Chapter 306: Ranch Begins to Let Go of Himself
With a slight jolt, the passengers in the carriage realized that they had reached the Rock Junction Station, and that the Magic Rail train was about to come to a standstill.
Outside the window, the station's magnificent concourse gradually unfolds in front of you.
The station hall is spacious and bright, with a clear glass ceiling that allows for a faint amount of natural light to flood the entire hall, and works by local artists depicting the history and culture of Iwabox Mountain hang on the walls.
Each platform is supported by huge stone pillars that blend seamlessly into the main body of the station, which used to be lined with trains from the north to connect the northern city-states with the south-central part of Protos, but now the number of trains entering the station is so low that the bustling station is slightly desolate.
Ranch and Sid stood up from the carriage and took their suitcases in their hands.
As they walked down the aisle of the carriage, they saw a number of uniformed Imperial soldiers patrolling the entire platform, wearing black uniforms and holding glittering weapons in their hands.
Each soldier was expressionless, as if part of the Rock Junction, serious and determined.
The merchant passengers looked a little uneasy, and they cautiously stepped off the train, trying not to make too much eye contact with the soldiers.
There are two walkways at the entrance from the platform level to the concourse level.
Either transfer to the transfer side or exit the station.
The vast majority of passengers made their way to the exit.
As Ranch and Sid walked along the passage of the transfer, they found that there was almost no one.
It wasn't until I was about to check the pass that I finally saw the Imperial soldiers guarding here again.
In front of the checkstand, an officer of medium stature, with a resolute face, and a medal watch on his left chest could probably be seen as a captain, standing there, his eyes sharp, always keeping an eye on every Imperial person who appeared here.
Ranch and Sid glanced at each other and continued to the checkstand.
When they walked up to the captain, the captain glanced at them with a cold look.
"Name, Identity, and Destination."
The captain's voice was deep and powerful.
"Rocky McCarthy, she's my companion Sid Novia, and we're clergy from the imperial capital of Herrom, and we're in charge of assisting the branch in the north."
Lanchi kept his composure, handed out his and West Germany's passes and documents, and said indifferently.
Although he was prepared to be unwelcome, his information was told as it was, and the captain should not be too embarrassed by them.
The Captain nodded, picked up a magic device on the table, and began to examine their credentials.
"It turned out to be a priest of the Silent Branch."
After confirming their identities, the Captain was noticeably calmer and handed them back.
This caused Lanch and Sid to look at each other again.
It turns out that the prestige of the Silent Branch in the north is not low, and even the second lieutenant of the Imperial Army will treat them with courtesy.
You see, in the southern provinces, the resurrection church is very unpopular.
It may also be a close front.
The resurrected churches are most dangerous when they are safe, and they represent safety when they are dangerous.
In the face of the threat of war and unknown terrors, there is a feeling of leaning into darkness in the company of the Resurrection Church.
"If the two of you want to transfer in the direction of the northwest province, it will probably wait until tomorrow morning, because of the snowstorm in the north, the train has been delayed on a large scale, and if you two are ready to continue to transfer to the north, I am afraid it will be a long wait."
The captain added regretfully.
Although he did not know the exact itinerary of the two priests, in this city, if he did not go home, there were only two directions to choose from.
"We want to continue north, why wait so long?"
Lanch did not show the transfer ticket to the Northwest Province that the Imperial Capital's Silent Branch had bought for the two of them, but only planned to buy a ticket to continue north after the city-state of Rock Box Mountain passed the pass inspection, and took West Germany to investigate the dangerous northern front.
But at the moment, it seems that the traffic to the north is difficult.
Sid on the side didn't say anything, just waited for Lanch, she handed over the leadership of the trip to him, and she was responsible for helping with the fight.
"Actually, I don't recommend you to continue to the north."
The captain muttered.
"What's going on up north?"
Ranch asked, confused.
"There's a critical section of the track further north that is broken and hard to repair under the snow, and there hasn't been a train from the north for a few days, so you'll either have to travel by land by other means, or you'll have to wait until the city-state repairs the tracks."
The captain took out the map and circled the route and the fault area for them with his finger,
"In addition, it is said that there are many people missing in the north this year, and the law and order are very chaotic, so you should be careful."
The captain lowered his voice and reminded.
"Is there such a thing?"
Ranch raised an eyebrow.
"Not only that, the imperial capital also came to the special investigator a few days ago, I don't know what happened, and the governor of Box Mountain Province also sent an investigation team to accompany him to the north to investigate the situation on the spot."
"If you want to continue your journey north, it is recommended that you reach the city of Czeston at most and do not go any further, not only the weather is bad, but the terrain is extremely complicated, and if you don't have the help of the locals, putting aside all other dangers, you will probably be buried or frozen to death by the mountain wind and snow first."
The Captain didn't seem to want to get too deep into the subject, and quickly changed the subject, asking if the two needed help contacting their accommodation in the city-state tonight.
He could see that these two elites from the imperial capital were not weak, and they were already quite good and powerful talents in their local area.
But the map further ahead is not something that young people can handle.
……
After not staying long at the checkpoint, the two said goodbye to the captain and walked on the road back to the station hall level.
"Scared? Watch out for the two of us being tied up together. ”
Seeing that Lanch hadn't spoken for a long time, Sid asked with a smile.
Originally, it was Lanchi's whim to go due north, and West Germany didn't mind going with him to follow the original route to the Son of Silence in the Northwest Province to capture the agents of the Ethertalan Kingdom and the Goddess of Fate Church who had infiltrated the empire.
Further north is obviously very dangerous, while the northwestern province is much safer.
Ranchimo rubbed his chin as if he was deep in thought.
"The more order there is, the more I need it."
Ranch muttered to himself.
“?”
The cat boss in the shadow frowned when he heard this.
Obviously, Lanqi said very righteous words.
But it just sounds scary.
It'd heard about what this guy was doing in the Templar world.
This guy is a kidnapper himself!
At every turn, you will have to take off all the organs of other people's blood clans!
