"Don't move"
Gu Qing Shan hugged Su Cher and slowly returned to the middle of the road from the edge of the tracks.
He sighed and put Su Cher down.
— — outside of the tracks was a bottomless darkness that couldn't be seen, nor could they tell how deep it was.
As for the secret passage that had been opened above the tracks, it was rising higher and further away.
The secret passage was about to leave the tracks.
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised.
He didn't think it would be a secret passage that could change. This way, no one would be able to use the same method to reach this place again.
The better news was that after the secret passage left this place, the giant skeletal claw and its master had also left this place.
The people on the tracks became rowdy, apparently trying to think of a way to get down.
Taking this chance, Gu Qing Shan asked Su Cher:
"The star chart has been activated? What does it show? "
"It shows the name of this train, called 'The Explorer', there's a line of text next to it, hm, it says … 'The train has entered hibernation, the physical activation switch is hidden next to the 11th window of the 3rd carriage, it's a square button'"
Gu Qing Shan observed the metal train not too far away and muttered: "Seems like this was something left behind by the Starlight Empire"
The entire train was divided into four carriages, each about 20 meters tall, silently waiting on the tracks.
At this point, Hazeden came down with his men.
"So it's a Technological existence" Hazeden said in surprise.
Guyan also came down.
"Didn't you say it was an insect?" he glared at his subordinate.
The subordinate felt wronged: "My Lord, it really does look like an insect"
Everyone didn't bother to look at him.
An insect that was over 100 meters long … that really scared everyone.
Guyan apologetically said: "I'm sorry, our world is a Magic-type, this brat didn't study properly, so he doesn't know anything about Technological things"
「 Who cares what it is, let's just test it out first 」 Sha Qiang said.
It then made a gesture.
Two Purgatory Hounds covered in faint flames leapt out and quickly arrived in front of the train.
They cautiously stared at the metal train and bared their teeth.
Everyone watched from behind.
All of a sudden, the two Purgatory Hounds barked:
「 Woof woof woof woof woof! 」
「 Woof woof, woof woof woof woof woof! 」
The train did not move.
Sha Qiang stroked his chin and muttered: "How strange, such a big body, could it be that it's looking down on me like that giant claw above?"
Gu Qing Shan: "…"
Gu Yan: "…"
Hazeden: "…"
Su Cher explained in a low voice, "This is a kind of transportation vehicle. It won't react if it's not ignited."
「 Ahahaha, how could there be such a stupid thing!? 」 Sha Qiang mocked.
No one had the energy to explain anymore.
Hazeden cleared his throat and said: "Let's take a look together"
"Alright."
Everyone agreed.
A group of people came to the front of the steel train and examined it carefully.
Probably because it had been here for too long, the entire train was covered in a thick layer of dust. A light touch would cause the dust to fly everywhere.
Hazeden covered his nose and scowled: "Clean!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
His guards immediately took action.
[Boiling Wind] and a water spell washed the surface of the train, revealing the original appearance of the train.
Guyan was holding a cluster of flames in his hand, illuminating the train as if it was daytime.
He pondered: "I don't know what you think, but I have a feeling … that it's not good"
The tracks were filled with dried bones that turned to ash at a single touch, obviously dead for who knows how many years.
As for the train — — - the surface of the train was covered in various slashes, scratches, and cuts, as well as large clumps of old blood that looked like graffiti.
Quite obviously, an extremely intense battle had taken place here.
A skeleton was leaning on the window of the train, still making a hammering motion even in death.
It was frozen right outside the window.
"Seems like it couldn't get on the train" Gu Qing Shan commented.
Hazeden resolutely said: "We don't need to think of a way to get on this train"
"Why not?" Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
"I remember that trains on the technological side are very fast — — for normal people"
"So if there were any problems ahead, the train would be too fast and we would have no choice but to crash into it"
Guyan also added: "Since we're all mortals right now, no matter if we crash into the train or if we fall into the darkness on both sides of the tracks, we wouldn't be able to survive"
Saying so, he casually picked up a rock on the tracks and threw it into the darkness outside the tracks.
Everyone listened carefully.
But no sound of impact could be heard.
There was no way to determine how deep it was outside the tracks.
Gu Qing Shan then said: "That's a good idea, but we still need to take a closer look …"
He pulled Su Cher to take a look at the train.
Sha Qiang looked down at the two Hell Hounds:
「 If we have to go on our own, then we should let them scout the way 」
The two Hell Hounds quickly followed the tracks and moved forward.
The others began to study the marks on the train.
Someone drew his weapon and slashed at the train.
Sparks flew.
The metal exterior of the train wasn't damaged at all.
This time, everyone understood its defensive capabilities.
Gu Qing Shan brought Su Cher around the train.
The train's doors were tightly shut, unable to be opened from the outside.
"Do you have the train's structure on the star chart?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I don't" Su Cher shook his head.
Suddenly, an electronic voice came: [I have all the information on the Starlight Empire, currently displaying the Explorer's structure and functions]
Su Cher also heard it and was a bit surprised.
"This is a Super Space-Time weapon from Impartial Goddess" Gu Qing Shan explained.
While he was explaining to Su Xue Er, for some reason, the entire structure of the [Explorer] train appeared in his mind.
Gu Qing Shan carefully checked the train's functions and sighed after a while.
"Impressive"
He couldn't help but exclaim.
"Even more advanced than our technology?" Su Cher asked.
