Chapter 474 The Homecoming Train

A day later.

Qinghe District.

On the inter-district long-distance train to Dato City.

Because of a heavy snowfall, the windows of the train were covered with frost, but even through the vague fog, it was still clear that the train was crossing the blue river that runs through the Eastern Continent. The river has not been frozen. This big river runs from north to south, galloping endlessly. Even in the coldest season, it still maintains its vitality.

There was a relaxing symphony playing in the car and the heating was on.

It was peaceful.

A young waitress in a tutu pushes a dining cart past passengers.

“Sir, ma’am…it’s a free drink.”

Smiling waitresses, walking past one by one, stopped beside a young “couple” Footsteps, she looked at the young man and woman in surprise.

The eyes are mainly on the woman.

This is the first time she has seen such a beautiful girl. She should have just participated in an event like COSPLAY, and she is still wearing the red and white sacrificial clothes of the old era, as if she came out of a picture book. Goddess, that girl stared out the window intently, her eyes seemed to penetrate the mist in the distance and landed on the surface of the Qinghe River.

It’s just a silhouette, it’s so beautiful.

She gently shook the head, concentrated one’s mind, and when she leaned down to deliver the drink, she said warmly with a smile: “Two, can you discuss one thing, there will be a free one in ten minutes. I don’t know…”

Gu Shen glanced at the nameplate on the woman’s chest.

Eastern Continent.

I indifferently said: “I’m inviting you to the VIP room. If you don’t have anything to say, just say it outside the intercom channel.”

After taking the drink, I said , I extended the hand palm heavily.

means no action.

The headset that Eastern Continent was wearing in his ear landed on Ling Wei’s palm.

“Hello.”

Ling Wei spoke loudly and said, “The serial number is V340011250001, your surname is Gu.”

This side of the intercom channel The voice suddenly fell silent.

Obviously surprised.

“Thank you, Sealed Artifact!”

A grateful voice came from outside the channel, this is a passionate and powerless young man: “Although I know your identity, [Deep Sea] provided information that there are no transcenders under that train, you may need your help.”

Laughed.

I looked up at Eastern Continent, indicating that you can leave, the former tidied up his clothes, pretended that something had happened, and continued to walk backwards, playing the role of “train attendant”.

The voice on the intercom channel sounds familiar.

Now my identity file is indeed “low-secret”. In Nagano Castle, except for the Seven Little House Elder Council who can obtain some of its own file information, I know nothing about it.

That is to say.

On that trip, Ling Wei went to a certain area of Wang Wan, only a few people knew about it.

The insiders of the eight institutes who have no [Deep Sea] authority can at least know… No transcender from the system has arrived here, and the reason why there is no coordinate display is actually to deal with the emergency. of emergencies.

In those few years, Eight had to face fewer and fewer containment tasks.

Maybe it’s because there are fewer and fewer cases of “orderly collapse”…and the probability of a runaway event asking for help is getting smaller and smaller.

At that time, [Deep Sea] would be a good thing if it detects that a certain file is a Ming system personnel.

In most cases, it is a “low-level transcender”.

“The Sealed Artifact…”

The voice outside the intercom channel was not worried, “You have encountered an urgent and urgent task, and the [Deep Sea] rating may reach B-, I know if you can help me?”

Ling Wei’s voice is too old.

That is really worrying, the “low-level transcender coordinates” displayed under the [Deep Sea] map will be a misunderstanding, because only low-level transcenders will be hidden files. Technicians with no huge contribution from the federal government will also enjoy that treatment.

“Let’s hear it, I’m sure you can help me.”

Ling Wei said with a smile, I glanced at the time: “There are still 3 minutes, the train will Stopped at the stop.”

The voice on the duel channel suddenly slowed down.

“[Deep Water District] file number C038712, you can check this file by yourself. It was a containment mission of Mr. Gu that was out of control, and it had already been completed. The prison commissioner responsible for the containment was named ‘Zhou Xiao’ , just ten minutes later, [Deep Sea] issued a warning, reminding you that ‘Zhou Xiao’ may have been out of control.”

The numbering rules of the files inside the Eighth Institute are very complicated. The number at the beginning is C, which means the task Only with a rating of C.

It is very likely that the out-of-control Wang Wanqiao was overestimated, or the containment specialist made a mistake, causing his own mental out of control.

So…the safety factor has been lowered, from C-Rank to B-?

Ling Wei raised her head slightly and looked into the distance. Although she kept smiling, the Eastern Continent with a tight posture, the man’s spirit strength level was probably around the 8-Layer in the deep water zone, and he was still in the first stage.

