In Sumeru, pretend to be a scholar!

Chapter 93 Nasita's Attention (16/20, Requesting First Subscription)

Office of the Registrar of the Order.

"Recorder Elhesen, there is a letter for you. It was sent from the desert and was delivered by express courier."

The young scholar, dressed in beginner's attire, looked at the clerk with a hint of awe and respectfully handed over a letter.

Although Elhesen is a low-key person, as the hero who saved the Grass God and the wise man who once acted as the Great Sage, he still enjoys a high reputation among the younger generation of the Faith Academy.

If Al-Hysen hadn't been unwilling, perhaps most of the Epistemologists would still have been willing to let him serve as an Epistemologist.

"Okay, please put it on the table. I'll look at it after I finish processing the documents."

Al-Hysen glanced at it and said calmly.

"Oh, okay." The young scholar hurriedly placed the letter on the desk. He wanted to talk to the legendary scholar of the Order of the Church, but he didn't know how to start. In the end, he turned and left with some reluctance.

Elhesen didn't mind; he often encountered this situation and was already used to it.

After finishing processing the documents in his hand, he reached for the letter. The mark on it made him raise an eyebrow, and a slight change finally appeared in his calm expression.

The sealing wax on the envelope was a cube, which was Faroshan's logo.

Open the letter.

To the younger generation, Elhesen:

A well-preserved temple of the goddess of flowers was recently discovered in the southwestern desert. Its relief carvings are exquisite, and its rune system is unique, which is very different from the style of common Red King relics.

These remains are rare and of great research value.

My apprentice Wang Yan and I have completed the initial clearing of the demons inside the hall and recorded the architectural structure and basic runes.

However, apart from the floral reliefs, no written records were found inside the temple, suggesting that there may be hidden meanings.

There are two things I need the help of my juniors for:

1. Please search the collection of the Instruction Council for all documents related to the civilization of the Flower Goddess, with particular emphasis on cryptic texts, symbolic systems, and ritual records. If you find any, please send a copy.

2. If you are not busy, you may visit the site in person to conduct an investigation.

There is a water source here, and an outpost camp has been built in Aru Village; the conditions are acceptable.

Note: The relics of the goddess of flowers are rare; you should be interested.

Waiting for a reply.

A separate section by Falushan includes: [Coordinate Map]

"The ruins of the goddess of flowers?"

It must be said that Farusan's judgment was correct.

Al-Hysen was indeed intrigued. He folded up Farusan's letter, but instead of putting it back on the table, he put it directly into the inner compartment of his notebook.

While the information about the Flower Goddess's remains may not be considered particularly valuable, firsthand data is certainly worthwhile.

He couldn't afford to let the news leak out due to carelessness, since Fiona and Wang Yan had invited him.

As a clerk, his office was cleaned daily, so leaving letters there wasn't exactly safe.

He got up, without tidying up the remaining documents on his desk, but simply flipped the wooden sign in the center of the desk that read "Clerk in Charge" to the "Temporarily Away" side, and walked straight to the door.

Scholars occasionally bowed to him or cast glances at him in the corridor, but he walked steadily and quickly without stopping.

Destination: Wisdom Palace Library of the Order of the Nation.

Al-Hysen has always had a good memory.

He did recall glimpsing several documents related to the "Goddess of Flowers" and the "belief in the Lady of Flowers" in a relatively obscure area during a routine inspection of the collection.

That was a long time ago, back when Hazard was the Great Sage.

At that time, the faith in the Red King and the Flower Goddess was rejected by the Order of the Church.

Therefore, those documents were not the focus of mainstream research and were not included in the "Void," but were still stored as physical files deep inside the oak bookshelf against the wall.

He didn't stop to read it carefully at the time because he had higher priorities, but he had already subconsciously categorized the books by their arrangement, the general color of the covers, and the keywords in the titles.

Upon entering the Wisdom Palace, he did not head towards the central public reading area, but instead turned to the "Ancient Beliefs and Local Culture" section on the side.

