Chapter 288 Interview
Apprentices of the Thought of Truth do not have the right to choose, at least from the moment they are spotted by the mentors who go out to find talented people until they actually join the Thought of Truth, apprentices have always had limited choices. For example, now, they are about to enter the Thinking of Truth branch The resident of the Ministry is about to become an apprentice under a certain official-level mentor. A good mentor will be the greatest help on their career path, but a bad mentor may cause the most talented apprentice to die early.
But even if this is directly related to the future road or even the life of the family, all apprentices can only accept it passively.
Mentors are the ones who choose apprentices. The treatment of those with excellent talents and those with ordinary talents is completely different. Those who choose excellent talents as apprentices are master-level powerhouses, while those who choose ordinary talents as apprentices are ordinary official-level mages.
However, if a certain talented apprentice is not favored by any master-level powerhouse, then he will face the same treatment as ordinary apprentices.
It is even more difficult to become a good mentor's apprentice. Those mentors who really intend to accept apprentices rather than just trying to do it half-heartedly generally do not make selections based entirely on the information submitted by the mind of truth. Most of them will interview many apprentices in person, and then Among them, choose the disciple you fancy.
But there are too few mentors who sincerely recruit apprentices, and most apprentices face nothing more than three options: "perfunctory mentor", "perverted mentor" and "no mentor".
Yes, in some cases there will be apprentices who are not selected by any mentors. Apprentices without mentors usually end up miserable. The "startup capital" of penniless apprentices is basically borrowed from mentors. , the tutor's knowledge explanation is an indispensable learning step for most apprentices with ordinary talents. It is not a good thing to be thrown on the periphery of the branch without any start-up funds. Or the person chosen by a mentor with a perverted habit will be miserable.
Instructors generally follow the rule of "needs first" when choosing apprentices. That is to say, mages who specialize in alchemy can give priority to apprentices with excellent magic power control ability, and instructors who like experimental anatomy will also choose apprentices with strong nerves.
However, most of the time, in the eyes of the instructors, apprentices are completely useless and a troublesome burden, so except for the perverted old man like Ben Rachel who stares at the beautiful apprentices who will carefully select apprentices, other mages are just Just pick two "meanings" and you're done.
As a master-level powerhouse, Punk certainly has the right to "meaningly" go through the motions, but for him, what he has to do is not only to recruit apprentices, but also to put on a serious attitude to serve In the future, I will pay more attention to a certain apprentice and make a draft.
So Punk took it for granted and began to seriously prepare for the interview for recruiting apprentices.
He first selected more than a dozen talented apprentices, including Anya, and then specially set aside a day of precious time to arrange interviews for these apprentices. He even chose the location of the interview directly in his magic tower.
I have to say that punk's behavior is too serious in the eyes of many perfunctory mages. It really looks like he is seriously choosing apprentices to pass on knowledge, at least completely different from Ben Rachel's old pervert attitude. no the same.
As a result, punk unexpectedly gained a reputation for being serious and serious. Many ordinary mentors even thought that the thought of truth would finally strengthen the cultivation of apprentices and reduce the perfunctory treatment of apprentices. Of course, punk did not know and would not Care.
The preparatory work is actually very simple for Punk. It is nothing more than informing the still silent Master Kirkwellen, and then ignoring Ben Rachel’s complaints after being intercepted by Punk as a beautiful apprentice. Well, it's done in the magic tower laboratory.
The time set for interviewing the apprentices was at seven o'clock in the morning, which was also the second day when the apprentices came to the Thought of Truth.
From the point of view of Punk, who was concentrating on meditation, not long after, the sun "Mira" and "Chicasa" outside the window have slowly risen.
After finishing his daily meditation, Punk put aside the sluggish Crow in the cage, and then sat down on a newly summoned stone chair:
"Very good. In this way, the "concern" for apprentices in the future will be logical. If you think about it, there is nothing wrong with it. Then...Anya...it depends on whether you can give me a surprise."
The brilliance of the morning light shines on Punk's back through the magic window. Seen from the front, Punk's body is completely covered by shadows. Only the blood-red lines are still flowing with scarlet energy, and only the blue pupils are still there. Turning the icy cold light!
--------Dividing line------
"I was born in a mage's family since I was a child. I have more knowledge than you have learned in your whole life. I must be one of Master Sai'an's apprentices this time. I advise you to get out of here quickly, because you are a man with a surname. There is no waste, do you understand?"
A young man in a gorgeous robe came to Anya's ear with disgust on his face and said arrogantly. His words were both ugly and merciless. It's hard to imagine that just now, the young man who said such words walked into the magic tower At that time, I once said goodbye to my friends with a humble face.
Now outside the laboratory door of the Punk Magic Tower, those apprentices who have climbed thousands of steps are now standing at the door of the laboratory in a regular manner. Although there are no servants guarding outside the Magic Tower, there is still not even a single apprentice When they dared to speak loudly, everyone either looked at their competitors with provocative eyes, or whispered delicate self-introductions.
But no matter whether it was by staring at each other or secretly making threatening gestures, there were no people like the boy next to Anya who taunted apprentices from poor families.
Generally speaking, apprentices with outstanding talents walk with strong self-esteem. In this case, anger is unavoidable.
But An Yagen didn't pay any attention to the young man next to her with disdainful eyes.
She knew that the other party was disturbing her emotions, because it was her turn to be interviewed next time.
Anya is more willing to believe that the humble side of this young man is the real face. She actually understands the unscrupulous competition of these apprentices who hope to become the master's disciple. After all, this mentor seems to be the very serious type. His apprenticeship is almost a step up to the sky.
In fact, if the mentor's name wasn't Punk-Sai'an, Anya would definitely be 100% determined to win, but now...
Those blue and cold eyes flashed in Anya's mind. Involuntarily, Anya felt her body become cold again.
Her intuition told the girl over and over - the interview qualifications she possessed are absolutely, absolutely, absolutely not a good thing!
