Capítulo 598: Chapter 520: Talent
The stone platform is adjacent to the estuary, where the terrain is flat and open, with lush water plants, and the silt-laden river water flows into the ocean, creating a scene where yellow ets blue.
Buzz—
The dense clusters of reeds blaze fiercely, the towering flas illuminating Li Cheng’s figure through the train glass.
It’s been a full three minutes since the train arrived at the station,
At this mont, he is sitting in the ninth car, switched to the three-ter-tall Insect Transformation Form, with a Steel Banner Spear embedded in his right arm like a sleeve sword, and Hidden Backup Energy installed beneath his back armor, showing a remaining battery level of 10%.
The Insect Armor is damaged in many places, the Ape-man Degeneration Gun is empty, and the White Fox Demon, Frog God, and Six-ard Snake Demon summoned from the Heat Death Corridor have all died once, their bodies lying in the damp sand under the platform, slowly dissipating, returning to the Heat Death Corridor.
Besides him, the rest of the Transcendents are also sitting in the carriage.
The White Horse Tombstone’s Qi Power is exhausted, Reyes’s tattoo ink has dried up, Claudia has degenerated into Bat Form again, and Wanli Sealed Blade has changed into new clothes, painfully caressing the Dragon Slayer Sword now with several gaps.
At the other end of the carriage, one of Mushroom King’s machetes has been scrapped, its body shrunk to resemble the Scaredy-shroom from Plants vs. Zombies. The Hundred-legged Octopus in the fish tank has exhausted its Spiritual Power and is floating weakly at the water’s surface.
Rabbit Ranger Mian Yue’s arrow quiver is already empty, and sitting beside her, the Griffin has inexplicably lost several feathers from its neck—Mian Yue pulled out eagle feathers to use as one-off short arrows, after exhausting all her arrows.
This can be considered a newly discovered chanism of the Eternal Life Field, where voluntarily separated body parts of passengers aren’t restored by the field.
The reason is simple, if a passenger wants to clip a nail it’s okay, but what if a passenger wants to go to the toilet and the stomach contents are deed part of their body…
That scene is too beautiful to imagine.
In short, the two groups of Transcendents, and the astronaut as the quest item [Annihilation Device], are seated in the front and back rows of the carriage, surrounding the Skull Knight who was originally in the ninth carriage.
Or rather, they actively sought refuge in the Skull Knight’s “territory.”
Rewind the ti three minutes back, players from two Main Universe worlds were guarding the front and back of the train, intending to stall like before, waiting for the train to restart.
But, the Alpha Python is not like the Gray Rain: a disgrace among smart chanical beings who didn’t even graduate middle school. It quickly grasped the operation chanism and utilization thod of the Eternal Life Field based on the players’ behavior patterns,
whenever a Transcendent uses their ultimate ans to cause damage, it would approach the train to instantly recover, even if players intend to exchange blows.
As for competing in consumption, it’s as absurd as a eunuch visiting a brothel—nonsense,
Alpha is equipped with a nuclear fusion engine, energy is virtually infinite, the electricity ter would reverse.
In the internet cafe, the five consecutive seatings grew increasingly silent,
When the ti reached two and a half minutes, after dying dozens of tis, and depending solely on the Eternal Life Field to stay alive, both parties of players coincidentally squeezed into the ninth carriage where the Skull Knight was located.
And it did indeed work.
The dense chanical arms tightly blocked the carriage doors from both ends, each arm ending in honeycomb-shaped hexagonal nozzles, ready to fire streams of superheated plasma.
The Skull Knight remained silent, stood up all of a sudden, and all the players in the carriage stood up simultaneously.
The chanical arm at the direction of the train’s engine was forcibly pushed aside, and the beverage cart arrived steadily.
The Skull Knight took a cup of grape-colored purple flowing gas from the beverage cart, returned to his seat, sipping it quietly.
It is unknown what biological structure exists beneath the dark armor, as the purple gas poured into the opened esophagus, making a refreshing sound of bubbles popping.
Just right, considerable Energy was consud as well, Li Cheng reached out to the beverage cart, and before touching it, the latter proactively offered a cup of tree sap mixed with high-concentration cream and honey.
Uh… because I’m an insect, they’re giving tree sap? What if I were a robot, would they give concentrated uranium?
Radiate to the fullest, Aricium business, radiation all the way.
