Chapter 438
"Blood Sacrifice?"
Just seeing the title of the book, an evil spirit emerged.
Dake couldn't help but frowned.
The word "blood sacrifice" is really not a good word.
"If it's not a fake..."
Thinking like this, Dak inserted two fingers into the gap between the books and pulled it out with force.
The dust that fell off showed that the book should have been here for a long time.
"The author is... there is no author?"
Dake couldn't help but hesitate.
This book not only has no author, but also no editor.
But he still opened it carefully.
The cover of the book is made of hard shell material, and the pages inside feel like a texture between cloth and leather, but it is very thin and looks like it has strong water absorption.
He turned to the title page, and the first line of words he saw was:
[Blood and corpses, who is at the end? ]
"The meaning is unclear."
Dake whispered, and then continued to turn to the next page.
But the next page is blank.
Further down, it is still blank.
"Huahuahua——"
He quickly flipped through the book and finally understood why it was placed in the corner of the bookshelf and no one cared about it.
Of course, if we follow the logic of the novel story, this "wordless book" might still be a treasure.
Dak stroked the pages of the book and looked at the title. Suddenly, he thought: "Could it be that the blood sacrifice means soaking this book in blood?"
"This is absorbent paper made from the skin of the Lolo tree frog. It doesn't need to be soaked in blood, just water."
The sudden voice behind him made Dak turn around suddenly.
A smiling lady appeared in his eyes.
She has bright orange-red long hair, and the ends of her hair tied with a hairband are wrapped around her neck and hung in front of her chest, with obvious ups and downs.
Her face is not delicate, but her facial features are soft, very kind, and she looks good when she smiles.
"Who are you?"
Dak tried hard to think, but still couldn't remember where he had seen her.
"Liya, Liya Goethe."
Liya Goethe nodded to Dak, then pointed to the book in his hand: "You are a freshman, right? This book may not be suitable for you."
Dak smiled and said: "Hello, Miss Goethe. I think grade and age are not good choices to describe a person."
Liya also smiled slightly: "Then let me put it another way. This book is not suitable for you."

Faced with Liya's decisive statement, Dak just asked casually: "Why is that?"
Liya shook her head: "The Lolo tree frog is a specialty of the demon vampire territory. Vampires often use its skin to make blood magic magic books. Blood magic is very dangerous. People who don't have blood magic talent should not touch it."
"Blood magic?"
Dak's mind moved slightly, and there was a hint of something else in his eyes when he looked at Liya.
Of course he knew blood magic.
Blood magic belongs to the category of high-level talent magic, and like astrology, it requires talent as a foundation.
Basically, vampires, and their inferior creatures, are born with the ability to master blood magic.
In addition to vampires, there are also some rare races that have the talent for blood magic.
Among humans, only the "blood race" masters blood magic.
They are called the nemesis of vampires.
But now, the only blood race that still exists on the surface is probably the "blood princess" whose life or death is unknown-Ophelia Blood!
Dak and the professors inferred the possibility of the "blood princess"'s survival through some information, and "overlapped" her with the escaped prisoner of Bastia Prison-Olivia Copernicus.
Therefore, when blood magic is mentioned, Dak naturally thinks of the "blood princess" Ophelia Blood.
"Lia... Ophelia?"
Dak murmured in a fake voice.
But Lea Goethe's expression did not change at all, still kind and gentle, like... a fake face!
This thought is together.
Dak couldn't control his eyes when he looked at Leah's face.
Leah Goethe seemed to notice his eyes, and said softly: "Knowing danger and retreating, thinking more, is indeed prudent. Of course, this is also my personal opinion. If you insist on contacting, you must be more cautious."
After that, she blinked at Dak, and her orange pupils, like her hair color, showed a hint of mischief.
Then she walked away and looked through other books.
Dak slightly loosened his fingers holding "Blood Sacrifice" and took a deep breath.
Although he intuitively felt that this Leah Goethe was related to Ophelia Brad, in fact, the other party did not show any signs of being related to the Blood Princess.
Moreover, the reason why the Blood Princess might be in the academy was because of Robert's divination.
Now it has been confirmed that Robert's divination was due to the existence of Vlad, which overturned the previous hypothesis.
There is no evidence to support the inference that the Blood Princess is in the academy.
Furthermore, whether the intuition was accurate or not, it was not appropriate to pursue it too directly.
Dak was not arrogant enough to think that he could compete with the heroes of the war.
