Chapter 166
Yitu didn't expect to meet the sika deer Dong Huan in the A-shaped tower.
On the 54th floor of the Plum Blossom Tower, an infinitely looping white train is slowly pushing through the emerald green waves, heading towards the unknown end.
The sky is blue, the sun is shining, and the waves are gentle and lingering, forming a superb landscape painting.
When Yitu first boarded the sea train, he was also shocked by the endless blue sea and sky in front of him.
The floors of the A-shaped tower are not confined to ordinary spaces, but more like a world of wonders.
Even though Yitu knew this a long time ago, he was still impressed by the rich imagination of the game creator.
No one knows the power and operating principle of this train, nor how the tracks and supports needed for the train are built on the sea.
No one cared about these technical issues that were already beyond the scope of reality. Players just took a quick look at the scenery outside the window and quickly searched for all the information they could know.
The terminus of the sea train is called End of the Moon Rock. The young stewardess said that End of the Moon Rock was once the last stop of the only city in the world.
After a long journey, all sea trains will eventually enter the Moon Rock for inspection and maintenance.
However, just three years ago, the tide once again ruthlessly swallowed up the city, turning the last paradise into a bleak history.
The pretty stewardess also said that originally the Sea Train had many routes, and the trains included numbers 899, 367, 529...
Since the land disappeared, the trains have met every three months according to their scheduled routes.
However, more than half a year has passed, and they have never encountered 899, 367...
She remembered the numbers of each train so clearly, as if she was the only one who knew that they had ever existed.
Yitu tried to ask the train number of their train. The attendant looked at him with a very sad look and softly said a string of numbers.
391 is the train number of this train, and it is also the last remaining sea train.
The train screen was still showing the name of the terminal station, End of the Moon Rock, but no one looked at it with expectation anymore.
The sea train is very spacious. Due to the long journey time, the train compartments are divided into soft seat areas and sleeping cabins.
The soft seats are arranged in rows of three or four, not too close together.
Although there are partitions between each seat and the seats can be folded down for sleeping, there is indeed no personal privacy at all.
In comparison, the sleeping cabin is much quieter and more comfortable.
Not only does it provide independent personal space, but the food is also more abundant than that in the soft seat area.
Of course, the ticket price for the soft seat area is only 6 points of tower climbing bonus value, while the sleeping cabin requires 18 points of tower climbing bonus value.
There were so many players getting on the bus that they stood at the ticket counter, body to body, waiting for the attendant to register them one by one.
Yitu’s tower climbing reward value was quite high, nearly a thousand points, but he asked for a soft seat ticket without thinking.
It’s not that he is stingy with the reward value, but there is really no need to buy a sleeping cabin.
He would rather crowd together with other players so that he could create some difficulties for those who were trying to take advantage of the situation and trip him up.
He originally thought that as the level increased, the number of players sent by the King of Hearts to keep an eye on him would gradually decrease.
After all, after the 50th floor, Yitu can freely choose the color of the tower floor.
What's more, there are so many subspaces on each floor of the tower that it is difficult for players to enter the same space unless they deliberately time it.
However, these people used some unknown means to catch up all the way to the 50th floor.
Yitu couldn't get rid of them, and he vaguely guessed that he probably had some special marks of some players on him, so they recognized him without distinction.
These players hid very well in the crowd and did not show their presence. If you did not use divine sense to detect them, it would be difficult to detect their presence.
Whenever Yitu reaches a critical moment of passing the customs, these people will suddenly appear and do bad things.
During one of these incidents, Yitu almost fell into a large meat grinder and was ground into meat paste.
If he had not reacted in time and immediately used the Wind God's Binding to protect his head, the long sword would have been stuck in the machine and unable to work, and he would have narrowly escaped the disaster.
For a moment, Yitu really wanted to kill him, but the player who used the imprisonment card on him turned around and walked into the stone gate without any desire to fight after giving him a strange smile.
Since then, Yitu no longer dared to let his guard down. Every time he entered a new tower level, he would immediately release the Divine Mind Card to detect the player's consciousness.
A small number of players had god-level defense cards, which partially resisted his consciousness invasion, but more were completely defenseless.
Among the people sent by the King of Hearts, no one can resist his divine consciousness for the time being.
Firstly, the Emperor Minghuang did not know Yi Tu's background, and secondly, there were too few defensive god-level cards, almost one in a hundred.
In this way, Yi Tu seemed to be in a passive position, letting these people play around in circles, but in fact he had already known everything he shouldn't know.
The Emperor Minghuang's plan ended up in vain.
When Yi Tu read the information fed back by the divine consciousness, he was slightly stunned.
He tried to detect the players sitting around him: an old man, a middle-aged uncle, and a young man with premature gray hair.
The young man was very thin and not tall, only about 1.65 meters, with skin as fair as a little girl.
But in fact, he is indeed a little girl.
Yitu's fluctuations in consciousness quickly attracted the man's attention. The young man raised his head in shock, his pair of black eyes were very gentle and moist.
This person is Dong Huan, the sika deer who used to be by the Night King's side and the ex-spouse of the Spade Queen and the Flower Umbrella.
Since Dong Huan's card is also of the spiritual type, Yi Tu will be discovered by the other party while spying on her.
However, Dong Huan didn't know Yi Tu's identity. There was a hint of fear in his eyes, but he pretended to be calm and spoke to him.
"Hello, my name is Zhuo Kai, what's your name, sir?"
Yitu glanced at her calmly and frowned.
"If it's not your real name, why bother telling me?"
