Chapitre 622: Trains in Polaris Realm

Thinking about the method of getting around that existed on Earth but didn't exist in the Polaris Realm, Vicente immediately considered the feasibility of such a project.

Traveling by wagons across the continent had many problems. The main one was the risk of being attacked or robbed. That alone represented half the cost of products ordered by people in places far from the points where the products were offered.
