Chapter Thirty-Eight: Thirsty for Knowledge
Two days have passed.
After the shadow of the god of war comes to a rather 'dramatic' end.
The lush and beautiful paradise island seems to have returned to its former tranquility.
Early in the morning of the third day, as the sun began to shine from the sky, the east gate of the Amazon palace began to change the guard as usual.
Due to Ares' raid, although the matter has ended, the Amazons have still strengthened the vigilance on the island, especially the gate guards of the royal palace, which have basically been replaced by the most elite warriors in the tribe.
One of the Amazonian warriors at the changing of the guard yawned, took the spear from her friend's hand, and was about to say something to the other, but out of the corner of her eye, she seemed to catch a figure walking out of the palace.
Her throat rolled, and she stopped her speech, then took her place with her spear in her place.
The dark-skinned Amazon warrior who had been replaced seemed to sense something, and glanced curiously in the direction of the door.
I saw a person who was a little out of place on the paradise island coming up.
A man.
"Good morning, a few people."
Chen Sheng walked out quickly, and he had already come to the edge of the East Gate.
"Hello, Lord Godslayer."
There are a total of four Amazon warriors in the east gate of the palace, plus the people who are changing the guard one after another at this moment, and there are currently six Amazon warriors wearing skirts and armor gathered at the door.
Several people did not squint, and responded to Chen Sheng very politely.
These soldiers were already familiar with it, and knew that this Lord God Slayer was arranged to live in the lower side hall of the palace.
However, although it is only a lower hall, it is unprecedented for a man to live in the Amazon palace.
If it weren't for Chen Sheng's epic feats and feats beyond the legend of defeating Ares, he would not have been able to get this kind of treatment as a man anyway.
Chen Sheng's footsteps didn't delay much, he smiled and nodded, and then left these ordinary Amazon warriors behind him and walked through the gate.
“........”
Several of the warriors looked at each other, but quickly returned to a state of expressionlessness.
The Amazon Royal Palace is a pyramidal palace complex built on the low mountains of the island.
Like the center of a paradise island, there is a small mountain with a golden splendor.
Because the Amazon is a theocratic people who worship the gods, the Amazon royal palace is built and imitated according to the idea of the mythical Olympus, of course, compared with the real Olympus, the Amazon royal palace is still incomparable.
There are a total of six access portals in the Amazon royal palace, distributed in six different directions at the foot of the palace complex, because its buildings are all ancient Greek style, although the building is gorgeous and atmospheric, but basically except for the queen and princess bedrooms, the other places are only smooth portals, but there is no gate that can actually be closed.
Soon after Chen Sheng left from the East Gate, Princess Diana, wearing a pale gold dress, also appeared near the East Gate, and then left the palace.
Northeast side of Paradise Island.
After walking in this direction for about half an hour, Chen Sheng's eyes suddenly opened up and he came to a plain with a wide field of vision.
Not far ahead, there is a huge boxy building, not as ostentatious as the royal palace, but also the size of a supermarket.
The entire building is made of stone, arched by low steps, and the dome is triangular in shape, which at first glance looks a bit like an ancient Greek temple, but Chen Sheng knows that this is the Amazon's collection library.
He stood there for two seconds, then walked towards the library and soon came to him.
"Lord Godkiller."
In front of the Amazon Library, there are also two Amazon warriors standing guard.
Seeing Chen Sheng's arrival from a distance, the two nodded in greeting.
"Hello two."
Chen Sheng responded, and then entered the library without much nonsense.
'This Lord of the Godslayer has been in the library for two days in a row, and he doesn't come out until night, and it seems that he is really very studious...'
One of the Amazon warriors couldn't help but glance back inside after Chen Sheng entered the library, thinking to himself.
Chen Sheng's name has basically been known to all Amazonians in the past two days.
Even if there are still many people who have not seen him in person, all the Amazon women know that if they see a handsome and tall man on the island, it must be the god killer who defeated Ares.
After entering the library, there was basically no one here in the early morning, the empty corridor, and only the faint echo of Chen Sheng's footsteps came from the floor, which seemed very quiet.
Inside the huge library, rows of tall bookcases are arranged horizontally, as if it is difficult to see the end at a glance, and the unique rich atmosphere of books slowly penetrates into the tip of Chen Sheng's nose, making him feel refreshed.
In the past two days, he felt that his harvest in the Amazon was simply not very good.
And Amazon's abundant reserves also greatly surprised him.
Should it be said that he is worthy of being a rich man with more than a dozen artifacts hidden in the treasure house?
Not only is the material resources abundant, but the knowledge reserve is also extremely amazing.
Whether it's history, theology, astronomy, geography, literature, language, psychology, and so on, there's basically everything here.
It can be said to be comparable to a large national library.
Chen Sheng also read the book for two days before he understood why Wonder Woman Diana had such a setting as a "moving humanoid self-propelled encyclopedia".
Although Wonder Woman is often easy to ignore her rich knowledge because of her belligerence and straightforward temper, Chen Sheng can be sure that if you want to know astronomy and geography, then I am afraid that Diana will claim to be the second in the human world, and it is estimated that no one can call her first.
If he could read books in this place for more than a hundred years, he would probably be able to do the same.
The only pity is that there is no modern scientific knowledge here, only some specious inferential books, but Chen Sheng also expressed his understanding, after all, in this world, the Amazon branch civilization used to belong to theocracy.
The things of the gods are either legends or epics, or magic, and they have anything to do with science.
Otherwise, with the spiritual power that he has now undergone the baptism of the secret method, he can learn all kinds of modern knowledge, what is ten lines at a glance, and never forget, it is a routine operation.
At first, he was a little unaccustomed to this feeling of being hung up in all directions, but after reading a large number of books for two days in a row, he basically got used to the current state.
He even thinks that he can throw himself into a large all-round industrial company and give himself some time, maybe he can try to be Iron Man.
Exoskeleton armor and steel armor technology, in their hometown, Huaxia also tried to have research, but it has been doing a very good job of stealth, when Chen Sheng served, as a grassroots soldier, he only heard about it, and he was not sure how far it had go.
When he saw that stinky Tony Stark boss on TV, he fantasized that it would be nice if he could wear it in a stylish iron armor.
The thoughts in his mind turned, and after going around in circles, Chen Sheng came to the bookcase that he had finished reading yesterday, and took out a mythological biography again and read it.
Although it is a myth, Chen Sheng knows that in fact, these books basically have archetypal sources, because the myths of this world once existed in real life, just like his hometown, and Norse mythology was also a legend, but until a blonde hunk man who carried a hammer all day long was elected by a beautiful country on the other side of the ocean, turned into a member of the so-called Avengers, and the whole world completely changed.
After reading the book for about ten minutes, suddenly, a voice came from behind me.
"Did you come to read so early?"
Hearing this, Chen Sheng raised his head, held the huge brown bookbook in his hand, and turned around.
"You've come with me all the way to give me a morning lesson, Diana."
Chen Sheng looked at Diana, the Amazon princess in front of him, who was two centimeters taller than him.
