Royal Library (Third Update)

The three placed their palms on the Teleportation Orb, and a familiar white light shone, engulfing their figures once again.

This spatial teleportation journey took longer than the previous teleportation from the Shadow Labyrinth.

The scene before my eyes is frozen in time.

It was a somewhat gloomy room. In the corner was a wooden shelf cluttered with miscellaneous items, and there was an empty experimental table. In the center of the room was a Teleportation Orb. Apart from that, there were no other items, making it seem rather shabby.

"I apologize, this is the basement of my mage tower, it's rather simple." Camelot Queen clapped her hands, a crisp sound rang out, and a white bead on the ceiling emitted a soft light, illuminating the steps in front.

"Come with me, I need to introduce you to my ministers, so that they may all know you, the prophet. This is very important."

Camelot Queen returned to her familiar territory, and her speech carried a hint of assertiveness that even she herself might not have noticed—the aura a queen should possess.

Bai Xiaowen naturally agreed. Such a good thing as World Fame for free is rare—and World Fame in the Spirit Realm Plane often means a powerful title bonus, which no awakened being would want to give up.

Soon, servants cleared the way, bells rang, and cheers of the Queen's return echoed throughout the Camelot Royal Court.

Thanks to Her Majesty the Queen's credibility, virtually no one doubted Bai Xiaowen's prophetic identity. However, whether any ministers harbored suspicions about this excessively handsome young man behind the scenes remains unknown.

Bai Xiaowen then announced a prophecy of the impending apocalypse, which left a group of ministers skeptical.

Camelot Queen later confirmed that she had also seen the same apocalyptic vision on the Prophecy Tablet.

Now, the ministers looked at Bai Xiaowen with much more caution.

However, upon hearing that it was necessary to find the Seven Creation Sacred Artifacts, people immediately began to whisper among themselves.

There are countless legends about the Seven Sacred Artifacts, many of which have been written into poems and novels, and their whereabouts are completely unknown.

"For many years, no one has seen the Seven Sacred Artifacts, and many people doubt their existence."

Finding the Seven Sacred Artifacts is extremely difficult.

Amidst the clamor of discussion, Bai Xiaowen maintained a calm expression, but her heart held a different sentiment.

If there were no difficulty, how could my value as a prophet be demonstrated? It is precisely because everyone thought it was impossible to find the Seven Sacred Artifacts that Bai Xiaowen made a successful prophecy, which earned him greater credibility and made everyone remember him as a prophet!

"Quiet down, everyone. Finding the Seven Sacred Artifacts is the Prophet's Mission. He will use the Prophecy Tablet to foretell the whereabouts of the Seven Creation Sacred Artifacts," Camelot Queen dropped this astonishing news. "Guards, escort the Prophet to the Royal Library. Before the Prophet consults the scriptures and makes his prophecy, no one unrelated to him is allowed to approach the Royal Library."

Bai Xiaowen nodded to Camelot Queen. Immediately, two servants bowed and guided Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi away.

As Bai Xiaowen left, she vaguely heard Camelot Queen's voice again. "We also have our mission. We must let the warring nations know that a powerful dark force is about to descend upon the Black Tide Continent. Everyone must unite to deal with this threat, or we will face annihilation..."

The Royal Library was smaller than Bai Xiaowen had imagined, and it had two floors.

This was also because Bai Xiaowen was used to seeing all kinds of library buildings on Earth, and the contrast created a feeling of dissonance. According to the waiter's slightly proud introduction, this library was the largest library on the Black Tide Continent, because Camelot Queen herself was a spellcaster, and her respect and emphasis on knowledge was unmatched by any other monarch.

The Kingdom of Camelot is also the country with the most relaxed and active academic atmosphere, and it is famous for producing magicians, earning it the reputation of being the land of magicians.

Bai Xiaowen stepped into the Royal Library.

As arranged by Camelot Queen beforehand, the Royal Library had already announced its closure. Inside the vast library, besides Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi, there were only ten apprentices dressed in plain robes, respectfully waiting.

According to one of the apprentices, they were here by order of the king to assist the prophet, and all tasks such as moving and organizing books were entrusted to these ten men.

Bai Xiaowen nodded. "Bring over all the books about the Seven Sacred Artifacts."

The ten apprentices exchanged surprised glances, but none of them questioned Bai Xiaowen's order. After bowing, they withdrew and moved among the rows of bookshelves, methodically carrying out stacks of books and piling them in front of Bai Xiaowen.

"Reverend Prophet, there are a total of 532 books related to the Seven Sacred Artifacts," an apprentice said.

More than 500 books were piled up into a small mountain.

Li Shuyi looked at Bai Xiaowen with some worry. Bai Xiaowen could not reveal the images seen on the Prophecy Tablet to anyone, otherwise the mission would fail directly. This meant that Bai Xiaowen could only verify them by consulting books himself, and Li Shuyi could not help him.

With so many books, I really don't know how long it will take to read them all.

Bai Xiaowen didn't even blink, calmly saying, "First, pick out the book ' Apollo’s Whisper ' and put it on my desk. Categorize the other books according to the holy artifacts they describe, putting books of the same type of holy artifact together."

The Apollo’s Whisper is the name of one of the Seven Sacred Artifacts, the magnificent great bow.

An apprentice said, "Revered Prophet, some books record legends that encompass more than one sacred artifact. For example, one book, ' The Biography of Emperor Helvin,' includes all seven sacred artifacts."

Bai Xiaowen thought for a moment and said, "Pick out the book that contains multiple sacred artifacts and put it away separately."

The ten apprentices began their work.

Finally, a total of thirty-seven books were piled on Bai Xiaowen's desk; these were books and documents that recorded "The Apollo’s Whisper".

Bai Xiaowen sat down and opened the first book: <The Sun God’s Scepter>.

This book tells the story of the son of the Sun God who transforms into a human and walks among mortals as the son of a god, triggering a series of love, hate, and grudges... many of the inherent plot elements of Qihuan legends.

Bai Xiaowen flipped through the pages extremely quickly, turning a page in almost one or two seconds.

This is normal. Bai Xiaowen doesn't need to care about how convoluted or moving the story is. He only focuses on the appearance and final burial location of the sacred bow in "Apollo’s Whisper" and compares it with the scene in the Prophecy Tablet to determine whether the legend is based on reality.

If the image on the Prophecy Tablet matches the description in the book, then the prophecy of "Apollo’s Whisper" can be made without violating the rules.