Visitors are few here, and the light is dim due to the towering bookshelves.

With a clear goal in mind, Elhesen walked past several rows of bookshelves and finally stopped in front of a bookshelf labeled "Sumeru Desert Faith - Non-Red King System".

However, he discovered that there were already people there.

A small figure, holding a document in his hand, is quietly reading it.

Seemingly sensing someone's arrival, she slowly raised her head and looked at the newcomer.

"Oh, it's Secretary Elhesen. I don't recall you having any recent projects on the desert."

The clear voice carried a hint of majesty; it was none other than the Grass Goddess Naxida.

Elhesen nodded slightly, his gaze falling on the books in her arms: "Senior Farusan made some discoveries in the desert and asked me to help look up some information."

After saying that, Elhesen walked up to Nasita and asked, "What are you doing here?"

In the entire Order of the Church, probably only Elhesen dared to speak to Narcida like that.

"Even the god of wisdom needs to read," Nasita smiled gently, then put down the book in her hand. "So, their discovery is related to Marikata?"

Nabu Marikata, the name of the goddess of flowers.

El-Hysen nodded: "It's an empty temple of the goddess of flowers, with only carvings of various flowers inside."

He roughly recounted the situation that Falusan had mentioned in the letter.

Nasita nodded slightly, not speaking immediately, as if she was thinking about something.

Elhesen didn't interrupt. Although he didn't care about the other party's status as a god, the other party was still the ruler of Sumeru, and he still had to show due respect.

After a moment, Nasita seemed to come to her senses and said apologetically, "Sorry, I remembered something—"

"The belief in the goddess of flowers was once deliberately downplayed or even obscured in the history of Sumeru, which is my fault—it is fortunate that these books have survived."

"I hope this book can help you." With that, Nasita handed the book in her hand to Elhesen.

Al-Hysen looked at the book title, "Albiruuni: A Preliminary Exploration of the Symbolic System of Flora".

This is the book he's looking for.

Albiruuni, a sage from the Church of England five hundred years ago, left behind the famous saying, "Be close to wisdom, not knowledge," which still remains on the Church of England's Wall of Fame.

It's no wonder that this book, which had "heretical" tendencies, was not destroyed during Hazard's time.

Because the Albiruni family still exists in Sumeru and wields considerable influence.

Hab Purbiluni, a modern historian from Sumeru and author of "A Preliminary Study of the Folk Beliefs of Coral Palace," was one of the descendants of this family.

The Albiruni family seems to have a particular interest in studying the beliefs of other gods, rather than specializing in the study of the god of wisdom like most scholars.

(Pulbirouni is Albirouni)

El-Hysen quickly flipped through a few pages, which indeed contained detailed records of the symbolic meanings and arrangement rules of numerous floral patterns, as well as how to combine them into image sequences with specific meanings.

Close the book.

Elheisen looked at Nasita: "You seem to pay special attention to him!"

The fact that Wang Yan was promoted to the rank of [Tuosata] was an exception, and that the books he needed were prepared here, clearly indicates that something is going on!

Nasita smiled and said, "He bears a resemblance to the traveler to some extent."

"Traveler—" Elhesen frowned, pondered for a moment, and nodded. "I understand."

"As expected of you, Your Excellency the Scribe." Nasita's smile grew even brighter. "There's a cargo ship conducting a transport experiment tomorrow; you can go there on your way."

"I thought the project had been discontinued."

"It was originally supposed to be suspended, but a wealthy businessman sponsored the project."

Nasita waved her hand: "Alright, I should go now. I'll leave the other side to you, Secretary Elhesen."

After saying that, she disappeared from the spot.

Elhesen stood there, holding the document given to him by Nasita, his self-glow flickering involuntarily.

"Wang Yan—is he really valued so much by the gods? He bears a resemblance to the Traveler—ha—I hope he's not a problem."
