Transcendent Ember

Chapter 1 Interview
Ding! ——

The sky was getting bright, and when the alarm clock rang, Zhang Jichuan straightened his back and jumped up from the bed.

Dressing, washing, finished quickly, and then rushed out with a backpack.

"This hotel is cheap enough, but the downside is that it's too far away from the interview site. Well, it's not the hotel's downside, it's mine, because I don't have money..." He turned on his phone's navigation, followed the instructions and rushed to the station while waiting Che thought,
"Today's interview opportunity is very precious, we must seize it!

"It's still unbelievable that I, a graduate from an ordinary university in a third-tier city, would have the opportunity to interview a teacher from a top university in a first-tier city...

"This is probably the most important opportunity of my life!

"If you miss this time, a history student like me from an ordinary school, I'm afraid I'm going to answer that old saying——

"Graduation means unemployment!

"Come on! — Hey, there are too many people in the car, right? Can it only be said that it is a first-tier city?"

Squeezing onto the bus, Zhang Jichuan noticed an interesting phenomenon. Apart from ordinary people like him, there were also some "people" with painted faces, pointed ears, horns on their heads, and even tails on the bus.

"So realistic makeup and props..." He quickly looked away, not wanting others to misunderstand that he was a rude person, but sighed in his heart,
"As expected of a big city, people are very tolerant. If you go out wearing this kind of 'strange makeup' in our small city, you will definitely be watched and pointed..."

When the bus arrived at the station, Zhang Jichuan arrived at Yujing University.

"Yujing University? Is that the name?" He looked at the four flamboyant characters on the stone tablet in front of the school gate, and felt puzzled in his heart.

Take out your phone to confirm, the location is correct and the name is correct.

"Did I remember the school name wrong? Or did I remember the school's alias? Huh? Why does this phone look different? I didn't notice it just now... Oops, time is running out, I can't manage so much! "

After inquiring about the location of the interview with the security guard, Zhang Jichuan strode forward, passing the young students one by one, and ran to a conference room on the ninth floor of the Government Affairs Building.

"Are you here for an interview?" As soon as you got out of the elevator, you heard a handsome young man in formal attire and gold-rimmed glasses asking.

Zhang Jichuan nodded, and the man said, "Come with me."

He took Zhang Jichuan to a small conference room, where there were already many people.Hearing the sound of pushing the door, everyone sat upright in unison, with serious expressions.

"Go and sit over there!" The young man pointed to the innermost seat in the conference room and said to Zhang Jichuan. After he took his seat, he said, "Hello, everyone. I happen to be free and will participate, I hope everyone can play well.”

"hiss!--"

There was a sound of gasping in the meeting room, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.

Assistant Bai smiled and didn't say anything consoling. He pulled out a form as if by magic, and said to the interviewers: "Now, let's make a registration first, and tell me the department you want to interview. You first bring it on……"

Assistant Bai said to a lady with blue eyes and sharp ears with a tail sitting next to him.

Seeing it in the back row, Zhang Jichuan was deeply surprised: "No, this is a bit too tolerant, isn't it? Is it possible to wear such makeup when you come to an interview?"

The blue-eyed and sharp-eared lady spoke with a voice like a young bird coming out of the valley: "I...I want to interview the Department of Archeology!"

"Department of Archeology, okay, next!" Assistant Bai asked while recording.

The second one is a slightly fat man: "I also want to interview the Department of Archeology!"

"I am also from the Department of Archeology!"

"Archaeology Department!"

"Of course it's the Department of Archeology!"

…………

…………

"What... the situation?" In the back row, Zhang Jichuan was very puzzled, "Since when did the Department of Archeology become popular?"

He thought of the archeology department of his alma mater, which could be called a three-none major with no funds, no teachers, and no students. It was only supported by a few old professors.

"Could it be that all the interviewees are rich or expensive? Don't care about income or future at all? Only care about your own interests?"

Soon, it was Zhang Jichuan's turn to register, and Assistant Bai looked at him: "What about you, which department do you want to interview for?"

