Chapter 114

Chen Yan has excellent physical condition and is over 1.9 meters tall. Standing in a crowd of people, he stands out like a crane among chickens.

Assistant Lin rubbed his eyes vigorously, and when he saw Xingnuo looking at him, he exclaimed again.

"Xingnuo?!"

Xingnuo was looking around the carriage with a pair of round, bright eyes. When he heard Assistant Lin's voice, he exclaimed.

"It's Uncle Lin!"

When Special Assistant Lin saw the plush pajamas that Xingnuo was wearing and the long tail trailing behind him, he couldn't resist the cute-animal lover and rushed forward.

"Why are you here, Xingnuo? Come and let your uncle hug you."

Chen Yan, who was listening to Qi Yao and the people around him explaining, looked over when he heard the voice and caught a glimpse of Special Assistant Lin wearing a black windbreaker.

"Assistant Lin?" Shen Yan's voice was cold.

Assistant Lin subconsciously stood up straight, and quickly loosened his hand that was pinching Xingnuo's little face, and answered in a serious tone:

"I'm Mr. Shen, what do you want me to do?"

This series of processes was so familiar that even Assistant Lin was stunned for a moment after he finished explaining it.

Then he thought of something and couldn't help but smile awkwardly.

He had completely forgotten that he was no longer in the company, but had been pulled into a copy of the horror world.

Xingnuo covered her cheeks with her hands, looked at the strange Uncle Lin, and asked:

"Why is Uncle Lin here?"

Xingnuo has met Lin, the special assistant beside his brother, many times. He is a very strange uncle in private.

Special Assistant Lin couldn't help but sigh when he recalled the experience of being pulled into the dungeon and becoming a player.

"Don't mention it. This world has its limitations. There are many things I can't tell you."

The real world and the horror world are not fully connected. When players meet people from the real world, they cannot reveal more information.

Of course, there is another reason that many players do not want to reveal.

Special Assistant Lin's teammate came over, holding a cigarette, and looked up and down at Shen Yan and the little one in his arms.

"Lin Yan, is this your previous boss?"

Special Assistant Lin nodded and called him "cousin".

"They should be ordinary people who were accidentally pulled in. Cousin, Xingnuo is still so young, can you help them get out?"

After Special Assistant Lin was accidentally pulled into a horror world after get off work the day before yesterday, he only managed to complete a simple novice copy.

Fortunately, after arriving in the central city, Special Assistant Lin found his cousin who had unexpectedly disappeared three years ago, and followed him to join a high-level team.

Assistant Lin has not yet been assimilated by the players. He has a strong sense of empathy and does not want such a young Xingnuo to die in this dungeon.

My cousin could see that Special Assistant Lin was worried and couldn't help but sneer.

"Put away your useless sympathy. This dungeon is of a high level. It's already difficult for us to clear it and save our lives. We don't have the extra energy to help others."

Assistant Lin wanted to say something, but his cousin grabbed his arm and pulled him quickly to the back row.

"Okay, let's go!"

When Xingnuo heard these words, he scratched his little face, feeling a little confused.

"Brother, what do they mean?"

Shen Yan had a cold expression and rubbed Xingnuo's head.

"It's nothing, don't worry about them."

As soon as the words fell, Qi Yao's voice rang out:

"Do you know those two people just now?"

Qi Yao sensed something was wrong and looked at the people in the back row of the car with his eyes slightly narrowed and a serious expression.

Shen Yan didn't want to get involved in Qi Yao's actions, so he didn't respond.

However, Xingnuo looked at Uncle Qi Yao, then at Assistant Uncle Lin who was already sitting in the back row, and couldn't help but sigh.

"The adult world is so complicated."

Just like the checkers game that Xingnuo played, it seemed that all of a sudden, everyone was divided into several camps, each becoming an enemy.

Xingnuo couldn't understand, and his little brain couldn't make sense of it, so he could only hug his brother's neck and lie in his arms.

Xingnuo yawned, his eyes were red and he looked very sleepy.

Chen Yan protected Xingnuo's head, found a seat in the carriage and sat down first, and said softly:

"Go to sleep. I'll take you home when we get off the bus."

Children sleep a lot, so usually at this time it is time for Xingnuo to go to bed.

But Xingnuo tried hard to keep his eyelids open and didn't want to sleep.

He himself couldn't explain why, he just wanted to take another look at this strange train and remember more things.

A tear oozed from Xingnuo's eyes. He shook his head, regained consciousness for a few seconds, and said quickly:

"I'm not sleepy."

As he spoke, Xing Nuo raised his head again and looked at Uncle Qi Yao who was walking towards them.

Qi Yao had an untidy beard and was holding a cigarette between his fingers in an impatient manner. When he saw Xing Nuo, he put the cigarette behind his ear.

"The current situation is very complicated. I can't tell you more. You must protect Xingnuo. I will definitely find a way to get you out."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yan glanced at him, hummed, and said nothing more.

Qi Yao knew that Chen Yan was the boss of a large company with a cold personality, very similar to those Zhou Paopi capitalists mentioned outside.

Sighing, Qi Yao took out a mint from his pocket and placed it in Xingnuo's palm.

"Xingnuo ate some candy, just go to sleep, nothing will happen to you."

Xingnuo took the candy, put it in his mouth, and said softly:

"Uncle Qi, you have to be careful too."

