"The dormitory conditions of the Strength Academy are the best. It is in the main building on the west side of the courtyard. It is at a suitable height and has plenty of sunlight. However, the disadvantage is that it is very far away from the classrooms and practice fields, and it even has to pass through the entire courtyard area and the main building.
Garden, I’m afraid I have to get up half an hour to forty minutes earlier to avoid being late.”
This time the discussion broke out with the largest number of people. Many children had many beautiful fantasies as soon as they heard the word "power". However, when they thought of getting up half an hour earlier than other students every day, some students who had difficulty getting up turned into bitter faces.
.
Obviously, this kind of introduction is very biased. Jim and Mrs. Xanadu are just reading the lines according to the script written by Schiller. The purpose is to make the number of people in the three colleges as balanced as possible, so that no one in a certain college will be patronized.
Condition.
Because there are no formal classes now, children can only choose based on first impressions and interests. Without guidance, it is easy for all the children to choose the same college. This will not only affect the normal teaching activities, but also some children may not be very suitable for this college.
You will definitely complain and lose interest.
After the blank paper was collected, Jim was surprised to find that it was exactly as Schiller said, the number of children in each college was similar, but there was also a certain tendency.
For example, local children in Gotham usually prefer polytechnics. Instead of being disgusted by words like "underground" and "closed", they feel a sense of security. Younger children in other cities have chosen theoretical colleges.
, they are very curious about things like mage towers and like to live in high places.
Older children don't care much about sleep, and prefer their dormitories to be more spacious so that they can have enough space to move around, so they all chose the Strength Academy.
Soon, the children were taken to different dormitories according to the results of their sorting.
The dormitories of the Polytechnic are located underground, and the overall structure presents a multi-connected honeycomb structure. Six public lounges are connected to form a hexagonal ring. The corridor connecting the lounges is flanked by dormitories. No matter where you come out, you can quickly
Arrive at the common room.
The decoration style is the usual retro style of Alchemy with a hint of steampunk. There are decorative brass pipes at the joints and edges of the walls. The fireplace is an abandoned alchemy device transformed, filled with gear pipes and bolts. The chairs and tables are all
It is made of natural-colored metallic copper, and the overall style is brown, but the carpet and curtains are dark red, with patterns of pharmaceutical racks, test tubes and bubbles painted on them.
Just like what was introduced during the separation, this place is not humid at all, but dry and warm. You can hear the faint noise of the engine working and the gurgling sound of cooking medicine, and there is a smell floating in the air.
The fragrance of herbal medicine.
The ring-shaped mage tower area where the School of Magic Theory is located floats in the sky. Six mage towers form a circle from low to high, and are connected with floating steps in the middle. Although it looks a bit scary, there are actually protective air walls around it.
It won't fall.
The children kept making all kinds of screams, lying on the wall of air and looking down, and then walked back dizzily. There were dormitories at the top of the six mage towers.
The decoration style is mainly modern white, with light white patterned marble floors throughout. The huge floor-to-ceiling windows in the public room have almost no dead ends. Rows and rows of black built-in bookshelves are filled with books. Each public rest room
There is a modernist sculpture in the center of the hall.
The interior of the bedroom pays great attention to lighting shaping. The interior of the modern ceiling exudes a faint warm glow. The bedding is made of soft textiles with simple patterns. On the shelves on the wall, there are dark ceramic vases scattered at different heights with some strange and weird things in them.
of magic plants.
The dormitory of Strength Academy is indeed the most luxurious. It is decorated in a Gothic style that is common in Gotham Manor. The dark brown floor reflects a faint luster, and the roses with gorgeous patterns spread all the way in. Candlesticks and carvings
There are as many bookshelves as there are large beds covered with curtains, and the bedding is mostly made of shiny silk.
Even the children who come here are young ladies and young masters from wealthy families, they have almost never lived in such a unique environment, let alone having so many friends living here with them.
Soon, they became excited, sitting on the sofa in the common room, on the floor, and even on the windowsill, discussing everything here loudly, even forgetting to pack their luggage.
Victor, who had taken care of elementary and middle school students before, had already anticipated this scenario and asked professors to go to the lounges of various colleges to remind the children to pack their things and change clothes, and then go to the dinner party.
The uniforms of the School of Magic are the kind of robes common in church schools in most states in the United States. They are similar to those of British boarding schools, but they are slightly different from the uniforms of Hogwarts.
Most Americans are more pragmatic and basically simplify and simplify things that came from Europe, so this robe is simply a black top and bottom plus a long coat. The long coat is not mandatory, except for the longer top.
It covers only the knees and is not much different from modern school uniforms.
The purpose of school uniforms is actually to eliminate the differences between students. This can effectively eliminate comparisons and appearance anxiety. Everyone is dressed like a black penguin, so there is nothing to compare with.
Except for the local children in Gotham, most children know this kind of school uniform. Even some children in private schools have never worn it, but they have seen it occasionally. They quickly changed their clothes and then laughed at each other for being bloated.
image of.
It took a little effort for the children of Gotham to figure out how to wear these clothes, but they were the least adaptable because compared with their daily simple clothes, it was indeed a bit too cumbersome and bloated.
After coming to the auditorium again, they saw the splendor of magic for the first time. The place was rearranged into an extremely dreamy scene, with gorgeous long tables and chairs floating in the air, and translucent elves.
