There is Definitely Something Wrong with This Game

"My beautiful lady, may I ask your name...?"

"My name?"

"Ah, my name..." The woman in black veil raised her eyebrows and then laughed. Around her, other passengers also smiled as if they were laughing at something. Then, the woman in black veil gave a smiling answer:

"... ..Call me Medusa, sir?"

As soon as the words fell, the eyes of the woman in black veil, where the ordinary eyes and the vertical snake pupils overlapped, suddenly changed. The vertical pupils hidden in the deepest part actually flashed a ray of golden light, and quickly turned into clear gold at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a pair of gorgeous gems.

But in stark contrast to that magnificent appearance,

Gu Moli couldn't move.

His limbs were becoming stiff, and a feeling of coldness was gradually seeping from his internal organs into his blood, then from his blood into his skin, spreading throughout his entire body.

Bang!

A loud explosion suddenly sounded in the banquet hall where the atmosphere was frozen. Gu Moli had already grasped the Angel of Death in his hand without knowing it. He pulled the trigger, and the magic-destroying blast immediately spread out with the sound of the explosion, directly dispelling the stiffness and coldness that spread throughout the body.

"Huh?"

Seeing this scene, the guests in the banquet hall suddenly let out a soft cry, and many of them showed interested expressions, including the woman in black veil.

"It's nice to meet you, Miss Medusa."

"I like the title of Mr. Gentleman. Please call me that."

"Oh and more."

Gu Moli looked at the woman in black veil and said politely while pointing the muzzle of the Angel of Death gun in his hand at the woman in black veil, then grinned:

"Go to hell."

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three gunshots were heard in succession! This time, it was no longer a magic-destroying blast caused by blank bullets, but a real magic bullet! And three of them in a row!

Three magic bullets penetrated into the body of the woman in black veil one after another. Although the black-haired woman tried to react for a moment and there were obvious magic fluctuations around her body, she had no power to resist the magic-breaking bullets of the Angel of Death and was directly pierced through the body by the magic bullets!

“How is it possible….!”

The expression was dull, and there was an unspeakable surprise and astonishment in the special eyes of the woman in black veil. It was obvious that she did not expect Gu Moli to shoot like this.

In other words, she didn't expect that just a few bullets would actually take her life.

Then... ..

Click!

The sound of breaking glass suddenly rang out, and then the space around the woman in black veil suddenly materialized, as if it had turned into a mirror. Cracks then quickly spread across the mirror, and finally exploded. Behind the broken mirror, the figure of the woman in black veil reappeared.

In perfect condition.

All the injuries disappeared along with the shattered scene, and standing in front of everyone was a woman in black veil who was still in the same condition as before she was shot.

"... ..It's really scary, gentleman."

“Ahhhh.”

Gu Moli narrowed his eyes, but kept smiling: "Sorry, sorry, Miss Medusa, my hand just slipped, I'm glad you didn't get killed by me."

“No, no…”

Bang!

That bastard Gu Moli fired again.

However, this time the woman in black veil was clearly alert. The moment the magic bullet fell in front of her, her eyes suddenly lit up. As the magic bullet approached her, the air suddenly solidified, forming a series of protective walls blocking the magic bullet.

The speed of the magic bullet was extremely fast, but there seemed to be a lot of magic power hidden in the air wall. After the sound of shattering was heard more than ten times in succession, the magic bullet finally came in front of the woman in black veil, but at the critical moment, two white shadows jumped out from behind the woman in black veil's head.

"hiss-----!!!"

They were two white snakes covered with scales.

The two white snakes attacked from both sides, hit the magic bullet heavily, and finally exploded at the same time. The remaining flesh and blood and the magic bullet that lost kinetic energy fell to the ground together.

"... Gentleman, are you still going to shoot?"

"It seems that he can't be killed."

Gu Moli's expression remained unchanged, and he immediately put away the angel of death, as if he was not the one who had just fired the gun. He stretched out his hand to the woman in black veil with great calmness: "Let's get along well, Miss Medusa. Don't look at me like this, what I advocate most is peace."

