MTL - Transcendent Dawn-Chapter 823 train
The latest website: Stormwind Villa.
In the middle of the night, Mary woke up.
Cang Dang! Cang Dang!
In the silence, only the long pendant of the mahogany grandfather clock was still swaying from side to side, and a faint sound was heard.
She has grown up in this manor since she was a child, knowing that her parents like clocks and other mechanical objects.
In the hall of the manor, in the corridors of the corridor, and in the owner's collection room, what is displayed is not precious antiques, but pieces of mechanical objects.
And all kinds of mechanical clocks are the couple's favorite.
Dangdang!
The bell rang at 12 o'clock.
"Grandma! Grandma!"
Mary called several times, but no one answered.
She got up, in her pajamas, rubbing her eyes.
Beyond the door, the light of orange candles shined through.
The little girl hugged the teddy bear and sneaked out of the bedroom, perhaps just for a novel adventure, or perhaps just a subconscious stroll.
"The maids, maids, butlers, butlers in the manor... I always feel a little strange recently..."
Mary thought to herself, and walked to a corner.
She saw Bob the butler sitting there, expressionless and wide-eyed, like a puppet.
The little girl was frightened instantly.
After a long time, she gritted her teeth and pushed forward and pushed Bob's shoulder.
Click!
Just this time, Bob's head fell off, and gear bearings and spring parts popped out from the joint of his neck.
"what!"
Mary was frightened and ran across the long corridor quickly, trying to find her parents.
"Miss..."
On the way, she saw a maid.
The opponent's movement is abnormally mechanical, it seems to be just a clockwork doll, with a crunching sound in the movement of the joints: "Nightwalking is not a behavior that a lady should do."
She reached out her hand, as if trying to catch Mary.
"Do not!"
Mary dexterously walked around her and rushed up the stairs.
"Go to Mom and Dad..."
With tears in her eyes, she ran out of her parents' bedroom.
The door was not locked, it opened immediately.
Mary stared blankly at the scene inside, and the teddy bear in her hand fell to the ground.
Her father, with a wrench in his hand, was repairing a huge mechanical doll.
The doll is entirely composed of metal bars and gear nuts, the proportions of an adult, and there is an old woman's head on the table next to it.
"Oh? Mary, are you coming to see your mother? Sorry... she will fix it soon."
Mary's father turned his head and greeted stiffly.
His expression was dull, and the expression on his face seemed to freeze, making a mechanical sound.
"Do not!!!"
The little girl's sharp voice echoed in the manor.
...
Clang... Clang...
The steam train skimmed over the rails, making a unique clash of steel, occasionally accompanied by a few long whistle.
Jenny trembled all over, as if she had just woke up from a nightmare.
The dim light, the dim night outside the window, and the drowsy passengers around all indicate exactly that this is a steam train that runs at night—a new thing that has just emerged in recent years.
Storm Mountain Villa is located in a rural area, six or seven hours' train journey from Sealand.
After arriving at the place, you must transfer to a carriage.
Jenny is on the way to get there.
‘I’m falling asleep... Am I too tired lately? ’
She laughed mockingly, rubbed her eyebrows again, her expression calmed down: ‘I’m already a fourth-order saint...Is the sudden awakening just now a spiritual warning? ’
‘I got a lot of ancient documents through my adventures, coupled with my own understanding and experience, and deduced the fifth-level integration plan... Why do I still feel uneasy? ’
Originally, according to the orthodox thinking of the Free City Federation, after perfecting the spider stigma, the bloodline of the Eight-Eyed Demon Spider should continue to be promoted and become a more powerful ancient monster.
But Jenny, who was already mixed with weird blood, couldn't take this path.
As time passed, she felt more and more the influence of that eye on her.
It is growing madness and chaos, and it also carries the danger of split personality.
Only constant promotion can be slightly suppressed. Even so, there has been a rumor in academia that the inventor of the Jenny steam engine is a quirky and moody woman.
‘This time...it must be successful to get the right monster bloodline! ’
Jenny made up her mind.
What she didn't know was that just now, two white men in their thirties wearing trench coats passed by her and came to another carriage.
"Forest Kingdom, a lot has changed... However, the most advanced steam train is ours in the Kingdom of Tallinn, as well as the railway!"
Fitch said proudly.
"These have no meaning..."
Warren said disapprovingly: "Don't forget our purpose this time."
Unlike Fitch, who was originally a foreigner, he was considered a ‘traitor’ and acted very low-key: "This time...the news about mechanical strange things is rare, so I can’t let it go!"
"It's a pity that it is not in our country, otherwise it would be much more convenient to maneuver...Even in the Free City-State Alliance, you don't need a great scientist to venture out."
Fitch promised: "But when we get there, there will be a small team of'combat scholars' coming to support."
"This is what I actively requested. After all... the material is precious and worth studying."
Warren said indifferently: "Besides...I'm not weak either."
On his chest, an owl spreads its wings and is about to fly, obviously complete.
"But... you have to assure me that you have given up that crazy idea!"
Fitch suddenly said solemnly: "After completing the stigmata, is it not good to follow the orthodox route? The bloodline of the ancient monsters is already very crazy. Don't think about evil things!"
"But... the power of some evil things is indeed very attractive, um... well, I assure you, I have given up on that idea..."
Valen raised his hands helplessly.
...
When the thick fog in the early morning gradually dissipated ~www.novelbuddy.com~ the steam train also greeted the morning sun and stopped on a platform in a small town.
"Welcome to Stormwind Town!"
Above the platform, there is also a huge slogan.
Scattered passengers got off the train.
Carrying the suitcase, Jenny was about to leave the train station, called a public carriage, and suddenly glanced at Warren.
Although the other party disguised a little, she was recognized by her. After all, the person the teacher had specially reminded was the inventor of the steam train and was naturally impressed.
'Why is he here? ’
Jenny diverted her eyes naturally.
At this time, Warren also looked over, but of course he didn't find Jenny wearing a "pretender" and followed Fitch into the carriage.
