Chapter 247: Steam Locomotive

When he woke up in the morning, Ed felt that his head was particularly heavy, and the poor quality of sleep made Ed have dark circles under his eyes. The shocking news brought by the Kazuki Ji and them yesterday made Ide think hard for a long time, thinking about how he and the Ancient Ya Cult would face this coming storm of Thres.

Today, the grassroots support group from the Cult of Money God will arrive in Haenst City, so Ed doesn't even have time to get some sleep.

Walking out of his living room and walking to the corridor, on one side of the corridor is the beautiful greening of the rockery pond designed by Gao Sen, the famous builder of the Duchy of Hughes, Yide took a deep breath, and the fresh air lifted Yide's spirit.

Looking up, in the green belt of the courtyard of the cloister, a tall tree has grown overnight, and the unknown white flowers dot the canopy, and there is a sweet smell, which seems to have a hallucinogenic effect, and people can't help but indulge in it and stretch their body and mind.

Phantom Demon Tree, one of the top ten terrifying plants on the list of dangerous plants in the Divine Grace Continent. The sweet smell it released could even be confused by a seventh-level powerhouse, and finally become fertilizer under the tree. Being able to plant such a dangerous tree in the Holy See of the Ancient Asian God Cult and make this terrifying plant non-aggressive, don't think about it, this is what the plant-based super monster Hanazuki Ji has nothing to do.

Of course, it's not just the Phantom Tree that is now in danger in the garden, the grass that grows vigorously in the garden has also been renovated by Hanazukihime, and the emerald green fruits the size of fingernails are in the shadow of the blades of grass. This is the Dark Thunder Grass, which is also one of the top ten dangerous plants, and each of its small fruits has the ability to rival a fourth-level alchemy explosive.

With such a large clump of dark thunder grass in the courtyard, it is unknown how many dark thunder fruits are ready to go. However, Yide was sure that in the face of this situation, even if a seventh-level powerhouse came to this courtyard, once he showed hostility and was perceived by the Dark Thunder Grass. Then the possibility that this seventh-level powerhouse will not come back is quite huge.

In the courtyard, Kazuki Ji sat quietly on the branch of the Phantom Demon Tree, swaying her white jade-like legs. Xudra stood under the Phantom Tree. Early in the morning, I was excited to grill the fish caught from the pond and eat it.

Well, after the ornamental fish in the artificial lake on the other side of College City were tragically attacked by the bear child Shadow Ball. The ornamental fish in the pond in the courtyard where Ide lived were also poisoned by the older bear children.

"Id, you look tired? It doesn't matter, it's just that the support group of the Money God Sect is here, and it's not a big deal, so you might as well continue to sleep. Noticing Id's helpless smile in the cloister, he saw the exhaustion on Id's face. Hua Yueji was slightly stunned, jumped down from the treetops with both hands and floated in front of Yide, grabbed one of Yide's hands worriedly, and poured rich life power into Yide's body. Eliminated the fatigue for Ed.

Kazukihime also knows how shocking the news she brought to Id yesterday, the god may have fallen into such an unbelievable thing, which made Ide lose sleep last night, and Kazuki still feels very normal.

Words of concern for Kazuki Hime. Ide shook his head slightly, with a slight smile on his face, "It's okay, and thank you Hanazukihime, I feel more energetic now." The leader of the support group is Nina. I didn't say goodbye to the saint girl after reading the selection, and I always felt a little sorry for her. ”

……

At noon, a large carriage procession of nearly 200 people passed through the city of Hahnst and stopped outside the city of Haunst, and at the top of the carriage, the banner of the Cult of Money was fluttering in the wind.

In a makeshift tent newly erected outside the city, Ed and Nina meet again.

"Sure enough, the laying of the steam locomotive track is indispensable, relying on horse-drawn carriages to transport it is too slow and tiring, and the alchemy airboat has a very low cargo capacity, which consumes a lot of energy and is too wasteful." In the tent, Nina spread out a huge map and drew in circles on it with some complaints.

