"Gods above, isn't that Master Akali?"
"It's true!
It really is Master Akali!
Why is she here? "
"Idiot!
Master Akali is the manager of the Magic Communication Department, what's so strange about her being here? "
"That's not right, hasn't Master Akali been working with the dragons on the Hyperspace Communication Network all these years? Why would she be here?"
"Perhaps she's here to test us?"
"What a joke!
How could we need Master Akali to personally take care of our exam?
"That's right … …"
… …
Lucian didn't listen to the discussions around him at all. He was completely focused on the person who suddenly came out of the backstage.
It really was Master Akali!
In a sense, Master Akali was the same as Miss Lenoir, they were both idols in Lucian's heart.
However, the meaning of this idol was completely different from Lenoir's idol.
Lucian loved and admired Lenoir, but he worshipped Master Akali!
Master Akali was the person who created the Magic Communication Network and laid the foundation for modern Magic Communication. She was an important figure who stood at the peak of this era!
Before her, the people of Sines could only rely on manpower to communicate with people in other places.
But after Master Akali and New Flyer built the Magic Communication Network that covered all of Sines, people could instantly transmit information to places hundreds of kilometers away, or even thousands of kilometers away!
Compared to before, the current communication method allowed people to enter a whole new world.
It was because of the comprehensive application of the Magic Communication Network that the Sines ushered in an era of "information explosion" in recent years.
People no longer had to be like before, cooped up in their hometowns for the rest of their lives, unable to receive any information from the outside world.
The current people only needed to sit at home to know what was happening on the Sines Continent. They could even communicate with people who were thousands of kilometers away without any hindrance.
This magical method of communication that people in Sines could never imagine before could be popularized in most Sines over the years. Apart from the unremitting efforts of New Flyer and these countries, of course, it couldn't be separated from Master Akali's important role in this.
Moreover, it was said that Master Akali had been researching the problem of Magic Signal Transmission in recent years, trying to break through the current limit of Magic Signal Transmission and achieve the ideal of infinite distance transmission.
If this technological breakthrough could be achieved, it meant that people could directly communicate with the Magic Cloud Continent tens of thousands of kilometers away in the future!
Of course, this was the main reason why Master Akali and New Flyer were so focused on researching this technology Transmission.
The Frestech Chamber of Commerce and many other countries had been developing the Demon Cloud Continent and the other newly discovered continents, so if they could use long distance communication, it would be countless times more convenient.
Lucian excitedly looked at Master Akali walking onto the stage and his heart couldn't calm down at all.
Even if he couldn't pass the second test, it was worth it just to be able to see Master Akali in person!
Akali, who was standing on the stage, heard the enthusiastic discussion of the audience. She glanced around and saw the excited expression on everyone's face. She couldn't help but laugh.
Although she was already a middle-aged woman in her fifties, because she had been receiving help from the elves and her own magic strength was strong enough, her face didn't look much different from a young woman in her thirties.
This smile still showed some of the playfulness of the past.
"Everyone be quiet." Akali raised her hand and spoke in a loud voice.
The audience quickly quieted down, and everyone's eyes were focused on her.
"I know that you are surprised by my appearance here."
Akali revealed a faint smile before continuing, "That's right, in a normal situation, I wouldn't come here myself because this isn't something I should be responsible for.
But this time, the situation is special. I need to recruit research assistants, so I came here myself. "
"Ah?"
The audience was in an uproar.
Master Akali needed to recruit a group of research assistants?
And from the looks of it, she was going to recruit from their group?
God above!
This was simply a cake that fell from the sky!
Everyone looked at Akali with shining eyes, wishing that they could all run in front of her and recommend themselves.
Lucian also felt his heart beating faster, and his eyes were full of expectation as he looked at Akali on the stage.
If he could be chosen by Master Akali, even if he died now, it would be worth it!
No, no, no, of course he couldn't die. He still had to stay by Master Akali's side and do his best to study the magic communication network!
Akali had to raise her hands again, indicating that everyone should be quiet again.
"Originally, the magic communication department had prepared a batch of exam questions for this second test, but because of my special request, I prepared another batch of questions for you.
If you can pass the test, you will be qualified to become my research assistant.
If you can't pass, you can try the batch of exam questions that were prepared for you before.
