Chapter 1 Application

It was the early summer in early June, and Bangta City, like Beijing City in the original world, had already experienced obvious heat.

Wearing a Senke Haier College graduate gown, Xu Yi, who wrapped himself up and down, only walked for a short distance on the street, and already felt the heat all over his body.

If he hadn't used magic to keep the small frost circle covering his entire body in advance, I'm afraid his whole body would be soaked with sweat now.

"Is it here?"

Xu Yi stopped and looked up at the 30-meter-high magic tower in front of him, with the ground floor covering more than 10,000 square meters. His eyes finally landed on the gate sign in front of the magic tower.

"Camilla Magic Tower"

That's right, it's here.

Looking at this sign, Xu Yi felt a trace of nervousness in his heart, and then laughed at himself.

Now his mood is as nervous as when he graduated from the university five years ago and applied for the first large domestic mechanical engineering company.

Xu Yi did not originally belong to this world.

Three years ago, he was one of the most valued mechanical engineers in the largest domestic mechanical engineering company on earth, and he was also well-known in the industry. Given that he was only twenty-four years old at the time, it could be said that it was extremely rare, and he could be said to have a bright future.

However, things are unpredictable. Just three years ago, during an engineering survey, he accidentally fell into the water, and when he woke up, he found that he had traveled to another world.

At first, Xu Yi thought that he should be like the protagonist in those novels, easily become a super magician in this world dominated by magic, and also set foot on the pinnacle of life.

Unfortunately, the reality is cruel.

It should be said that Xu Yi's magic talent is quite good. After he came to this world, it only took him half a year to get used to it. After completing the studies that the average student on this continent takes four years or more to complete, he is also called a rare magical genius by the teachers of the academy.

But the problem is that Xu Yi came to this world for too short a time, and the magicians in this world have been trained in magic since childhood. No matter how powerful Xu Yi's talent is, it is difficult to stand out immediately.

What's more, he doesn't have any foundation in this world. The Senke Haier Academy that he can get into is just a very ordinary magic academy in the Lampari Kingdom. The Kehaier Academy can do far better than its peers, but in the entire Sainz Continent, it is really not worth mentioning.

So after Xu Yi graduated from Suncor Haier College, he immediately faced the same embarrassment as many college graduates on the planet—graduation equals unemployment.

"No matter what, I must be successful in applying for the job today!" Xu Yi shook his head vigorously, putting aside the chaotic memory of his previous life caused by the nervousness in his heart, calmed down, took a deep breath, and walked towards Go inside the magic tower.

The great magician Camilla is one of the most powerful magicians in Bangta City. If he can get the opportunity to assist in magic research under his hands, Xu Yi believes that he will be able to quickly improve his magic power, so as to realize himself in this world. the value of.

Contrary to Xu Yi's expectations, the defense of the magic tower was not very strict. He walked into the gate with ease. Although several people wearing robes of different colors passed by, they were at most just curious. She glanced at him, but no one paid him any attention.

Seeing the hurried footsteps of these passers-by and the thoughtful expressions on their faces, Xu Yi couldn't help but think of the mechanical engineering institute he stayed at when he was still on Earth.

Most of the engineers in the research institute, including him, have this attitude on weekdays.

Thinking of this, the trace of tension in Xu Yi's heart suddenly disappeared.

He walked to the hidden door of the Magic Tower in three or two steps. Xu Yi didn't hesitate. He opened the door and was about to walk in when he suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps behind him. The door that closed automatically was pulled and kept open.

Turning his head to look, Xu Yi was slightly taken aback.

The person who was walking towards here was actually a beautiful young girl with a bright shawl and blond hair. Although she was also wearing a long cylindrical black robe, she still showed a slender and beautiful figure. The three-dimensional facial features, the soft-line face, and the confident smile on the face make the whole person full of youthful vigor.

In the past in the Engineering Research Institute, young and beautiful female interns like this girl appeared from time to time.

The girl saw that Xu Yi had been holding the door, waiting for her to approach. After a moment of stunned, she smiled at Xu Yi and nodded her thanks.

Xu Yi also smiled back, and when she walked into the door, she turned around and walked towards the Magic Tower Affairs Department that she saw after entering the door just now.

The girl behind saw Xu Yi simply leaving, and was stunned for a second, looked at Xu Yi's back with a deep meaning, and then turned to leave.

But she stepped into the magic hanging ladder in the center of the magic tower and went straight up to the top of the magic tower.

If Xu Yi knew more about this magic tower, he would definitely know that the top of this magic tower is the owner of this magic tower, that is, the exclusive area of ​​the great magician Camilla.

But Xu Yi didn't have time to think about it now. After he came to the Magic Tower Affairs Department to explain his intentions, the staff in the reception department quickly arranged for two people to interview him.

The process didn't go well.

When the two interviewers heard that Xu Yi graduated from Suncor Haier College, the expressions on their faces immediately changed.

Xu Yi is very familiar with this kind of change, because he has seen it many times in the past six months.

This is clearly contempt.

Suncor Haier Academy is not very famous in the Kingdom of Lampari. As a graduate of Sencor Haier Academy, Xu Yi will naturally not be valued.

"Uh... Xu... Xu is also right? Have you participated in the qualification examination of the Magician's Guild?" The slightly fatter interviewer on the right continued to ask.

This question is still kind to Xu Yi, but unfortunately Xu Yi can only shake his head in embarrassment.

He has only been in this world for three years, and it is not easy to graduate from Senke Haier College, and there is no time to pass the more stringent qualification certification examination of the Magician Guild.

