Hollow Spot

People usually used high-speed trains to get from one ring to another. It took varying amounts of time, but it usually took thirty minutes to an hour. This short time was due to the speed of the train and the fact that they traveled directly without wasting time on stops or turns.

Those who didn't want to be in a big hurry used cars. It was not as fast, but it was possible to get from the Third Ring to the First Ring in a few hours if you traveled on special roads.

But... Erik wasn't going to spend that much time on their way.

The tunnel he was driving through provided the shortest way from the seventh wing to the Third Ring.

His car was traveling at seemingly impossible speeds even for sports cars built for racing.

And, Adam soon realized what the reason was.

"Mr. Erik... This car. Was it built at the Iron Observatory?" he speculated.
