Chapter 442 Refining
Gilan’s consciousness returned to himself after a moment of trance.
哐哐……
哐哷……
The rhythmic sound of the train was ringing in my ears, and there was a corresponding vibration under my feet.
A gust of wind blew in my face from the car window, bringing with it a bit of coolness, carrying the unique fragrance of plants and the astringent smell of earth.
Jilan looked up and saw a scene inside the VIP compartment of the train. Wooden benches, red leather, carved ceilings, and beautiful wall lamps.
Twelve familiar figures are sitting in their respective seats, either in a daze, reading, eating snacks, or playing with cameras...
For this familiar scene, Gillan couldn't help but sigh.
At the beginning of the time travel, he was forced to watch this film in the basement of the Mangrove Street Police Station and experienced a narrow escape from death.
Now when I return to this film, I have a completely different mentality.
He glanced around again and found that there was no other stranger besides himself.
‘It seems that I was the first to enter the film. ’
Jilan secretly said.
There are some small details in the rules of this gambling battle, such as the representatives of the six forces not entering the film at the same time.
As for the order, no one knows.
Except Sasha as the referee.
Sending Jilan in first is a kind of favoritism within the rules... Of course, Jilan, as the only one member of the team in this gambling battle, is regarded as a "weak" and will be treated accordingly. The subsidies are also reasonable.
‘So, which protagonist should you choose? ’
Gilan looked at the seat in front of him.
Passed by doctors, journalists, boxers, gangsters, actresses, travelers, folklorists and more.
He knew very well that the story told in this film was actually a large-scale sacrificial ceremony organized by the evil secret sect "Crescent Moon Society" and directed to the old god "Moon God".
The twelve selected protagonists each represent a path of Si Chen. By fighting each other, they will tarnish and hinder the ascension of the "torrent" of Si Chen in January.
However, the final result failed.
In the original plot, the last survivor is the "girl" Maiev Martieri who is a folklorist.
Not only did she survive, she was brought back to the capital by Paracelsus, who rescued her, and was trained to become an outstanding member of the investigative committee.
But this time the gambling fight will definitely not develop according to the original plot, because there are six more variables. Moreover, the intervention of these six parties is extremely strong, and they are all powerful Kusei, which greatly exceeds the difficulty of the original plot.
It can be said that the monsters and dangers that appeared in the original plot are nothing to them.
Gilan's thoughts flashed, and his eyes finally locked on the front row of seats, falling on the girl with long red hair and wearing denim overalls.
‘Lilia Enge, a 19-year-old mechanical engineering student. ’
The other party's message flashed in Gillan's mind.
‘At the same time, she also has another identity, that is, the biological sister of January Sichen "Torrent" Barbara Eng. '
'But in the plot, Lilia will be coaxed into a room and eaten by the "Windmill Cat" hidden in the museum masquerade...'
Gilan clearly remembers that at that time He came into contact with Lilia without knowing it.
But after the film ended, January Sichen received a "torrent" of warnings passing through the film screen.
He actually understands.
Real film is just a recording and processing of history. In fact, Lilia has been dead for many years.
Although Barbara has been promoted to Si Chen, she still has deep feelings for her sister... Even Lilia in the film, she still regards her as a treasure and does not allow outsiders to approach or desecrate her.
This is like an old photo of a loved one that will not be trampled or spat on by outsiders.
But Jilan wanted to take this opportunity to try.
He knew that even if he saved Lilia, he probably wouldn't be able to change the established reality and he wouldn't be able to resurrect the girl who had been eaten by the "Windmill Cat".
The particularity of "Bailan" seems to only target the memory of the individual in the film, allowing the other party to remember him, rather than changing history.
But the act of protecting Lilia can be regarded as a gesture of goodwill towards January Sichen's "flood".
What Jilan wanted to try was Si Chen's attitude.
Behind the birth of "Torrent", there are many unknown secrets... It can be said that it was the "Crane King" who spared no effort to promote it that created him.
Therefore, Yiyue Sichen is definitely in the "Crippled King" camp, and Jilan is definitely one of his own.
This is why he dared to give it a try.
Thinking to myself, the train suddenly sounded its whistle:
Woo——
Soon, the train slowly stopped in the forest.
With a burst of uproar, Gillan knew that the plot had begun.
After the old man in black clothes took the lead in asking questions, the red-haired female student Lilia stood up and said to go to the front to ask the flight attendant.
"I'll go with you, miss."
Ji Lanju stood up with a cane and held up his hat.
Lilia was startled, then smiled sweetly.
"Thank you, sir."
Gilan strode forward from the aisle, and then reached the front car with the female student.
However, the entire train has already been affected by an unknown force, causing all passengers except the twelve protagonists to evaporate and disappear without a trace.
Lilia was surprised and felt nervous at the same time. Fortunately, Ji Lan comforted her a few words in time, which alleviated her fear a little.
After the two returned to the original carriage and informed everyone about the incident, there was an uproar.
