The train headed for distant lands, billowing smoke, offering an unobstructed view of the vast landscape, wide fields and mountain villages, a scene of harmony.
On the outskirts, numerous workshops puffing out thick smoke appeared, not far from the city walls, grand in scale, tightly guarded, surrounded by tall wire fences.
Beyond the railway barriers, there were also many clad in armor, keeping watch over the railway.
There were demonic beasts in the wilds, ferocious in nature, brutal in temperament, immensely strong and easily causing harm to humans.
Of course, demonic beasts did not appear all the time, as they too needed to survive and reproduce.
Usually dwelling in remote and deep forests, they quickly became the overlord of any territory they entered, thereafter ruling the area, flourishing until the environment reached its carrying capacity, and then they would bring calamity to the human realm.
