The train arrived at the twenty-fourth station.
Lu Ji got off the car first.
He was tall and slender, wearing a loose black trench coat. Every step he took was big and firm, giving people an impression of being resolute and swift. The players behind him stared at his back, and vaguely thought that the person in front of him was not a girl, but a thin man.
"This back view is amazing!" someone whispered, "If it weren't for the long hair, I would have thought it was a man."
"The black long trench coat is suitable for both men and women. It looks really good on the boss."
A female player asked unhappily: "What do you mean? Can't girls have such a cool and handsome back view?"
"No, no, no, I'm just expressing my feelings. After all, many men can't match your height."
"That's because you men are short. What does it have to do with me?"
"Sister Ji is so beautiful."
"… "
The call of "Sister Ji" shocked everyone. They looked at the sister who called "Sister Ji" as if they were looking at a warrior.
The female player said unconvincedly, "What are you looking at? Sister Ji looks like a young girl who has just come of age. We are all the same age, so it's okay to call her Sister Ji. Besides... seeing Sister Ji like this, I don't believe you won't be moved."
Humans all admire the strong, not to mention that when players enter the game world to complete missions, it is like walking on sharp knives, which makes them yearn for strength and power even more.
There is no doubt that Lu Ji's strength and composure made them in awe and fascinated by him.
Chai Yingying could understand their feelings very well.
When I first met Lu Ji at the "Spiritual Resentment Hotel", my first impression was that she was a taciturn, gloomy and cold little girl, like Gu Jiu's follower. She would secretly show joy for Gu Jiu's unintentional glance, and her heart was tied to Gu Jiu's eldest daughter. Anyone with eyes could feel how well-behaved and caring he was to Gu Jiu.
If this isn’t love, then what is
Maybe it was because of the presence of Gu Jiu, the radiant young lady, who was charging in the front, so Lu Ji could hide behind Gu Jiu and rely on her silently. Gu Jiu would lead them through the levels, and Lu Ji didn't need to perform at all.
Now that Gu Jiu is not here, Lu Ji can only rely on himself.
Without Gu Jiu standing in front of him, Lu Ji could no longer remain silent and hide. His brilliance and strength could no longer be blocked, making people feel nervous.
Chai Yingying touched her heart and told herself that she was a straight woman. She only liked men and had no interest in women.
But when Lu Ji looked over, that cold and ruthless look, even though she knew it meant nothing, still made her heart beat uncontrollably. She was really worried that she would be turned into a lesbian.
That’s what she said. How could anyone who didn’t have any skills possibly turn a young lady like Gu Jiu, who was so arrogant and confident, into a lesbian
Only a guy like Lu Ji, who can be both sweet and salty, can turn that young lady into a lesbian.
Lu Ji searched all twenty-four stations and killed the deformed man who was hiding in the dark and attacking him with one sword.
The deformed man's body was separated, but he was still alive. His pair of cloudy blue eyes stared at them steadily, making the players feel a chill down their spines. Then, Lu Ji left.
"Hey, just leave it like this?" Chai Yingying pointed at the deformed man.
Lu Ji frowned, "If I can't kill him, what else can I do?"
That’s true!
The longer players stay on the Death Train, the more they understand the characteristics of the ghosts and monsters here. The stronger they are, the harder they are to kill, and they can almost be said to be immortal.
But nothing in the world is unkillable. Maybe they haven't found a way to kill these monsters.
Chai Yingying intuitively felt that the life and death of these monsters were related to the clues to passing the level, but unfortunately she still had no clue.
After leaving station 24, they took a bus to station 23.
Seeing Lu Ji standing in front of the car door, facing the window and looking at the dark track outside, Chai Yingying couldn't help but move over to him.
"Lu Ji, do you have any clues?"
"No!"
Chai Yingying: "... You are so capable, but you didn't find any clues?"
Lu Ji said nonchalantly: "I'm not good at reasoning. After you find Ajiu, you can share the information you found with Ajiu."
Chai Yingying looked at him expressionlessly, "Do you feel embarrassed when you say this?"
Lu Ji looked at her in confusion. Why was he blushing? He really had no clues and knew nothing about the truth of this death train.
Although he can disguise himself as a player and enter the game world, he is subject to more restrictions than normal players.
First, he cannot use power beyond what the game world can withstand. Otherwise, once the game world collapses and is destroyed, he will not be able to recover the contaminated fragments of rules. He must suppress his power within a certain range. Secondly, after he chooses to enter the game world, he will be blinded by the rules and will be no different from the players around him. He must figure out the truth of the world on his own. Finally, he is not a real player after all. The clues provided to players by the game world will not be provided to him at all.
Just like every time he entered the game world, players could buy life-saving items in the system mall, but he was not eligible.
After leaving the game world, the player can purchase items generated by the rules of the game world, but he is still not eligible to purchase them.
That's the gap.
If he had not met Gu Jiu and had not used Gu Jiu as a cover to team up with her to enter the game world, I am afraid that he would not be so comfortable in the game world, and sooner or later he would be discovered by the demigods in the scattered areas and then obstructed.
He roughly understood what the demigods in the Scattered Zone were thinking, but he was too lazy to deal with them, let alone face a group of demigods who wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible.
Chai Yingying realized that he was serious and felt mixed emotions.
She sighed, "Lu Ji, Master Lu, your strength is obvious to all. With your strength, nothing can defeat you. You don't have to be too self-deprecating."
So you really don't have to rely on the eldest daughter for everything. Is it good to live off the eldest daughter so blatantly
Lu Ji looked at her in surprise, "I'm not underestimating myself."
