Morphology
The noun compound is compositionally transparent: 'land' + 'agent' readily yields 'an agent who deals with land or property', so a B1 learner who knows both words can infer the professional role. Although the example specifies virtual land, that is a domain-specific extension of 'land' and does not obscure the basic, cross-linguistically common agent-of-X composition.
Etymology
Land agent in online worlds keeps the same idea: a virtual agent points to digital land on a map, lists parcels and helps people buy or sell them. That's why a virtual land agent now 'helps people buy and sell' digital plots in online worlds.
