Chapter 346 116: Zombie Train
The old train was running on the railway track, and with a clanging sound, it plunged into the area under the thick dark clouds ahead.
Ta-ta-ta.
The sky turned dark quickly, as if it was turning into night, and raindrops suddenly began to fall, until it started pouring down, and the train windows made a loud noise like popping beans, which took no more than ten seconds.
A hint of the unique tropical rainforest smell seemed to pass through the cracks and into the interior of the car, and was quickly covered up by the turbid smell inside the train.
No locals were surprised. After all, this is Rio, a tropical region where heavy rains are not uncommon.
However, some tourists who came for an in-depth experience looked at the weather, which was almost completely dark and blocked by heavy rain, so that they could barely see what was happening one meter away. They were worried that it would be more troublesome to get off the bus later, which would easily delay their trip.
But who knows, whether this is also part of the joy of traveling?
Today's train carriage was very crowded. It might have been the school's Christmas vacation, which coincided with the Holy See's permanent visit to the Ladder Church, attracting many passengers who made a special trip there.
Loud talks, children playing, and videos played out all mixed into a cacophony of noise.
It is difficult for most people to fall asleep in such an environment, but there are also some gods who snore like thunder, and then in the crowded crowd, a hand quietly takes away the wallet he is protecting.
Someone saw it, but did not stop him. He just silently tightened his grip on his belongings.
Backpacker Makoto Ito was leaning in the corner of the carriage, his face covered by a mask and hood, looking strange to me.
However, this deliberate concealment did not attract anyone's attention, because he always turned on the ability of [Concealment].
Therefore, no one pushed in his direction. It was as if from the perspective of others, the default was that there was an air wall in this place and they could not get close.
Almost everyone was unaware of his existence.
Of course, he can rely on this ability to comfortably go to a sleeper berth or dining car where there are few people, but without the cover of the crowd, his appearance will be extremely conspicuous, and the surveillance and inspections in those places are relatively strong. Since he is in this country If he had taken action, I'm afraid the authorities would monitor and track him.
If it appears alone, it can be easily analyzed by the AI that is now widely used.
At this time, he really envied many extraordinary people. Changing his appearance was as easy as breathing.
It makes it look like an extraordinary standard configuration.
Taking a deep breath, listening to the heavy rain hitting the window, he raised his head a little irritably, feeling uncomfortable all over.
He knew that this was the onset of hydrophobia.
Even hearing the sound of water is hard to control.
This time he really became a little fire dragon, even though he could obviously control water.
Now, all he can do is stretch out his hand, control the raindrops to gather the water flow, change the impact on the car, and reduce the noise.
To others, it sounds like the rain has become lighter.
But it seemed that, apart from not hitting the car window, the rain and fog were still so heavy that it was completely difficult to see the slightly distant scenery.
It's just that many people don't take it seriously and don't realize how weird this situation is.
On the other hand, there was a high school student with his eyes wide open, lying next to the window with a look of disbelief on his face, as if he had discovered some miracle.
He muttered the words "How is this possible?!" "Physics no longer exists!" "Is it special convective weather? The geography teacher didn't even teach it!"
The adults next to him had no such awareness at all and were busy chatting with the friends they met in the car. Even the college students opposite just glanced at him and lost interest and continued to enjoy watching short videos.
"You also came back after worshiping at the Ladder Church? What a coincidence. I took advantage of the Pope's presence to go there. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see Pastor Brand and the others."
"Then you must have attended the recent mass. I feel a lot more relaxed."
"I heard that several incidents occurred in Rio recently, but they were quickly solved by the Holy See's extraordinary powers. Alas, it would be great if our country also had extraordinary powers."
"You can't say that. If there are too many extraordinary things, it will be difficult to control, like in Japan now."
"That's right. There were originally a lot of Japanese people coming here, and it's become more and more common in the past few years. There is a Japanese street in my remote town. Haha, in a few years, I don't know who to say in this country. Forget it.”
"There are too many extraordinary things in Japan, and it is impossible for the government to boycott them. Unless we find other extraordinary forces to support us, I don't know if the Holy See is willing to do so. No matter what, we are all the people of the Lord."
