"Mr. Hughes, does this library have a name?" Leyton asked with some curiosity.

So many days had passed, and Leyton only now remembered that he didn't know the library's name, and Mr. Hughes had never mentioned it.

"It doesn't have a name. Just call it the library. The spirit world only has this one library, so the reference is very clear. Even if the spirit world has other libraries in the future, this one will have the highest priority." Mr. Hughes's answer was somewhat unexpected to Leyton.

"Ah? Reference? Can this also be part of a ritual? And, don't you have a library?" Leyton asked very curiously.

"Yes, I am already the administrator of this library. The library I built before was naturally disbanded by me." Mr. Hughes explained gently.

After learning more specific details about the library from Mr. Hughes, Leyton realized that as a product of the projection of the God of Knowledge's kingdom, this library already had symbolism in terms of mysticism, representing the inheritance and protection of knowledge.

This library could even be used as a subject of prayer when making certain charms. As the knowledge collected in the library increased, the mystical effects it possessed would also be strengthened.

"You came here today, it shouldn't be just for these things, right?" Mr. Hughes seemed to see Leyton's hesitation and reminded him.

"Yes." Leyton hesitated and nodded.

Mr. Hughes didn't urge him, quietly watching Leyton, waiting for the words that would follow.

"I would like to ask if the church can arrange an identity and mission for me to go to sea? With the library, I should be able to digest the Mystery Pryer potion quickly. I want to go to the sea to learn more about Beyonders and prepare for the Scholar's acting in advance." After thinking for a while, Leyton chose to state part of his reason for wanting to go to sea.

"Go to sea? The chaos on the sea will exceed your imagination. If you insist, I can assign you a mission in my personal capacity." Mr. Hughes pondered for a moment, then gave his answer.

Leyton was stunned for a moment, not expecting Mr. Hughes to propose assigning him a mission in his personal capacity. He remembered that Mr. Hughes had said before that he was an external member of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, but now it seemed that this external member had quite a lot of power.

"What is the mission?" Leyton suppressed the thoughts in his mind and asked curiously.

"Admiral of Blood Senor, he is a member of the Indulgence Faction of the Rose School of Thought, a hidden organization." Mr. Hughes stated the information of a pirate admiral.

"The target is the Rose School of Thought?" Leyton asked curiously.

"No, it's the Primordial Moon." Mr. Hughes shook his head and said.

"Uh, I probably can't handle this mission. I'm just a small Sequence 7." Leyton's mouth twitched, and he said very helplessly.

Regarding the Primordial Moon, Leyton couldn't figure out whether He was the Mother Goddess of Depravity's vest or the Mother Tree of Desire's vest. After all, the Mother Tree of Desire did control a Sequence 1 characteristic of the Moon pathway, but one thing was clear: both of these Outer Deities had a certain control over the identity of the Primordial Moon.

"Maybe the sense of division of the Primordial Moon is due to the influence of the Mother Tree of Desire and the Mother Goddess of Depravity mutually topping each other's accounts!" Leyton muttered to himself.

Regardless of whose vest the Primordial Moon was, it was not something that Leyton, a small Sequence 7, could touch, not even a Sequence 2 Sage.

"You don't really need to do anything, just investigate the state and information of the Primordial Moon. Of course, it would be better if you could get that characteristic of the Beauty Goddess." Mr. Hughes explained.

Leyton looked at Mr. Hughes with a helpless expression, waiting for the words that would follow. If it was just contacting some people who believed in the Primordial Moon, Leyton could still accept it, but once it involved the Primordial Moon itself, it was not something Leyton could participate in.

"This is a long-term mission. You can wait until you become a Saint before starting the investigation, but you can accept this mission now, then change your identity and venture out to sea." Mr. Hughes gave a statement that was difficult for Leyton to refuse.

"Can I know why we need to investigate the Primordial Moon?" Leyton was really curious about this question.

The affairs of the Primordial Moon should be of greater concern to the Sanguine and the Church of the Earth Mother, why would the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom also pay attention to this issue?

"Bargaining chips and allies, and some preparations." Mr. Hughes's answer was somewhat vague.

Leyton didn't continue to ask. Although Mr. Hughes didn't say much, Leyton could also deduce some things based on the information he knew.

"I accept this mission." Leyton gave his answer after thinking for a moment.

"Okay, what do you need? I will advance part of the reward to you, including the Scholar potion you will need later. If you don't collect it yourself, it can also be included." Mr. Hughes was not surprised by Leyton's choice, and instead began to inquire about the reward Leyton needed to advance.

"A new identity, and I also need a sealed artifact suitable for me to use in direct combat." Leyton didn't hesitate and stated his long-thought-out request.

"Okay, someone will deliver it to you in the next two days." Mr. Hughes nodded and said in a gentle voice.

After communicating with Mr. Hughes about going to sea, Leyton left the library.

Consciousness returned to his body, and Leyton saw that the spells he had transcribed and the book of poetry were still on his desk.

"Hmm? The original manuscript is still here, so the library directly materialized them through my memory? How does it feel a bit like the operation of historical projection?" Leyton muttered to himself.

"How should I explain it to my father and mother! A child who has never been far from home suddenly wants to leave his hometown and venture out to sea, they definitely won't agree to this!" Thinking that he still needed to convince his parents, Leyton's face fell.

No matter how he communicated with his parents, going to sea was a must. Leyton was more worried that if his parents didn't agree, his source of funding might be cut off. Being away from home, not having money was the biggest problem.

In addition to his parents, he also needed to say hello to the Church of the Earth Mother. Fortunately, the grafting experiment had recently entered the right track. Leyton felt that even if he took Rabbit Eight with him, it wouldn't have too much impact.

"Perhaps I also need a messenger, otherwise it will be difficult to communicate after leaving here." Leyton murmured.

Recalling the incantations for summoning information that he knew, Leyton felt that he could also try it, just like Klein, perhaps there would be spirit world creatures willing to apply to be his messenger.

Leyton already knew the ritual for summoning a messenger. For a ritual magic master, this was not difficult.

Searching for the necessary materials in the room, and then arranging them according to the layout in his memory, he prepared the ritual for summoning a messenger.

Leyton took a step back and began to chant the incantation for summoning a messenger: "In my name, I summon: a spirit wandering in the void, a friendly creature that can be driven, a unique existence willing to be my messenger."

As the incantation was chanted, the light in the room began to dim slightly, the flame of the candle instantly turned a ghostly green, and the candlelight also began to flicker, as if a cold wind was blowing indoors.

Leyton actively activated his Eyes of Mystery Prying, nervously looking at the overlapping space in the room and the spirit world, guarding against unknown changes.

According to Mr. Azik's explanation in the original book, this method of summoning a messenger had a certain degree of danger, because it was impossible to guarantee whether the spirit world creature attracted by this incantation was hostile to him.

Leyton, like Klein, was betting that his luck was better, and a messenger would come to his door on his own.

A huge shadow suddenly appeared in the surrounding spirit world space, and a damp, fishy smell of the sea rushed towards him, and Leyton subconsciously covered his nose.

Although he hadn't seen clearly what kind of spirit world creature was attracted by his incantation, Leyton had already eliminated it in his mind.

Leyton only saw a slippery tentacle trying to pass through the passage created by the incantation. Before the huge figure could emerge, it was smashed down by a beam of brass-colored light that fell from the sky.

A brass-colored book with intricate patterns on the surface fell in front of Leyton through the passage created by the incantation.
