Chapter 712: Don't be afraid of the next star furnace.
"Oh, this is how the Banshees ride the subway. You know, they're really too tall, so if they want to get into the car, they have to use this method."
The height of a banshee is generally over three meters, and due to space limitations in subway cars, it is basically impossible to make it that high.
Zeus's original design was to let them lie down, but that would take up too much space and it was also a bit weird.
Others were standing while Banshee was lying down, and it felt awkward like she was walking onto someone else's berth.
The banshees could coil their tails, but that would be too cramped, so they would rather stick their heads out of the car window, resulting in such a weird scene from the outside.
After entering the carriage, the three of them found an empty seat and sat down, right next to a banshee. The banshee was tall and could take up the space of three people in a whole row.
Beatrice looked at it and hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong?"
"Does she need to buy three tickets?"
“.”
"No need." The enchantress beside him said faintly, "Because I'm standing."
Beatrice turned her head and found that the banshee was really standing on the floor of the carriage. She folded the seat and moved it away so that she had space to stand.
Speaking of which, the Banshee's lower body is a snake tail, so she can't sit and can only stand.
The scene was so bizarre that it took Beatrice a long time to recover.
She suddenly noticed that she seemed to have accepted the existence of these alien races without realizing it.
Beatrice had seen banshees before and had heard that there were many of them. She was actually quite surprised when she first saw Monica, but she quickly put these things aside.
These banshees seem to have some kind of magical power. They are clearly a different race, their body shapes are very different from humans, and even their personalities are very different, but it is easy to ignore the fact that they are not human.
Of course, it is also possible that they are too good at making trouble, and their identities are completely insignificant compared to the outrageous extent of their actions.
Soon the subway started moving, and wind whistled through the opening above. Beatrice suddenly realized that the train the banshee was sitting in could actually be considered a convertible.
“Does this car burn pollution?”
"Yes, Castel's main power source is still the steam engine. Explosive internal combustion engines are rarely used."
Gaia spoke with some difficulty.
To be honest, the current penetration rate of new energy such as internal combustion engines is actually very low.
But the speed of expansion is extremely exaggerated, especially among the Crusaders.
The reason is simple. The Crusaders generally have a habit of worshipping equivalent and are quite fond of primitive explosives such as nitroglycerin. Monica's shock bomber just happens to satisfy all their fantasies.
Sitting on an exploding engine and speeding at ten times the throttle, which Skitarii can resist the temptation?
Not to mention the ejection mode, that's real ejection.
This gave Hughes a headache - the engine on Blue Star was calculated by displacement, while Castel's was calculated by equivalent.
Gaia also hated this, but there was nothing she could do. She came from a family that managed an explosives factory, and she simply couldn't be happy about having a pile of explosives under her butt.
The train started moving. We were underground here, with only dim lights, and we couldn't see the sides clearly at all.
Beatrice looked at the flames flying past on both sides, and for a moment she felt like she was traveling through the Milky Way, with stars flashing by on both sides.
"We're here." A station announcement sounded, and Zoe poked Beatrice's waist.
"So soon?"
Beatrice was surprised. She felt like she had just sat down for a short time, but she still got off the bus with the crowd. There seemed to be more people on this side.
"This is the station for Castres Cathedral. It's probably the busiest subway station. You can take a look at the underground platform square later."
The three words "underground", "platform" and "square" were magically combined together, which aroused Beatrice's curiosity. As soon as she got off the car, she looked around with curiosity.
"Wow"
Beatrice thought this was just an empty space, but when she got out of the carriage, she saw a towering dome.
The entire platform is at least several hundred meters long. Looking from one end to the other, the people over there are just a small dot.
Moreover, this place doesn't feel like underground at all. The entire space is extremely open. The dome above is several stories high. You can see layers of platforms high up. Many people take trains in other directions from there.
Between each platform, there are square doors, and inside the doors, the floor rises or falls rhythmically. Some people take advantage of the moment of pause to jump in and out - the Paternoster Elevator is now widely used in the station here, and the platforms are densely packed with elevator doors.
Beatrice suddenly felt that she had come to the Rhine. The Rhine also had layers like this, but there were not so many busy people there, nor the singing and scolding of steam engines. There were only choir singers chanting scriptures.
"Look, over there is an exit from the stellar furnace."
Beatrice raised her head and looked towards the top.
There was a huge hole over there, but now it was filled up completely.
At least hundreds of pipes protruded from the hole, densely packed along the wall and extending in all directions.
It looks like a gigantic octopus, stretching its thousands of tentacles in all directions.
That's in the pipe.
Beatrice's heart moved, and she suddenly sensed something. She could feel that what was flowing and howling in the pipes was pollution.
Countless pipes transported pollution to all parts of Castel.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but as if it felt her gaze, the pollution in the pipes paused for a moment.
Beatrice felt a sense of closeness from it?
Wait, why should I get close to her? Is it because she also spits out pollution?
Or is the Stellar Furnace looking forward to the new fountain joining?
"Let's go, let's go up first." Zoe patted Beatrice's shoulder and pointed to the elevator on the side.
Beatrice had basic mechanical knowledge and figured out how to use the elevator after just a few moments of observation.
The three of them took a specially guarded elevator. After passing through security checks, Beatrice saw the opportunity to jump into the elevator, and then her eyes went dark.
The elevator cabin entered the mezzanine and soon lit up again, revealing the scene on the upper platform. Beatrice's eyes showed a strange look.
She clearly didn't move her feet, but she seemed to be touring the station.
"This leads directly to the cathedral. Let's go to the lord's office first, but..."
"What's wrong?"
"We'll pass by the stellar furnace," Zoe said nervously. "Do you want to close your eyes first?"
"Don't worry, there's no need. I know there's an evil god burning in the stellar furnace, and it can't scare me." Beatrice said confidently.