What's more, the qualification assessment of the Magician's Union is expensive, and Xu Yiguang has done his best to pay for the tuition, living expenses, and the usual consumption of magic research at Senke Haier College. How could he still have so much spare money? do these.

Seeing Xu Yi shaking his head, the two interviewers looked at each other, and the slightly fatter interviewer coughed lightly with a trace of apology on his face.

"In that case, Mr. Xu Yi, thank you for coming to apply for the job, but I'm very grateful..."

Xu Yi's face sank. He knew very well that when the interviewer said this, it meant that his application for this job almost ended in failure.

But if this application is unsuccessful, because he has no money, he is afraid that he will have to find some other jobs to make ends meet.

And in this way, he is bound to leave magic research for a long time, I am afraid that his magic level will not rise but drop, which will have a great impact on future development.

Thinking of this, Xu Yi raised his hand to interrupt the interviewer.

"Sir, I don't think it's so important which college you graduate from? What you need is an assistant who can help the respected great magician Camilla's magic research, not a diploma from a magic college, Or a proof from the Magician's Guild, as long as I am competent enough, are you right?"

"Oh?" The slightly fat interviewer gave Xu Yi a funny look: "So young man, what do you have to prove that you have these abilities?"

Xu Yi took out a small box from the backpack he was carrying and handed it over.

"What is this?" The two interviewers looked at the box over and over for a while, wondering why.

"That's it." Xu Yi reached out and lightly tapped the box, and a trace of magic power penetrated through his fingers.

Although the two interviewers are not powerful magicians, as the subordinates of the great magician Camilla, they are naturally not unfamiliar with magic. They easily felt the magic power of Xu Yi, and there was a hint of surprise on their faces at the same time. color.

Although Xu Yi's magic power is weak, they can feel that this magic power is extremely pure and extremely stable, with almost no fluctuations.

It is difficult for even some powerful magicians to do this, let alone Xu Yi, a young man in his twenties.

Because of this magic power, the two interviewers suddenly had some changes in Xu Yi, and they looked more or less cautiously at the box in their hands.

After being injected with magic power by Xu Yi, the square box suddenly cracked from the middle, and a series of crisp and pleasant music floated out of the box.

The two interviewers took a closer look, but found that after the box was opened, it turned out to be a model piano.

This model is only the size of a person's palm, but it is very delicate, and even each key is clearly divided.

What is even more surprising is that these keys are actually sinking and playing with the sound of the music, as if a void hand is playing the piano, thus emitting music.

The two interviewers watched the piano play for a while, and then the slightly fatter interviewer put down the box and asked Xu Yi with a frown, "This is just a toy, how can you prove your magic power?"

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Sir, this is indeed a toy, but all the driving force of this toy comes from the magic circle I set up in it. Just inject a little magic power, and it can be activated automatically. Doesn't this prove to me? Magical power?"

In fact, the core part of this toy is indeed the magic circle, but what really plays a decisive role is Xu Yi's knowledge of mechanical engineering.

This toy was made in his spare time at Suncor Haier College. It combined part of his knowledge of mechanical engineering and the knowledge of magic circles he had learned in this world. He also used Xu Yi's hobby - playing the piano, It can be said that it is the fusion of the original world and this world, and the level of technology represented by it is really not low.

However, the two interviewers looked at the piano model and shook their heads at the same time.

"Young man, I'm sorry, although your toy is very innovative, it still can't meet our requirements, you..."

Xu Yi frowned and couldn't help showing a wry smile.

People on the Sainz Continent highly respect and pay attention to magic, but most of it is reflected in the destructive power of magic, and there is very little research on the application of magic. So far, no magician has seen his so-called " The level of technology contained in "toys" naturally makes it difficult to identify with his magical power.

Seeing that the slightly fatter interviewer was about to pronounce Xu Yi's "death penalty", the door suddenly creaked softly.

The slightly fat interviewer was interrupted by the sound, raised his head to look at the door in displeasure, but immediately exclaimed in surprise, "Miss Steele, why are you here?"

Xu Yi turned his head curiously, also surprised.

The Miss Steele who suddenly walked in was actually the young girl he met at the entrance of the Magic Tower.

After seeing Xu Yi, the girl's face also showed a hint of surprise, but she just nodded to Xu Yi, went straight to the interviewer's table, glanced at Xu Yi's application letter on the table, picked it up and read it, He nodded, looked at the piano model beside him, turned his head and asked Xu Yi, "You made this?"

Xu Yi nodded in surprise.

Judging from the relaxed movement of Miss Steele and the way the interviewer called her just now, I'm afraid her status is not low.

"Can I see it?" Steele pointed to the piano model.

"Of course." Xu Yi had a glimmer of hope in his heart, and once again demonstrated to Steele the process of playing the piano model.

"It's very interesting." After reading it, Steele showed a hint of interest, glanced at Xu Yi, and said to the two interviewers, "Just hire him."

The two interviewers looked at each other and said embarrassedly: "Miss Steele, he just graduated from Senke Haier College and has not passed the qualification certification examination of the Magician Guild. It seems... does not meet the requirements?"

Steele waved his hand casually: "His mind is very active, which is much better than those old magicians whose heads are frozen. Maybe he can help grandpa instead."

Hearing what Steele said, the two interviewers looked at each other helplessly, and the fatter interviewer coughed lightly and turned to Xu Yi and said, "This... Mr. Xu Yi, congratulations on passing the application. When can you come to work here?"

Xu Yi was overjoyed and looked at Steele gratefully, only to find that Steele didn't look at him at all, but focused on the piano model.

It seems to her that this piano model is much more interesting than the designer Xu Yi.

Xu Yi had no choice but to turn to the interviewer and nodded with a smile.

"anytime."