"I want to interview." The moment Zhang Jichuan spoke, he suddenly realized that there was a mistake in his guess——

"Among the other interviewees, there are people who are dressed very plainly like me, and they are definitely not from rich and powerful families. But they all chose the Department of Archeology without hesitation. Could it be that the Department of Archeology at Yujing University earns a lot?"

The more Zhang Jichuan thought about it, the more reasonable he became. Over the years, the country has become rich and powerful, and it has paid more and more attention to the sense of cultural belonging. Archeology can satisfy this to a certain extent.

"Yujing University is a top university in a first-tier city. It may be that it has a good relationship with the higher authorities and knows the direction of the wind, so the archeology department pays well. Give it a go!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Jichuan, who was planning to interview the Department of History or Literature, changed his words very decisively: "Department of Archeology!"

As a student of the Department of History, Zhang Jichuan is also quite familiar with the Department of Archeology next door, and has even taken courses in the Department of Archeology.

"Haha." After the registration, Assistant Bai smiled, looked at the interviewers and said, "You all want to join the Department of Archeology? Then you have to make good use of it. Only the best people can join the Department of Archeology, and those who are slightly inferior Well, I will be transferred to another department. Of course, if you don’t perform well, you can only say that you are sorry. Well, come with me to the interview room now, and I wish you good luck!"

Assistant Bai led all the interviewees to a big conference room next door, one side of the conference room was already full of school leaders who were very old, well-dressed and with thinning hair.
The interviewers filed in and took their seats one by one.

An old man sitting in the middle, with the word 'Principal' written on the sign on the table, his beard and hair are all white, but combed neatly, put on his glasses and gestured: "Let's get started!"

The group face begins!
Zhang Jichuan clenched his fists and was meditating on the group face skills he found online: "Speak actively and show that you are very organized."

But at this moment, he was confused by a question from the head of the history department: "Who is to say, what is the dividing line between 'extraordinary history' and 'general history of the world'?"

"What?" Zhang Jichuan suspected for a moment that he was hallucinating.

But someone raised his hand immediately. It was a man dressed in extraordinary clothes and a little fat: "Hello leaders, my name is Gao Suo, and I will answer this question. The director asked this question with a trap! Extraordinary History refers to the 'upper The history of a season of civilization' or 'God's civilization', while the general history of the world refers to the history from the discovery of 'extraordinary objects' by the 'forerunner Li Qingcang' to the present. There is an entire 'age of ignorance' in between. How can there be any dividing line Woolen cloth?"

"What is he talking about?" Zhang Jichuan looked over in astonishment, and saw that the man who called himself Gao Suo had a confident face, while the interviewers next to him were a little annoyed, as if they hadn't grabbed the first opportunity to speak.

Zhang Jichuan thought it was absurd, but the head of the history department nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad!"

"Not bad?" Zhang Jichuan felt very absurd, "What are they talking about? What extraordinary history? What divine civilization? What extraordinary items? Is this a farce?"

At this time, the head of the history department continued to ask: "Speaking of the savage age, do you know the characteristics of the savage age?"

"I know!" A small, beautiful lady quickly raised her hand and said quickly, "In the period of ignorance, all races including humans, giants, goblins, sea races, and spirit races were still very weak. The masters of the universe are 'gods and demons', and their honorable names include three-way gods and demons, five-qi gods and demons, mountain-moving gods and demons, and heaven-stealing gods and demons."

The dean of the Department of Literature then asked: "So, how did they withdraw from the long river of history?"

"They traveled far away to the depths of the 'covered soil' and never returned, Director!" A man with a good appearance hurriedly replied.

The dean of the history department and the dean of the literature department nodded one after another, expressing their satisfaction.

"Speaking of the various ethnic groups." The head of the Department of Political Science took over the topic and asked, "Who will talk about the current situation of the various ethnic groups in the world?"

