Successfully completing the first step wasn't bad, but the problem was that the quest had lost its fixed goal because they had to search for the next quest clue themselves.
Explorations and reasoning for quests were quite popular in online games. In fact, the previous types of mindless quests where you just had to click on something wasn't very popular anymore. Reasoning was a very important selling point in online games. As a result, Worlds Apart and the others' reasoning and explorations were quite good and they were used to this type of mode.
Unfortunately, even though their abilities were good, they encountered a big problem. When they arrived at the Terran National Library, they discovered a big problem. The library was too big.
Midas Royal Library was the Terran National Library. This library was built very early. It could be said that this building had witnessed the history of human feudal civilization (in the game). Of course, it had been renovated several times. The current style was a bit strange, and it didn't match the buildings next to it. This was because this building was located in the northeast corner of the Human Main City. It was located in the Noble District. Most of the buildings in the Noble District were white or golden in color, highlighting the holy and pure meaning of light. However, only this building had a grayish-black theme. Although it was a bit abrupt, it made people calm down when they saw it.
The library was open to Nobles because there weren't many literate commoners. Even if you opened it to commoners, not many would come. Even if you opened it to commoners, they would only come to enjoy the cool air. Of course, the management here was lax. As long as you didn't steal books, the surrounding guards wouldn't really check your identity. So, it wasn't strange for commoners to come in.
Li Huailin and the others entered very easily. There was no place in the city that Li Huailin couldn't go. However, even though they entered, they didn't expect the library to be too big. In the middle of the library was a huge statue of a person wearing a mage robe. Of course, Li Huailin didn't recognize him. Around the statue was a staircase. From the middle, the library had eight floors. From top to bottom, there were all kinds of bookshelves. They were also filled with books. Just looking at the bookshelves made them dizzy.
"Duke." The person who walked over was the library's curator. Although the curator sounded like a civil official, he was actually a general in armor. As for why, Li Huailin didn't know.
"How many books are there …" The Summoning Jade Emperor sighed.
"About 12 million books," said the librarian named Luo Da.
"F * ck..." Li Huailin facepalmed. "That's right, that little Blue Man (Leidra) mentioned that he was a noble of the Soweida Principality. Do you know where the books about the Soweida Principality are kept?"
"Eh? Is there such a duchy? " Roda recalled for a moment. "Your Excellency, I have never heard of this duchy. Is it a small duchy?"
"It might have perished or been destroyed." Li Huailin immediately said.
"This …" Looking at Roda's expression, he knew that he had never heard of it. However, when Li Huailin asked him, he didn't dare to say that he didn't know. After thinking for a moment, Roda said, "Your Excellency, the history books are on the third floor. The third to sixth floors are all history books."
"…" Li Huailin stared at Roda without saying anything. He stared at Roda until he was a little scared.
"Your Excellency, I have never heard of it. That's right, I will send someone to look for it for you. Look for it immediately, "Roda quickly said. After all, he was the library's curator. He still had many subordinates. He immediately said," You guys, hurry up and work for me! Go and look for it! "
At this time, Roda's subordinates were basically standing beside Roda. Li Huailin was here. Even the curator was here. How could they not be here? Therefore, when they heard Li Huailin's words, they immediately prepared to look for it.
"I will give you an hour." Li Huailin looked at the time in the system. It was now past four in the afternoon. An hour was the time for dinner. Li Huailin hoped to find clues before then.
"Hurry up and look for it!" Roda was a general. He didn't know how to say anything good. He could only vent his anger at his subordinates. Of course, his subordinates quickly began to work and went upstairs to look for books.
"Your Excellency, this way please." Roda immediately said. He led Li Huailin and the others to a very clean long table at the end of the first floor. The lighting here was excellent. It was a good place to read. The servant next to him quickly served tea to Li Huailin and the others. "Your Excellency, wait here for a while. There should be results soon …"
"Let's help look for it too." Ru Feng said.
"Wow, it can't be. There are so many books up there. There are more than six million books on the third to sixth floor. How are we going to find it?" Li Huailin said. "Let the professionals look for it …"
"But Your Excellency, these people are not professionals." Roda looked at Li Huailin's expression and said.
