I'm Really Not The Demon God's Lackey Chapter 5

Yes, Lin Jie is a time traveler.

From the earth, travel to this vast country named Azir.

In horizontal comparison, he is just an insignificant one among thousands of crossing tides.

But in a sense, he is different.

Because his time travel was active to a certain extent.

It all starts with Mr. Lin’s hobbies.

As we all know, modern young people always have some strange problems.

Such as obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Such as intensive phobia.

Another example is the reading addiction that even has to read the ingredient list of shower gel.

And Lin Jie is a fanatical book collector.

His greatest wish in this life is to own all the published books in the world. Regardless of whether he can read them all, just imagining the feeling of opening his arms and looking at the vast sea of ​​books neatly arranged makes him wet…

orbital.

Of course, such a great cause cannot be achieved by individual efforts alone.

In the first half of a certain year in Huaxia alone, there were 90,000 new titles, and the median price was 45 yuan. It would cost 4 million yuan to buy all of them.

It is unimaginable how much money it takes to buy all the books in the world.

The value of books is far higher than people imagine.

This is only a financial obstacle. Others, such as some out-of-print books or books that are banned from sale, require a lot of time to find and collect.

For Lin Jie, this is just a dream that he can’t fulfill in his whole life but is yearning for.

until one day.

He inadvertently found a shortcut – a ritual that can fulfill all wishes with only a price.

Feeling that it couldn’t be true anyway, he held the mentality of giving it a try, completed the ceremony meticulously, and made a wish to own books all over the world.

At that time, he vaguely heard a soft whisper in his ear.

But when he tried to communicate, he felt like he was talking to a duck, and he didn’t know what happened. He came to a different world in the blink of an eye, and this abandoned bookstore was in front of him.

Following his intuition, he knows that as long as he thinks now, the huge library he has dreamed of will come to this bookstore.

But at the same time, he will never have the chance to return to Earth.

There is no other choice, Lin Jie, who was originally alone, pushed open the door of the bookstore without hesitation.

It has been three years since then.

And Lin Jie has already gotten used to life in NUO.

——Actually, it’s not really a habit, because the level of technology in this world is roughly similar to that of the earth in the 1980s and 1990s, and even the characters are similar. Due to historical reasons, square characters and English are common, and there is no big obstacle for Lin Jie .

However, there are still those weird names and hair colors that dominate here, and there are rumors that there are “underworlds” and “superpowers” and the like.

However, Lin Jie has not seen it yet.

He hasn’t figured it out until now, what is the price for this?

But it doesn’t matter, he is very satisfied with his current life. The bookshelf will be randomly refreshed every day, and it can also be manually refreshed or retrieved. There are endless books, and guests can adjust… No, chicken soup.

“I recently encountered some research bottlenecks.”

A hoarse voice with a somewhat troubled tone came from behind Wilde’s mask: “Thanks to the “Devil’s Words” you lent me two years ago, I got a new direction, but I need more clues about similar language literature .”

Lin Jie’s momentary thoughts of letting go were interrupted, and he went to the counter, opened the registration book and wrote “returned”.

I thought to myself, this old Wang actually called this book the language of the devil in a serious way, which really has a kind of scholarly cold humor.

“So you want to borrow the same type of book this time?”

Lin Jie raised his head and tapped on the table with a pen.

Wilde mused: “The last book was too difficult, and it seemed to belong to a small part of a larger whole. Is there any more simple… preferably related to a pan-cultural background, and many of the languages ​​​​in it seem to be related to cultural customs. The connection is deep, and I need to better understand the implications.”

After two years, he finally found the research clue of the forbidden spell from the knowledge left in that book.

This means that his chance to get one step closer to the god level is right in front of him!

Wizards make good use of the power of language and words, black wizards use words, and white wizards use words.

The former recite incantations, while the latter write runes.

As a top dark wizard, Wilde has mastered almost all the basic spells that can be learned. What he needs now is the self-discovery and self-breakthrough of the introverted soul.

Namely, find the voice of your own soul.

The great cause of the black wizard is to create his own language!

This is the path to god level.

“Is that so… let me see, please wait a moment.”

Lin Jie nodded, thought for a while, then turned around and rummaged through the bookshelf.

Lao Wang’s request is also easy to understand.

Although the language is roughly the same, there are still two worlds after all, and the difference in cultural customs will lead to a big gap in understanding.

And if you want to thoroughly understand Chinese culture, it’s too difficult, so you can only find some books with a wider range of research for him.

Lin Jie ran his fingers along the spine of the books on the shelf, and suddenly stopped.

While Lin Jie was looking for a book, Wilde looked at the dark heavy rain outside, and fell into memories while waiting.

Two years ago, after losing the battle with Joseph, he fled in embarrassment. It was when he was most confused about the road, but he got guidance from Lin Jie in this bookstore.

Until now, when he thinks of the language of the devil contained in that book, the astonishing mystery and power, he still feels his heart beat faster and his whole body tremble.

It was like first love!

It reminded him of when he was an apprentice and first came into contact with the power of wizards.

The old teacher said to the beautiful bird in a flat tone – “die”.

And the creature died.

How great! What a shock!

Let him re-establish his goals and beliefs, and recall his original intention.

The current him is completely different from the arrogant self he was a few years ago.

And all this is due to the selfless, generous, all-knowing and knowledgeable bookstore owner in front of him.

Although Wilde did not inquire about Lin Jie’s past and identity, he already had the answer in his heart.

He must be a hermit scholar of the Truth Society!

He even suspected that this was the legendary god-level great sage who held the key to the Temple of Truth… But because he couldn’t feel the fluctuation of ether from the other party, it was just a guess.

Looking at the young man who took down a book in front of the bookshelf, Wilde temporarily concealed the ups and downs in his heart: “Did you find it?”

Lin Jie looked at the book in his hand, then cleared his throat, and handed the book out with a solemn smile.

“Although it feels a bit presumptuous, I unexpectedly found this book to be appropriate. To be honest, I am quite confident in research in this area…”

“?”

Wilde felt a little puzzled by the subtle self-effacing tone, took the book and looked down.

Lin Jie followed his gaze, and the title and author of the book were printed on the cover.

“Ritual and Folklore”.

Lin Jie.
