Eli was stunned for a moment, and it took a few seconds to find the relevant information from his memory.
It turns out that although he is a librarian, he does not seem to be a formal one. He is just a temporary worker. Every year, the library recruits a lot of such people, and then conducts unified testing to retain the suitable ones.
During this period, their wages were not much.
"In another world, is there still an internship period?" This was something Eli didn't expect.
Browsing through the memory again, I found that the test was to test some general knowledge and some various questions. The difficulty was not low, and there was a lot of content. The overall difficulty was quite good.
But here comes the problem. The original person has only been in the library for less than a month.
He only knows general writing and has no understanding of those things at all.
In other words, he will definitely be eliminated!
Seeing Eli's frowning expression, Kate couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, raised her head, her golden hair flying back, and said with great melancholy:
"Yes, this time there are only two left. There were three before. Hey, it's too difficult. I don't know if I can pass it. If I can't pass, I'll be doomed!"
"What should I do!"
…
Kate sounded worried, and the corners of Eli's mouth twitched.
What do you call worry?
I see a trace of worry in your eyes. It is clearly a mixture of joy and expectation, and even a trace of excitement. Where is the trace of worry?
However, this guy does seem to have the capital to say this. In Eli's impression, Kate always seems to have the most knowledge among all temporary administrators, and she has always ranked first in the occasional small tests.
As annoying as Kate is, Eli really needs to think about testing this.
He'd better pass this test if he doesn't want to lose his respectable job.
Working in the Imperial Library, as long as he gets a regular job, may not allow him to live a luxurious life, but it will be enough for him to move out of that narrow, shabby slum.
However, it was only three months. Considering that he had to work every day, as well as other things, and was busy with food, it was by no means an easy task to accumulate enough knowledge to pass the test during this period of time.
There were also books, which he could only look at occasionally while working in the library. Apprentices like them couldn't just borrow books, and the previous note was a complete accident.
"Well, I remember that there seemed to be a zero-ring witchcraft in that notebook, quick memory." Eli suddenly remembered the notebook.
According to the notes, if you advance to the first level wizard apprentice, you can start learning witchcraft.
Quick memory is one of the most basic zero-level witchcraft in the wizard apprenticeship stage. It allows people to quickly memorize knowledge and is one of the foundations for wizards to learn and master a large amount of knowledge.
On top of this, there are first-level barrier-free reading, second-level soul reading... and very importantly, this witchcraft is very simple, almost one of the simplest witchcrafts. As long as you advance to the wizard apprenticeship, you can basically Can be mastered quickly.
The only obstacle is that in three months, no, at least half a month must be reserved for reading, so what is left for him is two and a half months. During this time, he must become a wizard apprentice to have a chance to stay here. .
After becoming an official librarian, you will suddenly become very stable. As long as you don't commit any crimes, you will almost never be fired. This is very suitable for Eli who only wants to thrive.
"So, let's advance to the first-class apprenticeship first." Eli looked at the bookshelf in front of him and made up his mind.
At this time, it was almost eight or nine o'clock in the morning, and the door of the library slowly opened.
Gentlemen and ladies walked into the library one after another dressed in neat clothes. Most of the clothes were very gorgeous, and I don't know how much better than Eli's original linen clothes.
In this era, reading is a luxury thing. The poor do not have that energy or money, only those rich gentlemen and ladies can do it.
As for nobles, they generally don't come here. They usually have their own library, and they only come here when they want to check out some unavailable books.
On the other side, Kate seemed a little disappointed when she saw Eli didn't respond after hearing what he said. But when she saw the library door opened, she had no choice but to give up the idea of continuing to chat with Eli and turned around to leave.
…
Time passed by as Shasha turned the pages of books.
The gentlemen who were reading looked at the sun setting outside the library and knew that it was almost time, so they handed the books to the administrators around them one by one, and then left one by one.
Eli watched them leave one by one with a smile on his lips.
Today went well.
He did it exactly as he remembered, without any mistakes.
Just when he was about to take off his clothes and leave, suddenly, there was a clicking sound. Eli looked over and saw a man in black robe walking in.
Maester Lemon, the person who manages the librarians in the library.
He has long brown hair and black pupils, and he is holding a thick book in his hand.
"The temporary librarian is here to stay."
Following his words, most of the librarians in the library slowly left, leaving only a dozen or so who gathered towards Bachelor Lemon, including Eli and Kate.
"Yes." Bachelor Lemon nodded with satisfaction and then said.
"After three months, we will test your abilities. The top two can continue to stay here, and the others will leave here, and then there will be a reward of Silver Tower."
The currency of the Byrne Empire is divided into gold tals, silver tals, and copper tals, and the advancement rate is one hundred.
One silver tal is what a normal laborer can earn in a month. As for Eli, his monthly salary at this time is fifty copper tals, which is barely enough for him to survive.
As for the official administrator, there are five silver tals in a month, not counting the tips that the gentlemen and ladies may give. This is one of the important reasons why Eli is determined to stay here.
Librarians are really well-paid people.
After hearing what Bachelor Lemon said, everyone's eyes lit up, but at the random thought of failing to pass, their mood suddenly dropped again, and the atmosphere was a little strange.
Lemon seemed to just make an announcement, and then turned around and left, leaving only dozens of temporary workers standing there.
Eli looked around for a week. Most people were discussing in groups. The most "pessimistic" among them was undoubtedly Kate, whom Eli was familiar with.
At this time, he was standing between a few people, sighing and saying: "It's so difficult this time, I feel like I'm hanging on, there are only two people, actually one silver coin is quite good..."
As if feeling Eli's gaze, Kate raised her head and glanced around, and saw Eli who was looking right at him. His eyes lit up and he walked towards Eli.
When Eli saw it, he immediately pretended not to see it and hurried back to the locker room. He joked that he didn't want to hear the same trick three times.
After changing his clothes, Eli walked out of the library.
On the way home, Eli looked at the silver moon in the sky, as well as the carriages and poor people wearing linen clothes passing by, and realized that everything had changed.
"Don't waste time, wait until you are strong enough, then talk about other things." Eli murmured, looking at the silver moonlight.
He has not forgotten that there is extraordinary power in this world.
