Chapter 481 "Jade Record" and "Star Record"
In Horn's meaningful eyes, the dejected Aigalang and several other self-pitying demon hunters were sent to the Holy Trinity An education team.
With the attitude of these demon hunters, there might be a few more demon hunters in Horn's team in the future.
Although Horne's team currently includes Gilo, he did not drink the magic potion after all.
The witcher possesses four skills: tracking, assassination, disguise, and protection. He has one loyalty.
Guillot is a veteran player who followed Horn on his journey of hard work, and he even participated in the bloody battle at Long Bridge.
So Gilo may not be that great, but he is indeed reliable. Horn believes that the probability of him being a treacherous person is still very low.
If a demon hunter joins the Cheka team, it will probably be more efficient than it is now.
Ask people to block the entrance and exit of this underground palace, and build a giant spider experimental breeding farm outside as a cover.
After Horn asked everyone to shut up, he got on the boat, braved the drizzle, sailed through the ripples of Nanze Lake, and took Jeanna back to the Mechanical Palace on Qiumu Island.
When he changed his clothes and went to the study, he didn't see Shilov.
On the contrary, Catherine was sitting in front of the round table, frowning and flipping through the books she brought from the underground palace.
Unlike Karl and Miterny, they need to be trained first and then taught by the monks of the Holy Fathers.
Due to Catherine's special status, she went to Qiumu Island to take classes and learned directly from Shilov and Horn one-on-one.
Based on her current attainments alone, her level of natural theology and "Holy Word of Salvation" has almost surpassed that of Jeanne.
"Where's Shilov?" Horn knocked on the round table in front of Catherine.
"Shilov is sleeping. I asked Giles to inform her. She has to wait for a while." Frowning, Catherine put down the book in her hand, seemingly dissatisfied with Horn interrupting her train of thought.
"Can you understand these words?" Horn asked with hope.
After all, Catherine is also a master of witch studies and has undergone complete training in witches and wizards. Maybe she can also read it?
"This is snake writing, very obscure. I don't know much about it, so I can only guess." Catherine closed the book in her hand, revealing the paper with a few words written on it.
"Snake script, is it the script of a small tribe? Is it the script of the indigenous people of Black Snake Bay?" Horn sat next to Catherine and looked at the words on the paper.
"How is it possible? Snake script was born out of the original El language, a script created by the Priory of Scaling."
As if remembering something, Catherine covered her mouth with a fan He smiled and said: "They insisted that this was the 'orthodox' El script, but they were soon slapped in the face by the ancient books that the Secret Party bought from the Flesh and Blood Palace.
They still insisted that it was the Flesh and Blood Palace. Forged, this is the orthodox one, and it has been used to this day."
Horn looked at a dozen words: "Is this the title you translated?"
"Yes." She picked up the pen, suppressed her smile, and drew on the two names. "Maybe you found it right. This is really a relic left by Aunt Shilov. Of course, it may also be my translation. Wrong.”
The two circled names on the paper are "Essential Notes on Jade (Sefaye Shilof)" and "Notes on Stars (Sefaye Shilo)". Fu School)》.
Sefaye, is this the name of Grandma Shilov?
So Shilov is actually a surname, and her so-called grandmother didn’t even give her a serious name.
Horn hesitated for a while whether to show these books to Shilov.
Would she be sad if she knew her mother's attitude? He wasn't sure.
Horn didn’t want to make Shilov sad, but after all, this was related to the Star Cast Gear and various previous secrets, and he couldn’t hide it from her forever.
With such a sick mother, it is better to recognize the reality sooner rather than later.
“Where are the other books?”
“Isn’t this being translated?” Catherine said coquettishly, “If you hadn’t come in to interrupt me, I would have translated them all.”
"Okay, okay, then you continue reading, I won't interrupt."
Sitting opposite Catherine, Horn picked up the book called "Jade Jade Record" and read the rugged words inside, fell into silence.
This kind of snake writing that no one knows is probably the reason why the demon hunters discarded it as a miscellaneous book.
Books signed by Grandma Shilov, the strange mechanical palace on Qiumu Island, advanced ether research, blood slave Afu, hairy zombies...
Connect all the clues together , Horn vaguely had the answer in his heart.
