The general guarding the city at the East City Gate sounds like a general, but it is actually a very humble official position, which is converted to the official position of the Xianglong Empire, that is, an eight-rank military position, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is an official with a sesame mung bean.
But it is such an official, and there are hundreds of people who take the exam, and after reporting his fate and being optimistic about the venue of the first exam, Long Yu returned to the house he found the day before, which is a vacant house in the civilian area, and Long Yu bought it for only three gold coins, of course, these three gold coins were also touched when he squeezed through when he went to the exam today.
After paying for the house, Long Yu got the key, the house is very simple, two floors, the entrance is the living room and kitchen, and there is a maid's room, and the second floor is three master bedrooms and a bathroom, the civilians in the holy city have no worries about food and clothing even if they do not work, and the various welfare policies of the municipal council ensure that these people who were born in the city eat, drink and Lazar.
In addition, those who have a little extra money can afford to hire goblin servants, and these goblins are slaves captured by the high elves in the early years, and the highly developed elven sanctuary has not yet left the slavery system, not to mention the Xianglong Empire, which is still in a semi-feudal and half-lord country.
Long Yu doesn't like slaves very much, and Long Yu didn't accept the goblin servant who proposed a gold coin to sell for a price from the house manager, not because he couldn't afford the money, but because he simply didn't like slaves, slaves and slaves were two different concepts.
The furniture in the house is in good condition, but it also saves Long Yu from arranging, after buying some daily necessities, Long Yu laid a more hidden formation in his room, and then, he also returned to his mustard seed space, the day after tomorrow is the time for the exam, during this time, he happened to learn the words and language of the high elves through the red lotus.
"What big brother, are you going to be an official" Listening to this extremely shocking news, Ye Wenhao's eyeballs almost popped out, he thought that Long Yu had gone out again and didn't know how to kidnap that high-level person, but he didn't expect that he was going to take the exam for a small official with the size of a sesame mung bean.
"Instead of meditating on it every day and thinking about it without results, it's better to start with the most practical way."
Long Yu flipped through the elven syllable pronunciation given by the red lotus, and said while reading silently.
"I'm still a little confused, how much time it will take."
Ye Wenhao shook his head, but Yi Shuihan was more supportive of Long Yu's approach, kidnapping was not a thing that could be done often, and besides, this was not the Tianlu Continent, which was full of countless unknowns, even that Agunis gave Long Yu a headache.
In a month and a half, the tracking of Long Yu has ended, as for Alice's whereabouts, the Holy King who has done his best does not want to pursue it, the desired result has already been obtained, there is no need to spend manpower to chase after him, and Cantona, while continuing to be his guard general, although he did not capture Alice and Long Yu back, but in this battle with the Temple, Cantona made a lot of efforts, which made the Holy King very satisfied, and at the same time, he firmly believed in his loyalty.
Time flies quickly, two days pass in a flash, early in the morning of the third day, Long Yu went to the clothing store early to get his own clothes, this is a relatively ordinary set of leather armor, it looks very beautiful, but the actual protection ability is not much, it is covered with a purple robe, plus leather armor, the whole person's temperament is suddenly different.
When Long Yu came to the examination room, the entrance had already begun, and he handed over the number plate in his hand, and Long Yu put it in from the heavily guarded gate, inside the gate was a slippery desk, and there was a sign on each table, and Long Yu's hand changed to a sign given by the guard, No. 27, Long Yu's eyes swept and found the seat in the corner.
The seats around were already full of people, and when Long Yu took a look, he found a lot of female high elves, most of the female high elves looked much more pleasing to the eye than men, first of all, the teeth were not so exaggerated, the skin and hair color were very delicate, plus the unique feminine atmosphere, unless it was really ugly and couldn't be seen, the others were actually fine.
It doesn't matter if Long Yu looks at it this time, but the women in the field can't stop looking at him, Long Yu is the appearance of the high elves who have changed on the basis of his appearance, the messy long brown hair has also been deliberately blown into a high ponytail today, pointed ears and a handsome face, although the fangs have some impact on the appearance, but in the eyes of the high elves, it is a really handsome guy.
After about a quarter of an hour, a bell rang, and the exam began, and a yellowish sheet of paper was placed in front of the candidates, all of which were multiple-choice questions, but the questions were actually some strange ones, such as what do you usually like to do, whether you like to drink, and for example, whether you want to charge a fee for a nobleman at the city gate.
Long Yu looked around, and sent a lot of people to write quite quickly, but he didn't put down the pen, there was a bigger desk in the hall, and there was an examiner in an official uniform sitting on the table, maybe the examiner was too boring, he even pulled over an exam paper, looked at the questions on it and answered.
Long Yu saw that the opportunity was coming, and silently chanted the spell in his mouth, and then twisted his fingers lightly, and twisted out a black particle the size of a grain of rice, the black particle churned on the clean exam paper, and turned into a small insect, the insect's wings fluttered, staggered and flew up, and then it landed on the examiner's desk, Long Yu's eyes closed, and the paper on the examiner's desk was clearly visible.
The combined application of transfiguration and puppetry, was used by Long Yu as a means of cheating, the examiner's age is not light, it seems that he should be an old official, his answers, naturally more in line with the requirements of the Holy City than Long Yu and the newcomers, changed the answers to several of the questions at will, and Long Yu handed over the papers.
The examiner glanced slightly, he didn't have much hope, but looking at this answer sheet that was similar to his own, he inadvertently glanced at Long Yu a few more times, this young man looked quite pleasing to the eye, and the examiner deliberately paid attention to the name on the head of the paper, but this name was written a little crookedly.
Long Yu smiled awkwardly, turned around and walked out, the words of the ancient elves are too difficult to write, most of them are some strange symbols, it is better to call it painting if it is writing.
The results of the preliminary examination will not come out until the next day, leaving from the examination room, Long Yu is not in a hurry to go back, but went to the downtown area, these days the tavern and restaurant are very lively, everyone talks about the open recruitment in the Holy City, the Holy City has not been so lively for a long time, the civilians are talking loudly, and they all seem to be gearing up to do a great job, and Long Yu came here just to learn the living habits of the elves more quickly
