The horses were gone, so they could only travel on foot.
In 1880, New York's steam-powered elevated trains covered all of Manhattan, but the first vehicle that didn't require horses wouldn't arrive until 1886.
Li Qianxia and Ismei from the Sorcerer Academy, being female, were specially allowed to ride in the horse carriage.
The sun had already completely broken free from the Earth's obstruction, brazenly grilling everything. Seated in the carriage, Li Qianxia's only worry was that she might not be able to detect enemies immediately.
Having heard her words, Ismei said, "The demons that can roam under such a scorching sun really don't need to be resisted, for you cannot resist them."
"Which ones specifically?" Yang Qinglan sat at the head of the carriage.
One older and one younger nun sat on the right side, Li Qianxia and Ismei on the left—Li Qianxia closer to Yang Qinglan, facing the older nun.
