Gu Moli knew it the moment he opened his eyes.
Something is not right.
He was in a very bad condition, his whole body was cold, and there seemed to be blood flowing out of his nose. He was suspected to have been beaten. He was lying on the ground and twitching continuously.
“Success!”
A surprised cry came from above his head. Gu Moli wanted to raise his head, but his head felt as heavy as if a thousand-pound rock was tied to it and he couldn't lift it at all.
"You are indeed people favored by the gods just like me!"
"But it's a pity."
“You are not the first batch.”
I couldn't see the other person's face, but judging by the voice, it should be a man. Gu Moli's face was pressed against the ground, and all I could see was the damp, dark wall.
(A wall made of steel.)
(The ground is also made of iron, and it seems to be shaking. Could it be that I am on a train now? Where is Victory Formula? Is he not with me?)
(What is my identity this time?)
(People blessed by God?)
(Not the first batch?)
Countless doubts flashed through Gu Moli's mind, and at this moment, the voice above his head came again: "As long as the right conditions are combined, even if it is deliberate, the blessing of God will come. This is really a great discovery. I will write it in my diary."
Then there was the sound of paper and pen rubbing against each other.
"Okay~!"
"It's about time to let the new passengers get on board, conductor? Get ready. Once the invited guests arrive, we'll be ready to depart!"
"So... .."
"I hope you have fun."
Bang!
The heavy sound of the door closing blocked out the only ray of light in the space. Although Gu Moli did not close his eyes, his vision was still inevitably plunged into darkness. It was not until this moment that he felt he had regained his mobility and had enough energy to open the player's game panel.
Then he discovered something horrifying: he only had 10 percent of his health left.
"What are you doing!?"
"how so!"
"grass!"
The game starts with low health, what a crappy game!
While Gu Moli was cursing in his heart, his vigilance towards the current script was also raised to the extreme. It was obvious that after completing the main storyline three times in a row, the difficulty of the entire main storyline began to rise at a speed visible to the naked eye. This time it was obviously not going to be an easy journey.
"No matter what, we must first find the winning formula..."
"Hello, hello?"
"Is anyone here?"
Because there was no light in the space, Gu Moli could only call out a few times tentatively, and of course, no one responded to him.
It looks like no one is there.
So where is the winning formula
I don't understand.
Doubts filled his whole body, but Gu Moli quickly calmed down, because at this moment, the door of the dark room he was in opened again.
"That's him, help him clean up."
"We can't miss him later."
"Hurry up, hurry up."
“Oh…”
"Here I come."
Figures swarmed in, quickly pulled Gu Moli up from the ground, and then pushed him into an entrance filled with light. The dazzling light made Gu Moli squint his eyes involuntarily, and then he found that all his clothes were being stripped off.
Although he couldn't open his eyes, Gu Moli could feel that he was being dressed in new clothes.
It seems that someone is still taking care of his hair.
And then... ..
Congratulations to the player "Fireworks Are Easy to Cool", you have officially boarded the Demonic Express.
There are still five minutes until departure.
You can move freely within the carriage, but please do not try to leave the train, as refunds are not allowed on this journey to the underworld.
The locked eyes finally gained freedom.
Gu Moli slowly opened his eyes and took more than ten seconds to adjust to the bright light, only to find himself standing in a narrow corridor.
Outside is a red wasteland.
Through the window, Gu Moli could see his current attire: a black suit, a black top hat, and a monocle, looking like an elegant gentleman.
After hesitating for a moment, Gu Moli took out his noble scepter.
Now it feels better.
very good.
"The contrast between before and after is too great. At the beginning, he was a prisoner-like character, but in the blink of an eye, he was turned into this. There is no explanation yet. I can't find any clues right after entering. I can explore the carriage freely, and I'm already on the train?"
The train to the demon world.
Considering that this is the main storyline, the world view must still be the familiar dual world of the Empire and the Kingdom. And the main stage this time is the same as the Lost Shambhala, in the Kingdom. If it is a kingdom that worships magic, it doesn't sound strange to have a so-called train to the devil.
"... ... ... "
After a pause, Gu Moli suddenly smiled, then moved his monocle, then took out a golden pocket watch from his arms and checked the time.
"Almost."
"Set off."
After checking the time, Gu Moli gently pressed the button on the pocket watch, then put it back in his arms, and strode open the door of the corridor and walked in. What came into view next was a scene like a banquet hall, in which there were six figures chatting and communicating.
As Gu Moli walked into the banquet hall, six gazes and six pairs of eyes fell on him one after another, with scrutiny, doubt, and hostility.
However, Gu Moli did not pay attention to those gazes. He just continued to scan the entire banquet hall. Then, without saying a word, he turned around and left.
“This guest… ..?”
"Um?"
Gu Moli stopped walking when he heard a soft call from behind. He glanced at the person who stopped him. The person was wearing a black tuxedo and bowed deeply to him: "Please stay. If possible, I hope you can sign it. This is what all guests should do after getting on the bus."
After that he handed over a form.
"signature?"
Gu Moli glanced at the form and signed "It's hard to find a bosom friend" without hesitation. Then he looked at the staff member and said, "By the way, where is the conductor? If possible, I hope to meet with him. I want to discuss something with him."
“… … ..!!!”
As soon as the words fell, silence dominated the entire banquet hall.
(Oops.)
(I think I said the wrong thing, because the requirement of the Hero Trial is to find the train conductor, so I asked this question... It seems that being straightforward doesn't work.)
Although he felt a little uneasy in his heart, Gu Moli's expression remained unchanged. He faced the silence quietly until someone spoke up to break the atmosphere.
"This must be your first time here."
"Yes."
Of course it would be great if someone could smooth things over for Gu Moli, so he immediately responded and looked at the person who spoke, who happened to be one of the six people in the banquet hall.
Unlike Gu Moli who was dressed like a gentleman, the person who was speaking was a woman in a black dress with a veil on her face, revealing only a pair of eyes. But her eyes were different from those of ordinary people. In her normal eyes, she had a pair of venomous snake-like vertical pupils.
"Then as a pioneer, I will teach you a lesson in advance."
"The conductor."
"I will only meet the rest of the people when the train is about to arrive at the station."
"Do you understand?"
Before the masked woman in black veil finished her words, Gu Moli had already clearly understood what she meant. It was obvious that this seemed to be a mutual slaughter.
Thinking of this, Gu Moli looked at his health which was only 10% left.
Then he spoke without hesitation:
"Everyone! Let me get along!"
"Long live peace!"
