Super Dimensional Wizard

 The conductor knocked on the door.

  No sound was made, but the ripples caused by the vibration of the air were already transmitted into the cab.

 About three seconds later.

The door slowly opened, and the whole process was still silent.

When the door was completely opened, a colorful, distorted light and shadow was revealed in front of it.

The conductor was not surprised by this, and took a step directly into the light and shadow.

The black boots were surrounded by light and shadow. Soon, the light and shadow seemed to be alive, slowly climbing up from the feet until the conductor was completely covered...

At the same time, a beep sounded in the conductor's ears.

　　　「Identity test passed.」

　　　　　　　　——　　

　　　「Space-time correction successful.」

“Welcome, three-star conductor, Mr. Starworm.”

 As the sound fell, the light and shadow also dispersed.

At this moment, the conductor "Starbug" has arrived at the real cab. It's just that the inside of this cab is different from what ordinary people imagine.

Over the head is a transparent glass dome with a shimmering starry sky projection on the glass.

 Through the dome, you can see the void with constantly changing scenes outside.

This exactly corresponds to the scene outside the Xinghai Train.

Under the dome, there is a circular hall with a black marble floor. The marble is very smooth, reflecting a thin layer of light under the starry sky projection.

The hall is empty, without any walls or any utensils, not even facilities for driving.

 There is only a stone statue in the middle of the hall.

This statue looks like a flame demon, but there is no flame on it, only pieces of fallen embers.

 As the starworm approached, the embers on the statue peeled off bit by bit like dust.

When the starworm walked to the statue, all the rubble on its body fell off, revealing its "true face".

 —an owl about one meter tall.

This owl is wearing a red train conductor's uniform, has a long gray beard, and has no white eyes, only pitch black. If you look carefully, you can see a bright sea of ​​stars in the dark pupils.

 Starworm stared at the owl, silently.

 This was the first time he saw this owl.

Judging from its red uniform, this owl is undoubtedly a train conductor. I just don’t know where the train conductor of this shift ranks among the star masters?

 The order is very important and represents the importance the Star Master attaches to it. The higher the ranking, the more favored the Star Master is, and the more comprehensive its abilities are.

However, for conductors like Starworm, the order is actually not that important. The most important thing is its character.

As long as his character is not as bad as the previous demon, that will be fine.

 After all, for the rest of the journey, if nothing unexpected happens, Starworm will work with the train conductor in front of him.

Xingworm prayed silently in his heart and made a half-kneeling salute to the owl.

  “Forgive me.”

The owl seemed to have just woken up, stretched out, and then slowly spoke.

Its voice is not as aged as its appearance, but rather young, but its tone is rather lazy, as if it has not woken up.

 Starworm stood up, still lowering his head.

“You are the only three-star conductor of the 199th auxiliary train, Starworm.”

 Starworm nodded: "Yes, distinguished conductor."

The owl did not speak immediately, but looked down at the broken statue on the ground: "It turns out that my last train conductor was No. 141. That guy was very mean. You can survive under him and be promoted to three stars. It’s not easy either…”

Starworm didn't dare to answer the question. The owl in front of him was also a star master, and he could assign number 141 at will. However, it was just a train conductor, and he didn't dare to say anything bad about the star master. Even if the other party is a former boss, it won't work.

"Nice to meet you. My number is 005. As you can see, I'm just a frail owl in old age." At this point, the owl train conductor coughed a few times to show weakness.

However, Starworm was not deceived by the opponent's "weak" posture at all.

 He was even more nervous inside.

If he had skin, he would probably have chills rising by now.

  005!

 These are the top five rankings of Star Lords!

 The higher the order, the more terrifying it is. Starworm has been on the 199th train of the Star Sea Train for a thousand years, and the largest number he has ever come into contact with is No. 141.

 Thinking of No. 141’s methods, Starworm was already in disbelief.

 The top five rankings are probably even more terrifying.

Although Starworm has not seen the abilities of the first five sequences, he does not dare to underestimate the opponent at all. What frail old owl? This is a lie.

