2718 The little ghost spirit in the library (1)
The Academy’s library was abnormally large. Although it was only one floor, it was more than twenty meters tall.
The area it occupied was also very large, with a length and width of more than 100 meters. There were many huge pillars supporting the ceiling, and rows of bookshelves were placed inside.
The faint smell of books wafted in the library.
For book lovers, this was a true Holy Land, making people feel as if they were in an ocean of books.
There was plenty of light here, and the huge pillars were full of shining gems that were constantly emitting a white light.
The huge bookshelf was about fifteen meters tall, and it was filled with all kinds of books. Not only was it very beautiful, but it was also a kind of mechanism.
The surface of the bookshelves was covered with thick layer of paste. One could tell with a single glance that they had a long history, at least several hundred years old.
As long as one pressed the button on the shelf, one could freely switch between the levels and find the book one wanted.
It was definitely not allowed to choose books by flying around. How would that be appropriate?
Just like other libraries, no noise was allowed here. Otherwise, the strange tentacled creature floating above would throw the person who made the noise out without hesitation.
This kind of strange parasitic creature that lived on the roof naturally hated noise, so it was perfect to be the keeper of order in the library.
As for the origin of the monster, not many people could explain it clearly, but many students believed that it was the product of scientific research.
In this Elite Academy, there were many strange subjects. The research and study content was also amazing.
Take Tang Zhen as an example. Before he came, he had already been selected to study the content of special Warframes.
Even the elite cultivator Academies were still interested in the power of the special Warframes and were ready to conduct in-depth research and have the opportunity to promote it on the battlefield.
This was because it had been proven that a small team of special Warframes could kill a descender in their full form.
If an elite cultivator was equipped with a special armor, how much would his combat power increase? would he be able to kill higher level monsters?
Tang Zhen did not know about these matters. He would probably have to wait until this time tomorrow before he would know about the Academy’s specific arrangements.
In fact, no matter what the Academy arranged, Tang Zhen would not pay much attention to it. His original goal was to enter the upper echelons of the demon subduing unit.
However, after knowing the role of the Academy, Tang Zhen suddenly discovered a problem. That was, his future path had already been determined.
No matter how outstanding their performance was, they would still have to step into the battlefield and become cannon fodder in the War of the Gods.
Fortunately, this process did not affect his hunting of the Aboriginal deities, nor did it delay his search for the consciousness embodiment of the ruler of gods.
Since it would not affect him, there was no need for Tang Zhen to leave. He only needed to perform as usual.
After Tang Zhen entered the library, a little spirit ghost with two pairs of wings flew over and asked Tang Zhen what kind of service he needed.
They were the service staff of the library. They could help to answer simple questions or find the corresponding books according to the requests of the readers.
The price for using the little ghost spirit was a coin issued by the Academy, and it could be obtained through various methods.
Whether it was a bounty mission or a challenge, there was a chance to get the corresponding reward.
There were many ways to earn money in the Academy. As long as one was not particularly lazy, it might not be difficult to obtain these coins.
I want books that introduce the various gods. The more detailed the content, the better.
Tang Zhen said with an indifferent expression. This was not a taboo and could be mentioned in public.
Every cultivator in the demon subduing troop had their own God, as long as it was not an evil god.
alright, Sir. You will receive the best service. However, according to the rules here, please pay one coin first.
The little ghost spirit used a soft voice to remind the newbie in front of him.
Perhaps it felt that Tang Zhen was not someone to be trifled with, but the little spirit cowered and looked like it was about to cry.
The new students were actually very easy to recognize. Whether it was their uniforms or the accessories on their bodies, they were very different from the old students.
Unlike the senior students, there were often misers among the new students who were very unfriendly to the little spirit.
“No problem, this is the reward you deserve.”
As Tang Zhen spoke, he took out a coin from his pocket. Every new student would receive a hundred coins for free.
This was the currency, and without it, one could not survive. The Academy used this method to force students to obey.
As for escaping from the Academy, it was basically impossible. Whether it was the thousands of meters high peaks or the vast snowfield, it was enough to kill anyone who tried to escape.
“Thank you!”
The little spirit grabbed the coin and stuffed it into the piggy bank at the top of the bookshelf. Then, it revealed a very satisfied expression.
Tang Zhen took a glance. He randomly found a table and sat down before patiently waiting.
It didn’t take long for the little spirit to fly over with a stack of books. From the way it was struggling, it was clear that it had reached its limit.
After placing the book in front of Tang Zhen, the little spirit panted at the side. He turned to Tang Zhen and said, there are many books related to the gods. I’ll have to find them for you slowly, which may take a long time. Please don’t be in a hurry, Sir.
it’s okay. These books are enough for me to read for a long time. You can rest for a while before looking for them.
As Tang Zhen spoke, he opened the book on the top and slowly read it.
The baby-sized ghost spirit rested for a while before looking for the books that Tang Zhen needed again. Then, it sent them over one by one.
It didn’t take long for the book in front of Tang Zhen to turn into a wall, blocking him inside.
“These books are enough, you can rest now.”
Tang Zhen reminded the little spirit after it brought over a few more books. He didn’t want this hardworking little fellow to continue working.
but there are still many books that Yingying has not moved over. Your request has not been completed.
After hearing Tang Zhen’s words, the little spirit ghost revealed a troubled expression. Its thin fingers were twisted together as if doing so would mean that it had failed its duty.
“It’s fine. After all, you have my permission.”
After saying this, Tang Zhen took out five coins from his pocket and placed them in front of the little spirit.
“This is your reward. It shouldn’t be considered a violation, right?”
The little ghost spirit looked at the coin on the table and nodded its head in a daze. Then, it shook its head repeatedly, looking like a rattle-drum.
“What’s going on? why are you nodding and shaking your head?”
The little spirit ghost hurriedly explained to Tang Zhen after hearing this,”The rules allow us to receive rewards, but Sir, you’ve given me too much. I feel that I’m not worthy of it.”
The little ghost Spirit’s mind was pure, and its quality far exceeded that of an ordinary person. This could be seen from this.
“It may seem like a lot to you, but to me, only this number can satisfy me.
You can accept it with a peace of mind and not choose to reject it. Otherwise, it will make such a beautiful thing awkward.”
After hearing Tang Zhen’s words, the little ghost hesitated before nodding. At the same time, she bowed to Tang Zhen.
Dear Sir, you are so kind and generous. I thank you on behalf of my people.
Tang Zhen gently shook his head. Soon after, he used a seemingly casual tone and said,”By right, with your status, you don’t need this money at all, but why do you care so much about making money?”
The little ghost spirit, who was carrying the coins, hesitated upon hearing this, as if it had something to say but didn’t dare to.
“It’s okay. If you have any concerns, you don’t have to tell me.”
The little ghost spirit heaved a sigh of relief and bowed to Tang Zhen once again. It then grabbed the coin and flew to the top of the bookshelf.
Tang Zhen faintly felt that he might be able to find something that would interest him from these little spirits as he watched the little spirits continue to be busy.
Of course, there was no need to rush this matter. As long as he continued to show goodwill, perhaps it would not take long for him to get the information he wanted.
