Chapter 699: Open to traffic


The fall of the kingdom of God means that the gods have fallen. After observing the fall of the star representing the ‘plague’, Calvin couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
However, this is not the time to relax!
After the death of the plague god, the pyramid of power will also collapse, although according to the news from various places, it can be learned that the plague detonated the plague in his believers and reaped a force of fear when he was struggling to die. .
However, the subsequent plague was enough to make them scorched. To date, they still have not counted how many territories and how many people have been affected.
Although the power of the plague church is mostly distributed in the Mendes continent, there are not many plagues on the empire side, but this is enough to make them feel upset.
Even if all the churches in the territory have already started disaster relief, they are also working hard to produce antidote for plague, but they are always in short supply.
Plagues broke out all over the place at the same time, and there was no time left for them. That is to say, they had to give up some people to save the lives of others.
But... this must be done too!
Calvin squeezed his cane and stood silently next to the railroad track, watching the track that stretched far into the distance until the foot of the high mountain called the "land of the sun" by the imperial civilians.
Now the sun has not risen, the sky is bright, and the cold wind in winter seems to have blown from the north in advance, bringing news that the railway is running, and also bringing the news that Gregorians are coming back from the north on a steam locomotive.
It seems that the bang of the steam locomotive's wheels rolling over the rails has already sounded, and the whistle on the roof has made a harsh whistle...
Close your eyes as if you can hear it.
Because his hands and feet were still stiff and inconvenient to wear, Calvin wore a coat on his shoulder and stood on the platform with a cane, silently waiting for the elites of the manufacturing and R&D departments to return from the north.
The cold wind of the late autumn blew the clothes hanging down to the calf and took a deep breath of cold, bitter air. The famous research man in the noble circle closed his slightly tingling eyes and calmed his brain a little.
He hasn't had a good night's sleep in seven or eight days. He can only maintain three or four hours of sleep every day. The follow-up things have been torturing his untenable spirit.
Because it is only a trial operation, and the platform is not connected to the urban area, only a few people on the platform are preparing. They are the people who can finally make time for the locomotive inspection in the research and development department and the manufacturing department. Several have not been exposed to steam locomotives before.
But there is no way, there are news from all over the place. After the plague, it may be that the devil or the devil rages on the world. This is what is destined to happen after they decide to give up some people, and it cannot be avoided!
Woo~~
'coming! Calvin opened his tired eyes and suddenly turned to look.
The loud whistle cut through the sky and reached his ears.
Turning his head, the sun was slowly climbing, and now half of it had passed the top of the mountain, and at the foot of the mountain, a slender series of dark shadows was approaching quickly.
It looked like a huge monster, and the researchers around them stopped their preparations and stared into the distance.
The behemoths breathing smoke are approaching at high speed. The suffocation is hard for people living in this era to experience, even if they live in the imperial capital and live in one of the most developed cities in the world, but now Appearing in front of them is the'human limit'-a mechanical creation that can be completed independently by ordinary people.
The existence of the mage is just a icing on the cake. With the steam engine, ordinary people can create more advanced furnaces and smelt more advanced steel. Even without the help of the mage, a group of ordinary people without any power can make it , It just takes more time.
From the moment the steam engine came out, the world should have undergone tremendous changes, but the existence of extraordinary powers has delayed this change so far...
‘Even a powerful mage cannot achieve this level? "People think in this way.
A legendary mage may have a half plane, if they are willing to let outsiders into their laboratory, go to other places through [Advanced Teleportation], and then release the people... ...But would the noble legendary mages do this?
Would they willingly let anyone send a messenger?
Put the steam locomotive and the legendary mage in front of two different kings and let them choose. The weaker king will choose the legendary mage, but the king of the big country will definitely choose the steam locomotive.
Because there are enough "Legends" in their empire!
This is an epoch-making invention that connects all parts of the empire and strengthens the connection between them. This invention is from the hands of their ‘R&D Department’ and ‘Manufacturing Department’. Isn’t this enough to make people feel bloody?
Everyone on the platform raised their necks and looked at the steam locomotive with solemn eyes.
At this time, they seemed to be able to see that the person sitting in the car was looking across from them.
As the steam locomotive slowly approached, the roar of ‘Boom’ rang thundered each of their ears, but this did not make them feel pain, but made them more excited.
Squeak
Dazzling Mars has erupted at the place where the wheels are in contact with the rails. Some people beside Calvin have exclaimed because they have not participated in the manufacture of steam locomotives. I don’t know if this is caused by the braking of the steam locomotive. I thought the car was out. what is the problem.
"Shut up and cough..."
Calvin said lightly, then itchy his throat and couldn't help coughing twice.
The whistle overshadowed his voice. Eventually, the trial operation of the steam locomotive ended with people's exclamation.
There are only two rails between the two platforms, one is ‘going’ and the other is ‘going back’. During the same period, there is only one train for either ‘going’ or ‘going back’.
At the end of the platform is a curve through which the two locomotives travel between the Imperial Capital and the northern city.
After the steam locomotive stopped completely, the people who were locked in the car came out.
This trip can not transport so many people. This is just the first batch. There will be a few more people who need to be transported, but fortunately, Gregory has returned.
Carrying a small suitcase and frowning Gregory came out of the first carriage, he squeezed his stiff shoulder-to be honest, the test run experience was not very good.
Although the benches were loaded in the carriages, only a passage that was barely accessible to one person was left, but even so, the carriages were still very crowded.
The space in the carriage has not been fully utilized. When they sat down, there was still a large space above their heads. When sitting in the car, they still had to hold their suitcases, which was not very good, maybe He can try to install a board on top of the compartment to place objects.
The car door needs to be manually opened. In this case, a door lock should be installed on the door. Only the crew can have the key, so that there is no need to worry about the passengers opening the door of the car.
The windows cannot be completely closed, otherwise the air in the compartment will not circulate. He hates the smell in the compartment before~EbookFREE.me~ There is a need to add a toilet, otherwise...
Thousands of ideas flashed in my head, and Gregory was ready to complete them one by one, raised his head, and at a glance saw his friend who had become tired.
After noticing Gregory’s sight, Calvin yawned,
If it’s okay, I’ll leave the job to you. I haven’t slept in a few days, I’ll get some sleep...

"...Well!" The taciturn manufacturing minister nodded slightly, and then whispered, "This time, you have worked hard."
Calvin, who turned away, did not look back, but waved his hand behind him.
Only each other can understand the patriotic spirit of dealing with them, they are different from those old nobles.
Now that this matter is coming to an end, then they should go to deal with those annoying old nobles!
They hope that the railway will one day be covered with empire.
