The entire forbidden library is divided into three floors and five areas. The largest area is the bottom layer of the library, which mainly stores various books on taboo thoughts.

The Poseidon world has existed for such a long time, and has continuously expanded and annexed other worlds, absorbing a lot of knowledge and ideas from other worlds. Although Poseidon belief has always been the only belief in this world, there will always be some deviant ideas.

They will continue to grow like weeds. When these ideas first appear, they will be extinguished by the Poseidon Church, the Sea Tribe and the Spirit Tribe together. However, their works are not destroyed, but will be stored in the forbidden library.

As for why these books full of deviant and even blasphemous thoughts were not destroyed, but were instead collected and allowed to be consulted by senior clergy, even within the Poseidon Church did not know. They only knew that this was how the original rules were formulated.

This type of books has accumulated over time and has formed a huge number. According to the attendant assigned to Leo, there are as many as four million books on this floor. It is no exaggeration to say that this is the entire Poseidon World.

Heretic core.

Compared with the books containing taboo thoughts on the bottom floor, there are far fewer books on the upper two floors. The two floors are divided into four areas, corresponding to the four maelstroms.

The Poseidon World's conquest of other worlds is not like the protoss of Anor Londo, opening a temporary space channel to conquer other worlds, but there are four fixed whirlpools through which the Poseidon World's army can pass.

Enter other worlds and start conquests.

It's just that the worlds those maelstroms go to are not fixed, but the worlds they lead to are randomly selected. Therefore, unless there are existences like Poseidon and the first-generation Sea King Leviathan, most of the expeditionary forces will enter other worlds through the maelstrom.

All will end in failure.

However, there are also some expeditionary forces that can successfully conquer the world they are going to, and eventually all the civilized knowledge and resources in that world will be annexed by the Poseidon World.

The remaining civilized knowledge from these annexed worlds will be screened out, and some of the knowledge involving extraordinary powers will be stored in the corresponding areas of the forbidden library according to the world the maelstrom leads to.

Although these books are regarded as forbidden knowledge and involve a lot of extraordinary powers, people in the Poseidon World rarely read the books here, because for people in the Poseidon World, their core of power is completely different, making these extraordinary powers

Mysterious knowledge cannot be used at all. No matter how well you learn it, it is useless. The only function is to increase your experience and know what kind of strange powers other worlds have. You can be wary of them in advance. Therefore, only senior clerics who join the expeditionary force will choose to come.

Read it here.

However, compared to the heresies below, these mysterious knowledge from other worlds are more popular. The administrators are not even willing to sweep away the dust from the heresies, as if they only touch those

Heretical doctrines, they will seem to be contaminated by heretical doctrines.

The library attendant in charge of Leo thought that Leo, like the people who came here to browse books, would read the mysterious knowledge from different worlds, but Leo gave a completely different answer. What he wanted to read

The books turned out to be those heresies that were numerous but no one cared about.

"Did you make a mistake?" Although he knew something was inappropriate, the attendant couldn't help but confirm again.

"I know what I want to see." Leo answered affirmatively.

Seeing that Leo had expressed his attitude, the attendant didn't say anything more. He led Leo to a row of bookshelves full of heresies, put his hand on a stone platform under the bookshelf, and a burst of light came from the stone platform, followed by

The bookshelf fixed on the ground slowly moved out and was completely displayed in front of Leo.

After moving the bookshelf out, the attendant quickly removed his hand from the stone platform, and then quickly took two steps back, away from the bookshelf, as if the bookshelf was some kind of terrifying scourge.

The attendant quickly said: "You can look through the books here as you like. If you need to copy, there is paper and pen over there. If you have other instructions, you can call me in front."

After saying that, without waiting for Leo to answer, he quickly ran out of the forbidden book area and ran to the small reception room where he usually stayed before he breathed a sigh of relief. But then he seemed to think of something and hesitated a little.

, then turned and walked towards the office where the manager of the library was located. It seemed that he was planning to tell the manager about Leo's need to check out the heresies.

Leo ignored the attendant's thoughts. After the bookshelf was released, his attention fell on the bookshelf, and he pulled out the nearest book. He did not go to the reading area not far away, and just stood there.

Browsing through the bookshelf quickly.

The reason why Leo chose to read these heresies first instead of looking at the mysterious knowledge that contains extraordinary power does not mean that he will not be able to use those mysterious knowledge to obtain extraordinary power like the people in the Poseidon World, but because compared with

Instead of mastering some extraordinary powers, he is more willing to explore some mysteries about this Poseidon world and other worlds, which can help him understand more things.

In fact, Leo also read a lot of books about other worlds in the library of the God's Temple. However, due to religious reasons, most of the content about other worlds was only superficial and vague.

There isn't anything detailed, so Leo can't get anything really useful from it, and most things about other worlds are speculation.

But now these deviant banned books are different. Although these banned books are written around religious ideas, most of them are related to the Poseidon Church, but in addition, these books will also record some mysteries of other worlds.

As well as the secrets of Poseidon's world that cannot be known to others, there must be something hidden in these secrets that Leo wants to know.

Although these books are all large, they actually don’t contain much useful content. Most of the contents are some religious thoughts, philosophical thoughts and opinions on the Poseidon Church. Leo only needs to scan the pages of the books.

He could clearly understand the general content of the pages, so he flipped through the pages very quickly, finishing the entire book in just a few minutes.

