The Astral Realm Train Begins Service
The year is 110004 in the Angel Empire Calendar.
Three years.
Raphael completed the initial mobilization, recruiting over ten million Legendary Mage from the myriad Paradise Mountain World to serve as "workers" for the first section of the Astral Realm Railway.
He plans to start building the first section of the Astral Realm Railway from the World Tree, connecting it to the nearest provincial star system, the Myriad Plum Groves Star Domain.
This is a star system governed by a Ten-Winged Throne Angel, with allies on both sides, making it a perfect testing ground for the first phase of the railway.
To facilitate the project, the World Tree Silvanus also kindly extended a branch of itself thousands of miles beyond the radiance of Paradise Mountain.
Raphael planned to build a railway city at the end of this branch, as the beginning of the World Railway.
and.
His planned central hub for the Astral Realm Railway is also located in this area, bathed in the glow of Paradise Mountain.
In the future, a super world will emerge here, formed by the fusion of ten thousand great worlds. Dumanlin those previous super worlds, which had been managed by various Rule Sovereign for hundreds of millions of years, would pale in comparison to this super world.
In order to find these suitable worlds, he has issued orders in the name of the Vice-Sovereign of the Heavenly Kingdom to tens of thousands of star provinces to search for suitable worlds.
Three years have passed.
All the worlds that meet the requirements have been found, and Raphael has arranged for personnel to travel to each of these provincial star systems to move these worlds back.
To achieve the fastest possible speed, almost the entire Angel Legion under his command was mobilized, carrying the numerous Sky City built over the years, to various provincial star systems to lay out super space-time teleportation arrays and bring these worlds back bit by bit.
The year is 110100 in the Angel Empire Calendar.
The first century of Raphael's rule.
The first Astral Realm Railway connecting Paradise Mountain and the Myriad Plum Groves World was completed.
This long railway passes through hundreds of worlds chosen by Raphael as "railway stations," as well as thousands of Sky City that serve as temporary stops, finally arriving at the world of Myriad Plum Groves, the capital of the Myriad Plum Groves Province.
The completion of this railway signified that Raphael's plan was not a pipe dream, but a truly achievable great undertaking, and more Transcendent Being joined this grand project.
and.
Many problems were encountered during the construction of the first railway, but they were all resolved.
When the next Astral Realm Railway is built, it will be much simpler and faster.
but.
The first Astral Realm Train was still under design and construction. All the unexpected events encountered during the construction of the railway would cause the Astral Realm Train's builders to change the plans to meet the latest practical requirements. This is why the Astral Realm Train was not opened to traffic immediately after the first railway was completed.
The year is 110110 in the Angel Empire Calendar.
Ten years after the completion of the first World Tree - the Myriad Plum Groves Astral Realm Railway.
The first Astral Realm Train was finally completed.
This was a colossal object hundreds of meters high, hundreds of meters wide, and 50,000 miles long, capable of holding billions of living beings—equivalent to the total population of what was once an Blue Star.
Amidst the expectant gazes of everyone.
Raphael, accompanied by Angel and Spirit Officer, embarked on this first Astral Realm journey.
Then.
This Astral Realm Train, stretching 50,000 miles, departed from the World Tree World Tree, after a year, arrived in the Myriad Plum Groves Star Domain.
The Astral Realm Train project was a success!
Countless people began to hope that the Astral Realm Train would be able to reach their home world.
This time.
Not only did countless Legendary Transcendent Being from the Myriad Plum Groves World and World Tree actively request to join this great project, Druid throughout the entire Astral Realm, countless Legendary Mage, Alchemy, Legendary, Warlock, Legendary deities related to architecture and Element from all realms joined the ranks of those building the Astral Realm Railway.
Meanwhile, Raphael's specially established Astral Realm Train manufacturing department, having gained experience from the first Astral Realm Train, began rapidly producing the second, third, and so Astral Realm Train.
Faced with certain special star systems and unique creatures, they also began designing other types of Astral Realm Train.
For example, the Ocean Express, the Purgatory Express, the Darkness Express, the Mist Express, the Lava Express, and so on.
The year is 111000 in the Angel Empire Calendar.
The first millennium of Raphael's rule has passed.
Throughout the entire Astral Realm, over three thousand provinces and star systems, along with the World Tree under the radiant light of Paradise Mountain, have been connected by the Astral Realm Railway. Three hundred thousand Astral Realm Train emit long whistles in the deep space of the Astral Realm, dispelling celestial monsters and traveling between the various realms.
Looking down from above the Astral Realm.
You can see long trains, shimmering with various colors, traveling back and forth in a huge network along thin blue lines.
The Astral Realm Train network is beginning to take shape.
The year is 112000 in the Angel Empire Calendar.
Upper airspace of the World Tree.
Below that branch of the World Tree that Silvanus deliberately extended very long.
Ten thousand super railway hub worlds formed by the fusion of vast worlds were completed, a massive Astral Realm Train station world emerged, and the function of a railway hub for billions of worlds was realized.
Here, tickets can be purchased at all the stations along the completed provincial-level star system railway, allowing the beings of the World Tree to truly travel from their own world to all other worlds.
Over these two thousand years.
Raphael not only connected nearly eight thousand provincial star systems, but also incorporated the entire upper and middle worlds under the World Tree into the Astral Realm Train network.
Now, under the radiant light of Paradise Mountain, young people residing in the myriad worlds of the World Tree, as long as they possess World Tree residency and have a certain level of Transcendent strength, can easily travel to the billions of worlds in the Astral Realm.
Just as this grand Astral Realm project was unfolding in full swing...
The first level of the Abyss.
On the Demon Throne.
Lucifer lay languidly on his wide Throne, eating Abyss fruits fed to him by a beautiful Fallen Angel maid.
She had already spent two millennia of Raphael's reign in boredom.
