Chapter 830: The True Face of the Unknown Race (Part 1)

Chapter 830: The True Face of the Unknown Race (Part 1)

While being shocked in his heart, Lei Xiao continued to stare intently.

I saw that the steam locomotive in front of me was covered with thick dust everywhere, obviously after a long time, and many places on the unknown black metal skin had been corroded and rotted, making it extremely mottled.

In addition to the conventional structure, the locomotive is also inlaid with many unknown gemstones of various colors, which are also covered with thick dust.

But it can be clearly seen that these gems are connected by a magic pattern engraved on the surface of the car body, just like the components on the circuit board, which look complex and deep.

"What is this? What a strange structure."

Beside Lei Xiao, Ariel was full of surprise, obviously she had never seen such a strange combination of technology and magic.

"This is a means of transportation on the ground, just like the carriage and the airship in the sky, but it is faster, but it also requires a special energy source different from magic, that is steam."

Lei Xiao nodded to Ariel, while thinking secretly in his heart.

After this period of understanding, Lei Xiao has clearly understood.

In this different world of swords and magic, magic power is the only source of energy.

Since the human race only occupies a part of this land and is not the master of this land, it is necessary to beware of alien troops at all times. In addition, there are many monsters in this land, and there are dangers everywhere.

Therefore, most people put their energy on self-cultivation, equipment forging that can intuitively improve combat power, research on magic, and research and development of magic cannons.

This makes the overall technological level of the human race in this world lag behind, roughly equivalent to the level of the late Middle Ages, and the application of machinery only stays at the level of windmills and water turbines.

But even so, the human race is already the ceiling of technology. Other well-known races such as the elves, winged humans, and dwarves are not even as good as the human race in terms of technological applications in daily life.

After all, most of these alien races admire nature, have a comfortable personality, and lack the curiosity and thirst for knowledge of the human race.

And under such circumstances, this unknown race has actually reached the level of the first industrial revolution and started to use steam as power, which is really amazing.

Surprised, Lei Xiao wandered his gaze, continued to observe, and soon discovered other clues.

That is, except for the front part of the train, the carriage of unknown length behind this magic-steam hybrid train is actually tightly embedded in the soil without a single gap.

Moreover, the wheels of the train are not in contact with any track, and there is no shadow of the track around.

That weird and disharmonious scene, just like this strange train, flashed out of nowhere in this not spacious underground space, it seemed extremely out of place.

"I was so surprised just now, how did this train appear here?"

"You know, this is the interior of the "Gate of Wandering". It is surprising enough for a small town to appear. How could there be another train? "

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao's eyes were filled with doubts.

"My lord, most of these gems have a trace of energy fluctuations of the space system, and the outer skin of this thing is also made of the same raw material as the storage ring, which should be able to form a special protective barrier against the void space. Just like the one used by subordinates to cast teleportation."

After carefully inspecting it for a while, Jiang Li was amazed at Lei Xiao: "If my subordinates' expectations are correct, this thing seems to be able to shuttle back and forth between the void space and the real space, so as to achieve the same level of strength as the strong space system. Instantaneous movement effect."

"Good guy, so this is not just a magic and steam hybrid train, but also a teleportation train that can travel through space?"

The surprise on Lei Xiao's face became more and more obvious, and he muttered to himself: "Everything about this unknown race really makes people more and more curious."

"My lord, it seems that this rusted metal door can still be opened."Discover new chapters at novelhall.com

I saw the burly knotweed standing in front of the cab at the back half of the locomotive, nodded to Lei Xiao and said, "Do you need your subordinates to remove it?"

"Knotweed, you are always so reliable."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows, and said with a faint smile, "Take it off, it's time to see who this unknown race is."

"Obey, my lord."

Accompanied by the respectful response of the knotweed, the thick rusty metal door weighing at least several hundred kilograms was easily dismantled by the knotweed, and then gently put aside.

So far, the inside of this magical teleportation train has been displayed in front of Lei Xiao and his party.

"Let's go in and have a look."