After a period of uncertainty, three men, the fat businessman, the boxer and the veteran, took the initiative to confirm.
But they quickly returned and said that the female student and Gillan did not lie.
Everyone was panicked. Everyone did not dare to sit any longer, opened the carriage door one after another, got out of the car, and gathered in the open space to discuss countermeasures.
Lilia still went to the boiler room to check the cause of the train failure and tried to repair it as in the original plot. But just halfway through, everyone was attacked by a pack of headless wolves.
A fierce fight broke out in the open space next to the train.
Lilia was startled by the screams and roars. She leaned to the car window and saw those ferocious monsters with her own eyes, her face turned pale.
"How...how could this happen?!"
"Miss Lilia, run away."
Gilan pretended to be solemn and suggested in a deep voice.
Without waiting for the red-haired female student to respond, he had already pulled her out of the boiler room and jumped off the train.
At this time, the remaining passengers had formed small groups of twos and threes and fled in all directions.
Without saying a word, Gilan pulled Lilia and ran along the track.
Although there were several tribute wolves eyeing the two of them, due to Jilan's extraordinary physique, they were unable to catch up and had to stay behind.
Lilia felt that it was difficult to breathe, and the strong wind in front of her made her unable to open her eyes.
"Ah! Ah!" she screamed at the top of her lungs.
There is no feeling in my legs. Although I am running, I cannot step on the ground at all. The whole figure seemed to be flying into the air, being carried by the purple-eyed young man beside him like a doll with one hand.
I don’t know how much time has passed.
It wasn’t until Gilan stopped at the edge of a deserted forest that Lilia flopped to the ground.
She was breathing heavily, her heartbeat was pounding, her red hair was a mess, and the left shoulder strap of her overalls had slipped down.
"Hoo! Hoo!!" Lilia opened her mouth wide, her face turned pale, and her eyes were full of disbelief when she looked at Jilan.
After such a violent run, the purple-eyed young man in front of him was as calm as ever, as if he was just taking a leisurely stroll in the courtyard.
“Miss Lilia, you don’t have to look at me like that.”
Gilan pinched the brim of his hat and smiled gracefully.
“As we all know, people’s physiques are different. In the case of extreme panic, it is very reasonable for me to explode my potential and run for several kilometers while carrying a little girl.”
"Gulu." Lilia swallowed hard, feeling tens of thousands of disbeliefs in her heart.
This man doesn’t even blink when he brags!
“Oh, that’s right!” Gilan seemed to have remembered something, and nodded his head with an annoyed expression.
"I was so scared just now that I forgot to take my luggage when I ran away... Miss Lilia, wait here for a moment, I will be back soon."
As he said that, he turned around and went back. Walk.
Lilia's eyes widened, she controlled her rapid breathing, and said loudly:
"Mr. Gillan! Don't go back! There are monsters there!"
However, the young man turned a deaf ear, and gradually Walking further and further away.
The reason why Ji Lan wants to go back is not because he wants to pay tribute to the wolves for the little bit of mysterious energy. After all, he had already been corrupted once during the previous movie viewing, and there was no point in killing him again.
But because, when he just left, "Meili" made some changes to the train.
This kind of change is different from the past.
It felt to Jilan that that train was extremely special... but he was too weak before to notice it.
‘Why exactly? ’
Gilan was puzzled.
His expression was as usual and his pace quickened.
His body is upright and he looks like he is walking, but his actual speed is several times faster than an ordinary person running at full speed.
Blinking, a blurry afterimage flashed.
A strong wind blew along the way.
When he returned to the stationed train, he found that the remaining eleven passengers had already fled, leaving a mess on the spot.
There were three or four large headless tribute wolves wandering in the forest. When they noticed Jilan's arrival, a swarm of bees jumped out from behind the trees and rushed towards him, trying to tear him into pieces.
Ji Lan danced with a wand and flicked it.
Countless silver light spots are flying everywhere.
The three or four headless monsters that attacked jumped into the air. The moment they were passed by the silver light, their bodies froze, and then they crossed an arc and fell straight to the ground.
Thumping a few times, there was no movement.
A large amount of smelly blood oozed out from under his body.
If you look closely, you will find that their bodies are riddled with holes.
Without even looking at it, Ji Lan walked past the wolf corpse and walked straight to the front of the train.
Raise your head and take a look.
The locomotive is three to four meters high and is in the shape of a horizontal cylinder with an iron-gray appearance. There is also a huge round searchlight directly in front, with a chimney at the top.
There is a trapezoidal metal fence with guardrails and slopes under the front of the car. It is quite thick and seems to have strong protective properties, as well as the function of shoveling track garbage.
Being so close, Jilan could feel that the changes in "Bailan" were even stronger.
Jilan took a deep breath, raised his right hand, and placed it on the metal shell of the locomotive.
"Lian!" He shouted in a deep voice.
Crack! ! !
Dazzling silver arcs jumped from his palms and spread all over the front of the car.
There was a loud bang.
The entire front of the car disappeared.
