After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 688

Anyway, all around the library were exclamations of wonder and glee. This was especially true to the Terrans who frankly thought they would never see a library again—or be so happy to be in one, for that matter—especially not so soon and not with such a big selection!

With this, they could retain a lot of the knowledge studied for thousands of years back in Terran. They didn’t have to start from scratch anymore. Instead, they could build over what was already known, to find more knowledge, to find something more to improve their lives with!

"Holy Crow—" Dog exclaimed, raising a book. "It’s my favorite novel!"

He had learned a lot about warfare here. It was usually a boring and dark topic, but it was told in a way that was super fun. He didn’t read a lot of books, and this was one of the handful. How nostalgic!

"Be quiet!" Sunny said, pinching his cheek. "You’re the type always being glared at by librarians right?"

"You’re the type loved by them, right?"

"Of course!" she said proudly. Crow beside them only shook his head, just perusing the library at his own pace.

Such massive amounts of knowledge were accessible at one’s fingertips. It was something very difficult to believe.

While Althea watched the library being used with smiles, some people couldn’t help but gather their shamelessness and surround her. When her husband wasn’t there, Althea was much more approachable so they were planning to make the most of it.

"So many books~ are papers and pencils finally available, Miss Althea?" they asked. They had known the sets had been available for a while now, just not commercially available yet.

Oh, the things they could do with it!!

Althea smiled at their curiosity and nodded. "Yes. Papers, pens, and pencils would finally be commercially available within the week."

"YES!"

"FINALLY!"

"HUSH! Quiet! Don’t you know this is a library?"

"Oh right sorry."

Althea giggled, looking at them with a slight seriousness on her face. "We’re looking forward to what everyone creates with these new resources," she told them.

A few of the people around looked at her with confidence, minds already brewing with endless ideas. It helped that there were so many books here that inspired them.

"You won’t be disappointed, Miss Althea!"

And she indeed won’t.

…

The library was extremely impactful, even more so than Althea and the others thought. After all, they knew it could be enlightening for some, but the Library was primarily built to handle information and knowledge within the territory.

They didn’t expect that it’d have a lot of worldview impact even on the adult aborigines.

When Olga returned home not long after this, she would definitely bring about a change among women in their class, and it would trickle down until the commoner class would feel it.

Other than the Golds and the hired aborigines, there were also the aborigine members of Terran Mercenary team, particularly the first batch of arrivals.
