The documents above were a series of unclear experimental records.
"Is this the synthesis experiment for Demonized Creature? Soul Devourer? Black Serpent Flower?"
Using the White Light Stone in her hand, Freya flipped through the pages slightly and immediately Understood that the experiments described in these records were unfamiliar to her. What puzzled her was that the species recorded in these documents were all unknown to her.
It should be noted that during her time at the academy, All Things Studies was one of her best subjects.
"Could it be some kind of alias for a creature?"
With doubts in her mind but unable to come up with an explanation, Freya returned the documents to their original place. After scanning the room again and finding nothing else of interest, she exited the room.
Ten minutes later.
Freya walked out of a room with a deep frown. During this time, she had opened about ten doors, but all these rooms were laboratories, differing only in size.
"Perhaps this is a biological Laboratory Area specifically set up by this Wizard Organization. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many laboratories," she thought, glancing up at the dark corridor where four more doors remained unopened.
If she found nothing behind these remaining doors, it likely meant that the other two corridors wouldn't differ much either.
It should be known that such specialized Laboratory Areas typically do not store anything particularly valuable aside from necessary experimental materials, and these experimental records were essentially useless to Freya.
Gently gripping the Cross Sword at her waist, Freya bypassed the nearest door and headed straight for the room at the end of the last corridor.
The door to this room was still black, slightly larger than the others but otherwise unremarkable.
However, when she reached out toward the doorknob...
"Hiss..."
A slight electric sensation quickly traveled up her arm from her fingertips, causing Freya to retract her fingers immediately.
"Eh? A theft prevention magic array?"
Shaking her slightly numb arms, Freya's eyes brightened. She suddenly became interested.
With the current level of weakened energy flow today, if it had been a hundred years ago, she would have likely been electrocuted the moment she touched the doorknob. However, this also indicated that there must be something valuable in this last room.
Bringing the White Light Stone closer to the Black Door, Freya scanned it from top to bottom and finally discovered a faint circular magic circle in a small area next to the door.
The magic circle was only the size of a fist. The runes inside were arranged and structured with great intricacy. Although it was already blurred, it still operated thanks to a Red Crystal at the center of the circle.
After observing the magic circle for a while, Freya withdrew her gaze with slight disappointment. She realized that with her current Enchantment Knowledge, it was impossible to decipher the magic circle intact. If she recklessly touched it, she would likely trigger the anti-theft electric current and might even cause an explosion.
After thinking for a moment, Freya took a few steps back and extended her hand. The lengthy incantation echoed in the corridor, and as the final words of the spell concluded, a large Purple Flame coalesced in her palm.
Freya calmly looked at the Black Door in front of her and pressed the flame against it.
With a 'bang,' it was as if something had shattered. The moment the Purple Flame made contact with the door, it triggered a strong electrical reaction.
Blue and purple light surged wildly. Unfazed, Freya grasped the doorknob with the Purple Flame and twisted it forcefully.
With a 'crack!', the previously closed door opened just a narrow gap, but due to the pull of the electric current, it only opened slightly.
Freya squinted her eyes. Through this gap, she vaguely saw the furnishings of the room: tables and chairs, bookshelves, and a massive bookshelf piled high with books.
"Indeed, there are good things here!"
Looking at that enormous bookshelf in the room, Freya suddenly broke into a smile and slammed her empty fist against the door.
"Bang!"
Combining the special technique of Stiletto, a series of fine cracks appeared on the door with the center of her fist.
As the door was destroyed, the electric current vanished without a trace, leaving only a faint burnt smell.
Without the pull of electricity, Freya easily opened the door this time.
Gently smoothing out the still flickering electric currents on her arm, Freya cast a regretful glance at the anti-theft magic array that had turned into countless cracks.
If it weren't for the fact that the array had already become incomplete due to the erosion of time, she wouldn't have used the original Ashfire to brute force her way through. However, even so, the intricate arrangement of runes and syntax on this array provided her with some new insights.
"Perhaps I can use this on the Promotion Array," Freya murmured as she withdrew her gaze.
Stepping lightly into the room, Freya noticed that it was exceptionally clean, as if no dust had accumulated over time.
On the floor, the red wooden floorboards reflected Freya's figure almost perfectly under the brightness of the White Light Stone.
The tables and chairs were also in very new condition.
Curiously scanning her surroundings, Freya slowly walked over to the bookshelf.
The books on the shelf were all wrapped in Black Cover, with no labels or markings on their surfaces.
Freya casually pulled one out from the middle and flipped through it.
"The Origin and Destiny of All Things," she read aloud softly, naming the book.
This was a theoretical book belonging to All Things Studies; however, most of its content was something Freya had never learned in school. She discovered that the creatures mentioned in this book were not limited to those of this world but extended to other worlds as well.
Some creatures recorded in Transcendence were described in detail within, including their living habits, growth cycles, and racial histories.
With her intelligence, she finished the thick book in just five minutes.
Feeling a bit amazed, Freya placed the book back and pulled out another one, which was also something she had never seen before.
"Even if I don't find any resources, the value of these books alone makes this trip worthwhile."
As she flipped through the pages, Freya marveled at the knowledge in her hands.
Half an hour later, just as Freya was returning the seventh book she had read to its place, a faint sound came from somewhere in the outer corridor.
'Crack!'
The sudden noise immediately alerted Freya. She turned around and looked toward the dark corridor through the open door.
'Crack!'
The faint sound came again. This time, Freya could clearly sense the direction of the sound; it was coming from one of the three rooms she had previously overlooked, specifically from the one on the right. (To be continued)
