[Do you agree to the transaction with the ‘Librarian’? 】
Lin Xun sneered and pressed 'no' without hesitation.
Are you kidding? The highest reward is what he deserves after passing the test. Why should he use other conditions in exchange?
It's like participating in a competitive competition and winning first place, but the organizer refuses to give the corresponding prizes and has to make you pay an additional fee before awarding the prize.
The reason why the organizer refused to award the award turned out to be that the contestants had gained additional technical improvements during the competitive competition, which is simply ridiculous!
[The ‘librarian’’s face gradually darkened when he saw your decisive refusal. 】
[He put away the bookmark that exuded colorful light, then took out an ordinary bookmark, and said bluntly, since you are unwilling to hand over the extra profit from the illusion, then this is the only reward for your test. ]
[The ‘Librarian’ holds an ordinary ‘Invasion Bookmark’ in his hand. Such a reward certainly does not meet the difficulty of the test. 】
【Do you want to accept this reward?】
"Threatening me with a reward, right?"
Lin Xun understood that if he wanted to get the administrator to hand over the rewards obediently, he must have the right to speak.
Otherwise, how can the players arm-wrestle with the organizers?
Without the right to speak, even if you are treated unfairly, you can only have your teeth knocked out and your blood swallowed.
I have to change from a player to a being who can even talk to the organizer calmly, so that I can get the rewards I deserve.
In the underworld game, what can have more say than a display of force?
With a sharp look in his eyes, he was about to give the attack order to the Valkyrie.
With the strength shown by this librarian, of course he would not be killed instantly with one blow.
Only by showing enough strength can people understand that Lin Xun is not a soft persimmon, and not everyone can handle him.
Just as he was about to issue an attack order, Lin Xun suddenly thought of something and immediately stopped.
He did not click to attack, but pressed the 'Yes' option to [Do you want to accept this reward?].
[Under the disbelieving gaze of the ‘Librarian’, you accept the ‘Invasion Bookmark’ as your assessment reward. 】
[You have obtained the ‘Invasion Bookmark’ (prop)! 】
[You took a deep look at the 'librarian' and turned around to leave the 'lecture hall'...]
[The ‘librarian’ opened his mouth wide with shock on his face. He seemed to want to stop you, but you left the lecture hall without looking back. 】
【Where are you going now?】
[You did not continue to go deeper into the temple, but returned towards the ‘five-story pagoda’. 】
[You stride forward, enter the tower, and run straight from the first floor to the fifth floor...]
【……】
[The fifth floor of the pagoda is empty, and there are no books placed there. There is only one 'resting page' floating in the air, emitting a glimmer of light. 】
[You step forward and touch the ‘rest page’, and the powerful wandering soul resonates with the page...]
【Which function of ‘Relax Book Page’ do you want to use? 】
[1. Set up a resurrection point:...]
【2. Take a nap and recuperate:...】
【3.Teleport:......】
【4.Oath:......】
【5.……】
Lin Xun pressed the third option to teleport.
【Please select the destination you want to send to.】
【1.'Fukang City' unmanned port】
【2.‘Longze Temple’ guest house】
【3.‘Library’】
Lin Xun was about to press the third option again, and the game text suddenly appeared.
[The sound of hurried footsteps "ding ding ding" came from the wooden stairs behind you, and soon the "librarian" appeared behind you panting. 】
[He saw you touching the ‘rest book page’ and using the teleport function. Thinking that you had just accepted a low-level reward that was obviously not in line with the test results, he couldn’t help but panic. 】
[He immediately ran to you and asked where you were going.]
[You raise your eyelids and reply coldly: No comment!]
[After saying that, you are about to activate the transfer function. The 'librarian' quickly stops you. Before changing his attitude, he carefully asks you if you want to return to the library? 】
[You sneer and say bluntly, not only do you want to return to the library, but you also want to give the highest reward of the test, the ‘Invasion Bookmark’, to his body. 】
[As soon as these words were spoken, the administrator in front of him broke out in cold sweat from his forehead.]
The reason why the librarian always wanted to erase Lin Xun's extra profit was because it was the administrator's dereliction of duty to allow the apostle extra profit during the test.
This clone did not hesitate to use various threats to make Lin Xun give up the extra profit, which undoubtedly shows that for the administrator clone, the punishment for dereliction of duty may be unbearable.
The intensity of the punishment made the administrator's clone very afraid, so he used a series of methods to eliminate Lin Xun's extra profits and avoid the implementation of the punishment.
