Corrupted Nation.

Chapter 314 Curtain Station
Maya said: "Stay in town 20 for an hour. We no longer need to replenish coal and pawn excess items for money to buy bullets in the armed carriage."

"We have enough bullets in stock." Lin Wu reminded.

"Did you forget how many bullets the players fired in the last few hours in the abandoned city?" Maya said: "I will sort out the items in the warehouse and sell all the excess. With the unused cash before, I should be able to I scraped together more than 300 knives."

Qinglang reminded: "Don't you consider leaving some cash to Curtain Town?"

Maya asked: "How many passengers are left?"

"Four."

Maya said: "The 40-dollar fare for four passengers will be used in Curtain Town. We can't bet on the last stop."

"at last?"

Maya nodded: "Probably. Lin Wu, please pay more attention to the whereabouts of nightmares."

"Understood." Lin Wu touched Xiao Wai's dog head: "Xiao Wai, I leave it to you."

……

Town No. 20 is simply a replica of Town No. 10. Even the roads and NPCs are almost identical, and coal is sold at the station.From this, Maya arrived at the pawn shop with ease and sold most of the supplies in exchange for banknotes.At the same time, the carriages were adjusted, the campfire carriage and the passenger carriage were exchanged, and the passenger carriage was moved to the first carriage.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, with the sound of the whistle, Lin Wu closed the door of the passenger compartment, the wheels turned, and the train headed for Curtain Town.

When the train slowly speeded up, the nightmare that had been lurking on the roadside jumped slightly and boarded the Orient Express flatbed car.She leaned to the side and looked in through the glass of the passage door. She found that the passenger car had been moved to the front. At the same time, she also saw Xiao Wai running around in the passage.

When the train was moving, with the help of the wind and the tightness of the carriage, Nightmare believed that Xiao Wai could not smell himself.Once you enter the car, you will definitely not be able to escape the dog's nose.Nightmare looked to the side, unable to climb from the side to the passenger compartment without being discovered.Nightmare took out a tablet, which was a route guide that could display terrain conditions within ten kilometers.

Nightmare climbed onto the roof of the car and moved forward in small steps on the roof.This was because she was overly worried. Lin Wu had already repaired all the carriages, so people walking normally on the roof would not make any noise.

Crossing the gap between the carriages, which was less than 30 centimeters, Nightmare arrived at the campfire carriage.Then came the supplies car, the armed car, the medical car, and finally the dormitory car.The one in front is the passenger compartment.In order to avoid being touched, Nightmare only brought a pistol, a shotgun and some bullets.

Nightmare took out a pistol and stepped onto the passenger car. She hooked her left leg on the top protrusion and tied it with a rope. She hung upside down and slowly slid down.After sliding down a distance, Nightmare saw a pair of legs walking in the middle of the aisle. Nightmare stopped sliding and looked at the passenger seat on the right. Not only did he not find Sasha, he also didn't see any NPC passengers.

Nightmare waited quietly for those legs to leave before returning to the roof of the car. She looked at the tablet and lay down to wait quietly. In less than a minute, the train entered the tunnel, and the back of Nightmare lying on the roof was only 1 centimeters from the top of the tunnel.

After passing the tunnel, Nightmare slowly slid down the left side and saw Lin Wu sitting by the window.Lin Wu's location was further away than Nightmare's, so Nightmare could only see Lin Wu's back.The window next to Lin Wu was open. He seemed to be admiring the beautiful scenery in the distance, and seemed to be in a daze.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.Nightmare slowly hung the pistol back up and took off the double-barreled shotgun on his backpack. This gun could fire twice in a row.The first shot penetrated the glass and injured Lin Wu, and the second shot could directly kill Lin Wu.Didn't Lin Wu open the window?Where did the glass come from?This type of window is a window that slides upward, with two upper windows overlapping.

At this point, Nightmare hesitated again.In her previous connection with Maya, she had stated that Shasha was her target.What about killing Lin Wu?Killing Lin Wu without exposing himself would be equivalent to reminding Maya that someone was lurking in the train, which would not help in killing Sha Sha.Therefore, Maya would not believe that Nightmare killed Lin Wu first to get rid of Shasha.

This is the so-called unspoken rule, which is not explicitly stipulated and is not open to argument.Nightmare hates herself so much, why should she explain her purpose to Maya?In this way, it restrained his own hands and feet.

But where is Sasha?Not on the left, not on the right.According to the mission instructions, Shasha was not allowed to leave the passenger compartment. Was she asked to hide and lie on the ground?Nightmare believed that Lin Wu could do such a thing, and did not even rule out the possibility of Shasha being stepped on by Lin Wu.

You must control your own destiny, do it!
Nightmare slid another 10 centimeters, ready to attack Lin Wu, but saw Lin Wu holding a revolver in his left hand and a mirror in his right hand.This discovery made Nightmare break into a cold sweat. She didn't know what went wrong, but she believed that as long as she pointed the gun at Lin Wu, Lin Wu would definitely take action first.Nightmare has no confidence against the magical headlock that can deflect bullets.

