Chapter 5: Stargate II

The footsteps are gone!

Just as Xingle was about to strike with all his might, the sound of continuous footsteps and breathing that was close at hand suddenly disappeared.

In front of him, a card appeared out of thin air, and gently fell from mid-air onto the aisle of the carriage.

Instead of bending down to pick up the card, Xingle took the hose and waved it around his body a few times to make sure there was anything beside him.

I don't know if it's a person's "thing" should be gone, the feeling of oppression disappeared, Xingle's tense nerves relaxed a little, and he quickly picked up the card on the ground.

The texture of the card looks very similar to ordinary kraft paper, but the touch is not like paper, more like the skin of some kind of animal.

Xingle took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, but found nothing.

There was not a single word on the entire card, only a shrunken star map, the same as the one at the Awakening Town train station, with a red dot on the star map.

Xingle looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see a reason, what does the star map represent? What does the red dot represent?

"With the text on it, you can get in the car again and go back to where you started. ”

Last night, the voice suddenly appeared again, and I still only heard it, but I didn't see it.

"Where is the train going?"

"What's this card?"

"Can I really go back to Awakening?"

After the voice reappeared, Xingle understood that the person who spoke should not be able to do anything to him, so he tried to ask the question in his heart.

"The card is a train ticket, the place you are going to is Yanguo, the period is one year, and after a year, there is no text on the card, and you will never be able to go back to Awakening Town. ”

"What am I going to do when I go to the Yan Country?"

Xingle asked, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, he didn't expect that he still had a chance to return to Awakening Town.

"Go to the carriage and find a seat to sit down, the stargate is almost here. ”

The voice didn't answer Xingle's question, and seemed reluctant to reveal any more information.

"Stargate?"

This is the second time Xingle has heard this name, and the blind old man also mentioned this name yesterday, saying that the void place he saw was the star gate.

"The stargate is the gate of space, the passage through which the Eternal Star connects to other places. ”

After saying this, the voice didn't sound again, and Xingle had more and more questions in his heart.

Yanguo Xingle knows that there are many ancestors in Awakening Town who are from Yanguo, and he himself is one of them.

Well, I don't know where I'm going anyway, since that voice told him to go to Yanguo, let's go, just return to my homeland.

After determining where he was going, Xingle was no longer confused, and dragged his luggage to the carriage to find a window seat and sat down according to the voice's request.

The voice just now specifically mentioned Xingmen, and Xingle estimated that something would happen next.

A passage to the Eternal Star?

Xingle had a lot of things in his head.

In Awakening Town, as long as you don't become an Awakened One, many things won't be known to you, and after you awaken to know more things, you can't tell people who haven't awakened, so many things are like mysteries that make it difficult to know whether they are true or false.

The Awakened who never came back after going out, the alien creatures that inexplicably appeared in the Awakening Town, why is the mission of the Awakened to be protective?

What kind of secrets are hidden behind these things, these are all things that Xingle is eager to know.

Maybe the answer to everything lies in Stargate.

The train was still moving rapidly, looking at the scenery outside the window, Xingle was very apprehensive in his heart, and also had a trace of anticipation.

Time passed slowly, and gradually, the scenery outside the train became blurred, as if it was driving into a thick fog.

Xingle's perception also stalled as the train entered the thick fog, the same feeling he had yesterday when he sensed the void behind the wasteland.

It's not just perception, Xingle finds that time seems to have stopped, and he can't even feel the passage of time.

As soon as this situation appeared, Xingle knew that it should be the star gate that had arrived, and the current place was the place where he couldn't see through with his perception yesterday.

I don't know how long it took, but the train finally came out of the fog, and Xingle noticed that the scenery outside the window had also changed.

The colorful world is gone, replaced by a vast desert.

At the end of the desert, the sun was about to disappear on the horizon, emitting a blood-colored light, which seemed particularly unrealistic, with a hint of bewitching blur.

Just as the sun was completely setting, an even stranger sight appeared between heaven and earth.

Dots of light glowing with blood-red light rose from the sea of sand and floated into the air, chasing and playing with each other as if they were alive.

Soon, half of the middle school was full of this kind of point of light, and that light illuminated the entire desert.

In Xingle's surprised eyes, these points of light slowly converged and disappeared in an instant.

The whole world was instantly plunged into darkness, and after a short silence like death, the wind rose, and the sand mist filled the heavens and the earth.

It was also at this time that Xingle heard the kind of voice he heard at the train station in Awakening Town again, like crying and laughing.

Only this time the sounds didn't last long, and another voice appeared to overpower them.

The voice was like a lot of people singing, neat and majestic, making people's blood boil, but it seemed very tragic.

As the song sounded, a strong light suddenly appeared on the edge of the desert, and a light curtain appeared in an instant, connecting heaven and earth.

The light curtain gradually became condensed and magnificent, and a breath that people couldn't help but want to worship emanated, filling the heavens and the earth.

"Stargate!"

Without deliberately perceiving it, Xingle already knew what was happening in front of him, and his heart was shocked.

"Accumulate the White Bone Forge Star Gate!"

The voice in the carriage reappeared.

"What do you mean?"

Xingle was used to the sudden sound, and stared at Xingmen without even looking back.

"You close your eyes and feel and see what you can see. ”

.

.

sadness

helpless

despair

All kinds of emotions rose from the bottom of my heart, and Xingle's tears flowed silently......

"White bones, a lot of white bones, all white bones under the star gate, some are extremely huge, I don't know what kind of animal bones they are, but the most are human bones, I can't count them at all......"

Xingle said softly, not knowing whether to say it to himself or to that voice.

"Those human bones are the bones of the Awakened. “

"Over the years, countless awakened people have died under the stargate. ”

"This is the fate of the Awakened. ”

The voices in the carriage sounded even more sad.

"What's beyond the stargate?"

Xingle wanted to know at this time, but he didn't say it, and he didn't necessarily answer when he asked, because it seemed to be something that only the Awakened were qualified to know.

"Be sure to see what's outside the stargate, probably the worlds mentioned in my father's notes. ”

Xingle silently said to himself in his heart.

It didn't take long for the stargate to appear, and soon there was only darkness left in the world, and the feeling of time standing still was gone, and the train continued to move at a fast pace.

Intuition tells Xingle that the place he is going to this time is ahead.