While Leo was looking through the books, the manager of the library led his attendants to the library hall, where he could see Leo, looking at Leo seriously.

When the attendant came to him just now and told him that the books Leo planned to copy were actually heresies, he was really shocked, because he had heard about some things before and knew that some curious senior clergy had consulted them.

He has read these books, but the final situation of those clergy was very bad, either their divine status fell, or they simply became heretics. Therefore, since he became the manager, no senior clergy of the church has come forward.

Go through these books.

Now Leo actually wanted to look up these heresies, which made him think of the senior clergy who had become heretics, so he came to see if the situation was true. If it was true, he must report the matter to the main church.

He knew very well that the power struggle between the Divine Faction and the Divine Descendants within the church was already undercurrent and could turn into a tsunami sweeping across the entire church at any time. He was unwilling to be involved in this tsunami. Once he reported this to his superiors,

In the eyes of others, this matter must be on the sidelines. It will be difficult for him to remain neutral at that time, but he has to do so, because if the heretical doctrine here spreads in the Holy Temple of God, it will have a negative impact on the Poseidon Church.

That is the most serious damage.

However, when he stood there and watched Leo flipping through the banned books for a while, his previous decision to report the matter was abandoned, and at the same time he became curious.

The reason why he changed his mind was mainly because Leo flipped through the banned books so fast that he could barely read a whole page of books at a glance. No matter how good a person he was, he could read at such a fast speed.

It's impossible to remember any of the above.

In his opinion, Leo was looking for something in those forbidden books, which was why he was curious.

As for why there are things hidden in forbidden books, there is nothing suspicious in his opinion, because he often has the idea of ​​hiding some of his secret items in forbidden books. After all, these forbidden books that record heresies, even if they are high-level

The clergy may not look at it even once for hundreds or thousands of years, so it is absolutely safe to hide things inside.

It was this thought that led him to guess that Leo might have seen something valuable hidden in a forbidden book in the private collection of an ancestor of the church, and he hoped to get that thing.

, that’s why I came here to read these banned books that normal clergy would not take a second look at.

After watching Leo quickly flip through all the books on the bookshelf, the library manager felt that there was no need to continue to monitor here. He turned around and ordered the attendant who was waiting aside to serve Leo carefully, and then

He turned around and went back to his office, putting the matter behind him.

At Leo's call, the attendant ran over and opened a new bookshelf for Leo. This time he did not go back to his reception room, but waited quietly not far away, looking at Leo as if

He flipped through the banned books as fast as he was playing.

Although Leo flipped through books very quickly, it was difficult for him to read all the banned books in the library in a short time.

However, he does not need to read all the books on this. He only needs to read the books that are useful to him. When reading these books, he also discovered some rules for the storage of these books, most of which

Some books that deal with religious philosophy, thought, and the worship of new gods are grouped together, while those that deal with other world cultures are placed in another area.

Compared with the large number of heresies, the number of books involving other world cultures is obviously much smaller, so in less than half a day, this part of the books has been read by Leo, and Leo came here

The main purpose was also achieved.

After reading this part of the forbidden books, Leo did not continue to read the mysterious knowledge from different worlds stored on the two floors above. He found a place to sit down in the reading area and quietly sorted out the forbidden books he had written down.

.

The attendant could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Leo did not continue to read those heresies. Although he also analyzed from Leo's reading movements, Leo was not reading those books, but looking for something, but he was not interested in those heresies.

He was so nervous that he was nervous from the moment Leo picked up the first forbidden book of heresy.

Although the small movements of the attendant were hidden, they could not escape Leo's perception. He didn't have too many thoughts, and he didn't think there would be any problems even if he read these forbidden books and others knew about it. He was more concerned about how he could learn from these books.

What to gain from it.

It has to be said that although Leo knew from other books that Poseidon World conquered many worlds, he never thought that there were so many conquered worlds. There were more than 300 heretical ideas involving the gods of different worlds. In addition,

There are even more worlds without gods, and the total number adds up to thousands.

Many of these worlds were not really completely conquered by the Poseidon World, but only established a church, such as the Velen World.

Among those books are the church classics of several major gods in the world of Velen. It can be seen that the expeditionary force from the world of Poseidon once went to the world of Velen, but it ended in failure.

But why the gods in the Velen world did not completely eliminate the outsiders in the Poseidon world, and even included the Poseidon Church into the True God Church, I am afraid it has something to do with the fact that the gods in the Velen world are all foreign gods or the foreign gods were transformed into local ancient gods.

In one aspect, it should be similar to the Lord of the Sky, except that it did not abandon everything else like the Lord of the Sky and transformed into the Lord of the Sky, the local ancient god of Velen's world.

This also made Leo couldn't help but think about whether the true gods in the Velen world are all the refugees whose own worlds were conquered by other worlds. If that is true, then the water in the Velen world is deeper than Leo had previously guessed.

It is even deeper. After all, it can accommodate so many true gods with different beliefs to exist at the same time. Such a world is not comparable to ordinary small worlds.

At least Leo has not discovered from the forbidden books he has read that there are two true gods in the small world conquered by the Poseidon World. All worlds with gods are without exception one god, and that god has its missionary scriptures from

From a mental point of view, it has definitely not reached the level of an Omega-level advanced life form, so it should be considered a false god.
