Escape From the Library

Now that it is inferred that there may be a hidden mezzanine in the library, the next focus is how to get to this hidden "0 floor".

Qin Lu's "plate shift" skill has been used up, and if she wants to use it again, she has to wait 24 hours. Even if Xin Yan uses the catalyst to speed up, she still has to wait 12 hours.

Yue Xingwen's "Golden Cicada Escape Shell" can teleport with a group of teammates, but this skill cannot specify a precise angle and cannot directly reach the corresponding coordinate position.

Other people's skills can't ignore architectural obstacles, so if they want to enter the so-called "mezzanine", they still have to find the entrance of the mezzanine.

Zhang Xiaonian speculated: "The database on the -1st floor is more than 5 meters high, and the mezzanine is probably hidden inside the database. The database is surrounded by solid wood bookshelves filled with books. Could it be? One of the books is the mechanism to open the mezzanine?"

Ke Shaobin excitedly said: "I think so too! There are countless books in the database, and when we usually go to the database to upgrade skill books, we don't read all the books carefully. The students found out."

Yue Xingwen shook his head, and said, "The database we usually see is definitely different from the current one."

Jiang Pingce said in agreement: "That's right, the entire building of the library is now in an exam state, and when we usually go to the database to upgrade our skills, we are in a non-examination state."

Yue Xingwen continued: "In the usual database, everyone has an independent space and does not interfere with each other. We have never been to the database in the exam state."

Ke Shaobin thought about it carefully, and what Xingwen and Pingce said was indeed reasonable. Usually, after the exam, everyone took the points to the database to upgrade their skills. Whenever they took the elevator to the -1 floor, they would be taken by the library. The system is automatically separated, and each enters its own data room.

But now, the library is in an exam state, and the elevator shaft is completely blown up.The database on the -1 floor at this time must be different from what they usually see.

Ke Shaobin said earnestly: "That's right, the current reference room on the -1st floor may also have a back-shaped structure, with four corridors!"

Yue Xingwen glanced at his teammates, and said: "Everyone, be careful later. Let's go to the 1st floor first, go down the stairs to the -1st floor, and see if there is a mezzanine at the location of the stairs."

At this time, everyone was on the 10th floor, and Yue Xingwen turned on the "Flying Fast" team acceleration again, and everyone quickly climbed down the stairs, and arrived at the 1st floor in a blink of an eye.

Everyone tapped in the stairwell for a while, but they didn't find the existence of the mezzanine, so they had to continue to the -1 floor.

In the process of going down, Zhang Xiaonian used a laser range finder to measure the height of the stairs while reporting: "The total height of the stairs from the 1st floor to the -1st floor is 54 meters, which is the same as the database we usually see. Same height."

Jiang Pingce said: "At this height, it is indeed possible to build another floor." He raised his head and took a closer look at the surrounding walls. The walls in the stairwell are all smooth cement walls, painted with white paint, consistent with other floors. Jiang Pingce said: "Xiao Nian, try to see if you can dig it out."

Zhang Xiaonian summoned the excavator and tried it in the middle of the 54-meter-high wall. As a result, the bucket of the excavator was directly broken by the wall.

Zhang Xiaonian said helplessly: "The building of the library building is very strong and cannot be destroyed by violence."

It can't be violently destroyed, and it can't be directly displaced. It seems that we can only go to the database on the 01st floor to see if there is any mechanism.Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce looked at each other, and walked side by side towards the door on the -1 floor.

Like other floors, there are four doors in the east, west, south, and north directions on the -1 floor.Which door should I enter?Everyone had no idea, Yue Xingwen didn't want to waste time guessing here, so he randomly pointed to the north gate and said, "Enter this gate, everyone be careful."

Yue Xingwen took the initiative to take the lead, Jiang Pingce walked side by side with him, and the others followed closely behind them. Twelve people quickly passed through this door and entered the database on the -12 floor.However, the picture in front of them made everyone freeze in place——

database!

This is a real library repository!

I saw row after row of solid wood bookshelves reaching to the top and over 5 meters neatly arranged in the spacious corridor. Labels were posted next to each row of bookshelves, such as social science, western philosophy, law, economics, etc. Learn and so on.

There are countless books on the bookshelf, densely packed, like a sea of ​​books.

Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce looked at each other and looked at each other.

After a while, Yue Xingwen said: "This should be a collection of books from all major majors in the entire library, right? The length of the corridor is about 50 meters by visual inspection. This floor is probably composed of four corridors?"

Jiang Pingce said, "Go and have a look."

Everyone quickly ran to the end of the corridor, and it turned out to be a familiar 90-degree corner, followed by another very similar corridor. They continued to run forward, and after passing two corners in a row, they returned to the original point.

Like other floors, the -1 floor is also in the shape of "Hui".

Ke Shaobin looked around suspiciously: "The bookshelves here are all directly reaching the roof, and you don't see the mezzanine? If there is a mechanism, how can I find the mechanism if there are so many books?"

