Campfire Shelter

Facing Colin's question, Aikaxi thought hard for a while before finally shaking his head.

“The voice that brought ‘revelation’ did not tell us who was summoned, but only provided us with the method.”

After a pause, she added:

"I also don't remember the specifics, but it seems to be a clear and useful method."

‘I don’t even know who I am summoning, so I can believe it. The branch is really full of talented people.’

Colin cursed in his heart, then thought about it, and continued to ask if he knew who the so-called "mysterious voice" was.

Aikaxi continued to think for a while, still shaking his head: "I received a certain 'revelation' while praying. Later, under the guidance of the 'revelation' event, I heard the voice, and followed the guidance to leave the tribe step by step. When I came here, I could only feel that she was a woman, and I can’t remember the rest.”

Guidance and indirect communication through mission events, a woman.

Listening to this information, Colin estimated that it was most likely Ms. Rabbit.

After all, this series of techniques has a strong sense of déjà vu.

In addition, there seems to be some weak connections from the tasks in my mind.

The situation should be quite different.

‘By the way, this is in line with her approach. It’s usually hard to know who she will bring in until the last moment. ’

‘But this time, if nothing else happens, there won’t be any surprises either from the group army or senior employees. ’

The thought flashed across his mind. Colin thought about it and asked some questions.

Compared to Winnie, she knew more details, and what Colin knew was more complete.

Today, in the world where Aikasi lives, the periodic natural disasters that occur every ten to fifteen years and last for about a year have just passed.

Everything originally built in the past few years has been destroyed, and weird and terrifying aberrant creatures remain everywhere on the earth.

After being covered by natural disasters, the power of "dark night" also began to fade.

They will then find an opportunity at the right time to perform the "Eternal Night" ritual and gain power again.

Thereby expelling the aberrant creatures, reclaiming the land, continuing to accumulate supplies, looking for a way out, and thinking of ways to deal with the next periodic crisis.

"After every periodic disaster, the extraordinary power in your hands will be greatly weakened, and then you need to start all over again?" Colin discovered the key.

"Yes." Aikaxi nodded.

"So, if you don't perform rituals after a natural disaster, will your power disappear completely?"

At this moment, Aikaxi thought for a while and then said: "It seems that it will disappear completely, and the original extraordinary people will become ordinary people. The stronger they are, the greater the price they pay, and they may even die."

"If the ritual is not performed, everyone's power will completely disappear. Are you sure?"

Colin asked again, and after receiving a positive answer, his mind immediately started thinking.

Looking at it this way, "Dark Night" only gives power that can be lost at any time, and does not give permanent things like characteristics.

That's why periodic natural disasters occur, and the power of "dark night" will be interrupted or even disappear if it cannot be maintained.

Aikasi and their tribe are believers in a sense.

But there is a high probability that their involvement is not very deep.

‘Serious ‘Dark Night’ believers should be like the ‘Dark Night’ people on starships, who have undergone certain life changes and possess some characteristics left over.’

‘Whether ‘Dark Night’ is around or not, their power will never disappear. ’

‘Only in this case is it truly hopeless’

‘And the ordinary people in Aikasi’s world are probably like veteran drivers who have read countless films but have no practical experience. No matter how many skills they know, it is meaningless. ’

After putting the situation into perspective, Colin felt that everything was not as difficult as he thought.

I just don’t know if “Dark Night” doesn’t give them “characteristics” because they don’t want to give them or are unable to give them.

It would be impossible to provide "characteristics".

It can be foreseen that the coffin board of "Dark Night" should have been nailed tightly by the company.

They are much more likely to die than ordinary heretics.

After all, the "great will" that some heretics believe in can still give some characteristic power, and they are agents like bishops and patriarchs.

Even though he has millions of followers, he still has no characteristics to create an "extraordinary person".

It can only mean that the coffin is sealed with cement.

"Okay, okay, the tighter the seal is, the better. This way it should be semi-stable."

Colin felt a little relieved, and then he raised his head and looked out the window.

