Chapter 288 Stealers of wealth, country, and civilization

The city of Algias is not only the capital of the lords, but also the location of the largest library in the lords kingdom.

The city of Algias gathers all the academic and theological elites of the world of the kowtows.

Barbatos Ab stood under the vast library. In the eyes of Pan Yang people, the value in this library exceeded that of many lands.

This library brings together works such as alchemy, theology, mechanics, architecture, art, rhetoric and philosophy in the kingdom of the gnolls, and it is all available. However, the contemporary wolf-headed king who built this large library seems to only want to use it as a tool for his achievements and show off. This way of collecting works is often destructive.

The jackal prince beside him vigorously introduced their magnificent library and explained the history of the library.

"My father, the greatest king here, built this building, and he used rare treasures to build this luxurious library."

"Saving the books here requires a huge amount of money, and it consumes a huge amount of money every moment. Only a powerful dynasty like ours can have such wealth, and even the gods have to lose their lust for the wealth here."

Prince Jackal boasted: "All the knowledge is now in the hands of our royal family."

"But, do you really want to trade a thousand silks for twenty thousand copies of the library?"

Barbatos looked at him and showed a puzzled look.

The Jackal Prince invited him into the library. The director of the library was an old dog-headed man, but when the royal family came in person, the elderly dog-headed man had to kneel in front of the prince, kiss the rocky ground, and thank the royal family.

The Jackal Prince didn't look at him. "Friend, I think you lost money on such a deal."

"There are only piles of old paper here, the most valuable and indeed valuable part is in the building itself, not the contents inside the building."

They collect books from all over the world just to show authority, which does not mean that the royal family really attaches importance to knowledge.

Barbatos gave a weird smile, meaningful, and of course meaningful.

He gave the Jackal Prince a ritual. "Dear Your Highness, is it worth it to be our Oasis' judgment. Now Oasis only wants to trade with you a copy of twenty thousand books, using a thousand silk pieces... What do you think?"

"Of course, my dear friend." Prince Jackal gave Barbatos a hug.

"My dear friend, I heard that you are now also the master of one of the seven oasis, and you have a perfect equal status with me."

The two of them walked into the interior of the large library under the escorts of a large number of guards. The people who were borrowing books inside the library saw the prince enter and all knelt on the ground one by one, and some even wanted to stick to the ground to show the prince their charming words.

Prince Jackal looked at the attitude of the most prestigious scholars in the kingdom with satisfaction towards him.

But Barbatos was shocked by the number of books in this huge library.

Rows of books were placed on the bookshelf, some were thick and some were thin, and there were a wide variety of books, which made Barbatos awe.

Barbatos glanced at the proud Prince of Jackal. Prince of Jackal might think that others' respect and magnificent architecture could bring him majesty, but it was not.

What is truly worthy of your respect is the things inside the library.

This is the crystallization of knowledge in the kobold society over the past thousand years.

However, the brain of the owner of this library is not the crystallization of the koji society for thousands of years. The brain of the owner of this library is the essence of the cancer of the koji society for thousands of years.

Therefore, such an important core can only be exchanged for two hundred pieces of silk.

Barbatos all has a ridiculous illusion.

Prince Jackal pointed to the left and said, "Here are books on alchemy, books on philosophy, history and rhetoric on the right. The rows behind are books on architecture and mechanics, and the last rows are books on economics. These books are available for you to choose from, but the books on the shelves made of precious wood are religious books. These books are the most precious wealth of our society. You cannot take any of them."

Prince Jackal seemed afraid of Babatos' misunderstanding, and he explained: "This is not my intention, my friend."

"But our high priest is an old stubborn."

"The high priest thinks that you Panyang tribe is heresy and resists passing our religion to heresy and barbarians, so..."

"He refused to borrow these books."

"It's a pity that he happened to be disliked by me all the time, and I couldn't speak from him. Sorry, my friend."

The high priest of the dog-headed man has always supported the second prince, while the high wolf-headed king, the master of this land, likes his younger son the most.

Prince Jackal was born to the queen. Like Princess Aldell, he is the queen's direct lineage, so he is the eldest prince.

The Jackal Prince secretly instilled in the idea that the high priests were hostile to them, and that they wanted to tie the Pan Yang people to his camp.

The scholars on the side saw the prince's attitude towards this strange-looking sheep man, and instantly regarded Babatos Abu as a noble man in their hearts. They must find an opportunity to make friends and talk later.

Barbatos nodded to Prince Jackal, but he didn't agree.

Haha... I was not interested in your religious books, but there was a stupid dog-headed man who thought we still wanted to covet your religious books.

"A hundred woodworking craftsmanship?" Barbatos walked to the bookshelf and said to a kowtowish scholar: "Give me one of this copy."

The scholar immediately took the book and followed Babatos respectfully.

This made Barbatos frown.

The strong alliance after the deep combination of royal power and theocracy in the kowtower society is too powerful in spiritual slavery. The royal family can command anyone at any time and will not regard people as human beings at all.

Barbatos pointed to the third row of the bookshelf. "Give me a copy of the change in the flame color of that flame."

"Give me a copy of the herbs from the Delta..."

"Give me a book of the art history of the board sculpture..."

"Give me a book of the origin of that plaid painting..."

"Give me a book of rhetoric..."

"Give me one of theological arguments in the philosophical sense..."

Seeing my friends patiently selecting books here, the Jackal Prince was not patient to accompany him.

He greeted Babatos and left the place directly. Before leaving, all the scholars here lay on the ground to salute him.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the Jackal Prince does not value knowledge. After all, these so-called scholars are just servile servants in front of him, so how could he respect knowledge?

Babatos turned around and saw the Jackal Prince leaving. He suddenly turned around and stared at the Jackal Prince, with a greedy and cunning smile on the corner of his mouth.

This business is worth the price at the textbook level.

Who would have thought that someone could use two hundred pieces of silk to buy someone else’s entire civilization!
