The airship moved forward. Li Xiang would look at the sky from time to time, but most of the time, he paid more attention to the scenery below.
They flew all the way from City 0001, passing by the prosperous super numbered cities, the vast plains, the endless snowy mountains, and the scorching desert. There was not much land that belonged to humans, and most of them were gathered in the numbered cities.
A few of them lived in small villages or in ancient towns with towering lighthouses.
He watched the scenery change. About half a day later, the airship finally approached the border of the Subcontinent.
The border cities were like giant steel fortresses, crouching on one side of the coastline. The architectural style and design were completely different from the numbered cities. They were more focused on combat and defense.
Outside the border cities on the coastline was the Dead Sea, which stretched as far as the eye could see.
Unlike the sea in his previous life, which was named for its high salt content, this was the real Dead Sea. It was said that countless Calamities that had survived the last war were sleeping at the bottom. Of course, none of them had ever broken out so far.
The Dead Sea was shrouded in fog all year round. Even when the airship was flying at a high altitude, its vision was somewhat obstructed.
On the other side of the Dead Sea was a part of the Great Wall of Disasters on the Subcontinent. The Great Wall of Disasters wrapped around the border of the entire continent. The upper part was connected to the European continent and the lower part was connected to the African continent.
There was no safe zone near the Great Wall of Disasters. Even the night watchers had to be on guard against attacks from mutants and Calamities. The area around the Great Wall of Disasters was considered a disaster area.
Wang Chongyue's airship fleet had perished in one of the disaster areas near the Dead Sea.
Seeing the airship fly away from the border city, Li Xiang had a bad premonition. When they arrived at the center of the Dead Sea, the airship descended to a low altitude and entered the dense fog. His guess was confirmed.
The Lighthouse Player University of the Subcontinent was not located in a border city. It was located on an island in the middle of the Dead Sea!
A giant lighthouse that looked exactly the same as the one Li Xiang had obtained stood at the center of the island.
It was so tall that it reached the end of the low-altitude area. It was emitting a warm yellow and white light. Wherever the light passed, the fog would disperse.
The island was so large that Li Xiang could not see the end of it at all.
Under the illumination of the lighthouse, the island was as bright as day. It was as if a protective shield had blocked all the fog outside the island.
In other parts of the island, there were more than a dozen lighthouses of different sizes, brightness, and shapes.
All of them were emitting light, and not a single one was dim.
Li Xiang's mechanical clairvoyance allowed him to clearly see the complicated internal structure of the lighthouse. It was more complicated than any of the lighthouses he had seen outside, but it operated with great power.
It could be said to be the work of the gods.
In addition to some floating super buildings in the sky, there were also metal tracks suspended inside. Miniature steam locomotives traveled on them, shuttling through various areas of the island.
"This is the territory of the Lighthouse Player University of the Subcontinent. The area of the island is comparable to that of a normal-level numbered city. The four major colleges occupy the four cardinal directions. The center is the academic area, where the faculty members live. Some important buildings are also located here."
Hestria came over and gave him a brief introduction. As for the details, when Li Xiang entered the University, there would naturally be someone who would be responsible for bringing him to understand.
Li Xiang was amazed. In his previous life, he was unable to study in a university due to various reasons. He was full of longing and expectation for the best institutions in the world. The Lighthouse Player University of the Subcontinent had fully satisfied his curiosity. He was very satisfied in all aspects.
Except for the fact that it was in the Dead Sea.
The airship followed the instructions of the lighthouse and slowly docked on the apron on top of a super building. Hestria helped him pack up all his luggage and pushed him out of the cabin door.
"Go ahead. I won't go." Hestria's mission was to send Li Xiang there safely. She had wasted too much time with him. Everyone knew how precious a Level-3 player's time was.
Li Xiang smiled gratefully. He picked up the black suitcase and his luggage and jumped onto the platform.
The salty sea breeze blew on his face. Under the light of the lighthouse, he felt warm all over. He was instantly at the peak of his condition and had grown slightly.
This should be the blessing effect of the [Lighthouse's Fire].
On the apron, the staff of the admissions office waved at him. The middle-aged woman sitting in the seat was wearing a black mage's cloak. The man and the woman beside her were not much older than him. The man was wearing something like a medieval knight's armor, but the style was more novel and fancy. There was a shield mark on his chest. The woman was wearing a black bodysuit, which perfectly outlined her hot body. There was a sword mark on her perky chest.
This set of tights was also different from the usual night clothes. If one looked closely, they would find many steam and mechanical elements. If one had to describe it, it was more like a next-generation technological tights. It was obvious that this set of tights could perfectly bring out the full potential of every part of the body and the small muscles.
"Yo, the quality of the newcomers this time is not bad." The woman's voice was very light. Her beautiful body trembled slightly as she spoke. Only then did Li Xiang notice that there was a black veil covering her face.
"So tall …" When Li Xiang got closer, he realized that the man was close to two meters tall, while the woman was at least 1.8 meters. In comparison, he was indeed short at 1.7 meters.
"Your Lighthouse Academy's new student, Li Xiang." The seated middle-aged woman said coldly. She pulled out a form and spread it on the table. Then, she showed a surprised expression. "Hmm? His admission form even says Chess Board Academy? "
"Eh, it's true." The woman took the admission form and looked at it carefully. "Are the juniors of the admissions office so perfunctory now? What's up with enrolling in Lighthouse Academy and Chess Board Academy at the same time? "
"It's not a mistake, it's the truth." The man said in a low voice. He pointed at the seal below the admission form. "The Vice Principal's seal. No one can copy it."
"Hiss …" The woman spat out a stone and looked at Li Xiang curiously. Then, she waved at him and gestured for him to come to her side. "Junior, do you know about this?"
Li Xiang shook his head. He did not know that he had enrolled in both Lighthouse Academy and Chess Board Academy at the same time. However, he could guess the reason. It was probably because of his outstanding mechanical talent.
"You can do it yourselves anyway. I don't care." The middle-aged woman stuffed the admission form back into the folder. "You can take him away now. The next student should be here soon."
"The junior is yours. The junior is mine." The man said in a low voice. He continued to look at the sky.
The woman giggled. She took Li Xiang's luggage and pulled him toward the stairs. Li Xiang's heavy luggage was as light as a toy in her hands. He could not help but click his tongue.
"Alright, stop looking. I'll show you around."
The two of them had just left when another airship landed.
Ise Shizuko jumped out of the airship, and her ninja attire made the armored man stunned.
