Chapter 973 The Seventh Day
"call……………"
Stepping out of the carriage, Saya Gaocheng was somewhat nervous. She put her hand on her chest and took a deep breath. After surviving in this world until now, Takagi Saya and the others are no longer just students. They know that this world is completely different from before, and how they can survive in such a world is not clear to Saya Takagi herself.
But in any case, from the current point of view, this train is indeed an ideal refuge for them. Of course, the premise is that they can survive the blood moon night...
Can they really survive the blood moon?
To be honest, Takagi Saya doesn't have much confidence in this.
But no matter what, we still have to talk about what needs to be said.
Thinking of this, Takagi Saya puffed up her chest, then walked to the dining car again, stretched out her hand and opened the door.
"Wow."
The carriage door opened, and the entire dining car was quiet, with only the melodious music echoing inside. For a moment, Takagi Saya felt as if she had traveled through time and returned to before the disaster, as if those terrible disasters and zombies had never existed, and she was just traveling on the train...
If only that was the case.
Saya Gaocheng smiled bitterly, walked into the dining car, looked around, and saw that everything on the tables around him had been cleaned up - who did this?
"Ah, good evening."
At this moment, a voice suddenly came. Hearing the voice, Saya Gaocheng turned around and saw a blond girl sitting on the dining table on the other side of the dining car, saying hello to herself.
"Ah, good evening...Miss Mary."
Looking at the other party's golden right eye, Takagi Saya quickly recalled her name. After all, the characteristics of these people in the trial court are all obvious. Of course, for Saya Takagi, she was somewhat relieved when she saw Mary. If it were other people in the Tribunal, such as Lumière and Eclair, she wouldn't know how to greet each other. Ogis and Qianwei didn't pay much attention to the survivors like themselves. On the contrary, Mary looked elegant and well-educated in her behavior, just like a young lady...
Well, it makes Takagi Saya feel somewhat close to her.
"Can't you sleep? Miss Gao Cheng?"
"No, I just have something...Miss Mary, what are you doing?"
As he spoke, Saya Takagi walked towards Mary, and then he saw a notebook spread out in front of the other party's table. Mary also held a pen in her hand, and a cup of steaming coffee next to her, as if she was recording something. .
"Ah...I'm just collecting materials."
Sensing Saya Takagi's gaze, Mary smiled sheepishly, then put away her notebook.
"material?"
"Yes, a world on the verge of doomsday, a group of brutal and terrifying zombies, and people struggling to survive in it... To be honest, this is the first time I have experienced such a thing, although it is not that I have never been exposed to similar things, but... …”
As she spoke, Mary looked at her notebook.
"This tragic situation of the world being completely destroyed and whether human civilization can continue to survive is really thought-provoking..."
"Well………………"
Hearing Mary's emotion, Takagi Saya didn't know what to say for a while, but she coughed slightly and then changed the topic.
"Actually, Miss Mary, there is something I want to discuss with you."
"Huh? What's the matter?"
"Is such that……………"
After all, it was a matter of asking for help. When it came to this, Saya Gaocheng was a little unsure, but whether face or life was more important was not a problem for her.
"We...have nowhere to go, so can we stay on the train? Of course, we won't do it for nothing. No matter how dangerous it is, we are willing to do it!"
"Why?"
I have to say that Mary was really surprised by Saya Takagi's request.
"Stay on the train?"
"Yes, we want to be able to stay on the train and work for you."
"Work??"
"Yes... We are willing to do anything! Please be sure to take us in!"
"this…………………"
Seeing Saya Takagi lowering her head and pleading desperately, Mary frowned.
"I will make a decision after reporting this matter to Mr. Duanmu. Although I think Mr. Duanmu will not care, is this really okay? Let me state in advance that from a certain point of view, this train is the most dangerous. of."
"What Miss Mary is saying is, do you want to go to the danger zone?"
"Well, that's basically it..."
Mary also sighed silently. She and Duanmu Huai had been together for so long, and Mary had already figured out each other's behavior patterns. Investigate something, find the most dangerous place here, dive in and kill them all, then you'll be fine... Well, after all, that's what Duanmu Huai has always done.
"Why go to the danger zone?"
I have to say that Saya Takagi was quite surprised when she heard Mary's answer. Although she also guessed that since this group of people were traveling by train, they must have a destination. But they didn't expect that their target was actually a dangerous zone——!
The so-called danger zone is the area where the zombies first broke out on a large scale. The zombies broke out in those areas first, and then the government at that time launched nuclear bombs to eliminate the zombies. As a result, the zombies were not eliminated, but mutated under the influence of radiation and became extremely terrifying. Takagi Saya and others also heard from Aiden and Joel that such a place is simply hell. Not only is the radiation inside excessive, but even the zombies are extremely powerful. Humans are not their opponents at all.
