Chapter 2015 Detention

“Isn’t it strange,” the female player in the red headscarf continued: “I feel like they died inexplicably. Not only were they willing to die, they even broke free of human survival instincts, without any resistance or struggle.”

"That's not necessarily true," the female player squatting next to the corpse pointed at their fingers, "You see they are all covered with water, which means that the alien's body is mostly made of water. Even if they struggled, it would be difficult. Leaves a mark of trauma.”

The red scarf pointed back at the scratches outside the window.

“I didn’t say there was only one kind of alien species.” The female player stood up and patted her legs. “On the contrary, it’s a bit strange that no one in the same carriage witnessed their death.”

"Didn't two people see it? It's a pity that they all ran away." The red scarf said lightly: "You didn't say this to find trouble, right?"

"How could it be?" The female player glanced at Xu Huo and continued: "I think that alien species is too strange. Could it involve some special power, such as mental interference or something like that?"

This may be related to the special evolution of alien species, and the special evolution of alien species is often related to games. The few boxes in the car were deliberately opened at night, most likely to do some ulterior experiment.

At this time, the players who went to the front and back of the car to look for people all returned one after another. There is no doubt that the search for people was fruitless. I don’t know whether the two people who ran away were killed or changed their appearance. In short, there was no trace, and they left The player who checked the front of the car told everyone that the reason why the train was forced to stop was because there was a gap under the front of the car as if it had been corroded. The main body of the train's kinetic energy was destroyed, and it was impossible for the car to start running again. Fortunately, The front of the car was not penetrated, and overall, the train was still intact.

"The bad news is that the emergency help system on the train has also been destroyed. I don't know if anyone was notified to repair the train after the staff left. Players cannot contact the nearest track supply department immediately." The man in the second carriage previously The male player straightened his tie on his chest.

 The players gathered in the second carriage sorted out the news they knew.

 First of all, the train is basically broken and it is impossible to move again. The only thing they can do now is to wait.

Secondly, the attack on the train may be related to Stellar Company, so be mentally prepared that no one will rescue you.

 Third, the murderous alien species was outside the train because they checked all the carriages and found no traces of water or alien species, and the windows were not broken.

 Fourth, the two missing two-car players and the boxes that disappeared together may become hidden dangers.

It's fine if you're just an ordinary player, and you won't take out the box for your own safety, but if you're a smart player or simply work for the Stellar Group, that's not necessarily the case.

Now the front and rear doors of all the carriages are open, so the information is shared, and the worst outcome they are currently facing may be that they are selected as experimental subjects by the Stellar Group and abandoned in orbit. If this is the case, the only thing waiting for them may be It's a dead end.

“To experiment with the abilities of alien species, you don’t need to kill all the players in the car.” Someone said, “Isn’t it enough to achieve the purpose of the experiment? This car is full of high-level players.”

Most of the players on this bus are C-level and B-level players, which are considered high in player levels. After all, after excluding super players, the top players are A-level players. But how many high-level players are there in the game? How could the Stellar Group let them go? In your eyes?

“Anyway, let’s find the two people in the second carriage first.” The red scarf said: “One carriage at a time. Do you have any opinions?”

Now that they are locked up here, apart from reinforcing the train, the only thing left is to check the whereabouts of the two boxes.

“Who will take care of these three boxes?” The male player with the tie pointed at Xu Huo’s hand. "Of course he keeps it." The female player in the same carriage said: "He was the one who took it from the beginning. He is the person least likely to open the box."

Most people have no objections. Those three boxes are not safe. Why did they rob them?

However, there are still a few people who feel that it is unsafe to leave the box outside. They should at least put it in the luggage compartment to completely isolate it. What if the box itself has some special paint that can release an odor that attracts foreign species?

Xu Huo also expressed the possibility, so he pushed the box out directly, "You can put it in your luggage compartment."

The box was placed in front of him, but the speaker hesitated. Although the luggage compartment was safer, the first person to get the box would rather hand it over than put it into his own luggage compartment, which inevitably made people suspicious.

 In the end, the three boxes were placed on the table and no one took them, but someone put defensive items on them.

Xu Huo didn't care about the three boxes anymore. Each carriage was basically sealed by players using props in turn, so most of the time the view inside and outside was different. Although the lights were turned off in the carriage, everyone was still worried about attracting the attention of the alien species outside. Therefore, when replacing props, the surrounding areas are also deliberately sealed.

"Don't worry." He stopped a player who was about to replace props and looked outside. It was not absolutely dark on both sides of the track, so he could still make out the surrounding scenery. From this side, there was no alien activity outside. Such a scene, on the contrary, even the water stains left by the previous alien species have dried up.

 “Where did that alien species go?” Xu Huo asked.

"Who knows this?" When the player who was stopped saw him retreating, he quickly came up and sealed the window, and then said: "I just asked the people in the fifteenth carriage. The alien should have moved all the way from the front to the rear of the car. He disappeared when he went down, I don’t know if he went far away.”

 “Honestly, I think the possibility of identifying the person is very small.”

"When the train stopped just now, everyone was in chaos. The two people leaving in the second car could have killed a player and replaced them. We are not familiar with each other. How could we find out? And there is no need to check them. We might as well go out and find the alien. .”

 Xu Huo turned his head and said, "Do you have any ideas?"

The other party was about thirty years old. At this age, he not only had the maturity tempered by hard work in society, but also had the drive of being in the prime of life. He said calmly: "If the Hengxing Group is determined to experiment on the entire vehicle, instead of Rather than just sit back and wait for death, it is better to take the initiative and maybe kill the alien species. The people in the Stellar Group will not be able to hold back and take the lead. They can't seal this orbit forever even if the experiment fails, right?"

"As far as I know, special instruments are installed on the orbit. Players can move around within a certain area close to the orbit without any problem, but if they leave this area, the danger is unpredictable," Xu Huo said.

The relatively safe spaces opened on both sides of the track are mainly to provide a driving environment for trains. Otherwise, how could such a fragile train travel through different spaces without damage?

“Besides, are you sure there is only one or a different species out there?”
