A library is an institution that collects, organizes and preserves books and materials for people to read and refer to.
When talking about libraries, all kinds of images always come to people's minds inadvertently, including neatly arranged bookshelves, slender students studying hard, and the warm relationship formed when he and she touch the same book.
The Library of All Things, the largest library in the world, contains countless knowledge and information in the world. Yang Yu has imagined what it looks like countless times.
In this game world that is close to reality, the Library of All Things has an exquisite appearance as majestic as a church. Just standing at the foot of the library, one can feel one's own insignificance, and can't help but sigh how insignificant one is compared to the knowledge accumulated by mankind for countless years.
In the library, various books are carefully arranged, collecting countless books from all over the world. People sit around the table, reading quietly and appreciating knowledge.
Outside the library is a vast flat square made of white rose marble, where countless scholars chat and laugh, and debate passionately.
However, when Yang Yu really came to the Library of All Things, he found that there was an unbridgeable gap between imagination and reality.
The Library of All Things, or to be more precise, the library part of the Library of All Things, has five tall square pillars that soar into the sky. If you look closely, you will find that these pillars are like bamboo shoots, stacked up layer by layer.
Yang Yu had a vague feeling that he had seen those pillars somewhere before, and suddenly he recalled them.
Shit, aren't these just some skyscrapers
Indeed, these libraries are similar to the skyscrapers that Yang Yu has seen, so let's call these libraries skyscraper libraries.
As the sun sets, the towering skyscraper library sparkles in the sunset.
Just as Yang Yu was wondering whether these libraries would glow when it got dark, five skyscrapers lit up in five different directions.
From Yang Yu's side, he could just see the entire front of a skyscraper library, and the light from the front gradually formed a row of huge characters.
"The Giant Umbrella Chamber of Commerce of Terun sincerely invites all major chambers of commerce in various countries to cooperate."
Yang Yu was shocked.
It's not just because the light on the skyscraper library forms the words, but the glowing side is actually a scrolling screen.
"Cream Cake Shop, sweet, sweet into your heart, come to Cream Cake Shop for cakes."
"Xiangdangdang Armor Shop, the world-famous number one armor shop. If you want armor, come to Xiangdangdang!"
Advertisements rolled across the surface of the skyscraper library one after another, making Yang Yu feel as if he was back in the big city where he was.
In addition to the five skyscrapers, the most eye-catching things are the magic airships flying in the sky.
However, behind the magic airship there were also glowing banners with various advertising slogans written on them.
Walking into the city built around the skyscraper library, there are many shops along the way, bright lights and wine, hawking sounds, the aroma of various foods permeates the air, dazzling jewelry and diamonds are dazzling, the owner of the weapon shop enthusiastically promotes the solid armor he made to the customers, and the owner of the clothing store also recommends the latest fashions to the ladies in luxurious clothes.
The streets are bustling with people coming and going.
emmmm
Did I come to the wrong place? It feels like this is not a library at all, but a busy commercial district.
Falling into deep doubt, Yang Yu asked Bai Jin and Yias beside him.
"This is what's shown on the map."
"I've been with you for so long, I still know how to look at a map. This is it."
After getting the same answer from the two, Yang Yu slowly regained his composure.
This is undoubtedly the Library of Everything.
There must be a reason why the Library of Everything has become like this! There must be some hidden mission!
Driving the carriage to a stop in front of a hotel, Yang Yu said to the lady at the front desk: "One single room, one double room. And a stable."
"A single room is eight hundred a day, a double room is twelve thousand, and the stable is three hundred a day."
"What? I thought this isn't a luxury hotel, why is it so expensive?"
Yang Yu tilted his head. In the hotel where he stayed before, a double room for 120 yuan was considered luxurious. Now the price of this hotel has increased tenfold.
The clerk at the front desk sighed, "This price is already considered cheap here.
Is this your first time visiting the Library of Everything
It's normal not to know.
Every year, there are a few people who think they can come to the library to take the exam if they have enough money to travel, but they end up begging for several days and sleeping on the street.
If you think it’s expensive, please find another job.”
Yang Yu certainly couldn't tolerate such a high price for such an ordinary accommodation, so he took Bai Jin and Yias to find a new hotel. As a result, that hotel was hundreds of dollars more expensive than the previous one.
Yang Yu continued to go to several hotels, but in the end, he couldn't find a cheap hotel. He could keep the horses in the stables of those hotels for three or four days until he could buy a new one.
In the end, Yang Yu decided to sell the carriage first, and then catch someone who is easy to bully on the street. No, he decided to find a kind-hearted person and ask him about the situation here.
Walking along the street, Yang Yu found a store that was out of place in the busy street - a bookstore.
The white light illuminated every corner of the bookstore, but there were few customers. Only a magician-looking man was sitting in the owner's seat, yawning leisurely.
In a place where the price level is so high, opening such an unprofitable bookstore means that the person is either mentally ill or the bookstore is directly affiliated with the library.
Just as Yang Yu was about to go up and ask the owner about the situation here, a young boy with blue hair trotted into the bookstore and returned a book to the owner.
After the owner put away the books, the boy took out a purple card from his pocket, handed it to the boss, then pointed to a book in the store. After a few words, the boy got the book he wanted from the boss.
Through the panel, Yang Yu got a complete understanding of the boy's background. The boy's name was Shu Jing. He was very intelligent, but his level was only LV1. He was a real civilian.
He wears a pair of huge round-framed glasses, has a thin and frail body, and is fair and clean. He looks easy to bully and kind-hearted.
After locking onto the target, Yang Yu quietly went around to Shu Jing's path back home.
Shu Jing turned around with the book in her arms and bumped into Yang Yu. She fell to the ground with her butt, and the book in her hands slipped to the ground.
Shu Jing quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
Bending down, Yang Yu picked up the book and handed it to Shu Jing, "Are you okay? I should be the one to say sorry, because this place is so different from what I imagined, and I bumped into you without paying attention."
Shu Jing adjusted her glasses and got up. "Thank you for picking up the book and returning it to me. If everything is ok, I'll leave first."
After taking the book, Shu Jing just took a step forward, Yang Yu grabbed the boy's shoulder, with a hint of evil at the corner of his mouth, "Don't be in a hurry to leave! I'm not a bad person."
"Sir, what else do you want?"
Perhaps it was because Yang Yu's smile was too kind, the boy named Shu Jing was trembling with fear, afraid that he had done something wrong again.
"It's nothing, actually. This is my first time at the Library of Everything, and I'm not familiar with many things. If possible," Yang Yu pointed to a cake shop behind him, "can we go there and talk? I have a lot of questions I want to ask you."