"I'm coming, I know!" The blue-eyed and sharp-eared lady seized the opportunity and said like a machine gun, "Since the founding of the nation in 236 years of the Extraordinary Calendar, human beings have been divided and reunited, ups and downs, and now there are five human nations in the world. They are the Ancient Moon Kingdom where we are located, and the Hongji Kingdom, Xinhua Dynasty, Caesar Dynasty, and Nicholas Dynasty.
"In addition, the giants have occupied the Langcang Plain; the Spirit Race has occupied the area around the Holy Snow Mountain; the Sea Race has spread across the four seas of the Seven Seas; and we goblins, except for some who stubbornly stay in Lailong Mountain and Tianxing Forest, the rest Some have entered the city, mixed with humans, and become residents of the five major countries."

"It's a little more obvious, but it's already great!" The head of the political department laughed.

Questions were thrown from the mouths of the school leaders, and were quickly answered by the interviewers. The atmosphere in the meeting room was hot. However, none of this had anything to do with Zhang Jichuan.

He sat quietly in a corner of the meeting room, from dazed to numb, he pinched his thigh fiercely, and it hurt a lot.

"It's not a dream, then."

Excluding all the impossible, there is an extremely absurd but imminent answer: "I have crossed!"

No wonder, the name of the school is Yujing University, and what I remembered yesterday was not the name at all!

No wonder, the phone will change its appearance!
No wonder.
Zhang Jichuan tilted his head slightly, looked over several men and women, and looked at the blue-eyed and sharp-eared lady, her tail protruded from the gap between the seat backs, wagging unconsciously.

"So, the ones I saw on the bus are not makeup or props, but real... goblins!"

"Einstein and other bosses are not wrong. The possibility of time and space travel really exists. But why did I meet it?" He felt a bit at a loss. In a strange world, a strong loneliness almost overwhelmed his mind. devour.

"Hey, today's interview is over." After the initial panic and confusion, Zhang Jichuan considered his situation, "I have traveled to this world, and I have not inherited anyone's memory. I don't know anything about this world, and I can answer a single question." not coming up"

He was about to give up, but at this moment, the head of the Department of Archeology, who was sitting on the left of the principal, asked suddenly, "Does anyone know about Edward Jenner?"

The conference room suddenly fell silent. Interviewers, look at me and I look at you, but no one speaks.

"Director Darcy." The middle-aged man sitting on the principal's right and whose ID card says 'Deputy Principal' said, "You mean the extraordinary item 'Edward Jenner's Syringe' newly excavated by the Department of Archeology mentioned Edward Jenner?"

Director Darcy nodded. After thinking for a while, he stretched out his hand to grab it in the void. Suddenly, like a clever magic trick, a thin and long metal syringe appeared in his hand.

"!!!" Zhang Jichuan's eyes shook. Although he had already guessed from the words 'extraordinary' and 'gods and demons' that this world might be different from before time travel, he still couldn't help but be amazed when the miracle appeared in front of him so intuitively. .

Director Darcy's pupils opened, and an invisible soul force permeated the air, establishing a soul connection with everyone in the conference room. Immediately, all the interviewers saw some information:
"Edward Jenner's syringe, unidentified!

"That year, Edward Jenner kicked off the eradication of smallpox, saving countless lives from the virus
"Extraordinary ability: unknown!

"Negative Ability: Unknown!

"Unable to bind for now!"

"Take a look." Director Darcy looked at the interviewers with anticipation in his eyes, "Do you know any information about him?"

The vice-principal shook his head: "Director Darcy, don't embarrass these young people, we have already gone to the 'Association of Archaeologists' to verify that none of the previous supernatural objects recorded information related to Edward Jenner. "

Director Darcy, who had long brown hair like seaweed, shook his head slightly. He was tall and tall, but his tone was very light and indifferent: "Not all supernatural objects may be recorded in the Association of Archaeologists."

"Hahaha" the head of the history department laughed, "Director Darcy is really obsessed with supernatural items. When interviewing a new teacher, he was still thinking about appraising supernatural objects."

"Yes, yes.", "Director Darcy is our role model!", "Let us be ashamed!"

Several directors laughed together.

Director Darcy didn't take it seriously and looked at the interviewers expectantly, but
After a while, no one spoke.

"Hey" Director Darcy sighed, gradually losing hope in his heart.But at this moment, a hand was raised,

"I think... I might know!"
