Vlad's eyes sparkled with keen excitement. Although thoroughly analyzing and deciphering all the Champion-Tier tomes on these shelves would take hours—even for his A.I. Chip—simply copying their contents took only a few seconds per shelf.
A wide grin spread across his face as he removed his hand from the first shelf and saw how drastically his database had grown. Pausing only to confirm that his covert method was still undetected, he moved on to the next shelf.
One by one, he moved his palm through the protective runic barrier of each shelf, reaching the books inside and allowing the A.I. Chip to scan them. The scanning function captured every page of every tome, storing knowledge that could be dissected later. In less than fifteen minutes, Vlad made a complete circuit of the Champion Level section, leaving no shelf unexamined.
