The knowledge that activated the paid cheat this time was neither magic nor beast taming techniques, but a drug formula called 'Insect Ripening Agent'.
"Ripening agent? Could it be..."
Su Mu raised his eyebrows, had a bad guess, and quickly checked the introduction of the medicine.
Although this potion has not been upgraded to perfection through krypton gold, and its efficacy is limited, the sentence in the introduction, "can ripen larvae and shorten the growth and reproduction periods" is enough for Su Mu to confirm his guess.
He was thinking quickly in his mind:
"The book spirits made it a mandatory task for students to clean up bookworms because recently, the library has been overrun with bookworms, catching them off guard and making them overwhelmed."
"Logically speaking, the library has been built for such a long time that all kinds of moisture-proof and insect-proof methods and spells are available. Even if a bookworm occasionally appears, the magic array and book spirits here can eliminate it in the first place. It is impossible for bookworms to become a disaster! Perhaps this insect ripening agent can explain some problems..."
"Perhaps the insect plague in the library was not an accident, but man-made! Someone secretly brought bookworms into the library and used special potions on them to shorten their reproduction cycle and enhance their hiding and adaptability. That's why the magic arrays and book spirits in the library were unable to find their traces until the insect plague broke out!"
Although we don't know who did this, it's not difficult to guess his purpose - to destroy the books in the library!
In the library of Qingcheng Mountain Cultivation University, in addition to ordinary cultivation books, there are also many precious classics and historical documents! If these books are destroyed, the consequences will be disastrous.
Although these were just Su Mu's guesses, he felt it necessary to report them to the school.
In everything, we should be prepared for the worst.
Even if this guess is wrong, it is for the good of the school and no one will blame him.
What's more, Wen Wubin is there to protect him.
Su Mu looked around and made sure that there was no one around, so he took out his cell phone, called Wen Wubin, and reported the situation at the library, as well as his findings and speculations.
After listening to this, Wen Wubin said, "You are indeed a good candidate for studying medicine. In the past few days in the library, there have been many students majoring in medicine who have accepted the book spirit's mission, but you are the only one who noticed that the bookworm was drugged!"
"The school has already discovered this situation?"
"certainly."
Wen Wubin did not hide it from him.
“Originally, this matter is confidential for the time being, but it’s okay to tell you, kid. After all, you definitely have nothing to do with this matter.
When the library was overrun with bookworms, we launched an investigation and found that all kinds of bookworms inside showed signs of being affected by the potion. Their growth and reproduction abilities were greatly enhanced, and they had also evolved to varying degrees. They were able to adapt to the library's insect-proof array and avoid detection and killing by the insect-control array, so they were able to become such a disaster!
Currently, the school has assigned professionals to form a special task force to investigate the matter, especially to find out where the mutated bookworms and the potions came from! In addition, the precious books and documents in the library have also been moved elsewhere for better storage. "
Qingcheng Mountain Cultivation University has Jiaotu and Xiongda in charge of security, as well as expert professors such as Wen Wubin, so the person who planted the insects and drugs is unlikely to sneak in from outside.
If you really have that ability, you can just destroy the library. Why do this kind of trick?
The most likely possibility is that there is either a spy inside the school, or there is someone with evil intentions among the recent visitors!
We must conduct a thorough investigation to uncover the masterminds and participants, otherwise there will be endless troubles!
Since the school had already made arrangements, Su Mu felt relieved and did not ask about the progress of the investigation so as not to embarrass Wen Wubin. He dropped the topic and after chatting for a few words, he hung up the phone.
Putting away his phone, Su Mu walked to a bookshelf and summoned the book spirit.
A moment later, a book spirit flew in front of him.
Seeing that the person who summoned was Su Mu, the book spirit was very enthusiastic: "Oh, my dear friend, it turned out that it was you who called me. You haven't been to the library for a while, how have you been recently?"
As he was speaking, an eye appeared on the cover of the book.
He looked Su Mu up and down until he saw the dried bookworm in his hand, then he revealed a hint of satisfaction.
Then, the book spirit said, "Thank you for helping us get rid of a bookworm. What books do you want to borrow this time?"
Su Mu saw all of the book spirit's actions.
He couldn't help but secretly complain: "How dare you call me your respected good friend? I came to the library, just like everyone else, I have to complete the mandatory tasks before I can see you. And judging from your reaction just now, if I didn't have the body of this bookworm in my hand, you would probably ignore me, right? Is this the way to treat a respected good friend? Hatui, you scumbag!"
Of course, Su Mu would not say these words out loud. After all, he still had to rely on the book spirit to help him find books from the vast sea of books.
He smiled and said, "Dear book spirit, I am also very happy to see you again. This time I came here, I want to borrow these books: "The Essence of Qi", "Mathematical Methods", "Transformation and Utilization of Spiritual Qi"..."
Su Mu talked about the books one by one that were needed to break through the Toad Fishing and Swallowing Air Method.
After listening to this, the book spirit immediately recited a spell, and then books appeared, like butterflies, flying out from the bookshelves and coming in front of Su Mu.
After checking that everything was correct, Su Mu put all the books into his space bracelet and was about to say goodbye and leave.
Unexpectedly, the book spirit tried to persuade him to stay.
"Please wait a moment, our respected friend!"
"Why, do you need my help?"
Su Mu stopped and turned around.
The book spirit said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, we have a question and would like to ask you for advice."
Su Mu said: "It's my honor. Tell me, what's the problem?"
"It's like this. Ever since the library was plagued by bookworms, we have issued relevant tasks. At the beginning, no one took this task, so we had no choice but to set it as a time-limited task that must be completed before entering the library. Now, the task volume has increased, but all the students who do this task are not satisfied. Some have even complained to the school, which makes us very distressed."
"We don't understand. They are all the same tasks. Why are students not satisfied with the tasks we issued and are complaining? Did we do something wrong?"
The book spirit looked at Su Mu with an expression that said "we are very wronged", and it was obvious that he really didn't know what they had done wrong.
Su Mu sighed: "You did make a mistake. Not only that, but it was a big mistake!"