Dong Huan was stunned for a moment and didn't understand what he meant for a moment.
"That's true, sir, but how many people would use their real names in the game?"
"For a low-level player like me who has no self-defense ability, even if I use my real name, others won't be able to remember it."
Dong Huan smiled awkwardly. She defended herself without causing Yi Tu any disgust.
Yitu lowered his eyes and fiddled with the ticket in his hand, saying nonchalantly:
"Yes, but even though I haven't met you many times, I do know your real name."
"You are not some low-level player, Mr. Zhuo Kai..."
Dong Huan was completely stunned when he heard this. He quickly looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to them. Then he whispered:
"Who are you? This is not the place to talk."
Yitu didn't say anything, but just stood up and walked towards the ticket office and bought a half-hour sleeping cabin ticket.
He tilted his head slightly to look at Dong Huan, and his mind instantly conveyed his master's words.
Cabin 87, come here, little deer.
Yitu opened the door of the sleeping cabin and went in, leaving a gap for Dong Huan.
After waiting for a long time, Dong Huan still didn't come in, but Yi Tu was not in a hurry.
Sika Deer was very alert, not to guard against Yi Tu, but to prevent other players from recognizing her identity.
After a while, Dong Huan came. The sleeping cabin was not big, and her thin body did not take up much space.
"Who are you? I don't have the impression that there is no such person as you." Dong Huan went straight to the point.
Yitu was in no hurry to reveal his identity, but instead asked:
"Why did you get yourself into this state? Are you hiding from the Night King's men?"
Dong Huan hesitated for a moment, then confessed:
"Yes, I'm hiding from King of Clubs and his men."
The deer's betrayal of the Night King has touched his bottom line. Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Dong Huan can only fight the Night King to the death.
However, she alone was no match for the Night King, and could not even defeat his men.
So she found Queen of Spades and Umbrella, who had the same goal, and tried to bring down the Night King.
Their plan was very good, but who could have imagined that Huasan would change his mind halfway and want to end their marriage no matter what.
As a result, the identity and position of the sika deer suddenly became extremely embarrassing.
Without the protection of the Spade Queen's umbrella, the Night King's men hunted him down even more unscrupulously.
Dong Huan hasn't been to the card room for a long time, only because the Night King and Crow have a good relationship.
The horrifying information collection and marking capabilities of Fei Ya meant that once a player entered the card room, their identities would be exposed indiscriminately.
Dong Huan was afraid of running into the Night King's men. Even though the probability was very small, once he was recognized, there was a high probability that he would be doomed.
She didn't dare take any risk and could only find a way to contact Huasan and try to persuade him to change his mind.
However, Huasan's focus was all on Song Jingchen. Dong Huan tried to contact him many times but failed. He waited and waited, and finally the tower climbing activity came.
"The Raven's Mark indicates that the Night King cannot give one to each of his men. Only members of the Curiosity Hunting Team are eligible to receive it."
Dong Huan explained:
"Most of the people who hunt me down still rely on my appearance and features to identify me."
"I had no choice but to disguise myself as a man. I just wanted to pass the level quickly and leave."
"You...are not the Night King's man, are you?" Dong Huan asked cautiously.
Facing Dong Huan's uneasy look, Yi Tu shook his head.
"How could I possibly be associated with him?"
"You are...?" Dong Huan's heart moved, and he vaguely guessed who the vague shadow was.
"Just another queen you're not familiar with."
Dong Huan was stunned and said in a lost voice:
"Are you the Red Queen?"
"What a coincidence." Dong Huan smiled bitterly.
"Who would have thought that after the Autumn Joint Tournament, you'd already grown to a point where I could never catch up."
Yitu said nothing, just smiled slightly.
It took Dong Huan a while to put away his complicated emotions, and he suddenly picked up the Spade Queen umbrella.
"Do you know why Huasan was willing to cooperate with me?"
"Maybe in your eyes, I'm the third person who came between Hua San and Song Jingchen, and the one who destroyed their relationship."
A trace of melancholy flashed across Dong Huan's eyes. "But I think that emotions are just a joke in games."
"I asked Huasan to bind her to me as a couple, firstly to tie her interests together, and secondly to protect my own safety."
"You may not have a good impression of me. Sometimes I also think I am the vicious supporting character, but..."
"I just want to survive, I just want to live."
Yitu saw a flash of tears in Dong Huan's eyes, "If you betray the Night King, you will die. If you stay with the Night King, you will die too."
Yitu frowned slightly when he heard this, "Why?"
Dong Huan laughed and said:
"Because I know the Night King's fatal weakness."
Yitu was stunned for a moment. You know, the Night King has a powerful repair ability and is almost immortal and invincible.
However, Dong Huan easily told him that the Night King had a fatal weakness.
"I know exactly what kind of person he is: cunning, treacherous, selfish, and suspicious. He can't stand any threat."
"Whether I betray him or not, I'll die. It just so happened that Huasan wanted to win the card, so we tied the knot and reached a cooperation."
"But the cooperation failed..." Dong Huan suddenly looked up at Yi Tu and asked:
"Do you think I can survive?"
Yitu didn't say anything, but just looked back calmly, the answer was in his silence.
Dong Huan chuckled and sighed.
"Life and death have already been determined. It's just a matter of surviving."
Dong Huan opened the door of the sleeping cabin. Before leaving, she seemed to remember something and turned her head slightly and said:
"Queen of Hearts, do you know?"
"Actually, we have the same fate, but yours is better than mine."
Yitu couldn't help but frown.