Then Serfaye is either a witch from the Hermitage of Scales, or a vampire who cooperates with the Hermitage of Scales.
Maybe we have to look for clues from the Hermitage of Scales? This situation is getting more and more complicated. "Horn, what are you looking at?"
While he was concentrating on thinking, the voice of Shilov in his ear scared Horn so much that the books in his hands fell to the ground.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw Jeanne pushing Shilov's wheelchair. She tilted her head to look at Horn's face expressionlessly, and the wolf's tail behind her was curled up like a dog.
It seems that she is in a good mood today.
"Nothing, nothing." Horn bent down and was about to pick up the book, but Shilov's upper body was very flexible and her movements were quick, and she picked up the book on the ground before Horn.
"What is this? Jade Record? Sefaye... Shilov!"
The curly tail straightened suddenly, and the wolf ears on the top of the head stood up. Horn could clearly see it , all the soft hair on her tail exploded and became fluffy.
Catherine, who was still translating, raised her head and blinked in surprise: "You, do you understand the words on this?"
"Ah?" Shilov looked up as if she had just woken up from a dream, "Why can I understand it? What kind of text is this, and why can I understand it?"
Horn stood up and touched it gently. Shilov's head.
"No need to comfort me." Raising her head, Shilov's tail gradually lowered, "I was just too shocked. I'm sorry, I lost my temper. I will translate it for you now."
Horn and Catherine looked at each other, and gently rubbed Shilov's ears: "No need to force it, you can rest first, we will talk about it in a few days."
It seemed to prove that he did not take this seriously. With this matter in mind, Shilov opened the book in her hand and began to read silently, regardless of Horn's advice.
Horn had no choice but to squat next to Shilov and wait.
Almost ten minutes passed, but Shilov had no intention of stopping. She opened her emerald-colored pupils and stared at the words on the page, her eyes unmoved.
It’s just that her reading speed is getting slower and slower, and sometimes she even has to turn back.
This is different from Shilov who reads ten lines at a time. With her brain, she actually needs to read back?
It wasn't until Jeanne accidentally hit her head on the desk while she was dozing off that the crisp sound made Shilov wake up.
"Sorry, I accidentally got fascinated by it." Shilov took a deep breath and closed the book in his hand.
“What’s going on here?” Catherine couldn’t help but ask.
“Do you know what Jade Record is?”
Seeing Catherine deep in thought, Horn at a loss, Jeanne sleeping, Shilov turned his wheelchair to the round table and put down the book.
"The Jade Record is an alchemy classic from the Kingdom of Seven Hills. It mainly introduces the principles of alchemy." Putting his hands in front of his knees and pressing his tail, Shilov introduced slowly.
"Different from our current alchemy, there were no witches at that time, so it was just a normal skill. The alchemist is considered the originator of today's pharmacists.
Due to the "Jade Record", in order to keep it secret, the alchemist used There are a lot of code words and metaphors. This "Essay on Jade" is an annotation to analyze what each image represents.
And Ama... translated and corrected the book herself. A lot of new content has been added.
It aims to explore the essence of "Jade Record", telling the whole world as an alchemical process, describing various transformations and differences before and after.
To be honest, if these contents are spread, there will definitely be a new school in the interpretation of "Cuiyulu"
"So, in a sense, it is a philosophical book? It has nothing to do with Star Casting Gear and your life experience?" Horn looked directly into Shilov's eyes.
Shilov stroked the cover of the book: "There are a lot of handwritten notes in it. I guess grandma must have read it often and made notes in the book. Maybe it has something to do with the secret of the star-casting gear.< br>
There are a lot of obscure things in this book, and I will try my best to translate them all within two months.”
Seeing that Shilov deliberately did not mention the issue of life experience, Horn hurriedly talked about it. He opened the topic and said to Catherine with a smile: "Okay, then our ancient library is more like a real..."
"No, I'm afraid this book can't be put in the library." Shilov interrupted Horn.
"Why?"
"My grandma just revised the Notes, and there is something wrong with the identity of the Notes." Shilov opened the first page of the book.
"The author of "Jade Notes" is called the Solidor clan." Shilov paused, "The Solidor clan of the thirteen vampire clans."