They poured wine into cups, danced with flowers and donuts holding hands, and candies lined up to pop into their mouths.
As soon as the children stretched out their hands to the stool, they found that they were already sitting on it, and they were sitting very steadily without shaking, except that their feet were at least two meters above the ground.
A row of long tables at the front of the auditorium were also floating in the air, but the people sitting on them were professors and the like. Jim knocked on the table lightly, and the place immediately became quiet.
"Okay, kids, what were we talking about before? I'm going to introduce you to the deans of each college. They will lead you through all your study time. You'd better respect them enough."
The children below immediately held their breath and concentrated. At their age, they have already understood the true meaning of some social classes. They know that if they want to survive in a certain group, they must please the leader as much as possible.
"First of all, Professor Stephen Strange, he comes from another universe that is almost the same as ours, but in that universe he is called the 'Supreme Mage', and he rules the entire earth's mages and dozens of magic temples around the world.
He is also the supreme leader of the Magical Holy Land Kama Taj, and he will be the dean of the Power Academy."
After hearing this series of titles, there were gasps from below. Strange, wearing the mage robe of a local mage, stood up, nodded reservedly, and raised his glass in greeting.
"This is Zatanna Zatara, the dean of the Academy of Crafts. She was born in a traditional magic family and has the noblest blood flowing through her body. Irony magic is currently the most powerful magic power in the magic world, and she is also proficient in it.
A variety of magic crafts, including alchemy, alchemy, illusion, spiritual magic, etc., he can also be called a master of miscellaneous magic."
Zatanna stood up and nodded to all the students, but her face was a little dissatisfied and she kept glancing at Constantine with her eyes, but Constantine could only show a wry smile.
In fact, Constantine should have been the dean originally, because he is a master of magic miscellany, or in other words, he only knows miscellany, and he is extremely proficient in all methods except for the serious method of borrowing power from demons and angels.
But Constantine’s own family knows his own affairs, and his leadership skills are as bad as shit. After all, you can’t expect a person who sacrifices his teammates all the time to lead the team well, so Constantine tried every means to convince Zatanna the night before yesterday.
took over the dean's job.
"Finally, I would like to solemnly introduce to you - Professor Schiller Rodriguez. In addition to being a professor at the Academy of Magic, he is also a professor at the Department of Psychology at Gotham University. Maybe some of you have heard of his name.
Yes, he is the famous psychologist Rodriguez, and he will be the dean of the School of Magic Theory."
A small noise suddenly broke out below, and some students from better-off families began to give others the reputation of Schiller.
Just after the students' interest was aroused, the introduction came to an abrupt end. Schiller stood up and toasted, then sat down. Jim announced that dinner was ready, leaving only the confused students of the School of Magic Theory looking at each other.
However, soon, the students were attracted by the rich food in front of them.
Today's main course is crispy Neapolitan pizza, meats include grilled chicken with herbs, steak with mashed potatoes and beans, baked prawns in sweet cream sauce, vegetables with traditional grilled vegetables, creamed spinach dumplings and tomato braised chicken nuggets, and soup with pumpkin soup.
and sweet pea soup, and of course the common American fried chicken nuggets and French fries. Dessert is donuts and non-alcoholic tiramisu cake.
It is not that there are no children from rich families among the students, but when all the dishes are floating in the air, no matter how common they are or even unpalatable, they will be particularly appetizing.
In the end, everyone was full, and even many children who had not eaten breakfast almost vomited themselves. However, on the way back to the dormitory, some children from the School of Theory couldn't help but complain.
"The deans of other colleges have so many titles, which sounds awesome. Why is the dean of our college..."
At this time, a Gotham local kid rushed up to him and covered his mouth. At the same time, he looked around in horror and said, "Oh my God! You should stop saying a few words, in case the professor hears it."
, we can’t even eat and walk around!”
"But what I said is obviously..."
"Who heard something?" A voice came from inside the common room. The local Gotham kid immediately let go of his hand, clasped his hands on his chest, showed a smile to Schiller and said, "No, it's nothing.
Professor Schiller, we are joking."
At the same time, he kept nudging the out-of-town kid behind him with his elbow to signal him to shut up. Although the kid was confused, he looked at his face and didn't say anything else.
"I know you are curious about me. I don't look like a person who can do magic. However, magic theory is more theoretical. When you realize the essence of magic, you will know how lucky you are to be assigned to this academy.
Already."
Schiller always has extra patience with children. He does not explain his identity too much, but leaves space for them to explore. However, this space is actually not big, because soon the local children in Gotham will know
Ask others about who Schiller is.
"I'm here to confirm if you have any inconveniences in your life. Do you have any?"
"It's nothing, Professor, everything is very good here, it's very good."
"Okay, my office is on the third floor of the tallest mage tower. If you have any questions, just go to me there, okay?"
The children stared at him with big eyes and nodded in unison. Schiller turned and left. When he returned to the office, there was another letter on the table.
He walked to his desk and saw that the signature on the envelope was Batman. Obviously, this letter came from Batman in the main universe, but this was already his fourth long letter this week.
Schiller looked at the more than twenty letters from Batman in the main universe placed on the envelope rack and sighed softly.
My wife has been too busy with work recently (no time to die)
