Li Shaoheng was no longer able to deal with this situation.
If he tries to stop the artist, he will be attacked by the scientist. If he stops the scientist, the artist's ability will destroy the entire train.
By then, most ordinary people will die in the train accident, and Li Shaoheng will die in the "realm of nothingness".
The only ones who could survive might be Cen Xiangyun and An Yu.
Sometimes, knowing too much is not a good thing.
Have you been cornered?...
A rare despair crept into Li Shaoheng's eyes, and he slowly closed his eyes. Cen Xiangyun, a junior who was familiar with him, saw this scene and suddenly understood what this elder was going to do.
I'll die anyway, but at least... I can protect these ordinary people.
Protect the foundations of these times and prevent this "boundary" from becoming "chaos."
That's what the "Company" exists for.
The flying blade appeared again, aimed at the artist.
The scientist laughed because Li Shaoheng made a choice that satisfied her and was the most valuable exchange for the pioneers.
However, just before this exchange of Juexin's death occurred, a scene similar to the beginning of this incident occurred.
A cold and indifferent voice sounded in the minds of Li Shaoheng, Cen Xiangyun and An Yu at the same time.
"Aim at the scientists."
Who is it
Miss Luo Ling
But it doesn't sound like...
A familiar situation happened again, and the scientist's hideous face was before his eyes.
The issue of trust was put before Li Shaoheng.
Do you want to believe this strange voice
The scientist would not leave him time to hesitate, but Cen Xiangyun bought him a little hesitation.
"Ice freeze!"
Cen Xiangyun did not use the freezing skill on Li Shaoheng, because one cannot use his abilities while frozen.
She cast it on herself, then used herself as a shield to protect the elders.
The spider's legs mercilessly broke through the ice, leaving a shocking wound on Cen Xiangyun's thigh.
Even though Cen Xiangyun used ice to freeze her thighs immediately, the poisonous blood still caused most of her long legs to be stained with disgusting festering pus.
This slight period of relief allowed Li Shaoheng's hesitation to turn into certainty. He turned the flying blade and cut off the scientist's three spider legs.
Including the one that Luo Ling broke off, only half of the spider leg was left on the scientist's back.
"What!"
The scientist was shocked and confused. She didn't expect Li Shaoheng to change his mind at the last minute and exchange a whole car of people for her three.
This is certainly not worth it for the scientist. She doesn't care whether she kills ordinary people or not, but she cannot accept the heavy "price" of losing the spider's legs.
What makes scientists even more nervous is that this is also something that happened beyond "omniscience"!
"Omniscience"... failed to foresee this possibility.
The inexplicable irritation surged up from the bottom of her heart again, and an urge to sacrifice almost dominated her.
At the same time, even worse news came.
The artist stood up silently and said slowly,
"The train was separated."
... What's the meaning
At this moment, the entire carriage had turned golden and stopped moving.
But the expected terror and numerous deaths did not come, and the surroundings were deathly silent.
"The carriage..."
An Yu leaned her head out of the window. She could only see the outside world and the current situation of the train.
"It's separated from the entire train."
This golden carriage had become a solitary entity on the railway at some point in time. The other carriages and the locomotive had sailed away into the distance, unaffected by its golden transformation.
In other words, the hostages were gone.
"No! How is that possible!"
At this point the scientist looked a little bit crazy, and her "omniscience" seemed to have lost its effect. This was another possibility that was beyond her control.
"This is... "
Even Li Shaoheng could not have anticipated this situation. He did not have the ability to use his spatial ability in the "Realm of Nothingness" to separate this carriage completely without affecting other parts of the train.
"I did it."
A calm, calm voice sounded.
Everyone looked up and saw a strange tall woman standing at the entrance of the carriage, still holding the door closed, as if she had just stepped onto the train.
However, no one present knew her.
"Who are you?"
The artist frowned, feeling that he had seen this strange tall woman before.
Is it the memory from some life form
"Ji Ying." The tall woman's face was silent, "Or you can call me..." "Kui Kuei Ya."
... ...
The pain in the heart gradually turned into a soft numbness, and the cold body seemed to be in a familiar warmth.
When Luo Ling opened her eyes again, she was once again back in the strange space that she had been to countless times.
Faltering oil lamps lit up on both sides of the corridor, and the quaint door was half-open.
"This is... "
After recovering from the trance of being killed by the scientist, Luo Ling collapsed on the spot powerlessly. She was exhausted.
The heavy feeling of fatigue made her breathless. She didn't know how long it had passed, but when Luo Ling came to her senses again, she was already standing at the door of the second room.
A gentle warm light shone in the room. Luo Ling pushed the door open and walked in. Just as she expected, the interior of the room was exactly the same as the evil ghost pioneer's train.