Although Starworm didn’t speak or make any small movements, how could the Owl Train Conductor not know what he was thinking.

It just said with a smile: "I didn't lie. Regardless of my high ranking, it's just because I am more popular..."

Starworm naturally didn't believe it, and just said in a very formal way: "Dear conductor, you are here in person this time. I wonder which star track we will take next?"

Owl: "Are you getting into a routine so quickly? You just came here, shouldn't you ask me first if I want to take a rest?"

Starworm did not answer the call, but said to himself: "The Xinghai train cannot stop for a moment... Now, it is about to arrive at the station, and the train conductor needs to plan a new journey."

The owl waved its wings: "Okay, okay, I will personally draw up a new star path when we get to the station."

 “A new star track?” Star Bug was stunned: “A star track that is not in the 199th column?”

"Yes, the new star track will lead to the dream world." Owl nodded: "This is the section of the road that the star master finally negotiated... The star track has never been paved into the dream world in the past, and this time it is considered the first time. "

 “Dream World?” Starworm: “Are there any living beings there who want to board the train?”

"I don't know." The owl shook his head: "However, the Star Lord said that there are some interesting things happening outside the dream world. Let me go and find out..."

“Maybe we’ll meet some old friends.”

 The Star Lord sent him here just because of his "connections".

 The owl walked to the edge of the dome with a smile, looking at the void outside, his eyes twinkling.

After a moment of silence, the owl turned to look at the starworm: "We will discuss the new star trajectory issue later. Let's deal with the issues left over from the previous one first."

“Tell me, what mess did No. 141 leave behind?”

As the only three-star conductor on train 199, Starworm has a good grasp of everything on the train. When faced with the owl's questions, he immediately started talking.

 After a while, Starworm finished talking about all the events.

Owl yawned and said softly: "Although there are a lot of messes, they are all small things. Only the problem of Cat Doss has not been dealt with well."

 Starworm: "Cat Doss? Is he the guest who was exiled by the former conductor?"

 Star Bug is a little confused. It is normal for the Star Sea Train to be exiled. As long as you violate the taboos on the train, you may be exiled.

 The so-called taboos refer to the rules set by the conductor...

The conductor of Train No. 141 needs to burn a living heart every once in a while as a snack. The provider of the heart is the guest on the train.

It will randomly select a guest. If the guest refuses, he may be exiled.

Not long ago, the former train conductor chose Cat Doss to provide a heart, but what he wanted was not the heart of Cat Doss himself, but the heart of the kitten in his arms.

 In the eyes of Starworm, this is already considered preferential treatment.

But Mao Doss refused without hesitation, because the other party got on the train with a ticket, so the former train conductor could not kill him directly.

 Then he was exiled.

Just when the Star Sea Train crosses time and space, banish him...his ending can basically be locked, and he can only die on the way.

 After all, not everyone can resist the tide of time and space.

Starworm had no complaints about the former conductor's handling of the situation. Because Cat Doss did violate the taboo.

 In his opinion, this matter is not a big problem. Why would the owl say this was something that was not handled well?

"Why?"

Why? The owl chuckled lightly and looked at Starworm: "The reason is very simple. Cat Doss is not only an obsession in the Tewari world, but also marked by the time thief. There are two miracles behind him."

“Being favored by two miraculous beings, especially one who is a time thief, is not simple.”

 “Exile is not a good option. Because based on the opponent’s inner strength, if he is exiled, there is a high probability that he will not die.”

"The best way to deal with it is to find ways to make him violate the taboo further until the shelter brought by the ticket disappears and completely annihilates him, his soul and consciousness. This is the correct way to deal with it."

 This is what is called...to take precautions before things happen and to take precautions before they happen.

 Starworm: "...then turn around now?"

If Cat Doss is not dead, you should be able to find it by turning around now.

"You can find it, but it's no longer necessary." The owl waved its wings to indicate that it was not necessary.

 Starworm: “...Why?”

