Chapter 516: Chapter 2: The Magical Librarian

Lucas University Library was revered as the Interstellar Encyclopedia.

It housed a vast array of documents, recording the history of the Silver Star Empire and the chronicles of major planets.

Beyond this, there were materials on various academic subjects, everything you could think of.

It also included records on the differences among the races of various planets, which could be found here.

Xu Mo had chosen to be a librarian partly for this reason, as the Lucas University Library allowed the fastest understanding of interstellar matters.

Coming from Byron Star, he knew next to nothing about interstellar matters. Byron Star, having been rebuilt, had too few resources and was considered interstellarly ignorant.

Xu Mo soon became familiar with the work at the Library. His workload was light, merely helping out with tasks. The Elder was responsible for lending books, while he was to reshelve the books students had browsed back to their original positions, which was easy since most students would return the books themselves, though it somewhat tested his memory.

He quickly became proficient in his duties, spending most of his time also reviewing the Library’s materials.

He first reviewed a brief history of Byron Star.

The records on Byron Star were very simple. The people of Byron had no special abilities, but their learning abilities were decent, and their adaptability was also acceptable. It was one of the Empire’s earliest human-inhabited planets, Planet Number Seven.

However, it had declined since then, no longer producing any great figures known throughout the interstellar area and gradually fading from collective memory.

Byron Star had experienced a war hundreds of years ago, invaded by Mandala Star.

There were also records on Mandala Star, a belligerent planet. In the era after the collapse of the Empire, Mandala Star had initiated wars against the surrounding star systems, forming the Mandala Army, expanding territories, plundering resources, sweeping through different areas, and establishing a mighty Mandala Star Domain, forming a coalition of planets that roamed the star system.

But due to Mandala Star’s violent conquests, many planets resisted, and the Star System Alliance was conceived in such an environment. Planets formed an alliance and began to resist, ultimately leading to the defeat and disintegration of the Mandala Star Domain, which withdrew from the controlled planets.

Afterward, Lucas Star rose. It was the initiating planet of the Star System Alliance. After defeating others, Lucas Star united a group of planets to establish the Star System Alliance, quelling the wars.

The alliance members of the Star System did not permit major wars between planets and established the Star System Covenant.

Over the centuries, Lucas Star, as the victor, continuously grew stronger and became very powerful.

The expansion of the Star System Alliance also deterred those warlike planets from easily launching aggressions against the members of the Alliance.

Reading this history made Xu Mo somewhat emotional.

So, Byron Star had nearly been wiped out by a branch force of Mandala Star, which was likely not even Mandala Star’s main army. Otherwise, Byron Star might have ceased to exist.

Mandala Star had launched interstellar wars, sweeping through various areas, and the warfront was inevitably stretched long.

This humiliating history seemed even more disgraceful than he had imagined, as those people who nearly wiped out Byron Star were not even the main army.

Now, Mandala Star still existed and remained very powerful, though they had ceased their external wars of expansion after their past defeat and began recuperating.

At the same time, Lucas Star, as the victor of the war, became the biggest winner of this conflict, securing a supreme position in the Star System Alliance and continuously developing and growing over the years.

Besides researching the history of Byron Star, Xu Mo had also read about the planets Lancelot Star, Camp Star, and Krusu Star, among others.

Lancelot Star had waged war against Byron Star, while the other major planets controlled fleets. Now, they could only develop underground bases in Steel Dome City, but a war was inevitable in the future.

“Excuse me, where can I find the historical materials on Carolan Star?” a female student asked Xu Mo, who had become familiar with the Library and gained a ‘reputation’ within a small circle over time.

“Third floor, Section B, third row, you look there,” Xu Mo responded without looking up.

“Thank you.” The woman didn’t mind Xu Mo’s impolite behavior and left with a smile. Lately, there had been rumors at Lucas University that the Library had a new librarian with an exceptionally good appearance and extraordinary memory, and that it was best to ask him directly for any materials needed.

Moreover, this librarian was quite proud and answered questions without even looking up, which appeared to be true now.

After the woman left, Xu Mo felt somewhat troubled. Recently, more and more people had been coming to ask him questions; these folks were too lazy to search for themselves.

Being frequently asked had naturally become annoying for Xu Mo; he had memorized various library sections to save time, giving him leisure to review various materials, but now, he was helping these students save time.

“Carolan Star!” Xu Mo searched his memory. That planet was formidable.

Throughout this period, Xu Mo had reviewed curious facts about numerous planets in the star system, which held countless planets with bizarre features, not just race talents but also different cultures and domains.

So, could that person be from Carolan Star?

After the woman obtained the books, she sat down on the first floor opposite a tall sexy woman dressed in a pale golden gown exuding a noble aura.

“Yekaterina,” the woman said, placing her books down and expressing excitement, “That guy really does have an extraordinary memory.”
