11 p.m., Zhejiang Hunter University Infirmary.
Lu Benwei had already woken up. The nurse told him that the reason he collapsed was because he had worked too hard, which led to physical exhaustion. He would be fine after he had gotten more rest.
The freshmen petition ended with Lu Benwei’s forfeit.
First place: Chu Yan.
Second place: Lu Benwei.
This result was obviously not what Lu Benwei wanted. He had an agreement with Chen Yuan. If he won first place, the school would make an exception and give him access to the top-secret area of the library.
However, an accident happened.
“F*ck!”
He punched the wall so hard that even the ceiling lamp shook a little. He did not get first place in the freshmen tournament so naturally, the school would not allow him to obtain top-secret access.
“Wait! I have One-Click Speed Support!
Lu Benwei was overjoyed. He remembered that the system had once said that One-Click Speed Support could also pass through walls!
There was no way out in the mountains and rivers, but there was a ray of hope in the dark.
Lu Benwei did not say anything and immediately jumped out of the bed.
It was 11:30 p.m.!
Lu Benwei hid in the bushes in front of the library building and activated One-Click Speed Support.
The library of Zhejiang Hunter University was closed at 10 p.m. There was no one there.
“Should I just walk in?” Lu Benwei muttered as he faced a wall.
The system had never lied to him. However, it was a little awkward for him to walk through the wall. What if he got stuck inside?
Lu Benwei’s thoughts were quickly extinguished. This idea was too absurd.
12 a.m.
The librarian whistled, pulled down the door of the library, and locked it. After doing all this, he even chanted a spell, then whistled and went home.
Lu Benwei appeared, facing a wall, took a deep breath, and braced himself to hit it.
Then, something unexpected happened. Lu Benwei felt like the wall had turned into water. It was cold and a little fortable.
Lu Benwei sneaked into the library. The library’s top-secret area was on the first underground floor.
If one wanted to enter, other than using the elevator to scan for permission, one could only enter through the fire escape. However, the fire escape was closed all year round, and the conditions to open it were very strict.
Lu Benwei effortlessly used Through the Wall to enter the fire escape. He was dressed in black, and on his head was a silk stocking he had bought from the store in the female dormitory area. His entire body was wrapped up tightly, leaving only his eyes and nose exposed.
After entering the top-secret area, Lu Benwei faced a new problem.
What was in front of him was just the tip of the iceberg. The millions of books and skill scrolls in the nine-story library on the ground were just a needle in the haystack.
The number of books in the top-secret area was as large as the number of stars in the sky.
In the center of the top-secret area, a secret silver globe was releasing gravity magic. Lu Benwei could swim in the “ocean of knowledge” with just a slight movement.
Lu Benwei first went to the “hunter talent” area.
He planned to start with the “hunter talent”, and then continue to look through the “mysterious past”, “travel notes”, and “biography” sections.
The idea was good, but the reality was cruel.
Lu Benwei searched the books in these areas but could not find any information about the fire of hell.
“How long will it take to find what I want?”
Then, Lu Benwei hid.
He saw a person in front of him. Just like his outfit, that person was wrapped in black clothes and had a black silk stocking on his head.
“A thief?”
“What? Where’s the thief?”
The voices of a man and a woman rang out one after another.
“Chu Yan?”
Lu Benwei was surprised to find that the person in front of him was Chu Yan.
“No, you’ve got the wrong person, annoying fellow,” Chu Yan retorted.
With that, Chu Yan turned around and left.
Lu Benwei rolled his eyes at Chu Yan and grabbed her pigtails. “e on, who else would call me annoying fellow other than you?”
“By the way, why did you sneak in?” Lu Benwei asked again.
Chu Yan placed her hands on her hips and said arrogantly, “Who sneaked in? I came in fair and square, alright?”
Lu Benwei put on a look of disbelief, his eyes sizing up Chu Yan from head to toe.
Only then did Chu Yan remember what she was wearing, and her face turned red.
Then, she puffed up her chest. “Didn’t you sneak in too? You still have the nerve to ask?”
Before she could finish, Lu Benwei covered her mouth.
“Shh! Don’t say anything!”
The entire place instantly fell silent.
After a while, a deep voice came from the direction of the elevator.
“Adacadabra, open sesame!”
“Beep! Password correct, identity verification successful!” The mechanical voice of a girl sounded. “Wele, Principal Chen Yuan!”
“Pfft!”
Chu Yan could not hold it in anymore. “The principal is so cute!”
Lu Benwei’s face turned red with anxiety. “Shush, be quiet. If we’re discovered, we won’t have a good ending.”
Chu Yan subconsciously covered her mouth.
“e, let’s hide there.” Lu Benwei suggested as he pointed behind Chu Yan.
Chu Yan nodded, but when she turned around, she hit an iron pillar.
The crisp sound reverberated throughout the entire top-secret area.
Chu Yan was in so much pain that she wanted to cry, and Lu Benwei was trying hard to hold back his laughter.
This girl can hit a wall!
“Who, who’s there?” Chen Yuan noticed the situation.
The light from the flashlight swept across, and Chen Yuan slowly walked over.
Although Lu Benwei and Chu Yan managed to hide in time, they were only a bookcase away from Chen Yuan. As long as Chen Yuan calmed down, he could feel their intense heartbeats.
Chen Yuan used the flashlight to scan the area.
The light beam shot through the gaps between the books, and Lu Benwei’s forehead began to sweat.
Chu Yan, on the other hand, was calm. From time to time, she reached into Lu Benwei’s clothes and scratched his itchy flesh.
Lu Benwei’s lips were almost torn from biting himself, and the tormenting little demon laughed silently.
In the end, Chen Yuan left.
Lu Benwei let out a sigh of relief as he heard Chen Yuan’s receding footsteps.
“Close sesame, Namo Amitabha!”
“Beep! Identity verification successful!” The artificial intelligence in the elevator sounded. “Principal Chen Yuan, you’re wele to e again next time.”
“The next time, I hope you can do some rat-killing work.”
Chen Yuan’s voice seemed to point to something.
Lu Benwei came out with a solemn expression. ‘It’s obvious that the principal already knows of my existence. But why didn’t he expose me?’
“Tsk! Annoying fellow, e and take a look!” Chu Yan shouted.
Lu Benwei followed them and found that there was a book left where they were.
The title of the book was the Kingdom of Giants!
