Chapter 1624: Chapter 1622: Library

School of Physics.

Inside the Laboratory of Space and Astronomy Research,

Pope is conducting a solo Void experiment,

carefully extracting each "Regular Dodecahedron Miniature Void Crystal" refined over half a month.

This process requires full concentration, with at least five minutes needed to extract each crystal.

As Pope focuses on collecting items,

some sounds vaguely drift through the external corridor.

In fact,

due to the soundproof design of the lab, external sounds should be inaudible.

However, Pope, being in a state of mental concentration, has his sensory perceptions magnified several times, allowing him to vaguely hear through soundproofing.

This situation occurs frequently,

with Pope’s brain structure allowing him to easily shield out language information.

But this time is different.

As Pope intends to shield the sounds, he unexpectedly hears two keywords - [Nicholas], and his own name [Pope].

Even though the task at hand is crucial, Pope finds it difficult to ignore.

[Starfield Brain]

The originally independently rotating main galaxy has been split into a "Large Galaxy" and a "Small Galaxy,"

90% focused on the current experiment

10% used to eavesdrop on the outside conversation

"Doesn’t Professor Pope know someone is waiting for him downstairs?"

"He should know, after all, this matter has spread completely through the School of Physics... Nicholas Associate Professor has been waiting downstairs for more than two hours."

"I’ve heard, their relationship doesn’t seem to be very good."

"That can’t be, last time I heard someone saw them dining together in the cafeteria, and they seemed to have a pretty good relationship."

"Is it that Professor Pope deliberately put on a show, wanting the other party to wait downstairs a bit longer?"

"Very likely,

after all, Associate Professor Nicholas won the final victory in the [London Game], slightly overshadowing Pope.

Yet, the rank of Professor is one level higher than Associate Professor; it’s probably for this reason that he intentionally didn’t go down."

At this moment.

A violent electromagnetic explosion sounded from the laboratory, as if some unstable spatial material unexpectedly detonated.

Two researchers thought a serious experimental accident had occurred and were about to rush in to check.

With a stiff expression, Pope walked out.

"Professor Pope! Are you okay?"

Though the two researchers were much older than Pope, their words were filled with absolute respect, even reverence.

After all, the [Professor Title] carries heavy weight, and Pope is also quite prestigious in the School of Physics.

"During the extraction of Void Crystals, some accident occurred; one of the parameters deviated, causing a small-scale spatial explosion, but I’ve controlled the situation."

"That’s good... since you’re okay, we’ll leave."

The two researchers naturally sensed something and hurriedly hurried away.

Pope turned to look at the messy laboratory and immediately contacted the ’clean-up team’ to come and handle it.

Since the experiment was forced to stop and a restart would require half a month’s refinement, it’s definitely not feasible now.

Alongside the widespread words in the School of Physics, Pope could only walk downstairs with a stern face.

However, outside the main building.

The expected long-waiting Han Dong was instead happily taking photos with a group of students, shining a very happy smile.

"Hey! Didn’t I ask you to contact me directly through Void Signal if there was anything?"

Han Dong smiled and replied:

"Oh~ After all, I’m a researcher myself, I really dislike being disturbed suddenly during experiments.

Considering you might also be in a crucial phase, Pope, I just waited downstairs; I’m pretty free today... are you done?"

"I just heard you had been waiting downstairs for a long time, so I took a moment to come down and check.

Tell me, what’s the matter? If it’s not something important, I’ll go back up."

"Didn’t I just get promoted to Associate Professor? I want to visit the library tonight, do you have time, Pope?"

"Can’t you go by yourself? The library is equipped with a smart guide system; with your intellect, you shouldn’t have a hard time figuring it out, right?"

"No... My new course was accepted by Mi University, so I received a ’High Contribution’, and I want to borrow the principal’s written [Demon Book].

It’s also a book related to the Void.

I’m quite a novice regarding the Void, and along with unfamiliarity with the library, I hope to get your help, Pope."

Pope originally planned to outright refuse.

However, with Han Dong surrounded by a group of photo-taking students, their conversation was being heard crystal clear.

Moreover, they knew Han Dong had been waiting downstairs for more than two hours due to this matter.

Pope did his best to calm his mood, pretending to respond in a normal tone:

"Hmm... I happen to have a project concluding today, freeing up some time, so I’ll reluctantly accompany you once.

However, I don’t want to spend too much time, at most an hour."

"Okay!"

As a semi-transparent starfield hand touched Han Dong’s shoulder, both were immediately swept into the Void.

As star gleams flashed before their eyes,

Pope utilized his authority as a Professor and Void methods to bypass the ’barrier’, arriving at a pure black locked space... Mi University’s library is separately set within it, hidden in the deep layer of the Mi University campus.

Firstly creating an absolutely quiet environment,

secondly ensuring library safety; considering the book value here, calculating equivalently, one could possibly purchase the rights of many worlds from the Black Tower.

"Were you intentional, Nicholas?"

Han Dong responded awkwardly, "Otherwise, Pope would definitely reject the library guide request... But I truly want to seek your advice on knowledge related to the [Void].

As a return, if you’re interested in the Black Tower and the Multiverse, Pope, you can ask me for related materials anytime."

"One hour, just this once."

"Alright... is this an Independent Space?"

"This was personally created by the [teacher], connected to Mi University, but absolutely independent, hidden in the deepest Independent Space, ensuring the library’s safety."

"No wonder there’s no marking on the campus map, and no direct transport can be seen."

"In general, if you want to go to the library, you need to submit an application at the academic office, and then the special transmission device will take you here."

Led by Pope.

Soon arriving at the library’s ’Rooted’ area, the building’s overall design is beyond imagination yet rational.

A living brain reaching a kilometer spec with horn-like tentacles growing on the surface,

alongside numerous "Modified Migo" circling the exterior, constantly cleaning oddities from the brain surface or tuning abnormal neural circuits.

*These Migo heads are encased in liquid-filled glass jars to stabilize their brain states, focusing on their work without memorizing anything library-related.

The main entrance to the library is located at the frontal lobe.

However, when Han Dong steps into the library,

he steps onto bright, hard, white tiles,

with the view transforming into a more common human world library hall, though more spacious, nearly endless to the eye.

Pope simply explains:

"This place will map out a corresponding image based on your basic concept of ’library’ between your brain.

Similar to Mi University’s campus ’Prism Effect’, yet here it’s even more realistic, providing each visitor the best reading experience.

Follow me, the upper floor is in a deeper location, requiring a walk."
