The light in the room was very bright, not at all dark and gloomy.

The floor is covered with a fluffy wool carpet, and the walls are covered with light draperies and decorative swords, and the tones of purple and silver look very rich.

There is not much furniture in the room, only a large desk of cherry wood is placed against the wall, which is very simple and generous.

At first glance, it looks like entering an aristocratic study, without a trace of belonging to the mysterious world. Meantime... There was no trace of popularity in Aven's spiritual sense.

So.

He was slightly surprised when he found a bloated black-robed man sitting behind his desk. Because apart from the somewhat harsh sound at the beginning, his keen senses didn't notice that there really was a living person in this room?

But the librarian wore a hood even in the room, and even his hands were tightly wrapped, making it impossible to see what he really looked like.

Because he asked for others, Ai Wen didn't dare to look at the other party too wantonly. took two steps forward, and placed the application form he had carefully prepared in front of the black-robed man with both hands.

"Mr. Administrator, I would like to apply for a loan from the library. "Before he came, Evan had heard from Krell about the strangeness of the librarian here, and he didn't show the slightest unusual clarity about his intentions.

Click: Click: Click:

A pair of slender hands wearing black gloves, which were very different from his size, stretched out from the black robe, picked up Aiwen's application and unfolded it in front of him. I don't know if it's an illusion, Ai Wen vaguely seems to hear the subtle sound of gears turning from under the black robe.

"Well, Mr. Evan Garlott, don't you, do you think there's anything surprising about it?" was still the harsh grinding sound of iron sheets, and the black-robed man just glanced at Aven's application casually, and threw it into the desk drawer very casually.

Evan bet that this guy didn't even read anything other than his own name, but despite his perfunctory attitude, he couldn't help but answer, even though the information Krell told him didn't have this link in it.

"Uh... What's amazing?"

What is amazing? Actually a wizard's apprentice?Although Evan wants to get a loan qualification, he doesn't know if it's appropriate to reveal his biggest secret here... One?

"Okay, I got it. It turns out that he is really a new Ding..."Before Ai Wen could organize a language to explain his advantages, he was quickly interrupted by the black-robed man.

Then, regardless of Aiwen's reaction, he directly threw out a piece of yellowed parchment and spread it on the table, with a line of mottled dark green text written on the paper, which looked very much like an antique that had been around for some years.

"Say the words out there. ”

Ai Wen stared intently at the words on the paper, but did not do what he asked him to do in the first place. Even without systematic learning, Evan knows that there is a unique magic in occult Chinese characters.

If you don't know the origin, if you read the words on a strange antique, you may trigger the power in it, and then invite misfortune!

Written on the paper was a variation of a line of "spiritual script", although it was older than the common script that was now circulating in the transcendent world, but the change was not very large, just like the difference between traditional and simplified characters, and it did not prevent Ai Wen from reading.

"Don't try to know everything, or you will know nothing. ”

Well, it's just a simple proverb that has been widely circulated, and it is very common in all kinds of ancient documents and even modern literature.

It is unlikely that such a proverb hides any weird memes, as the greater the area of influence and the longer the time span of a spell such as a memetic curse, the higher the requirements for the caster's abilities.

Unless you have the power to be close to the gods, you simply don't have the ability to perform such a large-scale curse. Evan didn't think that such a powerful being would have time to play this kind of word game with himself.

He glanced up at the black-robed man again, but there was a shadow under the black hood, and he couldn't see anything clearly. After weighing it, Ai Wen still read the above proverb word by word.

Sa –

Aivan, who was staring at the parchment, saw that as he finished reciting the proverbs, a dark green light seemed to overflow from the parchment. But then a dark shadow flashed from under the black robe, and swept away the parchment on the table, without allowing Evan to see any further changes in the parchment.

"Okay, the interview is over, and you will be notified of the results in two weeks. After saying that, the black-robed man waved his hand and ignored Ai Wen again.

From knowing that the "Shadow Library" contains a lot of mysterious knowledge, Evan knows that as the person or organization that manages it, it can't be an ordinary person. Otherwise, it would not be possible to maintain independence in a place like the Royal Naval College, which has a kingdom as its backing.

Although he was a little dissatisfied with the attitude of the black-robed man, he didn't say anything, just nodded, turned around and left the room.

Bang –

The door closed, the bright light gradually dimmed until it disappeared completely, and the figure of the black-robed man gradually stiffened back to the way he had sat upright at the beginning, and only the cold mechanical sound sounded without any emotional fluctuations.

"Evan Garlott, who has the qualifications of an overt wizard, is presumed to have activated psychic powers, and his level is intermediate apprentice;

No obvious school imprints were found;

No academic achievements were found corresponding to the published names;

A wild wizard suspected of awakening on his own;

Included in the list of probationary members of the association, and subsequent verification of past experience. ”

......

After the application was submitted, he put a thing on his mind for the time being.

Soon the course of the school began in earnest.

The completely militarized management makes Evan seem to have returned to the time of recruit training, full and busy at the same time, and no longer has the experience to take care of anything else.

However, this life lasted only ten days before it was interrupted by an unexpected episode.

"What?'s letter from the Royal Society of Medicine?"

Holding the letterhead that had been delivered to his collective apartment, Aven recalled something he had almost forgotten.

After all, it was more than four months ago.

Evan successfully grew sprouts on the ship, and in cooperation with Dr. Martin, the ship's doctor of the "Silver Wing", they jointly compiled a series of methods for preventing scurvy and submitted them to the society. It wasn't until today that even Evan himself was about to forget about it, that he received this unexpected letterhead.

Opening the envelope stamped with the seal in the shape of a cyan vine, Evan unfolded the letterhead.