Owl took a deep look at Starworm: "As a star creature, you should read more about the Train Instructor's Manual."

Starworm didn't understand.

Owl said calmly: "My plan just now was to deal with it from No. 141's point of view. Now I am the train conductor of deputy train 199. I don't want to deal with this kind of thing."

 Star Bug probably understood. He thought for a moment and asked curiously: "Then if you encounter the situation of Cat Doss, how will you deal with it?"

 The owl yawned: "Don't ask me, this won't happen to me."

“Okay, since these problems are just trivial matters, don’t delay, just go to the station, send all the guests away, and I’ll prepare to lay a new star track.”

 Starworm nodded and walked out of the hall.

After passing through a burst of colorful light and shadow, he returned to the carriage.

Step by step, he would open the door of each carriage when he arrived and said to the guests with different expressions in the carriage: "We've arrived at the station. Welcome to the Xinghai Train."

There was clearly a dark void outside the train, but after the guests stepped off, they each arrived at the place they wanted to reach.

 The guests sent off by the same car door, some are even separated by infinite planes.

 But they happened to go through the same door, but arrived at different locations at the same time.

 This is the Xinghai Train.

 A miraculous creation.

After sending away 70% of the passengers, Starworm finally closed the door and signaled to other conductors to greet the passengers who were still in the carriage.

“The next step will be a new journey. I hope you can find your destination on the new journey.”

 After the conductors finished speaking, Starworm was about to go to the cab to see if the new conductor had finished laying the star track.

But before he could move, he heard the sound of an owl.

Xing Chong was stunned for a moment and then returned to the carriage.

 Signal to other conductors.

 After a while, the conductor's voice sounded again in different carriages: "I'm sorry, guests who are still in the carriage will not be allowed to get off the train or stop midway due to special reasons."

 “So, good night, everyone.”

After finishing speaking, a hissing sound resounded in the carriage, and a faint mist was continuously released from the cracks in the door and the holes in the pipes.

After a while, the mist filled the entire Xinghai Train.

 All the passengers who were on the train but had not yet gotten off the train fell into drowsiness under the influence of the mist.

 After all the guests fell asleep, Starworm looked at the other conductors.

 “You should also rest.”

 Confusion flashed in the eyes of all the conductors: "Lord Starworm, is there anything special about the next journey?"

 Under normal circumstances, even if it is crossing dimensions, it will not be so grand. Not only are all the carriages deliberately closed, but the platforms where they stop are not even provided.

Even those powerful guests were forced into slumber.

 After waking up, these guests will definitely cause a lot of problems.

 But the train conductor still made this decision, which puzzled everyone.

 Star Bug sighed: "I don't know what the situation is, but I can tell you that this time the train conductor is in the top ten."

There were exclamations one after another in the carriage.

 When the top ten arrive, something big must happen. No wonder all the guests will fall into a coma...

Xingworm stopped explaining and signaled the other conductors to return to their workstations. He then walked along the long corridor towards the cab.

 After he passed a series of tests and entered the familiar domed hall.

 He suddenly discovered that the originally transparent dome suddenly became blurry.

  It seems that a layer of fog has been added, turning the transparent glass into frosted glass.

"You are here...you don't have to look outside. I have set up the outside. There are some things that you are not suitable to look at now, otherwise you will easily go crazy." The owl stood in front of the frosted glass, and the voice came over.

 Going crazy? Questions flashed through Starworm's mind, but he didn't ask any more questions. After traveling in time, space and dimensions for so many years, he has long understood how deep the darkness lurks outside the world of stars.

It's a good thing he became a conductor, otherwise he would have gone crazy the moment he arrived.

“Your Excellency, conductor, is the star track ready? Can we move forward?”

Owl stroked his long gray beard, turned his head and said: "I thought you would ask me first why I let all the guests fall asleep."

 Starworm: "Your Majesty, of course you have your own reasons for doing this."

The owl smiled: "The star track has been paved a long time ago, and didn't you notice? The train has actually entered the dream world, otherwise do you think they can fall asleep so easily?"
