Elder Huang took out this book basket to help Chen Qiyue cover up the number of books he had borrowed.
After receiving the book basket from Chen Qiyue, Elder Huang began to help him register the books.
“Are you just going to borrow these books?” Elder Huang looked at Chen Qiyue. “I’ve seen your reading speed. You’ll read the most basic evolution and advancement knowledge here very quickly.”
“Because some of that knowledge can be deduced by you. After all, it’s the most basic knowledge.”
“Later on, your reading speed will slow down because you need to think and practice.”
“So I suggest you borrow more in the early stages and take them back. Even if you don’t finish reading them, you can read them the next day.”
“If you don’t borrow enough, it will be a waste of time at night.”
Elder Huang had actually contacted Chen Qiyue’s teacher, Pingyu Lan. He knew that Chen Qiyue had received the second mission, which required him to finish reading the books in Library No. 9 in the shortest time possible.
Pingyu Lan had also told Elder Huang to help his disciple if possible. After all, he was his last disciple.
Firstly, Elder Huang had helped Chen Qiyue because of Pingyu Lan’s request. Secondly, he naturally wanted to see how far this kid could go.
Hearing Elder Huangs words, Chen Qiyue nodded and felt that it made sense.
He put away the borrowed books and returned to the bookshelf with the book basket. He took out another 50 books from each area and filled the book basket to take them back.
Elder Huang could not help but laugh when he saw the bookshelf full. He had only mentioned it, but he did not expect this kid to borrow so many again.
He wondered if this kid could read so many books in one night.
It was a pity that he could not see him reading with his own eyes.
Elder Huang helped Chen Qiyue borrow all the books. When he saw Chen Qiyue waving at him and leaving, his eyes were filled with anticipation.
He hoped that this kid could give him and Pingyu Lan another surprise.
There were 160 books lying quietly in Chen Qiyue’s storage ring, which was the most he had borrowed so far.
Back in the living room, Chen Qiyue picked a book called “The Advancement of
Fantastic Beasts (Part One)” and started reading it.
It was a series. There were ten books in this series. He borrowed them all.
Chen Qiyue was slightly stunned when he flipped to the first page.
As Elder Huang had said, the knowledge here could be deduced from the knowledge he had learned previously.
Or rather, he knew all this knowledge.
Chen Qiyue quickly flipped through it. In just a few minutes, he had finished reading the book.
He closed his eyes and spent two minutes recalling the contents of the book. After making sure that he had not missed anything, he opened the second book in the series.
He flipped through the next few books very quickly. In total, it only took him half an hour.
However, the more he read, the slower his reading speed became.
When he read the ninth book, a book took him half an hour.
By the time he reached the tenth book) it had taken him an hour.
Although he was still reading very quickly, it indirectly meant that Elder Huang was right.
Just from this series of books, it could be seen that the content here was turning from shallow to deep and needed to be thought about.
He had to combine the contents of the last two books with the knowledge he had seen in Library No. 10 to understand them completely.
Chen Qiyue finally understood why his teacher asked him to finish reading the books in Library No. 10 first.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Qiyue didn’t stop. He picked another advancement book to read.
Between 8 a.m. and 12 a.m., a total of four hours, he read twenty books.
From afternoon to 8 p.m., eight hours, he read 40 books.
At this moment, Chen Qiyue had already finished reading the 60 books he had borrowed for the first time.
He was extremely glad that he had borrowed a lot of books after listening to Elder Huang’s instructions. Otherwise, he would not have any books to read at 8 am.
Chen Qiyue rubbed his eyebrows and ate some bread with water before continuing to read.
This time, he was reading evolutionary books.
Evolution was a little harder than advancement, but in terms of the most basic knowledge, it was faster to read than advancement books.
This was because he only needed to memorize the basic knowledge.
Chen Qiyue only needed to take a look at one page. It was like a camera scanning the entire page and he could record all the content in his mind.
It was not just the words, but the pictures as well.
If Chen Qiyue had not needed to think and reorganize the information, a book would only take a few minutes to be completely memorized by him.
He felt that his brain seemed to be different from before.
The words and pictures converged in his mind, quickly integrating. He was completely integrating and absorbing them.
The more he read, the stronger Chen Qiyue’s feeling became.
In the four hours between 8 pm and 12 pm, Chen Qiyue actually broke the previous record and read nearly 40 books. On average, he only spent six minutes per book.
By the time he finished the last book, it was already past 12 a.m.
Chen Qiyue decisively washed his face, brushed his teeth, and went to bed.
When he closed his eyes, he fell into a deep sleep in less than ten seconds. However, at this moment, his brain did not stop working. Instead, it became even more active.
The content he had read during the day began to intertwine, forming his dream.
In the dream, Chen Qiyue looked back at the knowledge he had seen and thought about the deeper meaning.
The next day, Chen Qiyue returned the 100 books and borrowed another 100 books.
Elder Huang looked at Chen Qiyue in shock when he saw the books.
He did not expect this kid to read 100 books yesterday!
That’s terrifying. Did he not sleep all night?
Or could it be that after reading those books, he did not remember them?
However, based on Elder Huang’s previous understanding of Chen Qiyue, it shouldn’t be possible.
However, was 100 books a day really something a human could do?
It had to be known that just flipping through those books quickly would take an entire day.
At this speed, could he really finish reading the contents of the book and remember it?
Elder Huang kept sizing up Chen Qiyue, who was choosing books on the bookshelf, with shock in his eyes.
This kid was indeed not a normal human.
Chen Qiyue woke up at 7 a.m. every day. At 7:30 a.m., he appeared in the library to choose books. At 8 a.m., he returned to his living room on time and started reading.
Because he woke up early, there was no one in the library now.
‘Elder Huang, thank you. Otherwise, I would have no books to read yesterday.”
Chen Qiyue thanked Elder Huang as he took the books and asked him to help with the borrowing procedures.
“You’re welcome.” Elder Huang quickly completed the borrowing procedures and looked at Chen Qiyue strangely. “By the way, are you an alien? Or an Al?” “What?” Chen Qiyue was stunned.
What the hell were aliens and Al?
However, he immediately recalled the special feeling he had when he was reading, and his eyes flickered.
“Elder Huang, are you joking?” Chen Qiyue said with a smile, “At most, my parents nurtured me well and my brain is better developed.”
“Actually…” Chen Qiyue quietly approached Elder Huang and said in a low and mysterious voice.
“Yes, what?” Elder Huang immediately leaned forward and listened.
“In fact, this happened when I was young. I only needed to take a few glances to memorize the contents of a book. This is my talent, photographic memory.”
Chen Qiyue explained his special situation in a low voice, but he was talking about his previous situation.
Now, he knew that he had gone too far. He had to give an explanation. Otherwise, if others really thought that he was an alien, it would be troublesome.
“A photographic memory!” Elder Huang was shocked. His eyes were shining as he looked at Chen Qiyue.
No wonder this kid read so quickly and could remember the contents. He actually had a photographic memory!
This was a divine skill on the Feeder!
Elder Huang patted Chen Qiyues shoulder forcefully and said excitedly, “Good kid, you’re amazing. Do you want to acknowledge me as your master too? I’ll definitely teach you everything I have!”
Chen Qiyue did not know whether to laugh or cry. He thought that Elder Huang would say something, but he did not expect him to poach his teacher.
“No, Elder Huang, I already have a teacher. You know, it’s Elder Ping.”
Elder Huang chuckled and patted Chen Qiyue’s shoulder.
“There’s no rule that you can only acknowledge one teacher.. Isn’t it good to acknowledge another teacher and have another one to teach you?