Seeing that nothing unexpected happened, and it seemed that he wouldn't be able to reach the seventh station for a while, he withdrew his gaze and returned his attention to Aikaxi who was receiving treatment.

"By the way, what about the so-called periodic natural disasters in the world?" He continued to ask.

If there might be any surprise at that time, it would obviously be this unknown thing.

It's not a simple thing that can block the disaster of "dark night".

"We don't have a lot of information in this regard. We only know the characteristics of some aberrant biological populations. Other than that, it's not very clear why disasters happen."

Aikaxi shook his head.

Although they have been stationed there for hundreds of years, they have only opened up a very small part of the known movable area.

And every once in a while, it will be completely destroyed and restarted, making it impossible to get out at all.

Not only was it impossible to rush out, but the harsh living environment caused the overall population to decline.

From tens of millions of people a few hundred years ago, the population has been reduced to less than one-third of the original number.

Under such circumstances, it would be difficult to survive, let alone expand.

'It has not been able to take root for hundreds of years, and every natural disaster has to come back again. Looking at it this way, the world itself cannot be underestimated, but I don't know what the situation is.'

Colin felt that it might be some kind of out-of-control numbered world.

"By the way, do you know anything about your own past?" Colin asked in depth.

According to Aikaxi, although their race has experienced many catastrophic disasters over the years, they do not seem to have stopped.

But, it's a pity.

"Maybe some tribesmen know, but I don't know. I only know that when we passed there from beyond the sky, we stayed there because of a very wide-ranging disaster, and we have been there until now."

"Except for the world we live in, all other worlds have been destroyed. This is the common understanding of the tribesmen."

"But the truth is obviously not that. Your appearance is enough to break the lies spread by this 'Night Sect'."

Aikaxi looked at Colin and the others, as if they were looking at something called "hope".

‘Girl, I’m afraid it’s not too good outside’

Colin pursed his lips, but after thinking about it, this thing is a competition after all.

If the next world is really that bad, then even if they go to "World No. 13", they will regard it as paradise.

‘Having said that, it shouldn’t be said that there is no dating, but that when the disaster that forced them to stop the car happened, a lot of things were already lost. More than three hundred years ago? ’

This time point is almost in line with when the company is in trouble.

And once it matches.

It's basically a bad debt that is currently unknown.

Colin shook his head and asked as many questions as possible from Aikash to learn about the situation.

However, after waking up, he kept psyching himself up and communicated continuously for several hours. Aikasi's condition declined significantly, and his language began to become a little confusing.

Thinking that the general information had been obtained, Colin asked her to take a rest first, and then took out two "colorless crystals", giving one to "Fire Tree" and one to Aikaxi.

"How much can her body recover in these two days?"

Colin looked at the "Fire Tree" who had been treating Aikaxi and Wei Ni.

"My life will definitely be fine. I will have some surgery soon and my appearance will be restored. But my strength should only be restored to the fifth or sixth level? She has been injured to the core, and she is not a true extraordinary person. At least in a short period of time, she cannot recover much. It will probably take at least half a month for everything to fully recover."

When talking to Colin, Huoshu is usually quite honest and does not use any weird word order.

At the same time, when Colin was chatting with Aikasi, when he heard some dangerous words such as "dark night", he honestly "closed" his ears.

Knowing too much about some things is not a good thing.

"OK."

Colin nodded. Aikasi's strength was pretty good. At least it was stronger than the two D-class ones that followed, but it was much lower than that Lavinia. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to run in a short period of time and be beaten to death. That way

Of course, he didn't expect the other party to provide much combat power, as long as he didn't die.

After the conversation ended, the carriage became slightly quiet, with only the sound of "clang, clang, clang, clang" coming from under the train floor.

The "Master of the Fish Pond" on the side came over carefully, looked at Colin, raised his hand and tapped his brain.

Then, Colin realized that the team information in his mind contained the words of the other party.

"Brother Shunzi, are the words they said really credible?"

After the conversation started, the two employees kept watching Brother Shunzi talking to each other without interrupting.

They have always been puzzled, and it seems that Brother Shunzi has almost no doubts about what these people say, as if he believes whatever they say.

