Chapter 239 The third stop, "The night that never ends"!
Beep beep beep~
The train began to slow down with a long, pale whistle. The thick fog outside the window also gradually faded and thinned during this process. It was expected that something would be initially visible within a few minutes...
Everyone in the carriage had experienced several stops before and was familiar with the following procedures.
There will be no accidents during this process. The only thing to worry about is what kind of world it will stop in.
Colin and others did not dare to be careless. They held their breath and prepared themselves.
The same is true for Luo Yiming, who has taken the "Train in the Fog" many times. Although anomalies usually do not get on the train, in some dangerous places, the power that permeates from the anomalies can even kill them through the carriages.
As I waited, the wheels slowed down, and a dark world appeared before my eyes.
Against the dark background of the sky is a strange aurora, but the strange thing is that the main color of the aurora is grayish white, and there are other colors on the edges, but you can't see them unless you look carefully.
Overall, it has an indescribable sense of dreaminess.
And under the aurora, there is a vast, empty and dilapidated land. A drizzle of blood-red rain is constantly falling from the sky, spreading a hazy, light red mist on the ground.
Something was jumping in the mist, but due to the distance and the mist, I couldn't see it clearly for the time being...
Click.
The train doors opened.
A breath of moist air seemed to come in from outside...
Colin subconsciously prepared to inhale and analyze the ingredients through his sense of smell, and then he heard the sound of inhalation in his ear -
“Huff…”
Luo Yiming took a breath, then squinted his eyes, as if analyzing something.
Seeing this scene, Colin had mixed emotions. It seemed that after mastering the power of "beastiality", using his nose to "see" the world had become a habit for him.
The key is that this thing really works. After all, it was pulled from an "ancient god" level life form.
If someone has this kind of power, they will smell the scent first when they meet and feel something inexplicably strange.
" Do you want to get off here?" Qin Chuan asked on the side.
This is already the third stop. If we don’t get off, it will be difficult to gamble later.
However, before Colin could speak, Luo Yiming interrupted and said, "If you want to get off here, I advise you not to. It's not safe here. Even though nothing has happened yet, my intuition tells me that this may be more dangerous than my previous stop, the Twisted Jungle."
Intuition? I think your sense of smell is telling you... Colin complained and took a deep breath at the same time.
He acquires information faster than Luo Yiming, and the content should be more in-depth.
But the results are similar.
Getting off here might be more dangerous than the previous forest.
Of course, danger is one thing, but they are not fools who would rush straight up, so as long as they can avoid the danger, it is not impossible to get off the car here.
Thinking of this, Ke Lin glanced at Hu Zheng, who was still lying on the table and chair, his eyes half open, rolled up, and saliva flowing from the corners of his mouth. He looked not very decent.
Apparently he hasn't recovered from the strange things he saw before...
Then, Ke Lin looked at Luo Yiming and asked, "Do you still have the 'Book of Numerology - Fragments'?"
Dude, are you asking the wrong person?
Qin Chuan and several other official extraordinary people all had this idea. After all, it was well known that the "Fragments of the Book of Numerology" was theirs. How could the members of Bonfire Company have it?
But what silenced them was Luo Yiming's response.
"I have one, but it's useless even if I give it to you now, because if you don't trade it at the 'Trading House' or if you kill me, even if you use it, it will be on my head. I've used two today, and I think everyone will be unlucky if I use the third one..."
Luo Yiming spread his hands helplessly. Generally speaking, no one would gamble on the "dice of probability" unless they were in desperate situations.
The 99% probability of "bad luck" is no joke...
Once that thing appears, the probability of survival becomes even lower. Over the years, it seems that only a few people have survived. The most well-known one was trapped on the 18th floor of the hospital and is now asking for help in the internal chat group every day.
To be honest, it was still okay half a year ago, but now everyone in the group is not sure whether this guy is a human or a ghost...
"Kill you..."
Colin muttered to himself, his eyebrows raised. Except for some special tasks, he couldn't use the company's various functions when performing other tasks. It was not easy to break through this, at least he couldn't do it...
