Bringing the MC system to Middle-earth

For Sauron, the lethality of this sentence can be said to be quite great.

[Corruption degree: 0.002%]

As the progress of the corruption suddenly increased, there was also the anger and murderous intention of the deep black shadow in the center of the flame.

The scorching heat seeped into the room through the spar, illuminating the room brightly.

Rumblings kept coming from the shadows, trying to get into Levi's mind.

And Li Wei - he took the initiative to attach his ears, and finally understood the meaning of the babble:

"You will die."

[Corruption degree: 0.031%]

"Really, that's not bad. After all, in my opinion, living or dying is much better than half-dead."

Boom!

A heavy pressure suddenly rushed into the consciousness, and the shadow spread in the heart, coming like a violent wind, cracking the reason.

Levi's breathing suddenly became much harder, even a little difficult.

However, the fire in my heart was not extinguished by the harassment of darkness. Instead, it became stronger and more resilient, and could not be scratched off.

"I will find you and kill you."

The evil and filthy declaration echoed in his consciousness.

"You can't kill me."

Levi responded to it.

indistinct--

The black shadow in the crystal disappeared, and no picture appeared anymore.

Levi's eyes dazzled and he took a step back, feeling a little weightless.

[Corruption degree: 1%]

"Let me help you!"

Saruman raised his staff and was about to smash it down, causing wind to fly out of the stick.

clang!

I couldn't tell whether it was the sound of metal meeting each other or the sound of wood colliding with wood.

A simple wooden stick stopped in front of Levi, and the pipe hanging on it was still shaking due to the vibration.

"Gandalf."

Saruman gave a rather unhappy cry.

"No need, he was not bewitched."

Gandalf smiled, slowly moved Saruman's staff away, and gave Levi a hand.

"how?"

"Fortunately, thanks to your help, it's not a big problem."

"Isn't it a big problem? I think the problem is big. You have completely angered Sauron. He will definitely find a way to retaliate against you. You'd better be careful lately."

"After all, Sauron's black magic is always difficult to prevent, and it might sneak up on you at some point."

Gandalf has not forgotten that magic is Levi's weakness.

"If something goes wrong, remember to go to the Glen or the Golden Forest. There are people there who can help you."

"Or if it doesn't work, you might as well go to Radagast. He might also have some ideas."

"And me."

Saruman put away his cane and walked over naturally and said: "You can also come to me, I will be happy to help."

Gandalf nodded.

He still trusted Saruman.

Levi did not regard this as a priority option.

Ask Saruman, he may really help, but it's probably not free.

"Okay, got it."

With his mouth in agreement, Levi put the Zhenzhi Crystal back on and ended the topic.

It's too dangerous.

In other words, in the past two years, I have been traveling around Middle-earth and experienced enough things, and my will has been somewhat tempered.

It might have been even more dangerous when he first came to this world.

The purpose of using the True Knowledge Crystal has been achieved, and this matter has come to an end.

Amid Saruman's inexplicable regret, Levi went to the libraries on both sides of the tower and searched the titles on the shelves row by row, looking for something that might trigger something new.

"What do you want to read, Levi? I've been here for a while, and I still have some memories of the books here."

Gandalf volunteered to act as guide.

"About magic."

"magic?"

"That's quite a lot, let me think about it, over here." A moment later, in front of a bookshelf, several stacks of books were stacked on the table. Levi raised his head and read the titles of the books from top to bottom, and his scalp was numb.

The title of this book is enough to fill a booklet.

"Okay...I'll see."

From that day on, Levi lived directly in this huge library, flipping through books day and night, without necessarily ever having a rest.

As a guide, Gandalf also read books with Levi for a few days, but left after confirming that there were no new conflicts between Levi and Saruman.

"Time waits for no one, I have to continue my journey."

This gray-robed wizard never has time to spare.

Several days passed like this, and there was not much movement in the library.

During this period, Saruman came once, and he was a little puzzled by this guest who was restless when doing things.

"You really don't need to sleep?"

"I don't want one more person to die suddenly in my tower."

He issued a warning to Levi.

"Just mind yourself."

Levi didn't bother to explain to him.

Saruman tightened his grip on his staff and turned away, never to be seen again.

Just outside the library, he called another attendant:

"Go and keep an eye on him, don't let him die in there."

If such a man of the hour dies in his tower, it will cause a lot of trouble. Even if he didn't do it, he will be considered to have something to do with him.

It’s really impossible to wash away even if you jump into a running river.

He didn't pay attention to Saruman's little moves.

Levi was scratching his head when reading these days.

It was different from what he thought. Most of these so-called "magic-related" books were history books, or some rumors and stories, as well as poetry.

The contents were messy, with almost all ages.

One book even recorded a mysterious person living deep in the old forest of the Shire...

The types were very complete, but they were all useless.

None of them taught magic or recorded a certain craft. There were only a few related books, and there was a lot of popular science in the humanities. There was very little dry goods, or rather, these dry goods were just mentioned for the purpose of telling the humanities and history of a certain place.

Levi, who didn't believe in evil, just stayed in the room and continued to read.

But until he finished reading those thin or thick books, he still couldn't figure out what they were about.

But it wasn't a complete failure.

Among these books, there were two books with Saruman's annotations, where he wrote down some of his own inspirations, and many of these characters mentioned some research he was doing.

And these studies were related to the "elements" that made up the essence of the world.

Unfortunately, they were just some things written down casually, and there was no real focus. The essence of Saruman's research was probably in his private laboratory...

It seems that I still have to go find him.

"Ah--"

Sighing, Levi stood up, brushed off the dust on his body, pushed the door open and walked out.

This push also scared a servant who was dozing at the door.

He hurriedly greeted Levi and left in a hurry.

Not paying attention to the servant, Levi walked up the stairs step by step, observing the internal structure of the tower, just to relax.

It has been a long time since he stood up.

Looking up, even Levi had to sigh-there are really many books here.

The bookshelf is almost the main interior of this huge and mountain-like black tower. From the bottom to the top of the tower, most of the rooms are used to store books, and they are connected to each other in a certain pattern.

The remaining small part of the room is for living and research.

Thinking of this, Levi turned and broke into a room with a proper alchemy table and grinding tools.

There were some notes scattered on the desk by the window, and the ink on it didn't seem to have been dry for a long time, and it was still fresh.

"About the infusion of metal materials."

Levi picked up a page of notes and read it.

When he first arrived at this tower, he certainly wouldn't understand the jargon and terms mentioned above.

But after going through that pile of books, Levi is no longer a novice.

He could barely understand a few lines.
