Everyone listened attentively as Landon further explained his plan for the academy.
For the library system, only students who had their Academy school I.D"s, could get into the library.
For now, Landon had decided that the textbooks would never leave the academy library.
In this way, even if foreigners come to Baymard in future, they still wouldn"t be able to access these textbooks books.... Since they weren"t necessarily permitted on the Academy"s premises.
If the books don"t leave the library, then spies would definitely have a hard time getting their hands on them.
After the system"s reminder about not giving technology to those with evil intentions, Landon had decided to restrict access to these books.
In fact every new academy, be it police force, navy and so on, would be like that as well.. and wouldn"t allow visitors or spies within their premises... Only if they had permission to tour the academies under the supervision of tour guides.
For the public school, since Landon had planned to have international students study here in the future, he had decided to make 2 libraries within it.
The first library would allow both Baymard based students and the international students, to look at textbooks on english and math only.... as well as storybooks, history books, newspapers, and so on.
This first library would only be accessed by using one"s school I.D.
As for the second school library, this one would contain chemistry textbooks, physics, biology and so on.
And could only be accessed by Baymard based students, by using two I.D cards: The Baymard National I.D, as well as the School I.D.
Even though the international students would be taught these subjects in cla.s.s, Landon would still not allow them to have a chance at accessing, stealing or taking these textbooks away to their own empires.
Like he said, he would allow them to sit through the cla.s.ses, but it was their job to take notes, and to experiment within their empires.
Presently in this era, people sat in cla.s.srooms and learnt without textbooks, hence Landon didn"t think that it would be a problem.
And even if someone complained, so what?
If they really had a problem with his arrangement, then they should quickly go back to empire and sit there.
Or better still, they should make their own empire and rule it the way they dimmed fit.
Please!!! He wasn"t going to disobey the system and get his soul fried, just because of foreigners.
He wasn"t that kind.
And by the way, shouldn"t they be happy that he was willing to allow them to sit through the cla.s.ses?
Wasn"t that what was actually going on right now in Baymard?
In future, the textbooks would be available for all academies and schools.. but right now, only the teachers had their textbooks.
Hence if the citizens could learn without seeing the textbooks and only relying on the teachers, then so could they.
For the foreign students, they would be taught basic knowledge from elementary to high school knowledge... but University level knowledge was off the table.
The teachers would do their best to teach them about air, matter, reactions and so on.
And although they would be allowed to partic.i.p.ate in school based lab experiments, that didn"t bother Landon at all.
High school lab experiments were meant to show basic things, like measuring pH levels for bases, and so on.
Plus if one thinks about it, in high school, all the chemicals were given to the students... but if you asked them how to extract, produce or refine chlorine, mercury, and all the other chemicals from ores, stones, and other raw materials, they definitely wouldn"t know where to begin..... without the internet.
Not to talk of the fact that what they were studying, didn"t even cover university level knowledge.
Back on earth, the only reason why inventions were made faster, was because of books, the internet and other people"s detailed scientific experiments.
Without all of those, it would take more than 20 years to even see positive results.
Back on earth in ancient times, scientific discoveries took decades to do because they lacked all those... but in modern times, one could easily google and see how to do stuff just like that.
Hence Landon was sure that they wouldn"t be of any threat to Baymard while they were studying.

--Riverdale City--
.
The sun went down, and the stars began to glow amidst the darkness.
People filled the busy streets, as they walked towards different directions.
Two st.u.r.dy men on horses, rode through the streets and quickly checked into an Inn.
These two men, were Brody and t.i.tus.
Their lord, crown prince Eli, had sent them on this mission since July.
Today was October 3rd, and they had finally arrived Riverdale City which was just 2 and a half hours away from Baymard.
Their mission was simple: Find out if Prince Landon was still alive.
If he was dead, recruit his men and have them kill the citizens... if the land was barren, then they didn"t have the patience to feed peasants.
And if Prince Landon was alive, threaten the b.a.s.t.a.r.d to give the land to lord Eli, or he would face lord Eli"s wrath in the future.
During these last few months that they had spent on the road, Brody and t.i.tus became extremely unhappy.
Why were they the ones tasked with doing this sort of Job.
Everyone went on cool missions, but noooo...they were tasked with doing the most annoying one.
Who wanted to deal with a loser prince?
Instead of placing all their anger at Eli, they immediately directed it to Landon.
Wasn"t it because of him that they had found themselves here? And how dare he command the attention of their heroic lord?
An exiled prince was the same as a peasant, so they held no respect for Landon at all.
After settling down in their room, they quickly began making preparations for their mission.
"Brody, I have a feeling that although Prince Landon is for sure dead, Commander Lucius would still give us a hard time." t.i.tus said.
"Me too.. Instead of worrying about that garbage prince, I think that the main issue would be Commander Lucius.
What if he refuses to give up the land?.. After all, you and I know that he takes that b.a.s.t.a.r.d prince as his son." Brody said.
"He dares!!!... He is just a dog without an owner... now that that garbage prince is dead, what right does he have to deny our lord?
Tsk.... Does he think that his puny army of 300 could ever defeat lord Eli"s army?" t.i.tus sneered.
"Hehehe.. just thinking about how we will stump on that old dog, makes me pleased."
"Aren"t you just pleased because you would finally get your revenge on Commander Lucius?" t.i.tus asked playfully.
"Hehehe of course its for revenge.. during our first year in the academy, don"t you remember when the old fool wanted to suspend me simply because I cut a peasant"s head off?
The old fool was always too strict, and never bent the rules for anyone...now look at were he had landed himself.
Hehehe I can"t wait to see his reaction when he sees how powerful I"ve become.
Tomorrow is definitely going to be a great day."
