Ember’s Gun

Chapter 47: The Glory

Views:

Although it was already night, it was still extremely bright here. Hundreds of electric lights flickered under the dome made of steel and concrete like shining stars. Several meters long transparent glass walls divided this huge and unprecedented space perfectly.

This is a miracle of human industry, an industrial creation known as the Old Dunling Central Railway Station. It is the transportation heart of Old Dunling. Hundreds of railways extend outward from this heart, covering every territory of Old Dunling. Huge amounts of water vapor gushed out from it and finally condensed on the surrounding steel. The air was humid and cold.

Lorenzo stood at the edge of the platform, still wearing the standard attire, a black deerstalker hat and a black coat with a white lining underneath, the chain of his pocket watch slightly protruding from the corner of the pocket.

He was just an ordinary traveler, as if he was going to meet a friend. In his arms, he was holding a brown box with one corner slightly open, revealing beautiful flowers.

Sitting on a bench at the side, Lorenzo lowered his head, took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, standing among the crowd like a sculpture.

He continued like this for a long time until a melodious whistle sounded.

The iron creation came slowly, breathing out endless steam, dragging more than twenty carriages behind it. Cold dewdrops condensed on the steel, like a giant python roaming the earth.

There is a bronze statue of a lion standing on the heavy front of the train, and white words are painted on the rusty body, which is the name of the train.

The Glorious steam locomotive was built decades ago to commemorate the victory of the Glorious War, but with the passage of time, most of them have been retired. Lorenzo did not expect to see it today.

It is also part of the Atrium Serpent system, connecting the entire world. With just a few silver coins, you can reach every place in the world at will, and this is the power of technology.

Distance is no longer a reason to limit people's progress. Even Lorenzo wanted to go to the mysterious town of Ende. There was a train tonight, and he just happened to catch it.

"Sir, do you need..."

"No need."

The steward saw Lorenzo approaching and tried to help him with his luggage, but he was rejected before he even touched Lorenzo.

Lorenzo's cold look made the steward at a loss, but he saw countless passengers every day and didn't take this little episode to heart at all.

After entering the carriage, Lorenzo went straight to his seat, and finally stopped at a window seat, then put the suitcase at his feet. Although the action was very light, when the suitcase fell, everyone could feel the heaviness of the suitcase. It was full of weapons for hunting demons.

Although Lorenzo never mentioned it directly, he was actually a retired demon hunter. Just as he said to Sabo at that time, becoming a priest was a prerequisite for becoming a Templar Knight, and the elite among the Templar Knights would become demon hunters.

Obviously, all the demons are dead and he has enjoyed six years of retirement time, but now these guys are back again. This is Lorenzo's bottom line. No matter what conflicts of interest there are, he must find out why these damn things appear again.

The end of the train is a city in the west. Because a large number of minerals were discovered in the west, development there has been started in recent years, but the degree of development is not high and has not attracted people's attention.
