Oops, overslept!

Knowing that Zu Yu was in a hurry to find information, Cecil was not a procrastination character, so he quickly took the time to accompany Zu Yu to the Federal Central Library.

As stated on the website introduction, this library covers an area no less than that of a small and medium-sized town. The uniform circular buildings are simple and bright, and each building is the same height. You can walk into a building casually , the ten-story high-rise building has been opened up. From the center of the lobby on the first floor, the ceiling of the top floor can be seen. The walls of each floor are filled with books. There are a lot of people in the entire library. For the convenience of entering and exiting , in addition to the transparent elevator in the center, there is also a hoverboard for people to go up and down, standing on it, the hoverboard will take you to where you want to go.

In the corridor next to it, there are seats for people to rest and read books. The robot selling drinks walks through the floors. People in need only need to enter the desired drink in the purchase box next to the table and pay, and the robot will deliver the drink to you. Come.

Of course, if you want something to eat, they don't sell anything other than bread.

Although there are people everywhere, it is not noisy at all. Everyone speaks softly according to the rules, even turning the pages of the book carefully.

Zu Yu often went to the library when he was still in college on earth, but now he was shocked when he got here, and then he lowered his voice.

"How did we get here? Aren't we going to Building No. 89?" Before he came, he found out that books related to Huaxia are stored in Building No. 89, and they are now in Building No. 1. Most of them are new books published by the Federation in recent years, and the categories are very complicated. Newly published books usually stay in Building 1 for a few years, and then they are divided into other buildings according to the situation.

What Zu Yu was looking for could not be found here.

Cecil said: "I'll show you someone."

Cecil took Zu Yu to meet the chief librarian of the Federal Central Library.

The curator was very excited when he saw them, and he grabbed Cecil's hand and shook it vigorously.

"Mr. Melved, thank you very much for your support to our work. The delivery of these books is really timely."

"You are welcome."

"No, no, it's really thanks to your support this time."

After listening to the curator's excited talk for a long time, Zu Yu found out that it was Cecil Melved who had taken out some of the private books at home not long ago and reprinted a batch of them to the Federation in the name of donation. Central Library, and this batch of books happened to be Chinese ancient books.

Recently, because people in the entire Federation are working hard to cultivate, they have become extremely enthusiastic about Chinese culture. There are also a lot of people who borrow all kinds of Chinese books from the library, but the books they keep are all It is a relatively modern document in the earth period, and ancient books are extremely rare, but if you are practicing, it is more useful to read more ancient books.

The books donated by Cecil can be said to have solved their urgent needs, not to mention that there are many rare and rare books in them. Although they are reprinted, they are also extremely precious.

Zu Yu originally thought that Cecil donated the books after he knew that he wanted to come to the library to find books, but after hearing from the curator, Zu Yu knew that the donation was earlier.

It was almost not long after the press conference, so it's no wonder the curator was so excited.

After exchanging pleasantries, the curator remembered to ask Cecil why he came: "I don't know if Mr. Melved is here today?"

Cecil said that they came to find books related to Chinese monsters.

Zu Yu added: "Preferably medicines, those that are not on the website."

As soon as the curator heard it, he understood that they must have come here because they couldn't find the book they were looking for in the published book list.

And since it is a book that has not been published to the public, it must require specific permissions to read it.

Cecil's authority was already high, and with the previous donation, the curator took them to find the book without saying a word.

On the way, he also explained to the two of them: "The books on ancient China are all in Building 89, and those that are not open to the public are also there, but they are in the library below."

Zu Yu heard the words and asked: "Does every building have an underground library?"

"Yes, there are under every building. After all, there are many books that are not easy to disclose to the public."

There are also many particularly precious books in their library, and they are the only ones. Such books are not suitable for borrowing, so naturally they should be collected carefully.

After they arrived at Building 89, Zu Yu found that there were more people here than in Building 1. The tables and chairs for people to sit and read on the corridors of each floor were full of people, and many of them could not find a place. The most interesting thing is that Zu Yu glanced over and saw that many people were translating on their personal terminals while holding books in their hands. The elementary textbooks used—probably elementary school textbooks and the like.

"Recently, because of the cultivation method released by your company, many people came here to borrow books in Chinese language. Although we have added a batch, the supply is still in short supply."

