As the monster was dismbered, its blood was absorbed and devoured by the train, the remaining limbs quickly shriveled, as if all nutrients had been stripped away, and in no ti the flesh had completely lost its vitality, becoming jerky, and soon even the jerky began to crumble, eventually rging bit by bit into the ground.
In the blink of an eye, a bloody and bizarre corpse had been consud by the train.
However, after the monster died, two things were left from its flesh—a round pearl necklace and an erald gemstone ring.
These two pieces of jewelry seed very valuable, with a faint sheen erging in the dim train.
Li Yi was accustod to monsters dropping items in this world. He picked up the jewelry and examined it slightly, but found nothing special. Perhaps they could be sold to a shop in exchange for so gold coins.
Li Yi stored them in the Five Elents Bracelet, together with the gold mouse skins.
Then, he looked around the other passengers in this train car, wanting to see if any other monsters were disguised as humans. If there were, he wouldn’t mind cleaning them all up together.
But there were only three people in this train car.
Seeing Li Yi’s gaze sweep over them, they all stiffened in alarm, their faces showing anxiety, instinctively tensing up all over, even more than when facing the monster earlier, after all, the person in front of them was capable of producing a sonic boom with a flick of their wrist and easily taking out the monster.
Don’t be fooled by his appearance; he could very well be a terrifying evil object.
"Seems like you all are fine, good, then I don’t need to take action."
Li Yi felt the fear in their eyes and confird that these three were all human, then withdrew his gaze.
He then sat in the 64th position and gestured for Xuan Yuezi to sit as well.
Xuan Yuezi nodded slightly, her expression cold and aloof, not prone to smiling. After sitting down, she imdiately ford a spell with her fingers and closed her eyes to regulate her breath.
Earlier outside during the battle, her Dragon-subduing and Tiger-suppressing Skill was broken, she suffered a backlash and was slightly injured, needing to recover a bit. This world is very peculiar, with unknown formidable enemies lurking in the depths of darkness, and powerful creatures leaving behind their body remnants in those buildings, all these signs indicate that this world is not simple.
After sitting down, Li Yi beca leisurely. He looked at the parchnt map, which showed that he had boarded the train, but only this train car was illuminated on the map, while the other areas were shrouded in fog, revealing nothing.
Seems this map, worth twenty gold coins, has considerable limitations, unable to reveal everything.
At the mont.
Outside the old steam train, the dead souls and other evil objects that had been attracted by Li Yi and Xuan Yuezi began to scatter one after another, having lost their target and not daring to rush onto the train. Moreover, the nearby buildings had peculiar energy shielding, so these evil objects didn’t linger for long.
Once the evil objects had mostly dispersed, the train’s whistle sounded, and it started up again.
The train slowly advanced on the dark road; initially, its speed was relatively slow, but as ti passed, it gradually accelerated, eventually reaching a speed of over three hundred kiloters per hour, indistinguishable from a modern high-speed train.
But even at such a speed, it seed insignificant in the vast Dark World.
Moreover, the city buildings outside the window all looked the sa; you couldn’t tell from which building you ca.
This old steam train traveled without much pattern; sotis it moved forward, sotis it suddenly took a turn. When ti wore on, no one knew where the train had gone. People on the train only knew that they might never return to the familiar building in their lifeti.
Li Yi also realized this.
He thought it would be challenging to return to the initial building, as this world lacks signals; taking out a phone cannot connect to Lan Ji for satellite navigation.
However, he rembered the previous station.
If the train could return on the original route and stop at fixed stations, Li Yi wouldn’t need to worry so much. If it stops randomly, there’s a chance he’d get lost in this dark city.
"It feels like I’ve been tricked by that guy Yang Wei."
Li Yi had a feeling of being deceived, and this feeling was growing stronger.
But until now, he had no way back, capable only of moving forward step by step, since currently there was no way to catch a ride back.
Although the train was fast, it traveled very smoothly; watching the uniform buildings fly by outside the window gave the people on the train a drowsy feeling.
But in such an environnt, no one would dare to actually fall asleep.
Because the train wasn’t safe.
The previous monster was the best evidence, so this keeps everyone on the train alert, observing surroundings for any movent, fearing unknown dangers might suddenly appear.
Li Yi was leisurely as well. He took out the Taoist Skill Book from the Five Elents Bracelet and began flipping through it, taking the opportunity to learn so useful Tao skills.
The train car was unusually quiet at this mont, with no sound at all.
About an hour later, the train’s speed suddenly decreased; it looked like they were arriving at the next station, and it started slowing down in advance.