Chai Yingying: "Then why don't you take the initiative to look for clues?"
"I'm not good at it, but this Ajiu is."
Chai Yingying: “…”
Chai Yingying was helpless when she found out that this guy really thought he was not good at finding clues and only wanted to be a gigolo for Gu Jiu. She thought to herself that maybe this was the hobby of powerful guys and they liked to be willful. What could she say
They started at stop 25 and went back one stop at a time.
At every stop, Lu Ji led the way. Although the others also wanted to show that they were not so incompetent, they were unfortunately left behind by Lu Ji.
If they got injured again, they would have to find time to rest. Lu Ji didn't like to waste time on resting.
He made up his mind to take Chai Yingying and the others to find Gu Jiu. Then this group of people would be able to help Gu Jiu. Whether they were followers or thugs, they would be able to make things easier for her.
Chai Yingying didn't know yet that Lu Ji treated them as the eldest lady's reserve followers and thugs, and she was still quite touched by his behavior of protecting them.
The train arrived at station eighteen.
Station 18 is very quiet and has a good environment. It is not as bloody as other stations, and it is obvious that many deaths have occurred there.
As soon as Lu Ji got off the car, he keenly noticed the presence of the little paper man.
Two little paper figures walked out from the shadow behind the lounge chair by the wall, ran towards Lu Ji quickly, then grabbed his feet and climbed up.
Lu Ji stretched out his hand and let them crawl onto his hand.
He looked at the back of the little paper man, where there was a line of small words left by Gu Jiu.
In the game world, most players cannot use communication tools and can only communicate in this way.
Chai Yingying and others looked at the little paper figure in his hand in amazement.
"Has the eldest lady been here?" Although Chai Yingying asked in a questioning tone, she was very sure in her heart.
Lu Ji nodded, and when he saw the two little paper figures, his cold eyes became much gentler. Seeing him suddenly transform from a cold and cruel beautiful, strong and miserable "girl", everyone present felt the greatness of love.
They had heard from Chai Yingying that he liked a young lady named "Gu Jiu", and they all secretly followed suit and called her "Young Miss".
There was nothing they could do about it. This big guy just liked to hear them call Gu Jiu "Miss". Even Chai Yingying changed her name to "Miss", so naturally they had to fit in.
Chai Yingying glanced at a line of black words on the back of the little paper man: 18:30-8:00.
"What does this mean?" she asked in confusion. It looked like a time record.
Lu Ji said: "Ajiu means that she came to Station 18 to rest at 18:30 yesterday and left at 8:00 this morning."
Chai Yingying said in surprise: "It's 10:30 now, so shouldn't we be able to catch up with them soon?"
Lu Ji hummed.
He walked around Station 18 and although he didn't find anyone, he was in a good mood.
Since Gu Jiu has been here, it proves that he will meet Gu Jiu soon.
He immediately couldn't wait to board the train again, hoping to meet Gu Jiu before the train arrived at the first stop.
If Gu Jiu boarded the return train, he would have to start all over again if he wanted to find her. After all, on the return train, one can only get off but not get on, and once you get off, you can't get back on again.
**
The train arrived at the thirteenth station.
As soon as he got off the bus, Gu Jiu noticed two little paper figures of himself stuck on the wall of the escalator in front of him.
The little paper figures were made of red paper and pasted on the wall. They blended in with the bloodstains around them, making it difficult for people to notice their existence. Even if they were noticed, people would not think of them as anything strange because of their camouflage.
When Gu Jiu stepped onto the subway station, two little paper men tore themselves off the wall and rushed towards Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu picked them up and smiled slightly when he saw the words that appeared behind the little paper man.
It seems that she and Aji are in tune with each other. They left small paper figures for each other and wrote the time on the back of the small paper figures.
The time on the little paper man's back is 13:00-13:30.
They all entered the game world at 13:00 yesterday. She appeared at the first stop, Lu Ji appeared at the thirteenth stop, and he left at 1:30 in the afternoon.
She boarded the return train at two o'clock in the afternoon, so Lu Ji was behind her, and he was behind them today as well, because there were no paper figures at the previous stops 17 to 14.
As long as she slows down, she can wait for Lu Ji to come.
Thinking of this, Gu Jiu became happy.
After listening to her analysis, Lao Hei and the others all looked puzzled. "So, you used these little pieces of paper to guess each other's location?"
Can props be played like this
Gu Jiu nodded.
Lao Hei gave her a thumbs up and had to admit that their idea was good, but only they could do it. After all, other players didn't have so many props to waste. If small paper figures like these were mass-produced, it would be normal to waste them like this.
After searching at the thirteenth station, Gu Jiu left the two little paper figures and wrote the time behind them.
Whenever Lu Ji comes again, he will definitely see the time on the little paper man.
As everyone boarded the train and left, they saw the little paper man climb back onto the wall and stick himself to it again, using the blood stains on it to hide his figure.
"These little paper figures are really smart," said Lao Hei in amazement. "They can even hide themselves."
"The object resembles its owner!" Gu Jiu said, "Aji is just so smart."
Everyone: “…” I always felt that the tone she used when praising Lu Ji was not right.
The train arrived at station twelve.
Gu Jiu also met the little paper man at the twelfth station. The time was still recorded on the back of the little paper man, which was the time when Lu Ji arrived and left the station yesterday.
She put the little paper man away and searched all twelve stations with Lao Hei and the others.
There was no movement at the twelfth station, and the last group of people boarded the train smoothly and continued on their way.
After passing several stations like this, Gu Jiu met the little paper man left by Lu Ji at each station and checked the message Lu Ji left yesterday.
This made her more confident in finding Lu Ji.
