Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong
Chapter 1415 - Chapter 1415 Chapter 830 The True Appearance of an Unknown

Chapter 1415: Chapter 830: The True Appearance of an Unknown Race (Part 1)_2 Chapter 1415: Chapter 830: The True Appearance of an Unknown Race (Part 1)_2 In the back of the cockpit, although the shape was somewhat peculiar, like helical blades meticulously pieced together, Leo Ray could still recognize that this was evidently the furnace mouth where heat was added.

At the bottom of the black furnace, connected were large and small gears, and its surface covered with an abundance of magic patterns and colorful gems, giving it both a steampunk vibe and a strong sense of fantasy.

However, what remained the same was that everything was still coated in a thick layer of dust, and even the damp air was permeated with a strong smell of rust and corrosion.

“Lord, what is this window-like place for?”

Scarlett sniffed and blinked her bright, starry eyes while asking curiously.

“This is where steam is generated, and it’s also a special source of energy like magic power,”

Leo Ray explained the working principle of a steam engine in the simplest and clearest terms.

“As long as you put resources like wood or coal inside, some will be transformed into an energy source similar to magic power through special devices.”

“If I’m not mistaken, this spatial train runs on a combination of steam and magic power.”

Leo Ray glanced around the cockpit and spoke with a light smile, “In the world I was in before this, there was no magic power, and for a very long time, steam was an essential tool for production and development.”

“Amazing,”

Scarlett exclaimed in a moment of clarity, “To be able to transform ordinary wood into something as powerful as magic, the world you came from must be very impressive!”

“That’s right. So, if we can successfully merge the strengths of both worlds, it will inevitably lead to an even stronger human civilization. This has already begun to be implemented and practiced in other continents.”

Leo Ray nodded, admiringly saying, “But what I never expected was that this combination of technology and magic had already been born.”

After a pause, Leo Ray added, “However, from what I can tell, this combination is still at the technological level of two or three hundred years ago in the world I came from, and many places are still quite primitive.”

“For example, the efficiency of this steam engine is very low, causing a lot of resources to be wasted, so there’s still a considerable scope for improvement.”

At this point, Leo Ray couldn’t help but frown.

Through Quinn Serena’s reports, Leo Ray already knew.

Up to now, no materials to manufacture gunpowder had been discovered in this world, and no energy resources related to oil and natural gas had been found either.

Which means that, if traditional methods are used, it’s obviously impossible to apply a more powerful internal combustion engine than a steam engine in this world.

But if these can be combined with magic, perhaps an even stronger special engine can be created.

And surely, the unknown species that have already adopted a hybrid of steam power and magic would make this research even smoother.

“Lord, you really are incredible.”

Scarlett seemed barely able to comprehend, but still nodded vigorously.

“These concepts are too abstruse for you to understand. When I have time, I’ll tell you more about the world I came from.”

Leo Ray casually patted Scarlett’s head and then refocused his attention on the control panel.

After careful observation, Leo Ray further noticed.

The metal chairs and control panels of the two operators could be adjusted in height and distance independently, but their current state wasn’t suitable for a normal person, it was more cramped.

“It appears that the height of this unknown species is much shorter than the average human.”

Leo Ray recalled the staircase and the carriage door he had encountered earlier and nodded thoughtfully.

As for the small town on top, although it was a human-scale town, it could also be a disguise.

With this thought in mind, Leo Ray ordered his subordinates, “Alright, let’s go take a look at the other carriages together.”The subordinates bowed and formed an exploration team again.

After passing through another carriage door dismantled by Taylor, Leo Ray’s expression was full of surprise when he arrived at the train section behind the driver’s compartment.

This place was completely different from the trains and high-speed rails Leo Ray had seen before, not only having significantly larger floor space, but also highly efficient spatial use.

With the exception of the central aisle, there were three levels on both sides, with some resemblance to sleeper cabins. Fixed ladders connected the different levels.

However, the difference was that this wasn’t a resting place, but a working area.

On the left side, there were more than twenty empty workbenches, while the right side housed a library-like or archive-like area filled with elegantly carved bookshelves that were each piled high with parchment rolls.

Regrettably, after a careful inspection, Leo Ray discovered that all the parchment rolls had already rotted and deteriorated. Many turned into mere fragments and the writing and patterns on them were unrecognizable.

“Interesting, let’s keep moving forward,” said Leo Ray as he instructed Taylor to dismantle the next blockading carriage door.

Following that, the group successively passed through magical plant cultivation carriages, animal husbandry carriages, forge and magical workshop carriages, empty equipment carriages and warehouse carriages, pub and restaurant carriages, rest carriages, laboratory carriages, and even a bath carriage, all marvelling at the wonders they saw.

The layout of each and every carriage was meticulously designed, not only extremely functional, but also artistically pleasing. Aside from the fixed rows of deep magic patterns in each carriage,

various intricate decorative patterns were also visible everywhere, their brilliance unable to be masked even by the thick layers of dust.

Furthermore, the long-sealed traces of mottled and vicissitudinous history made each carriage feel like a miniature museum, emitting a combination of historic weightiness and an unknown allure.

Most importantly, this place was full of traces of the combination of technology and magic, completely different from the outside world and giving off an exceptionally unique feel.

“I must say, this unknown race is indeed extraordinary, it’s like stepping into a movie scene with a never-ending train and endless snow…”

Upon exiting the empty bath carriage, surprise filled Leo Ray’s eyes: “It just makes me more and more curious about the true nature of this unknown race.”

“Lord, but there aren’t any corpses here either. Could this be another lost relic?” Ariel Watson asked with a puzzled expression, “Or is it possible that the reason this spatial train appeared here is because of the ‘Dislocated Objects Effect’?”

“It’s definitely not the ‘Dislocated Objects Effect’; otherwise, there wouldn’t be abandoned towns, a Pressure Detection Barrier, and those vigilant Golem Puppets above,” Leo Ray negated one of Ariel Watson’s conjectures and pondered, “As for whether this place is a lost relic, we’ll have our answer once we finish exploring.”

Leo Ray then returned his gaze to the carriage before him.

It was an even larger carriage, with a construction that was even more astonishing.

The carriage was filled with metal gears, gear racks, springs, and connecting shafts of various sizes.

The overlapping layers of gears formed an incredibly intricate and massive mechanism, with only space in the middle left empty for an aisle, making the whole place appear complex yet organized.

At a glance, the machine itself and every meticulous detail shone together in a unique and unusual beauty.

However, upon closer inspection, a different sight was seen.

Under the eroding effect of time, every component of the large machinery had corroded, making it appear mottled and dilapidated.

But the gears interlocked with each other as if engaged in a silent struggle, seeming not to take time into account at all.

Although the entire machine appeared to be no longer operational, Leo Ray could still clearly observe the kinetic energy transfer process in each local area until his vision blurred.

Finally, Leo Ray’s gaze rested on a pile of gears marked with numerical symbols and slowly uttered a few words,

“So, it’s a Difference Engine? This race is just becoming more and more surprising.”
