Chapter 66: Miskatonic University
Arkham’s college area is not large, and the actual area is not even as large as the sparsely populated rich area, but there are too many professionals and scientific talents in all aspects gathered here.
70% of the area of the college area is occupied by Miskatonic University, and the remaining 30% of the area is also related to the supporting facilities of the university.
For example, the school professors, the residences of doctors, and the clubs formed by these intellectuals, including the Miskatonic Senior Sports Club, the Stargazing Club, etc., and the most famous one is the Miskatonic Automobile Club.
This club has mastered many technologies for improving cars, and the shadow of this club can be seen in various racing competitions throughout the empire, and it has achieved good rankings in many times.
Ross drove his sports car down Garrison Street from the north side all the way to the south, turning at West College Street, all the way west.
Then stopped in front of the main entrance on the south side of Miskatonic University.
Strictly speaking, Miskatonic University does not have a clear concept of gates, because the university occupies three blocks.
Beyond the east, west, north and south walls of the entire university, there are four main roads that run through the entire southern city of Arkham.
This also makes the entire Miskatonic University not just a university, but also an important landmark in Arkham.
There is a saying here that as long as you walk down the avenue, even if you close your eyes, you can find Miskatonic University.
The main roads of the four cities are bordered on all sides, and these four roads continue to extend outward, as if the other streets of Arkham were prepared for people to come to Miskatonic University.
The car came to the gate of the school and was stopped by the guard.
Sitting in the car, Ross took off his sunglasses and asked with a smile, “Uncle Tom, how long has I been gone before you don’t recognize me?”
The doorman, Tom, is a chubby and strong man. He is forty-two years old this year. He is also a military veteran.
Tom’s face was filled with joy and surprise when he saw Ross: “Oh! My God! Look! Look! Who is this!”
Tom’s loud voice immediately attracted the attention of the students around him.
Everyone turned their heads to look, and immediately saw Loss’ smiling face.
“Our great mayor, it’s my honor to meet you.” Tom said with a smile.
Ross smiled: “Okay, Uncle Tom, don’t make fun of me, is Dr. Armitage there?”
Tom nodded. “Yes, Dr. Armitage has no classes today and tomorrow.”
“Okay, thank you, Uncle Tom.”
Naturally, Tom didn’t stop him, and turned around to let him go. When Ross was about to start the car, Tom suddenly said in a serious tone, “Mayor Arkham, thank you.”
“The widow of my comrade-in-arms lives in a slum street in the central area. Thank you for improving the environment there and for fighting the cults and gangs there.”
With that, he bowed deeply to Ross.
The camaraderie of comrades-in-arms, especially the comrades who have been on the battlefield together, is similar to that of brothers.
But his ability is limited, and he really can’t help the family too much.
And the rectification of Loss this time has allowed the family to live a good life. He has passed this time twice. The smiles on the faces of the family are much brighter than before, and the haze that has not disappeared for a long time has completely disappeared. .
Ross smiled deeply: “Uncle Tom, this is the responsibility of a qualified mayor.”
After speaking, he waved at him and drove into the campus.
Not everyone can drive in at Miskatonic University. It can be said that it is quite a privilege to let Ross drive in.
Entering from the main entrance on the south side, the first thing you see is a park with green vegetation. At this time, in this park, you can see young talents walking in twos and threes, chatting and laughing with each other, full of sincere and innocent smiles.
In the middle of the park, there is an eight-story Gothic stone tower. This stone tower is the tallest building in the entire Arkham town. It was built to commemorate those who died in order to build the Arkham town.
There are 2,200 names on it, the first of which is Lawrence Arkham, the ancestor of Loss.
This is not only a symbol of Miskatonic University, but one of the honors of the entire Arkham family.
Today’s Miskatonic University is built around this monument.
Enter from the gate, follow the street all the way to the east, pass two teaching buildings and two dormitory buildings, and come to a location at the southeast corner of the entire university.
There is a quaint building, a three-story Gothic building made of granite, and here is the famous Miskatonic University library.
If Miskatonic University is the symbol of the entire Arkham city, then this library is the symbol of the university, and it is hailed as a treasure that the entire academic world cannot measure by value.
There are more than 400,000 books stored in this classical library, a large number of which are hidden orphans that have disappeared in history, which hide those histories that have disappeared in the long river of time.
Stopping the car, Ross took off his sunglasses and got out of the car and walked in.
During this process, many students set their sights on him, but soon they were placed on his car.
For boys, apart from beauties, the most fatal attraction to them is luxury cars.
A young man with glasses saw the car and couldn’t walk, and his face was full of shock and he muttered: “My God! Who is this guy, this is the latest model of the Foles company using the clay modeling method. The flagship model of the car is worth 10,000 Rosa coins, and I heard that only 60 units of this car were produced in the entire empire, and it is a real limited edition!”
The other tall blond young man beside him had a bad face, because he just bought a sports car yesterday, and he just drove over to show it off today~www.readwn.com~, but he was completely beaten by this car.
“Who is this guy?” the blond young man asked with some displeasure.
At this time, a passing girl said, “You don’t even know the mayor?”
“The mayor? Is he the Los Arkham?” The blond young man’s eyes were a little surprised, and then the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned. He didn’t expect him to reach his target so quickly.
On the other side, Ross has come to the inside of the library.
The hall on the first floor of the library is made of marble. Although this structure is cold and windy, the large windows allow the library to have very good lighting, and the high arched windows allow the sunlight to enter to the greatest extent.
“I really miss it.” Standing here, Los’s previous memories came flooding back.
He once loved to bathe in the sun and read books in that corner, and he also confessed to the girl he liked here, and then was ruthlessly rejected.
“Is this the taste of youth?” Ross said recallingly.
