Volume 8: Floating Under the Sky Chapter 13: A Small Seminar on Assistant Professor Li Lin (Part 1)
The university is a comprehensive research site. Since they use virtual godheads to pay salaries, it means that they have already cracked the relevant technology of virtual godheads and reached a relatively mass production level. Moreover, they have already industrialized various precious resources and often exchange them with some local forces for some rare books or precious technologies.
But in contrast, their protection of knowledge and manpower is also obvious to all. Although the university's review conditions are extremely strict, it can even be said that if you don't have the corresponding connections or corresponding tasks, it is almost impossible to enter through normal channels. However, since you have entered, it means that this person's life safety is perfectly protected. The university has never given up any employees, and all welfare conditions are first-class. Fully consider various research and related measures, and insist on people-oriented.
And considering that the university actually deals with some very historical or weird reasons that cannot be traced, the university will also conduct a physical examination at a fixed time. This is especially true for outstanding employees.
However, due to the particularity of strength, this type of physical examination is often not informed to the employees undergoing the examination, but is only evaluated by relevant personnel who have had contact with them internally.
In fact, Li Lin had already passed the initial probation period as a teaching assistant and became a formal university teaching assistant. Moreover, due to his outstanding performance during his tenure, his ideological awareness was as hard as steel, his methods were ruthless and his style was sharp, and most importantly, he was a generation of task maniacs. Wherever he went, no grass would grow. The superiors had always paid close attention to this new employee.
Sure enough, the subsequent tasks did not disappoint the expectations of the superiors, and each one was bigger than the other, and there was no time that the superiors could be relieved. At the beginning, it could be suppressed by the ability of the teaching assistants or professors, but later it required two professors. The most recent call to the old gods even required a vice-dean-level figure to suppress the scene. It can be said that it was a particularly big fuss and a particularly powerful show. And with such a rare opportunity to judge physical qualities, several people who had communicated with Li Lin gathered together and looked at each other. The scene fell into silence for a while.
"...You don't want to say anything?"
At least say something, anything. This is a research meeting after all.
Looking at the silent incarnation of assistant professor Sallys, and the professors of Holy Light, Curse, the new Nightmare, Demonology, and Religious Studies who were sitting around the round table, the professor of Archaeology coughed, forcibly ignored the look of despair on their faces, and pointed to the red ribbon on his head.
The valuable red silk ribbon was branded with a line of large characters using fine gold and silver threads: "A small seminar on whether Assistant Professor Li Lin is too hardworking." The words on it looked so real that the faces of several professors who were inclined to the dark school changed at the time, and they wanted to run away. Later, the archaeology professor shook the salary slip, and these people sat back with an unpleasant look on their faces.
"...I think there is nothing wrong with Assistant Coach Li Lin. Excuse me for a moment. He may have given me some information."
Looking at the several dark professors who had a stubborn look on their faces and seemed not to talk when he was around, the Holy Light Professor coughed, stood up and walked out of the meeting room.
Although Assistant Instructor Sally left a cute little girl as a witness, the words "Main body is out, sub-body is on standby, please do not pat or feed" tied to the little girl's head showed that the little girl was probably not online at all.
In other words, the only ones who can really say something are probably those who are on the dark side.
Assistant Instructor Li Lin has terrible popularity. Apart from this aspect, no one knows him and there is no one to ask him questions.
Looking at the few names on the list, the professor of archaeology was also worried. But what else can you ask of a man who can't even show up for a staff dinner for the sake of a mission (purifying the Black Forest)?
"I think... Holy Light has gone a little too far."
After a long silence, the professor of the Curse Department, an elegant-looking old man with a long beard and a tricorn hat, said calmly:
"No matter from which angle you look at it, Assistant Instructor Li Lin is a rising star in our Dark Faction, but now the Holy Light Faction has overstepped its bounds and insisted on giving him all kinds of benefits. This behavior is equivalent to forcing the growth of seedlings. You have also seen that he has taken a lot of things that do not belong to him, and has gained a lot of confidence out of thin air, which is not good for his growth."
"It does seem like there is a tendency to become a little arrogant, but that's only natural for someone with an immortal body."
The professor of demonology shook his head and added casually:
"But what I'm worried about is not this, but that the Holy Light Department is a little too hasty in using him. You have also seen the problem that the magic power in his body has solidified due to the forced promotion. Although it can be compensated by the Saint's Long Sword, what if there is a problem with the soul's materialization or the induction of heaven and man? Take the ritual swords of previous Pale Expeditions?"
"Those things don't supplement the ability of the Celestial Sense. They can only be regarded as a substitute. But if we continue like this, sooner or later we will be regarded as martyrs like the petitioners. I think this kind of good intention is not desirable."
"To put it simply, from our perspective, although we are an evil faction, it is only an attitude after all, a pretense of opposition. Strictly speaking, we are a group of scholars. Compared to those messy battles, learning is our main business. It's just that the actions of the Holy Light Department pushed him out too early."
The last nightmare professor crossed his hands and rested them on his chin, and said thoughtfully:
"Forcing yourself to accept a mission that is not at your level ultimately leads to this result. Although both sides are satisfied with the result on the surface, I think it's best not to happen again. Such a long mission and confidence in your own abilities will sooner or later lead to unknown consequences. Being too hardworking is not a good thing."
“I can make a counter-argument on this point.”
The professor of archaeology frowned.
"He took measures when he knew there was danger. He was mentally prepared to learn a lesson. The Holy Light Department cannot be blamed."
"But that means you have given him enough benefits, or compensation, for him to do that, right?"
"That's the theory, but..."
"We don't think it's a good idea to treat a hard-working assistant in this way. If we really want to protect the growth of a young plant, we shouldn't let it experience the wind and rain too early. A precious plant should be used in its precious place, rather than being selected by nature. Accepting tasks within his ability is what is really good for him. That's what I think."
“…”
You guys? So you guys have been following this?
Looking at several dark professors who seemed to have had a private conversation, the professor of archaeology suddenly realized the problem with his judgment.
