Demon King: Hero, don't run away!-Chapter 1026 - 1027: Visiting the Knowledge Repository

Capítulo 1026: Chapter 1027: Visiting the Knowledge Repository

The light flickering in the transparent sphere gradually extinguished.

Yang Yu had absorbed all the Dragon Race Essence his body could withstand.

Putting away the transparent sphere, the Dragon King glanced Yang Yu over from head to toe, slightly surprised.

Clearly, Yang Yu absorbed quite a bit of Dragon Race Essence, yet aside from his aura, there was no change in his appearance.

“Preparing the prize will need some time.

Fortunately, you have many questions you’d like to ask, so you can research while you wait.

Once all your questions have answers, the prize should be ready.”

The Dragon King did not delve into the reason why Yang Yu’s appearance remained unchanged and took him outside the palace.

As soon as they stepped out, a dazzling Magic Array lit up beneath Yang Yu’s feet, teleporting him toward the southeast to the knowledge library.

When his feet touched the ground again, the white before his eyes slowly faded, revealing rows of black shelves.

The black shelves spread out in rings centered around him and the Dragon King, but instead of books, they held densely packed black metal boxes.

Looking up, the white sky seemed endless.

This was the interior of the knowledge library, recording countless unknown secrets.

Yang Yu scanned his surroundings again and noticed a bronze-haired youth with a Dragon Horn and a monocle, sprawled out asleep on a sofa in front of a shelf.

Perhaps sensing someone visiting, the youth slowly opened his eyes, sleepily wiping away the drool at the corner of his mouth, squinting towards Yang Yu and the others.

Seeing it was the Dragon King, the youth hurriedly struggled to stand up from the sofa.

Bronze Dragon Owen stepped forward to greet the Dragon King, respectfully saying:

“Council President, I’ve already completed the task you asked of me. Is there anything else you need from me?”

As Owen spoke, he noticed Yang Yu beside the Dragon King and immediately understood why the Dragon King summoned him.

The Dragon King shook his head, “You look tired. Continue resting; I’ll find someone else.”

Owen immediately blocked the Dragon King, summoned his energy a hundredfold, and said with a silly smile:

“It’s rare to have a guest visit here…

Don’t rush away!

Look at me, full of energy.

I’m the most knowledgeable giant dragon in this year’s Dragon God Council.

No one is more suitable to answer questions. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Council President, don’t you have many things to attend to?

If I answer his questions early, you can focus on your tasks more easily.”

Owen’s enthusiasm was contagious, as if his earlier fatigue and laziness had never existed.

“The fact that the Council President has come here for me surely indicates his questions are related to what I’ve recently collected and compiled.

I can guarantee to perfectly answer even a detail.”

Seeing Owen like this, the Dragon King sighed inwardly.

He always felt that if Owen continued like this, one day he’d go against his solemn oath and sneak away.

Yang Yu tentatively asked, “Mr. Owen, what have you been collecting and compiling recently?”

Owen answered without hesitation, “I’ve compiled all the materials on the Goblin Emperor.

I’ve read through his stories from start to finish.

Even the most brutal details, I’ve not missed a bit.

Honestly, I’ve felt anger, disgust, sadness…

But whenever I have those feelings, I think of what the Council President taught me, to view history from an objective and fair perspective…

Eventually, I adapted.

Only then did I compile all the noteworthy details and hand them over to the Council President.

In short, the events of the past are not bearable for ordinary people.

Having read those histories myself, I can help you avoid certain pitfalls.”

Owen’s gaze was bright, as if continually shouting to Yang Yu, “Choose me! Choose me! You must choose me!”, fearing Yang Yu would run off to some other place.

Yang Yu smiled helplessly and suggested to the Dragon King, “Since Mr. Owen knows so much, could we trouble him? I’m quite interested in some details.”

After pondering for a long time, the Dragon King finally spoke to Owen:

“Then Owen, I’ll assign the task of answering his questions to you.

This is the list of his questions; remember to only answer those listed.

If you respond beyond that, you know the consequences, right?”

The Dragon King twitched his finger, and a sheet of paper appeared from thin air, landing in Owen’s hand.

Owen looked at it, and good heavens, there were over 200 questions written on the paper.

Scanning them roughly, Owen’s lips curled into a slight smile.

He did not dislike Seekers.

It is precisely the lack of Seekers like Yang Yu that causes the decline and even extinction of past technologies in this Magic World.

Owen puffed out his chest and pledged, “Of course I know, I wouldn’t want to face the Judgment Council’s punishment.

Council President, rest assured and attend other work.”

The Dragon King sternly reminded him once more, “Then it’s in your hands.

I emphasize again, remember what I said, only answer the questions on the paper.”

Owen nodded, “Rest assured, leave it to me!”

Responding to Owen, the Dragon King transformed into a white light, leaving the knowledge library.

Confirming the Dragon King had indeed left, Owen cleared his throat with a light cough.

Then…

He dropped his previous prim and serious demeanor, immediately letting loose, taking long strides to Yang Yu’s side, his mood extremely high.

“I watched the final match.

All my hard work was worth it; those few evasions were incredible. How were they done?

Gosh, if not for work suddenly coming up, I would’ve watched every match intently.

Though I don’t want spoilers, hearing them directly from someone involved is different; it feels like being there.

Before formally answering your questions, could you tell me about your match?

If you’re willing to share your match with me, I’ll explain things even more thoroughly when I answer yours.

Would that be okay?”

In front of Yang Yu, Owen was nothing like a mighty dragon, more like a child brimming with curiosity.

Hearing that Owen was willing to explain more thoroughly, Yang Yu was naturally willing to share the match’s process.

Gathering knowledge in the library was destined to be quite a lengthy process, and now he also needed to tell stories to Owen. Returning to the Arena was significantly delayed.

Fortunately, before coming, Yang Yu had already arranged his team, allowing him to collect the knowledge he wanted at ease.

After three hours of recounting, Yang Yu finally finished describing his matches from the first round to the last.

Owen was still eager, interested in Yang Yu’s other adventures, but he couldn’t continue to ask.

He also needed to start his work; otherwise, when the Dragon King checked, he wouldn’t be able to report back.

Owen smiled, waved his hand, and the bookshelves around Yang Yu sank one by one.

He suggested to Yang Yu:

“I’ve got your questions.

Simply answering them in order is too dull, so feel free to ask.

What’s your first question?”