"Who knows."
The topics people talk about are just these aspects, national affairs, Christmas plans and family affairs.
Playing with your phone all the time on the train is tiring, and chatting with strangers is also a pastime.
"Huh? Why does the car seem to be slowing down? It's still some distance from Belodu."
As the speed of the train became more and more obvious, people also started to make some commotion, each talking and making speculations.
"Dear passengers, please note that due to an abnormality in the track on the section ahead, emergency repairs are scheduled to be carried out when the heavy rain stops. Please be patient and wait for the train to restart. Dear passengers."
The radio in the carriage sounded and was repeated three times, and everyone understood the reason.
Many people breathed a sigh of relief, at least there was no landslide. Otherwise, based on the official efficiency they understood, it would definitely be inaccessible in a short time, and they would have to go back the same way and then consider other modes of transportation.
Rumble.
Outside the train, as if in response to the broadcast, a dazzling bolt of lightning penetrated the black clouds and gave off fireworks, followed closely by extremely loud rolling thunder.
It rained harder.
It has reached a point where even the original inhabitants of the tropical rainforest find it rare.
"With this damn weather, I have to rush back to decorate the Christmas tree."
"Ask your husband to handle it."
"Hell, when you ask him to do something, he's either busy or in pain."
"If a husband disobeys me, he is probably used to it. People in my family would not dare to disobey."
The other person glanced at the tonnage who said this and grinned. At your weight level, who dares not to listen? Didn't you see that the guy in the next seat was so squeezed that his face turned pale? Like a dead person.
Hmm. Like a dead person?
A passenger just came up with such a weird thought. The poor guy who looked like a dead person in his eyes and had been squeezed by the window for a long time suddenly seemed like he couldn't bear it anymore and started to resist, biting into the thick fat of the passenger.
Good guy, after one sip like this, why don’t you drink two kilograms of green tea to relieve your tiredness?
wrong!
Is now the time to think about this? !
The man opened his jaw in shock and subconsciously stretched out his finger to point at the woman.
"You, you you!!"
"What are you doing? You're stammering! If you can't understand what you're saying, don't point fingers." The woman didn't know if she was too defensive, but she didn't even notice it for a moment, thinking that the man couldn't understand what she just said. .
"No! That guy next to you!" He finally calmed down, but at this time, he could already see the blood seeping out of his clothes.
"Ahhhhh!!! Let go! Pervert! Flight attendant! Flight attendant, come here quickly, sister, help me push him away!"
The woman reacted belatedly, looking at the piece of meat on her waist that was bitten tightly, she let out a howl like a slaughtering pig, instantly suppressing other sounds in the entire carriage, attracting everyone's attention. look.
"Ho ho." The man who bit the woman was still waving his claws around, scratching several people at once, leaving several bloody gashes.
"Resurrection Corpse! Resurrection Corpse!!" Someone suddenly screamed.
In the past half month, the name of the resurrected zombie has been greatly popularized. Of course, it mainly relies on zombie culture. Anyone who has watched two similar movies will not be the kind of person who sees zombies and tells them not to continue. Such nonsense.
Hearing the famous name of the resurrected corpse, the expressions of the bitten woman and the person who had just been caught trying to help changed drastically and turned pale.
Even if the people around were crowded, they would scream and squeeze towards any gap.
Suddenly, the carriage was in chaos.
"Fake! This is a liar! He must be a mental patient!"
The woman screamed, and her eyes slowly turned completely white without her even noticing.
This time it is completely real. =
"Roar——"
"Ah!"
The high school students who originally ran away to watch the excitement were pushed to the front of the crowd without knowing it. They wanted to go back, but found that a wall of people had formed and they couldn't get through at all!
The resurrected corpse finally let go, and the woman completely transformed into a new resurrected corpse. Even the few people who were scratched became stunned.
"Ho ho!"
A woman is like a tank, about to pounce on the nearest uninfected high school student.
"Don't come over!"
The high school student peed his pants, feeling desperate about the tonnage gap, without any possibility of resistance.
Snap!
When the high school student came to his senses, he already had one foot left in front of him, and the woman was kicked away.
"These things must be against me, right?"
