Chapter 2740 Qualification Examination
May 1, Saturday.
The second semester of the sophomore year, the tenth week of school.
The ninth week is the midterm exam week. Because of early graduation, Zheng Qing and Jiang Yu did not follow the school's general teaching plan. He once thought that he didn't have to worry about any exams before graduation.
But just one week later, this "thought" was declared to be just a fluke.
After the second class of the imperial decree on Saturday morning, Zheng Qing did not rush to the cafeteria as usual. Instead, he wolfed down the bacon sandwich that had been prepared long ago with milk, while finding an empty classroom and turning his hourglass again.
After talking with Professor Selius at noon yesterday, Zheng Qing immediately submitted an application report for "extra use of the time converter" to the school work committee.
Originally, he thought that this kind of report involving timeline adjustment would have results the next day.
But that afternoon, just after the practical class ended, Hilda took the receipt given by the school work committee and called the "teaching assistant student" who had not had time to slip away.
"Your application for additional use of the time converter has been approved."
The practical class teacher touched the copper nail on his ear, carefully looked at the parchment he had just received, and looked depressed: "Damn it, the scope of our security monitoring has increased by nearly 40%!"
Since the Thomas rebellion, Zheng Qing has known that Hilda is also a member of the guard team, so the two never shy away from this when chatting.
"Thank you for your hard work!" The boy thanked him dryly.
"--In short," Hilda shook the parchment in her hand, squinted at her young colleague, and slightly emphasized her tone: "You must strictly follow the movement line on the application form... If you run around on the timeline and leave our protection range, and are finally caught by the crows to cut off the places that should not be cut, you don't have to go to the cat fruit tree in the future."
He glanced at Zheng Qing's lower body with ill intentions.
Zheng Qing's scalp was a little numb.
He felt that he seemed to have no privacy in the eyes of these guards. I don't know how much information these guys have exchanged with each other behind the scenes, and even words like "cat fruit tree" can be said naturally.
…
…
Because it was the first time that he reversed the time while eating.
Zheng Qing was inevitably a little uncomfortable - but considering that breakfast had been more than six hours away, in order to stay awake in the next three hours of assessment, he had to take the time to replenish some energy - going back to three hours ago, Zheng Qing was inexplicably bloated, even if he swallowed a mouthful of milk in seven mouthfuls.
As a result, he was still burping when he entered the examination room, causing other people in the classroom to look at him sideways.
If it was a year and a half ago, he would have blushed and covered his face when he was baptized by such eyes.
But now, he can face it all calmly, and even wave and say hello to people he knows happily.
"Good afternoon, Miss Jessop!"
The boy greeted the purple-haired witch sitting by the window.
Violet Jessop, a senior assistant, is a graduate of the 99th grade of the school like Victor, Thomas and others. Together with Hilda, Hoshino Gen and others, they form the core team of the current acting leader Zhang Yu.
Zheng Qing had seen this witch on the plane for admission.
Later, in the school hunting competition, winter hunting, and the battle of the black prison, he and Violet had dealt with each other several times. Although they didn't have much contact, they were barely acquaintances.
"Good morning."
Violet corrected the boy's words and nodded slightly - Zheng Qing didn't think the purple-haired witch was impolite, she had always been cold.
But when she said "good morning", Zheng Qing realized that he had returned to three hours ago.
He was so busy in the morning that he completely forgot the time.
When he sat down and stuffed the sandwich into his mouth, he drank milk and looked around, and then he realized that he was the only one in the room wearing a colored robe.
The colored robe represents the identity of a student.
In the whole classroom, except for him, everyone else wore a very formal black robe, exuding the "turbid" atmosphere of a "social person". Everyone was quietly looking through the materials in their own seats. No one was talking to each other, and no one was walking back and forth. The atmosphere seemed unusually clean.
All of this was completely different from the style of the students in school.
The young student on public funds couldn't help twisting in his seat, wanting to share this discovery with others. It was a pity that Xiao Xiao and Xin were not around, which made people feel very depressed.
Nine o'clock.
The classroom door opened on time.
The whole room seemed to come alive instantly - some were packing books, some were regulating their breathing, some were rushing to apply cooling oil to their temples or burning a sobering talisman - this quiet but lively atmosphere made Zheng Qing inexplicably feel that the people in the room before were not breathing.
Three wizards in black robes entered the room one after another. Zheng Qing didn't recognize any of them, only the square-faced wizard in the lead, who looked vaguely familiar to him.
"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen."
The middle-aged wizard in the lead did not waste any time and quickly introduced his colleagues: "I am the invigilator of this 'Registered Talisman Drawing Master', Dorag Barton..."
When he said his name, Zheng Qing suddenly remembered that this wizard was a researcher at the Institute of Magical Creatures and had heard his name in Gan Ning's class.
It's just that I don't know what the considerations are for letting a wizard who studies magical creatures to invigilate the talisman master exam.
"——This is the invigilator sent by the Trident, a senior commissioner, Mr. Jiang Jizhou."
Drag Barton pointed to his side, and a pale wizard took a step forward and nodded slightly, his expression a little gloomy.
Zheng Qing remembered that Jiang Yu said that most of the wizards with the surname "Jiang" were from the zombie tribe. Just looking at the appearance of this invigilator, it was almost certain.
"——and the third-party supervisor sent by the Wizard Council, Mr. Gregory Le Bon."
The square-faced invigilator pointed to the last round-faced wizard, and after he greeted him, he changed the subject and read out the exam rules skillfully:
"... On behalf of the First University, I welcome the arrival of the Commissioner and Mr. Le Bon, and also welcome all candidates to participate in the "Licensed Talisman Bullet Maker" qualification exam hosted by the Wizard Union and co-organized by the First University and the Wizard Union Investigation Bureau.
Although everyone has participated in many assessments, I still need to remind everyone before this exam.
First of all, it is obvious that cheating is prohibited in this exam - including but not limited to the use of felicity potions, auxiliary talisman construction, and other potions and magic rituals that improve intelligence and hands-on ability in a short period of time. Once discovered, the results will be invalidated. The reporter can get a certain amount of bonus points after verification."
