I became the king of villains in the game
Chapter 535 Knowledge is Power
Chapter 535 Knowledge is Power
There are two main buildings at St. Byron's College.
The left side is called "wisdom" and the right side is called "inspiration".
The middle is connected by a long transparent trestle bridge, which is called "Bridge of Thoughts", and the whole body is made of magic material, which is indestructible.Below the bridge body, there is also a huge mechanical clock dial. Every hour on the hour, it will ring the built-in copper bell by itself, making a resounding sound that resounds through the college.
Two o'clock in the afternoon.
when--
A bell rang suddenly.
On the revolving stairs of the "St. Byron's Great Library" behind the two main buildings, Chen Lun stopped and looked at the clock through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
He noticed that many students who were reading quietly here got up spontaneously, carefully packed up the borrowed books, and hurried away with their canvas bags on their backs.
'Is it time for class...'
Chen Lun secretly guessed, then shook his head and continued walking up.
He just walked around on the first floor and found that there is a huge collection of books here. Regardless of any subject, any basic knowledge can be found in the classified area.
There are also dozens of huge bookshelves for storage even if it is story books for entertainment or even love poetry.It's just that few students are willing to patronize that area.
When you come to the second floor, the first thing that catches your eyes is a spacious hall like the waiting platform of a train station. Not only are there a lot of potted flowers as decorations, but there are also many leather sofas for students to rest and read.
Chen Lun's arrival was inconspicuous, and the readers who were absorbed in the book didn't notice him at all.
'Here should also be the place where ordinary books are stored... Although it is more advanced, it is not considered mysterious knowledge. '
Chen Lun thought to himself.
He didn't stop on the second floor, but continued to go up.
He didn't stop all the way until he reached the fifth floor on the top floor, but he found a front desk like a registration office appeared inside the entrance. The light on the entire fifth floor was relatively dim, and he could only faintly see the outlines of some old bookshelves.
And behind the front desk, sat a middle-aged man with pale skin.
This person has disheveled hair and a pair of thick glasses on the bridge of his nose. He is concentrating on flipping through an ancient book at hand. Through the lenses, he can even see his fanatical and obsessed eyes.
Chen Lun did not interrupt rashly, but stood quietly by the table and waited. He knew that the other party must have sensed his arrival...
["Secret Manager of the Great Library of St. Byron" Galio (Incarnation of the Saint/Magic Sequence Four-Ancient Scholar)]
half an hour.
The administrator slowly closed the book.
There was a little impatience on his face, and after glancing at the gentleman in black hat, he just said:
"The fifth floor is not open to outsiders and ordinary students."
Chen Lun took off his top hat and handed him a palm-sized blue badge in the shape of a kite shield.
"I'm the new professor, Jack Speight."
Galio glanced at the badge, but just grinned.
"A sage of destiny, using his body to become a professor at St. Byron's College? Heh..."
"The desire for knowledge is the nature of human beings. Even if it changes, this will still not disappear, but even worse... The pursuit of knowledge is the obsession of every extraordinary person, isn't it?"
Chen Lun smiled and said slowly.
Galio did not refute, but nodded in agreement.
"You're right, Your Majesty Jack."
He pushed the badge back expressionlessly, pointed to the bookshelf area on the fifth floor, and said indifferently:
"Then may you find joy in knowledge... Also, I advise you not to mess around in St. Byron, I'm not the only one watching here."
"Thank you Galio for your advice, I will abide by the rules."
Chen Lun was not angry either. He knew that this was the attitude and style that the Madman School should have. He put away his badge, put his black hat back on his head, and walked in with a white cane.
Galio then seemed to lose interest in him, without even looking at him, he continued to look down at the ancient book at hand.
Chen Lun had a general perception of the situation on the fifth floor.
It looks spacious here, but in fact the number of books is much lower than downstairs. After all, every book here is a mysterious book related to magic!
Dozens of bookshelves are placed neatly, and the compactly arranged books on them add up to at least tens of thousands...Chen Lun can't help feeling secretly that the foundation of the Madman School is indeed quite deep, even though these books are not very high-level knowledge, But it is also a rare treasure.
For myself, it is even more urgently needed.
After all, the purpose of his coming to the Kingdom of Byron this time is to conduct systematic studies, comprehensively master the basic knowledge of magic, and then gain inspiration from it.
There are actually not many people on the fifth floor. There are only thirty or forty people at this time. Most of them are lecturers and professors of the college, who are older.
These people are all Transcendents of the magic department, most of the lecturers and professors are in the middle sequence, and the students are hovering in the low sequence.
They either stood in front of the bookshelves, or sat on the chairs in the reading area, quietly flipping through the mysterious books at hand, no one spoke, and no one looked around.
Chen Lun liked such an environment and atmosphere very much. He secretly admired it and walked towards a bookshelf.
'Since everything is going well, let's start now without delay...'
he thought.
As a high-ranking person, the way he reads books is naturally different from ordinary people... He raised his ivory white cane and tapped lightly on the spine of a book on the shelf.
The full-level passive [Five Senses], [Multi-tasking] and the mythical creature characteristic "Head of Enlightenment" are launched at the same time.
The majestic text flows into the mind like a river, and it is displayed, beyond the limit of human brain and computing power, to browse, remember and understand it.
Chen Lun closed his eyes, and after just a few seconds, he read through this mysterious book.
