No one expected that 7 hours later, Ruyue Library would fall into unprecedented chaos.
——After searching for a whole day, but still no progress report on the third book came out, it seems that someone finally lost his temper.
The first explosion that triggered the chaos was from the ceiling of the library - along with a series of "bang bang bang bang bang" sounds and flying sparks, the library was instantly plunged into darkness.
Without even seeing where the attack came from, all the light tubes were destroyed in an instant.
"Boy from the East Building!" As if it had just darkened, the sound like fingernails scraping against the blackboard suddenly amplified countless times, shaking the ceiling in the darkness and making a faint buzzing sound.
"I know you have at least one target book in your hand, take it out now!" This harsh voice seems to be alive, drilling from the ears all the way into the brain, making people want to hold their heads and roll on the floor.
.
I don't know whether it was because of the sudden darkness or because of this roar, the library immediately fell silent for a second or two. However, what was surprising was that the person who spoke next was not Sibaan.
The woman in the south hall spoke leisurely with her cool voice.
"Blonde brother, now that the matter is over, you might as well open the skylight and speak frankly." The woman in the south hall sneered, "I'm a little stupider than you, and it took me so long to realize it. What do you guys want?
The skinless man in the central hall has joined forces a long time ago, right? He sang and sang, but he thought we were all fools - the target book is in the non-book area, and I am afraid that you deliberately released it after the first team found a book.
News?"
There was silence in the library, and then Sibaan spoke up.
He didn't raise his voice intentionally like the people in the other two halls - but for some reason, this soft and melodious whisper could still be heard, and even the ambiguous breath between his lips and teeth was as clear as a lover's whisper.
Clearly: "...Miss Nanguan, what do you mean by that?"
His voice was like a goose feather gently scratching his neck. Even the woman in the South Hall seemed to have to slow down after hearing this before she could continue without blushing and heartbeat: "——I said, you guys have just let it go.
It's planned! There is only a small table and chair area in each branch library, but the place connecting the two branches is a large reading area... You and the central hall co-acted a play, each of you
After I got the book, I just wanted to make us kill each other!"
Before she finished speaking, the West Hall couldn't wait to speak: "...Boy, there should be a target book in the reading area between you and me. But just now, the few of us have done enough
After getting ready, I went to search, but found that there was nothing there...neither books nor your people!"
Sibaan said "Huh" and seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, he suddenly asked: "Where are your friends from the North Hall? Don't you want to say something?"
"Looking for books takes too much effort," Top Hat smiled lowly and said coolly, "We have our own way of leaving the library. You can just fight for the five target books."
He actually looked like he was staying out of it.
But the central hall was quiet and there was no sound at all - the skinless man and a young man and woman seemed to have suddenly become deaf and mute, and after listening for such a long time, there was no response at all.
Sibaan suddenly frowned slightly in the darkness.
The woman beside him, Taozi, had been paying close attention to him. When she saw this, she immediately lowered her voice: "...What's wrong? Is it difficult to handle?"
Although she said that, there was no trace of worry in her tone. Instead, she was filled with Sbaan's blind confidence: "Just tell me what to do next, and I'll do it right away."
"It's okay, don't worry." Siba'an turned around and comforted her softly. As soon as Taozi met his eyes, she couldn't help lowering her head immediately. "...I just think the central hall is strangely quiet. Several other teams
, I haven’t taken it to heart yet.”
The situation now is obvious: the South Hall and the West Hall have quietly formed an alliance at some point or through what means.
"But with the North Pavilion involved, I don't think the South Pavilion can do anything." Siba'an said softly, and his dark green eyes like a deep pool in the forest narrowed slightly: "I'm not afraid of the West Pavilion.
,On the contrary, the central government——"
Before he could finish his sentence, a sudden change occurred.
Accompanied by a whistle, several black figures flashed out from the railings on the second floor of the South Building and the North Building at the same time, leaping out like flies; almost at the same moment they appeared, there was a dull "Progress" sound.
"The third book has been found" also reached my ears; the footsteps sounded from the West Building, and almost instantly they rushed across the reading area between the two buildings and went straight to the East Building.
"What's going on?" Taozi was really frightened now, and grabbed Sibaan's sleeve in confusion: "Whoever found the book came to attack us... eh?"
She suddenly realized something was wrong and immediately couldn't understand.
The figure that jumped out from the North Building fell straight down from the second floor. It turned out that it was heading for the central hall. The two people who came out from the South Building quickly blocked the exit of the East Building where Sibaan was located -
—that is, the stairs leading to the central hall.
The situation should obviously be critical, but Taozi felt that Sibaan beside her suddenly let out a sigh of relief, as if he was relieved - why he was relieved, she didn't understand, and she didn't think about it.
You know, he just asked with a trembling voice: "I, what should we... do now?"
"It's okay," Siba'an seemed to be full of pity for her uneasiness, and touched her hair: "Didn't I tell you what to do? Take action now."
Taozi nodded vigorously, turned around and ran away.
As soon as she left, a few bookshelves at the edge of the East Building suddenly heard a "bang" and were hit first; I don't know who had such terrifying strength - several tall and heavy bookshelves were actually like
It was blown away like a handful of water drops, and with the faint shaking of the ground, the bookshelves were pushed down one by one: it seemed that once the people in the West Library determined that the target book was not on the bookshelf, they no longer paid attention to these annoying things.
No more worries.
In stark contrast, there were people from the North Library who once again sneaked into the bookshelf area of the central hall.
"Be careful, don't touch the book!" Top Hat spat fiercely, "Have you found them?"
This time he came prepared.
Almost everyone is holding a book in their hands for reconnaissance of the enemy, breaking down barriers and conducting range surveillance. As long as Lin Sanjiu and his party are still in the central hall, they will definitely be captured by the effect of the book——
However, after completely turning the bookshelf area upside down, Top Hat was stunned.
