After browsing for a while, Bu chose a protective cloak made from the fur of a low-level Level 1 Black Wind Wolf. The fur of the Black Wind Wolf was pitch black, soft, and lightweight, making it incredibly comfortable to wear.
This protective cloak was designed beautifully, with an open chest and large shawl, featuring seams on both sides that allowed for free movement of the arms. It was a common attire for nobles when they went out.
The cloak Bu selected was quite decent and provided some attribute bonuses. Naturally, he spent 40 Silver Kall for it.
"Normal Protective Cloak Category: Clothing Armor Required Equipment Level: Level 1 (Unique) Attributes: Strength +1 Agility +1 Material: Ordinary Weight: 760 grams Description: A garment designed by an ordinary tailor from Thorned Heart, offering certain attribute bonuses."
After putting on the cloak, Bu glanced at his personal attributes. Indeed, the attribute bonuses from the Serpent Scale Vest were nullified due to the uniqueness of the cloak.
As a result, Bu's basic attributes became Strength 7 points, Agility 1 point, Constitution 6 points, and Spirit 14 points.
He shook his head helplessly and took another look around the hall filled with various other garments. Swallowing hard, he reluctantly turned to leave.
With his meager Wealth, facing such exorbitant prices felt like being robbed; he truly had the desire but lacked the means.
It should be noted that he was still in the first layer of the ordinary area; there were seven more layers above him. Good items were likely to be even more abundant, but of course, their prices would also be jaw-dropping.
Exiting Thorned Heart's storefront, Bu hurriedly instructed Locke to take him to Sparta City's largest library.
After passing through several streets and a square, they arrived at Frank Library, Sparta City's largest library.
This library was established next to a residential area near South Gate in Sparta City. The environment was quite serene, located some distance away from the bustling streets.
Not far in front of the library flowed an inner city river, with an arched bridge spanning across to separate the streets on either side. Green willows lined both banks of the river, swaying gently in the wind—a truly peaceful spot amidst the chaos.
Aside from its slightly larger size, Frank Library did not have any peculiar features that surprised Bu.
He and Locke walked in and learned from the librarian at the entrance that a reading fee of one Silver Kall was required to enter the library. With no other choice, he had to let Locke wait outside while he paid the fee and entered the library.
The library was spacious, with magical lamps hanging from the ceiling and the walls on both sides. The bright white light made the entire library feel like it was daytime, and at a glance, rows upon rows of bookshelves were neatly arranged.
Inside the library, there were only a few people wandering about—some stood flipping through books, while others sat at tables next to the bookshelves, holding books and searching for something. The tall bookshelves created a sense of separation, making the small number of people seem insignificant.
Each bookshelf was about 0 meters long and nearly 5 meters high. He roughly estimated that in this expansive area of about 0 square meters, there were probably no less than fifty rows of bookshelves arranged by different categories. The sheer volume of books made him feel overwhelmed.
Finding the information he wanted among these hundreds of thousands of volumes was not an easy task.
With no other option, he had to calm himself down and start searching diligently through the rows.
After several minutes had passed, he had wandered around the room enough to have a general understanding of how each row of bookshelves was categorized.
He arrived at the section concerning magical beasts and looked at the densely packed books. He sighed and casually pulled out a book titled "Monster Type Guide."
As he stroked the cover for a moment and was about to open the first page, suddenly, a "ding" sound echoed—the System Notification Sound rang out. Bu Wei paused for a moment before focusing on it.
"System Notification: Book 'Monster Type Guide' discovered. Would you like to add 'Monster Type Guide' to your Library System? Once added, it will exist permanently and can be accessed at any time."
Staring at this line of information, he was momentarily stunned but quickly reacted with overwhelming joy and chose to agree without hesitation.
At the instant he agreed, a transparent progress bar suddenly appeared above the book in his hand.
The progress bar floating above the book had a green light moving slowly forward within it, resembling water being poured into a cup, visibly increasing in speed.
Minutes passed, and when the green light in the progress bar finally reached its end, the System Notification Sound rang out again.
"System Prompt: Reading complete, Library System has recorded the book titled Monster Type Guide."
Bu hurriedly opened his personal attributes panel, and sure enough, next to the Servant option, a new option appeared—Library.
Entering it with his mind, Bu suddenly envisioned a bookshelf in his mind, with a solitary book placed on the wide shelf.
