Chapter 304 Pre-admission Counseling
Chapter 304 Pre-admission Counseling
Three days later, Xue, with all the necessary paperwork completed, boarded a flight with her elder sister, flying across the ocean to Chicago International Airport in the United States.
This is the most prosperous and prestigious city in Illinois and the most important transportation hub in the north-central United States, but it is still some distance away from Cassell College.
If her memories of the novel "Dragon Clan" were correct, she would probably follow her elder sister on the CC1000 express train to complete the last leg of the journey.
"The special train to the academy won't arrive until tonight. Let me take you around the airport first, Xiaoxue."
So, the two sisters who had not eaten breakfast came to a Subway sandwich shop in the airport, ordered a beef meatball sandwich each and started to eat it.
"By the way, sister, have you ever seen a real dragon?"
Hearing this, Nono put down the half-eaten sandwich in his hand.
"I guess I have seen one, but it was just a baby dragon. Xiaoxue, you'll probably see one tonight too. It's a requirement for admission."
Sure enough, newborns come and go, but dragon cubs remain forever.
"Dragon cub..."
If I remember correctly, it was a red dragon cub. I suddenly felt a little sorry for it being soaked in formaldehyde.
……
Before she knew it, it was already late at night. Xue sat on a bench at the airport subway station, squinting her eyes, quietly waiting for the arrival of the special train.
As midnight approached, a bright beam of flashlight appeared in a corner of the rest area.
It was a guy in work clothes, with a flashlight under his arm, a mobile ticket machine in one hand and a small golden bell in the other, walking towards him with a jingling sound.
"Passengers on CC1000 Express, please prepare to enter the station and take your tickets and luggage. Freshmen, please show your admission letters." The ticket inspector's voice echoed in the hall.
"Xiaoxue, wake up and get ready to go."
Seeing the ticket inspector coming, Nuonuo called Xue over and helped Xue hold the suitcase with his left hand.
"okay."
After stretching hard, Xue followed Nuonuo towards the ticket inspector.
"Hey, isn't this Nuonuo? Aren't you an interviewer in Huaxia? Why are you back early?"
It seems that the ticket inspector and my sister are quite familiar with each other.
"Take my sister to school." Nuonuo pointed to the snow beside him.
"Is this your sister?"
Hearing this, the ticket inspector looked Xue up and down. Apart from anything else, this child was really beautiful.
"Hello, my name is Chen Moxue."
Snow greeted with a smile.
"Hello."
After a brief greeting, the ticket inspector took over the double tickets and Xue's admission letter.
"Hmm, tentatively A-rank? Four Symbols?! Oh my god, Nono, your sister's word spirit is that Four Symbols?!"
The ticket inspector was even more shocked. He actually got to see the rare and powerful Word Spirit holder that only appears once every century in his lifetime?!
"Hehe, surprised, right~"
Nuonuo crossed her arms and looked like she was about to praise my sister.
Looking at her elder sister like this, Xue gave a helpless smile.
But to be honest, this Nuonuo seems to have become different from the one in the novel of her previous life because of this extra sister.
After swiping the subway magnetic card, the green light on the ticket machine suddenly lit up. With a beep, the dimly lit platform rest area and even the entire Chicago International Airport suddenly lit up, including the crisscrossing runways outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The huge display screen above the subway ticket gate also lit up, indicating that the CC1000 subway train was about to arrive at the station.
A moment later, the ground began to shake, and there really was a subway train roaring towards Chicago Airport.
A strong wind suddenly swept across the platform, and a dazzling beam of light illuminated the dark fog in the tunnel. The empty subway car entered the station at high speed and stopped abruptly in front of Xue and Nuonuo.
The black streamlined body is decorated with dazzling silver-white vine patterns, like a work of art.
"Please, ladies."
The ticket inspector gestured with his hand, and Xue and Nuonuo boarded this special train.
……
After boarding the train, Xue looked around with a look of curiosity.
I have to say that the decoration of this carriage is really good, with an elegant European style. The walls are decorated with Victorian-style patterned wallpaper, the portholes are wrapped in solid wood, and the dark green leather sofa is embroidered with gold thread. The entire space environment exudes refinement and elegance.
After changing into the Kassel Academy uniform consisting of a dark green suit jacket, a white shirt, a pure black pleated skirt, and a dark rose red bow tie, Xue and Nuonuo sat on the leather sofa.
Sitting opposite them was, of course, the old kid Professor Guderian.
Xue was an outstanding student he had found unexpectedly. It would be troublesome if she was snatched away by another professor.
"During the trip, I will give you some final guidance before school starts. Coffee or hot chocolate?"
At this moment, Guderian was much more serious than when they met before.
"Any lemonade?"
"Of course, what about you, Nono?"
Nuonuo thought about it.
"I'm the same as Xiaoxue."
"clear."
After a while, two glasses of lemonade were brought up. Xue took a sip, as if to relieve her tension.
"Since you, Mo Xue, already know a lot about Kassel Academy, I'll make it short."
Professor Guderian took out a document written in Latin as he spoke.
In line with the good habit of reading agreement documents carefully, Xue quickly glanced through the confidentiality agreement and found it quite reasonable.
"Hmm? Xiaoxue, do you understand?"
Nono on the side was curious, she didn't remember that her sister could speak Latin.
“I taught myself when I had nothing to do.”
Conceptual-level mastery of all languages is so outrageous. Of course, Dragon Script is no problem either.
Professor Guderian carefully put away the documents, then shook out the canvas of the giant oil painting behind him.
It was a doomsday scene, the sky was a mixture of iron blue and the color of fire. A giant tree that reached from sky to earth stood in the wasteland, its dead branches extending in all directions. It was the branches of this tree that supported the cracked sky.
The wasteland was littered with dead bones, and a giant black beast was rising from the depths of the pile of bones, its wings full of skulls, spitting out black flames towards the sky.
If someone sees this kind of thing for the first time, the things depicted in the oil painting will definitely bring a strong visual impact and spiritual shock.
But unfortunately, Xue is not an ordinary person. When she saw Long, she felt that this thing was quite cute, and this cuteness was even for a hamster rather than a cat.
“这就是龙吗?”
"That's right, Dragon."
"If I'm not mistaken, isn't this the World Tree and the black dragon Nidhoggr that devours it? Norse mythology?"
"It seems our classmate Mo Xue has some insights into Norse mythology."
Guderian nodded with satisfaction.
"It's a common theme in Japanese anime..."
The second-year mentality that is deeply rooted in the blood of Japanese people is extremely useful for concealing the truth.
