My bathroom connects to another world
Chapter 297 - 297 297 Prepared Long Ago

297: Chapter 297: Prepared Long Ago 297: Chapter 297: Prepared Long Ago Zhao Guang, having left the team, didn’t immediately rush to the library; instead, he studied the local customs and culture along the way.

Or more precisely, just the wind and the land, as there weren’t many vendors around, and none seemed keen on calling out to attract customers.

They would only speak if someone approached showing interest in buying something.

Moreover, since this was a frontier city, the best items available here were various types of weapons and armor.

Additionally, the various by-products from hunting trips were quite rare.

After looking around, Zhao Guang concluded that there seemed to be no special products in this area, or rather, nothing particularly unique.

No wonder it wasn’t easy to develop this place without any local specialties.

Furthermore, maintaining such a large army, the expenditures made it impossible for the Sibar Family to accumulate wealth.

It was only through trading with him that they managed to make a considerable profit, enough to easily support these soldiers.

As Zhao Guang walked, soldiers periodically passed by; the quality of the soldiers here was evidently better than that on the front lines where both sides were restricted.

At the very least, many of the soldiers here had attained the rank of Junior Warrior.

Walking along, Zhao Guang silently calculated and found that one in less than ten men possessed Combat Energy.

This was due to Zhao Guang’s strong perception abilities, thus the soldiers couldn’t hide it from him.

“It seems that this world is much deeper than I imagined,” he mused as another group of soldiers passed by, one of whom vaguely posed a threat to him.

Although the sense was faint, it implied that the strength of this soldier was definitely at the Intermediate Warrior level.

This was just in a poorer frontier area; surely stronger individuals were present elsewhere.

Indeed, it was better to keep himself well hidden to remain safer.

“Master, what are you talking about?” Jeana asked as she looked up, puzzled.

“I’m saying there’s nothing really interesting here for us, let’s head to the library,” Zhao Guang said, chuckling at the sight of Jeana with her mouth greasy from eating.

Luckily, there were still places selling cooked food on the street.

Perhaps due to her background, Jeana didn’t have much liking for vegetables and fruits, having a preference for meat instead.

In this aspect, Xi Fei was the same, yet neither of them seemed to gain weight no matter how much they ate.

If women on Earth knew about their metabolism, they would probably be envious to death.

With the two of them in tow, Zhao Guang arrived at the library.

They were just at the entrance when a guard stopped them.

Yes, a guard, as not just anyone could enter the libraries of this world.

Zhao Guang presented a document, “I am a Knight and a guest of the Sibar family.”

This was a document Ocoro had given him before leaving; without it, he genuinely couldn’t have accessed the library.

After all, in this world, books and knowledge were extremely precious.

An elderly man came out, looked over the document carefully, and then nodded his head.

“These two cannot enter; only nobles may access the library.

Moreover, none of the books in the library may be taken out; you are aware of this, aren’t you?” he said.

Zhao Guang nodded, “You two wait for me in the restaurant nearby.”

After saying that, Zhao Guang entered the library.

Once inside, he found it to be surprisingly empty; accurately speaking, other than the elderly man, there was just himself.

Upon his entry, the old man went aside to lie down again.

Being old and lacking energy, he couldn’t match the vitality of younger people.

Zhao Guang didn’t bother him but started examining the books.

These were of very ordinary types, naturally not very refined, and names were only visible when pulled out.

However, most of the books turned out to be rather useless novels.

Zhao Guang flipped through a few and then shook his head in resignation, deeming them too unrealistic, clichéd, and illogical.

Reading such materials was better done on Earth, where an abundance was available online.

Eventually, Zhao Guang found that only a very small portion of the materials were of any use.

“Ah well, I never really had high expectations anyway.

But, I came prepared.” Zhao Guang said, smiling as he pulled out a professional camera.

Yes, a camera.

He had planned this from the outset, although he could have used his phone, it was a bit too much hassle.

He placed the Anti-Magic Crystal that he had temporarily removed from his vehicle into a slot, which he then attached to the camera, allowing it to start up properly.

Zhao Guang began taking photographs of the pages one by one.

The old man didn’t understand what Zhao Guang was doing, but since the latter wasn’t damaging the books, he didn’t interfere.

After all, he was a noble, and there were many eccentric nobles; who knew what they liked to do?

Previously, an elderly noble had creepily lingered by the bookshelves for a long time, and the old man hadn’t dared to say anything either.

But afterwards, he had the bookshelf thoroughly cleaned.

The smell had been too much.

If it wasn’t cleaned properly, the old man himself wouldn’t have been able to sleep at night.

With no one stopping him, Zhao Guang freely continued.

The photos clicked rapidly, and in no time, he had captured everything he deemed useful.

Leaving aside other considerations, he now had plenty to verify.

Leaving the library, Zhao Guang found a secluded spot and instantly returned to Earth.

He then hurried back from the back mountain only to find Shanshan alone at home.

Zhao Guang tossed the camera into Shanshan’s arms, “Get the photos printed and send them to my camp.”

Having said that, Zhao Guang turned and left, leaving Shanshan in a whirlwind of confusion.

This matter, better inform the young lady; she couldn’t make such decisions on her own.

Back at the camp, Zhao Guang stepped into the Otherworld to find Xi Fei and the others.

There was no other way, since he only had one Anti-Magic Crystal; without it, he couldn’t drive.

It seemed he must complete his Basic Rune Studies quickly, or many things would become stalled.

Returning to Beigeli City, Zhao Guang spent a day making adjustments before they set off again.

This time, they headed straight for the map location.

According to the markings, they seemed unlikely to encounter any major cities along the way, just a few villages and towns to rest at.

There were many inns marked along the route, but just looking at the map didn’t reveal much.

“Let’s go, I’ll drive this time,” Ocoro said with renewed energy as they exited through the city gate.