"You really do what you say."

"Thanks for the compliment."

Gu Moli's palms were clasped together with the hands of the woman in black veil. Through their skin, Gu Moli could clearly feel the other person's almost dead body temperature.

After this confrontation, the people in the banquet hall no longer looked at Gu Moli with mockery, but with a little more caution. After shaking hands, Gu Moli also looked at the six people in the banquet hall again, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly spoke:

"I'm sure you can tell that this is my first time on this train."

"You all look like regular customers."

"Can you give me a brief introduction to this amazing train?"

After saying that, Gu Moli glanced at the train staff beside him, but the latter was just looking at his nose and his nose, as if he didn't hear what Gu Moli said.

“It’s not impossible.”

Medusa, who had just been shot four times by Gu Moli and almost died on the spot, seemed to want to repair the relationship with Gu Moli and spoke first:

"Since you are on this train, that means you at least know the destination of the train, right?"

"You mean the demon world?"

"Yes."

Medusa nodded. "He is the great demon who can fulfill all wishes. He lives in the demon world, and this train is the altar to summon him."

Gu Moli's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. According to the previous main plot, this so-called big devil might be another god-level NPC...

"... .Summon His altar?"

"That's right."

Medusa smiled and said, "The so-called journey to the demon world is actually just a journey to accumulate the magic power needed to summon Him. The track of this train is the dragon vein within the kingdom. By running on it, we can extract the magic power needed for the ceremony, and then activate it at the end."

"Eventually the great evil will come."

“That’s what we call arriving in the demon world.”

“I see…”

Gu Moli looked at Medusa and suddenly smiled: "I don't think that big devil would be so kind as to help us realize our wishes for free."

"Of course not."

Before Medusa could answer, one of the other five passengers spoke with some disgust: "Otherwise, it would not be a demon, but a god."

He was a middle-aged man also in a suit.

He was wearing gold-rimmed glasses.

Judging from his upright posture and the attire he is, he is obviously a successful person. Whether he has power or not remains to be seen, but he is definitely rich.

"This gentleman...?"

The middle-aged man pushed up his glasses and said, “Call me Dharmavikas.”

"Mr. Vikas?"

"... That's fine."

Gu Moli nodded and looked at the remaining four passengers. His meaning was self-evident. The remaining four people hesitated for a moment and then spoke one after another.

"Atlas." This is the most muscular man, who looks like a boxer.

"Amute." This man is completely different from the former, a thin man who seems like he will be blown down by the wind.

"Leviathan." A masked woman like Medusa, but her outfit is more revealing and her figure is a little better.

"Amphis Banner." A cheerful young man in sportswear with a sunny smile on his face.

It is obvious that these are not real names but code names, but they seem to have different meanings.

A very wonderful combination.

"Mr. Attalas, Mr. Amt, Mr. Leviathan, and... um, Mr. Banner, it's nice to meet you." Gu Moli bowed with a smile.

At the same time, I began to think silently in my heart.

strangeness.

What about the winning formula

This time I'm not playing solo, but in duo. Victory Formula should have entered the game with me, so why can't I find him

"I'm sorry." Thinking of this, Gu Moli immediately looked at the staff beside him: "Are all the passengers on this train here?"

"Yes." The staff nodded.

Gu Moli frowned even more deeply. These were the only "guests". What about the "non-guests"? He had not forgotten what happened when he first came here. He fell to the ground, half dead. It was hard to imagine that he was invited to this car as a guest.

Of course there is another possibility.

The winning formula is dead.

This is not impossible. You have to know that when Gu Moli first came to the script, his health points had dropped to 10%. When he was communicating with Medusa, if he did not have some abilities, he might have become a corpse and been thrown out of the train window.

Taking all factors into consideration, there is a possibility that the Victory Formula will die suddenly.

Gu Moli glanced at everyone again and wanted to ask about the situation he had encountered, but considering that they were enemies rather than friends, he kept his mouth shut.