Ito Seigang looked gloomy.
He just wanted to stay away from the disputes completely and be a good travel expert. He had tried his best to avoid the center of the vortex. Why did he feel that the vortex was sucking towards him.
Loosen your ankles, that kick just now was actually not easy.
He has no rigid body and no strange powers.
Without using [Burning] and [Raging Waves], there is basically not much basic physical attack ability, relying entirely on water and fire attribute damage.
Even his physical damage immunity cannot take effect until the [Fire Knight] ability is activated.
So based on his current physique, it is only equivalent to almost the limit that ordinary humans can achieve.
But the problem is that in a small and crowded place like a carriage, the micro-control of flames is difficult to operate. If it is too violent, it will easily brighten the nearby oxygen. When I look back later, oh well, all of them died due to lack of oxygen. .
"Roar!"
The remaining resurrected corpses ignored their comrades who had hit the side hard, and accelerated towards Ito.
"Go and knock on the window."
Ito spoke English to the high school student.
The high school student came to his senses, nodded tremblingly at Ito, and ran towards the window on the other side.
Ito, on the other hand, did not use the ability of fire, but simply used his strength to fight against several resurrected corpses.
"Hammer!"
The crowd was rushing towards another car, but some people stopped, took off the hammer in the crowd, and threw it towards the high school students.
The high school student quickly took it and hit the corner of the window with a hammer, doing what he had been trying many times in his mind.
With a few bangs, the train carriage was smashed into pieces, and a violent storm swept in immediately.
At this moment, a long river of water fell from the sky and poured in through the broken car window, suddenly rushing several resurrected corpses out of the other side of the car window.
"Extraordinary!"
The high school student woke up and realized that he had encountered a supernatural being.
Ito Chenggang did not feel relaxed. He could sense that the trouble had just begun.
At the same time, because the surrounding area was filled with water, it also aroused his hydrophobia, and his sense of strength was losing like crazy.
Angry Waves cannot perform too precise operations. He can only make most of the water flow converge and avoid him, but he cannot completely avoid the water mist sprinkled by the wind.
"Ah! Zombies, there are all zombies over there!"
People who had just ran to other carriages came back with bad news.
It's just that those who just saw Ito's great power are not so scared. According to the official statement, these resurrected corpses are not truly extraordinary, so there is someone in the car who is truly extraordinary, so he should be fine, right?
Ito held his breath and walked towards the other carriage without saying a word. Everyone moved out of the way automatically or forcedly.
The high school students looked at the broken windows. Many people had already jumped out of the windows crazily. Even if there was a heavy rainstorm with visibility less than a few meters outside, they could not stop their determination to escape from this zombie train.
He clenched the hammer in his hand and did not follow. Instead, he mustered up the courage to follow Ito Seigang.
Ito ignored it and continued to move forward with the opposite flow of people until they reached the connection between the two carriages, which was the most chaotic place.
People who tried to push through the crowd, people who were thrown to the ground or against the walls of cars, and "people" who turned into resurrected corpses and stood up from the bloody floor in a daze.
A scene that looks exactly like a classic zombie movie.
Blood splattered all around, and screams and roars filled the ears.
But at least, apart from the blood, it was dry.
Ito wiped the water droplets off his face, and his eyes became colder. In this situation, the car in front may have collapsed.
So he raised his hand, and a hot flame surged out like an upright tornado, causing the people following him to slightly open their mouths.
To be honest, this kind of scene is just a small scene compared to the extraordinary highlights on the Internet, but being there at the scene feels completely different from watching a video. Even if it is not aimed at them, the high temperature rushing towards them makes people's minds shake.
The tongue of fire licked it, and everything was scorched black.
There were no residual flames on the corpses and flammable objects, because Ito had put them away again.
Ito didn't stop, turned around, and walked towards the other car.
It was raining outside and he wasn't going anywhere.
As long as all the resurrected corpses are killed, the place will be quiet.
But not surprisingly, his travel plans fell through.
Voodoo, right? He thoroughly remembered this incident. When he returned to Rio, he went to the Holy See as soon as possible to help them deal with this sect that was more troublesome than the hypocrites.
