Chapter 288, "The Book of Cagliostro"
While Master Gu Yi and Chen Lin'an were improving their strength in the mirror world, Stephen Strange also finished washing, walked out of the room and walked towards the library with a stack of books in his arms.
As of yesterday, he had read all these books, so he is going to the library to find Wang today to prepare a new batch of books.
This feeling of being surrounded by knowledge all the time and fully absorbing it has not been experienced for a long time. Stephen Strange felt like he was back in college. At that time, he also spent every day in the library, reading books, write thesis.
Moreover, his university library and Kamal Taj's library have one similarity, that is, the librarian is unsmiling and always looks very serious.
Stephen Strange was thinking to himself as he stepped into the library lightly and placed the book on the library table.
The strange thing is that Wang didn't know where he went today, and there was no one in the library.
Stephen Strange looked around when he saw this, and then shouted from time to time: "King? Are you there?"
"I don't know where these books are, you have to help me."
After calling in circles in the library for a moment, Stephen Strange also confirmed that Wang was indeed not in the library now.
He didn't want to waste time finding and putting them back one by one. If he had this time, he might as well read two more books, and then let Wang put them away when Wang came back. After all, Wang was the librarian, and the position of each book was He remembers them all.
Stephen Strange was muttering to himself about the contents of the book while looking at the ancient and exquisite magic weapon drawn on the page that resembled an eye.
While Stephen Strange was reading a book, he also took out an apple from his arms. This was something he took while having breakfast, and it was just ready to eat now.
"Crack!" The crisp chewing sound echoed in the empty library. Stephen Strange leaned back in his chair comfortably, looking at the books on the table, and turning another page from time to time.
They are all equally gifted and have made rapid progress in learning magic.They are all equally full of personality and have their own unique opinions on everything.They all have their own ideas and ignore the advice of others.
At that time, after the introduction, Wang stopped Stephen Strange from continuing to ask about the dark ritual, took the book back and put it away.
Wang also introduced these to him when he came to the library before.
Especially the current librarian king, he believes that although Stephen Strange is very talented in magic, he is too anxious, so he has never been allowed to borrow books here, unless he has the permission of the ancient master.
He took the book down and flipped through it, and found that several pages were missing.
He beheaded the previous librarian while the Ancient One Master was away, and then defected from Kama Taj with the pages recording the dark rituals.
Now that the king was away and there was no one in the library, Stephen Strange suddenly thought that this was a good time to satisfy his curiosity.
When he raised his head between reading, he suddenly noticed the unusual bookshelf opposite, the books that were locked with chains and still glowing with magic.
Although knowledge is shared in Kama Taj, because these magic books are too esoteric and risky to practice, it is generally not easy to borrow these books under the strict review of the librarian.
Thinking of this, he put down the apple in his hand, took a few bites of it, and walked quickly to the bookshelf where Master Ancient One's private collection was stored.
This eye-like magic weapon is the Eye of Ajimoto. On the page, next to its specific image, the opening and manipulation methods of this magic weapon are written in detail.
He believed that with his intelligence, no magic book was obscure or incomprehensible.
"The Supreme Mage Ajimoto, and the Eye of Ajimoto, a treasure that can control time."
The reason why Wang was unwilling to lend these books to Stephen Strange was because he was too similar to the dark mage who defected from Kama Taj.
After thinking for a moment, he also looked at the bookshelf in the library, picked up a book and flipped through it while waiting for Wang to return to the library.
To put it bluntly, he is a stubborn ass, and he is very stubborn and stubborn at all.
Because he is dead now, and these pages were taken away by him at the time, there is no way to retrieve the missing pages now.
"So do I have to spend time finding where they are and putting them back one by one? What a waste of time."
This book is "The Book of Cagliostro". He wanted to take a look at this book last time, so he asked the king about these books.
After seeing a familiar cover, he also unlocked the chain and took the book off the shelf.
To put it nicely, such a character means perseverance. Once you decide on something, you will work hard towards it and never give up no matter how difficult it is.
Although Wang had repeatedly warned him not to eat while reading, as there was a risk of contaminating the paper, Stephen Strange had this habit since he was a child and it was difficult to change, so as a compromise, he tried to eat some juice and liquid. Less, less likely to contaminate books.
Stephen Strange thought to himself as he sat in front of the table.
These books are all the private collection of the ancient mage. They are some relatively esoteric and seemingly obscure magic books.
Opening the "Book of Cagliostro", it contains dense Sanskrit records about the mystery of time, as well as the experiences and experiences of past mages in exploring time.
According to Wang's explanation, the missing pages in this book were taken away by a mage who fell into darkness. That person was called Casilla. He was originally as talented and full of personality as him, but due to excessive The pursuit of power fell into darkness.
"This doesn't seem to be difficult." Stephen Strange looked at it carefully, then thought about it, and felt that there seemed to be no difficulty for him.
"It would be great if I could try it." Stephen Strange murmured to himself, took a bite of the apple, and continued to read the book.
Behind the Eye of Ajimoto are the missing pages. Because the paper recording these is quite thick, even though there are only a few pages missing, the gaps appear to be very obvious.
Looking at the missing pages, Stephen Strange shook his head with regret.
