Chapter 336: The Knights Charging Towards the Train
He stood there blankly, watching the smoke and dust rising from the road in the distance.
A monster that had just been seen was moving quickly from the front, and behind her were dozens or even hundreds of other monsters.
Looking closely, the one running in front was holding a stack of papers in her hand, and the one chasing her was actually trying to snatch the papers from her hand.
What kind of paper would make these extraordinary monsters fight so hard for it? Galahad shuddered, probably filled with twisted blasphemies.
No, that’s not important. What’s important is, why are there so many extraordinary creatures here?
The number just now. Was it a hundred? At least several dozen, right? How many extraordinary people are there in the entire church? Even if there are more than the number in front of me, it is limited.
How could such a remote island gather so many extraordinary beings? Am I crazy, or is this world crazy?
Galahad only felt that there seemed to be hallucinations in front of his eyes, and there were inexplicable whispers in his ears, which were so noisy and irritating.
It's bad, his cognition started to shift, and he was slowly falling into the sea of unconsciousness.
Calm down, calm down, you must calm down, don't look at those monsters, look at more normal things.
Galahad tried to calm himself down while looking around. There were few pedestrians and huge tentacles in the distance. Although the current situation was a bit troublesome, it was not too dangerous. As long as he gradually consolidated his cognition, there would be no problem.
Hallucinations are also easy to distinguish. The tentacles that appear inexplicably in the distance are a good reference. How could such a strange thing exist on the island?
Galahad kept telling himself that it was an illusion and tried to stay calm, but the dizziness did not disappear at all, but became more and more intense.
Alexei noticed his strangeness, followed his gaze to see the black polluted snake, and nodded in sudden realization.
"That's Castel's energy supply system. You are a transcendent, right? Please stay away from it. It contains materialized pollution, which is the fuel for the stellar furnace."
Materialized pollution? Energy supply system? Star furnace? Fuel!? Why can I understand each word individually, but not together?
Shit, the damn tentacle wasn't an illusion at all, he chose the wrong anchor!
Galahad's consciousness began to blur.
Alexei didn't pay much attention to all this. He was still leading the way and explaining. According to the plan, the two of them would take a steam locomotive to Castres Cathedral.
There is no way. The web system is currently undergoing transformation and involves many secrets, so it is not convenient to open it to the public for the time being.
The cathedral had long been completely fortified, with only the passage on the ground reserved for armored trains to enter, and all other passages leading into the wall were underground.
Galahad stood there with a dazed expression, and followed Alexei all the way to the platform in a daze. It was not until the shrill whistle of the steam locomotive sounded that he shuddered, drew his sword, and looked around vigilantly.
"Mr. Galahad? Galahad!?"
Alexei called out to him several times, but under the continuous stimulation, Galahad's reaction was quite stressful.
He turned over and jumped off the platform, wanting to use his sword to fight the huge steel monster in front of him. The sharp whistle sounded like the roar of the monster before attacking, and Galahad clenched his sword.
"Monster! Come on, I'm not afraid of you!"
He charged towards the locomotive, brandishing his sword. At the moment when he was about to hit the monster, he dodged the attack by leaning sideways with his superb martial arts, and the sword accurately hit the monster's head.
From the perspective of the onlookers around him, he suddenly went crazy, yelling and rushed towards the steam train.
Fortunately, the train was originally planning to stop here. When he rushed over, the train had almost stopped. His sword only hit the front armor of the train, and it flew out as soon as it came into contact, spinning into the distance.
Galahad is a transcendent being with extremely powerful physical strength, many times greater than that of ordinary people. He can almost single-handedly fight against an entire team of elite mortal soldiers.
But facing him was a steam locomotive weighing hundreds of tons and covered with armor. How many mortal soldiers it could fight off alone depended only on how much fuel it carried.
The powerful extraordinary being was defeated by an ordinary steam locomotive. Fortunately, it was stopped, so neither side was seriously injured.
Alexei stood there in a daze. It took him a long time to realize that the other party was not joking with him, so he quickly called for help.
The patrolling banshee noticed the commotion here, and quickly rushed over, picked up Galahad, and sent him to the hospital. By the way, the hospital on the island was opened by Richard, and he finally found an interest or hobby other than dissecting corpses.
Hughes listened to the report in amazement.
He really didn't expect that something would go wrong with the first guest who came to Castel.
When he heard Galahad attacking the locomotive, he could no longer hold back and interrupted Alexei:
"Wait a minute, he really charged at the steam locomotive? Are you sure his name is Galahad, not Don Quixote?"
"Don Quixote? Who is that?"
"Forget it, forget about it." Hughes covered his face. "Is there anything else?"
"Well, Nini wrote a new report, which was enthusiastically pursued by the banshees. It was really enthusiastic."
"Whatever she wrote, it must be banned and prohibited from being distributed! What else?"
"Captain Jeremiah insisted on installing two new steam engines, saying that one was not powerful enough for his Black Pearl."
Ever since Castel came out of the Temple of Poseidon, he has been unable to use the ritual to stably summon the Noisy Ones. This steam engine seems to be inextricably linked to the soul of Poseidon.
But soon the engineers on the island discovered that they could summon a machine soul by using a summoning ritual near the stellar furnace, and this type of machine soul seemed to be easier to communicate with. Examples of successful communication with machine souls continued to emerge, and the engineers were trying to figure out a complete process for pleasing the machine souls.
There were still a lot of stocks of Noisy Ones in the previous deep sea war, so at this time, the new steam engines and Noisy Ones coexisted on the island.
"He also wants to add a new steam engine? He will please the machine spirit?"
"Captain Jeremiah does seem to have some talent. After he drank a few bottles of sweet fruit wine with the steam engines, two ship steam engines did recognize him. He said that he hoped these two 'new friends' would go on an adventure with him."
Xiu Si's face twitched. Why did he feel that Castel's pursuit of technology was getting more and more off track? "By the way, Lord, there is another strange thing. We have found through experiments that all mechanical creations will be enhanced near Castel."
