Chapter 565: Nothing You Can’t Imagine
“Everyone, welcome to the Everything House.”
A pretty woman in a maid’s uniform welcomed Deena and the others with a smile.
“This is a place created by Young Master Watson, dedicated to satisfying the curiosity of the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s residents. In this Everything House, no matter what information you want to know, you can get it. There’s nothing you can’t imagine and nothing you can’t get.”
“Isn’t that an exaggeration?”
The officials did not believe what the maid had said. Some of them looked confused.
“If you don’t believe me, I can verify it. What do you want to know? There will be a special discount on your first order—no fee is needed.”
“Let me try. When the elven army captured the city a few days ago, I lost a sword in my house. That sword is my family heirloom. I wonder where it is now and if the elves have damaged it.”
One of the noblemen who looked doubtful spoke first.
“Please wait a moment. I have already passed your question to the archive manager. If you wait patiently for a few minutes, we will get the results.” The maid smiled and pointed behind her. A crack immediately appeared on the wall. Then, everyone noticed a spiral staircase behind the crack, leading to an unknown high altitude. There were also bookshelves on the spiral stairs; they were filled with all kinds of information.
When everyone first entered the house, they felt as if the house was not as big as it had looked from the outside. Then, it seemed bigger than they had imagined, but most of the area was occupied by those books.
Roar!
While everyone was sighing over the house’s structure, a roar pulled their attention back. They saw a thick and long black tentacle hanging from the spiral-shaped sky. It was covered with half-opened scarlet eyes. As it rotated, evil power spread outward. Everyone felt fear in their hearts.
“What is that thing?”
“That is the magical beast that protects the Everything House. Its name is the Old Dominator. It is an evil divine creature from ancient times. Its strength is comparable to that of a god! However, it is also very docile. It will not take the initiative to harm you. The Everything House has a lot of information stored in it. If we were to search for that information one by one, it would take a lot of time. The Old Dominator has many eyes. Its gaze also has a penetrating effect. It can solve any problem quickly.”
The maid explained the situation to everyone.
Watson was in charge of the Everything House, including its staffing. The first was the Old Dominator. That was a copy of the ancient evil god that Watson had created using the Book of Wisdom, a peak starlight-tier artifact. It could help the Everything House search for information quickly, and it could also act as a fighting force should the need arise.
Other than that, the large amount of information stored in the Everything House, which involved the history of humankind, was filled in by Watson using the human chess pieces. After all, the human chess pieces recorded the entire history of humanity. The rest of the information was obtained through the painstaking efforts of Elven and the Severed Fingers members, who had gone to various parts of the Holy Dragon Kingdom to gather information.
“I see.”
Many officials patted their chests and heaved a sigh of relief. Since the appearance of the golden river in the city, many of those who had not trained were upgraded to gold-tier. They knew that the soldiers who had joined the planetary fortress army had been promoted to diamond-tier, and they also had the opportunity to be promoted in the future. However, they were still apprehensive of any powerful existence at starlight-tier. At the same time, they sighed in their hearts. It was as they had expected of Watson—it was always something unexpected.
“Lady, you haven’t answered my question yet.” A moment later, the noble who had just asked the question recovered from his shock.
“Please don’t be anxious. I will read the information you need right now. ”
The maid clapped her hands. The black tentacles hanging down from the cracks in the wall flipped over and placed an illusory text formed from a magic book into the girl’s hand. The girl took a look at it and cleared her throat to read it.
“Sir, the family heirloom sword that you lost, is it called the Lion King’s sword? Is it a gold-tier peak weapon? The elves did not take that weapon. Instead, your wife sold it to a black market merchant at a high price. The reason was that she wanted to buy a huge manor in the city to support her lover.”
“My wife? That’s impossible. My wife loves me very much. There’s no way she would sell our family heirloom to buy a manor, let alone privately meet her lover.”
The noble official’s expression changed drastically.
“The Omniscient House is only responsible for reading the information. Our information is always accurate. If you don’t believe me, why don’t you go and verify it yourself? The address of the manor is at Planetary Fortress No. 1, Sun Avenue, XXX. Right now, your wife should be with her lover.”
As the young lady spoke, the noble official gritted his teeth and turned around to rush out of the Everything House.
If Deena were not there, he would wave his sleeves and leave after hearing what the young lady said—he was furious. Of course, he could not do that then. He had to verify the information. If it were fake, he would deal with Deen then. Alter all, that news made him lose his reputation.
In less than half an hour, that noble ran back to the Everything House. A sword inlaid with seven gemstones was in his hand, and on the hilt was a lion’s head. The man’s clothes were also much messier. There was a scratch on his face.
“Lady, you are absolutely right. My wife did use my heirloom to buy a longsword and has befriended more than one lover! I didn’t expect she would do this when I treated her so well and served her every day. She actually betrayed me. Now that I’ve gotten my heirloom sword back, I’ve also divorced her. Thank you. Otherwise, I would still be kept in the dark.”
The noble rushed in and apologized to the maid excitedly. When he realized that everyone around him, including Deena, was looking at him strangely, he coughed and restrained his overly excited expression. “My lady, I wonder if you have any more information about me. Can I have a look?”
“I’m sorry, sir. The first piece of information was for free just now. If you need any more information now, I’ll have to charge you. ”
“How much?”
“Different information has different prices. The price for what you’re asking is 1,000 gold coins per piece. ”
“I’ll use this sword as collateral. Give me ten pieces first.”
The nobleman waved his hand and placed the treasured sword on the table. There were seven gemstones embedded in the treasured sword, and each of them was a priceless antique. Each of them was worth no less than 1,000 gold coins. In addition, the blade had been passed down since the founding of the kingdom, so its value was not exaggerated.
To find more information about him, the nobleman did not even want his family heirloom anymore. What was a family heirloom? He did not know who was plotting against him, so he had no use for that heirloom. It was better to exchange it for precious information. He wanted to see what else he did not know besides his wife cuckolding him.
