Chaoyang looked at the two of them for a long time, and finally smiled helplessly, "But this is your choice."
"Yes!" Their eyes lit up.
"This time we plan to hijack a train."
"It turned out to be a train hijacking—ah!?" Judy was stunned.
"The dilemma of the Yeni Holy Church is money, and robbing the rich is the fastest way. Of course, we don't intend to pick on hard problems like banks. The transportation train of Gaotian Mining Company is the most ideal choice at present. Anyway, the Holy Church is currently
Their situation is inseparable from them." Chaoyang gave an overview of the results of everyone's deliberations last night, "Considering that mining companies generally have their own armed suppression forces, this mission will definitely have certain risks, and you don't want to get involved.
If so, it’s too late to quit now.”
"I won't quit!" Judy said without hesitation, "Chengbei Police Station must have been under their instructions, and the previous accounts have not been settled with them yet!"
"Of course I do too." Dane nodded, "But...are you sure you want to do it between the smelter and the mine? It's a foggy area there."
"Misty area?" Chaoyang raised his eyebrows.
"I think you must have noticed the endless fog in the distance of the city, right?"
He nodded. He had been coming to Brilliant Castle for so long, and he had visited almost every corner. Indeed, when he was in the northeastern area, he could always see a cloud of fog. At first, he thought it was a very low cloud layer.
It's a unique phenomenon at the seaside, but for so many days, no matter it's sunny or rainy, it seems to have never moved.
"That's the fog closest to the city, so you can see it. But in fact, the entire New World is covered in fog like this. As long as you leave the city a little bit, you will find yourself in a thick fog that makes it almost impossible to move.
.”
"Shouldn't fog be a weather condition?" Chaoyang asked puzzledly. There seems to be no relevant content mentioned in the book on the history of Brilliant Castle.
"How about, let Mr. Chao go and meet him in person!" Judy suggested, "Anyway, there is a sightseeing bus you can take!"
"Okay, what do you want?" Dan asked.
"In that case, please lead the way."
…
Half an hour later, Chaoyang discovered that Judy was not joking, but that there was actually a sightseeing bus available in the north of the city! Not only that, there were actually quite a few tourists here!
And the businessmen who run this road are very attentive. For example, the carriage used to carry passengers has four horses pulling it. The carriage is very spacious and can accommodate almost twelve people. In order to ensure the view, the carriage has only one roof, and there are other surrounding areas.
Without any obstruction, you can have a panoramic view of the scenery around you.
"I didn't expect...Huihuangbao is still a tourist city." After buying the ticket and getting on the bus, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Of course not." Dane smiled, "Only the rich people in the New World would see the fog at close range as a pastime. After all, they are far away from the wilderness and are accustomed to the comfort and prosperity of big cities, and have long forgotten
A taste of danger.”
Chaoyang looked at the other passengers in the carriage and realized that Dann was absolutely right.
These people are obviously not residents of Brilliant Castle. They are all dressed quite smartly. The men all wear patterned shirts or sheepskin vests, and their leather shoes are well polished. The women basically wear long skirts and burqas, with sun hats on their heads and neck collars.
There are also bright pendants hanging on his ears.
Look at the coachman driving the horse, as well as the workers washing cars and feeding horses nearby...it seems as if the two did not come from the same world.
"Sit down, ladies and gentlemen, we're going to leave immediately!" Following the tour guide's whistle, the carriage started slowly and headed north along the concrete floor below.
Brilliant Castle does not have a city wall in this direction, and the surrounding houses soon became sparse and low, replaced by patches of farmland. Not far from the cement road, Chaoyang can see four parallel rows of railroad tracks on the ground.
It spreads and is connected to the factory area to the east.
"Where does this road lead?" he asked Dann curiously.
"It doesn't lead anywhere. It was built specifically for tourists to watch the mist. The end is on a hillside." The latter replied, "The transportation here is all by train. Of course... most people don't want it.
go out."
"Brilliant Castle is not the only city in the New World, right?"
"Of course not, it is a bridgehead. There are five more bridgeheads like this in the New World, and they are basically close to the sea. Going further inland, there are outpost cities. The one closest to us is called the Dulay Ring."
"Look, look!"
"Oh my god, what is that?"
"It's like a wall!"
The conversation among the passengers in the car suddenly became excited.
Chaoyang noticed that a huge fog wall suddenly appeared in the originally foggy countryside! It almost climbed from the ground to the sky, and it was so majestic that it was suffocating. He could clearly see many details on the fog wall.
For example, the layered gaseous surface is like a piece of thousand-feuille cake, with each layer being at least three or four stories high.
Such a solid wall of fog should be clearly visible in the city. Why couldn't he see its entirety until now?
"Everyone, this is the strangest thing about the fog! It appears and disappears suddenly!" the tour guide introduced loudly, "If you look farther away, it is just a hazy mist. When you cross the border, it will instantly become
A ridge!”
As the carriage continued to run, the second and third fog walls soon appeared one after another - or in other words, they were originally there, but they suddenly appeared because of the change in perspective.
Chaoyang felt a strong sense of depression.
The hazy wilderness in front of us no longer existed, replaced by walls of fog in all directions, which were connected to each other to form a well-organized fold line.
"What will happen if we rush into the fog?" a passenger asked.
"You will lose your way forever and never find your way home again!" the tour guide deliberately said in a scary tone, "This is not the most terrifying thing. There are ferocious beasts hidden in the fog, monsters that distort common sense... and evil.
Hidden Mist Cultists, if you encounter them, the end will be more terrible than death!"
The faces of the tourists all showed expressions of fear.
"Is it true?" Chaoyang asked Dan En in a low voice.
"Half-truth and half-falsehood. The fog mainly obstructs your line of sight. If you don't go in far, you can still come out by walking in one direction. Moreover, all navigation tools will fail in the fog. Once you lose your way, there is basically nothing."
Correction possible.”
"Then how do people get deep into the interior?"
"I know this, it depends on the spiritual lamp." Judy responded quickly, "Although it is a lamp, it actually uses a special kind of coral stone, which is only found in the sea."
"Coral?" Chaoyang couldn't understand. Why can coral be used as a fog light?
"I also heard it from others. It is said that this kind of coral stone can dispel fog and emit a faint blue light in the fog, so some people call it moonstone. It is also a major selling point for tourism merchants." Judy is obviously interested in it.
The sightseeing process is quite familiar. "You will be able to see this stone later and buy one as a souvenir!"
