114 The Sea of Books Is Vast, Repent and Be Saved
When he arrived at the information library, the moment Wang Xiao entered, he was really shocked by the arrangements inside.
From the outside, this was only an ordinary building. After entering, he realized that there was actually only one floor inside. Moreover, there were no pillars in the space of a few hundred square meters. It was completely supported by bookshelves nearly 30 meters tall made of Iron Core Wood.
Looking at the students climbing up and down the ladder with their bare hands, Wang Xiao could not help but swallow subconsciously. “There’s not even a protective measure on this ladder. Aren’t they afraid of falling?”
“Of course they’re afraid.”
Xu Junrou smiled bitterly and sighed helplessly. “But the academy head said that this is also a form of training. It’s a double test of stamina and courage.”
Wang Xiao was speechless by this theory. However, when he thought of Yuheng Academy’s usual style, he felt that this kind of thing seemed quite normal.
After a simple tour, Wang Xiao arrived at the mutated beast area under Xu Junrou’s lead.
There were a total of seven bookshelves in this area, and on average, there were more than ten thousand books on each shelf. However, Wang Xiao did not know that there was an introduction to the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] in that book. In other words, he could only read them one by one…
“You’re really asking for trouble!”
Wang Xiao muttered and casually took out a book at the bottom. Just as he flipped through two pages, he thought of something and looked at Xu Junrou. “If you have something to do, go back first. Also, tell Zhou Xiruo that she doesn’t have to wait for me after school.”
“After school?”
Xu Junrou sneered and looked up at the nearly 30-meter-tall bookshelf. “If no one helps you, you probably won’t be able to find it by next year!”
Wang Xiao sighed. “How do you and Yi Han usually find information? Do you also flip through the books one by one?”
“Of course not. We have the help of experts!”
Xu Junrou chuckled and then revealed a troubled expression. “However, you’re unlucky today. He went to a large secret realm and will probably only return in two to three days.”
“A large secret realm?”
Wang Xiao was stunned. “The expert you’re talking about is a university student?”
“No, he’s in the same batch as us.”
“Same batch?!”
Wang Xiao exclaimed and almost threw out the book he had just opened!
This was because according to what he knew, the [Myriad World Secret Realm] was divided into small, medium, large, and super large.
Legend had it that beyond super-large secret realms, there were true secret realms that formed a huge world of their own. However, the “legend” had been passed down for many years, but no one had seen it with their own eyes.
Among the first four confirmed types of secret realms, the highest level a new lord like Wang Xiao could come into contact with was a [medium-sized secret realm].
The entrances of the [Large Mystic Realm] were only located in universities. Moreover, because the situation inside was complicated and dangerous, one had to at least raise the lord core to level six to enter.
However, now, a student from the same batch as him could actually enter a [Large Mystic Realm] that lasted for a few days. How could Wang Xiao not be shocked?
Seeing Wang Xiao’s huge reaction, Xu Junrou hurriedly explained, “You’ve misunderstood. He just has a better memory. It can almost be said that he has a photographic memory.”
“Recently, the military discovered a new large secret realm. They were worried that an unexpected situation would cause the information to be damaged, so they asked him to go and help and make some relevant records.”
“That’s still very impressive…”
Wang Xiao praised sincerely and could not help but develop a strong interest in this “expert” because he was simply a “living dictionary of a secret realm”!
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao hurriedly looked at Xu Junrou. “When he comes back, is it convenient for you to introduce us?”
Xu Junrou looked troubled when she heard this. “I’m alright with it, but his personality is a little strange. You might not be able to take it.”
“It’s fine. He’s a genius! Geniuses always have some quirks.”
Wang Xiao chuckled indifferently. After all, he thought that his social skills were not bad. He should be able to deal with even strange people.
It was not until he saw the legendary “expert” three days later that Wang Xiao realized that he was still too naive. However, that was all in the future and could not be mentioned for the time being.
At the moment.
After agreeing with Xu Junrou, Wang Xiao continued to search for information about the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon].
Although there were many books here, Wang Xiao quickly discovered that there was a pattern to the arrangement of these books.
First, the books were divided according to the quality of the mutated beasts, from black iron to diamond. Then, it would be further divided according to the attributes of the mutated beasts. Even if some information covered several mutated beasts of different attributes, they would still be divided into a few parts according to this pattern.
After grasping this rule, Wang Xiao quickly found the [Platinum Quality] Mutated Beast Information Area. Unfortunately, there was no special division for multi-attribute mutated beasts here.
However, compared to finding a needle in a haystack previously, being able to reduce the range to [Platinum Quality] could already increase Wang Xiao’s efficiency by a lot.
At the same time, Xu Junrou did not stay idle. She climbed up another ladder to help search.
However, as the books were returned to their original place, Wang Xiao also became anxious. This was because he had searched nearly a thousand documents himself, but he did not even see the words “Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon”.
The sea of books was vast. Repent and there was a shore.
Just as Wang Xiao was about to completely lose his patience, Xu Junrou suddenly shouted from afar, “Wang Xiao! Come quickly! I found it!”
“What?!”
Wang Xiao perked up and turned around to see Xu Junrou holding up a document. However, the title on it was “High Level Purple Star Soldier Index”.
Seeing this name, Wang Xiao instantly lost interest. “The [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] is a Crimson Star soldier. Did you see wrongly?”
“That’s impossible. This clearly says [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]!”
As Xu Junrou spoke, she directly spread out the information and showed the picture inside to Wang Xiao. “If you don’t believe me, take a look yourself!”
Wang Xiao was actually not too interested, but he did not want to let Xu Junrou down. He could only patiently turn around and look. He did not expect to be unable to look away.
Although the picture on the information was said to be a “picture”, it was actually a hand-drawn painting. However, Wang Xiao still recognized at a glance the black armor covering his entire body, the two horns on his forehead, and the pair of thin flesh wings on his back!
Wang Xiao’s eyes lit up. He directly jumped down from a height of five to six meters. When he landed, he rolled to offset the momentum before climbing back up the ladder to where Xu Junrou was. Then, he took the information and focused on it. The expression on his face immediately became interesting.
“It’s really the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon!”
Wang Xiao exclaimed and closed the information to look at the title. “But why is it in the ‘High-level Purple Star Soldier Index’? Commander Chen clearly said that the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] is a Crimson Star soldier?”
As soon as he said this, Wang Xiao’s expression immediately changed. Could it be that Chen Jinrong had lied to him again?
However, what was the difference between [Purple Star Soldier] and [Crimson Star Soldier]? Why would Chen Jinrong lie about such a thing?
