The Game of Global Mining-Chapter 420 - 330: Siren Comes to the Rescue

According to Chun’s understanding, just relying on reading these books that cost money to learn, maybe at Advanced 10 it’s the ceiling, but to push towards Expert, you might need some exclusive materials or even look for artifacts yourself.

But there’s no rush now. Since I can read books without suspicion, it’s time to go through every book in the library with mutual reinforcement! This is the library of the Golden Divine Throne, incomparable to the Five Great Cities!

At this time, Michael appeared: "Everyone, today’s festival is quite fulfilling, let’s go to the tavern to eat."

The group of clowns joyfully swarmed out: "Thank you, Sage Lord!"

Michael went to Ugly Emperor’s side and asked with concern: "How do you feel?"

The Ugly Emperor, moved, said: "I feel like I’ve wasted my life until I read the books and understood some principles. Although it’s just an event, it’s like a light... Thank you, Sage Lord!"

Michael laughed: "It’s not just an event, and not just a light. If you like reading, you can always read; this VIP membership card of the library is for you! You can read at any time, even stay in the library’s VIP room to read, and enjoy the grand view of the Void. There will be maids to serve your meals and there are freely available showers!"

Looking at the dazzling membership card handed over by Michael, akin to a Divine Artifact, the Ugly Emperor was so shocked he trembled and couldn’t speak: "I, I..."

Chun was even more amazed, realizing that the big shot doesn’t even need to pay, this is the power of privileges!

Michael forcibly placed the card into the hands of the Ugly Emperor: "Take it!"

The Ugly Emperor, excited, said: "Sage Lord, can I skip the tavern meal? I regret wasting decades of my life! I want to start living in the library now!"

Michael laughed: "Alright, but remember to rest too, sir!"

Chun, in his delight, couldn’t help but feel his scalp numb, should I also be diligently accompanying the reading? This truly is... Ultimately, it’s because Earth Lotus is illiterate!

After Michael left, the Ugly Emperor happily took the few unread volumes and found the VIP room, where a maid was already waiting at the door: "Welcome, esteemed guest. Would you like dinner?"

The Ugly Emperor cleared his throat: "The cheapest will be fine."

The maid smiled: "Alright, sir, the milk and bread dinner will be delivered shortly."

The Ugly Emperor entered the VIP room; the scene switched, revealing a luxurious room several times larger than it looked from the outside, with one wall made of large glass, offering a panoramic view of Earth.

But Chun was concerned - is there surveillance here?

The Ugly Emperor looked around again and saw the latest newspapers on the rack. Upon closer inspection, there was unexpectedly a report of the clowns reading at the library, taken that afternoon.

Truly a game; the efficiency of this newspaper is high!

The Ugly Emperor went to the desk. Although there were paper and pen, he still pulled out a magic trick pen and wrote on the newspaper: "No eyes."

Holy Shit! Even if you think there’s no surveillance, you don’t dare talk or use the other’s paper and pen! Well, this level of caution is just like Eve pretending to sleep in the bedroom, worthy of a big shot in the underworld.

When the Ugly Emperor again covered his face with the newspaper, Chun seized the chance to type: "Better be safe!"

The Ugly Emperor laughed, shaking the newspaper, and the words he had written disappeared.

Holy Shit, that’s quite a magic trick pen.

Chun talked business: "When you have time, go to the library to see if there are any math experts."

The Ugly Emperor wrote: "Okay!"

Then wrote again: "Can you keep up with the reading progress just now?"

"I can!"

The Ugly Emperor wrote: "Then I’ll speed up, read three books! Shake if you can’t keep up!"

So this is the strength of the former Guardian God! But I’ve managed to pull an all-nighter intermittently, can I keep up?

The next moment, the doorbell rang, and the maid’s voice came: "Honorable sir, your meal..."

The Ugly Emperor drank the milk in one go, then spread out three books, and got started!

Chun felt his scalp tingling but had to rise to the challenge, yet the Ugly Emperor was suddenly stunned, as these were all images of ancient relics, full of ancient text!

Holy Shit! There are no dictionaries as a reference, so this is the expert level advancement?

Earth Lotus, however, spoke up: "I seem to recognize some!"

Chun was surprised: "Runes?"

Earth Lotus said: "Not runes, but similar in energy flow to runes..."

Chun didn’t care much, just felt relieved instantly: "How about you teach the Ugly Emperor to recognize characters. Let’s pause on the drilling side for now."

"I’ll try..."

...

Michael happily left the library. Compared to getting nothing from astrology, discovering a talent as incredible as the clowns was the biggest gain.

Michael actually wasn’t interested in continuing to accompany that bunch to the tavern for dinner, but they all did it for show, and he had to do the same, and meet the mentor; if not, he would find Hubble to change his materials again.

Just then, Sariel came with a message: "Boss, bad news, a cargo ship from Silver City suddenly disappeared, lost contact!"

Michael was startled: "The Siren appeared again?"

Sariel sounded panicked: "Judging by the situation, it’s just like last time when the ship was intercepted!"

Michael really felt troubled: "Is the Mermaid the only one who can return to Silver City?"

Sariel was also troubled: "The Mermaid is consolidating the base in Black Iron City!"

Michael had no choice but to say: "Then just block the news, as long as the public doesn’t find out."

Sariel angrily said: "It must be Chun colluding with the Sea Demon pirates, I won’t let him go! I’ll catch several pirates alive, let them accuse Chun, convict him, and lock him up for years!"

Michael said: "Focus on defending the prison first."

Sariel suddenly was shocked: "The barrier around the prison seems to be hit by a powerful sound wave impact!"

Michael said: "If necessary, transfer Chun’s cell!"

"Understood!"

...

Just as Chun was preparing to get a good sleep, the familiar and long-missed Black Flag Order alert sound came from his large number; startled, he switched over to check:

— Black Flag Order alert: Warning! Siren of Black Flag Island’s Guardian God secretly plundered Silver City’s ore ship "Silver Baron Hagen" through hypnosis. Once the news is released, you will bear unpredictable major responsibility.

— Black Flag Order alert: You have received a communication message from the Commerce Guardian God, Siren.

Siren!!!

Holy Shit! Though it’s only been a few days, this sudden move, this move...

Chun excitedly answered: "I’m here!"

Siren’s voice was a little unclear: "I’m here to rescue you! Your prison is really tough; I had to use an Echo Matrix to talk to you..."

Echo Matrix? It’s the Sea Race building made from collected shells Siren mentioned before!

Chun, touched, was anxious: "No, getting jailed is part of my plan! Don’t venture to save me!"

Siren laughed: "Alright, I’m just asking fakely, since there’s no risk, I’ll just take it easy. Talking is tiring, so I won’t say more, just watch for my messages."

— Black Flag Order alert: Communication with Commerce Guardian God Siren interrupted.

Eh... Watch your continuous plundering messages?

Too bad the prison limits conversation, otherwise I really want to ask Old Turtle how things have been developing on Evil Spirit Island these days.