However, at this moment,

"Didn't you just talk about the altar for summoning the great devil, Medusa? You only told me half of it. There is one key thing you didn't mention."

Vikas, who had spoken with hatred before, spoke again:

"If you want the great devil to fulfill his wish, you need a sacrifice."

"Mr. Gentleman, what kind of sacrifice do you think is suitable for a great demon?"

There was an unspeakable mockery in Vikas's eyes, and after comprehensively considering the previous conversation, Gu Moli gave his answer without thinking:

"It should be human life."

"correct."

Vikas curled his lips and said, "Human flesh and blood is the devil's favorite sacrifice. Human suspicion is the devil's favorite script. Human hatred is the devil's favorite food. They hate each other in suspicion and kill each other in hatred. The person who dies in the end is the sacrifice."

"Those who survive will have their wishes fulfilled."

“And then get congratulated by the conductor.”

"Get off the train alive."

"I'm sorry, sir, you seem to have boarded this train on impulse. It's too late to regret it now."

“Vikas!”

At this moment, Atlas, who was the most burly, suddenly interrupted Vikas's taunting with a low growl: "The situation is not as bad as you say. In fact, there is no need to kill each other. As long as we can hold on to the end safely, we can still achieve our wish."

Gu Moli immediately asked, "What do you mean?"

“That’s what it means.”

The second female passenger, Miss Leviathan, chuckled and said, her voice was a little hoarse compared to Medusa's, but it had a certain alluring charm: "As long as we can promise not to kill each other and hold on until the train stops, our wish will come true."

"No need to kill each other?"

"The killing of one another due to suspicion is indeed a plot that the great devil likes. But just like some humans like tragedy while others appreciate comedy, the great devil will not reject mutual assistance due to trust. He will accept either outcome."

"... ..No."

Gu Moli frowned and continued, "Since killing each other is not necessary, why does Mr. Vikas emphasize this point?"

"Because in the previous trip to the demon world... .. rather than trusting each other, killing each other was the main theme!"

Leaning against the window of the banquet hall, the skinny Amt suddenly sneered and gave an answer, while Amphisbanner beside him smiled bitterly and waved his hand: "Don't say that, there are always exceptions, right? Don't make the atmosphere awkward before the start."

"hehe."

Gu Moli silently memorized the interactions of these passengers, but apart from the missing winning formula, there was another very important question:

“Why is cannibalism the theme?”

"What reason do you have to kill each other?"

"... ... ... "

As soon as Gu Moli asked this question, the atmosphere in the entire banquet hall froze again, just like when Gu Moli asked where to find the train conductor.

(What a ghost.)

(Did I ask the wrong question again?)

(What the hell!)

Just as Gu Moli was considering his words and wondering what he had said wrong, Medusa suddenly sighed:

"Gentleman, whether you really don't know or you're pretending not to know."

"For the few shots you fired just now,"

"I'll tell you."

Medusa paused for a moment, and her golden snake eyes fell on Gu Moli, with a bit of scrutiny, and she spoke again after a while:

"Because among us, there are some who are not from the outside world."

"... .Oh?"

"Those who can come to this train all have sufficient status and position in the outside world, or have power, or money, or strength."

"But in reality, some people's identities are forged."

"They are not from the outside world, but from inside the train. They are people who were defeated in the previous train trips and became sacrifices to the great devil, but were spared by him and survived by chance. If they want to leave the train and even regain their freedom, they need to kill people."

"One life for another."

"Kill a passenger and let him become the sacrifice in your place. Then you can leave the train with the identity forged by the big devil. The forged identity will also become real. This is the so-called fake becomes real. It is equivalent to a resurrection match for the loser."

"Do you think anyone would give up the qualification for this kind of resurrection match?"

Gu Moli understood.

Including himself, there were a total of seven passengers. At first glance, they all seemed to be from the outside world, but in fact some of them were from inside the train, and those people were always eyeing the lives of others. Only by killing others could they regain their freedom, and even get status and money.

That is to say... ..

"Isn't this Werewolf?"

"Grass!"
