182: A way to break the blockade
In a short period of time, Zhou Baiyu knew very well that if he wanted to leave the Longxia area, he could only pass the train.
Maybe one day in the future, I will take the train very often.
And the opportunity is today.
After thinking about all this, Zhou Baiyu was very cooperative.
He followed Attendant No. 1 and slowly passed through the many carriages.
When he arrived at the kitchen car, Zhou Baiyu's alienant talent saw an interesting description.
[Item name: Stubborn pot brother.] 】
[Specialty: Isn't stubbornness counted? ] 】
[Introduction: When you are put into the pot, you become all kinds of food, you can be chocolate-flavored chocolate, or you can be-flavored.]
Or mix it up. Just put in the regular passenger, or passenger, and it can make any delicious meal for the passenger, depending on the passenger's physique.
Some people's lives are like a piece of, some people's lives are chocolate, and some people have a hot temper, which is suitable for making hairy blood.
Maybe you can go in and try it and see what kind of delicious it will be made into your life, I guess the taste must be complicated? Anyway, try and die.
By the way, it is said that this used to be a savior's cauldron, and when the savior was alive, it did not have such a special ability, and it was not until the savior left it that it was arrogantly mutated and discovered by the new gods. 】
[Status: Unalienable.] The pot clan will never be slaved, not alienated, not enchanted, not parasitic, not diseased, unless it wants to. 】
This is a pot placed in the kitchen compartment, although Zhou Baiyu has no obsession with the pot, but he always feels ...... It's a pot with a story.
Soon the two came to the power source car.
In the power source car, Zhou Baiyu saw all kinds of magical items that only existed in the realm of human gods through various descriptions.
He had to sigh that this train was really magical, it was like something that appeared out of some fairy tale world.
If only there weren't those weird regular passengers on the train.
After passing through the power source car, you will come to the most captain's car.
After entering the carriage, Zhou Baiyu saw a long round table.
It's like a giant round table for a meeting.
Sitting at the top of the round table is the conductor.
Like Crew One, he wears a blue uniform, but the conductor has no mask, only a thick, white beard, and looks unusually old.
After he saw Zhou Baiyu, he pointed to the position in front of him.
If the company holds a meeting, then Zhou Baiyu is sitting in the position of the second-in-command.
This surprised Crew One a little, but he absolutely obeyed all the arrangements of the conductor.
"Sit down, lad."
Zhou Baiyu is not afraid, if he wants to kill himself, the bunch of regular passengers in the VIP room is enough to make him die many times.
It is not up to the conductor to take action personally.
Although I don't know what level of corruption or pollution the crew No. 1 and the conductor are.
But come to think of it, it is definitely not easy to manage the passengers and regular passengers of this train.
However, Zhou Baiyu still thought wrongly, and the first sentence of the conductor shocked Zhou Baiyu.
"I'm just like you, I'm also a human being, I'm not a corrupt seed, I'm a pure practitioner."
"There are many forerunners who died on this train, and I have been keeping an eye on it."
Pure Walker?
Isn't that the same as Konstantin?
Zhou Baiyu was quite calm on his face, but his heart was turbulent.
The Pure Walker appeared in the territory of Longxia, which is a proper conflict with the rules of the gods, right?
The conductor continued:
"I used to drive trains, the Souese Pacifist. While Sue was still around, at a time when you may not have been born, I became a Pure Practitioner. ”
"You can interpret me as...... The first Pure Walkers of the Third World. About sixty years ago, I was a pure practitioner. ”
World Number Three.
Zhou Baiyu noticed this extremely crucial statement.
This means that the other party, like himself, also knows that there are three worlds.
This is understandable, after all, there are many places that the train can go.
It's really a train that can travel through the worlds.
But what shocked Zhou Baiyu was ...... Sixty years ago, there were pure walkers?
If World No. 3 is its own world, doesn't that mean -
Sixty years ago, when the world was normal and nothing strange happened in any country......
Have you already started to get in touch with the world of the Advance?
Wait, if the other person is a purifier...... So isn't the other party's timeline the same as your own?
Does the conductor know that this is version 2.15?
The conductor seemed to see what Zhou Baiyu was thinking about when he frowned, and he said slowly:
"It's complicated to explain. In your cognition, the Pure Walker Forerunners of this world only appeared not long ago, not just a few years ago. ”
"Hmm...... It's hard to explain here, you just need to know that I'm not corrupt. ”
周白榆 says:
"The current version is 2.15."