Before Lin Wu could make a move or speak, Nightmare pushed hard on his feet and returned to the roof of the car first.Now that her whereabouts were revealed, she simply stopped pretending and raised her shotgun and fired directly at the car below.The first bullet penetrated the car. Although the steel ball had almost no lethality, it opened a hole. The second bullet blasted into the car at the same location.

Lin Wu held a pistol and blew the barrel of the gun into the mirror. He felt that he could not reproduce the feeling of the hero on the movie poster.When he heard the first gunshot, he subconsciously looked up. Just as Nightmare pumped the pump to prepare for the second shot, Lin Wu ducked sideways and almost hit him with a handful of steel balls.

Good people don't live long, and disasters last thousands of years.

Even with such a close-range shotgun attack, Lin Wu still avoided the vital point. His right hand, right arm and right leg were maimed and he lost the ability to move.Lin Wu fell on the floor in the corridor, raised his gun with his left hand and fired two shots at the ceiling.Oblivious to the nightmare on the roof of the car, he folded off the barrel of the shotgun, put two cylindrical bullets in, snapped back the barrel, pulled the pump bolt, took a step forward, and fired another two-shot combo down below.

Lin Wu was lying on the side of the aisle. He could only see the hole punched by the steel ball on the top, but could not see the location of the nightmare. At this time, his left leg was maimed and was seriously injured.The hole was too small, and even the nightmare could not find Lin Wu's position. I believed he had rolled into the blind corner of his field of vision.Lin Wu is already dead?No, Nightmare doesn't believe it.

Maya at the front of the car looked back to see the situation clearly, picked up the rifle beside her, opened the door at the front of the car and walked to the covered bridge.In an ordinary carriage, you enter the carriage through the door.There's something different about old train locomotives.The driver walks up several steps to the covered bridge and walks two to three meters across the covered bridge to reach the cab.

As soon as Maya came out of the covered bridge, the train entered the tunnel and it was dark for a moment.Maya didn't dare to move. The tunnels in this era were designed tightly and there wasn't much space.

The emergence of tunnels is in the calculations of nightmares.When she approached the tunnel, she immediately lay down, put down the shotgun, grabbed the protrusion with both hands and released it, placing her feet down and sliding down against the car.The tunnel wall kept rubbing the clothes on her back.When Nightmare's body was about to stall and fall, she firmly grasped the heavy sill outside the window with both hands, and her legs almost touched the ground.

Nightmare grabbed the window edge with one hand and put down the trinocular night vision device on his forehead with the other hand.This is a 5-kilometer-long tunnel. She has enough time to kill Shasha first and then Lin Wu, or kill Lin Wu first and then Shasha, or kill Maya first.

Due to lack of space, Nightmare's front half leaned into the window first. With the help of the night vision device, the situation inside the car was clear at a glance.Not only could he see clearly from his seat, but he could also clearly see the pistol pointed at him, and of course Lin Wu who was wearing night vision goggles.

Because it was daytime, Lin Wu put the night vision device into his backpack.When he encountered a surprise attack and the train entered the tunnel, Lin Wu immediately put on his night vision goggles, then lay on the ground and watched the entire performance of the nightmare.At this time, Lin Wu only had one question in his mind: Why is her agility so high?As an agility master, Lin Wu knew that if anyone wanted to complete this set of actions in the game, even professionals would need ten stars of agility.Non-professionals need 15 stars, and clumsy people need 20 stars at least.

Nightmare also has a question: Where did Lin Wu get the night vision goggles?

It was impossible for Lin Wu to obtain night vision goggles directly through ordinary transactions and tasks, and according to the report of the dead fortress agent, no one had his night vision goggles taken away.There are only two possibilities. The first possibility is that someone lied and lost his night vision device but did not tell everyone.The second possibility is that someone traded the night vision device to Lin Wu.

Who is this person?Nightmare first suspected Xue Meng. During this siege, Xue Meng resisted targeting Lin Wu. She was only interested in Sha Sha.For Xue Meng who still retains a certain strength, although the gap with Nightmare is very large, he is always Nightmare's biggest competitor.The nightmare didn't have time to think about it anymore. The damn guy didn't rush to shoot. Instead, he dragged the injured body and stretched out a thief hand towards him.Nightmare raised his legs that were still outside the window without hesitation.The legs rubbed against the tunnel wall, and Nightmare was swept away. During the process, Nightmare's body was twisted back and forth by the huge pulling force, and all the bones in his body were broken. He died on the spot.

Lin Wu was so angry at this scene that he wanted to stamp his feet. Because his legs were disabled, he could only think about it casually.Lin Wu regretted that he was too greedy, always thinking of touching the nightmare before shooting, creating conditions for himself to touch it three times.

