Chapter 17: Interlude on the Train



I pushed open the door next to me, and the scene in front of me made me feel a little gloomy. There were many cabinets of different sizes standing there.

I guessed and said, "I think we went through the wrong door. It should be the other side."

Liv: "Commander, there's life in here."

I couldn't help but wonder, "What does this mean?"

I walked towards a cabinet, ready to open it. "Everyone in the Sky Garden, I think our Adilai characters are big enough, right? How could you still get lost?"

I heard a girl's voice from behind, and I pulled my hand back and looked back, seeing a female construct with short white hair and dark skin standing in front of another door.

I hurried over and looked at the so-called clues on the red train wall. Even if I opened my eyes wide, I could only see blurry words and had no idea what they were.

I complained, "I'm sorry, but I can't imagine anyone painting red paint on a maroon train. It's already dried. It really tests my eyesight."

The construct ignored me and continued, "My name is Sofia, and I'm Miss Jamila's bodyguard. Because there's a party going on in the car, Miss Jamila can't greet you in person, so I'll lead you."

After saying that, he took us inside.

Inside is a long corridor with rows of gilded rooms on both sides. Are they so rich?

Sophia explained, "These are the rooms for the nobles on the train. Where you were just now and the carriage behind it are our cargo storage rooms. The front two-thirds of the train is the lobby, where meetings and gatherings are held. The two carriages ahead are the train's shops. The last remaining carriage is where the civilians live, along with the driver's cab and the power room."

This is different from the information I saw in the Sky Garden. This train is much larger than the information. I asked, "Can you give me more details?"

Sophia said calmly, "Is this also the part you're investigating? Anyway, it's not a very important matter. I'll tell you clearly, this train is called the Permanent Train. It has a total of 108 carriages, each 30 meters wide, 40 meters long, and 6 meters high. The 35 carriages at the back are for storing goods. The filtration tower is in the middle of the back. The 36 carriages in the middle are where the nobles live. Carriages 73, 74, and 75 are combined and have various entertainment facilities. Carriages 76, 77, and 78 are the market on the train. 79 to 106 are where the civilians live. 107 is the energy room. The front is where the entire train is controlled. Including the two meters connecting each carriage, the total length of the train is 4,530 meters."

Karenina couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that besides the Hanging Gardens, there is such a huge project."

Sophia: "It's still far behind your Sky Gardens in the Sanctuary, but the Permanent Train has been expanding over the decades."

So, based on the length, we still have to walk over a kilometer. Sophia: "Of course, this car is also equipped with a mobile elevator. It can be used for cargo transportation and transportation. It can also prevent infected bodies from invading and being thrown away by the elevator under the feet. The fastest speed can reach 100 meters per second, but all the nobles have gone to the party, so there is no need to use the elevator. The speed is about the same, so please be patient. I and another construct named Chang Yu are Miss Jamila's guards."

After a few minutes, a white car door appeared in front.

Sophia pushed the door open and went in: "Ms. Jamila, I brought them here."

After I followed him in, the level of magnificence was beyond my imagination. The entire floor was made of special glass, and under the glass were three identical huge clocks inlaid with gems. All the tableware was made of gold, and there were more than a dozen chandeliers made of gold, plus diamonds. And these dishes, there were even top-notch dishes from Kowloon.

The other members of the team were stunned by this phenomenon. There was an exquisite woman with black skin, wearing a shoulder-baring dress and adorned with gold and silver jewelry upstairs. Sophia jumped directly next to her, and there was a boy next to her.

I recognized his clothes at a glance. They were Kowloon's clothes. They looked familiar to me for some reason, because they were not ordinary people's clothes. They were a bit like what the boys in the theater wore when Old Man Hua often went to see the theater. So Kowloon should still be there and not completely destroyed. Could it be that Ross and Old Man Hua are still alive?

At this time, Jamila said: "Welcome everyone in the Hanging Garden. Now that everyone is here, let's start the party."

The nobles who were originally staring at us started drinking and eating.

Jamila slowly walked down from the upstairs and came over to us. Suddenly, she leaned over me, looked at me with extremely charming eyes, and said in a teasing tone, "Ah, are you the commander who defeated the Ascender? You look really good."

Lucia pulled me behind her and said coldly, "For the commander's safety, can you keep a relatively safe distance?"

Jamila smiled and said, "Just kidding, Commander, these are all delicious Kowloon delicacies. You're from Kowloon too, so you probably haven't eaten these in a while, right? Why don't you try them?"

I noticed the food on the table. To be honest, I haven't eaten much of it myself. Only relatively few people can afford the price in Kowloon. But I was eating it with big mouthfuls, and my teammates didn't seem to be doing well either.

Li came over and said, "Commander, don't worry, there's no need to worry about us."

This reassured me, so I started eating. Oh my god, it tasted amazing! But for the sake of face, I couldn't express my feelings in words.
