Chapter 304 Steam Train (4000)

On February 10, 874, Dawn Calendar, at 10 a.m., at 10 a.m., at the Malton City Steam Train Station.

Allen, Renard, and Austin were standing quietly on the platform waiting for the arrival of the steam train.

It has been two days since Allen and his friends left Gria City. During these two days, they drove their cars all the way to the south, but even their vehicles were modified faster than ordinary vehicles, and the driver was energetic as extraordinary people and traveled all night long. But two days later, they had just arrived at the steam train station in Malton City.

Because of the original incidents, Griya City has left a lot of messes. Although Griya City has now gotten on track with the efforts of all administrative units of Griya City, it still has historical problems.

Not to mention that the rail cars inside Gria City have not started to operate again, the railways around Gria City have not been completely repaired. This is why the Empire chose to use magic airships instead of steam trains to transport supplies.

After all, although magic airships are faster than the Imperial steam trains, the steam trains consume less and transport more. If it weren't for some exact reason, the Imperial would not have made such a decision.

After all, the senior officials of the empire also had a general understanding of the situation in Gria City at that time. Although the problem was big, it was more about restoring production and rebuilding people's livelihood. There were material requirements, but time was not urgent.

But to be honest, the steam train has been a historical problem a long time ago, and it has not been repaired yet, but Allen did not expect it.

But after Allen learned about the inside story, he never thought that anyone had neglected his duties again.

When disaster relief supplies and reconstruction supplies were transported through magic airships and were no longer in short supply, it was obviously a more reasonable arrangement to invest limited productivity in more urgent tasks.

After all, at that time, if we did not speed up the reconstruction and maintenance, we would not know how many people would die when the cold wave came.

In comparison, the maintenance of steam train tracks is no longer important. After all, the materials are complete and the steam train cannot be used during the cold wave. These two reasons are enough to make the ruling group decide to repair the steam train later.

It is precisely because of this that Allen and the others chose to drive to Malton City and then take the steam train to the southern border of the Empire.

It is early February, and the climate of the empire has not completely separated from the afterglow of the cold winter, so the weather is still a bit cold, and this cold is particularly profound in the northern region.

However, fortunately, in the northern part of the empire, the city of Moldon, which is close to the central part of the empire, it has been freed from the terrifying cold wave and has the ability to communicate with the outside world again.

On February 6, 874, the cold wave declined from Malton City. The next day, the external transportation in Malton City returned to normal and steam trains started again.

In a sense, this is a rare good sign, otherwise, Allen and the others would probably have to drive south all the way.

Not to mention it for a long time, it is easy to be calculated.

Austin decided to go south to regain everything that originally belonged to him. Although it was driven by many factors, Dalton's serious injury gave him a good opportunity. Caesar's support gave him the capital to fight with the other party, and the joining of Allen and Renard gave him the confidence to be afraid of beheading.

These reasons are important factors in Austin's decision to move south.

However, it is undeniable that Dalton's serious injury is an extremely critical point.

If there was no such news and no such a god-given opportunity, even if Austin had two reasons for the next, he would mostly choose to continue to accumulate strength and wait for a suitable opportunity.

After all, no matter what, Dalton has seized power for eight years.

Although he was unable to hold the Gun Flame Family in his hands due to the many backhand constraints left by Austin's father, it was obvious that as time passed, Dalton's power was constantly increasing, while Austin's power was constantly weakening.

People always look forward, there are not many good people who can always remember Austin's father, and even fewer people can always remain loyal. Most of them still believe that people die like a lamp extinguished.

This means that there are still people who are dissatisfied with Dalton's rule, so Austin's seizure of power still has the possibility of success.

If the older generation dies in a few years, if Austin wants to go south then, he will probably have to give the person a thousand miles away.

Therefore, Austin regards this opportunity as extremely important, and even cherishes it as life.

If he missed this opportunity, let alone whether he could have the chance to escape this time, he wouldn't know if there was such a good opportunity in the future.

It is precisely because of this that Austin has put all the treasures on this time, trying to be foolproof.

So, it is understandable that Austin chooses a steam train to save time.

Of course, some people may be puzzled by the gap between their conversation time and the departure time. If time is really that important, why not leave directly with February 6th and wait until the 8th to set off again.

But you should know that the Dwarf Mission and the Imperial Capital Mission did not leave Griya City on February 7th.

Although Allen was willing to go south and hoped to get enough points with this incident, he still regarded the safety of Gria City and the safety of his relatives and friends in Gria City as the most important thing.

If he left too early and gave others an opportunity to take advantage of it, then even if he went south this time to achieve his goal perfectly, he would regret it for life.

That's why Alan and the others chose to set off on February 8th.

Austin naturally agreed with Allen's idea. After all, there are many places to rely on Allen in the next action, and he still needed time to prepare funds, draw up personnel, prepare various magic tools and alchemy props, as well as magic crystals for recharge and cultivation.

Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo w

The sharp and sharp whistle of steam suddenly resounded, spreading in all directions like a sharp arrow, piercing into the eardrums of everyone present.

The clouds in the sky seemed to have become erratic, as if they were frightened.

Wow!

It seemed like silver light flashing, or it seemed like a cold light broke through the sky. The space around seemed to be bright for a moment at this moment, but in the blink of an eye it returned to silence, as if everything was an illusion.

Austin, Bor and others around him found nothing unusual, only Reinard seemed to have discovered something.

However, he just knew it, but he didn't say it out.

Alan, who had already opened his eyes, turned his head slightly, as if he was looking in the direction the train was coming.

However, only he could see a message on the retina.