There are no two transcenders under the train, but they are all at the same level as Eastern Continent.

That kind of strength is indeed enough to deal with naive fighters, and we just thought it was abnormal when we received the urgent notification from [Deep Sea].

“This Wang Wanqiao’s name is ‘Ghost Veil’.”

Chu Ling, who had been sitting by the window and looked at the river view from the window, spoke loudly , “The wearer’s spirit strength will get a very small increase, but it will also increase the probability of losing control. According to the rules of the containment mission, it only needs to be suppressed with weak logic materials, and the mission is completed.”

Ling Wei sighed heavily.

About understand the reason for the task upgrade.

This mission commissioner must have regressed to wear it in violation of the mission manual, causing him to lose control of his mind… It happened immediately after [Deep Water Area].

“His…hiss…”

As the train arrived at the station smoothly, the sound of the headset became quiet and could be heard.

Ling Wei picked up the headset.

I turned my head in a hurry… My gaze penetrated the carriage and looked at a boarding gate before the two carriages.

A low-rise woman in a white suit, pressing her high hat, got off the train. Before I got close to the train, a strange force spread and interrupted [Deep Sea] stable link.

A few passengers were surprised to find that…the network connection signal became very poor.

……

……

“Hello…Hello?!”

Koto City, Command Center.

Gu Shen had a livid expression and pressed his hands on the main console.

The [Deep Sea] link is actually broken… That sudden occurrence may be more than I imagined. With Zhou Xiao’s recorded strength, it may affect the [Deep Sea] link, then At most, the Transcender of the Eighth Rank segment can have the power that is not available.

That’s…Strength of Domain.

The several transcender commissioners who were originally responsible for the handover under the train are all first-stage transcenders. If Zhou Xiao really has no “domain”, then we are Zhou Xiao’s opponents…

“Mr. Gu Shen, the villain Wei Shu from the Fourth Layer in the deep water area has rushed to the site…”

A commander next to Wang Wan said in surprise: “Without the villain Wei Shu, B -Rank’s out-of-control mission must be a problem!”

“Wang Wan actually able to find time? It’s just…you’re worried that I’ll catch up.”

That is indeed a meaning Li Zhixi was happy, but Wang Wan didn’t look nervous. I stared at the screen, clenching one’s teeth and said: “You quickly asked a ‘low-level transcender’ under the car for help… This sealed artifact belongs to the eight systems. The weak inside, now you can only pin your hopes on me.”

“Gu?”

The commander astonished: “That’s a small surname…”

The first home in Jiangbei Nagano.

It’s just that I laughed bitterly, what does the surname Gu represent.

There are too few Yan officials with the surname Gu, it is because everyone has nothing to do with the Gu family, go 10,000 steps… If they are really the Gu family, how could they come to Xiaoteng City, Qinghe District kind of place?

“Don’t have the expectation that nothing should be nothing, I have a small probability of being a family member.”

Wang Wan said fiercely: “You now hope that I am a technician, At the most, I can contribute to the upcoming battle and drag it until Wei Shu arrives…”

Speaking of that, paused.

Wang Wan frowned and muttered: “It’s just, you know why, you always think that guy’s voice is a little familiar.”

……

……

Zhou Xiao brushed off the water under his backpack.

I put away my umbrella, boarded the train, and walked in a roundabout way toward the tail section of the train.

There is no turning back.

I need to look back… I can also know that in front of me, there are no eight-year-old transcenders in prisons who are following me.

That’s it… Zhou Xiao went all the way to the front car of the train, the car was empty and there was no one there, that was the originally planned “handover car”, C-Rank Mr. Gu ” The handover quest for the “Ghost Veil” will retreat here.

And now.

Zhou Xiao hurriedly sat up, with his back against the tail wall of the train.

I stared fiercely at the eight people who opened the door of the carriage, raised Qilang’s legs, and said friendly with a smile: “Are all eight colleagues from the Koto City Prison, this is the first time we met. , the face is very good, the first time to perform a mission?”

The eight-year-old man, two women and one man…the breath under his body.

Yeah.

Very strong, Eighth Layer, Seventh Layer, Eighth Layer.

Almost can be ignored.

“Actually, it’s the seventh time…”

Wang Wan took the lead and opened his mouth with a smile.

“Commissioner Zhou Xiao, you are in charge of the docking mission of the ‘Ghost Veil’, do you know if the containment mission is going well?”

We have already received the warning of [Deep Sea] with a delay, and we know that The latter Zhou Xiao is a low-risk element.

