St. George's is a church school with low tuition fees and special loans for students, but graduation does not include distribution, and students have to find their own way out.
Sulu has the experience of the previous life, and he was preparing to leave home early. Using the knowledge points sorted out as a stepping stone, he successfully attracted the attention of a certain laboratory.
At this point, he was eating a sandwich casually while he was dismantling the envelope.
Unexpectedly, there were two letters, one was thick, and the address was from Sulu's hometown.
He was stunned, opened the thin one first, and saw the beginning [Dear Mr. Portley, we are pleased to inform you...], he could not help but smile, knowing that this wave was stable.
"Wow, it's an invitation from Green Tree Fort Lab? Congratulations!"
Sean next to him just glanced at it and immediately yelled.
"Thank you!" Sulu didn't feel embarrassed about cheating, and smiled brightly.
Well, in the White Eagle Federation, intellectuals want to be promoted to become decent people in the upper-class circles. There are several occupations that can be called stepping stones, such as doctors, lawyers, scientists...
As for federal government employees? Except for a few occupations such as judges, ordinary civil servants are not even as famous as church personnel.
Fort Green Tree is well-known in the Federation. Applying for a research assistant by myself is a big step forward to the upper class. In the future, the weekly salary will be at least two gold dragons. The release of the achievements will definitely attract attention, continue to increase his social status, become a CEO, marry Bai Fumei, and reach the pinnacle of life. Just thinking about it makes me a little excited!
Beside, Sean was still nagging like an old woman: "If Beatrice knows that you got an offer from the institute, she will definitely regret it..."
"Can we not mention this?"
Sulu's face darkened.
As a young man, an energetic young man, in his college life, of course, he had tried to find a target, and Beatrice was one of them.
It's just... alas! Think about why your face hurts again
Sulu sent Sean away with a paralyzed face, lazily opened the second parchment envelope, and prepared to read the letter from his hometown.
No matter what, the family cannot hide from this level, and sooner or later there will be a showdown.
Holding the mentality that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, Sulu checked the envelope and found that the parchment paper was very thick. The pattern is like an antique.
He slowly opened the envelope and poured out the contents: a stack of book paper, which seemed to be torn from a certain book, besides this, there was a letter:
[To my dear brother:
The long night will eventually pass, no matter how you escape, you cannot escape the fate of the family... Yes, I am honored to inform you that the twilight of the gods is over, a new round of extraordinary waves is about to surge, and the family needs you the power of! Dark minions are spying on the whole world, please be careful!
Enclosed with the letter is a magic book page, which is my spoils of war. I hope you can keep it for me for a while. It is best to help me interpret it. You know, my ancient language is not very good.
Finally, I will be in the city of Nia in the near future, and I have a lot of things I want to talk to you about.
Your faithful brother, Rod Porterley]
"???"
Sulu raised his head, confused: "What do you mean? Extraordinary? Ragnarok? Isn't this a science-side world?"
No, I've already resigned myself to my fate, why does God still play this joke on me
"Well, if all this is true, at least I don't have to change my name to Potter..."
While complaining, Sulu really wanted to hit him to death.
When he first came here, he did have thoughts of suicide.
After all, a brand new and backward world, nothing adapts to it.
He strongly missed the previous world, the more convenient, safe, and entertainment-filled world, and he tossed and turned in the middle of the night many times, wet with tears.
Maybe... everything is just a dream, as long as you die, you can wear it back!
This idea kept struggling in his mind, but firstly Sulu was afraid of pain, secondly, he was afraid of death, and thirdly, he was even more afraid that this world was real, and he would not be able to wear it back after death, so his attempt would be a fool... Decided to treat this world as a novel experience, and if you don't take the initiative to seek death, just be a second life.
Anyway, how to say that sentence - mortals are mortal, others are afraid of death, but I still have some small expectations for the possibility of re-traveling after death.
But now... A letter from my hometown broke everything!
——I have clearly made a plan to go to the science side. Based on the experience of the previous life, I will become a theoretical scientist and start a small business. The rich will spend my life safely, but now you tell me that this is from the West. Spirit recovery
Are you kidding me? !
Do you want to be so pitiful? !
Sulu, whose face was covered with blood, picked up the letter paper angrily and wanted to tear it up.
"By the way... maybe, this is just a bad joke!"
Although I have seen a lot in the previous life, the world view of the traverser is still deeply rooted, and it is not so easy to break.
Sulu talked to himself, and spread out the pages of the book that came with the letter.
The pages of this book are also made of parchment paper, stacked thickly, and when spread out, they are as big as half a table. Obviously, the original book is a big tome.
After it was completely spread out, densely packed text was written on it, and there was also a pentagram formation ritual, and many annotations were drawn in the blank space.
"Sure enough, it's not the federal language, but... ancient Hebrew?!"
Sulu murmured.
Hebrew is the lingua franca of the Commonwealth today. It comes from the Chris Empire known as the rising sun that once colonized the Commonwealth. Ancient Hebrew is an ancient language thousands of years ago. After several evolutions, it is almost extinct. Very little research has been done on this.
But he can understand! This is what I was taught when I was a kid!
Sulu breathed heavily, and suddenly covered his forehead. Under the severe pain, clusters of memories emerged:
…
Old classrooms, dilapidated blackboards, and a middle-aged man with a serious face: "You must remember that ancient Hebrew is the common language of the extraordinary world. It has its own mysterious attributes and incredible power. It is the precursor of many rituals. A must have…”
As soon as the screen changed, we came to the scene of a fire somewhere.
"I will never forgive you... never!"
A teenager similar to Sulu, with tears in his eyes, yelled and ran away without looking back.
…
"Woo!"
Sulu rubbed his brows, digesting the memories that emerged: "It seems... this Sulu Botley came from a family of extraordinary people? But because of something, he fell out with his family and ran out to go to college alone? And because Hate the mystery, but plunge into the science major?"
He stroked the pages of the magic book in front of him: "What kind of world is this..."
Sulu felt that his understanding of the world seemed to be still at a very superficial stage, and a door had just been opened at this time.
"Black... witchcraft... making... a dead girl, no, it's a corpse girl!"
Combining the knowledge that had just surfaced, he barely recognized the pages of the magic book, and was suddenly startled: "Black witchcraft—Creation of the corpse girl? No matter how you look at it, how evil..."
At this moment, Sulu's eyes lit up, and a light curtain jumped out.