This sentence is a declarative sentence, but it is also a question issued by Zhou Baiyu.
The conductor smiled:
"I'm not like the traditional Pure Walkers, I can't travel through the timeline, I can't travel through different versions like your Forerunners."
"Because the God I believe in is a special God. When I gain certain benefits, I am destined to lose certain benefits. ”
"My journey is decided by the guests."
"Your journey is determined by the gods."
The last two sentences, Zhou Baiyu pondered carefully, and figured out the meaning.
The conductor says:
"The place I can go to is farther away than the place you have recruited, and closer to the future. But the premise of all this is that there needs to be a passenger. ”
"The train will look for the passengers who are destined to be there, and the spirit of the train will appear in some people's dreams or hallucinations."
"It will tell these people where to board the bus. And I'm going to drive through these places and pick up these people in the car. ”
"I'll probably drive from 2.15 to 2.14. It is also possible to drive from 2.15 to 2.16...... Who knows, the train needs a master, I am the master of the train, but it is our passengers who decide the end of the train and me. ”
"Do you understand when I say that?"
The conductor looked at Zhou Baiyu with a friendly look in his eyes.
Zhou Baiyu understood.
The conductor is a pure traveler, and it stands to reason that the conductor should be able to go to all kinds of conscriptions, just like Konstantin or himself, like the forerunners.
For example, occasionally go to version 1.01, occasionally go to version 2.49...... Anyway, in this range, constantly receiving call-ups.
Explore the puzzles of the whole world.
But at the moment, there are two different points about the conductor.
First of all, the timeline for the conductor to become a net traveler is very early. Earlier than any of the forerunners that Zhou Baiyu knew.
So much so that Zhou Baiyu wondered if the train conductor was a net traveler at the end of the last era.
Secondly, the god that the conductor believes in is the god of trade and trade-off.
One of the duties and powers of the Purifier is to be able to travel to different versions and purify the pollution.
And the conductor ...... It seems that this duty and authority are used as bargaining chips in exchange for the identity of the conductor.
He was able to follow the train and go to any version, anywhere. At the cost of losing the ability of the Pure Walker to travel to various conscription timelines.
So it's an equivalent exchange.
"Equivalent exchange, you exchanged the authority of the net walker for the authority of the conductor?" Zhou Baiyu asked.
The conductor nodded approvingly:
"You're really a very smart guy. I think it will be a pleasure to work with each other. ”
Zhou Baiyu frowned again:
"Cooperation? What cooperation? According to you, you have survived several worlds for decades, and you can follow the train through different versions......"
"Your experience and ability are above me, and the rules of the whole vehicle are also in awe of you, why do you need me?"
The train conductor has long known about Zhou Baiyu's problem:
"Those rules for passengers will be updated from time to time...... Some rules are replaced with new rules when they are phased out. ”
"Your journey is determined by the gods, or by us. And my journey is up to the passengers. ”
"Although the regular passengers will be afraid of me and my flight attendants."
"But any other passenger, unless the presence of extreme strength...... For the most part, you need to deal with regular passengers. ”
"There are very few passengers who can reach the terminal. And we can't intervene in this process. ”
"This is the principle of fair trade, and this is what I believe in...... The core principle. ”
"Everybody who gets on the train has to be put to the test, and getting on the train means going to where you want to go. This is the goods, and the goods, all need to pay a price. ”
"The price is to survive in the train. The conductor will provide information about the rules, whether true or false, and all passengers who take the train must survive in the carriage full of rules before they can reach their destination. ”
"As a result, many passengers are not able to arrive at all. I'm not afraid to tell you that out of a hundred passengers, only one passenger can successfully reach the terminal. ”
"Even that's more optimistic."
"If you die before you reach the terminal...... This means that I can't get to where the passenger is, and when the passenger dies, I stop and stop going to the passenger's destination, but turn around and look for a new passenger. ”
Zhou Baiyu probably understood.
Trains require passengers to start.
Without passengers, the train is wasted.
And even with passengers, the train may only be halfway through...... Problems arise.
Because the passengers can't stand it, under the strange talk of various rules, the passengers may die halfway before they reach their destination.
Then the train will have to stop going to its destination and look for new passengers.
"What happens if no passengers arrive at their destination?"
Zhou Baiyu had no doubt about the key point.
The conductor said with a solemn expression:
"Then the Pantheon may think that the value of the train is not high, and will find a way...... Destroy the train. ”
Pantheon?