The psychological quality of the eight-year-old is still wrong. At that juncture, whether there is any panic, but to maintain a dialogue with Zhou Xiao, for us, the most important task at the moment is to delay time… …There is no low-level transcender under the car, and the weak sent by the Koto City headquarters should also be on the way.

“It’s still…wrong?”

Zhou Xiao also laughed.

I tilted my head slightly, looked at Eastern Continent, and narrowed my eyes.

Eastern Continent is too comfortable to be seen by that look.

I always feel…that gaze seems to have condensed into substance, that guy’s gaze is sharper than the blade of a knife, and even if he is stared at, there is no sharp stinging sensation!

You take a conscious step forward.

And when that came in—

“His!”

A blade-like tearing sound actually sounded in the air. The suspender of the skirt suddenly broke and turned into two pieces, and a long bloody mouth was pulled out from your snow-white shoulder.

That scene… made the eight prison officers pupil shrink.

“Don’t move…”

“Don’t move.”

Zhou Xiao said with a smile: “Yes, you promise… Life and death, everyone.”

The train entered the tunnel.

The lights suddenly dimmed, and this strange force emerged again. The first carriage was plunged into white darkness, and it was in the white darkness that Eastern Continent saw… When, covered with densely packed slender threads.

“Then…?!”

Eastern Continent consciously wanted to turn his head, but his cheek was cut.

A string of blood beads just condensed under the long line, trembling and hanging in the air.

You look shocked, no longer dare to move.

Zhou Xiao, who was sitting cross-legged at the end of the carriage with Qilang’s legs crossed, extended the hand with a smile.

I rhythmically moved my fingers, and the few blood beads under Eastern Continent’s cheeks swept up along the silk thread that was erected overhead in the carriage… and finally came under the fingertips.

Zhou Xiao stuck out the tip of his tongue heavily, tasting the blood.

I showed a look of enjoyment.

Well…the sweet virgin blood, last moment, I moved my fingers again, the silver light in the dimmed car flashed away, the silk thread wiped one side of Eastern Continent’s cheek again, and then a few drops of blood, along the silk thread , came to my fingertips.

At the moment when the silk thread was flashing, the sound of heavy tunes resounded in the carriage as elegant as a piano.

And Zhou Xiao, the musician who played the Sonata of Blood, enjoyed Earth Grade taste the blood of the scarlet virgin, I licked my fingers and let out a long, comfortable sigh.

“You advised him to retire.”

Zhou Xiao took off his suit and hat and suddenly spoke.

In that carriage, with or without me, the eight commissioners felt a tiny oppression.

We know who Zhou Xiao was speaking to.

The automatic sensor door is tightly closed at the connection of the carriage.

Eastern Continent did not look back, but vaguely felt… There was no one standing in front of him. In the shadow of the tunnel, the person in front of him seemed to be a silhouette that was even darker than white. .

Like, shadow.

Do you even believe that it was you who had an illusion and that the “low-level transcender” under the carriage made the move?

In hindsight, [Deep Sea]’s description of Zhou Xiao is correct, that is a transcender who has no “domain ability”, and his real strength may have reached the Eighth Rank… The one under the carriage Can an old man really handle it?

“As soon as he retreats, you will kill eight of us…”

Zhou Xiao licked his fingers warmly and said understatement: “In In an instant, I doubt you, you don’t have that strength.”

The interior of the carriage was dead silent.

Zhou Xiao finished licking his fingers and nodded with satisfaction. Contrary to what Eastern Continent expected, Zhou Xiao turned his eyes to the front of his own back, but looked directly under the top of my head, and said heavily. said with a smile: “It seems that they care about the lives of those eight-year-olds.”

A high-pitched young voice came from below the carriage.

“You can talk about what you want.”

Zhou Xiao raised his eyebrows.

“You want very little.”

Waiting for me to finish.

The young man under the carriage said fiercely: “You can satisfy him.”

Before Zhou Xiao heard this, his expression became very hot, I just opened the mouth and said: “Who is he? Why do you doubt him?”

“Your surname is Yan, and you have one official character.”

Wei Shu’s name fell on the ears of the eight people in the carriage , is the good news of Tian Xiao!

That’s one of the weakest transcenders in Koto.

Eight transcenders who are deeply immersed in the field of silk thread are only close to tears.

Eastern Continent feels… The villain Wang Wan was present in person, and his eight people had already been saved.

A smile appeared on Zhou Xiao’s face.

I spread my arms, looked up at the ceiling, and said softly with a smile: “It turned out to be the son of the presiding judge of Qinghe District. You… can really talk about it.”