[You have read "On the Relationship between Matter and Energy" (progress 100%)]
[Knowledge Collector LV2 (Blessing) is in effect! 】
[Slightly increased mysterious accumulation speed (entries) takes effect! 】
[You have gained 1400 experience points! 】
【Your understanding of magic has gone a step further...】
'very good. '
Chen Lun opened his eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Immediately, he turned his attention to an adjacent book, and the white cane lightly touched the spine of the book again.
Knowledge, like elves returning home, poured into his mind one after another and turned into his nourishment...

It's nine o'clock in the evening.
when--
With the ringing of St. Byron's bell, the students in the library left in twos and threes with a little bit of reluctance. It was not until the gate was finally closing that Chen Lun slowly walked out.
After an afternoon and half a night of reading, he has gained a lot of basic knowledge of magic. He didn't deliberately remember how many books he had read, but there must be two or three hundred books.
To be honest, even ordinary magic saints may not be as efficient as him in learning.
'The experience points gained from reading the book alone add up to nearly 30... This is also a good supplement to the gap needed for upgrading. '
Chen Lun stopped, looked back at St. Byron's Great Library standing silently under the night, and smiled.
In fact, if he could, he would rather stay on the fifth floor all the time, read the secret book there all the time, and absorb the nutrients of knowledge... After all, he can study hard without sleeping, eating or drinking, and the efficiency can be called fear.
It's a pity that St. Byron has strict regulations. The big library opens at all times and closes at all times. Except for the administrator Galio, no one is allowed to stay in the library outside the specified time.
As a high-ranking person, Chen Lun really wanted to fight for it, and he should be able to obtain privileges, but he didn't want to use this to break other people's rules.
Anyway, it was not too late, so he simply took advantage of the time after the library was closed to go back to the apartment to see how the two students were doing.
"I hope these two guys didn't cause any trouble today..."
Holding a white cane, Chen Lun walked slowly towards the apartment with leisurely steps.
After a while.
As soon as he walked in the door, he saw Sunny and Xiaoyu sitting in the living room, seeming to be buried in writing something, while Polaris sat beside him in a daze of boredom.
Seeing him open the door and come back, the two quickly got up to greet him.
"teacher!"
"Hmm... what are you doing?"
Chen Lun nodded and asked curiously.
"Hee hee, I'm helping someone with their homework!"
Sunny Rain said proudly.
Chen Lun frowned.
After some explanations from the other party, he realized that the two of them went to a place called Sapphire restaurant in the college to look for jobs today, and they really found them... It's just that Polaris is a normal candidate for a waiter, and occasionally works part-time in the kitchen Helper, that is, washing dishes.
But Sunny and Xiaoyu had good luck. He met a rich guy in the college.
Chen Lun didn't really care what kind of job they were looking for, as long as they didn't make trouble.
"very good."
He nodded in relief.
"No matter how you say it, you all have done a good job of what I told you."
On a sunny day, Xiaoyu and Polaris looked at each other and smiled.
Both received notifications that the mission was complete.
"Let's rest early, next week I will officially start teaching you magic knowledge..."
As Chen Lun said, he went upstairs without looking back.
The Polaris and the two immediately showed joy, and said behind:
"Thank you, teacher!"

late at night.
The glass door of the Sapphire restaurant was pushed open with a jingle, and a beautiful girl with dark green long hair walked out from inside. She still did not forget to turn her head and say goodbye to the proprietress with a smile:
"I'm going back first, Mrs. Fonseca."
"Alright, be careful on the road, Lucy...By the way, a little brother applied for a job as a waiter today, so you can take a good rest tomorrow."
The fat middle-aged woman was tidying up in the restaurant, she looked up and said.
"That's great, thank you."
Lucy said quickly.
Gently closing the glass door of the dining room, she turned and left.
It's just that the smiling face instantly fell down, even showing fatigue.She walked slowly on the quiet college path, and the snowflakes falling from the night sky fell on her sweater.
Lucy looked at the snow scene with no one around, feeling a little dazed.
It wasn't until she returned to the student living area at the corner of the college and walked into her personal apartment that she pulled her attention back a little.After putting down her backpack and taking a shower, Lucy went into the room naked while wiping her hair.
Sitting alone on the chair, she looked at Ziyue outside the window, and couldn't help but start to miss the man who made her dream. Looking down at the silver ring on her finger, she couldn't help but sighed.
"He probably hasn't read my message once..."
The room fell into dead silence.
It wasn't until Lucy woke up with a cold towel in her hand that she realized that she had forgotten to do something.
"By the way, I haven't read the letter I picked up this morning..."
She quickly put down the towel, opened the drawer, and took out a letter.
This was delivered by the Academic Affairs Center of St. Byron College. It contains the list of private lessons offered by the professor this year. For the "geniuses" recommended here from Omto College in Peacock City, Lucy can choose the tutor to study with. .
Opening the letter, taking out a large-page folded paper, Lucy's beautiful ruby-like eyes scanned the private lesson information of each professor until...
"?!"
A look of disbelief appeared on Lucy's face.
She checked again and again before realizing that she was not dazzled. It was indeed "Professor Jack Speight, private class content: basic principles of magic, animal transfiguration (remarks: special external professor, strongly recommended)".
"Mr. Jack... Could it really be you?!"
Lucy covered her mouth with surprise in her eyes.