"Steam locomotives?" Id, who was sitting on the side smiling, heard Nina's muttering, and his eyes lit up. Ide patted his head in annoyance, he said a long time ago that the Divine Grace Continent is now in the era of magic energy, similar to the electric age of the earth in Id's previous life, and before the development of the era of magic energy, it was the age of steam.

There are steam locomotives on the Divine Grace Continent, and the two empires have this kind of track for steam locomotives, but other regions seem to have two tracks leading to Chloe and Thris in the kingdom where the Cult of Money is located.

The steam locomotive is indeed Id's negligence in this regard, recalling the great effect of the train in the previous life, Ide felt quite annoyed, if he had proposed to Queen Valedel of Syrnia earlier, I believe that with the power of Syrnia, this convenient and fast locomotive track can be quickly laid to all the first-tier cities in the kingdom.

Steam locomotives, which are an excellent means of transportation that can shorten the "distance" between regions. It will speed up the pace of people's lives and make city-to-city communication mundane and simple. A steam locomotive with the function of transporting goods can also accelerate regional economic development and broaden people's horizons, which is simply a good thing to kill multiple birds with one stone.

The steam train track had to be laid, and it had to be done in a short time. Ide and Nina reached a consensus almost in a short time.

After discussing with Ide for a long time, Nina marked a red route between Rude City and Mandel City on the map, and then concluded: "The initial track laying started from Ruud City, where the headquarters of the Money God Cult of our Josephine Kingdom was located, and passed through Haunst City, and the end point was Mandel City, one of the first-tier cities in Syrnia. ”

This kind of route arrangement is actually Yide's desire to let the Ancient Asian Divine Cult also take this ride on the steam locomotive track. Ide was sure that once the track of this route was opened, it would definitely bring great benefits to the Cult of Ancient Gods and the city of Hahnst.

Ide nodded in agreement, rubbed his chin and said, "Well, but there is one thing that needs to be taken into account. Although most of the route is in a safe area. But we still need to protect the railways, and even in the safe zone, there may be small metal-eating creatures such as gold-eating ants. ”

Regarding Ide's concern, the serious Nina smiled and patted her chest, "Don't worry about this, we will set up a Ministry of Railways to carry out regular patrols and maintenance of the railways." As for the few places that rub the edge with the gathering place of demonic beasts, hehe, our sect's golden warband is already rusty, it's time for them to make a move. ”

Ide nodded clearly, and Nina's pride also infected Id, "In that case, the Syrnian side will be solved by the Syrnians." This section of the path of the Principality Alliance is in charge of our Ancient Asian Divine Cult. At the same time, I was also going to send the two knights out to clean up the bandits. ”

Id and Nina hit it off, and Ide wrote a letter to Queen Valedelle of Syrnia directly in the tent and solemnly handed it to Nina in person.

"Alright. We're done! The organization's subordinates finished counting the grassroots apprentices brought by Ide, and Nina stretched lazily.

"Nina, it's a pity that I didn't get the place of saint." Ide smiled and looked at Nina's amorous stretching movement.

Nina was stunned to see Ed's concerned eyes, and couldn't help but sneer, "It's okay, it's okay." To be honest, I was originally a saint. Vivien is indeed more suitable to be a saint than I am. And to be honest, I'm very grateful to Vivian, because it was because Vivian became a saint that I realized myself more deeply, and I was essentially a businessman, a walking merchant who liked to run around. It's good that I didn't become a saint, otherwise my status as a saint would have become a shackle that binds my 'self'. ”

"Of course, it's a pity that I didn't become a saint, and my dream of easily entering the old man and old lady's group in my later years died like this." Nina said regretfully, apparently still obsessed with the benefit of being promoted to the College of Cardinals.

"With Nina's own ability, you will definitely be able to enter the Cardinal Order of the Money God Cult in the future."

"Well, I'll borrow your good words."

ps:

Anyway, shouldn't I speed up the plot...... Embarrassment
