Chapter 024 Starship
(I want more tickets, and I want more tickets!)
Hore was secretly surprised. Unexpectedly, these young nobles were not all ignorant fools. Among the nearly a thousand small territories of the Herrantes Empire, they could remember that the Gusta territory, which was definitely within the last twenty, had put some effort into learning the heraldry.
"Hmph!" Berkner looked up at the sky with disdain, as if it was carved out of the same mold as Chapman in the magic store that day: "But another little baron is just a tiny baron, it's boring, let's go!"
The young nobles who followed Berkner surrounded Berkner and left. The short man looked at him in a mysterious way as he walked past Horay. The fat man still looked dazed. He couldn't remember how he lost Chapman's magic card.
Seeing Berkner and his gang leaving, Chapman leaned over and said with lingering fear: "Thank you, Gusta."
"My name is Huolei!" Huolei glared at him viciously. If it weren't for him, he wouldn't have done this.
"Oh! Horay!" Chapman was happy when he heard Horay say this. He thought Horay asked him to call his name directly, which was a very close method of calling him among the nobles. Of course, Berkner and others called him like this, but it was humiliating: "You can just call me Kori. Last time I saw you, I thought you were a civilian. It turned out that he was also a child of the nobles. Are you the heir to the title of the family?"
Huo Lei shook his head. He didn't plan to explain anything to this guy anymore, so he would rather stay away from him.
Kouli wanted to say something. The door at the entrance of the Sky Hall had been opened. A middle-aged man in a black robe stood at the door and said loudly to the nobles waiting to enter the venue: "The time has come. Please take your student cards and enter the Sky Hall in an orderly manner!"
Huolei and many people walked towards the entrance, because there were too many people and the team was moving slowly, while Kouli still followed like a follower.
"This is Star Aviation Academy. Without this magic card, you can't enter the Sky Hall with a magic barrier!" Kouli enthusiastically explained the function of the magic card to Huole, but Huole ignored him. The more you ignore him, the more he will stick to it.
After entering the entrance of the Sky Hall, there is a long and narrow corridor. After walking a few steps, the front of him suddenly became clear. The dome of the Sky Hall hangs in the towering sky like a real sky curtain, and even the dome is dotted with starlight. You will find that it is the light emitted by the Zheda gems embedded in the dome. Perhaps the name of the Sky Hall is also from this.
The sky hall did not give people a slight dark feeling, but Horay did not find the light source. The mottled starlight on the dome was not enough to provide such bright lighting. Perhaps some kind of lighting magic was working.
The interior of the Sky Hall is very large, and the empty hall is densely lined with dark blue seats, which is a bit like a large theater that performs operas. There are even closed private rooms on the second and third floors. Thick dark red curtains are pulled behind the viewing window. The only difference is that a podium that is half a football field-sized, located in the center of the Sky Hall, and the dark black ground even reflects the twinkling stars above.
"Go here, Horay!" Kori walked to Horay to lead the way. Now he looked very enthusiastic: "Are you from another place? Don't worry, if you don't know anything in Gaia, just ask me, I'm a living map of Gaia!"
Horay couldn't help but smile. If you are the living map of Gaia City, I am the Land Lord of Gaia City.
Just like watching an opera performance, the prospective students of Star Aviation Academy sat in an area in front of the central oval podium, and the young people were still talking, as if they were really attending a concert, until a person appeared on the front large podium, people calmed down and looked forward.
"Welcome!" The people on the podium began to speak, their voices were low, vicissitudes and majestic: "I am Netarot Fansino, the dean of Star Aviation Academy, welcome to the cradle of the Magic Captain, Star Aviation Academy."
Huo Lei was shocked and unconsciously lowered his head to avoid the deep gaze that had scandalized all the prospective students.
It was the old man who met in front of the Temple Cathedral that day and then helped Hore escape Gusta's poisonous hand!
He is the dean of Star Aviation Academy!?
Fansno on the stage continued: "Whether in the Ether World or in the Sea of Phosphorin, the work on the magic ship is very heavy and even very dangerous. The purpose of Starship Academy is to enable people who board the magic ship to be fully prepared. This is very important. Studying at Starship Academy can allow you to gain knowledge and increase your understanding of the magic ship. More importantly, everything taught by Starship Academy can greatly increase your chances of returning alive every time you sail!"
A slight laugh came from the audience, and everyone felt that the old man was a little alarmist. Most of the prospective students were nobles or wealthy businessmen with magic ships, and many of them had experience in driving magic ships. In fact, the real situation was not as terrifying as the old man said.