Zhou Baiyu didn't expect to hear the words Pantheon here.
He had a faint feeling that in the land of Longxia, the Seven Demon Emperors and the Seam were the biggest masters, and in the future version 2.49, there would be a battle for sovereignty between the Seven Demon Emperors and the Seam.
But outside of Longxia, the Pantheon is the real behemoth.
As soon as he heard the Pantheon, Zhou Baiyu was completely interested.
"The Pantheon may be a more terrifying existence than the Seven Demon Emperors."
"Such a behemoth, if I can gather information about it before it notices me, it may be of great help to me in fighting them in the future."
"The main thing is that the words of the conductor seem to be ...... Not against the Pantheon? ”
"This means that the conductor is a potential ally."
Zhou Baiyu analyzed the situation in his mind, and then said:
"What kind of existence is the Pantheon?"
"You can ask such a question, it looks like you've been in contact with them."
The conductor said.
Zhou Baiyu nodded:
"In the world I live in, I've had a few dealings with the people of the Pantheon. Speaking of which, the Pantheon also takes a train? Where are they going? ”
The conductor looked at Zhou Baiyu and said slowly:
"The place they are going to is in Longxia. It's just that so far, they haven't been successful. ”
"A hundred out of a hundred polluted species in the Longxia area died on the rules of the car."
"There was a time when only one pantheon-arranged pollutant seed made it to arrive, but it was killed by a corrupt seed called the sewing."
Sewing?
Zhou Baiyu felt more and more interesting.
Sewing and the people of the Pantheon...... Fighting? Closing the sewing body has actually become a pioneer in guarding Long Xia?
The conductor says:
"Anyway, you need to know that as a train that goes through various places, it's hard for me to get around the Pantheon."
"Their power is huge, and their followers are everywhere."
"The vast majority of the passengers I met were their people."
"And I can feel it...... The Pantheon had become very suspicious of me, and had become more and more impatient with the train. ”
Zhou Baiyu still doesn't understand a little:
"Once the Pantheon becomes suspicious of you and loses patience with the train, it can destroy the Strange Train?"
"Yes." The conductor nodded.
Zhou Baiyu asked again: "Then what is the destination of the Pantheon to Longxia?" ”
"God-making." The sound of the train was muffled.
Zhou Baiyu must say that there are too many shocking news I heard today.
So much so that he is not so frightened in his heart now.
Creating a god...... It's very much in line with the word Pantheon.
The conductor continued to say the explosive information that surprised Zhou Baiyu in his heart:
"God will be the rule. The same is true of the created gods. In a way, the highest levels of the pantheon did not dare to become gods. ”
"So the most terrible thing in this world is not the gods, but the man in the black cloak in front of you...... Demigods. ”
"The creation of the gods of the Pantheon is to transport all kinds of mysterious treasures to the territory of Longxia, trying to let the demons and corrupt species in the land of Longxia pass through the mysterious treasures...... Become a god. ”
Zhou Baiyu frowned:
"Isn't it possible that the mystical treasures of the Pantheon don't need money? Only one person in a hundred people can pass the test of the train alive, and even this person may be killed by the corrupt species in Longxia, this success rate, it can't let the passengers carry the mysterious treasures every time, right? ”
The conductor shook his head:
"Of course not, the mystical treasures are also extremely important items for the Pantheon."
"So the Pantheon is currently only in the experimental stage, trying to test the success rate of the train transporting the bearers of the mystical treasures."
"Only when the success rate reaches a certain level, will the Pantheon officially release the mystical treasures and let the 'stowaways' smuggle in."
"It is precisely because the success rate is so low that the Pantheon may think that the existence of the train is not meaningful, and it is not worth arranging stowaways, and even intends to destroy the train."
"And making sure the train doesn't get destroyed is why I'm looking for you."
The conductor continued:
"I know what you want to ask, what you want to know is why the Pantheon wants to create gods in the territory of Longxia."
Zhou Baiyu admitted that his problem was once again prejudged by the train conductor.
The conductor took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it, looking extremely dignified:
"Because there is such a rule among the gods, once a new god appears in the land of Longxia, then-"
"The barrier on the border of Longxia will disappear. At this point, the people of the Pantheon entered Long Xia, and there was no longer any hindrance. ”
Zhou Baiyu suddenly:
"So the purpose of the Pantheon is to make the barrier of blockade ...... Disappear? ”
