Chapter 266 Arrival Doubts
Under the pleading of the three, Wang Zhifan finally agreed to let them return and allowed them to enter the luxury car. Anyway, he felt that a few more helpers would be useful after all.
As a result, the luxury car No. 666, which originally seemed relatively empty, regained a bit of popularity. The young man with dark circles, the oily-faced middle-aged man and the cold-faced woman came in and sat down on the white sofa, making them completely different from before. All unusable space is occupied.
Wang Zhifan chatted with them for a while after they came in. After knowing how the so-called ticket checking made them exhausted, he continued to lie on the sofa to practice while others rested. Chatting and the atmosphere was very relaxed.
During this process, passengers on platform 16 also came over and wanted to join, but Wang Zhifan ignored them and arranged for other players to refuse for him in advance. The main reason was that he felt that this luxury carriage could no longer hold people because there were too many people. It would affect his and the players' rest. At the same time, he also felt that there was no point in completing the so-called forbidden area mission and adding more cannon fodder.
In this way, as the Death Train started again from Platform 16, the crew of Car 666 was fixed to five players, heading towards their mission destination, which was Platform 17.
The journey time is not short, and the various torture incidents on the train have no tendency to decrease, but all such terrible things have nothing to do with the five people in Car No. 666. The luxury car has immunity The privilege of the event allowed all five of them to rest peacefully.
"Oh my God...I finally recovered..."
At this moment, at least four hours have passed, and Heilongjia, who had rested on the white sofa, The young man with circles under his eyes stood up and stretched, feeling that all the fatigue and irritability left by the previous train incident had been cleared away.
"Yes, this luxury carriage is different. Without all that bullshit, I feel as if I am a few years younger, and my brain seems to be much clearer."
The greasy-faced middle-aged man who had also finished his break also echoed. He was the oldest among the group of people, and he was a legal professional. He was almost tired and lying on the ground due to the ticket inspection incident. Only now did he feel his The condition has completely recovered.
"Has it been several hours? Are we almost at the station?"
The cold-faced woman also opened her eyes at this time. She first turned her head and looked at it, which was still blood red. There was no change outside the window, and I looked back around the interior of the car, trying to find a clock or schedule, but unfortunately I saw nothing.
"Train AI, help me check how long it will take to reach platform 17."
Wang Zhifan was also more concerned about this issue. He withdrew from the dream practice and chose to exercise his privilege to obtain The answer is, don't think that asking when the station will arrive is not a privilege. This information is not directly visible on the Death Train.
"Dear captain, this train is expected to arrive at platform 17 in 19 minutes."
The speaker on the ceiling overhead responded immediately.
"There are less than twenty minutes left? Then we can make preparations and discuss countermeasures in advance."
Hearing the answer, Wang Zhifan's heart froze, and his eyes swept across the carriage. Refreshed foursome. No matter how confident he was, he still had to pay attention to the mission location that was listed as a forbidden area by Hell Academy. It was impossible to just rush in.
“We must first know where the building is in the area of Platform 17, and then plan two routes, one for attack and one for retreat.”
The greasy-faced middle-aged man was the first to look at Wang Zhifan and gave his opinion.
“I have asked the train AI about the location information. You must already know that it is a special configuration of this luxury carriage. I have asked it about various details of the Evil Spirit Building. Problem, but the key information is still very lacking.”
Shortly after the three returned to this carriage, they learned about the privileges they had here during their chat. Wang Zhifan just reminded them now.
"Are you completely unclear about the situation in the building? Then we really have to think of something."
The young man with dark circles nodded after hearing this and fell into thinking.
"I suggest that before officially entering the building, we use other things to explore it, such as war pets, small robots, etc."
The girl in short-haired sportswear rarely spoke up at this time.
"You can give it a try. I happen to have a pet, but it can only detect and has no fighting ability."
The greasy-faced middle-aged man then responded.
“I can also use the clone skill to detect first.”
Wang Zhifan also responded.
“As a mage, you don’t have detection skills?”
The cold-faced woman stared at the greasy-faced middle-aged man and continued to argue, maintaining their previous image.
