Chapter 180: The Blocked Road
The steam car was moving on the scorched earth, and the speed was very fast, and the wheels rolled up piles of black ash.
After driving a distance, there were no accidents, and everyone gradually relaxed.
However, at this moment, Sululu suddenly seemed to feel something, and raised his head to look at the car driving on the scorched earth.
After staring at the car for a long time, he suddenly shouted loudly: "Hurry up and turn around, turn around immediately." ”
The people on the steam car, as if they couldn't hear Suluru's shouts, also seemed to lose control, and continued to rush towards the burning cracks in the scorched earth plains.
Everyone looked at the steam car in amazement, not quite understanding why Suluru would make them turn back?
But the next moment, everyone on the train watched in horror, and the steam car there suddenly burst into flames.
In an instant, the steam car was completely ignited, and the car and its occupants were all burned to ashes.
Seeing that the car and people were burned to ashes and finally spilled on the scorched earth, everyone on the train was stunned.
After a long time, Shirley came to Sululu's side and couldn't help but ask in a strange whisper, "This, what the hell is going on?"
Sululu whispered with a solemn expression, "It's evil energy, this land is full of evil energy. ”
Hearing Sululu's words, Shirley suddenly took two steps back in fright, and looked at the scorched earth around her with a look of horror on her face.
Speaking of evil power is something that has to be feared, and it seems that any living being is afraid of evil power.
It was an energy unleashed by the gods of the Abyss, with a terrifying power to corrupt and corrupt everything.
Except for those who believe in evil gods and voluntarily give everything to evil gods, all other living beings are naturally afraid of evil gods and evil powers.
Therefore, when Sululu said that the scorched earth plains were full of evil energy, everyone on the entire steam train began to tremble at this moment.
Seeing the fear of the crowd, Sululu thought for a moment and said, "Don't be afraid, if you don't step on the scorched earth, you shouldn't be affected." ”
Immediately after that, Sululu looked at the crack under the railroad tracks in front of him, and saw the faintly beating flame that seemed to be extinguished at any moment, he thought for a moment and said to the rabbit in the cab, "Rabbit, do you think we can rush through the rails on that crack?"
The rabbit was silent for a long time, and again, put on his goggles, staring at the rails and cracks and making calculations.
After a long time, the rabbit said, "If you want to rush over, you must reach a speed of more than 200, otherwise it may be dangerous." ”
Upon hearing this, Sululu immediately fell silent, because the fastest speed of this modified steam train could not reach 200 at all.
The speed of 200 is already beyond the maximum load of the steam engine, and if it is forced to reach 200, it may cause the steam engine to explode.
That would be something Suluru didn't want, as they needed to use the steam train to get back to Dragon City.
If there is no steam train, not to mention going back to Dragon City, or the next journey on the scorched earth, I am afraid it will be a problem.
In this case, there is really a huge trouble, and if there is no way to move forward, then it is impossible to understand the current situation in the north.
The guy who Sululu sent to collect information before, judging from the current situation, it should be impossible to bring back information.
Standing on the lookout of a steam train, looking out over the scorched earth plains and the crevasses that stand in the way.
Sululu really felt very embarrassed at this moment, and didn't know how to solve the current trouble?
After thinking for a long time, Sululu could only order: "Let's rest for the time being, it looks like we have to rest for a while, and then continue to move forward when we think of a way." ”
With that, Sululu went straight back to the cab, wanting to discuss with the rabbits and the mechanics.
Upon entering the carriage, Sululu saw that both the mechanic and the rabbit were already waiting for him.
Seeing Sululu coming, the rabbit said directly, "It seems that we will have a hard time moving forward." ”
A mechanic stood up and said, "Yes, we can't reach more than 200 at our speed." ”
Soon, though, another mechanic said, "But we can try, 200 we should be able to reach." ”
Sululu shook his head and said, "No, that's too risky, 200 may lead to a series of problems, we can't take risks." ”
The rabbit said again: "But in the current situation, if we don't take the risk, then I'm afraid we will have to go back." ”
There was also a mechanic who agreed with the rabbit's suggestion to go back: "Yes, it's okay to go back, we have been out at least ten miles, and the minefield laid should be enough to resist for a while." ”
"Also, we can lay some minefields in the mountains, and by the way, we can block the tunnel entrance. ”
Hearing this, Sululu shook his head and said, "No, doing so is tantamount to digging our own graves, and it is tantamount to trapping our own way out." ”
Soon the mechanic said: "But in the current situation, even if we don't block the way out, we have no way to go north?"
At this time, the gentleman king came in from outside, and when he heard such words, he couldn't help but say, "Are you too pessimistic when you say that?"
The mechanics looked at the gentleman king, and their eyes showed a trace of disdain.
In the eyes of this group of mechanics, the gentleman king is nothing more than a big, simple-minded orc with well-developed limbs.
And they are a group of workers who know how to be mechanical, they are the mechanics of this steam train, they are people who use their brains, and they don't bother to say anything more to the orcs.
The gentleman king naturally saw the disdain in the mechanic's eyes, but the gentleman king still continued: "I know that you guys look down on us and think that we warriors are just a group of simple-minded guys, but don't forget that you still need us to protect, and the weapons you make also need us to use." ”
Speaking of which, the gentleman king simply expressed his dissatisfaction with the mechanics in his heart.
"You guys always think how noble you are, and look down on our group of martial artists, but without our group of martial artists, you would have died a long time ago. ”
"And the bunch of stuff you're working on doesn't do anything at all. ”
"Right now, it's just a little bit of difficulty, you actually want to cut off your own retreat, you are simply a bunch of fools who can only study. ”
Sululu felt that what the Gentleman King had said was a bit excessive, and wanted to stop the Gentleman King from continuing.
But the gentleman king continued: "At present, we have no way to retreat, and the overseas imperial army will arrive at any time, do you really think that our trip is to lay minefields, to stop the evil gods? ”
After listening to the words of the gentleman king, all the mechanics present were dumbfounded, and their faces were full of incredulity.
A young mechanic couldn't help but ask, "Isn't it possible that we can't stop the army of the Empire?"
Sululu sighed a little helplessly: "It's not that it can't be stopped, but everything must leave a way out." ”
The words of the gentleman king, as well as Sululu's helpless sighs, the mechanics present immediately understood the difficult situation they were in now. (To be continued.) )