But the latter can think about it...
At the same time, Luo Yiming inexplicably felt a sense of crisis. Although his "violent body" was not a "limited edition" and could not produce "fatal insight", he was still very sensitive to the crisis directed at himself.
You won't really kill me for such a thing, will you?
Luo Yiming regretted explaining those words and secretly took precautions.
As a D-level employee, it was the first time that he felt so powerless facing his colleagues.
However, at this moment, Xia Liufang suddenly spoke, looking up at the sky with a complicated expression: "I think I know where this is..."
"Old Xia, do you know where this is?" Qin Chuan asked hurriedly.
"If nothing goes wrong, this is... the sealed part of Australia."
After the words fell, except for Luo Yiming who didn't understand what was going on, the others gasped.
Xia Liufang continued, "If nothing unexpected happens, the Aurora is one of the most advanced things in our country. It is one of the few 'S'-level items in the world, called 'Never-Ending Night'.
"I heard from my elders that it was through this that half of Australia was covered and the blockade of this place was completed...
"And the blood rain, it also comes from an 'S' level item, its characteristic is that it corrodes when it rains, it should be used to suppress this land, but I don't know more information, after all, it is something from abroad...
"Besides that, do you see those mountain-like pillars in the distance? They are top-level 'reality stabilizers' that no country can independently manufacture..."
Colin and the others looked into the distance and indeed saw some tower-like structures that were hundreds of meters high inserted into the ground.
While marveling at Xia Liufang's broad knowledge, everyone also realized one thing: they could not go down to this place. Even though everything seemed normal now, who knows what might happen if they stayed there for too long.
"But come to think of it, has something like this ever happened in Australia? Half the continent was blocked?"
Colin didn’t know about the changes in the “Thread of Destiny”, but how could all countries suppress the news of such a big thing?
That’s half of Australia…
"You guys..." Luo Yiming, a D-level employee of Bonfire Company, couldn't help but be shocked when he heard their words. At this time, he realized that this group of people might not be official personnel?
"What's wrong?" Qin Chuan asked.
Luo Yiming pursed his lips, not knowing what to say, and finally said: "...It's okay."
As a "wild" extraordinary person, he felt that his identity was naturally somewhat shameful, and he inexplicably had some inexplicable feeling towards the authorities, whether it was fear or something else.
Colin on the side could understand his emotions, after all, he had experienced the same emotions not long ago.
What's more troublesome is that when he leaves, he will also be exposed. He doesn't know how those official figures will treat him...
"By the way, are you sure this is that Australia?" Luo Yiming changed the subject. Like Colin, he felt that such a big thing was unlikely to be kept secret and couldn't help but have doubts.
Xia Liufang shook her head and was about to say that she was not 100% sure, but at this moment, in the patter of bloody rain, something moved over...
Bang, bang, bang…
The sounds came one after another, and seemed to move in a bouncing manner, at a fairly fast speed.
Ten seconds later, when everyone in the car saw the jumping object, they couldn't help but fall silent.
It was a kangaroo that was a head taller than everyone present, about two meters tall, with extremely well-developed muscles all over its body. When its muscles moved, it gave people an extremely strong sense of oppression.
At this moment, it was holding a colorful venomous snake in its mouth and chewing it, just like chewing spicy noodles...
The blood rain from the sky fell on it, constantly corroding its fur and causing large areas of ulcers on its skin. However, it didn't seem to care and continued to gnaw on the poisonous snake in its mouth willfully.
As for the flesh beneath the festering skin, it was wriggling rapidly, as if it was constantly repairing itself, which made it look even more hideous and terrifying.
"It seems that there is a kind of extremely vital that is constantly repairing it, and the blood rain is suppressing this resurrecting force..."
Colin suspected that this extremely vital force might be the disaster that this place had experienced.
Compared with other strange things encountered, this power is not so weird and special. It just gives people a sense of vitality and competition as if facing nature.
But it is also possible that other dangers have been suppressed by various countries, leaving only this unimportant feature.