Zhang Xiaonian also scratched his head in confusion: "I just measured, the length of the corridor is 50 meters, the area of ​​the four corridors is exactly the same as that of other floors, and the corridors are full of bookshelves, the mezzanine can't be in the air, right?"

Just when everyone was wondering, suddenly, a familiar mechanical female voice sounded in their ears: "Welcome to the examination room in the library reference room. Next, it will be your graduation assessment time."

This voice obviously came from the skill instructor I met in the control center just now.

Ke Shaobin hurriedly asked: "Graduation assessment? Will we be allowed to graduate if we pass?"

Skills instructor: "No. You can only get a diploma after passing the graduation assessment. If you want to graduate smoothly, you have to participate in the graduation defense and get a degree certificate."

Everyone: "..."

This library system is really perverted. Entrance exams are required, and graduation exams are required?

Yue Xingwen frowned and asked, "What are the exam rules? Do you answer the questions like the original entrance exam?" He remembered the entrance exam at that time, he took a paper, and the test was all idioms.

The skill instructor said: "The exam begins."

As soon as the words fell, the bookshelf in front of them suddenly collapsed, and densely packed books smashed towards them like bricks!

Yue Xingwen hurriedly opened the dictionary: "The golden cicada escapes its shell!"

He took his teammates to teleport to the other side of the bookshelf, narrowly avoiding the falling books and avoiding the tragedy of being submerged by a large number of books.

However, before he could stand on his feet, the bookshelf in front began to tilt again——

Ke Shaobin's face changed: "Oops! The domino effect, the bookshelves in the four corridors will all collapse soon!"

Jiang Pingce said decisively: "Xiao Nian, build a wall!"

Zhang Xiaonian immediately raised his right hand, and in an instant, reinforced concrete shockproof walls more than 5 meters high rose up around the 12 people, blocking the collapsed bookshelves abruptly!

Everyone stayed within the protection range of the shockproof wall, only to hear the loud noises of "boom" and "crash" coming from their ears. The domino effect caused the bookshelves to collapse one after another, and all the books fell. For a while, books as thick as bricks Flying around, the entire database is in a mess.

Liu Zhaoqing said with a wry smile: "This time, we are really 'traveling in the sea of ​​books'."

Xu Yishen was helpless: "There are books everywhere here. Once Xiaonian's protective wall is removed, we will be submerged in an instant, right? So, the graduation exam of the database is for us to fight against tens of thousands of books?"

Liu Zhaoqing said: "Why don't you ask me to dissect a corpse like the entrance exam."

After 3 minutes of earth-shattering collapse outside, it gradually quieted down. It seemed that all the bookshelves had collapsed. Yue Xingwen took a deep breath and said, "Hiding is not an option, go out and have a look."

Jiang Pingce said, "I'll go up first."

He raised his right hand, quickly drew a coordinate system, used the formula to control himself to rise, reached a height of 5 meters, and looked out——

Finding the strange expression on Jiang Pingce's face, Yue Xingwen hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Pingce looked down at Xingwen, and wrote another formula to make Yue Xingwen fly up and hover beside him.Yue Xingwen looked out following Jiang Pingce's gaze, and his scalp felt numb.

Seeing the ugly faces of the two, Ke Shaobin was nervous and curious, and hurriedly asked, "Xingwen, Ping Ce, what's going on outside?"

Yue Xingwen said: "It's the book spirit."

Everyone was very puzzled: "Shu Ling?"

Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce looked at each other, and said with a wry smile: "After these bookshelves collapsed, all the books seemed to lose their shackles, and a lot of book spirits came out of the books. For example, the monsters in "Journey to the West", "Liaozhaizhi" The female ghosts in "Different"."

Everyone: "…………"

What kind of terrible scene is this?All the characters described in the book have become spirit bodies. The positive characters are easy to deal with, but what about the villains?

Liu Zhaoqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "So, are we going to fight against thousands of book spirits?"

Jiang Pingce said: "Look at the floating frame."

Everyone looked up, and sure enough, they found a familiar floating box in the upper right corner, and inside it was a line of prompts - [Escape from the library graduation exam, countdown 01:00:00].

After an hour, he escaped from the reference room.

Xu Yi sighed deeply: "There are so many book spirits, how can the 12 of us beat them?"

Jiang Pingce and Yue Xingwen looked at each other, and the latter seemed to have thought of something, and whispered a few words in Jiang Pingce's ear.

The next moment, Jiang Pingce simply nodded, looked back at everyone and said, "Xingwen thought of a way to deal with Shuling, let's try it first. Everyone stay here and wait for our news."

Jiang Pingce gently grasped Yue Xingwen's arm with his left hand, and quickly wrote down a formula with his right hand. In a blink of an eye, the two jumped out from the top of Zhang Xiaonian's wall and disappeared in front of everyone.