Li Cheng silently accepted the tree sap drink, sipping away.
At this ti, the front and rear carriage doors closed slowly, the Alpha Python retracted all chanical arms, watching the Green Train restart and warp out of the place.
This is not the end, not even the beginning of the end. Ten minutes after the train warped to a wasteland, those two eye-like bright searchlights lit up again from far behind.
“Hehehehe.”
Wanli Sealed Blade suddenly laughed with relief, super large in size, infinite energy, non-stop lasers, ultra-long-range teleportation, unfathomable health. Even damn online ga planners wouldn’t dare to put this thing in a ga.
What else to say, just surrender directly.
All other players looked deathlike, the Hundred-legged Octopus used its remaining Telekinesis to manipulate the water to form a triangle symbol towards the sky—this should an flipping the bird in their world.
Clatter.
The Skull Knight set down an inexplicably vintage enal tea cup, stood to walk to the door, and cut in before Li Cheng said: “My friend’s friend is not my friend, hence I won’t assist the chanical life just because you know the Reindeer.”
I haven’t even said anything yet.
Li Cheng scratched his head, his nails scraping against the chitin armor, striking sparks, tentatively asked: “How about we pay a little reward?”
He decisively opened the Three-dinsional Warehouse, pulling out countless tags still intact rchandise, including but not limited to calcium supplent bone strengthening powder for children, body check X-ray machines, horse feed, and two large boxes of blue and yellow-colored WD-40 multi-purpose lubricant.
“I get the body check X-ray machine, used for mass-producing bone-exposing photos.”
Wanli Sealed Blade gradually understood Li Cheng’s thought process, and quietly asked: “What’s the lubricant for then.”
“Wouldn’t get it, this stuff is the Arican equivalent of Indian oil, originally produced by the United States missile chemicals RCC company, used to decontaminate missiles, only to find its effects overly broad during use, waterproof, lubricating, dehumidifying, anti-rust, cleaning, noise reduction,
Uses include but not limited to firearms and rocket maintenance, furniture appliance repair, car care, pet grooming, cri scene cleanup. Truly an essential dicine for ho travel, killing and silencing.”
Li Cheng spoke using the tone of a live broadcast sales pitch: “The elderly in the community downstairs, generally have bone joint inflammation, rheumatoid and shoulder arthritis, not even dancing at the square, I sprayed them a little WD-40 magic oil, imdiate improvent, now are dancing in the community square before dawn.”
Wanli Sealed Blade subconsciously remarked: “Are the elderly in your community Cybertronians? No wait, should be criticizing why you’re supporting square dancing disturbing residents, too unethical. Copy the ‘Noise Pollution Prevention Act’ one hundred tis, one hundred tis.”
The Griffin doesn’t know what the ‘Noise Pollution Prevention Act’ is, silently thought: “This Skeleton’s aura is unfathomable, its sword swing is profoundly mysterious, has reached Illusion Realm. How could ordinary things bribe it damn it really did!”
Only to see the Skull Knight pause montarily, received the Bone Strengthening Powder, X-ray machine, and horse feed passed by Li Cheng, flipped his palm, storing these things into Pocket Space, then indifferently said: “I shall disembark at this station, I can help you stall the chanical life for 5 minutes.
200 kiloters east of the platform, there’s a killing field safe zone similar to your human slum.
But requires native species of the killing field to qualify for activation.”
“Uh… not a native species of the killing field, but can a bachelor’s degree work?”
Li Cheng pulled out a recently baked foreign bachelor’s degree talent introduction visa from the warehouse, “I too can negotiate, I too can love the killing field.”
“…”
The Skull Knight remained silent, the clear transmission from the hollow eye sockets suggested worth inspection of the talent.
“Then forget it.”
Li Cheng awkwardly put away the visa, thought about the Entropy Devouring Cloud preserved in the Heat Death Corridor, that should be a hundred percent killing field native species…right?
Train slowly decelerating to a stop, door opening, accompanied by the clattering vibration of armor, Skeleton Knight stepping out of the carriage, a slash of Space Cutting, severing a thermal ray rushing from afar.
Like Moses parting the sea, the searing strong light divided into two, entering the soil on both sides of the train, scorching various colored glass.
Skeleton Knight stood with sword propped, spoke without looking back: “You have four minutes and fifty-seven seconds left. Now, run.”
