Chapter 418 Formalities

PS: Thank you to the four students "X", "Heavenly Dao Rulian", "R Soft Bones" and "NXCX" for voting for their valuable monthly passes!

"Are you here to join the Tower?" Retracting her gaze, Sora looked at Zhou Chao and asked lightly.

"Yes." Zhou Chao nodded in acknowledgement.

"As a magician?" Sora asked again.

"No, as a learner." Zhou Chao shook his head slightly.

Don't look at it as joining the watchtower, but the obligations of the two are completely different! The former is to join the power of the clock tower, and after entering, it is equivalent to the staff and the bottom, and if the fate is not good, it will be the life of cannon fodder in the future. The latter is a student who comes to study at the Tower, and whether or not to join the Tower can be decided according to their own situation.

And after joining, the starting point will be different from that of the magician who joins directly, at least he will serve in a certain department, and even if he is still cannon fodder, he will be better off than most cannon fodder.

After all, the relationship is there. Even if magicians are known for being cold-blooded and disregarding others, they still can't avoid the existence of differential treatment when resources are available. Otherwise, there would be no class of 'aristocracy'.

"Register him." Sora nodded slightly, turned her head and commanded the two magicians beside her.

"Yes." The female magician hurriedly answered, then walked quickly to the counter, pulled out a form from the drawer, and handed it to Zhou Chao.

Zhou Chao stretched out his hand to take it, lowered his head and looked at it briefly.

The content of the form is no different from the form of the general personnel file form, and there are requirements for filling in personal information such as name, origin, and home address, but it is not mandatory, but you can write it if you want to. It doesn't matter if you don't want to write, anyway, for the clock tower, if you want to make trouble, there are ways to find your whereabouts.

Then Zhou Chao took the quill from the other party and dipped it in the ink provided by the other party. Fill out the form quickly.

Name: Zhou Chao.

Age: Null.

Gender: Male.

Place of Origin: China.

Family: Null.

Use Magic: Null.

……

In less than half a minute, a document that was basically not filled in except for name, gender and background was handed back by Zhou Chao.

The female magician in charge of the reception reached out to take it, and couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth. She didn't say anything, though, after all, she was just a receptionist, and there was no reason to go to a strange magician who was obviously covered by Sofia's house behind her.

Then the materials are bound and put away. Then he said again, "Please pay the tuition." ”

"How much?" Zhou Chao asked curiously.

"Twenty thousand pounds." Reception Channel.

"......" Zhou Chao was speechless. Then he couldn't help but secretly say, "It seems that no matter what world it is, going to school is a big thing." ”

It's no wonder that Zhou Chao sighed so much, you must know that with the current world environment and British prices, 20,000 pounds is enough for the total amount of money spent by ordinary low-level British people in a year, and this is only the entrance fee to enter the clock tower. This shows how high the tuition fee of the clock tower is.

However, Zhou Chaodao did not hesitate to do this, and as soon as he took out the palm of his hand, he took out a large handful of pounds and put it on the counter. The receptionist stretched out his hand and took it and pressed it lightly, and a glimmer of light that was almost indistinguishable without careful observation shone from the money, and then he heard the receptionist say, "The amount is just right." ”

It was clear that she had used some kind of trick in her previous simple press.

followed the hostess and said, "Choose the dormitory you want." ”

At the same time, he stretched out his arm and handed a thick booklet to Zhou Chao. Zhou Chao took it and opened it. Check out the contents of the booklet.

The content is very simple, it is a dormitory introduction material, which introduces in detail the dormitory situation in the clock tower - ordinary single rooms, deluxe single rooms, single rooms with real yàn rooms, presidential suite-style single rooms, etc. But what makes people speechless is what. Each room is followed by a note that resembles a price list.

For example, a single room - £800 per month. Deluxe Room - £2,000/month. Studio with real yàn - £20,000/month. Presidential Suite - £53,000/month......

The price is against the sky, and it is definitely not something that ordinary magicians from the wild road or without a background can afford. Presumably, this is also a threshold deliberately set by the nobles of the Clock Tower, in order to increase the cost of learning magic, in order to reduce the number of magicians and limit the circulation of magic.

After all, for the famous nobles who have been around for a long time, this consumption is really nothing.

Zhou Chao didn't care about this - after all, as long as he wanted to. Money or something is still easy to get, so after a general look at the vacancy of the dormitory in the clock tower. I chose a single room with a real yàn room on the fourth floor of the student dormitory and priced at £20,000 per month. And paid the rent for the month on the spot.

