Chapter 15: Royal Academy Library
Cage received the Royal Academy trainee admission notice. Since Cage had no future in martial arts and magic, he was not allowed to study at the Royal Academy. Therefore, after he built his house, he had to support himself. However, Cage asked Watson to invite the dean to enjoy a good time in the clubhouse, and then took out a sum of school construction funds to the dean. At the same time, he opened up the relationship between all parties, and the trainee qualification certificate was soon in his hands.
Cage was not interested in classes. He was interested in the Royal Academy Library. The only reason he wanted to apply for this trainee qualification certificate was for the library card, because the Royal Academy stipulated that only Royal Academy students and teachers could apply for a library card and borrow books from the Royal Academy Library. Most of the books were made of animal skins or silk, and they were either woodcuts or stonecuts. Therefore, most of the civilization in this world was in the hands of a small number of people. The vast majority of people were illiterate, and there was no alternative to paper, so the development of civilization was also restricted.
Although Cage knew how to make paper, he had no power now and did not intend to take these things out. The slow development of civilization naturally made sense. This was the law of nature. Even if it was himself, it was better not to change it at will.
Cage took the library card he had obtained and entered the Royal Academy in the carriage arranged by Watson. Although the Royal Academy is the highest institution of learning in the country, its architectural style can only be described in one word "ancient" in Cage's opinion. Although it gives people a simple and grand atmosphere, with the changes of the times, it is too old and cannot express the vigorous atmosphere of the academy.
After getting off the carriage at the door, Cage walked into the academy. It must be said that the biggest advantage of this era is the good greening and environment. Walking on the tree-shaded path, Cage felt like he had returned to his previous life and the path of his hometown. Everything was so familiar. Cage deliberately slowed down his pace and enjoyed this familiar feeling.
"Hey, look, there's a new handsome boy in our college." The scream of the girl next to him naturally reached Cage's ears. This was the most satisfying thing about Cage in this life. He was handsome enough. Although he was not yet fourteen years old, his height had reached 1.78 meters. Due to his excellent royal bloodline, he was perfect in appearance. Coupled with his golden hair and the royal symbol of golden eyes, Cage could proudly say that his handsomeness was enough to charm most girls. His personal charm was quite high.
"Look, it's a handsome boy." There were more people chirping, and he met more girls along the way.
Cage only remembered at this time that he didn't know the way to the library, so he walked towards a girl next to him, who had a little acne on her face and was full of youth. "Miss, how do I get to the library?" Cage asked very politely
Seeing the lady looking at him in a daze, he asked again. The girl finally reacted, her cheeks flushed, "Go, go forward, turn right at the first fork, and walk to the tallest building when you see it." The girl was a little at a loss, and stammered to tell Cage the place.
"Okay, thank you!" Cage thanked her and turned around and walked in the direction the girl pointed.
"Oh my God, he talked to me, such charming eyes, I feel like my heart is about to stop beating." The girl said infatuatedly.
"So charming, he smells good too, so aristocratic." The girl next to him was also excited.
"How do you think he compares to the top ten masters in the school?" asked the acne girl.
"It must be good. Look at his etiquette and demeanor. Can ordinary people compare with him? Did you notice that he has golden eyes just now? Oh my god, he is a royal family."
"Yes, yes, it is golden eyes, so charming, I wonder which prince he is."
"I don't know, the other princes in school don't have such charming eyes as his. When he looks at me, I feel that my soul is attracted to him and completely follows him."
"Yes, me too."
The infatuation of ordinary little girls has no effect on Cage, not to mention that he has walked far away and came to the library. The librarian is an old man. I don't know how old he is. He is very old, but Cage can still see the energy flowing in his body. His strength is not weak, at least the level of an 8th-level warrior, but he can't understand why such a powerful warrior would stay in this obscure place and be willing to be a librarian.
Cage is not a gossipy person, and he doesn't want to know other people's privacy.
"Except for books on fighting spirit and magic, other books can be borrowed and taken out of the library, but the reading time is only 30 days, and damage must be compensated at twice the price." The administrator calmly introduced mechanically.
"Okay, I understand."
After checking his library card, Cage went directly into the library. The library was very large and classified. The reason why the room was large was not because there were too many books, but because the books were too big. If a novel had a million words, it would require a carriage to carry them. If it was a stone-carved book, it was estimated that there were so many that you couldn't move them back at all.
Cage roughly browsed the magic books and fighting spirit books here. There was nothing more special than the books in the palace academy. They were all notes of predecessors. Cage roughly flipped through a few books and was not interested. Cage had basically read everything written on them. It seemed that the royal family still kept a lot of secrets and did not publish them at all. However, for some reason, not many people went to the palace to read related fighting spirit books.
Cage just flipped through most of the books on fighting and magic that had no new content, and then focused his energy on geology, history, and Warcraft. In the library, Cage mainly read some magic and fighting books, and as for the books on the side, he took them home to read. Fortunately, he had a better laborer, House, who had been following him. The task of memorizing books was naturally given to House. Would it be a waste of his height to let the prince memorize them?
Now that the club, casino, and fighting insect hall have entered normal operation, Cage does not need to spend much energy. Even if he wants to spend time managing affairs, the forces of all parties will not allow it. Wouldn't that give him the opportunity to control the entire business! This is absolutely not allowed. If it is not necessary, don't ask for his opinion. The casinos that have entered operation have already brought back a large amount of funds for them, and they are also able to continue to expand the scope of business, just as he encouraged, to occupy the world. Perhaps when other countries discover the harm, the impact will be very large. Before that, all Cage has to do is to get out. Every few months, Cage would come up with a new way to play poker or dice to ensure freshness, and at the same time warn those forces that they would not be able to do without him.
Cage is very satisfied with his current life. He either reads books in the library or at home, constantly learning about the world, and making plans for his future life. His life is still quite comfortable. Through his understanding of the flora and fauna of this world and his in-depth research on magic, he has become more and more motivated to develop new ways of playing. For example, the constant temperature magic circle and the wind magic circle in the club were all developed by Cage himself. All the major forces thought that Cage was good at designing tools, but in fact they had no idea that these tools contained complex magic circles. Cage also had to thank his geometry and physics teachers in his previous life for teaching him how to calculate graphics and describe, summarize and conclude physical phenomena. Only then did Cage master the so-called most complex thing in the world - the magic circle.
Cage, who has no strength, also knows how to hide his shortcomings and live as low-key as possible. In order to show his dandy side, Cage went hunting with House for the first time.
There are also animals similar to horses in this world. They are basically the same as horses in running, carrying weight and other functions. However, the difference is that this animal has a special skill that can obtain the power of wind. This animal is called a magic horse. The more powerful the magic horse is, the stronger the power of wind it can obtain and the faster it runs.
Cage took House out with two people. He didn't like a large number of servants following him. After carrying bows, swords and other equipment, he rode the magic horse to the woods outside the city. House was obviously more experienced than Cage. He walked in front very carefully and checked the traces on the ground.
"Your Highness, there should be a magic pig in front, not far from us." House carefully checked the messy footprints on the ground.
"Let's follow it, House, you are quite proficient in hunting!"
"My ancestors were hunters, and they have always relied on this skill to survive." House replied respectfully after getting on the horse.
"Ha, ha, it seems that following you is definitely the right thing to do. We will have a magic pig to eat tonight, and we will have a feast tonight. Otherwise, we should not go back and spend the night outside. I also want to see the outside world."
"Everything is up to your Highness's orders."
"Okay, let's go." The two pulled the reins to let the magic horse walk slowly, and kept moving forward along the messy steps. Cage was also hunting for the first time, and he was very excited.