Focusing his thoughts, the book floated up from his mind, flipping its pages as the text became clear and distinct, identical to that of the Monster Type Guide.
Below the floating book were two transparent boxes. One box was labeled "Search Query," while the other was labeled "Delete Book."
Guessing their purposes, Bu tried entering the low-level monster Python into the transparent box and clicked on Search Query.
With a whoosh, the floating Monster Type Guide began to flip through its pages rapidly but stopped after a moment. The content on the page now clearly displayed information about the monster Python.
Regaining his focus, Bu exited the Library System. He raised his head, his gaze greedily fixed on the rows of densely packed books, excitement bubbling within him as he looked at these books like a wolf discovering Little Red Riding Hood's big tail.
Without hesitation, Bu quickly pulled out a book without bothering to check its title and began reading with a progress bar.
"Ding" "Ding" "Ding"...
In the spacious library room, only a dozen people were browsing through the books on various shelves. Some appeared relaxed, as if they had seen Yan Ruyu or touched Golden House, while others furrowed their brows, seemingly deep in thought.
Among these dozen people was one who stood out.
This person frequently pulled books from the shelves but did not read them; instead, he stared blankly at the covers. Every few minutes, he would return a book to its place and then search through the shelves again, quickly pulling out another book and repeating his strange actions.
This odd individual was naturally Bu. By now, he had spent a considerable amount of time in the library. With over two hundred books recorded in the Library System, his initial excitement had gradually turned into numbness and boredom.
Anyone who has been doing the same thing for over ten hours would likely feel a sense of boredom.
Calculating the reading time for each book in minutes, one hour only allows for reading zero books.
After more than ten hours, Bu had managed to collect over a hundred books. As a result, he had become more selective compared to when he first started. After all, time was limited, and he could not afford to indiscriminately collect books.
After finishing the book in his hands, Bu yawned, returned it to its place on the shelf, stretched his arms, and then focused on entering the Library System.
At this moment, the spacious bookshelf no longer held just a solitary book; it now displayed over a hundred neatly arranged volumes.
Among these, Bu had collected over sixty books on magical beasts; several volumes detailing various strange occurrences and power distributions across the continent; over a dozen detailed records from different Ancient Times; more than forty books on the historical development of various countries in the Fran Continent; and finally, a handful of books introducing noble etiquette.
As for the most important target of this endeavor, the Holy Dragon—Nicolothus—Bu found no information about it among all these books on magical beasts.
There were indeed many records about dragons, but none contained any clues regarding the Holy Dragon Nicolothus, as if this member did not exist within the entire dragon race.
Just as Bu felt frustrated and disheartened, he unexpectedly found some clues in the historical records of nations.
In a book titled "The Development History of the Holy Radiance Empire," it was recorded that during the war between the Holy Radiance Empire and the Dark Order Alliance's Radiant Empire, an internal traitor had brought back crucial strategic intelligence to the Radiant Empire. This ultimately led to their strategic plans being exposed and resulted in a significant defeat on the front lines.
To turn around this unfavorable situation, the Holy Radiance Empire's guardian beast, Holy Dragon Nicolothus, appeared at the forefront. With such a terrifying presence at Super Tier Level 9 stationed there, the morale of the frontline troops surged. They held their ground and stabilized the situation to prevent further losses.
Through this battle, the powerful strategic weapon of the Holy Radiance Empire—the Holy Dragon Nicolothus—was fully revealed to the world.
Despite having found the information he sought, Bu felt no joy; instead, he became even more agitated.
A Super Tier Level 9 existence—such terrifying power already stood at the pinnacle of Fran Continent.
He had to kill such a powerful and terrifying divine beast within three years. The horror of this Ultimate Mission was simply insane. It would be better for him to enjoy three good years and then simply commit suicide, making it easier on himself.
"Well, I guess I'll just take it one step at a time."
Bu's expression changed, but he eventually calmed down and sighed.
He understood clearly that even though the difficulty of this mission was comparable to climbing a mountain, he still had some hope.
With the so-called cheating Upgrade System, giving him three years to improve his strength, Bu himself couldn't predict how powerful he would become in three years.
Perhaps the currently formidable and terrifying Holy Dragon would not be invincible to him three years from now.
Therefore, what he needed to do now was to never give up!
To become strong, one must tread a path filled with thorns. The determination of one's will and the height of one's aspirations are particularly important.