It’s true that people’s hearts are so weak that they need to be changed.

"How? What's going on?" Qinglang, who had just fallen asleep, heard the sound of gunshots and sat up, then quickly fell into darkness. He didn't even get the gun, so he could only touch and walk.

"It's okay, I can't die." Lin Wu said, "But it's best if someone comes over to help me."

Qinglang touched Lin Wu, put his right hand on his shoulder, dragged him to the medical carriage and placed him on the hospital bed.The train leaves the tunnel and Maya goes to the infirmary with a gun and asks, "Nightmare?"

"Yes."

"Did she shoot at you?"

Lin Wu thought for a while: "Strictly speaking, I can't say that, but I'm not sure."

"Huh?" She didn't like the ambiguous answer.

Lin Wu explained: "Sasha was at my feet, so I wasn't sure whether she shot at Sasha or me. Judging from the result, I took all the bullets. Sasha was fine at all."

If the target of the nightmare is himself, then there is an unexplainable problem.Nightmare has the ability to slide silently to the window. She should seize the opportunity to sneak up on her instead of blindly shooting on the roof of the car.

Combining the information and Lin Wu's injuries, Maya understood the basic situation and said: "She will not come again. Remember to repair the carriage after the injury is healed. We should be able to have a good rest tonight."

……

Starting from Town No. 10, Oriental Train has gone through many hardships and its crew has been reduced from five to three.There is a shortage of manpower. They are busy dealing with fortress agents during the day and tired of night missions at night. Everyone is exhausted.This night was the best sleep they had ever had. The three of them were not awakened until the autonomous driving announcement announced that they would arrive at the Curtain Station in 10 minutes.The time is [-]:[-] in the morning on the seventh day.

Curtain Town is not a big town, and the station is not big, but there are many railway tracks, dozens of them densely packed.There are also complex crossings between the tracks.By moving the frog, the train can be moved to another track.

The webmaster NPC forcibly locked everyone for 10 minutes and introduced the additional operations like a novice guide.Now on the driver's console, there are two more buttons on the left and right.When you need to change to the left track, press the left button. When two railroad tracks cross appear in front of you, the train will drive onto the left track.If there are only two rails, you must choose left or right, otherwise the system will randomly choose for you.

Next, the webmaster introduces the background of the story.

Veil Town is the last town in the hands of humanity's final refuge.After learning that he had failed to send ten fortress agents to hunt down Shasha, the villain became furious and resorted to his ultimate move: the nuclear spider train.

Lin Maqing and the other three were immediately stunned by the name and were speechless.

This name needs to be broken down to understand. First of all, it is nuclear energy, which shows that it is powerful and has unlimited energy storage.Spiders refer to zombie spiders, and trains are trains.

Lin Wu tried to understand and asked: "There is a locomotive chasing us. This locomotive is a spider, or it is a locomotive controlled by a giant spider."

"You can understand that."

The spider train will chase the player's train. As for the attack methods, the player needs to explore by himself.There are currently 42 trains carrying Sasha. All trains will depart at eight o'clock, and they will be chased by an exclusive spider train.

"Only players who reach the curtain can see the railway map to the shelter." The stationmaster motioned for the three of them to follow him into the waiting hall.

There is a huge railway map on the wall of the waiting hall, as dense as a spider web, with a total of 42 entrances.Another advantage of the Curtain Train is knowing where you are.The Curtain Station is to the southeast of the Spider Web Railroad Map, while the other 41 entrances are to the southwest.

The environment around the railway is ever-changing. There are rail tracks that cross big cities, rails laid on country roads, winding mountain rails, lava rails, as well as various extreme environments such as ice, snow, and deserts.

In this spider railway network, there is no exit, no destination, and time is the only end point.

According to the rules, opposite collisions will not cause damage, but compression in the same direction will cause derailment.Regardless of whether the two sides being squeezed are player trains or spider trains.The so-called squeeze refers to the situation where two trains are running parallel and one train suddenly transfers to the other train's track through a frog, causing a squeeze. The result is that both trains derail.

If a repairman is available, the derailed train can be put back on track in about 5 minutes.Without a repairman, the train can be put back on track in about 10 minutes.There will be no defensive battles during this period.

In addition, there are some special stations marked on the map. As long as you pass through the stations, you can get a certain amount of coal, bullets and food.There are also some question mark sites, whether they are a blessing or a curse depends on everyone's luck.

The last benefit of Curtain Station: challenge mission.Players can simulate a duel with a spider train. If they survive for 15 minutes, they will get an electronic map of the spider train, which will show their current location.No loss if the challenge fails.

If you are not willing to challenge, you can upgrade the train, such as reducing coal consumption, increasing the upper limit of the carriage's durability, etc., or you can directly obtain [-] kilograms of coal.

Maya looked at the two of them and asked, "Challenge?"

"Challenge." Qing Lang and Lin Wu answered in unison.