The fire was still crackling in the fireplace, and the unsipped hot tea on the table was steaming.
The only difference is that it is still in the middle of the room.
... but it was not the crystal coffin in the previous room.
Two old, worn wooden planks were crossed and stood on the floor in the shape of a cross.
Several green vines wrapped around the cross, spreading upwards until beautiful lavender flowers bloomed at the end.
Bound by vines and a cross is a stunningly beautiful woman, with her eyes slightly closed, faint enchanting lines outlined at the corners of her eyebrows, bright purple wavy long hair casually draped around her shoulders, and her delicate breasts faintly visible.
A simple white cloth dress could not diminish her charm at all. Even though she was bound and imprisoned, she still had the alluring charm and irresistible temptation.
She seemed to be laughing, but also seemed to be crying.
When Luo Ling approached the purple-haired woman, similar information popped up in his mind.
["Chaos": Naraku]
[Inherent Ability: "Weaving" - Expand the spider web field and obtain all predictable information within the field]
[The dots are woven into lines, the lines are woven into a web, and within the spider web... Naraku knows everything and knows everything. ]
Chapter 84 The End of Tragedy (5k)
"Ji Ying?"
The first person to react to this name was not Li Shaoheng and Cen Xiangyun, nor the members of the Evil Ghost Pioneers, but An Yu, who had always been inconspicuous.
She looked at the mysterious woman in doubt and uncertainty, and her panicked expression was seen by everyone.
... This mysterious woman, who had been mentioned many times by Xiaobai and speculated by the group leader to be a strange existence, appeared in everyone's sight for the first time.
The woman named "Ji Ying" was dressed simply, and her slightly heroic face was filled with indifference. Her eyes were fixed in a certain direction, as if she was staring at something.
There seemed to be nothing in that direction, but scientists were the first to realize that was where the "spiritual traveler" was currently located.
"Finally, it appears..."
Ji Ying murmured in a low voice, with an inexplicable sadness and struggle deep in her voice.
"Hehehe... This day has finally come.
"But I can't hold on any longer..."
"I've seen you before."
The artist looked at this strange woman and said in a deep voice.
His deep gaze seemed to want to imprint Ji Ying in his mind and outline all the memories of this woman in his subconscious.
Finally, he seemed to have read some information about "Ji Ying" and his eyes were filled with astonishment.
"Ji Ying?"
"No, that's not right... Your name is not Ji Ying..."
"You should be... "Shadow Festival"
But how is this possible!
This name, and the owner of this name, should have completely disappeared...
In a certain destroyed "chaos boundary", Yingjie and her team contained a strange disaster that had fully erupted, a terrible doomsday that was close to a "taboo" disaster.
Because the "chaos" has been destroyed, all records of the disaster have disappeared, along with the origin, process and results of the disaster, all of which have been reduced to ashes.
It also includes the weirdness that causes disasters and the existence that solves them.
The reason why the artist can remember a little bit is that the disaster is related to the strange path of "death" he was exploring, and the aftermath affected some of his progress.
This is a disaster caused by a "high-risk weirdness" that cannot be restricted...
Even though artists and scientists regard the "high-risk weirdness" in Jiangcheng County as prey, it is because it is in a weak and dormant state. If it were not for this situation, they would not even dare to approach Jiangcheng County.
The existing "taboo" and "high-risk weird" holy remains basically do not come from the original body. They are either differentiated "eggs" or simply skeletons that exist by borrowing power.
For example, today's scientists, if someone killed her and peeled off the strange part, this part would also be called the "forbidden" holy remains.
but...
It is definitely different from the real "forbidden" holy relics.
Therefore, a truly "high-risk and strange" holy body is an irresistible temptation for any organization or any awakened person.
—The prerequisite is that you have the life to get it.
The high-risk weirdness in peak state and the high-risk weirdness in dormant state are completely different things.
The result of a complete outbreak of a high-risk strange disease is a disaster that destroys the continent. The most famous example is the "Black Death" disaster caused by the "plague" in Europe from 1347 to 1353 AD, which killed more than one-third of the population of Europe.
The disasters that the Shadow Festival team contained were only stronger than them, but they were forgotten in this chaotic era influenced by the "taboo", so they seemed less noticeable.
"... ..."
Ji Ying finally retracted her gaze and fell on the artist. Her unchanging eyes made it difficult to tell whether she confirmed or denied the artist's words.
But at this moment, the artist suddenly thought of more. Since the "Shadow Festival" appeared here, it means that the weirdness has not been completely eliminated, and the weirdness at that time belonged to the "Death" path, which means...
The high-risk and weird things dormant in Jiangcheng County were the ones that caused the disaster at that time!
If, this is true...
