Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Library

Leaving the arcane area, they once again entered a 'path', which was much longer than the previous one, and it took them an hour and a half to reach the next area. On both sides of the 'path' are dwarf houses. The door of the house here is about two meters wide and about two meters wide. Such a wide door makes it very easy to get in and out.

In fact, just now a few of them walked for a while, and found that they couldn't see the end of the road. The three of them had entered a dwarven house at that time. They went in to ask the owner of the house how far the road was.

"Ah, why haven't you yet?" Kalia was already a little out of spirit, but she had to go to Ironforge Castle.

"It's almost there, didn't we ask earlier? It's a little more than an hour to walk. Vane looked at the weak Kaliya and said helplessly.

"I know, but it's too far, and these dwarves don't have anything to do with digging such a big place." Kalia continued to grumble.

"Hey, Kalia. Look at me, I didn't feel tired holding Teddy, and you're tired after only walking for so long? Barka interjected.

"You're so annoying, Barka." Kalia pouted. She was coquettish to Vaane, and as soon as Barka interjected, she couldn't continue.

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong? Barka looked at Vane for some reason.

"She's just complaining." Vane and Kalia have been together for so long, and of course they know what Kalia wants. Therefore, he didn't speak, but reached out and rubbed Kaliya's head. Suddenly, Kalia's little face flushed and became happy.

After a few more moments, the three of them finally came out of the 'path'. In front of him was a huge building, complemented by other small buildings and dwarf houses everywhere.

Arriving at the door of the tall building in the middle of the area, Vane and the three of them looked inside, which looked like a library.

"It's just a library. No fun, let's go to the next area. Barka immediately felt bored when he saw the setting, and proposed.

"No, let's go in and have a look." Vane didn't plan to leave, he wanted to see if there was anything special in the dwarves' collection. Don't forget, in addition to supernatural powers such as magic, the world of Azeroth is now at the level of the European Middle Ages. The other races, while not like humans, are not much better than humans in terms of knowledge.

Quel'Thalas, on the other hand, has much more knowledge than the outside world, and in fact, in terms of social conditions, at least the High Elves have universal education. The productive capacity of society is no worse than in the twenty-first century. This also creates a sense of arrogance that the High Elves give to other races. After all, the other races are just like the ignorant hillbillies in the eyes of the High Elves, and naturally they unconsciously carry a kind of arrogance.

Vane entered the library and found it very large and full of books. It was only when I walked in that I realized that there was only the same book on each row of shelves. In this way, Vane roughly counted, and there were only a hundred or so books.

Shaking his head, Vane thought to himself that his expectations were a little too high. Even if this accident doesn't have hundreds of thousands of books like Quel'Salas, there should be tens of thousands, but I didn't expect that there are only a hundred.

Vane began to go through the books from shelf to shelf, spending about an hour or so browsing through all of them. It's a pity that there is nothing on it that Wayne wants, and the things in these books are some very ordinary common sense knowledge introductions. There is not even a shred of deep real knowledge.

"Wayne, what the hell are you looking for?" Barka asked impatiently. Like all children, Barka didn't like to read. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that if you wanted to become a Ranger and you had to know more than one ring of arcane, Barka might not even have read an arcane book.

"Find a book about all the creatures in Ironforge." Vane replied.

"Is there such a book? How come I haven't heard of it? Barka was stunned, scratching his head and thinking about it carefully.

"I don't know if there is, but I think there should be. After all, it's a book about the local ecology. Vane replied as he turned his head to see behind all the bookshelves, and not far away there was a staircase leading to the second floor.

Vane suddenly understood that what he saw was not everything, no wonder there were only about a hundred kinds of books on the first floor. It can be seen that most of the books are on the second floor. At the very least, there are definitely no less than hundreds of books on forging, plus mining, finding ore veins, architecture, art, etc., Vane quickly calculated in his heart, and these alone can have nearly 10,000 books. So he happily walked in the direction of the stairs leading to the second floor.

"Stop, the upstairs is not open to the public." At the door of the staircase, two guarded warriors blocked Vane in three ways.

"What, why don't you let me go up." Kalia pouted in dissatisfaction.

"The second floor is a confidential area and is not open to the public. Go back. The two guards said without any ambiguity.

Vane was obviously stunned at this time, and suddenly realized. It's easy to understand that in this day and age, all kinds of knowledge are very expensive. This knowledge is also related to the rise and fall of various races, so it is a matter of course that many books are not open to outsiders.

Quel'Salas also has a lot of knowledge that is not open to foreigners, and a lot of advanced knowledge is not even available to civilians. The top-level arcane knowledge is completely in the hands of the royal family and the great nobles. This is true even of Quel'Salas, the most developed country in Azeroth, as far as Vane knows, and even more so of the other races.

Moreover, those local species and ecological environments are probably also prohibited. After all, it is easy to deduce the general situation of the local area through the ecological environment and species. And the map of the local area is also absolutely confidential. Once it is mastered by the enemy, it will definitely cause great trouble. Just like the sewer network of the city, it cannot be known to ordinary people, and if the sewer is mastered by the enemy, then the trouble is not a little bit, and the whole city may fall. Except, of course, in certain countries.

After Vane figured everything out, he could only shake his head and say, "Okay, since it's not open to the public, let's go." ”

"Brother Wayne, aren't you looking for books?" Kalia asked, turning her head.

"No, I think this book probably doesn't exist at all." Vane shook his head.

"Okay then." Kalia nodded.

"Great." Barka jumped up a meter high on the spot: "Let's go." Go to the next area. ”

So saying, he ran out. Vane was immediately happy, and pulled Kalia to leave the library with Barka.
