It's not that difficult to open a hospital in another world, right?

Chapter 38 This librarian job is a physical one!

Gretel's journey as a mage began in peace.

The strife, slaps in the face, the oppression of common people by noble children... that I had seen in the online articles in my previous life were nothing.

Gretel walked from Heartland City to the Mage Tower. Along the way, he imagined countless common plots in his mind, but unfortunately none of them happened. It's not that all the students have high moral standards and follow the twenty-four-character mantra, but... there is no one.

Master Herman was nowhere to be seen.

The wizard Elliot who was blown out of the wizard tower last time could not see anyone either.

It was so quiet outside the mage tower that you could hear the chirping of birds. Gretel guessed that the experiment was probably going well, or that the person was doing another experiment and it would not explode for the time being.

Several other low-level mages, or mage apprentices - when Master Herman came yesterday, he said "disciples", there should be more than one - were nowhere to be seen.

Considering that yesterday's explosion occurred on the fourth floor, and Master Herman only allowed him to read the books on the first floor, Grete had reason to believe that there was a library dedicated to mages and wizard apprentices upstairs. These extraordinary people who have stepped into the magic door are all active on the second floor and above. They will never go downstairs unless necessary.

As for teaching... I can only say that today is not the day for classes to start?

The library on the first floor of the Mage Tower was empty except for Gretel.

The servant guarding the gate of the Master's Tower led him to the library, said, "You are not allowed to go upstairs," and turned away. Gretel wanted to ask him where the bathroom was, but before he could ask, he had disappeared without a trace...

Not even a pot of water.

Hey, in the past, the school library and library did not provide drinking water, so I got used to it.

Gretel put down his backpack. Go to the bookshelf. When he stepped into the library, he saw these bookshelves at first sight. The fine dark maroon wooden shelves stood tall and tall. There are also exquisite patterns carved on the capitals of the pillars and the top of the bookshelf. Just looking at this decoration makes people feel that the books on them are valuable.

... Just this bookshelf is enough for my salary for a year, right?

Gretel secretly speculated and quickly scanned the books on the shelf. There are not many books in the library, there are only two bookshelves in total. The books on the shelf were thick and large, as long as his elbow to his fingertips, and almost as thick as a punch.

In order to accommodate such a large book, the bookshelf is divided into only four levels from top to bottom. The shelves in each layer were clearly made of solid wood, with a thickness of more than five centimeters. The middle section of the shelf was still bent due to pressure.

Because the books are so big, the two bookshelves combined cannot contain more than a hundred books...

Gretel did a quick mental calculation. Not bad, not bad, compared to their seven-year joint undergraduate and master's degree textbooks... In terms of quantity alone, it's about the same, haha.

After all, the medical textbooks were called "Blue Love of Life and Death" by the later students. There were 53 books in total, plus political courses, public basic courses, and some optional elective courses, the textbooks alone were close to one hundred.

What's more, in addition to textbooks, medicine also has a lot of exercise books, reference literature, clinical diagnosis and treatment guides, and other materials, all of which need to be memorized.

We are professionals in learning. Not afraid.

Gretel encouraged himself secretly. So, the next step is to pick out the books you need to read!

Those book titles reported by Master Herman!

"Spell Basics"!

"Magic Pattern Structure"!

"First Interpretation of Elements"!

"Potions"!

And the most basic, magic words!

As for the rest of the books on the bookshelf, they may not be unimportant, but let’s start with the basics!

Grete tilted his head and looked at the words on the spine of the book. He found that he couldn't see the meaning, so he tilted his head to the left. I still couldn’t tell what the word was, or even whether it was written vertically or horizontally, or whether it was upside down to the left or right. I had no choice but to tilt my head to the right...

After going back and forth and doing several cervical spine exercises, Grete finally accepted a cruel reality. He recognized none of the words on the spine.

There is no other way, just read the text!

He stood on tiptoe and picked up a book from the shelf. As soon as I picked it up, my arms sank down, and I had to put in more force to hold it steady.

...so heavy!

Being a librarian these days is a physical job, right?

Gretel was speechless. He carefully brought the book to the table, put it down, straightened it, and studied the cover carefully. The dark blue leather book cover feels thick and soft, with silver squiggles coiled around it, twisting and turning like vines. Gretel recognized it for a moment, but couldn't figure it out and could only open the title page.

Don't recognize it.

Still don't recognize it.

Even after turning to the text, I still don’t know what this book is about, and I don’t even understand the words above. The only advantage is that this big book is a handwritten copy, and the characters are more than ten times larger than later printings. As you can imagine, the content of the entire book is at most one-tenth.

No, not even a tenth. The paper under my hand is several times thicker than in the previous life. It is thick and yellow, and clear traces of fibers can be seen. The paper is thicker, and the number of pages is naturally reduced. It is not surprising that the information recorded on it is also reduced.

Gretel heaved a sigh of relief, but after thinking about it, his heart tightened again. The papermaking technology of this era was still quite crude, and indeed it could only record common knowledge.

It is conceivable that in the future, if you want to copy spells or something, the starting price of paper, parchment, Warcraft skin, etc. will be several times more expensive than this paper. If the material is too poor, the magic power cannot be carried at all, and there is a high probability that it will be burned after writing...

In the future, he will have to come up with the materials to copy spells!

You have to buy your own paper, pen and ink!

I have to look at the prices later...well, I feel so poor...

Grete sighed, closed the cover of the book with tears in her eyes, took it back to the bookshelf, and went to carry the second book.

The second book.

Don't recognize it.

The third book.

Don't recognize it.

...book ten.

Don't recognize...

There was already a thin layer of sweat on the body, half from tiredness and half from anxiety. I came early, and I wasn't hungry yet, but my muscles and bones were exhausted, my body was exhausted, and my actions were chaotic... I have tasted all these tastes.

No wonder librarianship is a hidden profession. In this line of work, great achievements are indeed achieved!

He wiped his sweat and continued to move books. The title of the seventeenth book is finally written in common language, called "The Miracle Journey of the Archmage". Grete had an ominous premonition after reading the title of the book. He opened it and read two lines. It turned out to be a novel...

It's still a bad adventure novel. If you put it at the starting point, you can't even sign a contract.

...So I worked hard and worked up a sweat. How many of the things I was carrying must be novels?

Oh no……

Gretel beat his chest. The bad news is that he will have to fight with these novels for who knows how long. The good news is that he needs to read (memorize) less textbooks...

"You can't do this."

Suddenly a voice sounded from behind.

Gretel's hand holding the book froze.
