Train Survival: You're really trying to survive!

"I'm speechless. Why didn't you say something so important earlier?" Su Li leaned back on the sofa speechlessly. "It made me look so bad. If this were a scene from a Grim Reaper movie, my style would have plummeted and I might have been killed instantly by an enemy with a black coffin."

"Hey, I didn't know at the time either." Sun Lili pretended to be cute. "I thought it was a mental ability, and a rather crude one, so I thought I'd figure it out myself. I didn't expect it would require the unique pupil power of the Spirit Eye People. I couldn't pass the most crucial energy verification."

At this moment, Jiao interjected, "That's normal. All kinds of spells and equipment before the apocalypse were developed based on the third eye, the Spirit Eye."

Just like weapons developed by humans, they are generally designed for use with five fingers and palms, without considering how the user would use them if they had tentacles or tentacles. Similarly, houses are not designed to accommodate a 10-meter-tall person.

"Thank you for your trouble. Don't worry, once the war starts, you just stay inside the train while we go out and fight the evil god."

Jiao nodded and walked to the front of the car.

Su Lili explained with exaggerated gestures, "Let me tell you how to activate it. First, do this, then do this, and then cooperate with me, snap, OK?"

Jiao carefully studied the technique and found it wasn't difficult. In this ceremony, he only acted as the key, while Sun Lili handled most of the detailed operations.

After the two discussed it, they began to cast the spell together.

As the spell was cast, the energy inside the portal began to spread outwards, quickly enveloping the entire train.

Ivan pressed the forward button, and the train slowly entered the energy vortex.

Su Li felt the pressure around him increase; this was the magical pressure caused by entering a high-energy flow. He simply roused himself, and the pressure eased. The others felt similarly, except for Jiao, who collapsed suddenly.

Ivan quickly cast a light shield on the reef and activated a halo.

The aura's enhanced attributes, combined with the light shield's resilience, finally allowed the reef to recover.

Su Li leaned back on the sofa and turned to gaze out the window.

A gelatinous substance, somewhere between liquid and luminescence, filled the entire space, rippling with viscous waves as the train moved forward. A crimson tide of light exploded at the front of the train. Initially like diluted wine, it gradually shimmered with a seven-colored glow as the speed increased.

The train seemed to have entered a magnetic levitation state, propelled by the technology, flowing at high speed through the tube.

With each gear increase in speed, the density of the streaks of light doubled. Now, outside the window was a sea of ​​neon lights, and the passengers inside the car were also left with afterimages like those in an animation.

Several days later, the portal at the end of the tunnel appeared.

The train burst through the portal and arrived at an open space.

Ivan pressed the brake.

Su Li and the others picked up their weapons. Su Li glanced at the reef and said, "Now, do as I say and enter the small world. Wait for us to come back."

Zurich was afraid that leaving the reef in the car would allow it to be controlled by an evil god and destroy the world.

It would be better to send it to a smaller world, where the evil god wouldn't be able to control the reef.

Jiao struggled for a moment, then said, "Brother Zuli, can you let me out? This is where my ancestors used to live, and I want to see it."

Su Li paused for a moment, then sighed, "If you get off the bus, I can't guarantee your safety."

"I know. But if I don't take a look, I feel like I won't be at peace even if I die."

“Okay.” Su Li took out a collar. “Put it on. If you get controlled, I can remotely blow your head off. This is also for our safety.”

"I understand."

Jiao put on the collar with peace of mind.

Su Li and the others got off the train. After Jiao got off, Su Li locked the vehicle to prevent Jiao from being controlled and coming back to cause damage.

[Still too soft-hearted.] Su Li sighed inwardly.

After expressing his feelings, Zuli carefully observed the place.

They were now in a place that resembled a train station, indoors, with limited visibility. All around them were vehicles that looked like parked trains.

Sun Lili teleported out and then came back. "The supplies inside are full. Something must have happened suddenly that caused everyone to die."

The platform they are standing on now bears many traces of the movement of giant monsters; the seven great beasts of sin used to often hitch a ride here.

Besides these traces, there is also some marine debris piled up here, but its original state is already visible.

Su Li and the others continued forward and arrived at the very front.

Upon arriving here, the view suddenly opens up.

He leaned against the rusty railing and looked down. In the wall ahead, a large hole had been torn open, allowing monsters tens of meters tall to enter and exit at will. Through the hole, he could see the city in the distance.

They were located on high ground, from which they could overlook the entire city.

The city's main color is pure white, giving it a clean and tidy appearance. However, within this pure white city, there are many signs of vandalism.

The explosion shattered the buildings, and plant-like tendrils, as if giant dragons were emerging from the earth, overturned the ground. Numerous square-shaped metal pillars appeared throughout the city, like crystals growing from the ground, clustered together across the urban landscape.

Above the large hole was a glass ceiling. Through the ceiling, Zuli could see the transparent dome above this underwater city. Suddenly, a shadow swept past outside the protective shield. He looked up and saw seven tentacle-like creatures swimming across the dome, their suckers-like eyes rolling erratically.

On the transparent protective cover, there are some mechanical devices that are operating, cleaning the algae off the cover.

The deep sea outside the protective shield projects purple ripples onto the surface of the buildings, making the entire city look like a dream.

On the street not far away, there were many clothes. The collars of these clothes still retained the upright curve they had when worn, but the fabric was soaked in solidified amber-colored colloid. More clothes appeared at the corner of the alley, children's clothes hung on the railings like cicada shells, and fallen boots were filled with a jelly-like yellow substance. All the fabric linings were covered with a layer of mother-of-pearl-like film.

[They were likely spirit-eyed beings who died after their souls were absorbed by an evil god.]

If you ignore the dangers inside, this is truly a dreamlike post-apocalyptic sci-fi city.

"Honey, look over there!"

Sofia nudged Zuli's arm and then pointed to a defensive line.

Following Sophia's finger, Su Li noticed something unusual.

That direction was where the metal pillars were most numerous, and in the center of the many metal pillars, Su Li saw something familiar.

The streamlined locomotive, the damaged tracks, and the overturned carriages—it was clearly a train car.

"Is it a train carriage from the Blue Star civilization?" Sun Lili guessed. The trains built by the Spirit Eye people themselves are quite different in design from those of the Blue Star people, making them easy to distinguish.

Putting everything else aside, the wheel spacing on their vehicles is 6 meters, which is much wider than on Earth.

"Not necessarily. Trains are a very good means of transportation, and many civilizations have similar ones. But in terms of size and shape, they do look very much like our train carriages."

Moreover, the level is not low. The front of this train, which is level 6-8, is still square in shape. Only the carriages of level 9 and above will have this bullet-shaped high-speed train design.

"Let's go and see what's going on."
