Demon King, Don’t Run Away

Chapter 181: Tapping her curiosity

Views:

Yang Yu was not interested in how the martial arts examiners beat other candidates.

Since you cannot enter the Library of All Things right away, choose to stay here, build a good relationship with Barona, and lay the groundwork for future plots.

"The library is really strict with us monster users. It's not easy for me to be admitted to the Library of All Things. It's really unfair to be treated like this just for bringing a harmless slime."

It seemed that he was talking to himself, but in fact, Yang Yu was deliberately complaining in a voice that Barona could hear clearly.

"Whether it is really harmless to humans and animals is not up to you alone to decide."

Barona could naturally hear the hidden meaning in Yang Yu's words, and looked at He Meng who was vaguely visible in Bai Jin's hood.

"Besides, I can sense strong magic power from your slime. It is at least a noble-level slime. This kind of slime usually doesn't come to the surface. How did you two get to know each other and make a contract?"

"I have written the process very clearly in the document."

"Your description is too general. Is it true that nothing special ever happened between you and your slime?"

Anything special? I guess not.

Yang Yu thought carefully. Since He Meng followed him, he had been of use only a few times. Most of the time he was just fishing in troubled waters and eating melons crazily. He was simply a big salted fish.

Of course, it would be a lie to say that there was no love between them.

Although Yang Yu has always adopted a free-range model for He Meng, he has fed it for such a long time that he has developed some feelings for it.

If He Meng ran away one day in the future, Yang Yu would want to grab He Meng with a toilet spoon and make it spit out all the four-leaf clovers it had eaten.

"After thinking about it carefully, it seems that there really isn't one. The reason why it follows me is probably because I have a special skill."

"Special skills?" Hearing this, Barona became interested, "What kind of skills?"

"I can't tell you that for now." Yang Yu smiled slightly, "Rather than that, I have a question I want to ask you."

"Oh." Seeing that Yang Yu was not going to let go, Barona immediately became nonchalant, "What's the problem?"

"This is about..." Yang Yu hesitated and shook his head. "I think it's better to forget it. Even if I tell you, I don't think you will give me the correct answer."

Yang Yu's sudden silence made Baronak's eyebrows slightly raised, and a trace of curiosity jumped out of her heart, "If you don't tell me, how do you know I won't give you the correct answer?"

Sitting on the bench opposite the registration office, Yang Yu picked up the palm-sized library membership rules and slowly turned to the first page.

"Because I realized before I opened my mouth that you couldn't give me a correct answer, so I stopped before I opened my mouth."

Yang Yu's nonchalant look left a deep impression in Baronake's eyes. She didn't know what Yang Yu wanted to say, but she felt vaguely that Yang Yu knew something.

Barona didn't want to admit this feeling, so she said, "Young man, don't make a mistake. This is the Library of Everything, and all knowledge is clearly priced. If you want to use your cleverness to get knowledge beyond your authority from me, I advise you not to waste your efforts."

Yang Yu responded to Baronak with a cold voice, "Some knowledge can indeed be clearly priced, but some knowledge, or the rules hidden in the dark, cannot be clearly priced. Speaking out about it is not even allowed."

After saying this, Yang Yu raised his head and looked at Baronak, "It's like a woman's age. If I ask you, can you give me a real answer?"

Barona was speechless. Her real age could not be mentioned casually. She had claimed to be more than 20 years old, and few people knew her real age until now.

"Well, I never counted on the Council of Elders of the Library of All Things from the beginning." The sternness on Yang Yu's face turned into indifference. "I want to seek an explanation for the monster user who was rejected before. This is just one of my many goals. As for things that will affect the survival of the library, it has nothing to do with me, and I will not work hard for it."

"Young man, I know you can say some very exaggerated things without changing your expression, but I advise you not to say anything pretentious. You must be responsible for your words."

"Whether it is just a trick or not, time will tell. I didn't expect you to believe me at the beginning, just treat it as my crazy talk."

At this point, Yang Yu turned a new page and said nonchalantly, "If you're lucky, you can discover the disaster very early and avoid tragedy; if you're unlucky, you can only start from scratch, or disappear in the long river of history."

Ask for an explanation for the monster user who was rejected? Could it be that he knew the real reason why the Library of All Things rejected monster users

Looking at Yang Yu, Baronak fell into deep thought.

This should be impossible as there are only a handful of people who know the truth, and each of them is extremely reliable, so there is no possibility of leakage.

So, he was bluffing

Putting her elbows on the table, Barona clasped her fingers together, supported her chin, and her eyes revealed determination and confidence.

"Since the establishment of the Library of All Things, we have encountered countless disasters. You'd better not underestimate the strength of our library."

Over the past few hundred years, the Library of All Things has continued to expand its influence, attracting countless talents, and can crush other human countries in terms of both economy and strength.

Barona firmly believed that even if there was a disaster, they could easily deal with it with the powerful strength of their library.

"I don't underestimate it. Some things are destroyed precisely because they are too powerful."

After saying that, Yang Yu continued to lower his head and flip through the manual, looking at the entries, waiting for the martial arts exam to end.

On the surface, Yang Yu seems to be as steady as an old dog, but in fact, he is extremely steady.

In this world, the Library of All Things is a top-notch combat force. After the arrival of the Demon King, the Library of All Things will surely be a thorn in the Demon King's side.

As long as the devil is not stupid, he will try every possible way to get rid of it as soon as possible.

The devil's arrival must be sudden, and there is a high probability that the devil will come in before the world can react.

Even if the Library of All Things could deploy the barrier instantly, it would certainly be a last-minute effort.

This approach is like putting on half of your clothes in a hurry. You think you are safe, but it makes the Demon King's army more excited.

Sometimes, resistance seems romantic.

This is true for conquering men and for conquering the world.

The Demon King will come to this world in the near future, and the attack on the library itself can be used as a bargaining chip.

As a civilian, Yang Yu would certainly not miss the opportunity to use this bargaining chip. He had already planted the seeds of curiosity in Baronake's heart. All that was left to do was to wait for the seeds to take root and sprout, and continue to tap her curiosity.