Lin Xun didn't know who was supervising whether these clones were competent, but from the clues in the apostle forum, he could deduce that it was probably the main body of the administrator in the library.
Moreover, the only person the apostle can come into contact with at any time is the administrator.
Allowing the apostles to make extra profits in the illusion is already a dereliction of duty, and giving the apostles rewards that do not meet the test is even more dereliction of duty. The combination of the two can even rise to the level of dereliction of duty.
Now that Lin Xun has the physical evidence of the 'invasion bookmark', as long as he exposes the clone's malfeasance, he believes that the clone will shed its skin even if it doesn't die.
"Are you the only one who can threaten others? Now let me show you what it means to do the same thing in return."
[The 'Librarian''s face turned blue and white for a long time, and then he sighed unwillingly: Apostle, you win...]
[He took out the colorful ‘Easter Egg Bookmark’ and thrust it into your hand without any explanation. 】
[You have obtained the ‘Easter Egg Bookmark’ (prop)! 】
[He stretches out his hand, gesturing for you to return the ‘invasion bookmark’ to him. 】
[Do you want to return the ‘Invasion Bookmark’? 】
"If I let you off so easily, how can I be worthy of your arrogant attitude just now?"
Lin Xun pressed 'no' without hesitation.
[You shake your head slowly, indicating that an ‘Easter egg bookmark’ is not enough.]
[The 'Librarian''s face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, Apostle, don't push yourself too far!]
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Is this your attitude when asking for help?"
"If I don't peel off your skin today, how can I still hang out in the world in the future?"
[You step forward and touch the ‘rest page’ again...]
[The ‘librarian’ is so angry that he wants to tear you apart, but he has to humble himself again. 】
[A flattering smile appeared on his old face, he hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth and took out a bookmark again.]
[The 'Librarian' has completely lost his arrogance. He holds out the bookmark with both hands and only asks you to return the 'Invasion Bookmark'. 】
[You have obtained the ‘Holy Bookmark’ (prop)! 】
[Do you want to return the ‘Invasion Bookmark’? 】
[You took the bookmark and shook your head again to indicate that it was not enough.]
[The 'librarian' yelled angrily, pointing at you and trembling with anger...]
[As soon as you touch the ‘rest page’, the cursing stops abruptly. 】
[The 'Librarian' suppresses his anger and explains to you that it is reasonable to get the 'Easter Egg Bookmark' based on your test results, and getting another 'Holy Artifact Bookmark' is already an excessive reward. 】
[If he gives you other rewards, you don’t need to go back to the library to report it. His body will find out that there is something fishy in it. 】
[An ‘Easter Egg Bookmark’ plus a ‘Holy Artifact Bookmark’ is already the biggest compromise and concession within his authority. 】
"It seems that there is no other oil and water that can be squeezed out..."
It is already extraordinary to obtain another ‘Holy Relic Bookmark’. You must know that the last time you obtained the ‘Sacred Relic Bookmark’, you got it only after completing the test of an administrator’s clone.
Now it is equivalent to getting double rewards in one test.
[You take out the ‘Invasion Bookmark’ and return it to the ‘Librarian’. 】
[He took the bookmark, and instead of turning his face and cursing you again as you imagined, he let out a long sigh and looked very tired.]
[He silently recited a lengthy incantation and prepared to leave...]
Lin Xun rolled his eyes.
The invasion bookmark was returned and the assessment reward was given, but the administrator seemed to have forgotten something.
[You stopped the administrator and interrupted his spell casting.]
[The ‘Librarian’’s eyes widened angrily, and he was about to get angry, but you raised your finger and pointed at the monocle on his face. 】
[He fell silent for a long time, then took off his monocle and threw it to you.]
[You have obtained the ‘Librarian’s Monocle’ (a rare item)! 】
[You accepted the monocle, but still did not let the administrator leave. 】
[Under his helpless eyes, you slowly told him that although the ‘Invasion Bookmark’ had been returned to him, it offset his second dereliction of duty.]
[But don’t forget, the extra profit you made in the illusion is also the dereliction of duty of the ‘librarian’. If he leaves like this, he will inevitably be punished. 】
[You smile slightly and ask the administrator if you want to escape punishment? 】
[He blurted out, of course he does!]
[After saying this, the librarian looked at you suspiciously, thinking that you were going to use this as a threat to blackmail him again.]
[But you shook your head and said that according to what he said before, there are other places in this chapter where you can learn the specific location of the ‘Gyeonggi River Mountain’. 】
[You can ask him to erase the information you have learned, thereby eliminating the dereliction of duty penalty. 】
[But he must tell you where the clues hiding places like ‘Gyeonggi Daejiang Mountain’ are and how to get the clues. 】
Knowing the specific location in the game is equivalent to opening the driving map of a new map.
