Chapter 085: Will You Remember How Many Pieces of Bread You Eat
"Lin Xiao wants to apply for a professorship at Honeysuckle University......"
Margaret sat behind the rosewood table, her eyes looked incredulous, and she paused for a moment before asking:
"Are you still applying for the honeysuckle ace major, the world's top ten ancient language majors?"
The man in the suit and leather shoes nodded, and said expressionlessly, "That's what he just told me." β
Margaret rubbed her temples lightly and sighed: "It's just that Lin Xiao jumped out of the way, and you are also stupid with him, thinking that Honeysuckle's professorship can be achieved by relying on the operation of the investigation team?" β
Chu Yun's eyes moved slightly, and he said in a strange tone: "He didn't plan to rely on the background of the investigation team to enter Honeysuckle University...... Instead, according to the normal channel, he will be interviewed for recruitment at Honeysuckle University. β
This time it was Margaret's turn to be stunned and sigh softly.
According to the raven, Lin Xiao seems to really know the ancient language, and his level is not low.
It's not surprising that a cardmaster with a level 5 or higher has mastered another skill at the same time.
After all, masters tend to learn across disciplines.
But...... Applying for a professor in the Department of Ancient Languages of Honeysuckle?
Margaret said to herself.
This is too sensational.
He's never older than 20, and regardless of his academic level, if he does become a professor at a top card academy, he'll make federal headlines the next day.
This is not conducive to the investigation of the Demon God case.
But......
If Lin Xiao can really become a teaching assistant or even a lecturer at Honeysuckle University, I believe that when investigating the case, he will have more authority and be more comfortable.
"I understand, the plan has changed, Lin Xiao will not be admitted as a 'freshman', and try to fight for him as a 'lecturer'."
Margaret said resolutely, "What is his ancient language?" Need to find another person to train? β
"Just now, Sigrid took a graduate test paper from the Department of Ancient Languages and gave it to Lin Xiao, and the answers were all correct."
Chu Yun muttered: "Of course, doing the questions is only one aspect, and the many tests that followed showed that he had a deep attainment in the field of ancient languages...... Previously, he was still underestimated. β
"I see."
Margaret crossed her fingers and sighed slightly: "Fifth Order Master, scholar of ancient languages...... With these two golden titles, he is a sought-after talent in any country......"
After completing the A-level commission twice in a row, he can completely refuse to participate in this operation.
After all, commissions involving demon gods are extremely risky, and the other operators can't avoid them.
But Lin Xiao seems to be very keen on dealing with the Demon God incident.
Source dust and promotion are of course objective elements, but come to think of it, he also has his own rules of conduct...... For example, justice, for example, responsibility.
"Hmph, raven, his philosophy is not without similarities with yours." Margaret bowed her head.
"Be the hero who saves the world."
In the third grade of elementary school, the teacher asked everyone about their ideals, and the little boy answered excitedly, and got a burst of laughter.
Carrying a bench to greet the senior students who bullied their classmates, standing in the academic affairs office with a blue nose and swollen face, and the parents who were not highly educated rubbed their hands and smiled flatteringly at the leader.
On the way home, his father did not beat and scold Xiao Chuyun, but carried him on his back, looked at the dusk and said, "No matter what, Dad supports your concept!" β
Growing up, Chu Yun knows how difficult it is to save the world, and the gap in reality cannot be filled by ideas.
"Save those who can't fight."
On the night of the rainstorm, the leader of the sixth group stopped the hideous deep divers and covered the evacuation of the seriously injured Chu Yun.
Chu Yun felt his weakness deeply, and at the same time redoubled his firmness in his concept, burying it deep between nicotine and smoke.
It wasn't until he came to the Card Master Guild by chance that he recruited a new operator who could be called 'Legendary', and then "saved" by him in several missions.
"Lin Xiao's idea......" Chu Yun muttered, "I, I can't see through that guy." β
But at least, I'm very lucky to be a partner with him.
"Me too." Margaret smiled at the corner of her mouth.
Back in Middle-earth, that's just his short-term goal.
What about the longer term?
Gu Qi
Hidden under the appearance of detachment and humility, he seems to be empty-eyed, and has an arrogant heart that belongs to the strong.
Whether it's Honeysuckle University, the Demon God Altar, or even the arrogant god behind the scenes, he hasn't paid attention to it.
A master cardmaster who has mastered an ancient language is bound to embark on a broader journey.
Middle Ages, and even the First Generation...... The knowledge buried in history will be slowly unfolded through the key of 'ancient languages'.
Free Federal ...... It was only the beginning of his travels.
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 meeting at Honeysuckle University."
"Otherwise, no matter how strong the academic level is...... Margaret shrugged, "with his qualifications and background, he is not even qualified to enter the gate of Honeysuckle." β
"I'll pass it on." Chu Yun nodded.
Next, let's see Lin Xiao's own performance at the faculty interview.
β¦β¦
Leave the investigation team and return to the rental house in the lower town.
Dinner was basic: stewed potatoes, canned beans, smoked sausages, crème brûlée.
Lin Xiao was tasting dessert as the end of dinner when the overhead light suddenly went out.
"Ahh Mrs. Smith said, "The neighborhood said that there will be a power outage during the peak summer electricity season, Lin Xiao, you go and take out the candles." β
June is the peak season for electricity consumption in Xingtu City, even if there is a source of power, electricity is still an irreplaceable energy source, and the world is in a shortage of energy.
Therefore, every summer, Xingtu City will adopt 'limited power supply', and large-scale power outages often occur in the lower urban area.
"Don't be that troublesome." A card appeared between Lin Xiao's fingers, injecting a small amount of source power.
Suddenly, the flash of light shone on the entire rental house, reflecting the old lady's shocked and uncertain face.
"It's called 'flashing.'" Lin Xiao explained, "Controlling the brightness can be used for lighting. β
"Illuminate with cards and source power...... This is too extravagant. Mrs. Smith was surprised.
Ordinary people can use the source power through the "source power card", and the "source power card" is expensive, so the price of "source power" as an energy source is much higher than that of "electricity".
Lin Xiao said: "It's not extravagant, this bit of source power, I can make up for it by eating some bread crumbs." β
The old lady looked dazed.
For Lin Xiao.
The consumption of the source power of the "Flash Technique" in one night is not as fast as the automatic return of the "Blessing" spring water.
Needless to say, "Bread of Happiness" can restore 30% of the source power limit at one time.
A little breadcrumb is estimated to be equal to the entire source power value of a low-level card master......
Will you remember how many pieces of bread you've eaten?jpg
Lin Xiao wanted to try the new epic quality card pen tonight.
However, the lighting effect of the flash technique is not as practical as the electric light after all, and the card will be disturbed when the line of sight is affected.
Therefore, Lin Xiao and Daifuku went out together, standing in the cool night, looking at the brightly lit Xingtu Bridge on the other side of the river.
"Oo?" Daifuku looked at the bridge, turned his head, and blinked.
Why isn't there a power outage?
"Because that's not our home." Lin Xiao replied.
The summer nights are pleasant, but the rental house is close to the riverbank and there are many mosquitoes.
The gods who were in the same medieval era as the mosquitoes have fallen, but the mosquitoes have survived until now...... Weak is also a kind of strength.
Lin Xiao stretched his waist and said, "Let's go Dafu, go back to sleep, get up early tomorrow, we have an important task." β
"Oo?"
"Evolve Ice Spear!"