Even "couriers" like Aiden would go around the danger zone when they encounter it.
And now, they are actually going to take the initiative to get in?
"We are not here just to survive, Miss Gaocheng. The goal of the Tribunal is to protect humanity and eliminate all dangers to humanity, so Mr. Duanmu will definitely go to the danger zone and find a way to eliminate the dangerous existence that threatens this world. So, if you want to live a safer life, I suggest that you get off the train at other gathering points as much as possible."
"This............"
It must be said that Mary's answer really exceeded Gaocheng Saya's imagination, so that she couldn't say anything for a while, so she could only nod silently and turn around and leave.
After returning to the carriage, Gaocheng Saya also told others what she had heard from Mary, and everyone was shocked.
"Hey? Are they going to the danger zone?"
"Wow... To be honest, looking at their equipment, it's not surprising........."
Thinking of the heavy equipment on Duanmu Huai, Miyamoto Li was also sweating. Indeed, it didn't look like an ordinary zombie.
"Then... do we still have to stay on the train?"
Faced with the question raised by Ciri Alice, everyone fell silent for a while. Indeed, their original intention was to find a safe place to stay. But this train that took the initiative to go to the danger zone did not look safe at all... But before that...
"For us, the safe zone is still too far away."
As she spoke, Takashiro Saya shook her head, and then she looked out the window with a nervous look.
"Tomorrow is the seventh day......"
Then, she murmured to herself.
Blood Moon.
In this world, a nightmare night occurs every seven days. On this day, the moon will turn bright red, and all zombies will become more irritable than usual, and even terrible monsters that are unimaginable on weekdays may appear.
And this day was different from the beginning of the morning.
"I have to say, this is really interesting."
Looking at the scenery outside the window, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but sigh. When I got up early this morning, I saw that the outside was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder, and heavy rain. In addition, the most important point is that I don’t know whether it is due to chemical reaction or some other reaction, the sunlight coming through the clouds is blood red. Under the sunlight, the whole world looks full of some weird colors.
"Is this the seventh day? It looks a bit weird."
Eclair and Lumiel also frowned and looked outside. They didn’t know if it was their illusion or some kind of induction brought by the blood-red light. They always felt that the dark shadows outside were like monsters hidden in the shadows, shaking their bodies constantly, just like a group of demons dancing wildly.
As for Mary, she took a notebook and observed and recorded outside.
Compared with Duanmu Huai and others who looked like tourists, the survivors on the other side were not so calm. Aiden and Joel checked their guns several times since they got up in the morning. Miyamoto Rei and Komuro Takashi prepared their weapons. They even planned to get some wooden boards to nail the car windows shut, but...
"There is no need to be so nervous. It's just a little trouble. Don't worry about it."
It was rejected by Duanmu Huai without any care.
Of course, in their opinion, Duanmu Huai's indifferent behavior was completely out of ignorance of the blood moon, but unfortunately, this was someone else's train, and they had the final say, so Duanmu Huai could do whatever he wanted.
So although they thought this was completely courting death, they had no choice if the other party didn't listen to their opinions.
Soon, time passed, the sun set, and the moon rose.
"Huh............"
Aiden glanced at his watch, tightened his weapon, and carried his bag. The preparations of others were similar. Although they didn't say it, to be honest, most people didn't think that this train could survive the upcoming blood moon frenzy. So what they had to do now, in addition to fighting the upcoming blood moon frenzy, was to find an opportunity to escape from this train.
This was actually very normal. After all, in this world, in this era, most people were more concerned about their own affairs.
"Woo... Bang bang bang bang......!"
It was already evening at this moment, and the rain had stopped at some point. The thick dark clouds had dispersed, and a blood-red full moon hung high in the night sky, shining on the earth in front of them. The whole world was dead silent, with only the sound of the train speeding by echoing around. Everyone stared out the window, holding their breath.
And as they watched, the world outside began to change.
"Woo woo......"
A sound like the sound of the sea waves sounded. At first, I thought it was the sound of the wind blowing through the wilderness, but as the sound got closer, bright red spots appeared in the darkness, and the sound became more and more manic and restless.
"Here they come!"
Aiden clenched the gun in his hand and stared out the window. He saw zombies with red eyes rushing over from a distance on both sides of the speeding railway. They gathered together, hundreds of them turned into a flood-like existence, screaming shrilly, and rushed towards the train!
While taking medicine, I started to update meow...
