The train moved forward in the wind and snow, moving forward in an indomitable and unstoppable way.

The gray steel car body galloped like a long dragon through the dim snowfield. The air waves brought by the gallop broke through the flying snowflakes in the sky, smashing them and flying them away, allowing the track submerged in the snow to appear again.

The connecting rod rotates, the black and red wheels rub against the rails, and the heat wave emitted by the car body melts the snow around it, like an intruded relic in this silent snowfield, bringing roaring and scalding power.

"Beep--" The surging sound of the whistle is accompanied by the steam spurting out, spreading across the wasteland and spreading into the distance.

In the train, the crew gradually saw the majestic outline blurred by snowflakes in the distance through the gray window glass. It was the giant city Kandra in the north. The city walls and fortresses hundreds of meters high gave people a strong sense of oppression. However, knowing that this was the crystallization of the hard work of countless predecessors gave rise to a sense of pride.

After several days of journey and various events, the train finally arrived at its final destination.

Countless eyes on the giant city and towers gathered together, looking at the train that arrived as scheduled before the last moment, and the members on the car also looked up at the outline of the endless city wall that was getting closer and closer, and the towering giant door that slowly opened.

After passing the last ten kilometers, the train roared into the interior of "Kandra". It did not stop and drove straight into the core area of the giant city. The tracks and pedestrians along the way had long been cleared. The soldiers and Mages stationed here stood in the wind and snow watching this moment.

Finally, with a harsh friction sound, the train came to a slow stop, and then the carriages were quickly opened. The soldiers on the train crew and the responding personnel immediately carefully removed the boxes of Blazing Sun Essence Crystal" from the carriage, and then transported them to the huge furnace that was gradually turning not far away.

On the inner wall of the huge oven, which is about three hundred meters high, each slot is controlled by the Mages to suck in the opened Blazing Sun Essence Crystal and then insert it stably. In addition to this largest furnace, there are six smaller furnaces distributed around it.

Everything is going on nervously and orderly. As the "Blazing Sun Essence Crystal" is loaded, the orange-red transparent crystal emits a faint light and gradually heats up. Even if it has not started yet, the temperature here can already Distortion the air and continues to rise.

Blazing Sun Essence Crystal" is Fire Seed" with the power of Blazing Sun and Aspect Power. They have strict restrictions on storage. If they exceed a critical point, they will overlap each other. Blazing Sun Under the influence of "Aspect Power, it gradually heats up and activates the energy hidden inside. When transported by train, it must be separated by 1-2 carriages for storage, and cannot be piled together. The intervening carriages must exist, which also results in the train being unable to abandon the useless parts and move forward completely lightly.

If you use space props to store, there are certain restrictions, because Blazing Sun Essence Crystal" is a fourth-level Fire Seed". Once its quantity is accumulated, the huge Blazing Sun" The power of Aspect Power will destroy the stable state of the internal structure of the space prop. In the end, either the potential Aspect Power power will activate and explode, or the entire space prop will be lost in the turbulent flow of space debris and lost forever.

If small space props are compared to a shelf made of wood, then Blazing Sun Essence Crystal" is like a heavy metal block. Once the number reaches a certain level, it will crush the entire shelf (small space).

This is also the reason why some high-level treasures are difficult to store in space prop reserves, unless the space used for storage itself is extremely powerful, such as the "treasure space" in the abdomen of high-level Dragons, which is where Dragons use to store their cherished treasures. With the blessing of "Dragon Eye" power, it can maintain its stability and not be easily destroyed.

This is also the reason why "War of Dragon Hunting" at the time of Eighth Era is because there are many people and forces who covet Dragon's treasures. As long as they are killed, the treasure space in the body will shatter and the treasures inside will overflow.

Blazing Sun Essence Crystal entered the loading stage, and the garrison personnel of Kandra gradually got into position and began to start up the entire furnace. At this time, the personnel of the Ninth Train group were finally relieved, and they could have a good rest.

Sylutia was wearing a felt shawl, and together with the crew, led by Master Ge Zhen, they came to the hall Hall not far from the furnace. There were many seats here, as well as hot water and simple food supplies, so that they could sit and rest.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone." After Master Ge Zhen brought everyone here, he turned around and spoke, his eyes softened a lot, not as harsh as on the previous train.

Things kept happening along the way, and his nerves were always tense, and it was only now that he could relax a little.

Soon, a relatively young-looking master brought people over. After seeing Master Ge Zhen, he opened his hand to welcome him. The two simply hugged each other, each with unspeakable emotions.

"Sorry, I just came to greet you. There are really too many things to deal with." The other party simply explained. Then he turned to the core members of the crew and introduced himself.

"Hello everyone, my name is Anvis. I am a student of Sage Kiran. I am currently one of the six principals responsible for Kandra. I have had many communications with Master Ge Zhen."

He looks relatively young, probably only in his forties. He wears a robe that is mainly white and decorated with gold. His strength is comparable to that of Master Ge Zhen. He is a master from the "Sun Furnace" school, ranked 11th.

As for the teacher he talks about, he is the current supreme leader of Kandra and one of the 22 sages of the Mage Alliance, the White Sage "Kiran."

After learning about this person's identity, the people present bowed politely. After all, the person's identity is the highest existence in Candela except for the sage. It is not easy to come to greet them at this level.

After a brief exchange, Anvis learned about the big and small things that happened during the train journey. He couldn't help but lament the difficulty of this journey, and also told everyone about the conditions of trains on other routes.

"Originally, we had placed great hopes on the Western Line. Unfortunately, a serious accident occurred. All three trains were lost on the road and the whole army was wiped out."

"Although First Train on the eastern route arrived normally, something happened to Second Train behind it, causing the entire line to be delayed and unable to arrive on time."

"If you hadn't arrived at the last moment, I'm afraid the entire North Wind Defense Line would have been in a huge crisis." He looked at everyone with emotion, especially lingering on the girl covered in felt for a while.

Although I was interested in this dark-haired young girl, now was not the time to chat. After a brief exchange, someone came over to notify me.

"Master Anvis, the furnace is ready." Hearing the report, he stood up immediately.

"I have to leave first. When everything stabilizes later, I will have a grand celebration dinner for you all. Please forgive me for the alienation at this moment." After saying that, he led a group of people and walked quickly to the location of the furnace.

At this time, Sylutia and others also heard a huge buzz coming from that direction, and the sound caused the entire earth to tremble slightly, as if a sleeping prehistoric beast was slowly waking up at this moment.

On North Wind Defense Line, the golden-red light flow centered on "Kandra" and extended to the defense lines of the city walls on both wings. As the energy merged, the silent giant fans slowly began to rotate, and the golden markings engraved on them also lit up one by one. When viewed from a high altitude, they looked like hot and orange imprinted rings.
