Extraordinary Voyage Chapter 91: Late letterhead
The lights in the room are very bright, not as dark and gloomy as imagined.
The floor is covered with soft wool carpets, and the walls are hung with thin curtains and decorative swords. The colors of purple and silver look very gorgeous.
There is not much furniture in the room, only a large cherry wood desk is placed against the wall, which is simple and elegant.
At first glance, it looks like entering an aristocratic study, without a trace of aura belonging to the mysterious world. At the same time...Ivan didn't feel a trace of popularity in his spiritual sense.
So.
When he found a bloated black-robed man sitting behind the desk, he was slightly surprised. Because apart from the harsh sound at the beginning, his keen senses did not notice that there was a living person in this room?
However, even if the librarian wears a hood in the room, his hands are tightly wrapped, making it impossible to see what he really looks like.
Because of asking others, Irving did not dare to look at the other party too wanton. Two steps forward, he placed the carefully prepared application form in front of the black robe with both hands.
"Mr. Administrator, I want to apply for a library loan qualification." Before coming, Ivan had heard Creel talk about the weirdness of the librarian here, and he did not show any unusual insight into his intentions.
click.. click.. click..
A pair of long, slender hands wearing black gloves, which are very different from his body shape, stretched out from the black robe, picked up Aiwen's application form and unfolded it to his eyes. I don't know if it is an illusion, Ivan vaguely seemed to hear the fine gears turning from under the black robe.
"Well, Mr. Irvine Garriott, right? Do you think you have something amazing?" It was still the harsh iron friction sound, and the black-robed man just glanced at Irvine's application at random , Just throw it into the drawer of the desk very casually.
Ivan would bet that this guy didn’t even read anything other than his name, but although this guy’s attitude was perfunctory, he couldn’t help but answer, even though the information that Creel told him did not There is no such link.
"Um...what's amazing?"
What is amazing? I...actually an apprentice wizard? Although Aiwen wants to be eligible for borrowing, he doesn't know if it's suitable to expose one of his biggest secrets here...?
"Okay, I see. It turned out to be a newcomer..." Before Aiwen organized a language to tell his advantages, he was quickly interrupted by the black robe man.
Then, regardless of Ivan’s reaction, he threw out a piece of yellowed parchment and spread it on the table. There was a line of mottled dark green text on the paper, which looked very much like an antique that has been around for some years.
"Read the words above."
Aiwen looked at the words on the paper intently, but did not immediately follow his request. Even without systematic study, Aiwen knew that Chinese characters in occultism contained unique magical powers.
I don’t know the source of the roots. If you read the words on the weird antique, you may trigger the power in it and cause misfortune!
is written on the paper as a variant of "spiritual text". Although it is older than the common text circulated in the extraordinary world, the change is not very large. It is similar to the difference between traditional and simplified characters. Obstruct Aiwen's reading.
"Don't try to know everything, otherwise you will know nothing."
唔, it's just a simple motto that has spread widely, and it is very common in various ancient documents and even modern literary works.
This kind of motto should be unlikely to hide any weird memes, because the greater the influence of spells such as the memetic curse and the longer the time span, the higher the requirements for the ability of the caster.
Unless you have power close to the gods, you have no ability to carry out such a large-scale curse. Aiwen doesn't think that such a powerful existence will have time to play this kind of word game with himself.
looked up at the black robe man again, except that there was a shadow under the black hood and nothing could be seen. After weighing it over, Ivan still read the above proverbs word by word.
飒——
Aiwen stared at the parchment, and saw that as he finished reciting the proverbs, there seemed to be a dark green light overflowing from the parchment. But then a dark shadow flashed from under the black robe and took away the parchment on the table by the way, without allowing Ivan to see further changes on the parchment.
"Okay, the interview is over. You will be notified of the result of the review within two weeks." After speaking, the black-robed man waved his hand and ignored Irving.
After knowing that the "Shadow Library" contains a lot of mysterious knowledge, Aiwen knew that as the person or organization that manages it, it cannot be an ordinary person. Otherwise, it is impossible to maintain independence in a place backed by a kingdom like the Royal Naval Academy.
Although he was a little dissatisfied with the attitude of the black-robed man, he didn't say much, just clicked, turned and left the room.
嘭——
The door was closed, and the originally bright light gradually dimmed until it disappeared completely. The figure of the black-robed man gradually stiffened and returned to the form of sitting in a tight-knit manner at the beginning. Only the cold mechanical sound without emotional fluctuations sounded.
"Ivan Garriott, possesses the aptitude of an explicit wizard, presumably already possesses the spiritual power to activate, the level is intermediate apprenticeship;
No obvious school mark was found;
No academic achievements published by the corresponding name were found;
Suspected of awakening wild wizard;
is included in the inspection list of pre-members for association, and follow-up to verify past experience. "
......
After the application was submitted, he let him put aside a worry temporarily.
Soon the short-term training course officially began.
The completely militarized management makes it seem that Ivan has returned to the time of recruit training, being full and busy at the same time ~IndoMTL.com~ has never experienced to take care of others.
But this life only lasted ten days, and was interrupted by an unexpected episode.
"What? A letter from the Royal Society of Medicine?"
Holding the letterhead sent to his apartment, Ivan recollected something that he would almost forget.
After all, it was more than four months ago.
Ivan successfully sprouts bean sprouts on the ship, and in cooperation with Dr. Martin, the ship’s physician of the "Silver Wing", they compiled a series of methods to prevent and treat scurvy and submitted them to the society. It wasn't until today that even Aiwen himself was about to forget that he received this unexpected letterhead.
opened the envelope with the cyan vine-shaped seal, and Ivan unfolded the letter paper.