More than ten minutes were spent in discussion among everyone. They each expressed their opinions and discussed a plan of action that was as safe as possible, but it was not specific to very details. After all, they lacked the knowledge of the target location. Information, there is not much time left for discussion.
“Dear passengers, platform 17 has arrived, please get on and off the bus in an orderly manner.”
As the train slowly entered the station, an announcement came from the radio, but this time in addition to the announcement for all passengers, there was also an announcement inside Car No. 666 specifically informing them of their tasks.
"Dear Captain of Car No. 666, you have arrived at the platform where the mission belongs. Please lead all team members to get off the bus as soon as possible and go to the destination to perform the mission. If there is any violation, enforcement measures will be implemented."
< br>"Sure enough, you can't skip this It’s a mission... Let’s set off!”
Hearing what was said so clearly on the radio, Wang Zhifan no longer wanted to fool around and change the mission. He immediately stood up and opened the side door of the carriage, leading the four of them. People walked out of the train and came to the platform square.
This platform 17 is somewhat similar to the platform 14 they saw more than ten hours ago. The area is very huge and the whole is very dilapidated. The main difference is that the number of passengers waiting here is very small, only a few. They were the only ones who seemed to get off at this platform. It was very deserted to the naked eye.
"Let's go straight over there first."
Since he already knew the route to the Evil Spirit Building from the train AI, Wang Zhifan was walking at the front to lead the way for others.
He then met a black-robed ghost man who was seriously injured in the square. Judging from his condition, he seemed to have completed his mission in the platform area and was preparing to return by train.
"Friends, you are also here to do a mission? Please be careful, there is an evil ghost wandering nearby!"
This returning guest seems to be very enthusiastic, even though he has many flaws Wounds and Heart stepped forward to remind Wang Zhifan and others of the danger ahead.
"Thank you."
Wang Zhifan immediately expressed his thanks after hearing this, but the next moment he swung out the Ocean Messenger in his hand without any warning, and cut off the ghost man's head in a flash of lightning. "Ah!!!"
The black-robed ghost man whose head was beheaded then underwent a violent change in his body, and transformed into two identical ghost men amidst the ear-piercing screams. They rushed towards Wang Zhifan. At the same time, the two ghosts only had evil energy left on their bodies, and no trace of their popularity.
“Let’s go together!”
When the four players at the back saw this, they didn't know that this guy was a ghost in disguise, so they all used their own methods to launch attacks, hoping to help Wang Zhifan eliminate this enemy. In a moment, bullets, wind blades, and darts came out, hitting the daredevil. The ghosts charging at them.
I have to say that the strength of these players is quite good. Even if they failed to kill the ghost, they still caused a lot of damage to the opponent's body. However, the one who could really solve it was Wang Zhifan. When he saw him In the next moment, he used his power to release the Menghua sword light, instantly killing the injured ghosts and annihilating them without a trace.
"It's gone now? The strength of this ghost is far worse than the one on the train."
After finishing, Wang Zhifan couldn't help but show a little surprise on his face, because he didn't Unexpectedly, this guy was so weak, so he took it seriously and killed him in seconds.
"Brother is awesome! One hit is stronger than the rest of us combined! This mission is definitely safe!"
The young man with dark circles standing at the back saw this and began to flatter Wang Zhifan again, as if he wanted to boost everyone's fighting spirit in this way.
“You guys don’t put up flags casually!”
Unexpectedly, the cold-faced girl and the short-haired girl turned to him and said unhappily, blaming him for setting up flags before the mission even started. flag.
"Stop making noise! Everyone, be careful! We are not in a luxury carriage now! You may encounter the next enemy at any time!"
The greasy-faced middle-aged man also frowned and reminded. Everyone.
After this small episode, everyone quickly adjusted to the most stable state and continued to move forward under the leadership of Wang Zhifan.
They first walked a few hundred meters forward and left Platform 17, then stepped onto an extremely quiet cement road and officially entered the nearby urban area.
There is only an empty shell left in this city. Except for a few of them, not even half a living person can be seen. It is completely a dead city, or more accurately, a ghost town.
