When Gutas opened his eyes, he saw Richard standing to the side, his fingers burning with a beating flame, and a blister burning out of his elbow, apparently Richard's doing.

"What do you want to do?!" Gutas asked in a similar way, but because the rags were gagged in his mouth, all he could make was a "hmm

Fortunately, Richard understood his words and explained aloud: "You can't sleep. ”

"Huh?"

"Sleep lowers metabolic rate, slows blood flow, and has an impact on a lot of body data. In order to minimize errors, so to grieve you, you can't sleep until the first phase of the study is completed. Hold on!"

Gutas: "Hmm?!" Don't play with people like this! Draw his blood, stuff his mouth, and now he won't even be allowed to sleep, is there any reason for heaven?!

For Richard, there is no natural reason, only science.

What's wrong with sacrificing for science, it's all science! Well, his science.

Richard turned, picked up the syringe, and drew blood at Gutas again.

Gutas was speechless and wanted to say, "Give it a good time!"

However, all he said was: "Mmmm

In the days that followed, Gutas finally knew what hell was: he was constantly being drawn blood, and he was constantly being subjected to various studies. He felt that he was not a person at all, but a toy.

And there seems to be no end to such days.

Kill him!

"Mmmm

......

A few days later.

White Rock Tower College, Library.

Richard appears here.

There are two main reasons why I came here. One reason was to see if I could repeat the burning phenomenon of the quaint ring a few days ago, but it turned out that it couldn't, as if it was just an accident before. Another reason is to look for some books about the Bloodline Seed, so that you can study the secrets of the Bloodline Seed.

Picking up a large pile of books from the shelves, Richard walked to the side and sat down at the long table, and began to sift through and read.

And next to the long table, there was also a man, also reading a book, it was Gro.

I have to say that in recent times, Gro has been working very hard. Although the qualifications are a little worse, I have been catching up, not only enrolling in a lot of basic courses, but also reading a lot of books in the library voraciously.

At this time, Gro read "On the Difference Between a Wizard's Apprentice and a Wizard", his brows furrowed, and it took him a long time to turn a page, as if he was seriously thinking about every sentence on it.

In comparison, Richard is much more exaggerated, reading books is swept by ten lines at a glance, "brushing" and constantly flipping books, and it doesn't take long to roughly browse a book. After a moment of reflection, I put the books aside according to their own categories: those that have reference value and need to be read in detail are placed on the left, and those that are not valuable are placed on the right.

Richard and Gro read each other like this, without affecting each other.

After half a ring, Gro finished reading the small half of the book with difficulty, and Richard had already divided more than a dozen books into categories, of which most of them were useless, and only three were useful.

At this moment, the loud sound of the bronze bell outside the library rang out, marking the end of a class and the beginning of the next class.

Gro closed the book with some reluctance and stood up, looked at Richard, his eyes flashed, and asked in a low voice: "Your Excellency Richard, it's about to be a swordsmanship class, aren't you going?"

"Uh. Richard said, "I still have some business, so I won't go, you can go yourself." ”

"Uh, yes. Without much thought, Gro put the borrowed books back on the shelves and walked to the door of the library.

At this moment, a voice sounded next to him, shouting, "Gro!"

"Huh? It's you. Gro looked back at the person who spoke, and saw that it was a muscular man with a height of nearly two meters, Bucky, and immediately asked enthusiastically, "You are also going to take a sword class?"

"Of course. ”

"That piece. ”

"Good. ”

Then Richard saw Gro and Bucky walking past him side by side, looking very familiar, his eyes flashed, and his expression was slightly strange: "You two ......"

"Well, that's your Excellency Richard. Gro quickly explained, "You didn't go to the last sword class, it was Bucky and I who practiced together. He said that the first lesson was a misunderstanding, and in order to eliminate the misunderstanding, he specially helped me practice swordsmanship. He was a lot better than me and made me learn a lot, so he's my friend now. Isn't it, Bucky?"

"Uh......" Bucky nodded, "yes." ”

Richard's expression became even more eccentric.

Bucky quickly explained: "That Richard, don't get me wrong, Groh and I are really friends, well, ordinary normal friends. But in Richard's view, there is always a sense of emptiness in this explanation.

Richard shrugged: "Well, I wasn't mistaken. You two...... Good benefits. ”

"Forehead ......"

"Let's hurry up, Bucky, or we'll be late. "Gro Dao.

"Uh, yes. ”

"Farewell, Your Excellency Richard. ”

"Richard goodbye. ”

Gro and Bucky said goodbye to Richard and walked briskly out of the library.

Richard glanced at the backs of the two of them meaningfully, shook his head lightly, picked up the useless books screened on the table and put them back on the shelves, and then walked to the service desk at the door of the library with three useful books in his arms.

Standing behind the desk was a gray-haired teenager who was also a Level 3 wizard apprentice in the Academy. The other party is to earn crystal coins, and the service content is to register the books to be borrowed, and collect the corresponding borrowing fees, and the monthly salary is one and a half inferior crystal coins.

Richard knew all this, so without much nonsense, he put the three books on the counter and said briefly, "Borrow them for a month." ”

The gray-haired young man glanced at the names of the three books, quickly checked the list, took out the two books, and said, "These two books, the price of borrowing them for a month is half an inferior crystal coin, and the two books have a total of one inferior crystal coin." ”

"What about the other one?" asked Richard.

The gray-haired boy hesitated for a moment and said, "This book, no...... Lending is not permitted. ”

"Huh?" Richard raised an eyebrow, "Are you sure?

"Forehead...... "The gray-haired boy was slightly distracted," "Yes...... There are some reasons why it cannot be borrowed for the time being, and as for the signs, after that...... ...... will be added later"

The gray-haired young man said upside down, looking weak-hearted, and Richard couldn't help frowning when he heard it. In fact, he already had some speculations, the most likely being that the book had been booked by the rest of the people through some connections, or that the gray-haired boy wanted some favor, or something else.

Thinking about these things clearly, Richard did it very simply, and said loudly: "Okay, I won't borrow it, I'll go back." ”

Richard turned around, walked to the shelves with the books he wasn't allowed to borrow, and walked back empty-handed.

He paid an inferior crystal coin at the service desk, and then walked out of the library with the two books allowed to be borrowed, and walked down a remote path next to the entrance of the academy.

As he walked, the two books that Richard held in his hand suddenly disappeared out of thin air, and then reappeared, and then there was one more - the one that was not allowed to be borrowed or returned to the bookshelf - Richard naturally would not really return it, and at the same time as putting it back on the shelf, it was directly stuffed into the space iron ring, and it was easily brought out, and it would not be noticed at all.

Actually, all books can do that. Richard was confident that if he was given enough time, he could empty the entire college library.

Having said that, there is no need to do this - he is not short of crystal coins, he can borrow books through normal channels, why use illegal means? Stealing too many books through illegal means may cause some suspicion in the academy, and it is really not worth it.

But in some special cases, he is not pedantic, and he should still use it.

It's all about science.

Well, for the sake of science.
