Chapter 476
It was getting late.
Whether it was the Hunters who had just left the Sanctuary s.p.a.ce or the ones who were still hunting demonic beasts in the wild, they all returned to the Territory one after another.
Those who were far away and could not return had already chosen their positions, set up camp, and set up traps.
In the dark night, the wilderness was filled with danger and danger, rising to the point of danger.
The human field of vision was limited, but the magical beasts were even more violent, and the range of their hatred was even wider. The slightest movement could cause the magical beasts to flock over.
Clang, clang.
The armored train that had been reinforced with thick armor whistled past.
Along with the roars of the magical beasts, the sound of gunfire and explosions could be heard.
Under the dark night sky, there would occasionally be flames exploding.
Tree Shade had now opened up several train routes: Tree Shade – To the East, Tree Shade – South Shade, Tree Shade – Sunreach Line, Tree Shade – Hengcheng Line.
Of the several large shelters in the surrounding area, only the Shuohu Shelter could not open the iron route because of the distance and terrain.
Among them, the green border line was first opened. Every few hundred meters around the line, there was a “Arrow Tower” standing. It was the safest route. It had the most work hours every day and it was also running at night.
The rest of the routes were longer, and the cost of setting up the “Arrow Tower” along the line was too high.
Tang Yu thought that demonic beasts generally would not destroy inanimate objects like the railway tracks. He did not build a defensive building on the whole line. He only opened up some safety points in the middle part of the area with the “Level One City Wall + Level Three Arrow Tower + Level Two Mage Tower”.
Firstly, there were railroad maintenance teams every day, checking the railway tracks along the way.
Secondly, there were also some Hunters who were traveling across the area. They would be safer most of the time, but if there was a train pa.s.sing by, and behind them, countless demonic beasts would roar and chase after the train… it would be rather sad.
It was the best choice to hide in a safe spot at this time.
The magic beasts along these three routes were relatively dense, only at nine o’clock in the morning and three o’clock in the afternoon. However, because they were dozens of kilometers away from Hengcheng, there was still a strong Holy Light Pillar, and the green horizontal line was added.
Even though the sky was completely dark, the train still whistled past.
Tu-tu-tu-tu-tu-tu-tu
Boom! Boom!
Boom!!!
All the windows of the second-cla.s.s carriages and the original train were covered in thick armor. All the pa.s.sengers seemed to be wrapped in a completely sealed iron box. Every time there was a crash, the train would shake, and the inside of the carriage would always be accompanied by some “hiss —” “Ah!” and other inhales and screams.
The pa.s.sengers were like waves, swaying left and right, rising and falling.
Zhang Weilong was not used to it.
He was not an ordinary person.
At the beginning of the apocalypse, he had awakened a very strong innate ability of the five elements. He could control metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
With this kind of powerful ability, Zhang Weilong had killed a second level demonic beast when he had just awakened.
After that, he killed enemies above his level. Four times, five times, seven times, eight times. As he used more of his talent, the five elements worked together. He was in the tenth level of Awakening, and he even killed twelve beasts.
And now, Zhang Weilong was already a master of the thirteenth level of Awakening.
He was even stronger than the number one official in the shelter he was in.
Even if he included the shelter next door, next door… he was undoubtedly the best.
They were treated as guests by the local shelter.
Every time there was a difficult mission, it was the time for their team to appear.
The other four members of the mercenary team were a bit inferior, but each of them had the strength of the peak of the ninth layer. No matter which large shelter they were in, they were ranked.
Even in today’s Saint qualification selection, apart from him, there were two other members who had obtained the qualifications to enter the Holy City.
Zhang Weilong had never expanded the scale of the mercenary group because he looked down on others.
However,
Even if he had all kinds of accomplishments and powerful strength, he still couldn’t compare to… the tree shade line was about to run out of tickets!
The tickets for the private room and the first-cla.s.s seats had all been sold.
He had a big face… In a city that he was unfamiliar with, there was no use for it. He had no choice but to buy five second-cla.s.s tickets. Like sardines, he shook in the crowded carriage.
“It’s all your fault. Why don’t we try taking a train? It’s better to walk over on foot. With our strength, it’s not too dangerous to walk at night.”
“At most two or three minutes. We can endure it. I heard that the Tree Shade Hotel has all the facilities. The nightlife is not worse than before the apocalypse. When the time comes, we can hehe…”
“Anyway, it’s hard for us to go back. It’s not bad to live directly in Tree Shade in the future…”
…
It was already eight or nine o’clock when the train arrived at Tree Shade Station.
“Tree Shade Shelter is divided into the outer area and the inner area of the city.” Zhang Weilong looked up at the thirty meter high city wall. After suppressing the shock in his heart, he said, “The inner area of the city is where the essence lies. After registering our ident.i.ties, let’s go to the inner area of the city first.”
There was an ident.i.ty registration point next to the station.
It was not mandatory, but without a temporary ident.i.ty card, it was difficult to move in the shade.
During the registration, Zhang Weilong and the others released some aura and were immediately led to the VIP pa.s.sage. Soon, everyone had an exquisite card in their hands.
With this card, they could directly pa.s.s through the city gate and most of the areas in the shelter could be unimpeded.
It was very convenient.
The service was also thoughtful, and there were some staff responsible for guiding the traffic along the street.
The depression of having just taken the train was swept away.
Warmth surged in his heart.
They didn’t lack Origin Crystals. Following the directions, they took the strange beasts’ vehicles and arrived at the most luxurious hotel in the Tree Shade.
The bright lights illuminated the place.
The strange plants on both sides emitted a calming air.
The smile of the young lady wearing a cheongsam was especially warm.
That’s right!
Zhang Weilong and the others thought of the low-key and luxurious decorations. Their first impression was that they were very satisfied, extremely satisfied.
So they came to the front desk and ordered for the most advanced suite.
However,
It was full.
The young lady at the front desk replied truthfully.
Hence, Zhang Weilong chose another suite.
However, it was full again.
“?”
The lady at the front desk said helplessly, “Because too many Hunters have entered Tree Shade today, so… there are no empty rooms left.”
Zhang Weilong understood.
Five minutes later, they arrived at another high-cla.s.s hotel.
Five minutes later, they walked out with their heads down.
From the inner area of the city to the outer area of the city.
From the number one hotel in the Tree Shade to an ordinary hotel that was not officially open.
From the Supreme VIP suite, to the inn’s general store, to the rooms for Hunters to live in.
There were none!!!
Even the Internet Cafe rooms, bars, private rooms, and so on had long been targeted by others.
The public toilet had to be lined up at this time.
A strong sense of resentment rose from above their heads.
It was agreed that in the cold and dangerous night, only the Tree Shade Shelter could bring warmth, but now…
The cold wind blew, and the fallen leaves on the street were swept up, flying, and falling again.
Together, they fell, and they dreamed about the beautiful night life.
