Chapter 999 The Decline of the Vampire Tribe 34
There really is a study here, a study!
Looking at the rows of books on the bookshelves on the left and right, Xining's eyes lit up: "Can I take a look?"
Charlie's surprise passed for a moment: "Okay, please."
When Xining walked to the bookshelf, it felt like standing in front of a treasure cave. In this era, a single scripture is already at the level of a wealthy person, and there are books all around here. Only the library at the church headquarters has such financial and material resources.
She looked around, stretched out her hand, and took out a book. It's handwritten on heavy vellum paper, and even the illustrations are drawn by hand. In eight hundred years, if it is taken to an auction house, it can fetch millions of dollars, or even tens of millions of dollars.
She looked around and saw that there was a desk and chair next to her, so she walked over, put the book on the table, and read it carefully. This is a book that describes the history of the continent and ancient times. Some of the history in it must have been erased by the church in order to control the ignorant people. Moreover, this kind of book has been prohibited from being published and is sealed in the deepest part of the headquarters library.
Dracula and Charlie sat down on the sofa nearby and started talking.
The topic of communication started with pleasantries and gradually got to the point about what we have done in the past fifty years.
Dracula explained his purpose: "The church headquarters sent Versace and the last descendant of the Vitonas family to assassinate me. I underestimated the enemy for a moment and was injured, so I came here to hide for a while. But this Versace is really very capable. , inform him, if you encounter him, leave immediately, and never have a direct conflict, they are not opponents.”
"Versace!" Charlie sighed softly and clasped his fingers on the table next to him: "It is said that he is the number one hunter. Nowadays, there are more and more highly skilled hunters. The church has specially trained and recruited a group of them for this purpose, specifically... In order to deal with us, I don’t know how to eliminate the vampires once and for all!”
Dracula thought for a moment and turned his head: "Maybe we can ask her."
"She?" Charlie also turned around and saw a teenage girl who was reading a book at the desk: "She is human, and she is still very young."
Dracula dispelled Charlie's concerns with one sentence: "But her soul is very interesting, and maybe she has different ideas."
Xi Ning was reading happily. This book is very good. It actually has a description of the ancient continent. At that time, the planet was just a piece of land. Later, due to the movement of the earth's crust, it was divided into several pieces, which slowly separated, as if slowly drifting away in the sea. As a result, animals and plants differentiated and took on different forms according to the climate at different longitudes and latitudes.
This book will definitely be banned. It explains scientific concepts, continental drift and the theory of evolution. Not everything was created by God!
However, the structure of her planet may be very suitable for the current sect, because her planet is being created and should change according to her preferences in the future. She is the main god, so her planet was created by God.
Of course, her planet was not created in seven days. It is still raining now, and it has been raining for a long time. It must have been quiet for a long time before, maybe hundreds of millions of years.
Mo Ming: "It's more than a billion years."
More than a billion years, she was a little surprised. Is it that long? However, the concepts of time and space are different from the current world and different from many planes. If science progresses a little, it can be understood. If almost all of them are illiterate like here, it will be useless. They may also be considered heretics and be tied to the square and burned to death.
"Do you understand?" Charlie stood beside her at some point.
Xining turned around and saw Dracula sitting far away, holding a cup in his hand and drinking. If it’s not red wine, it should be… it’s not a cold drink anyway.
She smiled: "You should understand now."
Charlie seemed to have grasped the key point in the words: "You won't be able to understand it in the future?"
She turned her head and thought: "It's possible!"
She has been enshrined as a god, possesses divine status, and can recognize all languages and characters. This is the advantage of being a god. You don’t have to learn a language by death. When the mission is over and the body owner returns, the body will be returned to the original owner. Some memories can be retained, but the knowledge and abilities cannot be retained.
Charlie was surprised that not many people could read at this time. It's probably just a pretense, as in many portraits, the ladies and girls holding books in their hands may not necessarily be literate. So he asked: "What does the book say?"
Xining rolled his eyes: "You don't understand Latin?"
At least he knew it was Latin. Charlie replied: "I know a little bit, but I can't understand some of them. For example, what is this paragraph about?"
The corner of Xi Ning's mouth raised slightly: "This paragraph says that when fish want to escape from dangerous water, some jump to the shore, wait until the danger has passed, and then jump into the water. Gradually, their fins become stronger and stronger, turning into legs. , could also breathe longer on land, and eventually walked on land and became land animals.”
After reading, she turned to look at Charlie: "Right?"
"Yes!" Charlie understood what Dracula meant. This girl did have a very interesting soul.
Xining turned to Dracula and asked: "How long will we live here?"
Dracula held the wine glass and said: "You can stay as long as you want."
Xining looked around at the books in the study, counting the time.
Mo Ming: "No, I've just scanned all the books here. You can find all the books you want. It's important to do business!"
Come on, it’s in your database, but it’s not in my eyes. After the mission was completed and she returned, she wouldn't let her see it for about a page, and there was a kick into the mission. She wants to read a book!
Mo Ming: "No need to look. When you become stronger in the future, all the data will be there."
Xining turned to Charlie and asked: "Have you read all the books here?"
Charlie answered honestly: "I've seen it all."
Xining: "How long did it take?"
Charlie thought for a while: "It must have taken more than two hundred years. But I didn't read it all the time, intermittently." Could it be that he wanted to stay here for a long time and finish reading the book?
He also reminded: "Some books are written in other languages. You need to find someone who understands this language..."
He stopped immediately when he remembered that she was still human. But it’s quite interesting. There was a human next to the vampire, so why didn’t he eat it as food?
Xining thought for a while: "Let's forget it. Watch it when you have time, and leave as soon as you go."
He turned to Dracula and said, "No need to stay here. I'm just curious and don't really like reading."
"He said he didn't like it. His eyes lit up when he came in just now." Dracula put down his wine glass and walked over: "Don't think about anything else, we have plenty of time."
"You have time, but I don't." Xining said seriously: "I still need to find a suitable man, get married, have children in the future, and be buried in the ancestral grave of my husband's family after I die."
Now Charlie smiled. This human being not only has an interesting soul, but also interesting words: "You don't want to be a vampire and have unlimited life?"