'Judging from the damage to the other party's brain, it is even possible that their memory has been tampered with before. This is true and false. How do I know whether I can completely believe it?'

Colin cursed in his heart, his face remained calm, but he responded to the two of them in his mind, expressing uncertainty.

Regarding this kind of situation, his usual method is to get the news first and then talk about it.

Then follow up to confirm its authenticity bit by bit.

That's better than not knowing at all.

Seeing Brother Shunzi's response, the two of them didn't think much and continued to ask about other things, such as "dark night" and so on.

'You are really newborn calves not afraid of tigers, you dare to ask anything.'

After Colin complained, he thought for a while and said: "The root cause may be something more terrifying than the 'robots' in the internal group. If you don't want to suddenly die suddenly one day, you'd better forget about it."

"It's sizzling."

Normally, the two of them would not be afraid, but with the "robot" as a foil, they immediately became frightened.

For employees who have not yet encountered many truly horrific missions,

"Retarded robots" are already one of the most dangerous things they know.

Time passed little by little, and two hours later, the speed of the train began to change.

"The car will be parked soon."

As Colin spoke, the flames on his body began to spread, gradually wrapping the car, making everything around him invisible to prevent the "Night Sect" killers from coming to attack.

After all, Colin didn't know where Lanivia went after she "self-destructed".

Either she is a clone, or she has a unique way to return to the original world.

Not long after, the thick gray fog outside the car window began to fade, and then he saw that he seemed to have come to a pitch-black area, similar to a port.

In the port, many stones and a large number of unknown building fragments floated in the air due to the lack of gravity.

It looks like another abandoned and dangerous area.

The style is similar to the space station, but the difference is that as soon as he arrived here, Colin felt that there were many indescribable, flowing, and shapeless things looking at him.

Their eyes are filled with undisguised malice.

only

When Colin caused the fire to erupt further and spurt out from the car door, the "eyes" of the invisible thing suddenly became "clear" at this moment, and then escaped with a shrill "scream" full of fear.

"The card 'Bonfire' is very useful in many cases."

Colin glanced at the stones and metals that turned into powder in his "scream", and sighed in his heart.

Afterwards, the train checked in and set off again.

Only this time, Colin thought it would be another long ride. Unexpectedly, the train door had just closed, and less than three minutes into the journey, a cold word appeared on his retina along with text.

[Notice: From now on, train transfers in this section will begin, and passengers will be transferred to 'Mist Train-9713-31'. In order to avoid boarding errors, passengers in need are requested to leave this section in an orderly manner within ten minutes. train carriage]

"'Transfer'?"

Orange Cat and the "Lord of the Fish Pond" were stunned when they saw this, and then they reacted and subconsciously stood up from their chairs and looked at Brother Shunzi behind them.

"We don't have to leave."

Colin waved his hand, and the intuition given by the mission told him that the real destination was after the transfer.

After hearing his words, the two sat down again.

As for Aikasi and Wei Ni who were woken up, they saw that the three of them were unmoved by the strange sound and didn't say much.

That is ten minutes after the prompt came out.

Everyone in the car was suddenly in a daze for a moment, and then the train suddenly changed in front of them.

I saw that the originally futuristic carriage has now returned to a steampunk theme.

Brass furnishings include swan-melted seats, exposed pipes, differential machine decoration, exquisite ceiling lights, etc.

In addition, there is a more obvious change.

The carriage that used to be about a hundred square meters suddenly expanded more than ten times and became very spacious.

"Damn, it's so big. Is this a train?"

Orange Cat marveled, but the "Master of the Fish Pond" next to him heard this and said disdainfully:

"I don't know enough to make such a fuss like you do."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but recall the memory of when he and a group of people struggled to pass the three-car train of the "Ghost Train".

That train carriage is bigger than this one.

However, just after he finished speaking, he looked at Colin to ask if there were any instructions, but found that the other person was frowning and staring outside with a solemn expression.

The "Master of the Fish Pond" frowned, looked along, looked through the car window, and suddenly took a breath of air.

"Holy crap, what the hell is this place?!"
