Chapter 085 Do You Remember How Many Pieces Of Bread You Have Eaten?
"Lin Xiao wants to apply for a professorship at Liandong University..."
Margaret sat behind the rosewood table with an incredible look in her eyes. She paused for a moment and then asked:
"Are you applying for the Lonicera Ace major, one of the top ten ancient languages majors in the world?"
The man in a suit nodded and said expressionlessly: "That's what he just told me."
Margaret gently rubbed her temples and sighed: "Lin Xiao just needs to escape a little, that's all.
Are you following him and being stupid, thinking that you can get the professorship of Lonicera by relying on the operation of the investigation team?"
Chu Yun's eyes moved slightly and he said in a strange tone: "He has no intention of relying on the background of the investigation team to enter Rendong University... but, instead, accepts the recruitment interview of Rendong University through normal channels."
This time it was Margaret's turn to be startled and let out a light sigh.
According to the raven,
Lin Xiao seems to really know ancient languages, and his level is not low.
A traveling card master with level five or above,
It's not surprising to master another skill at the same time.
After all, masters often study across fields.
But...applying to be a professor in the Department of Ancient Languages at Lonicera?
Margaret thought.
This is too sensational.
He must not be older than 20 years old. Regardless of his academic level, if he really becomes a professor at a top card master academy, he will make federal headlines the next day.
This is not conducive to investigating the demon case.
but……
If Lin Xiao really can become a teaching assistant or even a lecturer at Rendong University, I believe he will have more authority and be more able to investigate cases.
"I understand. The plan has been changed. Lin Xiao will not enroll as a 'new student'. Try to get a 'lecturer' status for him."
Margaret said resolutely: "How is his ancient language? Does he need to find someone to train him?"
"Just now, Sigrid gave Lin Xiao a graduate test paper from the Department of Ancient Languages.
The answers are all correct.”
Chu Yun muttered: "Of course, doing the questions is only one aspect.
Subsequent tests showed that
He has profound attainments in the field of ancient languages... I had underestimated him before."
"I see."
Margaret crossed her fingers,
He sighed a little: "Fifth-level master, ancient language scholar... With these two golden titles, he is a talent that is highly contested in any country..."
After completing A-level commissions twice in a row, he can completely refuse to participate in this operation.
After all, commissions involving demon gods are extremely risky, and other operators are afraid to avoid them.
But Lin Xiao seemed to be very keen on dealing with the demon incident.
Origin and promotion are of course objective factors, but after thinking about it, he also has his own rules of conduct...such as justice and responsibility.
"Humph, Raven, his ideas are quite similar to yours." Margaret lowered her head and smiled.
"Become a hero who saves the world."
In the third grade of elementary school, the teacher asked everyone about their ideals. The little boy answered excitedly, which made him burst into laughter.
Carrying a bench to greet the senior students who bullied their classmates, he stood in the Academic Affairs Office with a bruised face and a bruised face. His parents, who were not well educated, rubbed their hands and smiled flatteringly at the leaders.
On the way home, his father did not beat or scold Xiao Chuyun.
Instead, he carried him on his back, looked at the dusk and said: "No matter what, dad supports your idea!"
As an adult, Chu Yun fully understands how difficult it is to save the world, and the gap in reality cannot be filled with ideas.
"Save those who cannot fight."
On a rainy night, the captain of the sixth group stopped the ferocious deep divers and covered the evacuation of the seriously injured Chu Yun.
Chu Yun deeply felt his own weakness, and at the same time, he strengthened his ideas even more, burying them deeply between nicotine and smoke.
Until he accidentally came to the Card Master Association and recruited a new operator who could be called a "legendary level", and was later "rescued" by him in several missions.
"Is this Lin Xiao's philosophy..." Chu Yun murmured, "I can't see through that guy."
But at least, I feel very lucky to be able to partner with him.
"Me too." Margaret smiled.
Returning to Central Continent is only his short-term goal.
What about the longer term?
Gu Ji
Hidden beneath his appearance of independence and humility, he seemed arrogant and possessed the arrogance of a strong man.
Whether it was Lonicera University, the Demon God Altar or even the arrogant God hiding behind the scenes, he never paid attention to it.
A master traveler who masters the ancient language is bound to embark on a broader journey.
The knowledge buried in history from the medieval era to even the primitive era will be slowly unfolded through the key of 'ancient language'.
The Free Federation... was just the beginning of his journey.
Margaret crossed her fingers and said slowly:
"Then, the investigation team will prepare a letter of recommendation for Lin Xiao so that he can go to the faculty interview at Liandong University."
"Otherwise, no matter how strong his academic level is..." Margaret shrugged, "With his qualifications and background, he is not even qualified to enter the Lonicera Gate."
"I will hand it over." Chu Yun nodded.
Next, let’s look at Lin Xiao’s performance during the faculty interview.
…
Leave the investigation team and return to the rental house in Xiacheng District.
Dinner is relatively simple: stewed potatoes, canned beans, smoked sausage, and cream pudding.
Lin Xiao was enjoying the dessert when, as the end of the dinner, the lights above her head suddenly went out.
"Ah," Mrs. Smith said, "the neighborhood has said that there will be a power outage during the peak electricity consumption period in summer. Lin Xiao, go and take out the candles."
June is the peak season for electricity consumption in Xingtu City. Even if there is power, electricity is still an irreplaceable energy source, and the whole world is in energy shortage.
Therefore, every summer, Xingtu City adopts "limited power supply", and large-scale power outages often occur in Xiacheng District.
"No need to bother." A card appeared between Lin Xiao's fingers and a small amount of source power was injected into it.
In an instant, a flash of light illuminated the entire rental house, reflecting the old lady's confused face.
"This is called the "Flash Technique"." Lin Xiao explained, "It controls the brightness and can be used for lighting."
"Using cards and source power to illuminate... this is too luxurious." Mrs. Smith said in surprise.
Ordinary people can use Yuanli through "Yuanli Card", but "Yuanli Card" is expensive, so the price of "Yuanli" as an energy source is far higher than that of "electricity".
Lin Xiao said: "It's not extravagant. I can make up for this little bit of energy by eating some bread crumbs."
The old lady looked confused.
For Lin Xiao.
The source power consumption of manifesting the "Flash Technique" for one night is not as fast as the "blessing" spring water automatically replenishes it.
Not to mention, "Happiness Bread" can restore 30% of the upper limit of source power at one time.
A few bread crumbs are probably equal to the entire source power of a low-level card master...
Will you remember how many pieces of bread you have eaten·jpg
Lin Xiao wanted to try out the new epic-quality card-making pen tonight.
However, the lighting effect of the flash technique is not as practical as that of electric lights, and card making will be interfered with if the line of sight is affected.
Therefore, Lin Xiao and Dafu went out together, standing in the cool night, looking at the brightly lit Star Map Bridge on the other side of the river.
"Oh?" Dafu looked at the bridge, turned his head, and blinked.
Why is there no power outage there?
"Because that's not our home." Lin Xiao replied.
The night breeze in summer is pleasant, but the rental house is close to the river bank and there are many mosquitoes.
The gods who lived in the same medieval era as Mosquito have all fallen, but Mosquito is still alive and well until now... Being weak can still be regarded as a kind of strength.
Lin Xiao stretched and said, "Let's go back to sleep after leaving Dafu. We will get up early tomorrow. We have an important task."
