Chapter 101: Going To Library

After leaving the central office, Zeus made his way to the Celestial Academy's library. The towering structure loomed before him, its grand architecture hinting at the vast knowledge contained within.

This was one of the academy's most revered buildings, a place where countless manuals, spells, and martial arts techniques were stored—a treasure trove for anyone seeking power. S~eaʀᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

As Zeus approached, a sense of anticipation bubbled within him. This library held the resources he needed to further his growth, to sharpen his abilities and refine his techniques.

Today, he wasn't just here to browse; he was here to arm himself with the knowledge that could elevate him even further.

Upon entering the library, Zeus was greeted by an officer stationed near the entrance. The officer, a stern-looking man with sharp features and an air of authority, glanced up from his post. His eyes briefly flickered with recognition as he took in Zeus's appearance.

"Your ID card, please," the officer requested, his tone formal yet polite.

Zeus nodded and handed over his ID card without hesitation. The officer took the card, examining it closely for a moment. As he did, a slight smile tugged at the corners of his lips, softening his otherwise stern demeanor.

"So," the officer said, looking up at Zeus with a hint of curiosity in his eyes, "you're the new third-ranked outer disciple."

Zeus returned the smile, his confidence evident in his posture. "Yes, that's right," he replied, his tone steady, reflecting the satisfaction of his recent achievement.

The officer's smile widened, and he handed back the ID card. "Congratulations. It's not every day we get someone new in the top three. You must've worked hard for it."

Zeus accepted the card, tucking it away as he nodded. "I did," he said, a touch of pride in his voice. "But I'm just getting started."

The officer chuckled, clearly impressed by Zeus's resolve. "I like that attitude," he said, motioning toward the grand staircase that spiraled up through the center of the library. "You're allowed access up to the third floor now."

He paused, then continued with a slight tilt of his head, as if sharing a secret. "The first floor is dedicated to one-star cultivation manuals, spells, and martial arts.

You'll find the basics there, solid foundations. The second floor is where the two-star techniques are housed—more advanced, more potent."

Zeus listened intently, his curiosity piqued.

"But the third floor," the officer said, lowering his voice slightly as if to emphasize its importance, "that's where you'll find the three-star manuals and above. Techniques that can make or break a cultivator at your level."

Zeus's eyes gleamed with interest. "Sounds like the third floor is where I'll be spending most of my time."

The officer nodded, a knowing smile on his face. "No doubt. But remember, you can only borrow two manuals at a time. Choose wisely—each one could be the key to unlocking your next breakthrough."

Zeus gave a slight nod, his expression thoughtful. "Understood. I'll make sure to pick carefully."

The officer leaned back, his smile turning more formal as he resumed his authoritative demeanor. "Good. Then go ahead, and make the most of your access. You've earned it."

"Thanks," Zeus said, his tone carrying both gratitude and determination.

With that, he turned and ascended the grand staircase, his mind already racing with possibilities. The library stretched out before him, each floor promising new knowledge, new power.

As he climbed, Zeus felt a surge of excitement—this was just the beginning of his journey to greatness, and the tools he needed were now within his grasp.

With that, Zeus stepped past the officer and into the library. As he crossed the threshold, he was immediately struck by the vastness of the interior.

The inside of the library was far larger than its exterior suggested, clearly enhanced by spatial magic to accommodate the endless rows of shelves filled with ancient tomes and scrolls.

Zeus marveled at the vastness of the library's interior, taking in the endless rows of shelves filled with ancient tomes and scrolls.

The space seemed to stretch infinitely, far larger on the inside than its exterior suggested. The enchantments that expanded the library's interior were impressive, but Zeus knew he had no time to waste admiring the architecture. There was work to be done.

Refocusing on his task, Zeus walked over to one of the nearby shelves and pulled out a thick, leather-bound book.

The weight of it felt satisfying in his hands, a promise of the knowledge it contained. Without hesitation, he opened it and began to read. His eyes moved over the pages at an incredible speed, absorbing the information in mere seconds.

[Well, well, look at you, pretending to read like a normal person,] the system's voice chimed in, dripping with its usual arrogance. [I've recorded it all already. Now, stop playing around and grab the next one. We've got a lot to cover.]

Zeus couldn't help but smile at the system's impatience, pleased with how efficiently they were working together. "Always in such a rush," he remarked, his tone light but teasing. "But fine, let's keep going."

[Of course, we're in a rush! You think power waits for the lazy? Besides, I don't want to be stuck here all day watching you fumble through these books. We've got bigger fish to fry,] the system retorted, shameless and eager for more knowledge.

Zeus chuckled softly, already reaching for the next manual on the shelf. "Alright, alright. No need to get worked up. Let's see what else we can find."

[That's the spirit,] the system replied, its tone smug. [With me recording everything, you're going to breeze through this place in no time. Just try to keep up, will you?]

Zeus's smile widened as he continued to pull book after book from the shelves, rapidly scanning each one.

The vast knowledge contained within the library was now at his fingertips, and with the system's relentless drive pushing him forward, he was ready to absorb every bit of it. The thought of the power and strategies he would gain made his heart race with excitement.