The curator led them through the hall, walked to the elevator for internal personnel only, and swiped their cards to lead them into the underground library.

Like the ground, the underground library is also a very large space. The books in the ten-meter-high underground part are kept more closely, and all the books are stored on the bookshelves separately.

Perhaps because of the recent rise of Chinese civilization, there are quite a few people in this venue. Although it is not as crowded as the one above, there are still hundreds of people scattered in it.

Moreover, the people who read books here seem to be old and pedantic. Young people like Zu Yu and Cecil are very rare. When they got out of the elevator, the people nearby couldn't help but glance at them. They were quickly recognized.

But even though he recognized it, no one stepped forward to bother him. Only one librarian here came over to say hello to the librarian.

"The Huaxia books that are not open to the public are all here. You can look up the books you want on the screen on the table. If you are sure which one you want to read, the service robot here will send the book over."

The curator gave them a brief introduction to the basic situation here, and said that he could ask the administrator if he had any questions. After making sure that Cecil had nothing else to do, he left first.

Without bothering the administrator here, Zu Yu and Cecil found a free place, and began to call up the catalog of the books collected here on the screen on the table. Once the catalog came out, it was true that they had never seen it on the website before. books.

These book catalogs are all written in Huaxia language, and the classification is also very detailed, and the search system is extremely intelligent, as long as you explain what kind of books you are looking for, the system here will list all the relevant bibliographies , to ensure that there will be no mistakes or omissions.

What they were looking for were books about medicinal materials and plants published by the monsters after they entered the federation. If the books published before that were excluded, the book list would be much smaller.

Wei Zu Yu did not delete the list, but first selected [-] books in batches from the list of these books, and the robots in the venue began to deliver the books after he confirmed them.

Not long after, there was a thick stack of books in front of Zu Yu. These books that appeared in the Great Mixed Blood Period were preserved like new ones, as if they had never been read by anyone.

Zu Yu and Cecil each took a book and flipped through it, because they didn't need to read carefully, and both of them had good eyesight, so they flipped through the book very quickly. In the eyes of others, they were not reading a book at all, but Turning the pages of the book is really eye-catching.

Someone curiously discussed with his companion in a low voice: "What do you think they are looking for?"

"I don't know, but it must be something important for Cecil Melved to come and find it in person."

"It looks like they are all books about plants."

"Plants? If you read those books correctly, they should not be produced by the earth, and the plants in them may not be from the earth. Why don't they go to the botanical hall to find them?"

"If you're curious, I'll borrow those books later, they're all here anyway."

"I'm not that boring."

Zu Yu didn't care what others were talking about, after he read a few books, he really found one that was useful.

It was a book called "Illustrated Book of Magical Plants". The name seemed ordinary, but when you read it, you will find that all the plants mentioned in this book have medicinal effects.

And when Zu Yu turned the page, he happened to see a familiar plant.

"Look quickly." Zu Yu pulled Lacecil.

Cecil turned his head and saw that on the brand-new pages of the book, a lotus flower that was as bright as a flame, with the imprint of a flying bird on its petals, was proudly blooming.

"Fire Phoenix Lotus, this is it!"

Cecil looked at the introduction next to it. The Federal language name of this flower is Crowley's Firebird Flower, and the Fire Phoenix Lotus is written in Chinese characters below the other name. If you just look at the name, you really can't connect it.

This "Magical Plant Illustrated Book" is very thick, and it is also a series of books. Besides this one, there are nine other books, because this book is the last one of the twenty books he ordered, so the remaining He didn't find the nine books that he had downloaded, but now that he found the medicinal material he was looking for, Zu Yu immediately found the remaining nine books as well.

When the robot delivered the rest of the books, the two worked together, and sure enough, they found other medicinal materials in the next few books.

The books here are not for borrowing, but taking pictures is not prohibited. Zu Yu was looking for and taking pictures, and felt that this book might be of great use in the future, so he wondered if he could get a set and send it to Dr. Ford.

"He likes studying alchemy so much, this book must be useful to him."

This set of books seems to be about illustrations and simple descriptions of many magical plants in the Federation, but in fact it is a classic of medicinal materials. It's a treasure, Zu Yu doubts that this set of books is actually written by a monster who can make alchemy.

"You don't need to give the original, just let us make a copy."

"I'll ask the curator later."
