had dark and beautiful long hair and a beautiful expression, but she suddenly pulled out a long knife from under her long skirt!
Wu Jiji’s eyes moved and locked on Jian Zhi’s direction.
This entire row of maids are actually artificial humans.
Where did this damn old man put his skills?
Hand-to-hand combat is not Jian Zhi’s strong point, and his fighting skills are completely inadequate in front of an android who specializes in killing people.
The maids and ladies were standing all over the corridor. No matter which way he ran, someone would block his escape.
The long knife was in front of him in an instant, ruthlessly pulling out a huge gash in his arm, and blood spurted out.
Jian Zhi’s face turned pale and he took several steps back. The severe pain made him almost lose his voice.
The corridor is full of androids, and behind them are rituals to eat them.
The old man hiding in the darkness stared at him, his eyes full of fanatical light.
Jian Zhi ignored the bleeding arm and instantly threw several fireballs to stop the android’s footsteps.
Those artificial humans couldn’t feel pain at all. Even if they were roasted by fire, they would continue to move forward as long as they were ordered.
Jian Zhi rushed towards the head of the Jian family. His only option now was to hold the old man hostage.
“It’s useless, you can’t escape from their hands.”
The head of the house let out a wild laugh.
“How do you think our Jian family established a foothold in District 12?”
He has painstakingly studied alchemy for many years, carried forward the experience left by his ancestors, and finally made these artificial humans that are comparable to real people, discarding all unnecessary functions, except for the purpose of killing.
It’s a pity that the number is too small, and it will never become a reality. Otherwise, he would have formed his own army long ago and become the king of the federation.
Within a few words, the maids attacked him front and back, Jian Zhi was scratched several times, and there were blood marks on his shoulders and calves.
Fortunately, despite his efforts to dodge, he did not injure the main artery, and it was not life-threatening.
Jian Zhi gritted his teeth and reached into his arms.
On one side was a pistol loaded with mithril bullets, and on the other side was Ye Chenzhi’s button.
There are eight bullets in total. Even if you use them all, you can only kill eight monsters.
The only way now…
Jian Zhi grabbed the button and threw it into the air.
“Ye Chenzhi, if you don’t come out, I’m going to die.”