Although Qi Yao did not explain anything, Xingnuo had already sensed the danger of this carriage and understood that they were no longer in the orderly real world.

Qi Yao nodded and left. After meeting with his teammates, they discussed in a low voice.

"It's been a full day since we came in, and the number of ordinary people is still increasing."

"Captain Qi, what should we do? If this continues, not only this carriage, but the entire train will be full!"

"But we can't find the core monster, so we can't kill it!"

Qi Yao also had a headache. He rubbed his hair in annoyance and glanced at the few people in the back row of the car who behaved very differently.

"I suspect those people might be 'players'."

The word "player" was also something Qi Yao accidentally heard from several other people when he first got on the bus.

Players should have some tasks or hints in their hands, and as long as they succeed, they can leave this carriage.

But ordinary people can't do that.

Ordinary people who were accidentally pulled in have never experienced any danger and have a shallow understanding of the dungeon, making them easy to be exploited by players or monsters.

And only after they kill the monster completely can they leave.

Qi Yao still hasn't figured out the requirements to become a player.

However, one thing is certain: the player has completely disappeared from the real world, and it is still unknown whether he can return to reality; ordinary people can return to reality immediately as long as they can kill the monster!

Qi Yao also tried to communicate with the players at the beginning, but unfortunately the players were very vigilant. They only listened to two sentences and then left to other carriages.

Progress stalled again.

The train salesman, who was as fat as a ball, came over pushing a cart and shouted:

"A variety of sweet and delicious energy stones! And the fruits produced from the tulip manor are extremely sweet!"

When Xingnuo heard "Tulip Manor", his little ears moved and he couldn't help but say to his brother:

“Dad likes to grow tulips, too.”

A flower that carries trace amounts of toxins but blooms beautifully.

Shen Yan hummed, glanced at the bananas on the cart, and thought that Xingnuo ate little for dinner, so he stopped the salesperson directly.

"Have a banana."

The salesperson walked around for several rounds and finally met a buyer. Regardless of whether he was a player or an ordinary person, he immediately approached him and said with a smile:

"One hundred star coins! How do I pay, points or cash?"

The player in the back seat of the car said "Fuck!" and muttered softly:

"It's so expensive! Nothing in this dungeon is cheap!"

"What a rip-off! If you don't have money to buy it, the monster salesperson will probably explode!"

Special Assistant Lin had been paying attention to the situation here, and when he saw this, he stood up, thinking that he just happened to have 100 points, so he could help Mr. Shen pay.

Although Mr. Shen usually has a strict personality in the company, his bonuses and wages are several times higher than those in the same industry.

Just think of it as repaying Mr. Shen for his kindness.

The ordinary people around were confused:

"Star Coins? What are these, and what are points?"

No one answered, even Qi Yao looked over with an expression that said "No way, buddy, you're going to die."

Chen Yan peeled the banana and fed it to Xingnuo's mouth first.

The salesperson's smile gradually became gloomy, and when he looked at Chen Yan and was about to say that if he didn't have money, he would pay with his life, Chen Yan took out two star coins from his pocket.

Exactly one hundred dollars.

The salesperson took the money, said happily, "Take your time," then walked away pushing the cart and twisting her waist.

The others were stunned and came over to ask:

"Brother, where did you get the money?"

Chen Yan still had no expression on his face. He helped Xing Nuo wipe the corners of his mouth that were stained with banana mud and said perfunctorily:

"I found it in the car."

As soon as these words were spoken, the players in the back row all lowered their heads and searched their pockets, still thinking, "I can't be so unlucky, right?"

I lost a hundred star coins as soon as I got on the bus? !

The elder brother who was asking the question in the back row sighed and spoke enviously:

"You're lucky, but it's a waste to buy a banana."

After this incident, the ordinary people who had just arrived also found a place to sit down. They felt uneasy, but they could only wonder what was going on.

After eating the banana, Xingnuo burped and touched his stomach.

"After eating, take a nap and go home soon."

As soon as Shen Yan finished speaking, the aunt next to him suddenly broke down and cried, howling:

"Why go back? We can't go back! I've been in this damn place for a whole day, and this train won't stop!"

Xingnuo was startled and leaned back, but couldn't help but comfort him:

"It's okay, Auntie. We will definitely be able to go back."

The aunt was still crying, and her tears could not stop. Thinking of the tragic deaths of those people before, she always felt that it would be her turn in the next second.

Before she finished crying, there was commotion in the next carriage.

"Ahhh! Stop chasing me!"

"Is this a real monster? Stop running around!"

“Someone died!”

When a sharp sound was heard, Qi Yao and his team members rushed to the next carriage immediately.

The rest of the people sat where they were, stiff and not daring to move, looking up in panic at the other car that had an accident.

Xingnuo leaned on the back of the chair and looked forward with his head raised.

Unfortunately, there seemed to be a gray barrier between the carriages, so I couldn't see what was inside at all. I could only hear increasingly noisy noises.

When Qi Yao came back, the others surrounded them and asked:

"What's going on? What happened over there?"

Qi Yao and his teammates sighed and said with a headache:

"Many people died in that carriage, and no one knows why."

This is another difference between ordinary people and players.

Players have a lot of life-saving methods at their disposal, as well as the system's background prompts about this dungeon, so they are much calmer than ordinary people who are confused and still don't know the situation.

Perhaps, for ordinary people, being pulled into a dungeon is really a dead end.
