Chapter 84: The Book

Back to school.

Naturally, Han Dong didn't need to go for a holy baptism and stress release.

After parting with the Celeste Knight, he imdiately returned to the Mystic Faculty.

It was only because Mr. Black and White had asked Han Dong to go directly to him after returning to the school, having important matters to discuss.

The [Stargazing Room] had already transford into a kind of dieval aristocratic room style.

On the couch by the fireplace, there was a 'strange' Mr. Black and White sitting there.

Compared to the last Mr. Black and White who wore a black mask, it felt like a completely different person.

"The aura has changed..."

Han Dong carefully sat on the opposite couch, not daring to stare at the white mask at all.

Even an afterglow glance would give him the discomfort of being completely seen through.

An ethereal and distant voice ca out from the lower end of the mask, "You're really lucky to have obtained such a 'trendous' harvest from a single three-star bounty in a bizarre situation."

This statent directly indicated that Mr. Black and White was already 'aware' of Han Dong's harvest.

"What instructions does sir have?"

"Take out the book."

The command-like words shook Han Dong's heart.

Naturally, Han Dong was reluctant to hand over the magic book he had painstakingly obtained and risked his life in this bounty mission.

But... if Mr. Black and White really wanted to take it by force, Han Dong wouldn't be able to protect it.

A leather-bound book with black stitching and an eye in the center was presented on the table.

The mont the 'magic book' ca into contact with the tabletop, a mutation occurred.

A wave of evil energy spread out around the book.

Imdiately afterwards, densely packed small eyes grew on the tabletop and even spread out.

If no action was taken, it might even spread to the entire room.

The danger was self-evident.

Han Dong was about to reach out his hand to stop it.

Crack! Mr. Black and White in front of him snapped his fingers.

The ceiling imdiately switched to the starry sky state, and along with the flickering of the starry light, these small eyes closed on their own due to the intense stimulation, and the small particle eyes all withdrew into the book, unable to spread anymore.

This kind of tactic was completely incomprehensible to Han Dong.

However, these star lights had no effect on the "original eyeball" on the book cover... It seed that this eyeball used to make the book cover was not a contaminant itself, or was of extrely high grade and not subject to the stars.

Mr. Black and White did not reach out to touch the book, but spoke faintly.

"About a week ago, I fell into a short term 'shallow dream state' during stargazing and accidentally spied an eye sneaking into the Holy City.

I took it as an ominous sign and sent a portion of the Plague Knights to investigate.

I never expected that the eye would appear in such a manner, and after all sorts of turnover, but you obtained it."

Han Dong himself didn't understand what the book was, only that it had sothing to do with creatures outside the city.

Baker, having learned only the first chapter of the book, and not even fully learned it yet, could easily manipulate ordinary people and perform all sorts of contamination.

He even introduces out-of-town creatures into his own body through evil sacrificial thods.

It was enough to reflect the high value of the book from the side.

Han Dong had intended to hide this matter and read it in private himself.

Since he was seen by Mr. Black and White in advance, there was no need to conceal anything and take the opportunity to ask about the nature of this book.

"Sir, what is this book?"

"The Book of the Dead - Eye Codex".

Not an original edition, but a kind of high-quality copy, from the hand of a 'master'.

The materials used for the cover alone are worth a fortune, and the stitching technique as well as the eye inlay level surpasses the highest stitching level of my mystical departnt, you can't even imagine the value of this book."

"The Book of the Dead - The Eye Codex?" Han Dong mouthed along under his breath.

"The higher beings outside the city are not only superior to us in basic life forms... they are also not inferior to us intellectually, and this book is the work of a certain master outside the city.

Yet such a work would flow into the abandoned sewer system of the Holy City."

"A conspiracy? Trying to use this book to dismantle the Holy City from within..."

Mr. Black and White nodded slightly, "There is a certain possibility that this book would be enough to make an ordinary knight beco its servant, if you hadn't intervened in this incident.

Even a rather talented Knight like Celeste, after exhausting her physical energy in battle, will be controlled by this book, and in a month's ti the upper noble circle as well as the [Sacred Knights] will have problems."

"This..."

Actually, Han Dong had slled the 'conspiracy' in advance.

The Baker's bad murder incident

to draw and control the local sheriff's precinct

trainee knight or knights to step in and solve it.

It was all done with a purpose.

Fortunately, the one who ended up dealing with this incident was Han Dong, who was not at all afraid of contamination, and Celeste, the best of the ordinary knights.

Otherwise, it was unimaginable that things would continue to deteriorate.

Han Dong asked, "I don't understand why the Knights have asked us to assist from the sidelines even after knowing the seriousness of this incident. Instead of just sending a lot of knights to purge?"

"Because, I'm the auditor of this thing! When you submitted your 'evidence', I personally reviewed the incident, and deliberately allowed you to continue the investigation as 'facilitators', considering your unique characteristics.

Otherwise, if soone else were to review it, the situation should be the sa as you said."

"Mr. Black and White you deliberately allowed

to delve into this incident?"

"No... I am intentionally putting you in contact with this book.

If you end up losing the battle, I will appear directly from within the scroll to finish off the Fallen... However, you did not disappoint ."

This statent caused Han Dong's heart to tremble slightly!

It was all part of Mr. Black and White's plan, and for a mont, Mr. Black and White's image was enlarging in his mind.

"Nicholas."

"Yes."

"If I submit this book directly to the council, the following three things will happen.

1.Policies will definitely be introduced in the near future to strengthen the defense of the Holy City in all aspects, and even knights will be stationed at various security branches to further enhance the internal security of the Holy City.

2. The Mysterious Association and the Magic Tutor Association will launch an investigation into the book, tracing its origins in order to launch the next large-scale operation outside of the city and attack the lair of the book's creator.

3. So occultists specializing in this area could try to parse the book and enhance our understanding of the creatures outside the city.

This is the benefit of turning in the book to my country.

If this book is handed over to you, what benefit will you bring to ? What good can you bring to the Holy City?"

Mr. Black and White's purpose for asking this question was obvious.

If Han Dong gives 'benefits' less than the above three points, Mr. Black and White will confiscate and hand over the book.

How to answer?

In fact, there was already an answer within Han Dong's heart.

"I can read through and learn everything in this book and fight for humanity."

Mr. Black and White was slightly stunned by Han Dong's answer.

It seed that this answer was even better than he had expected, and an extrely rare smile cracked on the white mask.

"Crow... you sure did read it right, okay! I'll leave you to it next, I'm going to rest."

Black and white alternated.

Han Dong couldn't see the mask's face at all as it alternated.

Breath change.

Returning to the Mr. Black and White that Han Dong was familiar with.

"Nicholas, to get [White]'s acknowledgent ans that I really wasn't wrong about you... okay! Take the book down and let Miss Pasha continue to teach you the basics of plague science.

I look forward to your performance in [Destiny Space] in a week's ti.

There's sothing about the book that I'll keep completely confidential here, so you should be careful yourself.

Once it's leaked to the higher-ups, I can't protect you either."

"Thank you, Mr. Black and White."
