The Last Gentleman

Chapter 36: Ofalostik College

Chapter 36 Ophrostick College

 Under Chamberson’s leadership,

The two walked through many alleys in the street area and came to a [Steel-Street] where there were mostly factory buildings and there were railroad tracks in the middle of the street.

 There are many railway stations here, which are mainly responsible for the transportation of various factory materials and finished products.

but,

 One of the stations is obviously different.

The platform door is outlined and decorated with a large number of clover-style arched lattice bars, and a small metal sculpture similar to a newborn's carcass stands on the top.

“This is the train platform directly to the college, making it convenient for teachers and students to travel between the college and the street area.”

soon,

 A train combining gold and wood drove into the platform, with only four carriages.

 After a ten-minute jaunt.

The towering facade of O'Falostik College comes into view.

On top of the towering and sharp walls is a black film flowing with the color of the galaxy, which is in the shape of a hemisphere and envelops the entire academy, making it impossible to peek into the interior.

Facing the college gate not far away, the train had no intention of stopping.

 At this time,

 The magical secrets engraved on the carriages shine brightly, resonating with the front door of the academy, like the relationship between the "key" and "door lock".

 When the front of the car hit the steel gate of the campus,

Buzz!

 With a wave of ripples,

 All trains have entered the campus.

 The scene outside the window immediately switched to the unique bright night scene in the college.

 The blurry and flowing river of stars spreads down like a veil, covering the main buildings of the college and giving it a sense of mystery.

In the towering Gothic spire buildings, dots of warm light seep out from the vertical windows. Combined with the cold colors of the night, the mysterious atmosphere is even more profound.

The campus also has undulating terrain and architectural features, with a very obvious sense of hierarchy.

Some buildings stand alone in the sky, with exquisite architectural appearance, like noble gentlemen guarding the college at night.

"Wow!"

  Not just Yi Chen,

Even the little grapes stood on their shoulders, with their eyeballs exposed, admiring the beautiful scenery.

 After a while,

Yichen and Little Putao’s vision was directed to the center of the college.

There stand two independent hills, almost in the form of a [column-like structure], connected by a trestle at the top.

 At the top of the two columnar hills, there is a teaching building with different styles respectively.

 One side is a single-story, church-like building with a large area.

 One side is a multi-story, closed, square building with almost no windows.

 At this time,

Professor Chamberson’s voice came and gave a brief introduction:

“The college will not provide tedious and intensive courses. There are only two courses you need to study, “Gentlemanship” and “Pathology”.

 The teaching location of these two courses is exactly the building on the top of the mountain you see.

 Swan Academy, which teaches "Gentlemanship" in a unified and open manner,

 The Wilstermann teaching building where "Pathology" is taught in groups and secretly,

 They are also called the "Twin Towers", serving as the "lungs" and "heart" of the college respectively. "

 “Are there only two classes a week?

By the way, are all the people studying here gentlemen with the same status? "

“That’s right, you only need to attend two classes a week, and the rest of the time will be used for self-improvement.

The new gentlemen studying in the college are all the lowest [people]... Individuals who can break through this boundary no longer need the protection and teaching provided by the school.

The college has only two requirements for you:

  1. With the free teaching resources provided by the school, you can reach the [human limit] within two years. If you reach it in advance, you can leave the school directly.

  2. Complete a "mission" at least once a month. Generally speaking, you need to go to Zion's [Gentlemen's Hall] to receive a task of corresponding difficulty. "

 When Chamberson mentioned this, Yi Chen also thought of the team formation issue proposed by [Jin].

Chamberson continued:

 “Since you have no foundation,

 Your spare time during the early stage of enrollment will be at my sole discretion... I will only let you go out to complete your gentlemanly tasks when I think you are truly qualified to go out. "

"good."

 …

 After a period of train browsing,

Yi Chen quickly discovered the important architectural distribution characteristics of the college.

The distribution of buildings in this Ophrostick College is divided according to the structure of the human body.

  【Twin Towers】located as the heart and lungs, the center of the school.

 At the northernmost side, the gloomy, thick and huge [Big Library] serves as the brain.

 The row of [school buildings] and [canteen] close to the school gate serve as the intestines and stomach.

 The "Fetal Heart Church" surrounding the middle of the school building is also the office building of teachers, the decision-making place of the college, and serves as the most important 'connecting structure' between campuses - the umbilical cord.

 Its appearance is a super giant Gothic church.

A black strip like an umbilical cord extends from the top of the church, reaching straight to the sky... It is this structure that maintains the "eternal night state" of the campus.

 The interior of the church is divided into three floors.

 Connected by a long ladder that gradually converges upward.

 The bottom floor is the offices of ordinary faculty and staff, such as cleaners, security guards, ordinary teachers, etc. basically live on this floor.

 The middle level corresponds to the single-person offices of associate professors and professors. Teachers who can be rated as professional titles must not only meet the corresponding [qualification], but also need to have made significant contributions to Zion or the college.

 Top level,

 There is only one room - [Fetal Heart Chamber], which is also the principal's office.

Even Professor Chamberson rarely has the opportunity to go there to meet with the principal. Unless it is some extremely important meetings, the principal will not show up.

 …

 【Fetal Heart Church-Middle Floor Side Corridor】

 A stone key made of white rock was spit out from the mouth of the owl.

ˆClick~Open the door

 One room is dominated by cool colors.

A spacious office covering an area of ​​about 150 square meters and with a ceiling height of five meters appears in front of you.

 A large number of plant pots are used for decoration, and there are even trees planted in the corners. The overall brightness of the wall lamps is dim, giving people the feeling of being in the woods at night.

 The owl flapped its wings and landed on a branch in the corner.

 “Have a seat…I’m going to have to take some time to work out a training schedule for you.”

"good."

Yichen sniffed the scent of plants in the air and felt the pulse of life in the house, as if he felt at home...even feeling hungry.

 I found a sofa and sat down casually.

 Gently stroking the young leaves of the potted plant next to me, it felt like touching the pastry of roasted chicken, but in the end I resisted.

 Glancing at Professor Chamberson who was immersed in his work, he estimated that there would be no unnecessary movement within an hour.

“Let’s move around a little bit, I’m afraid I won’t be able to bear it anymore and eat all the potted plants that the professor has carefully taken care of.”

After walking around the office for a while, he soon stopped in front of an ordinary bookcase.

The above book caught his attention - "History of the World"

Since Yi Chen traveled through time, he has not really understood the specific conditions of this world. Is it exactly the same structure as the original world, or does it have a completely different geographical distribution and structure.

 Take out "World History"

 Lean lightly on the bookcase and read quietly.

 Just when he opened the first page of the book,

 A foldable world map is unfolded at the same time,

When he saw the world shown on the map, Yi Chen's eyes widened instantly and his spirit became uplifted.

 “This is a whole new world system!”

In just a few seconds, my mind was completely immersed in the book, and everything around me was blocked.

 As the reading progresses,

The emblem imprinted on the back of the head also started to squirm, as if it were turning the pages of a book.
