Chapter 828 still has sixty-one days
The warm wind of late spring still carries a little coolness when the night comes, making pedestrians can't help but tighten their necklines.
Donnie pressed his black top hat, got out of the bright yellow public transportation bus, strolled down the bright street like daytime, and walked towards the "Knowledge Bookstore" near Triumph Square.
"Is this week's "Arcane and Magic Herald" here?" Donnie asked the boss with a beard.
The boss with dark yellow hair said without raising his eyelids: "No, not anymore."
"Really......" Donnie's tone was not surprised, he sighed slightly as if he had expected it, and a strong sentimental mood filled out.
The boss raised his head, looked at him with a pair of owl-like eyes and said: "What are you sorry? Since the popularization of magic live screens into home TVs, Ms. Heidi's artificial intelligence has made breakthroughs, and newspapers that are inherently problematic will sooner or later announce their suspension."
In his strange pupils, a handsome young man was reflected, about sixteen or seventeen years old, at the age of prime, but his blue eyes were a little tired, and his expression was vaguely depressed.
Donnie smiled bitterly: "I grew up watching "Arcane and Magic Herald", it was it that led me to the arcane path of pursuing the essence of the world, for me, it is a beautiful memory, a life that I will never forget."
The complete popularization of magic radio and home TV, the initial civilian use of artificial intelligence, so that citizens have a lot of channels for information sources, and the dependence on newspapers is greatly reduced, especially the basic knowledge of arcane has been popularized until now, many ordinary people are interested in deeper and higher-end arcane theories, because this seems to have nothing to do with their own lives, anyway, the general understanding can also be obtained from mainstream newspapers, radio and home TV, etc., "Arcane and Magic Herald", a newspaper specializing in arcane and magic, is unnecessary. Therefore, the number of subscriptions has dropped significantly.
They have more professional academic journals, "Alinge Impressions" that are more in line with their tastes, and there is a real channel in the world, so three years ago, that is, starting from the 21st year of the arcane calendar, such newspapers often stopped and went bankrupt.
The bookstore owner pointed to the rows of bookshelves: "If you want to learn basic arcane, there are many professional books here, if you want to learn the latest trends in arcane research, you can subscribe to "Alinge Impressions", or watch the arcane popularization program of 'World Real' TV every day, etc., there is really no need to read "Arcane and Magic Guide" anymore."
Under the bright magic crystal lamp, the rows of dark or dark blue spines glowed with a demonic brilliance, which made Donny dizzy for a while, and the blue veins on his forehead jumped slightly: "No need, I haven't mastered my own books yet."
The reason why he took public transportation to Triumph Square was because some time ago it was no longer possible to buy "Arcane and Magic Herald" near the school, and the "Knowledge Bookstore" was still there, but who knows, it has only been less than a month, and "Arcane and Magic Herald" cannot support it.
The boss laughed and glanced at the magic apprentice and apprentice arcanist badge on the chest of Donnie's deep black dress, as well as a black background with a pale green outline of seven leaves: "You are a fifth-year student at the 'Heart of Nature' school, right? Now there are only sixty-one days left before the 'Unified Entrance Examination for Higher Magic Schools', what else to buy is the "Arcane and Magic Herald", and you should review it carefully."
As soon as he heard the "Unified Entrance Examination for the High School of Magic", Donnie's facial muscles couldn't help but twitch, and his expression was a little dazed, a little irritable, and a little depressed: "Today is the weekend, and there will be evening classes at eight o'clock......"
He subconsciously explained, then smiled self-deprecatingly, what do I do with this for him?
After more than 20 years of evolution, under the leadership of the Magic Council, the entire continent has formed a three-level school system such as civic general education - primary magic schools, various alchemy schools, and other professional schools - higher magic academies.
The former is mainly open to children and adults who need literacy education, with five years of basic general education, and then after passing exams including mental power measurement and basic theory of arcane, graduates are promoted to junior magic schools, etc., and become magic apprentices or specialized alchemists and other occupations.
The junior magic school is also a five-year course, completing the basic education of real magic and arcane, training qualified magic apprentices and trainee arcanists, and finally, passing the "Unified Entrance Examination for Higher Magic Schools" to select talents to enter major magic academies.
In the unified entrance examination, those who have already become official magicians will receive a certain amount of extra points.
Donnie was about to turn around when he heard the bookstore owner laugh and said: "I see that you only have three badges issued by the school, and there are no other magic items.
Under such a school system, various magical items and potions that recover from fatigue, keep a clear mind, and enhance memory are favored by many students, and they must wear a "sobriety necklace" or an "energy ring" on their bodies.
Although these accessories and potions cannot be used in the real unified entrance exam, they are extremely helpful in the efficiency of daily study, so no one will refuse unless they can't afford it at all.