The subsequent section of the road was a little more exciting. On the way to the Evil Spirit Mansion, they saw many ghosts appearing around them, but most of these ghosts just approached them and did not directly attack. There were only a few ghosts. The desire to attack was very strong and they quickly perished in their hands. Moreover, the strength of these ghosts was basically average, and some of the stronger ones were simply not good enough in front of Wang Zhifan.
“The building in front is the Evil Spirit Building.”
Two hours later, a hundred meters away in front of a 31-story dilapidated and abandoned building, Wang Zhifan pointed out the target for the four people behind him, saying that that was the destination of their trip.
“This building is so dilapidated! It looks like it was abandoned before it was fully built!”
The young man with dark circles was the first to complain. He found that this evil spirit building was different from what he imagined. The style of the painting is a little different. It is not the kind of eerie and ghostly building, but rather like an unfinished building that has been abandoned for many years without being truly completed.
"Where is the evil spirit? There are ghosts everywhere in this place, why is the evil spirit building so empty?"
The cold-faced female player also couldn't help but express doubts. She could open the door through the building in front of her. Part of the scene inside was seen through the door and various holes, but the strange thing was that there was not a trace of the ghosts that are very common in other places.
"Let's investigate according to the plan first."
Although Wang Zhifan also felt that the Evil Spirit Building looked a bit strange and did not fit its name, he was the first to obtain relevant information, so he was not too entangled. At this point, a clone was quickly sent to the building to start investigating.
The greasy-faced middle-aged man also quickly took out a scroll, used it to summon a mouse-like pet, and sent the little guy to the dilapidated building ahead.
As for the other three people, they can only wait patiently for the time being. They have no detection methods suitable for this situation.
Not long after, Wang Zhifan controlled his dream self clone and successfully entered the Evil Spirit Building. Based on the feedback from the clone, he found that the inside of the building was basically the same as what he saw from the outside. There seemed to be no ghosts on the outside. , only by continuing deeper will you find some evil spirits wandering in various rooms, but these ghosts are not strong in the perception of the clones, and they are all relatively ordinary things.
"This Evil Spirit Building is not worthy of its name... Isn't it a forbidden area? Just a few weak evil spirits wandering around in it can be classified as a forbidden area?"
After the preliminary investigation, Wang Zhifan felt doubts in his heart. More.
The greasy-faced middle-aged man on the other side who used his pet to investigate also came to a similar conclusion. He also detected the ghosts deep in the building, but the intensity of the other party made him doubt whether this place qualified as a forbidden area.
"I think there must be a very powerful ghost hiding in this building, or the building itself is a very powerful ghost. We must not take it lightly."
After a while, The greasy-faced middle-aged man who ended the investigation work because the little pet he sent out died gloriously in the line of duty concluded this way.
"Hmm... How about I use rockets to bomb this building? See if there is any special reaction from it?"
The young man with dark circles also had some ideas.
"Don't waste your efforts. This kind of thermal weapon has no effect on ghosts and monsters. We still have to find a way to find the real threat inside."
The short-haired woman is not optimistic about his proposal and hopes that everyone will Increase investigation efforts.
“Don’t worry, I’m still investigating.”
At this time, only Wang Zhifan was still investigating the situation. He patiently controlled his dream self and walked through the entire Evil Spirit Building, exploring from the six underground floors to the top of the building, confirming that the total number of evil spirits hidden inside was not actually the same. Although there were only a few, some stronger individuals appeared, but there was still no trace of the ghosts that could make him feel dangerous.
"Is it because Hell Academy is too weak that they think these ghosts are very strong, so they call this place a forbidden area? But in that case, why are all the teams annihilated when they enter?"
Wang Zhifan couldn't figure out what was going on for a while. He only felt that there must be something wrong with this so-called evil spirit building, but he couldn't figure out where the problem was for a while. At least he had sent clones to explore for so long and he didn't feel that there was anything inside. horrible.
“Everyone, it’s useless for us to stay outside and think. We still have to practice to gain true knowledge. Who is willing to go in with me to clean up the evil spirits?”
Finally, Wang Zhifan was ready to start work. Although he paid attention to the dangers of this place, it was not enough for him to delay completing the task.
