Chapter 177 Investigation of the "Black Forest Subway Station"
What? Black Forest Underground Station?
When Colin saw the name, he was stunned for a moment. After all, he had taken the "Train in the Fog" from here not long ago.
But I didn't expect that there was something wrong with this damn place.
Wait, Colin suddenly remembered something, and the introduction of "Train in the Fog" emerged in his mind: an old train that may appear at various abnormal points. When it appears, there will always be an unsettling gray fog around it.
"Shit ! I didn't even notice that. I thought the train was waiting for me to get on, but it wasn't. So, there was already a problem with the subway station?"
Colin had a sudden realization.
However, when he went to the subway station, he didn't seem to feel anything strange.
There are only two possibilities. The first is that the matter was not too serious at the time and everything was in the hidden stage. In addition, his attention was not there at the time, so he did not notice it...
Another possibility is that the ghost place is more dangerous than he imagined, so he didn't feel anything.
Colin felt that the former was unlikely, because at present, wherever the train went, danger had already taken shape, whether it was the grassland or the town behind...
So the second possibility is the greatest.
"Damn it, this is definitely not an ordinary onboarding task. I heard them say that normal onboarding tasks are very easy. How can they be so simple at first glance..."
Colin wanted to refuse. Compared with others, he knew that he could refuse the task since he had not accepted it yet. After refusing, he would have a new task in a few days.
However, if he refuses, people might find out that he is wrong.
After thinking about it, I decided not to do it.
"With my current strength, I can still walk sideways among the D-class. I should be fine if I'm careful."
Colin comforted himself in his heart.
Then, he opened the parchment, and a familiar interface appeared before his eyes, except that except for the "taskbar", everything was gray, obviously in an inactive state.
According to Colin's experience, the "storage room" and other things will only be opened after completing the entry test.
Without thinking too much, he opened the only slightly flickering [Task Bar] and saw the specific content of this employment test.
[Job Trial - "Investigate the third floor of the large abandoned sewer under the Black Forest subway station." ]
[Description: A large sewer that does not make sense. It seems that due to a leak, some unpredictable changes are taking place there. ]
[Event 1: Please enter the third floor of this large sewer building with other new employees to conduct an investigation. The current progress is 0%.]
【Number of participants: 3 people. 】
[Note: After completing this event, the next task will be assigned based on the results of the investigation.]
…
"A three-person team mission? It's rare, but it doesn't seem special. I just don't know what's in it. It feels like this mission was specially assigned to me by Ms. Rabbit. It should be a bit difficult. But if that's the case, what are the two new teammates for?"
Just as Colin was thinking this, he suddenly remembered that the Bonfire Company had the habit of grouping people together to strengthen the signal.
If the difficulty of this mission is high, then the probability is the same...
Of course, it is also possible that this task just looks a bit strange, and there is nothing special about it.
"By the way, will a large sewer be built next to a subway station? Wouldn't that be too weird?"
Colin felt that this was a bit unreasonable, but he didn't study subways and didn't know whether this kind of urban planning was correct.
But before he could think about it, his heart skipped a beat, his eyes suddenly blurred, and then he almost jumped out of the wheelchair.
Because he suddenly saw that the entire room was filled with countless pairs of eyes. These eyes were posted in every corner of the room, staring at everyone present.
What frightened Colin even more was that the woman in the room was covered with eyes, scanning everyone one by one.
But this strange scene came suddenly and went away suddenly.
In the blink of an eye, everything was restored...
"Okay." The woman who had been sitting in her seat motionless from beginning to end smiled and pressed a button.
"Ding-ling-ling."
The sound of crisp bells rang out from the hall, followed by footsteps outside. Colin saw Qin Chuan and others come in again.
"It feels just like parents waiting outside the school to pick up their children."
Colin complained in his heart, and then continued to be pushed out. Before leaving the hall, he caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye that the woman was still smiling, sitting there silently and motionless. After she left, the sound of iron chains came from inside, as if something was being tied up.
"That woman's condition is really bad. She looks like she will lose control at any moment..."
Colin's thoughts were fluctuating, and at this time, Qin Chuan, who was pushing him, said, "If nothing unexpected happens, we will be colleagues from now on. Although this is my first time leading a team, it's not a big problem. Those who can be sent to carry out this leadership task are elites, and I am no exception."
Uh, is it really appropriate for you to brag about yourself when you can't even cook the food with a fire?
Ke Lin said "hmm" but didn't reply. Qin Chuan continued, "By the way, what is the mission you got?"
"Maybe this ..."
Colin did not hide anything and showed the contents of the "small" parchment scroll to the other party, but as soon as Qin Chuan finished reading it, he couldn't help but frowned.
" What's wrong?"
"No, I'm not sure. Anyway, it doesn't feel right. Wait a minute, I'll go ask first."
After saying that, Qin Chuan walked to the side with a confused look on his face, and said something into the intercom next to his ear. He came over after a few minutes.
Without waiting for Colin to ask, he took the initiative to speak: "Let's verify the matter of the Black Forest subway station. There will be results later . I can't say anything before there are results. In addition, there are your other two teammates.
"They are also from this group. They are over there. Let's go over there first."
He pointed to a place not far away where a group of people had gathered. One of the two had an extremely ferocious appearance. He was the burned man who had been in the same car with Colin not long ago. The other one was someone he had never seen before, but he looked like a middle-aged man. He wore a mask, coughed from time to time, and his face was gloomy.
When Ke Lin came over, one of the officials accompanying the two men said in confusion: "Xiaochuan, when did a sewer appear at the Black Forest subway station? I'm in charge of that area, and I've never heard of it.
"Besides, there's no way a subway station could be built together with a large sewer, right?"
Hearing his words, Colin suddenly remembered the mission's description of this place: "a large sewer with unreasonable existence."
"I don't know. I'm an art student, so it's beyond the scope of my topic. But we'll know after checking it out later."
Qin Chuan joked, "Maybe it's the sewer built by the Germans a hundred years ago. If you go in and look around, you might even find a German engineer wrapped in oil paper."
Ten minutes passed quickly as several people talked and exchanged ideas.
Then, the few people who stayed here soon received a message -
There is indeed no large sewer in that place, but just now, someone reported that an unfamiliar entrance was found in the subway station.