"Much more advanced" Gu Qing Shan sincerely replied.
"Compared to the Blazing Heaven you created all those years ago — — -"
When Su Cher was about to continue asking, the electronic voice cut him off:
[Sir Gu Qing Shan, is there any other information you would like to know?]
Su Cher could only begrudgingly shut his mouth.
"Just now, you used brainwave transmission?" Gu Qing Shan asked in return.
[Indeed] the electronic voice answered.
"What kind of ability did you leave behind? Was it brainwave transmission? "Gu Qing Shan asked again.
[Data transmission is only an instinct of this technological lifeform, the ability left behind by this Super Space-Time weapon is used to participate in war] the electronic voice answered.
Gu Qing Shan shrugged: "What about weapons? I actually need a technological weapon right now "
The electronic voice answered: [Changing from a plastic surgery device to a weapon of war is a very large step, it will take a certain amount of time]
"Alright, there's no rush, we have something we can use right now"
Gu Qing Shan reached her hand out, pressed it against a certain square button on the wall of the train.
— — this place was right next to the 11th window of the third carriage.
As soon as Gu Qing Shan pressed the button, an unassuming grey handle popped up.
All of a sudden, Sha Qiang's voice resounded from the other side of the train: 「 Oh no! Both of my dogs are dead! 」
Hazeden asked: "What's the situation?"
「 A monster 」 Sha Qiang called out, 「 The tracks ahead have been broken, a gigantic monster is climbing up from below — — - it's heading straight for us! 」
The group immediately became tense.
"My men, gather over here and prepare for battle!" Hazeden loudly ordered.
"Everyone, prepare for battle!" Guyan also said.
Sha Qiang dejectedly said: 「 We can't, that guy is too terrifying, with our current state — – 」
Hazeden angrily shouted: "If you want to be eaten, then go ahead, we're going to fight!"
Sha Qiang finally regained his composure and called out to the evil creatures:
「 Everyone, prepare to fight to the death! 」
On the other side of the train.
Su Cher grabbed Gu Qing Shan's hand and looked at him.
Gu Qing Shan gave her a reassuring look.
"It's fine, just as you said, knowledge can change one's fate"
He grabbed the grey handle with his other hand and pulled it back.
Crack!
Rumble rumble rumble — — -
The entire train began to shake intensely.
A flash of light shot out from the train and scanned through everyone.
A second later, a cold and metallic voice resounded from inside the train:
[Self-assessment in progress]
[Self-assessment complete, integrity: 87%]
[Detected possessor of the Starlight bloodline]
[Detected a great threat approaching this train]
[Engage the enemy in one minute]
[Entering combat state]
[Await further orders]
The voice faded away. A line of rapidly disappearing numbers appeared in the darkness above the train.
One minute.
Time was quickly passing.
Gu Qing Shan squeezed Su Cher's hand and said: "Xue Er, it's your turn"
"Ah? Right, I'm the possessor of the Starlight bloodline, but what should I do? "Su Cher asked.
Gu Qing Shan recalled the various functions of the train in her mind and replied: "You authorize me to use this train"
Su Cher reacted and asked: "You want to use it to fight?"
The ground began to shake.
Faintly, the sound of heavy footsteps could be heard heading towards this direction.
"The only ones here who understand technology are you and I, I just received the blueprint of the train's functions and know how to use it — — not to mention, I'm more familiar with combat than anyone else" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Su Cher nervously said: "Then I want to come with you"
"Of course, I have a co-driver" Gu Qing Shan replied.
A voice then resounded from the train:
[Engaging the enemy]
[Final countdown of 20 seconds:]
[Nineteen]
[Eighteen]
[Seventeen]
Su Xue Er immediately shouted: "I authorize this man next to me, let him lead me into battle, come!"
[Order accepted]
The metallic voice went silent. A flash of light swept through Gu Qing Shan and Su Cher.
The two of them vanished in an instant.
The train abruptly stood up from the tracks.
It reached out its two metallic hands to grab onto the tracks to prevent itself from falling.
Following that, countless metallic parts quickly and perfectly combined to form a gigantic humanoid body.
The metallic giant slowly stood up from its half-kneeling position.
[Starlight Mech has been loaded, please select your weapon]
[— — selection complete]
[Star Sundering Sword, activate]
The metallic giant drew a short metal rod from its thigh.
Oong — — — —
A long streak of burning light appeared on the metal rod, continuously tearing through the void of space around it.
The metallic giant lowered its body, wielded its sword, and retreated.
It abruptly disappeared from everyone's sight!
「 Ignore that technological artifact, look ahead! 」 Sha Qiang shouted.
Everyone quickly retracted their shock and turned to look at the tracks.
The ground was shaking more and more violently.
"Engage the enemy — — –"
Hazeden angrily shouted.
A second later.
From the darkness ahead, a gigantic figure abruptly leapt out.
It was a monster covered in black flames with a mouth full of sharp fangs.
This monster was several dozen meters tall, the lonely tracks in the darkness were constantly being melted and broken by its steps.
Behind it, all things were destroyed, leaving nothing but nothingness!
It was exactly like a monster from myths and legends!
The monster looked down at everyone and spoke with a resounding voice: 「 Fresh meat, all of you are my food — — 」
Before it could finish, the metallic giant appeared from another direction.
It wielded the sword of light in its hand and abruptly thrust it into the monster's chest!
