This row of beautiful flowery text, it can be guessed that Ms. Margaret was the one who wrote it. But it seems that the note was not sent, so Augustine may not ever have known that Margaret also loved him, and this unspoken love is buried here forever, in the dark.
In Angel’s mind, there seems to be a picture of two people who love each other dearly, obviously truly in love with each other, but for a variety of reasons they cannot really express it, finally, a great upheaval caused the two to be separated forever. This love did not bear fruit, but these withered emotions are still preciously kept here, eternally.
These series of letters tells a short story, and this romantic story tells one of a secret mutual love. Unfortunately, the ending does not seem to be good.
Angel lamented: Being teased by fate. Let go of these letters and no longer pay attention to them.
No matter how much emotion he felt, he was nothing but an outsider. Nightfall City was unearthed tens of thousands of years ago, that is to say, this sad love story, it was at least ten thousand years ago, or even longer. A story that has long been covered with the dust of time, it is not necessary to dwell on whether it completed or not.
There is not much useful information in the letters, and he needs to search elsewhere.
Margaret’s room, Angel searched it over again, although there was no harvest, but some more details from the room, he had some doubts in mind-
Since stepping down the stairs, he has been to many rooms, except for some special items, everything else has rotted or weathered for too long.
But in this room, Angel does not see any signs of weathering, even the desk is as clean as new, the silk quilt on the bed is smooth and cool, and there was also a scattered faint fragrance all around. Clothes, powder, makeup, and so on, which are extremely vulnerable to damage, have not deteriorated, just as if it was a mere moment ago that Margaret dressed up in this room.
Is it because there is a special interest in this particular place that caused the time to be frozen here, or was it intentionally done by the Nightmare Plane’s ‘Project Reality’? These are difficult puzzles to solve, or at least Angel cannot rack his brain to understand them.
Leaving Margaret’s bedroom, Angel goes to another bedroom, where the style can be inferred to be the original owner of the whole place.
Angel searched the room for a long time, but there was no sign of anything of value. According to Angel’s many years of living in an aristocratic family, he always felt that the bedroom of large families should have a place to hide things, just like his dead father, whose bedroom had a secret hidden room dedicated to storing valuable belongings.
So after looking around, although Angel did not find anything of value in the room, he did not stop, still unwavering in looking for something hidden.
In the end, he really did find a secret pa.s.sage.
The secret pa.s.sage lies under the bed and opens up with a rectangular lid, making the secret pa.s.sage look very deep.
Angel drilled into the secret pa.s.sage, walked a few steps to reach a sealed s.p.a.ce, and saw that the s.p.a.ce was not large, about three or four cubic meters. In this s.p.a.ce, there is a bookshelf and some seemingly useless items.
Angel estimates that this is where the owner’s treasures are hidden, with a trace of excitement, he took the lead to walk towards the bookshelves.
There are three rows of bookshelves, each filled completely with books, Angel casually took out one of the books and read: Volume 1 Extraction Method of Treasured Materials
Advertis.e.m.e.nts
“This is an alchemy book, and is this book also not apart of Mentor’s collection?” Angel thought in his heart, and then turned to a few pages, now the content involves a very deep level of alchemy knowledge, not like a shallow alchemy book at all.
Angel took out a few more books, all of them were alchemy-related books, many of which were unique, and none Sanders has ever collected in his library!
Angel is happy in his heart, this can be regarded as an unexpected gain!
By the time all the books on the shelf had been recorded, Angel found them even more precious, some alchemy theories in the books already require a legendary or even higher level wizard to perform. These are absolutely precious books, he doesn’t know the ident.i.ty of the original owner of these books, or why they could collect so many rare alchemy books.
But after recording the books, Angel was in a rare mood of clarity and went to the treasure room on the other side. He did not know it before, but while recording the books, he also learned some knowledge about alchemy. All things here are basically related to alchemy, and they are extremely well crafted.
Unfortunately, Angel can’t take any of them away. Needless to say, they will disappear unexpectedly, just like in the previous rooms. Again, these alchemy tools are also so tall, can he even carry them with him?
Therefore, Angel can only give them up. However, this does not affect his good mood, harvesting so many precious books, he has been very happy with this trip!
Leaving the bedroom, Angel came to the last room on the second floor.
This room is located on the left, and according to the aristocratic customs of respecting the left, this room should happen to be the best of all the rooms. So Angel is looking forward to this room the most.
When he pushed open the door, the first thing he saw was a big laddered bookshelf, Angel’s eyes lit up!
He didn’t expect the last room to be a study!
… …
The layout of the room is very simple, a laddered bookshelf, a table, and several oil paintings hanging on the wall. Angel naturally rushed to the bookshelf at first sight, but when he opened the bookshelf and turned over a few books, he looked disappointed.
There are a lot of books on the shelf. But it was basically all about “Nightfall City” which includes official doc.u.ments, building permit approval letters, horticultural letters, as well as similar traffic layouts, urban defense facilities and other related books. These bits and pieces of doc.u.ments are piled up throughout the bookshelves.
Alas, Angel sighed and put all the books back where they belonged. Although there is no current use, but at least he knows that the city is not called “Flower Garden Labyrinth”, but “Nightfall City”, this is also a kind of harvest.
For the ident.i.ty of the owner here, Angel also has some speculation, after all, to be able to endorse such important official doc.u.ments, they should also be in an important position. They may even be in the core management of Nightfall City.
However, none of this matters anymore. After all, Nightfall City has long been in ruins in reality.
Angel closed the gla.s.s window of the shelf and walked slowly to the table in the study. When he first came in, he noticed that there was an open book on the desk with a quill inserted in ink, as if someone had just sat at the table to record something.
Angel sat down in the chair and picked up the open book.
The book is a journal, the page opened had traces of meaningful writing, but the owner seems to have written only half, for some reason they did not continue writing.
Angel turned this journal to the first page to see what was written.
Angel’s eyes widened when he saw the first row of text at the beginning of the first page:
< Singularity Scattering Meditation >!
It’s a meditation book?! This is the first book of meditation that Angel has seen in the Nightmare Plane, right in the middle of the Sewer Labyrinth. Is this the special Guidance method that Mentor mentioned!
Angel is excited, if this is really the Guidance Method that Sanders had mentioned, if so, his future wizard path will use this as a starting point!
Angel thought of this and decided to keep looking down at the text. Suddenly he thought of what his Mentor said. Even if one memorizes this Guidance Method in the Nightmare Plane, they still forget it soon after they get back to the Wizard Plane.
Angel is not in a hurry to read it, he uses the Holographic Tablet to record every page first, before starting to read the journal from the beginning.
