Chapter 994 How Many People Are There! ?
The amount of breakfast is not too big or small, and the taste is very good, but some people like this kind of thing and some don't, but because there are so many things, everyone doesn't care.
Those who don't like soy milk can eat tofu nao, and those who don't like tofu nao can also eat wontons, plus the steaming steamed buns, which can be regarded as a satisfying meal for a group of mages.
"What strange food, strange tableware."
Putting down the chopsticks in her hand, Mary couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Their meals in the White Tower are also very rich, but generally speaking, most of the mornings are bread, eggs, ham, and fresh soup. Of course, many mages don't care much about food, they belong to the kind that can fill their stomachs.
That's why this group of girls was able to eat up all these weird foods to them, anyway...they have eaten even the weirdest things.
Not to mention it tasted pretty good.
But what makes everyone more curious is the tableware used here. There are no knives and forks they are accustomed to using here. Instead, they are given two slender sticks for each person, which are called "chopsticks". After using this kind of tableware, some jokes were made, but the mage is a mage, and they soon became familiar with the use of chopsticks and enjoyed it.
"But this tableware is really interesting."
As Annie spoke, she waved her wrist and lightly picked up a bun.
"You see, it is simple and convenient, but it contains a very complicated principle... and all of this can be done with just two slender round sticks. I decided to use this thing for dinner in the future!"
"But you can't cut steak with this."
Delian pointed out the problem straight to the point, but Anne curled her lips.
"It doesn't matter, I don't eat steak anyway, I will get fat if I eat too much...Aren't you afraid?"
"It's okay, I'm the type that doesn't get fat no matter what I eat."
"........."
If it weren't for the fact that this is a public place, and the mages claim to be civilized people, they would have flipped the table on the spot.
Overall, the meal was quite enjoyable, and everyone got to know each other a lot, and felt that it was easier to get along with each other. This is also a matter of course. After all, Fangzheng was looking for people based on the search in "Shoujiaopianzhi". What he was looking for were teachers who were very suitable for getting along with children and would not lead them astray, instead of Prove your ability here, or a careerist with ulterior motives.
It is also because of this that the relationship between Mary and the others is not bad. After eating a meal, talking and laughing has enhanced a lot of friendship, and Delian even declared that to celebrate, she will pay for the meal.
However, to the surprise of the girls, they encountered some minor troubles when paying the bill.
"Sorry, we don't accept coins."
Looking at the gold coins that Delian placed on the counter, the leading little maid froze for a moment, then shook her head hastily. Upon hearing the little maid's answer, Mary and the others were also surprised.
"No coins? Then how do I pay the bill?"
"Just pay the points, a total of twenty-five points..."
"Points???"
Listening to the little maid's explanation, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, completely unaware of what the other party was talking about. But soon, the little maid gave the answer.
"Everyone should be equipped with a personal terminal. Just open the interface, open the 'payment' program above, and scan the number here."
Does the personal terminal still have this function?
Hearing this, Mary and the others opened their personal terminals curiously, and as expected, they found the number "5000" in the upper right corner of the interface. Delian swiped it according to the little maid's instructions, and saw that the original number instantly dropped to " 4975".
"This is really amazing..."
Looking at the scene in front of her, Jessica also expressed emotion, but at this moment, Delian seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly changed.
"Wait, you mean to say that in Tiandao Palace, everything is paid for by this point?"
"Yes."
"If I want to eat, buy clothes, or buy other things, do I have to deduct points?"
"Yes."
"Then... how to get these points?"
Hearing this, not only Delian was dumbfounded, but even Mary was dumbfounded. If it's about money, then they don't worry about it, but the problem is that the Tiandao Palace doesn't circulate coins, so they have to spend points to buy things and eat...but it's only 5,000 points!
"Each person will receive a fixed amount of guarantee points every month, which is enough to cover living expenses. The rest... depends on the tasks you have completed. Also, Brother Fangzheng will occasionally send out some commissions. If you are lucky, you can accept them. If you arrive and complete it, you can also get some points."
"Mission...mission...ah, I found it!"
Soon, according to the little maid's instructions, Mary found the task progress bar in her personal terminal.
"Enroll 50 students, increase the extra subsidy points by 50 points per month, enroll 100 students, increase the additional subsidy points by 100 points per month. The higher the proportion of apprentices who pass the assessment and become regular mages, the higher the bonus points will be... "
As she read it, Mary suddenly felt that something was wrong.
It’s true that I’m here to teach, and it’s true that the mage accepts apprentices to get rewards, but for some reason, she just instinctively feels that something is wrong, especially after seeing these rigid tasks, Mary subconsciously feels that something is wrong , but she couldn't say it for a while...
"All in all, let's go back first, the time is coming soon."
Anne mentioned something at this time, and Mary withdrew her thoughts and nodded. This is their first day of work. Fang Zheng said yesterday that many people will come to apply to join Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry today. Their task is to These students are going to be assessed, so you can't be late today, after all, this is the first day.
Thinking of this, everyone lost interest in talking, tidied up and left the restaurant in a hurry, returning along the same route.
"How many apprentices do you plan to take?"
Walking on the road, Mary also involuntarily asked this question. She was originally a merchant's daughter, but she was lucky enough to join a transformation mage. Relying on her talent and hard work, she made it to where she is today step by step. In the Kingdom of Sorcerers, it is not easy to become a mage. One is talent, and the other is hard work.
Of course, talent is more important than hard work. Just look at Miss Delian in front of you. At her feet, there are countless corpses of mage apprentices who almost boiled their souls dry...
In the White Tower, basically a regular mage will only accept up to 50 apprentices. The apprentices here are more like the "research assistants" of the mage. If it is in the Magic Academy of the Kingdom of Magic, then the mage takes a class You have to give lectures to up to a hundred people. How many people can stand out in the end depends on their own efforts.
"I'll choose ten people."
Annie's numbers are a little more conservative.
"I'm not very good at teaching people yet, let's find a few and teach them slowly."
"I'm going to choose a hundred. By then, as long as they all become illusionists, then we can go to set off fireworks together!"
Delian is still doing whatever he wants as always, but everyone is used to it.
"In my case...about thirty people."
Mary thought for a moment, and then gave an answer. Her thoughts are also similar to Anne's. Although she has been a regular mage for a long time, Mary has never taken on apprentices, so she is determined to take a few talented and smarter ones to teach, which can be regarded as training. own experience.
While talking, everyone returned to the school, but the moment they walked into the school gate and raised their heads, everyone almost froze in place.
I saw that the square inside the school gate, which could accommodate thousands of people, was already densely packed with people, and many little girls in uniforms were lining up neatly, chirping and chatting.
Seeing this scene, Mary was dumbfounded.
"How many people are there...?"