If you don’t know the specific location, you can only wander around with your head covered, praying for luck to wander to that location by chance.
For example, in the "Xia Mara's Astrology Tower" in the previous chapter, although Lin Xun did not obtain the driving map, he relied on his excellent character to encounter this hidden map in the fog.
But if there is no specific driving map for a place like 'Hermit Canyon', you may not be able to encounter it even if you spend a lifetime exploring it.
Asking the librarian to tell him where the 'driving map' is is not considered a physical reward. It can help the librarian eliminate the punishment and Lin Xun can also benefit from it. It is equivalent to a win-win situation.
That's right, instead of going directly to the 'Gyeonggi Daejiang Mountain', taking one more step and looking for the 'driving map' first will bring greater benefits to Lin Xun!
Today, I don’t know how many years have passed since the war between the gods of ‘Chaos Source Dragon’ and ‘Cang Gu Tianyan’ ended.
What is extracted from the long river of time in the illusion is just the phantom of the monster. It cannot change the timeline. What all historical development should be like is what it is like now.
According to the character of 'Shuten Doji', who never retreats from a fight to the death, the Shuten clan may have been extinct in the war between gods.
Even if 'Shuten Doji' really hid his clan members in 'Gyeonggi Daegangshan', now that times have changed, if he goes to that place again, he is likely to encounter a scene of empty buildings.
And the location where the "Gyeonggi Dajiangshan Driving Map" is hidden may contain other clues, and there may even be "Driving Maps of Lairs" of other monster races, such as the "Nine-tailed Fox" and the "Big Tengu"...
One more step will give you more possibilities, why not?
[The 'librarian' was startled when he heard this, and couldn't figure out why the two of them were at war with each other just now, and you, who was as greedy as a devil just now, would suddenly be so kind to help him. ]
[You spread your hands to show whether you believe it or not. Anyway, it’s not you who is being punished.]
[The 'librarian' frowned and thought, and then spoke after a long time. He can't tell you where the location is, nor can he tell you how to get clues. ]
[But he can tell you a history of this world.]
[Before you agree, the administrator will explain...]
[‘Canggu Tianyan’’s victory in the war between gods also represents the human side’s victory over the monster clan. 】
[Therefore, most of the books recording information about the youkai clan were destroyed in the war and are rarely left in the world. 】
[But the books about the history of the war between gods were treasured by the victors and have been handed down to this day, and there are many ancient books that contain some shocking secrets.]
[Today, these historical books are preserved in the Imperial Palace in Sakurakyoto.]
[As an apostle of the ‘Chaos Source Dragon’ sworn camp, you might as well go there to learn history. 】
[Ordinary people read history to be wise, and knowing the past can draw lessons from the present... I believe you will definitely learn a lot of "useful" history. 】
Lin Xun's eyes lit up.
"Good guy, I said I couldn't reveal it, but in fact I almost sold my underwear!"
[The 'Librarian' stopped here when he said this. He looked at you and motioned you to relax your body and mind, just like when you entered the illusion, and don't resist. 】
Lin Xun knew that this was the specific location where the administrator wanted to erase the "Gyeonggi Dajiangshan" he had learned about.
After the administrator erased it, he could not go directly to the 'Gyeonggi Daegang Mountain', which was equivalent to losing the driving map. Apart from knowing the place name, there were no other useful clues.
Just like even if he knew the place name of 'Wuzhi Shrine', Lin Xun still had to search hard and get the specific location before he could go there.
【A great spiritual power is coming towards you, do you want to resist?】
Lin Xun was not afraid of his falling out. Unless the apostle took the initiative to attack the administrator, he could not fight back.
This is the experience gained by many apostles in the apostle forum in exchange for soul strength.
Although few people can kill the 'librarian', there are still many apostles who are mean-spirited. This may be the nature of the fourth natural disaster...
[Relax your body and mind and let this spiritual power wash through your body...]
[After a while, the ‘librarian’ took back his mental power. 】
[He looked at you deeply, as if he wanted to remember your appearance, then silently recited a spell and disappeared. 】
[An old voice echoed from the top of the tower...]
[Smart apostle, I look forward to meeting you in the next chapter, if you and him are lucky enough...]
Lin Xun opened the panel and inventory and found that everything was as usual, and the administrator had not done anything.
He grinned: "What's this? You're still looking forward to meeting me... Could this administrator's clone be a fake?"
