Chapter 2823 Resonance (Part 1)

"It also works on the floor." Another push and the people inside the wagon had the impression of walking on air.

"What a wonderful idea!" Solus said. "Elysia and Valeron are going to love looking at the aquatic fauna while we travel."

"Actually, it's a safety measure to check for enemies from below in case of an attack but that works too." Lith nodded. "At the speed this thing moves, however, I doubt we are going to see much."

"Just one question. How are they going to bring this titan out of Valeron?" Kamila asked.

"You'll see." Orion said with a huge grin on his face. "Feel free to join us for lunch. But first…"

He took out of his pocket several vials containing a dense yellow liquid. Two of them were bigger and white in color.

"This is the cure for Jiera's plague. I know you guys are Awakened, but I don't want to take unnecessary risks." He opened the stopper and gulped one.

"Are you sure? This looks like milk." Lith said while shaking the white-colored potion.

"Because part of it is milk." Orion replied. "It should make it easier to administer to the babies. See you later."

Kelia's quarters, a few wagons away.

The members of the White Sword Corps and the Red Sun were all stationed inside a single car. Those like Lith's and Orion's were reserved for VIPs in order to avoid people spying on them and giving them privacy.

Orion was in possession of the only copy of the blueprints of both the mechanical and magical components of the Wayfinder in case it needed repairs. It was the reason he was entitled to private quarters since dimensional amulets didn't work.

Lith, instead, was known to have many secrets that he was unwilling to share and Elysia needed extra security. The details of the day of the Black Sun were unclear to most people but no one doubted that those events would repeat themselves if a madman attacked the child.

Kelia and the others were not only considered regular passengers but since the wagons had been split evenly between the members of the expedition, the Empire needed to optimize the space in each car in order to bring as many people as possible.

"This is crap!" Kelia said, looking around.

Regular wagons were split into five compartments on either side. Four of them contained two sofas, each long enough to accommodate three people while leaving a narrow corridor between them.

With a click of a button, the sofas would turn into bunk beds, giving their occupants their own place where to sleep but little privacy or space. The fifth compartment was occupied by a bathroom with just a toilet and a sink that the passengers of the wagon had to share.

"This is actually nice." Harun, a female soldier in her mid-twenties said. "Compared to my boot camp, this is a luxury resort. The mattress is soft, the space is Hushed against snoring, and the bathroom has tap water and a flush system.

"Imagine having an outhouse and having to deal with the smell of piss and shit the whole day." She chuckled, the laugh highlighting her white teeth and kind voice.
