Chapter 993: How Many People Are There!?

The amount of breakfast is not big or small, and the taste is very good, but this kind of thing is that some people like and some people don't like it, but because there are many things, everyone doesn't care.

Those who don't like soy milk can eat tofu brain, and those who don't like tofu brain can also eat wontons, plus steaming xiaolongbao, which can be regarded as a group of mages to enjoy eating.

"It's weird food, weird cutlery."

Putting down the chopsticks in her hand, Mary couldn't help but sigh. Their meals are also hearty in the White Tower, but in the morning most of them are breaded eggs with ham and fresh soup. Of course, many mages don't care much about food and drink, and they are the kind that can fill their stomachs.

That's why the girls were able to eat all the food that seemed strange to them, anyway......... They've eaten even the most bizarre things.

Not to mention that it tastes pretty good.

But what makes everyone more curious is the tableware used here, there is no knife and fork they are used to using, but only two slender sticks for one person, the beautiful name is "chopsticks", at first everyone has not used this kind of tableware, there are some jokes, but the mage is the mage, and soon they are familiar with the use of chopsticks, and enjoy it.

"But it's really interesting."

As she spoke, Anne waved her wrist and lightly picked up a bun.

"You see, it's simple and convenient, but it contains very complex principles......... And all this can be done with just two slender round sticks, and I have decided to eat with this thing in the future! ”

"But you can't cut a steak with this."

Delian pointed out the problem point, but Anne pouted.

"It's okay, I don't eat steak anyway, I'll get fat if I eat too much......... Aren't you afraid? ”

"It's okay, I'm the type who doesn't get fat no matter how much I eat."

“…………………”

If it weren't for the fact that this was a public place, and the mages claimed to be civilized, they would have flipped the table on the spot.

Overall, the meal was relatively pleasant, and everyone got acquainted with each other a lot, and they all felt that it was easier to get along with each other. This is also a matter of course, after all, Fang Zheng was the person he was looking for according to the search of "The Confession", and he was looking for teachers who were very suitable for getting along with children and would not lead them astray, not careerists who tried to prove their abilities here, or had ulterior motives.

Because of this, Mary and the others have a good relationship with each other, and after eating a meal, they also talked and laughed to enhance a lot of friendship, and Delian even stated that in order to celebrate, she would pay for this meal.

It's just that to the surprise of the girls, when it comes to checking out, they encounter some small troubles.

"Sorry, we don't take money."

Looking at the gold coins that Delian put on the counter, the little maid at the head was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly shook her head. Hearing the little maid's answer, Mary and the others were also surprised.

"Don't charge coins? So how do you check out? ”

"Just pay the points, a total of twenty-five ........."

"Point ???"

Listening to the little maid's explanation, everyone looked at each other, completely unaware of what the other party was talking about. But soon, the little maid gave the answer.

"You should have a personal terminal, just open the interface, open the above 'payment' program, and scan the number here."

Does the personal terminal still have this kind of function?

Hearing this, Mary and the others were also curious to open their personal terminals, and sure enough, they found the number "5000" in the upper right corner of the interface, and Delian swiped it on it according to the little maid's instructions, and sure enough, they saw that the original number instantly fell to "4975".

"It's amazing........."

Looking at the scene in front of her, Jessica also sighed, but at this time, Delian seemed to think of something, and suddenly her face changed.

"Wait, you mean to say that in the Heavenly Dao Palace, everything is settled by this point?"

"Yes."

"If I want to eat, buy clothes, or buy anything, I have to deduct points?"

"Yes."

"That......... How do I earn these points? ”

Hearing this, not only Delian was dumbfounded, but even Mary was dumbfounded. If it's a matter of money, then they don't have to worry about it, but the problem is that the Heavenly Dao Palace doesn't have coins in circulation, so they have to spend a lot of money to buy things and eat......... But that's only 5,000 points!

"Every month, each person will be given a fixed amount of guaranteed points, which is enough to cover living expenses, and the rest......... It depends on the tasks you complete, and Brother Fang Zheng will occasionally send some commissions, and if you are lucky enough to receive and complete them, you can also get a part of the points. ”

Mission......... Task......... Ah, I found it! ”

Soon, following the little maid's instructions, Mary found the task progress bar in her personal terminal.

"Enrollment of 50 students with an additional subsidy of 50 points per month, and enrollment of 100 students with an additional subsidy of 100 points per month. The higher the percentage of apprentices who pass the assessment and become regular mages, the higher the bonus points will be........."

As she read it, Mary suddenly felt as if something was not quite right.

It's true that she's here to teach, and it's not wrong for a mage to accept apprentices and get rewards, but she doesn't know why, she just instinctively feels that something is not right, especially after seeing these tasks at a glance, Mary subconsciously feels as if there is something wrong, but she can't say it for a while.........

"Anyway, let's go back first, the time will be up soon."

Anne mentioned it at this time, and Mary also retracted her thoughts and nodded, this is their first day of work, yesterday Fang Zheng said that many people will come to apply to join Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry today, and their task is to evaluate these students, so they can't be late today, after all, this is the first day.

Thinking of this, everyone had no interest in talking, so they hurriedly left the restaurant after tidying up and returned the same way.

"How many apprentices are you going to take?"

Walking on the road, Mary also involuntarily asked this question, she was originally a merchant's daughter, and later she was lucky to worship under a change mage, relying on her own talent and diligence, which has come to this day step by step. In the land of magic, it is not easy to become a mage, one is talent, and the other is diligence.

Of course, talent is more important than hard work, just look at the lady in front of her, at her feet, there are countless corpses of mage apprentices who have almost exhausted their souls.........

In the White Tower, basically a regular mage will only accept a maximum of fifty apprentices, and the apprentices here are more like the mage's "research assistants", if it is in the magic academy in the country of magic, then the mage will give lectures to more than a hundred people at most in one class. How many people can stand out in the end depends on their own efforts.

"I'll pick ten people."

Anne's numbers are a bit more conservative.

"I'm not very good at teaching people yet, so I'll find a few and teach them slowly."

"I'm going to pick a hundred, and then as long as they all become illusionists, then we can go and set off fireworks together!"

Delian is still as free as ever, but everyone is used to it.

"My words......... About 30 people. ”

Mary thought for a moment, and then gave the answer. Her thoughts are similar to Anne's, although she has been a regular mage for a long time, Mary has not accepted apprentices, so she is determined to accept a few more talented and intelligent people to teach first, which can be regarded as training her experience.

As they talked, everyone returned to the school, but the moment they walked through the school gate and raised their heads, everyone froze almost in place.

I saw that the square inside the school gate that was enough to accommodate thousands of people was already densely packed with people at the moment, and many little girls in uniform were lining up in a neat queue, chattering and talking about something.

Seeing this, Mary was dumbfounded.

"Here......... How many people are there, exactly? ”