Donny's face suddenly turned pale, then red, shameful and annoyed, and he turned around to escape the bookstore that embarrassed him.
"I have a 'sobriety necklace' here that I can rent to you for two months......" The boss's emotionless voice reached Donny's ears, causing him to pause.
Then, he turned abruptly, looked at the boss and said, "Why?"
There was excitement and suspicion in his tone, and out of the corner of his eye, he fell on the bookshelf, looking at the book "Identification of Various Fraudulent Magic Contracts" by Lucian Evans, secretly speculating in his heart, do you have to pay for your soul?
The boss laughed and said: "I am also a loyal reader of "Arcane and Magic Herald", otherwise it would be impossible to buy it at the end, so seeing you, I feel like I have seen my past self...... Why, are you afraid that I have another purpose? You can take the deed to the audit department of the town hall for appraisal."
"Me, do I have to pay any price?" Donnie relaxed a little and asked eagerly.
The boss thought for a while: "The deposit of ten copper coins, come to work with me for two months after the unified entrance examination is over."
When Donnie heard such a condition, he nodded hurriedly: "Okay! No problem! Sir, when will you sign the contract?"
A "sobriety necklace" was worth about two to five queen gold coins, and it was natural for Donnie to be able to rent one at such a cheap price.
"The necklace is not on me, come over tomorrow at this time." The boss nodded slightly.
After thanking Donnie repeatedly, he saw that it was not too late, so he left the bookstore and walked to the public transportation station, his mind was full of this "adventure" and the "Unified Entrance Examination for the Higher School of Magic" that was about to come in the sixty-first day.
While waiting for the public transport bus to arrive, Downey's gaze turned to Triumph Square, where a brass-colored statue stood in a double-breasted long gown and a top hat, holding a cane in his left hand and a pocket watch in his right.
「…… "Your Excellency Evans......" Downey muttered to himself, with admiration and a little "hatred" in his tone.
"No. 36 public transportation bus, the terminus is the 'Land of a Thousand Lakes'......" A mechanical cold female voice sounded, and a dark red public transportation bus stopped in front of Donnie.
Donnie cleared his mind and quickly walked into the traffic car, placing his school's badge in the induction area.
"Rentat Seventh School of Magic, there are only eight free rides left......" The mechanical voice sounded again, without any human emotion.
"Heart of Nature" is a magic school jointly organized by the Magic Council, the Elven King's Court, and the Holm Empire, and is the seventh elementary magic school in Rentat.
"It's really convenient to have artificial intelligence......" Downey thought subconsciously, "It's a pity that I didn't have the opportunity to see the combination of artificial intelligence and alchemical life that Ms. Heidi said......"
In his wandering thoughts, Donnie returned to his school outside the city, just in time for the evening class.
"Today, I will introduce you to the content of special relativity." Mr. Slington, who had a long white beard, said in a hoarse voice above, "This is Your Excellency Evans' profound exposition of space and time, with your current level, it is impossible to understand, you only need to master a few key knowledge points."
Donnie's facial muscles twitched again, and he looked back at the words "Only 61 days left until the unified entrance exam for the High School of Magic" written at the back of the classroom, and his expression began to become focused.
After finishing the evening class, Donnie, who was dizzy and dizzy, returned to his bedroom, lit a small magic crystal lamp, and prepared to practice.
""Evans Examination Syllabus", "Lucian's Secret Code", "Detailed Explanation of the Higher School of Magic Unified Entrance Examination Questions - Lucian Evans" ......" Downey read out the questions of these test questions word by word, and felt more and more headaches, "Evans, Lucian, Lucian, Evans......"
Although he knew that these were all done in the name of His Excellency Evans, he still gritted his teeth at these two words that appeared frequently.
After calming down for a while, he opened one of the books and decided to review and consolidate the History of Arcane and Magic first.
「…… In what year did His Excellency Lucian Evans propose matrix mechanics, and what is its significance?"
「…… How many highest honors has His Excellency Evans won such as the Arcane Award and the Holm Crown Award?"
……
"Lucian, Evans, Evans, Lucian......" Donnie rubbed his forehead, closed the book with a slight irritability, and opened another set of exercises.
「…… Please dictate the periodic table proposed and perfected by His Excellency Evans in its entirety."
「…… What is Lucian's constant, and what are the equations associated with it?"
Snap, Donnie slammed the book, picked up the water glass, drank his saliva, calmed down, and decided to change it to another one.
「…… What field equation is Evans field equation? What do you know about it?"
「…… Can Lucian's equation describe all microscopic particles?"
Oh!
A scream of sorrow, pain and resentment came out of Donnie's mouth, which spread far and wide in the night, and similar voices echoed in other dormitories.
Thank you all for your millions of alliances, thank you to the red stinky crows in the past few days, soaking in the fat sea and other friends
