Chapter 938: Chapter 335 Approaching (Combined Chapter) _4

“Other phrasing has also changed, certain action abilities seem to be stronger than simple ones.”

“Interesting.” Rein nodded.

Immediately, Rein performed an activation technique on the Hardened Essence Gold Battle Puppet and issued some simple commands.

He noticed that the spiritual power consumption of the activation technique at level 2 increased, while the agility of the Hardened Essence Gold Battle Puppet also improved significantly.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock outside the training room.

“Knock, knock, knock!”

“Please come in.”

The one who entered was Olena, the Deputy Director of the Task Hall.

After she smiled and nodded in greeting to Neoro and the others, she approached Rein and said:

“Lord Rein, the Federation Mission is about to arrive, the Administrative Hall has notified you that you can depart.”

“So soon? Alright, Lady Olena, let’s head there now.”

…

Inside the carriage.

“By the way, Lord Rein, there’s one more thing: the Duke of Minter has proposed to Admiral Edward that he wishes to hire you as Minter’s chief safety consultant.” Olena

“Admiral Edward’s intention is that you should decide for yourself.”

Chief safety consultant?

Rein nodded, his expression thoughtful.

He had previously served as a safety consultant for the Trade District, so he naturally knew that the role of a consultant was essentially a sinecure.

The main responsibility was to handle special incidents or emergencies within the city when a request for aid was received from the Administrative Hall.

But in reality, Rein’s own family lived in Minter, and he had been involved in almost every attack incident immediately.

So, whether or not he took on the role, it made little difference to Rein personally.

Additionally, as a gesture of gratitude for the Duke of Minter’s previous gift of a mansion, Rein pondered and nodded, saying:

“Since that’s the case, I accept.”

…

Since Rein’s new residence was in the Noble District, it only took ten minutes for the carriage to reach the airship docking platform.

At this time, the square at the airship platform was already bustling with people, a red carpet laid out on the ground, and both sides of the crowd were lined with a guard of honor and a military band.

The Duke of Minter and Admiral Edward were standing at the forefront of the welcoming crowd, surrounding another elderly man in splendid attire.

“This is Duke Victor from the Imperial City, the official sent from the Imperial City to greet the Eagle Federation Mission.” Olena whispered to Rein on the side.

Rein nodded.

He didn’t push his way to the front but instead stood on the sidelines of the crowd.

He didn’t particularly like these welcoming and farewell ceremonies, but he was quite curious about what differences there would be between the people from the Federation and those from the Empire.

“Look, isn’t it that?”

A middle-aged nobleman pointed to a certain spot in the sky, seemingly extremely startled.

This inevitably caused the eyebrows of several nobles nearby to furrow slightly, as such loud exclamations were considered very rude among the nobility.

However, when everyone looked up, they couldn’t help but show expressions of astonishment.

Rein also followed their gaze and couldn’t help but feel a bit amazed himself.

A massive airship was flying toward them from the distant horizon, and the escorting Griffin Knights alongside it were almost as small as flies buzzing around a cake in comparison.

Rein had never seen such a large airship; by comparison, it was about ten times the size of the Imperial Military Airship he had previously ridden.

As the airship gradually approached, a buzzing vibration sound was transmitted from afar to nearby.

“What is this sound? Seems like it’s coming from the airship.” a noble asked in confusion.

“I don’t know, never heard such a noise, seems quite rhythmic.” another noble shook his head and said.

…

Rein raised an eyebrow.

He was very familiar with this vibration sound, on the busy streets of his previous life, the cars speeding like the wind, the engine’s low humming sounded much better than this.

Clearly, on the airship, there should be a more primitive power device.

“Could it be a steam engine?”

Rein’s heart skipped a beat, and he couldn’t help but speculate.

As the airship neared Minter, the pressure resembling a small mountain made many waiting nobles’ expressions change.

“The Eagle Federation split from our Empire hundreds of years ago, has it developed to such an extent now?” a noble exclaimed.

“This airship is just too enormous, it’s more than three times bigger than the largest cargo airship I’ve seen in the Empire.” another noble was equally shocked by the size of the Federation airship.

….

But Rein understood more.

The huge gas balloon was like a bulging ellipsoid cloud, its surface grayish-white, likely made from some exceptionally tough and durable special fabric.

Suspended beneath was a massive ship-shaped cabin, exhibiting a brass-colored metallic texture.

With Rein’s exceptional eyesight, he could clearly see the dense rivets above, covering large brass plates on the surface of the cabin.

In terms of the cabin surface’s robustness and craftsmanship alone, it has already surpassed the Empire by one level.

Moreover, at the rear of the cabin, there were two enormous bronze exhaust pipes, spewing a large amount of white steam.

Simultaneously, there was a huge propeller at the tail, larger than the kind used on ships.

The buzzing sound that had just been heard was the noise emitted by the propulsion device turning it.

“Sure enough, it’s a steam power device!” Rein thought to himself.

At this moment, the elderly man dressed in splendid clothing beside the Duke of Minter snorted and said:

“These Federation people, audacious enough to attempt to overcome Giant Dragons and Divine Spirits through researching Ancient Goblin Empire technology.”

“If it weren’t for the Imperial Dragon Knights being preoccupied, how could they be showing off like this.”

Rein glanced at the old man and thought to himself, the Imperial Dragon Knights are indeed strong, but the significance of steam power is likely unclear to most people.

And he naturally knew that steam power was regarded as the hallmark of the ‘First Industrial Revolution’ in his previous life.

…

As the giant airship slowly docked, the band began to play music.

Just as the welcoming ceremony was about to commence, suddenly, Stanley, with a serious expression, quickly walked in and whispered a few words in Admiral Edward’s ear.

Meanwhile, a trusted aide quickly reported to the Duke of Minter!

Immediately, both their expressions changed uniformly!
