Global Collapse

Chapter 556 Wuwuwu

"Then you should know how you travel between the two worlds, right?" Gu Mian looked at the driving instructor while holding the 845 in her hand.

“Of course,” Coach Che wasn’t surprised that Gu Mian knew about several worlds. He twitched his eyebrows slightly. “There’s a train that can travel between several worlds, but I’ve only ridden it once. Shortly after that, the train was scrapped…”

The scrapping of this train is one of the reasons why driving instructors are finding it difficult to find work.

There aren't many NPCs that travel between the different worlds; most of them are diligently guarding their own instances within their own worlds.

Only a few unlucky dungeons were gone, so they had to go to other dungeons to farm.

The driving instructor then embarked on a journey away from his hometown, traveling to other worlds.

Unexpectedly, the train had just taken him to his destination when it turned around and picked up Gu Mian.

It eventually disappeared, as expected, and is still being repaired at the repair shop.

The poor train conductor was deeply traumatized and has been in a mental health clinic for several months, only recently starting to recover.

Everyone else thought that the car had been tainted by the driving instructor's bad luck, which was why Gu Mian was in trouble.

Gu Mian thought of something, and after a moment's thought, he said, "Is that car called 'Time Escape'?"

The coach nodded with a distorted expression, his face contorting even more at the thought of not being able to return to his own world.

It really is the train from the bizarre train escape scenario.

Gu Mian said with disdain, "Such an important place shouldn't be protected properly. You actually let players enter it as a dungeon. Now look what happened, it's gone. Are you all brain-dead?"

The driving instructor was shocked that Gu Mian would have the nerve to say such a thing. His thin face trembled, filled with disbelief: "The car is gone, and wasn't that because of you? How dare you call us idiots?"

Ignoring the driving instructor's question, Gu Mian continued, "Can that car travel to the real world?"

The driving instructor shook his head immediately: "No."

"What benefits does this game bring to your lower-dimensional world?"

"do not know."

Seeing that the other party knew nothing about the matter, Gu Mian quickly felt around in 845's pocket, trying to find some information.

But he had nothing in his pocket except a bunch of keys.

Manager 845, being carried by Gu Mian, was covered in sweat, his legs twitching every now and then. Just as he was twitching, he suddenly heard Gu Mian above him ask another crucial question.

“We can’t get any information from you, but there must be high-level people involved in this global game in your low-dimensional world. He must know the details of this game,” Gu Mian said, looking down at 845’s head. “You are a high-ranking official in a big company, so you must know where the high-level people in your world are, or in which instance they are.”

845's mouth trembled, and he even forgot to kick his legs. He stared blankly at the saw teeth in front of him: "I don't know, I don't know anything! I'm just a small branch manager, how would I know where those big shots are?"

As he spoke, he glanced at the coach across from him and said loudly, "You must know! Before your instance collapsed, it was a very high-level instance. You must have connections with the higher-ups in your world!"

The driving instructor kept his mouth shut, refusing to say anything, as if he was not afraid of being crushed to pieces and wanted to leave a clean reputation in the world.

The fortune teller on the side became anxious, because Gu Mian had told her that he would leave the instance after sunset.

Time is running out. If this stalemate continues, she'll be all alone once Gu Mian leaves.

We need to finish this quickly!
We need to get these two NPCs to talk!
She frantically rummaged through her inventory and finally pulled out a huge thing.

Then, 845, the driving instructor, and the teddy bear heard the woman shout a chilling statement: "I have a bomb that can blow up all the buildings here!"

Gu Mian turned her head and saw that the fortune teller was holding a special item.

[Description of a Bomb for Dangerous Buildings]: An extremely rare and special item, said to have been manufactured by a developer for the purpose of quickly clearing the site. However, due to its high cost and the rarity of the materials, only one such item exists.

[Function: Pulling the safety ring will rapidly detonate all buildings in the area ten minutes later, but it can cleverly avoid living objects. Even if you are inside a building and use this item, you will be unharmed.]

[Friendly reminder: Although this bomb will avoid living beings, if you are inside a building when it explodes, you will still be crushed by the collapsing structure. Although you will not be injured by the blast, there is a risk of being crushed to death.]

This is a special item that the fortune teller obtained in a construction site instance.

This thing was hidden very well; if it weren't for her special profession, she really wouldn't have been able to find it.

But although this thing was hidden, it was of little use and was always kept at the bottom of the fortune teller's box.

Unexpectedly, it has now come in handy.

Sure enough, both 845 and the coach turned green.

"That's really great," Gu Mian exclaimed.

Even though Coach Che seemed determined to leave a clean record, the bomb still made him change his expression. He almost cursed, "What idiot invented this kind of special item!"

845 couldn't hold back any longer: "That must be those idiots from the Escape World!"

The driving instructor suspected that if the food factory exploded, he would be sent to a second-instance court and sentenced to two life sentences.

The reasons given for the verdict were probably things like "spreading a musty smell" or "inviting a wolf into the house."

Gu Mian acted quickly; he immediately led the diviner up the ladder and left the office.

Then the fortune teller pulled the safety ring and dropped it down.

The instructors and students below, like ants on a hot plate, were practically jumping up as they watched the bomb being dropped.

This thing won't explode for another ten minutes, so the two people on it aren't in a hurry to leave.

The fortune teller peered through the hinged door at the teddy bear below: "Huh? Don't you want your special item anymore?"

Gu Mian couldn't figure out what the fortune teller meant by the special item.

He looked at the two below and said, "Now you can tell me the location of the important NPCs, right? 845, you don't want to work odd jobs like Coach Che, do you? Look how pitiful he is now. Once this food factory is blown up, you'll be just as pitiful as him."

The coach's face was ashen; he could already picture himself being locked up in prison after the food factory exploded.

Two seconds later, he decisively spoke up: "I know of a dungeon called 'The Circus of Love and Justice,' where there are high-level leaders. You might find something there. That's all I know. Hurry up and put the bomb away!"

The fortune teller said, "It can't be taken back. We have to throw it somewhere else so it won't explode here."

As she spoke, she looked at Gu Mian and said, "Let's run!"

Gu Mian nodded in agreement, then took the fortune teller and ran away, leaving the driving instructor and 845 cursing below.

The driving instructor hesitated for a moment, then picked up the bomb from the ground, preparing to run out and throw it somewhere else.

But just as he was climbing the ladder, the hinged door above seemed to be blown by the wind and snapped shut in front of him with a "snap".

Seeing this, 845 anxiously asked, "Where are your keys?"

"Gu Mian took it, so what about yours?"

"He took it too..."

Waaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