It's not that he doesn't want to pay for a year at a time and save the trouble when the time comes, but he has just arrived in the UK for less than a day, and many things have not been done yet, and there is no such thing as a check on him, so he can only pretend to take the pounds he got from the Harry Potter world to make up the money before bringing it to the Moon World.

"Here's your receipt and dormitory key, please take it." The reception staff collected the money, handed a voucher and two keys to Zhou Chao and said.

Zhou Chao nodded slightly and put things away.

"Miss Sofiari, it's okay." Then, the reception staff rushed to the side and stood with his arms crossed, and looked at Sola in front of him with a cold expression.

"Come with me." Sora lowered her arms and turned to speak. After speaking, without waiting for Zhou Chao to answer, he walked towards the small door not far away.

Seeing this, Zhou Chao smiled low and followed. After a while, he and Sora left the British Library.

……

"Which subject are you going to take?" On the way, Sora asked.

Speaking of which, we have to talk about the magic teaching method of the Clock Tower.

There are a total of thirteen courtyards inside the Tower, which are composed of the whole foundation (the common knowledge of magic, the leylines, and the great source), the individual foundation, the séance, the ore, the animal, the inheritance, the plant, the celestial body, the creation zào, the curse, the archaeology, the modern magic theory, and the law and politics. However, compared to the first 12 items, the Famasa is mainly aimed at people who volunteer to be in power, and the teaching is not to explore the mysteries, but to promote the knowledge of society, so it is not counted in the 12 faculties.

Therefore, the only thing that the tower really has for magicians is the first twelve subjects.

The whole foundation is something that all magicians learn. It will take about five years.

Of course, this refers to the normal situation, and if you are a genius like Aozaki Orange, you can also graduate early in a short time. Only then did they enter the academy controlled by the respective families or factions of the nobles for in-depth study.

For example, Kenneth's previous séance department was the academy mastered by Sofiari's family. Therefore, in the Clock Tower, the Sofia family also has the title of monarch. This is an honorific title for the power that controls the Academy.

Above it, there are the three famous doors of the dragon that cannot see the end.

So in terms of power, the Sofia family is also the top in the Clock Tower.

"Séance." Zhou Chao replied without hesitation.

"Yes." Sora walked for a moment, then returned to normal, and said coldly, "But if you want to get extra resources, you need to show enough value, otherwise even if I want to, I won't be able to help you." ”

"I understand." Zhou Chao nodded and said.

"That's good." Sora was satisfied.

There was a moment of silence between the two of them, which lasted until the area building where the Séance was located, only to be broken by the voices of Sora and the others.

"Olya, register him, from today onwards, he will be a student of the Spiritual Descent." Sora instructed a woman with long blond hair.

"Okay." The woman named Olya glanced at Zhou Chao and nodded in agreement. Immediately, he took out a piece of paper from a stack of pages that was the same as the information form filled out at the door and handed it to Zhou Chao.

Zhou Chao was not annoyed, took the form and filled it out again. But the content is still very simple, nothing is written except for identity and origin, so it didn't take long for him to fill it out and hand it back to Olya.

The latter reached out and took it, and after a casual glance, he casually threw the form aside.

"Let's go." Sola said.

Zhou Chao nodded and followed Sora out of the office of the Spiritual Descent. It's just that before he could take a few steps, Sola stopped again, turned to look at Zhou Chao, and said in a cold voice with a faint sense of alienation than before, "Okay, I have done what I promised you, and the rest is up to you, I hope your appearance will not be very ashamed." ”

"Although I may not be able to become the best, I can still do it if I am generally above the table." Zhou Chao said with a smile.

"If it's just that kind of Cheng dù, then our relationship is probably over. I'm not going to waste my time on a mediocrity. Sora said unceremoniously.

Zhou Chao shrugged his shoulders and didn't say anything.

Seeing this, Sora snorted coldly and turned around to leave. But he was immediately stopped by Zhou Chao again.

"Wait a minute."

Sora turned back and looked at him with an emotionless look.

"I need an unlimited library card from the British Library, and I'm asking Miss Sola to take care of it for me." Zhou Chao looked directly at Sora and said softly.

"I see, I'll have someone deliver a library card to your dorm later." Sora said coldly.

"Thank you, Miss Sola, then." Zhou Chao smiled and bowed his head and thanked him.

Sora glanced at Zhou Chao lightly, didn't say anything, turned around and walked away.

"Da, da, da, da......"

"Hour Tower...... What a place of apathy. Zhou Chao, who watched Sora walk away, muttered quietly. Then he didn't stay in the hallway long and walked towards the dormitory he rented.

After three turns and five turns, ten minutes later, Zhou Chao came to his dormitory. (To be continued)