If you can pass, you will also have the opportunity to become a researcher or research assistant in our department. "
This explanation was very clear, but it still made everyone a little confused.
According to Master Akali's words, didn't it mean that her requirements for her research assistants were different from the requirements of the magic communication department of the Magic Research Institute of New Flying Chamber of Commerce?
"Alright, now our staff will distribute the questions that I have prepared for you and take you through the assessment.
For those who pass, I will have an interview with you. "
Akali clapped her hands, and two staff members of the New Flyer, who were already prepared, held the thick written test papers and handed them out one by one.
Lucian took a breath and was about to refocus his mind and concentrate on the test when he suddenly heard Akali on the stage speak again.
"Is there a man named Lucian among you?" he asked.
Where is he? "
Lucian was startled and looked up in amazement, only to see Akali's gaze sweep over.
"It's me … Master Akali, did you call me?" Lucian pointed at himself in confusion.
The rest of the candidates for the second test looked at Lucian in unison, their faces full of surprise.
"You're Lucian?"
Akali asked, but turned her head to look at the person behind her. After getting confirmation from that person, she nodded at Lucian and said, "Take the test well." Then she turned and left.
Lucian was stunned.
The other candidates all looked at Lucian in surprise, their expressions full of doubt, envy, and jealousy …
"Master Akali knows me?
How is that possible … "
After a while, when the test paper was handed to him, Lucian was still at a loss.
After receiving the test paper and being in a daze for a while, he gradually came to his senses.
"Forget it, take the test well first, don't think about those messy things."
Lucian patted his face to wake himself up and focus his attention on the test paper in front of him.
Lucian had originally thought that Master Akali, as the most powerful person in the field of magical communication networks on Sines, would have specially prepared the test questions to be extremely difficult.
But when he really did the test questions, he found that these questions did not involve too much theoretical knowledge. Instead, they focused more on the most basic theories. Although the requirements were very detailed, the difficulty was not particularly high.
The only thing that was special was that these questions involved many aspects of practical application. If one did not have a certain foundation in practical experience, it would be very difficult to complete them.
Fortunately, when Lucian was studying at Phillip Academy, in order to reduce the burden on his parents and to improve his living environment, as well as to strengthen his practical ability, he often took the initiative to look for short-term jobs in setting up magical communication networks. He was very experienced in this field.
Therefore, these questions might be very troublesome for the average student, but for Lucian, they were considered easy.
After the written test was over, the staff of the New Flyer quickly prepared for the practical test.
In the previous test, there weren't that many people who were eliminated, but in the second stage of the practical test, the difference in practical ability was quickly revealed, so the number of people who were eliminated quickly increased.
After the written test, there were over a hundred people left, but after the practical test, including Lucian, there were less than twenty people left.
"The rest of you, come with me to see manager Akali.
Manager Akali will personally interview you and if the manager is satisfied, you can stay. "
A staff member of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce led the twenty of them into a large passenger Magic Car that had clearly been prepared beforehand.
This large passenger Magic Car drove away from the exam site and headed west, heading to the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's main base on the west side of Frestech City.
Lucian looked at the factories outside the window and his heart was filled with excitement.
Although he had seen the New Flyer headquarters countless times in the Magic Illusion, this was his first time seeing it with his own eyes and entering it.
This place was incomparably mysterious and sacred to the countless people of the Sines.
Because this was the headquarters of the New Flyer, it was known as the birthplace of the magic machine industry on the continent. It was also known as the heart of the Sines.
Every action here could affect the situation of the entire continent.
Lucian looked at the slightly old factories outside, but his heart was filled with respect.
The magic machine industry that covered the continent and changed the entire continent had developed bit by bit from here.
Looking at them, it was like seeing the history that made one's blood boil.
But Lucian didn't spend that much time looking around. After the large passenger Magic Car drove them through several streets in the main base, they quickly arrived at a large building complex and stopped.
"This is the company's Academy of Magic."
Hearing the staff member's introduction, everyone showed a look of admiration.
This place was the Magic Research Institute of New Flying Chamber of Commerce that represented the most advanced magic machine industry on the continent!
After Lucian stopped for a bit, he was led by the staff of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce into a seven story building.
Finally, everyone entered a large conference room on the third floor.
Other than seeing Master Akali sitting in the main seat of the conference room, Lucian actually saw another person in the conference room that surprised him.