He lowered his head to take a look at Blood Sacrifice, pursed his lips, and looked in the direction of Leah Goethe, wondering whether to continue observing or following.
But in the interval between lowering his head and raising his head, the gentle lady who was standing in front of the bookshelf flipping through the books disappeared without any warning!
Dak's eyes flashed, and he immediately took a few steps forward, then rushed out quickly. He looked around and found that Ms. Leah Goethe had really disappeared.
"Who is she?"
Dak couldn't help but stop.
His expression changed slightly.
...
Dak finally bought the book "Blood Sacrifice".
On the way back to the castle, he recalled the appearance of Leah Goethe.
The long orange-red hair was different from the hair color in the past photos of the Blood Princess and the photos of Olivia when she surrendered.
The facial contours were somewhat similar.
But there are countless people with similar faces in this world.
The facial features are obviously different.
"Is it a disguise effect caused by magic?"
Dak stretched out his hand and touched the top of his temple, and the blessing of the wind elf rolled around his fingers, bringing a hint of coolness.
It's a pity that he didn't have the corresponding talent, otherwise he could use this breeze to send a message to Professor Sylph.
"Go and tell her."
Dark put "Blood Sacrifice" into his schoolbag and walked quickly to Professor Sylph's classroom.
Although it was Saturday, the Easter Duel Festival was tomorrow, and he guessed that Professor Sylph must be busy in the office.
The result was as expected.
After knocking on the door and entering the office, Dark immediately told Professor Sylph about his encounter with Leah Goethe, and also told Professor Mitia's "reminder", hoping that Professor Sylph would be alert.
"Don't worry about safety."
Professor Sylph nodded cautiously and said, "The professors will patrol everywhere at that time."
The professors of St. Marianne are undoubtedly the guarantee of safety.
Dak felt relieved, and then said: "Although it's just a guess, I feel that the person is the Blood Princess. Although she may be disguised, the gentle temperament she shows is very consistent with your previous description.
Assuming that she has some reason to disguise herself, if I stand in her position, I will definitely not risk exposing myself to remind a student who is not actually familiar with me."
Professor Sylph's serious face also softened slightly. She looked up as if she was reminiscing and said: "Brad is such a person. She is gentle and kind. It is completely unimaginable that she is a member of the Blood Clan. If it is really her, there is no need to worry. She will not do anything to harm students."
"I hope so." Dak crossed his fingers and said carefully, "But everyone has two sides, and she is a person who escaped from prison after more than ten years of imprisonment."
When mentioning this, Professor Sylph seemed a little impatient.
She knocked on the table and said, "I always believe in her. She must have her reasons."
Dake raised his eyebrows and said, "Professor, I have something to do, so I'll leave first."
Professor Sylph nodded: "See you tomorrow, I wish you a good performance."
Dake smiled: "The goal is to qualify for the audition."
...
Not to mention, with the audition melee mode, the possibility of capsizing in the gutter is really not small.
Thanks to the separate auditions for the low and high groups, otherwise there would be no chance at all.
After returning to the dormitory, Dak quickly put the matter of the Blood Princess aside for the time being and turned to study the book "Blood Sacrifice".
It's not that he didn't believe what Leah Goethe said, but although he didn't have the talent for blood magic, there was an expert at home.
Besides...
I've already bought it, how can I be content if I don't see what it is?
"According to Miss Goethe, just soak it in clean water."
After greeting the magic elves, Dak picked a basin of the right size and put it under the faucet to collect water.
While waiting for the water to accumulate, he picked up the book again, shook it vigorously, and after confirming that there was nothing stuck inside, he turned off the faucet and slowly put the book into the basin.
As soon as it entered the water, the pages began to absorb water with obvious signs.
The originally thin paper gradually gained texture.
And on the surface of the paper, small words gradually appeared.
This hiding measure is actually quite elementary, far less advanced than the secret ancient text in "Into the Abyss".
After the paper absorbs water to a certain extent, it will not continue.
Dak directly opened the book in the water and read from the first page to the back.
The book looks quite thick, but the text part is surprisingly small.
It didn't take long for Dak to understand the general idea.
Then he sighed, picked up the whole book from the basin, and hung it on the shelf beside it.
It's not that this book is not good.
It's just that it's simply useless to him.
...
"Blood Sacrifice" is just as its name suggests, it talks about a method of "blood sacrifice".
