The first player to run into the carriage charged into the crowd, knocking a group of people backward.
He fell to the ground and looked back to see the beautiful monster who had been touching her hair greedily shifting her target and leaping high behind Shekh.
Shekh didn't even blink, and made a gesture of opening an umbrella.
The monster exploded above her head with a bang, and the falling blood mist was blocked by a transparent octagonal umbrella with fine white-gold shimmer. The specially made umbrella was very effective at protecting her, and she wasn't stained at all.
Shekh opened his umbrella and walked forward. "Now you only have this one path behind me to take. Aren't you going to move?"
The player lying on the ground felt a chill in his heart. The monster had chased them all the way, and those who were slow had all perished. Yet, this powerful monster hadn't even managed to launch an attack against this unfamiliar woman.
What is she trying to do? Running to the back of the train is like walking into a trap, heading straight for the monsters' lair.
The crowd was still trying to open the door, but time was running out. The monsters at the back of the car, attracted by the golden umbrella, rushed towards them.
Danger was imminent, and finally someone retaliated, unleashing a skill that moved towards the rear of the car.
Shech found a clean table to sit down, occasionally helping the players at the front avoid monster attacks. The entire carriage was whipped towards the back of the train, with only a few people left who were unwilling to move.
Sheh ignored the group of people, walked through the door to the carriage further ahead, and amidst the uneasy gazes of the passengers, she closed her umbrella and went outside.
The thick, grayish-white fog dispersed under the influence of the wind, and the black snake's body shone with a purple luster from the interior lights. The players by the windows saw the flowing blackish-purple and couldn't recognize what was running parallel to the train outside.
The sky was blocked, and he thought the train had entered a deeper area, where the fog outside had solidified into a tangible mist, until a scream of emotional breakdown shattered the harmony, and purple vertical pupils, whose full appearance was difficult to discern, slid past the window.
The oppressive and terrifying atmosphere was so intense it sent chills down one's spine. A male player stood frozen in place, his image reflected in the glass. His pupils, large enough to encompass his entire body, enveloped him like an olive-shaped coffin. The sharp ends of his snake-like pupils focused the light, illuminating his bloodless face.
This must be a snake, he thought, but another voice in his heart said, there could never be a snake this big in the world.
How much of a head does a snake's eye take up? If you can't even see the whole snake through its pupils, how big must its body be? You could run over its body and not feel anything, like an elephant crushing an ant. So is what's outside really a snake?
His remaining ability to think gradually became chaotic, his capacity to accept fear was pushed to its limits, and fear began to crush what he called jealousy.
The crowd was so dense that the hoarse shouts brought the terrified male player back to his senses. The view outside the window turned back into a flowing blackish-purple, and he finally remembered to run away, frantically heading towards the back of the car.
In no time, everyone on the train was crying and screaming as they ran to the back of the train, using whatever they could get their hands on, and most of the monsters that had incited jealousy were eliminated.
Shekh moved very slowly, and the monsters in the carriage were hesitant and timid, giving the player multiple opportunities to ambush them.
...
The player rested in the city. Shi Jinzhe checked the time; a day had passed, and Shekh should be back by now.
He selected the instance that Shekh had just entered and clicked to enter.
Strangers suddenly appeared in the last carriage, and all the monsters and players in the carriage focused their attention on the center.
Having been away from everyone for so long, Shi Jinzhe was not used to the attention he was receiving. He stepped aside and said naturally, "You guys continue."
"No, no, no!" Someone seized the opportunity to block Shi Jinzhe's path. "Are you from outside? We're just one carriage away from getting in. If you can get in, could you help us?"
Shi Jinzhe refused decisively, saying, "I'm busy. I just came to find my wife to go home for dinner."
"I'll help you find her! Who is your wife?"
Shi Jinzhe avoided the man's entanglement, the golden thread connecting the carriage to the outside, Shekh was not far from here.
Standing atop the carriage, Shekh sensed something, glanced at the endless train—it was too far—and decided not to walk.
She transformed back into a full snake form and swam toward the back of the car.
Inside the carriage, Shi Jin swatted away the attacking monster and went to the window.
He attracted monsters, and a swarm of monsters, whose faces had not yet been perfectly transformed, relentlessly pursued him, as if Tang Sanzang had entered the Spider Cave.
A ghostly hand reached out to grab his shoulder, but just as it was about to touch him, it withdrew with a "whoosh".
"Ah! That, that... it's happening again!"
"Not again?"
"Quickly! The monster is trying to hide. Seize the opportunity to kill it!"
"Hey! You white-haired guy," someone kindly called to Shi Jinzhe, "Quickly crouch down, don't look out the window! It's dangerous outside, even the monsters in the dungeon are afraid of that."
A group of people used "that" to refer to the mysterious thing they dared not look at, but after saying "that" for a long time, no one could give a specific description.
The monsters roamed about, and Shi Jinzhe sensed something and removed the sealed glass window.
He steadied himself against the window frame, and at the perfect moment, called out to the giant purple snake that appeared outside the window, "Wife."
When Er Kang tried to dissuade him, the man who had been squatting down suddenly flared his nostrils wider than his eyes.
What is this man saying?
Wife?
What wife? Whose wife? Where is your wife?
He stood there bewildered in the wind, his face showing utter confusion.
"Why are you here?"
The monster that hadn't managed to escape after Shi Jinzhai was shattered by Shekh's voice. He braced his arms against the window frame, leisurely as if admiring flowers by the window, unaffected.
"I've come to pick you up so we can go home for dinner."
If he doesn't come, Sheikh will most likely stay in the car until the dungeon ends, just to sit a little longer.
If a train were assigned to each instance, Shi Jinzhe doubted that she could voluntarily spend every day in the instance.
His behavior was too normal, but the fact that he called a giant snake "wife" was bizarre and left the players dumbfounded.
I can't think of any adjectives to describe it. It feels like my soul has been ripped out. My mind is blank. I want to look but I don't dare. I'm afraid of being attacked, but I also want to see more of what might happen between people and snakes.
"Go back?"
Shi Jinzhe hadn't seen her use her snake form for the past few months, so he didn't urge her and quietly admired her.
"Did you shrink your body as well?"
The full power regained should not be smaller than the bones of the bone wall; Shekh must have intentionally controlled the form.
"Minimum".
Sure enough, her breath now creates a gust of wind.
Shi Jinzhe touched the scales on her cheek. From another perspective, he looked like he was squeezed into a blind spot, and the window frame without glass was his only protection.
The player, who was trying his best to minimize his presence, couldn't understand where the infatuation in Shi Jinzhe's eyes came from. If he were a hundred thousand miles away from that giant serpent outside, he could say it was the masterpiece of the creator, but now he only felt fear.
Why won't this snake agree to go home...?
Please, just go!
If she doesn't come back soon, he'll go back to his mother's womb.
"How terrifying! Snakes are scary, but people are even scarier..."
He muttered something to himself.
Shi Jinzhe heard it, but ignored it.
It doesn't matter what others think. Those who don't understand can only see the irrationality. They can't experience the satisfaction of their adrenaline rush when their senses are struck by a miracle, and their souls are filled.
Ah, his wife is perfect.
