The steam train raced across the vast plains, cutting through mountains and never stopping except at stations.

Though not fast, the train traveled day and night, which was much better than using a carriage.

And it carried a lot of passengers and cargo.

“Sir, would you like some water?” In the VIP train compartment, a young servant softly asked the master, who was hunched over his desk working on a manuscript.

The master looked up, and it was none other than Nicholas, the most famous playwright from the Dreamshadow Flame Kingdom, who nodded slightly, indicating the servant to pour a cup of hot water.

Then he turned his head to look out the window.

On the empty plains, large herds of deer grazed on the grass, an area still undeveloped, as the Warm Enclave had been established for less than a year.

Toot toot.

A tar road ran alongside the rail, with several steam cars maintaining the same speed as the train. However, the steam cars quickly turned off at a junction into a mining site.

Several other steam cars, loaded with goods, turned onto the tar road from the branch, but at a much slower pace.

“Sir, this is the Nickel Silver Mine. It hasn’t been half a year since the Silver Mountain Province was opened, and a nickel silver mine was found,” another older servant whispered, “People say that the dragons favor the Fluorescent Fungi Family.”

Since Russell had changed his noble surname, it meant he had started a new Dragonblood Family—the Amber Dreamscape Dragonblood Family.

So, the Fluorescent Fungi Family referred to Baron Roman and Roland.

“It’s not the dragons that favor the Fluorescent Fungi Family, but His Majesty,” Nicholas said with a smile.

Others might think Roland just stumbled upon a Nickelsilver Dragon in the Snowfield.

But as Russell’s official playwright, how could Nicholas not know that the Nickelsilver Dragon was a gift from Russell to Roland?

It was just that Roland had no particular merits; hence, he was not directly rewarded with a Bipedal Flying Dragon. It was simply an excuse that Roland found the dragon in the Snowfields.

At this moment.

The train began to slow down, completely stabilizing after passing through a station. The conductor, holding a megaphone and walking down the aisle, shouted, “Silver Mountain Station, anyone getting off, please hurry up, and anyone wanting some fresh air, step out quickly. We will be departing again in fifteen minutes!”

“Sir, would you like to get off for some air?” the servant asked.

“No need, just open the window; I’ll smoke a cigar,” Nicholas replied. The servant immediately opened the window of the VIP compartment and took out a Rain Dragon Cigar from the cigar box, lighting it for Nicholas.

Fifteen minutes later, the train slowly started and left Silver Mountain Station.

Leaving Silver Mountain Province, it wasn’t long before they reached Youguang Province, still part of the Fluorescent Fungi Family’s domain.

Nicholas’s destination was further south in Youguang Province, at the Wuyao Snake Manor.

This was where Russell started, and it had now become the domain of Lord Kendall. Nicholas planned to retrace Russell’s steps, to feel the legendary path of the Ancient Giant Dragon Knight of the Dragon Sleep Continent.

Although the Su Luo series had ended and Russell did not allow further fabrication,

Nicholas still wanted to create a true documentary biography, recording every detail of Russell’s legendary journey.

“The final stop of this train, Youguang Town Station, we’ve arrived. Please ensure all passengers collect your luggage and disembark in an orderly fashion!” the conductor again shouted through the megaphone in the corridor, “No pushing, ensure you have all your belongings!”

Nicholas used the VIP exit, avoiding the crowded rush, and quickly left the train station.

“Sir,” the two servants, one older and one younger, caught up.

Two Great Knights followed behind, acting as servants to Nicholas — Nicholas had already acquired the title of a scholarly man of letters and had entered the ranks of nobility, thus he was entitled to employ knights as his own servants.

“Master, it’s getting dark, do we need to visit Fluorescent Castle?” the old servant asked.

“No, let’s stay the night in Yuanguang Town; tomorrow we will head directly to Wuyao Snake Manor,” Nicholas instructed.

Walking through Yuanguang Town, Nicholas had many reflections, “The last time I came to Yuanguang Town, it wasn’t this prosperous. In just over a year, it has changed so much.”

“The number of factories has increased, especially the ceramic and enamel factories. Their products are now sold nationwide, and even to Scorching Torrent Kingdom,” the young servant said, “Ceramic products are now the latest trend among the nobility.”

“Years ago, the Fluorescent Fungi Family was already famous for their ceramic goods, but indeed, in these last few years, the trend has become even more prevalent,” Nicholas reflected.

He knew that all of this was brought about by King Russell.

It wasn’t just that Russell had introduced the nobility to the fashion of ceramics, it was also Russell’s inventions that made ceramics increasingly popular — enamel products were selling well among the common folk, while fine ceramics had become luxury items.

Yuanguang Town was quickly becoming the “Porcelain Capital” of the Dragon Sleep Continent.

After spending a night in Yuanguang Town, early the next morning, Nicholas set out for Wuyao Snake Manor.

As soon as he stepped out of the inn, he saw a crowd on the street looking up into the sky.

“What’s going on?” Nicholas asked curiously and then looked up to the sky. The sky was clear today, the sun rose from the east and spread its sunlight evenly across the buildings of the town.

Nicholas followed the crowd’s gaze to the western sky and instantly saw a bright white star above the horizon.

“What star is that?”

The people on the street looking up at the sky were also discussing it, but no one knew where this star had come from.

There had been instances in the past where stars remained visible at dawn, but never before had there been a star visible in the sky after the sun had risen during daylight.

Thus, Nicholas’s curiosity was piqued, “I remember there’s an observatory at Sharp Knife Mountain, right?”

“It seems so, Master.”

“Let’s go; we’ll hire a steam carriage and head to Sharp Knife Mountain Observatory,” Nicholas said and quickly hired a steam carriage to head toward the observatory.

He was a learned man of letters and a well-known dramatist, so he quickly received an audience with the current director of the observatory. The former Director Sullivan had been transferred to the national observatory, and the current director was his student.

“Lord Nicholas, the star you are asking about is the Frost Star, which is invading our Dragon Sleep Continent,” the director sighed.

“Frost Star?” Nicholas exclaimed.

“Yes, that is the Frost Star. You can observe it through the astronomical telescope; it’s a unique fragmented planet. It has docked in the orbit of Dragon Star, and soon, we’ll be able to see it every day and more distinctly.”

“Is it going to hit our Dragon Star?”

“From the discussions at the astronomical conference, it won’t collide, but another miraculous phenomenon will occur, an overlapping of celestial tracks.”

“Overlapping of celestial tracks?”

“It’s when two planets overlap each other, but due to some dimensional reasons, they don’t interfere with each other. However, Frost Snow Giants are able to directly invade Dragon Star from Frost Star.”

“Is that dangerous?”

“It’s quite dangerous, but don’t worry, we have His Majesty’s protection,” the director said confidently, “The Amber Council has already been established, and human nations are united as a community of common destiny. If Frost Star does not invade, fine, but if they dare, we humans might even counterattack Frost Star!”

The battle at Warm Jade Duchy had given humanity boundless confidence.

The existence of Russell and the Dreamscape Ancient Dragon was the foundation of humanity’s confidence in winning this eternal war against the dragon demons.

Nicholas smiled knowingly, “I think so too; His Majesty will protect us.”
