Standard Island

Standard Island (スタンダード島,) is an island that appeared in the light novel 55 Minutes, acting as the main setting place. It is a floating, man-made mechanical island that is created by the peace pact of Germany, France, and Britain after the end of The Great War. The island has famous million-dollar resorts and is self-sufficient.

Access
To access the areas of the island, a special kind of coin is required which will serve as their ID on the island. Visitors usually receive copper coins while the silver coins are able to grant permission to access restricted zones not accessible to tourists. They emit radio-frequency identification that can open doors.

Gold coins are required for top secret zones. The ones who are in charge of these specific, forbidden areas are given permission to arrest or kill the intruders (those who didn't have the permission to enter).

Description
The island itself is the form of Jules Gabriel Verne's ability - "The Mysterious Island".

Due to it being Verne's ability, any ability-user who dies in that island will have their ability absorbed by Verne. H.G. Wells, who died on the island during her pursuit to retrieve the ability weapon, had her ability absorbed by Verne, which caused Standard Island to be trapped in a time loop.

Locations
The island was split into four main zones:
 * Residential Zone - the area where the administrative staff live
 * Test Zone - the area where they conduct various experiments as the island also served as a research facility for power generated sailing
 * Tourist Zone - the area filled with music halls, hotels, seaside resorts, and shopping arcades
 * Engine Dept Zone - the area which was equipped with all the facilities necessary to steer and sail the island