Lei Xiao thought of the stairs and the door of the cab when he came down, and nodded thoughtfully.

As for the uppermost town, although they are all the size of a human race, it is very likely that it is just a disguise.

Thinking of this in his heart, Lei Xiao ordered to the other subordinates: "Okay, let's go to the back compartment to have a look."

The subordinates bowed to give orders, and once again lined up in the exploration formation.

When Lei Xiao came to a section of the carriage behind the driver's cab through the smaller carriage door that was removed by the knotweed again, his face was filled with surprise.

This place is completely different from the trains and high-speed trains that Lei Xiao has seen. Not only is the area more spacious, but the space utilization rate is very high.

Except for the aisle in the middle, both sides have a three-story structure, some of which are similar to sleeper cars, and each floor is connected by a fixed ladder.

But the difference is that this is not a place to rest, but a place to work.

There are more than 20 empty workbenches in the area on the left, while the area on the right is an area similar to a library or a library, in which there are a large number of bookshelves engraved with exquisite patterns, and each bookcase is full of sheepskins. roll.

Unfortunately, after some inspection, Lei Xiao found out.

These sheepskin scrolls have all rotted and deteriorated, and many of them are left with only a pile of debris, and the words and patterns on them cannot be recognized at all.

"It's interesting, let's move on."

After searching carefully, Lei Xiao once again ordered the knotweed to remove the carriage door blocking the way.

Next, Lei Xiao and his team passed through the magic plant cultivation compartment, the feeding room compartment, the forging room compartment, the magic workshop compartment, the empty equipment compartment and warehouse compartment, the tavern and restaurant compartment, the rest compartment, the research room compartment, and even the There is also a bathroom compartment, which surprised the whole group.

The layout of each carriage here is extremely elegant, not only extremely practical, but also artistic, except for the fixed rows of deep magic lines in each carriage.

All kinds of exquisite floral textures can be seen everywhere, and even the thick dust can't hide their brilliance.

Coupled with the mottled and vicissitudes that have been covered for a long time, each carriage is like a small museum, with a heavy sense of history and a sense of unknown curiosity everywhere.

The most important thing is that this place is full of traces of the combination of technology and magic, which is very different from the outside world, giving people a very strange feeling.

"I have to say that this unknown race is really extraordinary. It's like coming to a scene in a movie, with never-ending trains and endless snowstorms."

After walking out of the empty bathroom compartment, Lei Xiao's eyes were already full of surprise: "It really makes people more and more curious about the true face of this unknown race."

"My lord, but there are no corpses here either. Is it also a lost relic?"

In addition to being surprised, Ariel couldn't help but wondered: "Or, the reason why this space train appears here is because of the "misplaced object effect"? "

"It's definitely not the "misplaced object effect", otherwise there would be no abandoned towns, pressure detection barriers, and vigilant golem puppets on it. "

Lei Xiao denied one of Ariel's thoughts, and said in a deep voice: "As for whether this is a lost ruin, as long as we finish exploring, we will have the answer."

After Lei Xiao finished speaking, he turned his gaze back to the carriage in front of him.

This is a carriage with a larger area, and the structure is even more amazing.

The carriage in front of me is full of large and small metal gears, racks, springs and connecting shafts.

The structure of a layer of gears inside a layer of gears makes the entire carriage a very precise and huge machine Only the middle aisle is left empty, which looks complicated and orderly.

At a glance, the huge machinery itself and the exquisiteness of every detail complement each other, giving people a different kind of beauty.

However, a closer look reveals another scene.

After a long time of honing, every part of the huge machinery has been covered with traces of corrosion, making it mottled.

But every gear on it is still biting tightly with each other, as if it is doing a silent struggle, and it seems that it doesn't pay attention to time at all.

Although the whole machine seems to be unable to operate again, Lei Xiao can still clearly observe the process of kinetic energy transmission in each local area until it is dazzling.

In the end, Lei Xiao's eyes fell on piles of gears marked with numbers, and he slowly uttered a few words.

"So it's a difference engine? This race is really getting more and more surprising."