"Huh? Aren't you the library's curator? "Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, but I was only transferred here last month." Roda said. I used to be the captain of the Royal Guards' second brigade, and these subordinates were just brought here …
"…" Li Huailin looked at Luo Da and did not speak for a long time. Luo Da was a little flustered from being stared at and quickly explained to Li Huailin. It turned out that this matter had something to do with Li Huailin. A month ago, Li Huailin was framed for Anthony's assassination. After that, Marshal Wilham of the First Legion was transferred to the Royal Guards. Then, of course, he began to reorganize. Some "troublemakers" and useless veterans were naturally eliminated. So, Roda was transferred here. The library was a marginal department in the Empire, and Roda had just taken over the library.
"What about the previous curator? What about the previous librarian? "Li Huailin asked immediately.
"The previous curator has been hanged for implicating the old party. I don't know where the librarians are," Roda said immediately. Roda immediately said, "When I got here, it was like this. It was basically empty."
"…" Li Huailin was almost speechless. How could this be? "Okay, okay, okay. Anyway, let's look around first. Then, send someone out to see if there's anyone who knows how many books are here and where they are kept. Hurry."
"Yes, Your Excellency," Roda said immediately.
"This is really a headache." Li Huailin said a little gloomily. He really did not want to spend too much time here because he was going to do an SS-level mission tomorrow afternoon. He did not have much time to spend looking for books. "Among the people I know, is there anyone who is well-read … I don't think so …"
Li Huailin recalled a little. The people he knew were basically generals and civil officials. Although Li Huailin had seen them before, he could not remember any of their names. This was a little troublesome. It would be good if he could find someone he could ask …
"Oh, right!" Suddenly, Li Huailin remembered something. He seemed to have a more knowledgeable guy by his side. He waved his hand, and Li Huailin called a servant next to him. "You, go to my Duke's Mansion and ask my second wife to come over."
"There's a wife in your Duke's Mansion?" Raging Wind was stunned when he heard this. Everyone turned around. Obviously, everyone was very curious about this matter. "An NPC? Have you tried with an NPC … "
"Yes, yes, an NPC can really …" Twinkle Tangerine also asked.
"F * ck off. Who the f * ck has tried? Is it just in name?" Li Huailin said immediately. "Do you still want to do the mission?"
"Yes, yes, yes …" Raging Wind said immediately, but his eyes were still very curious.
"Your Excellency, I found it!" As they were speaking, a voice came from the side.
"What? Found it? It went so smoothly?" As soon as Li Huailin stood up, he saw a guard walking over with a stack of about 50 books. When he placed the books on the table, there was a "dong" sound. At the same time, a cloud of dust flew up.
"F * ck, all of this?" Li Huailin asked as he pointed at the pile of books on the table.
"No, there's still a lot of information. I'm still moving it," the guard said immediately. "If I didn't look for it, I wouldn't have known. There are really a lot of books that mention Su Weida Principality …"
"Why the f * ck are you giving me so much? Are you going to let me finish reading? "Li Huailin asked the guard.
"No, no, no, Your Excellency, but there are really a lot …" the guard said immediately.
As he spoke, a whole row of people walked over with books in their hands. Li Huailin casually glanced at them. There were at least a thousand books in this group of people. They were placed on the table, almost filling up the long table.
"…" Li Huailin looked at the pile of books and then looked at the guard. "What the f * ck are you doing? Aren't you going to look for clues?"
They didn't expect there to be so many books. The group of people quickly began to search, but the problem was that before they could flip through a few books, people continued to move books down. They didn't find any useful information, but the books on the table were getting more and more.
"F * ck, what should I do?" Just as Li Huailin looked at the pile of books and didn't know what to do, someone finally came to help.
"Your Excellency Husband, are you here?" A clear female voice came from the door. At this time, not only Li Huailin, but Raging Wind, Raging Wind, and Raging Wind looked up curiously, ready to see what the situation was with Li Huailin's "wife". Then …
"Uh … This is your second wife?"
