In a separate office in the Secret Library.
Squeak, squeak, squeak ~ The sound of tentacles kept coming out.
The desk and the surrounding floor were piled with documents. A certain young man was multitasking and dealing with these documents at an extremely fast speed … As he became more proficient in the business, more tentacles came out to help.
At most, they could reach 16 times the speed.
Under such high-intensity work, the young man's hair kept falling down from his head.
In order to ensure that the employees could work 24 hours a day, each office was equipped with a bed and bathroom.
On the bed in the room, a pair of black sheep's hooves were constantly changing the position of its legs.
"Nicholas, is this how you humans live every day? It's too boring … "
"It's just work, I can't help it.
Under normal circumstances, knights have more free time, but our knights are a little special. Usually, everyone will take on some investigation missions that involve outside the city to solve some problems with nearby Hybrid Demons.
Just wait for me, I'll be done soon!
This can't be helped. If I help Captain Hugo take care of these things in advance, I can go to the Secret Library sooner. "
"You … really plan to be a teacher there?"
"Yes, to a large extent, my interest was piqued by you.
Especially the [Great Library] that you mentioned.
Didn't you say it before? If I can get the title of [Associate Professor], I will have access to the hidden Demonic Book stored in the library, and there are other very interesting books.
The Secret Library is a special school connected to dozens of old kings. The [Great Library] should be one of the best in the Hybrid Demon Circle … The more I think about it, the more I can't wait to go and take a look. "
"If you can really get the job, I'll go with you.
'Origin' and the identity of an outstanding graduate should be enough for me to apply for the 'Visiting Scholar' right. "
"Okay, I haven't been there yet. If Miss Sally can lead the way, it will save me a lot of time."
Sally touched the horns on her forehead. "The only thing I'm worried about now is that if Pope knows that you want to teach in the Secret Library, he might secretly interfere."
"It's not a big problem. Pope's personality is quite good.
Even if he interferes, it will be within the school's regulations, and the difficulty will increase … If I can't pass, it's just because I'm not capable enough. "
As they chatted, Han Dong finally finished correcting the last stack of documents.
Ever since the end of the London game, Han Dong had not truly rested (aside from the Heart of the Tree in the Black Forest, where he was soaked in the nutrient solution with the Goat Mother).
After a period of high-intensity work, an unprecedented sense of fatigue swept through his entire body. He could no longer block the tiredness signals transmitted by his brain.
"Sally, I need to sleep for a while …"
As soon as Han Dong got up, his body fell forward.
Just as his head was about to hit the ground.
A series of soft purple tentacles wrapped around his body, slowly dragging him towards the bed … The originally hard wire bed had now become abnormally soft, and at the same time, it emitted a body fragrance that was better than any perfume in the world.
He slept for two days and two nights.
Han Dong also had a dream. He dreamed that he was walking in a boundless black forest. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find the border and gradually lost himself in it.
Gradually, he no longer rejected this forest and slowly settled down here.
He nibbled on fresh and juicy tree bark or colorful mushrooms, and gradually became one with the forest. He could even easily merge his body with the soft tree trunks and directly absorb the juices within.
Although only two days had passed in reality, this dream made Han Dong feel as if months or even years had passed.
Within a few minutes of waking up, he was still unable to accept reality.
However, his mental and physical state had been completely replenished, and even the hair that had fallen off during work had grown back … At the same time, Han Dong's entire body was wrapped in a sticky liquid that was similar to the one secreted by the trees in his dream. It was a sweet and delicious sticky liquid that could replenish nutrients.
Sally was sleeping soundly on the one-meter-wide wire bed, and the places where the two of them were stuck together even had a filamentous substance between flesh and liquid.
…
Ten minutes later.
Han Dong carried a small mountain of documents and once again came to Captain Hugo's office.
This time, Sally, who was following beside him, had a black veil covering her face, and was a little shy.
"Thank you for your hard work, Nicholas ~ I'm a little embarrassed to let you work as soon as you come back.
Originally, there were still some things that needed you to deal with, but Mr. Newton sent an invitation letter and hopes that you can make a trip to the [Holy Ring].
I suggest that you go there as soon as possible.
Currently, the [Steam Knights] are very important to the reform of the Holy City, and you seem to have some technical cooperation with Mr. Newton. "
"Okay, I'll go there now."
Compared to continuing to look at the mountain of documents, Han Dong was more inclined to meet with Mr. Newton.
Also.
Han Dong was more interested in the [Holy Ring] that was currently above the parliament and was the pinnacle of the Holy City … At the same time, he signed a technical cooperation contract with Mr. Newton.
…
[Holy Ring]
The special building structure embedded in the [Steam Knights – Machinery Faith] was originally the main activity area of the [Steam Knights – Machinery Faith]. Now, it had become the center of power and the area where leaders discussed important policies.
Relying on Mr. Newton's letter, Han Dong easily passed through the various checkpoints and came to the Holy Ring area again.
Other than the core teachers wearing the Machinery Faith's uniform, there were also some special missions here, such as former high-ranking councilors, contacts of various knight orders, and so on.
"Nicholas, you're finally here.
Captain Hugo really doesn't know how to cherish excellent members. You're the biggest contributor to the great expedition, and he actually made you do the basic work as soon as you came back.
However, your mental state is far better than I expected.
The cooperation should be able to proceed smoothly. "
A familiar voice and heavy footsteps came together.
Mr. Newton, who was wearing a noble's wig, took the initiative to welcome him. Although he had a smile on his face, it made Han Dong feel very uncomfortable.
Sally also held his arm tightly, as if she could smell danger from this human.
"Who is this lady?"
"Sally, I met her outside the city …"
However, before Han Dong could finish his introduction, Mr. Newton showed a very kind smile and invited a mechanical assistant.
"The following conversation involves technical secrets.
I hope Miss Sally can rest in the VIP room. We'll provide all the services we can. "
Just as Sally was about to refuse, Han Dong whispered in her ear.
"Sally, you can go to the VIP room first … Feel free to contact me if there's anything. I shouldn't take too much time here. I'll come and find you later. "
"Okay ~"
As Sally was led away by the mechanical servant.
Mr. Newton's thick and strong arm immediately landed on Han Dong's shoulder.
"I've already heard about your outstanding performance during the expedition from the commander. Mr. Black White's eyesight is too good … If you were my student, how good would that be?
I called you here this time to deepen the 'technical cooperation' between us.
Our investor happens to have time today, so we can talk about things that we couldn't talk about before. "
