Chapter 152 Train Crossing Borders

Everyone was terrified. They didn't know why they were here, nor what those things were. They just ran back desperately. Even so, those spell creatures continued to fly forward, and the hot fireballs ignited human bodies one after another.

"...How did we enter the gray world?! We were just walking along the rails normally..."

"Where are the rails? Why are they gone? How can we get back?"

"It's so hot... so hot!"

"We finally escaped from District 3...We have to die here before we even reach Aurora City?"

"..."

The desire to survive occupied everyone's mind, but their speed was no match for those tiny spell creatures. Those creatures could jump out of the ice at any time, and they were basically unavoidable.

One after another, the figures turned into fireballs and fell, but they did not die immediately. Instead, they kept struggling and howling in the flames and turned into ashes. Extreme fear spread wildly among the crowd.

Boss Xu ran backwards, holding the crying child. The fire kept illuminating his face, and his pupils showed despair.

"Dad, are we going to die?"

"No... Dad won't let you die!"

Boss Xu gritted his teeth and kept squeezing out his last bit of strength. A black spell creature suddenly jumped out from the reflection of the ice layer beside him, almost brushing past his body. Boss Xu exclaimed and hugged the child. The hot fireball exploded behind him in an instant, sending him flying.

Boss Xu's clothes were burned to ashes, and the skin on his back was burned black. He screamed, gritted his teeth and struggled to stand up from the ground, and continued to run forward.

In front of him was an endless gray sky. On the barren ice field, there was no shelter or route to leave. Ripples swayed from the reflection of the ice layer, as if their retreat was completely blocked.

Boss Xu's eyes showed deep despair.

At this moment, a dazzling beam of car lights suddenly lit up from the ice layer under their feet, like a sun gradually approaching. A fast-moving train suddenly broke through the intersection of reality and the gray world and appeared out of thin air on this ice field!

Boom——! !

The hum of steam broke the silence on the ice field, the huge body of the car broke through the air and whistled, the hard wheels crushed the three spell creatures that were about to break out, and a raging fire burned from the bottom of the car, leaving a long trail of flames on the ice field.

This suddenly appeared train just happened to cross the fence between the fleeing people and the spell creatures, like a black dividing line between life and death, the brakes squeaked on the ice field, and dazzling flames burst from the surface of the ice field.

All the residents were stunned. They stared blankly at the moving train. They saw a figure in a coat standing in front of the gushing steam on the front of the train, pulling the trigger at the spell creatures that kept jumping up.

Chen Ling? !

Seeing that familiar face, everyone was stunned in place. They seemed to be dreaming. They had just seen Chen Ling driving a car away not long ago. How come he came back with a complete train in the blink of an eye?

Bang!

This shot directly turned several spell creatures gathered together into nothingness. As the train slowly slowed down, the figure spoke calmly:

"Why are you still standing there? Get on the train."

At the door of the carriage, a five or six-year-old girl stuck her head out and waved to everyone. Everyone reacted and rushed into the carriage.

Chen Ling stood at the front of the train, his eyes fell on the creatures that kept jumping on the reflection of the ice field, and his eyes narrowed slightly...

The next moment, his figure lightly jumped off the front of the train and rushed straight to the nearest creature.

Sensing Chen Ling's approach, the surrounding spell creatures surrounded here at the same time. They kept jumping in the ice field and reflection, like a school of fish surging on the sea.

Chen Ling did not use the [Tribunal] this time, but relied on his own speed to catch a spell creature flying towards him like lightning. When he held it in his hand, Chen Ling could see its appearance clearly.

This looked like a miniature eel, about the size of a palm and as thick as a finger. The surface was covered with mysterious black spells, which were basically the same as the seaweed Chen Ling had seen on the frozen seashore before...

"Another spell?" Chen Ling frowned unconsciously, "These eels and the disaster in the frozen sea... are of the same origin?"

Chen Ling held the eel in one hand and took out a gun with the other hand to shoot at several other eels flying towards him. With the blessing of [Secret Eyes], Chen Ling's gunmanship was so accurate that he smashed all the eels with a few shots. The dazzling fireballs exploded in the air at the same time, and then disappeared into nothingness like fireworks.

"If attacked, it will explode... Not even at the first level?"

Chen Ling quickly figured out the characteristics of this eel. He held the only remaining "experimental product" in his hand and was about to turn back to get in the car. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of the ice field under his feet and stopped.

He stood on the ice field and slowly squatted down. Ripples rose from the surface of the ice, like the sparkling sea... and deep in the reflection under the ice, a large number of dense black shadows were rushing in one direction, like a school of fish migrating in the deep sea.

These shadows were made up of countless spell eels. Chen Ling looked in the direction they were moving, frowning more and more.

"Aurora City... are their actions all targeted?"

Chen Ling had always thought that disasters were like "beasts" from another world that grew in the Gray Realm, with different characteristics and no rules to their behavior, but the scene before him made him change his mind... These schools of fish were targeting Aurora City. Was it their instinct to live in groups, or was there something guiding them?

Chen Ling didn't have time to think about it, because it seemed that a large number of eels had noticed something was wrong here and began to turn around and attack from the main force. Chen Ling turned back to the carriage and said to Zhao Yi in the control room:

"Go."

"Which direction?"

"Do you see the reflection of the railroad tracks under the ice field? That's the intersection, go there."

The train never stopped, but drove slowly on the ice field to facilitate the residents to get on the train. With Chen Ling's order, the steam hummed again, and the speed quickly increased, rushing towards the reflection that Chen Ling pointed to.

As the shadow of the front of the train appeared on the surface of the ice field, the intersection of the two worlds merged again, and the train drove back to the real world from the gray world. Everyone felt dizzy, and the lead-gray sky was replaced by dim sunlight, and the familiar railroad tracks appeared again on the barren land.

"Except for Aurora City, the intersection of the gray worlds in other places is becoming more and more serious... If this situation continues, it won't be long before the two worlds have no boundaries anymore."

Chen Ling looked at the ordinary ice layer behind the train and muttered to himself.
