Chapter 799: Death Train

"Life is a journey, and death is its end." - Playwright

Wu Hui and Wu Tong were sitting side by side in a corner of the train, looking inconspicuous among the many passengers. Everyone around them seemed to be sitting in their respective seats, without any movement.

"..." Wu Hui was not in a hurry and started to read the rules first. This is a level 10 difficulty game, so it is best to be cautious.

The combat power has not been sealed. The mission is to find out the truth before the train arrives at the terminal. But the specific truth is not revealed. Wu Tong is not in a hurry, her intelligence is only thirteen points, and now she is waiting for Wu Hui next to her to come up with ideas.

"Well... let's talk to someone first." Wu Hui activated the Six Paths Apartment and summoned the group of people from the Human World to collect information. At the same time, he also studied the clothes of the people around him.

It looks like modern times, but the clothing types are low and the workmanship is poor, and they are generally outdated. Maybe it is because the economy is not very developed.

No one was playing with their mobile phones. Most people looked confused.

Occasionally, someone gets up to go to the toilet. Except that no one is playing with mobile phones and there are no conductors pushing carts to sell things, it looks no different from ordinary trains.

But once the glasses are scanned, it can be seen that these people are all in a state of soul.

In other words, this is a train carrying dead people.

Soon, several Summons from the Human World, who had little combat power but were very efficient at work, came to report the information they asked for.

This section of the car is at the rear of the car, and the way forward is locked. Most of the train passengers don't know why they are on the car. But first of all, due to some kind of mental hypnosis, they still stay in their seats obediently.

There is no danger in getting up and walking.

So Wu Hui and Wu Tong got up and started to inquire about information in the train. However, they heard someone cough dryly: "Help me, thank you."

Wu Hui looked in this direction. It was a guy he knew.

Legendary investigator, one of the founders of human defense, and the world's first investigator. Qi Shanlin.

This investigator was also the only one who died of natural causes. Well, he died in a rather shameful manner. He died of some undisclosed disease due to his chaotic private life. This may be a wake-up call for Wu Hui.

But Qi Shanlin is really handsome, with about 12 points of charm. He also has a temperament that has gone through vicissitudes of life.

His position was somewhat special, as he was pinned down on his seat by arms composed of countless skeletons. However, these skeletons were invisible to the naked eye, and Wu Hui also scanned them with his glasses.

Wu Hui knocked on his glasses. It could be seen from the favorability score that this Qi Shanlin had no memory of himself.

But Wu Tong didn't say anything, just took out a bottle of wine and waited for his brother to negotiate with this person.

"Do you know you are a dead person?" Wu Hui asked.

Qi Shanlin: "Yeah, I know. But whether you're dead or not, you still have to see what's going on in this place."

"Okay." Wu Hui took action and pulled Qi Shanlin up from his seat. But the next moment, he and Wu Tong seemed to be attracted by the soul of Qi Shanlin, and came to an unknown world together.

Well...this should be the setting of this game. Wu Hui didn't panic at all, or he just thought this would happen.

"Ahem, cough, cough." The two looked towards the direction where the sound came from.

That was Qi Shanlin who was already lying on the hospital bed.

He was holding a watch, trembling slightly. When Wu Hui stepped forward to take it, he closed his eyes and died.

Wu Hui looked at his watch and saw four buttons: jump, rewind, pause, and fast forward.

There is also a sentence engraved on the back of the watch: "Every time you use it, you will consume your own time. Please use it with caution."

So...Qi Shanlin didn't really die of illness, but because he used up this prop to use up his time? It's a bit fantasy.

"I'll wear it," Wu Tong said.

"Take turns wearing it." Wu Hui glanced at his sister: "Sister, I am no longer a child."

"Well, I understand this very well." Wu Tong suddenly touched his lower abdomen and at the same time cast a glance at Wu Hui.

Winking.

She was gesturing there, but Wu Hui said he had put on his watch, and the watch showed his remaining time: 525732.372 hours.

That is a little more than sixty years.

Qi Shanlin was in his thirties when he died. He died quite young. Now it seems that it was probably because he used this watch too many times.

Wu Hui looked at the price of the jump. There are many marked dates on this watch, and you can also choose to jump forward or backward by how many years. Each jump of one year consumes 0.1 hours, and then the starting price is one hour. To be honest,

It's quite affordable, but if you use it a lot, it will consume a lot of time.

The marked dates are: 1. The human defense line was established. x0000. 2. The eve of the burning morning light x0102. 3. The legendary investigator Crazy Eyes Ace was born x0062...

Lin Lin listed a dozen time points in total. I have to say that Qi Shanlin is also very busy.

I originally wanted to say that it would be too shameful to die in a chaotic private life, but now it seems that this guy can see his remaining time and simply indulge. In fact, he has a lot of things to worry about. He is simply a saint, jumping around the timeline to put out fires.

And it seems that the legendary investigators summoned by Wu Hui don't know about this yet.

They all thought that the first legendary investigator was called a legend just because he established the investigator organization. He was a guy whose administrative organization ability was greater than his ability in specific affairs.

Of course, setting up investigators and a human defense line is also a very powerful thing in itself. Those investigators who follow will have to act under his framework. Such an existence is legendary enough in itself.

But now it seems a little more legendary than imagined.

"Well... let's experiment first." Wu Hui grabbed Wu Tong's hand and chose to jump in time. The jump was successful, and the two of them came to the year x0000 of this investigator's world.

Wu Hui did not spend much time, only two hours. After all, the time when Qi Shanlin died was not long after the establishment of the human defense line. It was only ten years.

At this time, Wu Hui also received a game prompt from the Demon God, asking him to hand over a brand new time watch to Qi Shanlin.

Brand new? How to do this?

Wu Tong: "Well, do you want to make a new one, or..."

"No, I probably understand." After all, Wu Hui is a person who has experienced the game in Liudao Apartment: "We have to find the source of this watch. Or find a way to turn it into the latest thing."

He estimated that such a highly effective thing would definitely not be allowed to be taken out of the game. It was just a mission item.

Moreover, we still don’t know whether the time in this world is linear, circular, or tree-shaped. It’s unclear whether the time watch can find the beginning and the end. What if it is just a ring created out of thin air?

This may be a bit abstract, so let's be more specific. Suppose Wu Hui took this watch, refurbished it and gave it to Qi Shanlin. Then, Qi Shanlin would give him the watch in the future.

That forms a ouroboros. The head and tail are connected, with no end and end.

That is, the meaning of the evil god of the circle of time.
