God of Technology: Creating the Internet in Another World-Chapter 510: The Train’s Starting!

Although the ultra-high-speed rail trains were very fast, even riding the full route didn't actually take that long, but riding business class, if you wanted, you could still get a free meal.

Besides that, there were some complimentary drinks and snacks.

Viscount Roster explained with a smile, "But for you all, I think the most important thing is that regular folks wouldn't be willing to buy tickets like these."

"In other words, the customers who can enter business class all have pretty decent status—maybe nobles, maybe big merchants, or maybe some kind of supernatural being, or perhaps someone with professional technical skills."

"No matter which identity, everyone actually has a basis for cooperation."

"I think you all understand what I'm trying to say."

The people present weren't idiots. They immediately understood. From a certain angle, business class was actually a pretty good social venue.

Although it couldn't reach the level of noble gatherings, couldn't filter out a bunch of big nobles, couldn't select people from one specific circle.

But those who could come here probably weren't ordinary people.

Perhaps they could spark some different chemistry.

A noble with power and a big merchant with business opportunities could definitely achieve a win-win situation.

Or meeting a technically skilled professional and recruiting them to work for you—that'd also be a great experience.

"Your keen perception in this area truly amazes and impresses us. I'm sure these cabins will be very popular."

A noble couldn't help but exclaim.

Actually, even without thinking about these things, just thinking that this was different from the back was enough to satisfy many nobles' needs.

Nobles didn't like using the same things as commoners.

Having a cabin like this, no matter what angle you looked at it from, was very important.

Amid everyone's admiration, a noble suddenly said, "If there could be an entertainment cabin where everyone could play games together, I think that'd be even better."

"You could charge a very substantial fee. I believe many nobles would be happy to pay, since this journey actually takes quite a bit of time."

As soon as he said this, quite a few people agreed.

Who knew if it was because they were also shareholders in Railway General Company so they were thinking about how to make profit, or because from their own perspective, if they were making a several-hour journey, they'd want something like this.

"I'll consider it in the future, once our capacity reaches a certain level and we can satisfy all passengers and freight transport."

Viscount Roster said politely, "We could even specially run noble-only trains providing all kinds of services. That wouldn't be a problem at all."

Hearing Viscount Roster's words, the atmosphere on site immediately got even better.

If an entire train could be all nobles, providing all kinds of services and entertainment facilities, even if it cost several times, even dozens of times more, there'd be no problem at all.

Just then, the ultra-high-speed rail train officially started.

Before this, such trains only existed in a small section in the Southern territories. Most people actually hadn't experienced them, since traveling wasn't easy in this era.

When they felt the ultra-high-speed rail train beginning to gradually accelerate, excitement showed on everyone's faces.

Especially looking through the windows and seeing the scenery outside starting to rush backward rapidly—that feeling was indescribable.

Many people had never experienced such speed in their entire lives.

What surprised them even more was that on this train, they felt unusually stable, without the slightest bit of turbulence. If they didn't look outside through the windows, they'd even think they were just staying in place, not moving at all.

"This really is amazing. It's exactly like the legends said—riding this vehicle, you can't feel yourself moving at all. You just wait quietly and you'll appear at the next location."

"I think there must be some magic arrays providing support. Otherwise, it'd be hard to reach this level."

"Truly amazing! Look at the speed of those things outside. We must be going at some pretty incredible speed now."

While these nobles were marveling, passengers in other cars mostly had similar expressions.

Just eight minutes later, the train began to gradually slow down.

Under everyone's puzzled gazes, a voice came: "The train is now arriving at City of Epic. Passengers getting off, please organize your luggage and prepare to disembark at the door."

"The train is now arriving at City of Epic. Passengers getting off, please organize your luggage and prepare to disembark at the door."

The announcement repeated twice. Everyone's faces showed stunned expressions.

My God!

We're already at City of Epic?

That's way too fast!

Normally, driving a carriage from City of Gold to City of Epic took at least two hours. If you had bad luck, it might take three hours to arrive.

How many minutes had it been?

Before they could react, the train had already stopped smoothly at a station.

About three minutes later, the train departed again.

Everything was exactly as they'd seen on the Magic Net's ticketing feature.

The schedule matched perfectly.

Not a second's delay.

"Everything about this train seems to be within the plan."

"This is really amazing. This level of precision surprises me."

"If every operation, including after the number of trains increases in the future, can still maintain this accuracy, I think for everyone, this will become an even more perfect method of travel."

"And all kinds of bad weather—I wonder if they'll have any effect? If they don't, that'd be truly amazing."

"Being able to arrive at every place on time according to plan—for people like us, that's more important than anything!"

This level of precision appeared again and again. The exclamations in the train hardly stopped.

Everything seemed to exceed their imagination.

Especially passing through tunnels again and again, crossing bridges, even going through rain zones, swamp areas, spanning lakes—each time left them amazed.

Many people were expressing their feelings about this journey on the Magic Net.

Marveling at the power of the ultra-high-speed rail system.

But what surprised them was that when they opened their Magic Nets, they found that the people who should have been discussing the ultra-high-speed rail system had now completely shifted their attention to those two new features.

After this period of shock and confusion, some Magic Net users were finally starting to react.
