Chapter 617: Chapter 298 Lively_2

Maya said, "Lin Wu got the information that: Line 1 leads to Zombie Town, Line 2 goes to Town 4. It matches the two corresponding words well. What does the bustle of Line 3 mean?"

Hong Yi said, "I’ve spent all my money on basic items. I don’t think there’s much benefit in going to Human Town now."

Shuihua said, "It’s because we have no money that we should go to Human Town to make money." This time he had ten minutes to decide.

Lin Wu chimed in, "Does ’glorious’ mean explosion?"

Qinglang suggested, "It could also be plants, like tulips."

Lin Wu and Shuihua were puzzled, "How can flowers be ’glorious’? At most they are beautiful."

Hong Yi explained, "When you see a pretty girl on the street, that’s beautiful. But when you see a bunch of pretty girls and your eyes can’t take it all in, that’s ’glorious’."

Lin Wu said, "You sure know a lot."

Hong Yi said, "It’s not only you men who like to look at pretty girls; we love to as well."

"Really?" Lin Wu looked to Maya for an answer.

"Huh?" Maya snapped back to reality and said, "Let’s take Line 3."

Shuihua asked, "What’s the reason?"

Maya said, "Because Lin Wu said Town 2 on Line 2 will explode. You can doubt his analysis and judgment, but you must believe his jinx."

Lin Wu glared at Maya, while Hong Yi fanned the flames, "Scold her, scold her."

Qinglang sighed, "Immaturity really is contagious."

Lin Wu and Hong Yi smacked Qinglang on the head, "You’re the immature one."

Shuihua, protective of his wife, said, "Lin Wu, he didn’t say you infected him."

Lin Wu: "If not me, then who?"

Shuihua gave a thumbs up, "You win."

Maya said, "Let’s split up and rest, Qinglang with Lin Wu, and Hong Yi with Shuihua."

Lin Wu wondered, "It feels like we’re missing someone."

Maya said, "I don’t rest during the day."

Lin Wu said, "If you don’t take care of your health, it will break my heart."

Enough was enough!

The crowd applauded as Lin Wu was thoroughly thrashed.

Lin Wu and Qinglang went to rest. Qinglang lay in bed, pondered for a while, and said, "Lin Wu, thank you for bringing so much laughter."

Lin Wu replied, "Don’t mention it, I just have a quick tongue."

Qinglang said, "I’ve met really sharp-tongued people, they spend most of their time offending others. But you don’t."

Lin Wu said, "If you keep praising me like this, you’ll talk the sky to death. Let’s get some sleep before that happens."

"Hehe, alright!"

...

Maya was tallying up the supplies with pen and paper. They had plenty of food, coal, and even daily necessities. Theoretically, as long as there were no emergencies and they paid close attention to replenishing coal and food, surviving seven days was not too big an issue.

However, like activities and games, survival is just one part. In the early days of the settlement, everyone was also trying to survive, so many people learned to fish. After the food supply stabilized, the system released more Mutant Zombies, starting a gradual shift towards hardcore survival. Therefore, the future held many challenges.

Thinking this, Maya used an Armor card. The train had four carriages besides the engine, so the Armor card needed four hours to be installed. While discussing with everyone would give them a sense of participation, in the end, such decisions could only be made by Maya.

Why could Sunlight meet his sister? It was related to the previous activities, which I won’t elaborate on here. Since he could meet Sunlight, it meant he might be able to meet people from Shadow. But according to the system’s instructions, meeting people from Shadow meant either one’s own train had to be in trouble and required rescue, or the Shadow’s train was in trouble. So it was better not to meet.

Four hours away from Town 4, the scenery along the way was quite impressive. As long as the train’s speed exceeded 20 kilometers per hour, the dark and Blood Mist circles would completely disappear, returning the view to the players.

Approaching Town 4, Maya assigned tasks to everyone—picking up trash, making money, exploring, watching the train.

Once the train stopped, all NPC passengers paid their fares and disembarked. After collecting the money, Maya handed it to Hong Yi and went over some precautionary measures. Then she heard Lin Wu shouting for help.

Looking out, she saw Lin Wu and Qinglang, who had left earlier, sprinting out of the waiting hall. They dashed onto the platform and scrambled into the train, continuously shouting, "Drive, drive, drive!"

Maya didn’t know what had happened, but seeing their panic, she immediately ordered, "Drive the train."

The train wheels began to roll, and countless people surged out of the waiting hall, desperately running with many falling down, uncared for, trampled by others.

Maya shouted, "Close the doors."

"It’s too late."

People were already boarding the train, cramming into the passenger carriage, and those who couldn’t get inside climbed onto the roof. They behaved like Zombies, losing their minds, screaming, and crying. The scene was extraordinarily lively.

Then, countless Zombies rushed out of the waiting hall. They knocked down the lagging passengers, and those who had not boarded turned back in horror, running alongside the train and desperately trying to climb aboard.

By now, the connection between the passenger carriage and the supply carriage had already been closed by Lin Wu and Qinglang. Through the glass of the door, one could see the passenger carriage crammed full of people.

Lin Wu shouted, "Do you have any money? If not, get off my train."

Qinglang turned to Lin Wu, "Are you going to collect money?"

Lin Wu shook his head, "Just shouting." I’m not a sardine, I don’t want to join the chaos.

The passenger carriage, originally with 20 seats, was crammed with at least a hundred people. Including those on the roof, there were at least 150 passengers. At 5 dollars each, that came to 750 dollars. According to the prices in Town 3, the Orient Express was taking off.