[Long-term practice allows you to further master the secrets of sword techniques, Master-level long sword 2]

With a thought, the news automatically disappeared, and Allen couldn't help but sigh.

What I said, although my skills have improved is a happy thing, after all, it is also a proof of my own efforts.

But to be honest, after working hard for so long and my skills progress is so slow, it really makes people feel a little confused about what to say.

This means that Allen didn't tell others about his ideas, otherwise he wouldn't know what he would be beaten.

You know, all the skills in this world are getting more and more difficult.

Not to mention master-level skills, just silver-level expert-level skills, it also takes years of accumulation to make your skills reach the peak.

The difficulty of this is greater than Alan imagined.

Otherwise, before the magic tide resurfaced, the Silver Level was the era when the world version was upper limit, and the skills of the Silver Level controlling master level would not be regarded as an extraordinary achievement and included in the history books.

You should know that most of the people who entered the silver level in that era can be called the pride of heaven. If they were placed in the extraordinary prosperous era in ancient times, at least one-third would be able to enter gold.

But even such a genius does not have much skill in achieving the golden level with his silver body.

The difficulty can be imagined.

It is already very good that Allen can still see the results through his ascetic practice, and it can be regarded as a saying that he is extraordinary.

This is all too slow. I guess I really want to make those silver strong men who are still trapped in front of the master-level skills go crazy.

The harsh whistle sounded closer and closer, and the strong wind blew over the face of the huge steel beast torn apart, blowing the hair of Allen and others flying.

Allen calmed down, glanced around, and then quietly waited for the train to pull aside.

The process of getting on the train was not at all twists and turns. The iron box used by Allen to place a long knife was already checked when he entered the station. The devices disguised by exquisite mechanisms and spells were naturally not something that the security inspector at a train station could check out.

In fact, if Allen and the others were normal and went south without any concealment, there would naturally be no need to do these fancy disguises.

After all, the Executive Commissioner's possession of a weapon that is commonly used by the entire empire is enough to get Allen to get on the car with his knife, and there is no hidden danger.

But the problem is, they are not.

From the beginning of going south, they carried out various disguises.

It looks exactly the same as an ordinary vehicle, but it is faster and has better defense. It doesn't seem to be special, but it is actually ready-made clothes made according to the standards of combat uniforms; there are also people who have not stood together, like strangers who don't know each other...

All of this is their efforts to move south.

They naturally know that these things cannot be hidden for a long time, but as long as they can delay time at all, this is useful.

After all, the later the enemy gets the news, the less time the opponent has to prepare, and the greater their success rate.

Moreover, on the other hand, concealing one's identity as much as possible is also to improve the safety of oneself and others as much as possible.

If possible, Allen and the others even hoped to reach the southern part of the empire, the location of the Austin family, safely without any twists and turns, and then complete the power seizure with lightning speed.

But this is just thinking about it.

Even if Austin's second uncle was seriously injured and his sensitivity to crisis was much lower than before, his allies would not be so confused.

You know, although Caesar Charles stipulates the gameplay, there are not no vague existences that can be turned into loopholes.

Those guys who have been passed down for a long time are bold people. Not to mention vague and vague rules, even explicitly prohibited taboos, they will not lack courage if necessary.

So, even if the weather is right and the harmony of others is on our own, Alan and the others have never relaxed their guard against the enemy.

However, although everyone dressed up very well, like ordinary people, Bor's huge body shape and unconcealed toughness still shocked others.

Therefore, when Allen and the other four got on the bus, the gap between the people in front and behind them was much larger than that of the people in front.

Boer walked in front, lowered his head slightly with some worries, looking for the seat where he was waiting for others.

Although they wanted to hide their identity, they did not treat themselves too badly in terms of travel.

When Austin bought tickets, they bought the first-class carriage. The more advanced ones were not without them, but that was contrary to their intention to conceal their identity, so there was no need.

Allen walked at the end of the four, looking at Boll with his head down for some reason to laugh.

He looked at Boer as if he had seen an ancient beast breaking into a narrow house, very cautious.

Although it is somewhat inappropriate, it is very appropriate to use this statement to describe the feeling in Allen's heart at this time.

However, this situation did not last long, and soon Bor found his place to be with him.

The seats in the first-class car are looser than ordinary carriages. On one side of the passage are two rows of seats, opposite each other, and on the other side is a single row of seats, two passengers face to face.

When Austin bought tickets, he bought two seats on one side, and the seats for four people were just connected together.

Renard sat down by the window, Allen sat next to Renard, Austin sat opposite Renard, and Bor sat in the aisle.

If others come to see you, they will probably just feel that the four people they met have sat down without much consideration.

But if the knowledgeable person reflects this scene into his eyes, he will naturally know the profound meaning of Austin and others' arrangements.

Before leaving, he already knew the composition of the train and his location.

So, their seats have been arranged long ago.

While driving towards Malton City, they discussed the possible attacks, locations, and circumstances.

And the steam train is one of the key points.

After careful consideration, they believed that the other party was not likely to use powerful weapons outside the car, and more so, the other party was taking action inside the steam train.

Therefore, the faster-responsive two combatants, Bor and Allen, are more suitable to act as the first line of defense.

This is also a proposal that everyone agrees with.

I waited for the bus, but there were no twists and turns during the period when I got on the bus.

After getting on the bus, everyone sat there quietly and did not communicate and discuss like other passengers around them.

The later you get, the less time you spend resting, which is a certain fact.

They don't know when the danger will come, but all they can do is try to keep an energetic posture before this.

Woo woo woo woo woo!

The harsh whistle suddenly resounded, and the stationary train also moved.

Crack snap...
