Chapter 406: 406: Library (Extra update for “Never Abandon, Never Give Up, Dragon Master”)

“New Media Library? Dr. Kang Lin, damn it, is there a place called New Media Library in this city?” Song Jian glanced at the note, which only had one sentence on it, instructing him to find the New Media Library and look for a man named Dr. Kang Lin, who would tell him what was really going on.

“You kidnap my follower, whom I’ve trained with great care, and then make me go to such a strange place. What on earth are you trying to do, my dear Priest?” Song Jian crumpled the note and snorted coldly before turning to leave.

At the moment, he was not in a good mood. The potential of the Dawn Warrior was immense, possessing the talents to become a great warrior. However, the only thing that displeased Song Jian was that this young man had a very firm faith in the Goddess of Dawn. It’s likely that the Cecilia Priest used the name of the Goddess of Dawn to deceive him.

As Song Jian left Manor Castle, he took out the city map and began searching for the so-called New Media Library’s location.

After searching for a long time, he finally found the words New Media Library in the upper right corner of the city map.

The place was more than thirty kilometers away from the safe house where Song Jian was staying, taking nearly an hour to reach by motorcycle. Moreover, he had to cross a level thirty monster area to get there.

To Song Jian’s surprise, there was actually a small green area next to the New Media Library, indicating that there was another player living area similar to Camel Square.

“Interesting!” Song Jian memorized the route and became somewhat interested in the area.

There were five or six similar areas on the map, mostly near the outskirts of the city, where monster levels were low and suitable for new players. The further in the city, the higher the monster levels and the stronger they were. The central part of the city was a death zone, still ruled by the monsters.

Song Jian summoned his motorcycle and headed towards the New Media Library.

Brr-brr-brr-

The motorcycle was quite loud, attracting monsters within a hundred meters radius. This gave Song Jian a headache. Ever since encountering the Abyssal Nightmare, Song Jian had always wanted to change his mode of transport.

Soon, Song Jian arrived at the area where the New Media Library was located, following the city’s bypass on the map. Behind him, a large group of mutated zombies was still wildly chasing and roaring after him.

Some of the mutated zombies had already lost their way after following for a long time, but even so, there were still more than a hundred level twenty mutated zombies and even a level twenty elite BOSS behind Song Jian. Fortunately, the BOSS was not an agile one; otherwise, Song Jian might not have reached his destination safely.

Glancing at the elite BOSS, taller than the other zombies, Song Jian felt some regret. He put away his motorcycle and turned into a nearby alley. The low walls could not stop Song Jian’s progress; with a light leap, he disappeared into the alley. The monsters behind him swarmed into the alley, crashing into everything like headless flies.

Although Song Jian was powerful, he was not yet able to fight off over a hundred monsters and an elite BOSS of the same level in an open road. If he had been surrounded by the monsters behind him, Song Jian could only use Morphing into Dark Cloud to escape, or be trapped and die where he stood.

After turning a few corners, Song Jian finally stood in front of the New Media Library.

Comparing to the dilapidated library in the Shadow District, the magnificent and enormous library before Song Jian’s eyes was a true library. It was probably the only library of its kind in the entire city.

Looking at the dozens of wide steps in front of him, the library seemed like a medieval temple. Just one glance at it made people feel the majesty of the Creator and their own insignificance.

Looking up the stairs, dozens of golden-armored guards were firmly guarding the entire library in the center. All of these guards were level thirty, possessing Tier 1 combat power. Just a glance made Song Jian grow cautious; these beings were beyond his current capacity to defeat.

Some players at level ten and above were slowly walking towards the library gate, including several NPC professionals. These NPC professionals wore expressions of reverence, some even reciting hymns softly as they slowly climbed the steps.

The players appeared more relaxed, but there was no horseplay, just walking calmly.

As Song Jian was about to go up, he suddenly felt someone tap his shoulder.

“Hey, buddy, are you here to try your luck too?” A young man’s voice sounded in Song Jian’s ear.

Turning his head, Song Jian saw a man in a grey Mage robe standing beside him. The man’s body was enveloped by the robe, with a tall Mage hat on his head and a Magic Staff in hand. He looked like a wizard from a fairy tale.

Perhaps sensing Song Jian’s strange gaze, Zhu Hao couldn’t help but explain.

“This is a level ten set, and although it doesn’t look good, the attributes are excellent!” Zhu Hao even showed his set’s attributes to Song Jian.

Song Jian was slightly taken aback and immediately laughed. The player in front of him seemed to have no suspicion towards strangers at all. It was rare for any player to show their attributes to other players, let alone their equipment and skills.

After a glance, Song Jian could see that the man was wearing a “Magic Apprentice” set, with six pieces in total. Once all the pieces were equipped, the set’s attributes were indeed impressive, not only increasing spell damage but also automatically restoring mana. It could be considered a top-grade set.

“You’re so lucky, managing to collect such an excellent set!” Song Jian complimented.

“Hehe, yeah, but it took me a lot of effort though. Otherwise, I would have been in the top ten of the level and honor boards,” Zhu Hao said proudly. “Oh, my name is Zhu Hao, by the way, and you?”

“Song Jian!” Song Jian replied with a faint smile.

“Hmm, that name sounds familiar, as if I’ve heard it somewhere,” Zhu Hao muttered.

“What did you say about trying your luck?” Song Jian diverted the topic.

“You came here to try your luck, didn’t you? This library has one entry quota per day. Once you enter, you just need to complete a simple task to get a book as a reward!” Zhu Hao said excitedly. “I entered once before, and I got a spell book as a reward. Hehe, 1 even heard someone got an alchemy drug formula, a forging blueprint, and even a book containing the locations of all the herbs in the game…”
