Chapter 359 Oracle

Half an hour later, there were 22 more bodies covered with white cloth beside the train. Seeing this scene, Zhang Zhiyuan had a sense of reality of death: players will not face real death, but these people do not have the same ability. For them, death is death, the soul returns to nothingness, and will never open their eyes again.

"Hey, come and see this!" Anthony suddenly shouted at them on the roof of the ninth carriage.

"Can you be quiet at this time?" Asahara Naruko glared at him.

"I will tell you if it's not important? Come up quickly!" the Russian insisted.

Suddenly, several soldiers jumped up on the spot and jumped directly onto the three-meter-high roof. Zhang Zhiyuan also grabbed the steel ladder outside the carriage and climbed up. When he got up there, he saw clearly what the Russians had found: something had written a string of words on the top of this carriage with blood! The blood was partly from the strange bird, but also from human blood... The feathers and human internal organs left around were proof of this.

The words were very simple, only three characters.

"Leave quickly."

Everyone looked at each other, and a chill rose in their hearts.

Who left such a line of words? And in public?

Although the fog creatures were scary, they were still beasts in nature, and there was no way they could talk to humans. And judging from the messy bloodstains and twisted bird corpses, they were obviously not voluntarily painted here.

Sandra looked at the foggy woods around without a trace of wind and whispered, "The forest is expelling us..."

The train did not move forward.

Chaoyang, Kokomochi, Elodie and others, as well as many representatives of the expedition team, all gathered in carriage No. 1 to discuss what to do next.

Due to the large number of participants, the already narrow carriage seemed quite crowded, and with everyone's different opinions, the scene was quite noisy.

"Your Excellency, I think we should set off quickly and reach the edge of the Acropolis before dark, then set up a base and build a defense line." Mekfa insisted loudly, "The space on the train is small, and it is inconvenient for the carriages to take care of each other. Staying on the train will be disadvantageous to us."

The Excellency of God was referring to Chaoyang - in order to move with the group, he had to create another clone. The boundary of the kingdom of God of this clone was only maintained within half a meter beside him, even so, it still cost nearly 100,000 willpower.

If this body is damaged again, his huge willpower inventory will become a state of deficit.

"What do you think?" Chaoyang looked at the others.

"I agree to move forward, but it should be after the wounded are withdrawn." Iris objected, "And there is no need for all the expedition team to go. Most of them are ordinary people and lack basic combat experience. They can just return to the outside of the fog area to camp first, and then enter the Acropolis after the Paradise Church successfully dispels the fog."

"Let the expedition team go back? Their mission is to enter the Acropolis to search for relics. How can the purpose of this mission be achieved without them?" Mekfa immediately objected.

"Then we have to send the injured back no matter what!" Iris argued, "There is no condition to treat the seriously injured here. If they follow us, they will die."

"You are still so naive." The Flower Sword shook his head, "This is a military mission, and death is inevitable. Will the two sides of the war stop fighting because of the injuries of some soldiers?"

"But they are not soldiers..."

"Then who do you think they are? Industry experts? The reason why Lord Rosha chose these people is that it doesn't matter if they lose them! Either they are corrupt construction foremen or thieves in prison." Mekfa said with a gloomy face, "Compared to what we are looking for, their lives are not worth mentioning. If you want to inherit your father's legacy, you'd better learn how to make choices."

Iris opened her mouth, but couldn't refute it. Obviously, this sentence pierced her heart.

"Don't you express your opinion?" Chaoyang asked Kokomochi using the sound transmission technique.

"I don't want to get involved in human disputes. No matter which side you stand on, it will greatly increase the weight of that side. The problem is that the post-god is not omniscient and omnipotent, and can make serious mistakes. There have been cases where the seniors made wrong judgments and caused the entire shelter tribe to be destroyed, so not making a choice is the best choice." Kokomochi replied calmly.

"I am not unfamiliar with the fog, but this is the first time I have encountered a flying fog creature." Sandra said, "As far as I know, there is no similar record of the pioneering group in the entire New World. Maybe this fog area is particularly dangerous. Who can guarantee that we will not encounter more terrible monsters if we continue to go deeper? From this perspective, ordinary people in the expedition team are a burden and will only drag down our progress, so letting them return first is the most reasonable choice!"

"Sandra..." Iris looked at her friend.

The latter gave her a firm look in return, "Besides, the Lord God's Envoy made two preparations before departure. This train has two front and rear locomotives, both equipped with moonstone lamps to dispel fog. As long as they are disconnected in the middle, they can be used as two cars. Am I right, Your Excellency?"

"That's right." Chaoyang confirmed briefly.

"Who will escort the wounded?" asked another royal guard, Moses.

"My people can help." The red-robed man stood up.

"Master Yukel, you..."

"That little girl is right. The brand can only relieve the injury, but it can't really heal them." The man stroked his chest and said, "Let them return to the city now, maybe they can all survive. The God of Fire must not want to see us saving people and forcing them to die."

"I think... we should all return. It is not a wise move to go deeper..." Resk, who had been standing next to Chaoyang, finally couldn't help but said, "I have a hunch that the warning is not a threat, but the last warning of my Lord."

"My Lord? This is..." Mekfa narrowed his eyes.

"He is a believer of Paradise Church and also my assistant." Chaoyang quickly covered up for him, "He should be frightened by the scene just now. My Lord has not issued any oracles."

"What's the matter? Did you sense the call of the God of Hidden Mist?" Then he asked in the player channel, "Be careful not to expose your identity. The people of Star City will not regard your god as a real god."

"Sorry, I said something wrong." Resk also woke up, "Before the strange bird attacked, the Mist Horn had rotated half a circle... and in the past, the horn only rotated when my Lord was looking at the believers. It will rotate."

"So you think these human-faced birds were sent by the God of Mist?"

"No...monsters are monsters, and have nothing to do with my Lord. And the rotation of the horn is also very abnormal. It only rotated half a circle in total, as if it was dragged by something. So I can only say that this is a premonition, not a definite judgment. After all, except for the gods, the horn will never rotate!" He paused, his tone revealing excitement, "and the last time it rotated was eight years ago...I have reason to believe that this bloody warning is a new oracle issued by it!"
