The four corners of the brown-red base extend the vase-like legs, the upper right is a square coal burning device, the top is embedded with a golden cylinder, and a flywheel of the same color is connected to the connecting rod and the crankshaft.

​​

The exquisite and beautiful model attracted Donald's attention, and Finger was also squatting on the window, tugging at it with his front paws, trying to get a closer look.

​​

"how much is this?"

​​

Inside the shop at the train station, Donald asked with a model of a steam engine.

​​

"You have a good eye. This is a new item in the store, and it only costs 6p."

​​

The young man behind the counter put down the brush in his hand and said with a smile,

​​

"In fact, there are still some promotions in our store. If you spend 1 gold pound, we will give you an additional autographed photo of Mr. Calvert Slona and a mechanical pen."

​​

"Mechanical pen?"

​​

Donald had heard of quill pens and fountain pens, but he had never seen this so-called mechanical pen, so he couldn't help asking.

​​

"That's it, the commemorative model for the exposition released by Enser City this year, you can't usually see it."

​​

Bending down, he took out a small gift box wrapped in a ribbon with a bow from the drawer under the window, opened it and took out the contents.

​​

From the appearance, it is just an ordinary pen. The waiter holds the small ring in the middle and turns it. After a slight clicking sound, the upper part is suddenly cracked, and the surface shrinks to both sides while revealing the engraving underneath—— A small robot.

​​

"It is said that the engravings in the mechanical pens sold in different places are different, but now many people are trying to collect a complete set of commemorative pens."

​​

"Is that so... Xia Ruisi, why don't you buy a model and collect it?"

​​

Donald turned his head to look at Sharis, who was carrying a bag outside the store and was constantly taking out snacks from the inside and asked.

​​

"There are ten minutes before the train departs, don't you want to buy a newspaper?"

​​

Sharis was obviously not very interested in some mechanical creations. She glanced at the things in Donald's hand and said.

​​

After nearly half a month of travel, their current location is only two stops away from Unser City. If there is no accident, they will be able to reach Unser City before dusk arrives. Sharis can't help feeling a little anxious.

​​

There is only one week left until the start of the Unther exposition.

​​

She shrugged noncommittally, put down a gold pound on the window, took the model and the mechanical pen away, picked up Finger and walked out the door under the smile of thanks from the waiter.

​​

beep~~~

​​

The whistle of the steam train came at this moment, and Donald's eyes drifted towards the direction of the platform. Compared with the city he passed by half a month ago, the environment in front of him has changed greatly.

​​

As the industrial center of the entire Lane Empire, Unther City has an impact on the surrounding areas that is not even weaker than those of the industrial cities that the empire has focused on.

​​

Take the train station in front of you as an example.

​​

The merchandise store behind Donald sells mechanical models and some small items that are very rare in other areas. The exterior decoration is no longer the usual wooden structure in the past. It can be mounted on the outside at any time. Lights that switch on and off and a mechanical panel that flips through a button to scroll through the types and prices of goods is enough to show that in these regions, the mechanical technology brought about by the Industrial Revolution is in a booming period.

​​

What really caught Donald's attention were the little mechanical beasts that appeared beside some well-dressed men and women, such as a golden-colored mechanical rabbit in the arms of a lady not far away.

​​

It is neither a strange thing nor some kind of offensive armed machine.

​​

But that's why it caught Donald's attention.

​​

As we all know, a large part of the development of science and technology stems from the needs of human struggle. This is an irrefutable fact. However, to see the level of industrial development of a city, it is necessary to see the popularity of these technologies among the people. to judge.

​​

In Renas, can Donald make this kind of mechanical rabbit?

​​

Of course, there is no doubt that it can not only be built, but also very easy to do. As long as he wants, Victor's team can make it for him in one night.

​​

But the fact is that there is no such mechanical rabbit on the market at all.

​​

The reason is very simple, Victor and his team are able to create the mechanical rabbit relying on Donald, that is, the private laboratory owned by the mayor of Serveit Talos, and today's Renas still does not have a mature and sophisticated industry. The production line and the workers in this area.

​​

Unless the scientists and students under Victor are asked to stop doing research, mass production is impossible.

​​

However, in this city railway station, which is still some distance away from Unther City, Donald saw quite a few mechanical pets along the way. Mechanical rabbits are a relatively common type.

​​

Of course, this does not rule out the possibility that since the Enser Exposition is about to start, people from all over the world will come here, but on the other hand, Donald did not see any surprise or surprise from the ordinary people around him, which proves that They are used to this kind of scene.

​​

"I started to wonder what kind of city Unther City is."

​​

Standing in front of the newsstand on the side of the road, Donald's fingers slid between the newspapers, not just today, he plans to buy the newspapers of the last month!

​​

"Industrial revolution, technological change, and all these strangely dressed things... Inventors, what a bunch of guys who don't know what to fear."

​​

Since leaving the Rock Castle, Charis seems to have returned to her original character when she was in Renas, with less grace and more cheerfulness and liveliness.

​​

Donald said nothing on the surface, but he was somewhat happy in his heart.

​​

After all, traveling with a lady who always wears a calm and indifferent mask on her face is not as comfortable as traveling with a lively and cheerful girl.

​​

The only problem is that Sharis in this state has more hobbies than before.

​​

It's like the bag of sweets in his hand, and his uncontrollable nagging or broken mouth.

​​

Like most religious people, she doesn't like the Industrial Revolution. She doesn't mean to deny those highly practical technologies. She just thinks that many people only see interests, reverence for gods and inner peace in the eyes of the Industrial Revolution. Kindness is no longer pure.

​​

"The times have changed, and it is impossible for human beings to stay in a primitive state forever. Progress and even evolution are inevitable development."

​​

Putting most of the newspapers into the space ring~lightnovelpub.net~leaving only a recent daily newspaper, Donald walked to a nearby waiting bench and took a seat.

​​

"The inevitable development...is it premised on abandoning the gods?"

​​

When it comes to topics about gods, Sharis always seems very aggressive. Donald doesn't want to have a dispute with her on this kind of thing. He flips through the newspaper and thinks about how to change the subject.

​​

Soon he thought of a good topic.

​​

"Arriving in Unse soon, I think it's time to talk about what we are going to do this time, our goals are the same, and my identity may be able to provide a lot in the non-religious area of ​​Unse City. convenient."

​​

The alliance outside the rock castle took the cooperation between the two to another level, and because of this, Donald bluntly asked his own question,

​​

"I hope that before arriving in Unser, I can have a detailed understanding of what will happen in Unser City, and at least allow me to start thinking about my next move."

​​

"I don't actually know much information. In fact, I heard it from others... I mean the news passed by our circles."

​​

Speaking of Ense, Charis' expression was a little hesitant, she frowned and thought for a while before continuing,

​​

"God-making plan!"