Controlling the magic rudder and seeing the direction is even easier than driving a carriage - although few people actually fly over the Etheric Realm, let alone the Typhoon Sea, I think that's all the same.
As if he did not hear the response from the audience, Fansno continued to say to himself: "Therefore, the college entrance examination is very important. We are not the main temple church. All believers who worship Goddess Alina can get the protection of the church. Of course, we are not the main temple Knights. We need talent to truly become a Templar. However, Star Aviation Academy is not an ordinary college that anyone can attend!"
It was not until this time that a tense atmosphere was shrouded in the heads of the prospective students in the audience. Everyone began to understand that this was not the admission ceremony of the freshman student at Star Aviation Academy, but the admission examination that had promotion and of course eliminated. I just don’t know how this exam will be conducted.
Fan Sino stopped talking. He slowly walked to the edge of the podium, raised his hand and waved it gently. A small crack appeared in the center of the dome of the Sky Hall. Then the two hemispheres began to open to both sides silently, and the sunlight quietly penetrated from the increasingly large gaps, because a huge shadow continued to block them, preventing them from illuminating every corner of the Sky Hall.
All the prospective students looked up in amazement, watching a magic ship slowly landing from the center of the dome opened by the Sky Hall.
The magic ship stopped when it was a few meters high from the podium. It seemed that a piece of hull had been broken off and landed on the podium gently.
"This is the Starship Magic Ship of Starship Academy. In short, its history is even longer than Starship Academy. But don't worry, although it is a bit old, it is still capable of etheric travel." Fan Sino stepped on the gangway and turned to the prospective students with doubts, nervous and excited expressions mixed on his faces, saying: "Come on, an interesting test is waiting for you."
Do you want to take the exam in the ether world?
For most prospective students who have never entered the Ether World, this is enough to make them make the above complex and simultaneously emerging expressions. After all, they are still children in their teens, and sailing on the Ether World is still very new to them.
Horey lined up the gangway, walking up the gangway, only the second time he stepped onto the magic ship and was about to fly to the ether world, but he felt a strange calm in his heart, at least not as excited as he thought.
The hull of Star Airlines is large, and correspondingly, the cabin is also large. After turning a few turns in the corridor of the cabin, the prospective students entered a conference room-like room. The room was very large. Except for a table placed in the middle, the remaining space was enough to accommodate the two or three hundred prospective students.
Fansno did not invite them to visit the Starship cab or somewhere as the students expected.
"Before you arrive at your destination, let's have a break here!" After Fan Sino said that, he disappeared behind the door of the conference room with two teachers in the college. Everyone was somewhat disappointed, even if it was better to meet the captain of Star Airlines.
However, this was a trip to the Etherworld after all, and soon, people gathered in front of the porthole on one side of the room.
In addition, some people still stood in the center of the hall, or simply sat on a row of seats opposite the porthole. They either had their higher status or were not the first time they were flying to the Ethereal World and talked to each other, and they couldn't help but show contempt for those prospective students who were rushing to the porthole and rushing to the porthole without caring about the image of aristocratic people.
Huo Lei did not go to the porthole. It was not that he was not interested in the scenery outside, but that the conversation between the few people around him attracted his attention.
"In the past, Star Aviation Academy's entrance examination was either a written questionnaire or a magic test. The most outrageous thing was just a test for candidates to compare with each other. But this is the first time I heard about the test in the Ether Realm." The person who spoke was a big-eyed boy, very tall, but with a baby face, blinking, he looked like a little girl.
Of course, he was not dressed as a man. The Herrantes Empire had female knights, countes, female bishops, and even the empress ascended the throne in history. Although there were not many, it was not uncommon for girls to take the entrance examination of Star Aviation Academy. For example, the one who took the talk of the big-eyed boy was a girl with flowing red hair.
"My brother graduated from Star Aviation Academy. His entrance exam was to compete with others. My brother received orthodox training for a warrior. Fortunately, that year was not a magic test, otherwise he would not have passed the exam!"
"Does the admission examination of Star Aviation College really have different forms and contents every year, and even the focus of the inspection?" Huo Lei couldn't help but join the discussion among these people.
"Yes!" said another boy who seemed to be younger than Horay last year: "I heard that one year, Star Aviation Academy only recruited warlock students who were born with spell casting ability!"
The boy's equally fiery red hair was curled on his head, like a burning flame. The boy was close to the red-haired girl, and the two looked more or less similar. At a glance, they knew they were members of the same family.
Huo Lei accidentally glanced at the ring on the boy's hand, and was not only slightly shocked.
That is a platinum emblem ring!
