Chapter 23: Assign work
New to a new environment, with longing and worries about the future, Xia has not been able to sleep for a long time, but compared to the days when he was at the Old Neil Hotel, Xia Duo felt very relieved in the Mage Tower.
No one has a conflict of interest with him. The contest between apprentices is more similar to the competition between students. There is no saying that if you overthrow others, you will profit.
The Mage Tower is a place of order. This is the place that Xia Duo is most satisfied with. It reminds him of the world before he crosses.
With all kinds of thoughts, Xia Duo fell asleep in a daze.
……
The next day, the day was just dark, and Xia Duo suddenly lifted the blanket and jumped off the bed, "Taling, request: this moment!"
"Apprentice Chateau, the current time: 4:05."
Xia Duo breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that it was not yet the time to "go to work". She wanted to sleep a little longer and was worried about missing the time. So she took out the first two letters that were sorted out last night, and she couldn't even call it a semi-finished product. Dictionary.
began to read and remember by the faint light of dawn.
Tired of reading, I took the wooden wine glass to the whirlpool in the bathroom, scooped some water to drink, moistened my throat, and continued reading.
Xia Duo swears that even in the college entrance examination that year, he had never done so hard!
As expected, the environment can change people!
……
Reading aloud and remembering, Xia Duo forgot the time, until the light in the room suddenly became bright, Xia Duo realized that the "get up reminder" had come.
The current time is 5 o'clock in the morning. Including the "sleeping reminder" at 9 o'clock in the evening, the rest time planned by the Master Tower for the apprentice is exactly 8 hours, which is also in line with the daily rest time of the average Master.
Of course, planning is planning, and reality is another matter. At least last night, I saw the apprentices "light-fighting at night".
Xia Duo quickly packed his things and put all the things that are convenient to carry into the inner pocket of the mage's robe, especially the part of the dictionary he compiled last night, and even the bottle of inferior ink he put in his inner pocket.
Finally, he took the water and wiped his face indiscriminately, and went out.
Before opening the door, Xia Duo felt that he should have been early. After all, he woke up before the "waking up light" turned on, and then came out without much delay, but when he came to the restaurant on the first floor, he realized that he was already It's late.
Some of the apprentices had already left with the egg rolls and cheese for breakfast, while others ate their food quickly and found a corner in the lobby to read their books. Since Xia Duo had just joined the Mage Tower, he still didn't know how to arrange his next work, so he could only learn how to quickly finish the food and wait in the hall.
While reading silently and memorizing the color-resistant text, he waited.
During , the "unknown" apprentices who came to their hearts yesterday also came, but after they had eaten, they had nothing to do. They chatted in the hall, which made the originally quiet hall extremely noisy.
Xia Duo couldn't help but frown and hesitated, but since no one else is in the limelight, he doesn't want to be a leading bird, but uses this noisy environment to exercise his ability to concentrate.
This is one of the core elements of a wizard's spell. If the concentration is not enough, even if you can cast the spell, the chance of losing control of the spell will far exceed that of a more focused person.
Xia Duo comes from modern times, with various information temptations. Compared with the pure native apprentice, Xia Duo's concentration is a bit inferior. Xia Duo has realized this.
……
At 5:30, a middle-aged mage came to the hall, and the whole hall was quiet. Apprentices who had not been assigned to work surrounded him, and Xia Duo was no exception.
"Okay, 45 apprentices left yesterday, and 26 new ones were added. When it comes to the daily operation of the mage tower, the work of some of the original apprentices of the mage tower will also be adjusted. I will report some of the work below. Willing to raise his hand, and experience is preferred."
I don't know if it was a spell. The middle-aged mage's voice was extremely loud, and his voice was recalled in the entire hall.
And Xia Duo is thinking about what kind of work he can adapt to. It is best to have a free job from time to time, so that he can learn color-resistant writing outside of work.
But what will happen, he can only think about it. In the end, the middle-aged mage in front is the most decisive.
"Arcane Garden, lack of 5 people, have experience in farming and caring for plants first!"
As soon as the voice fell, seven or eight hands were raised. Xia Duo thought about it and raised his hands. There should be a lot of free time for farming and caring for plants, and Xia Duo also has some experience.
Xia Duo has planted daffodils, asparagus, cacti, and fishes before crossing. He should be considered as experienced. In addition, being in China, under the influence of ears and eyes, Xia Duo passively accepts a lot of agricultural knowledge. Xia Duo thinks he can adapt to this. Work.
Middle-aged mage, casually ordered 5 people including Chateau, called to the side, and then continued: "Processing materials, lack of 16 people! Relevant experience is preferred."
Wow, good fellow, except for Xia Duo and the others who had already called aside, almost everyone raised their hands.
The middle-aged mage called to the side who didn't raise his hand, and continued to ask: "Cooking in the kitchen~www.readwn.com~ 5 people are missing."
5 strokes.
"There is a shortage of 5 people in the Materials Department, and it needs a foundation in writing and arithmetic."
5 more strokes.
After , no people raised their hands. Instead, 16 people who handled the materials were rowed away. The rest were cleaning staff. Whether it was cleaning the inside of the mage tower or going to the laundry room to wash clothes, it counts.
Xiao Neil was picked up and down, and finally became a cleaning staff.
……
After the work was assigned, the middle-aged mage asked everyone to register their names and leave a record. After that, he asked all the apprentices to arrange their own work, and only said that the wages were deducted for the attendance at the end of the month.
Xia Duo noticed that when the middle-aged mage was leaving, his eyes stopped for a few seconds, as if he was looking at the name embroidered on his chest.
don't know if it is good or bad.
……
The Arcane Garden is located on the second floor of the Mage Tower. It is a fairly large plain. Among the 4 apprentices who went to the Arcane Garden with Chateau, there was a "named" formal apprentice just like him.
Along the way, the apprentice named Sami was quite talkative, and almost once again subverted Chateau’s impression of the apprentice of the Mage Tower, but from the perspective of Sami’s inquiries about Xia Duo’s background, the apprentice of the Mage Tower was not like before. What Chateau thought was so "close to the outside world."
It’s okay, if it really looks like a robot, it’s a bit scary to think about it.
"By the way, Sammy, have you worked in the Arcane Garden before? What do you usually do there?" Chateau asked.
"I haven't been, but my brother used to work in the Arcane Garden. The work there is not complicated. Generally, there are only one or two days a week to get tired. The rest of the days are generally clear about weeds and pests."
