One by one, soldiers clad in grey tallic exoskeleton armor, “Iron Shell,” and holding blast guns responded solemnly.
And with that, they dispersed to their respective duties.
The nurous passengers and students on the scene, upon seeing the soldiers disembark, all stopped complaining and stood obediently.
Su Ming watched these soldiers, also secretly admiring within his heart, Starlight City truly deserved its reputation; its rescue team was far superior to that of the Thirteenth District in every aspect.
However, after the soldiers had finished disembarking, a middle-aged man in a well-fitting deep blue suit, with a red tie, neatly combed hair, and gleaming leather shoes, ca down.
He was followed by several subordinates dressed in work uniforms.
This middle-aged man raised his hand and pressed the convenient amplification device pinned to his collar, then spoke very apologetically.
“Dear respected passengers, I am the representative of the Federation Orbital Departnt, Zhang Ye.
I’m very sorry to have caused you all such a fright, and I sincerely apologize.
For anyone injured in this incident, we will fully cover dical expenses and compensation for lost wages!
As for anyone who unfortunately passed away, the Orbital Departnt will also compensate and handle matters to the best of our ability.”
Upon hearing Zhang Ye’s words, the anger that had been smoldering in people’s hearts sowhat subsided.
After all, there’s a saying that goes, “Don’t slap a smiling face.”
At this point, several students asked,
“When can we leave here?
It’s too hot!”
“Imdiately, you can leave right away.
This train is here to pick everyone up for departure.
I now kindly ask all of you to board!
Our staff has already prepared als and cooling beverages for you.
Additionally, to express our apologies, the fare for this train trip will be fully refunded, with the money returned to your cards.
If you paid in cash, you can get the refund at the counter upon arriving at Starlight City,”
Zhang Ye eagerly continued.
Once people heard they could leave imdiately, nobody had the mood to waste words with Zhang Ye; they all clamored eagerly.
“Let us board quickly!”
“I’m dying from the heat!”
…
“Please, be careful when climbing down.
Also, don’t push; board in an orderly fashion!
Rest assured there’s a seat for everyone,”
Zhang Ye shouted loudly.
At this ti, staff mbers ca forward attentively, guiding the people onto the train.
They even helped those with mobility issues onto the vehicle.
Before long, Su Ming and others smoothly boarded the train.
Su Ming found a seat by the window and sat down.
At that mont, he saw Qin Feng and Yu Wei passing by, taking seats not far in front of him.
“Wow, it’s Yu Wei and Qin Feng!”
“How co they’re so beautiful and handso?”
“Sigh, it’s just too bad that Yu Wei didn’t take off her coat in the tunnel when it was so hot.”
…
The students in the carriage were all murmuring quietly.
“Hmph!”
Gu ng saw Yu Wei sitting not far away and snorted coldly.
It wasn’t long before everyone was on the train.
The doors slowly closed, and the train began its journey toward Starlight City.
At that mont, staff mbers ca by with carts, giving out reheated boxed als and chilled beverages for free, and everyone started eating.
Su Ming wasn’t very hungry, he just twisted open a beverage and took a sip, quietly watching the scene outside the window.
Just then, the announcent system suddenly ca alive.
“Dear passengers, the train will soon be rapidly ascending, causing a slight tilt.
Please take care; do not walk in the aisle to avoid unnecessary injuries….”
“We’re leaving underground!”
“Finally leaving underground!
It’s my first ti reaching the surface!”
“ too.”
…
The students in the carriage were all imnsely excited.
Su Ming was also quite intrigued.
Although the mories of his past visits to the surface returned, he had never witnessed it with his own eyes.
At this mont, Qi Shen attentively spoke to Gu ng,
“Gu ng, we are almost at the surface.
Once we erge, Starlight City won’t be far away.”
“I know,” Gu ng replied listlessly.
Her gaze had been fixed on Su Ming the entire ti, and the more she watched, the more she liked him.
Gu ng found that Su Ming radiated a very special aura.
As for Su Ming, he had not paid any attention to Gu ng’s gaze and was staring out the window the whole ti.
The train, like a sky track, burst forth from underground.
The dazzling sunlight stread in, suddenly making it difficult for everyone to open their eyes; they instinctively shielded their faces with their hands.
After a while, when their eyes had adjusted, they turned to look outside,
only to see an endless expanse of red rocky terrain filling their view.
“Wow, it looks so spectacular!”
Many students exclaid excitedly.
Su Ming was also very interested and carefully observed the real world outside.
The entire surface was red rock, without a trace of green vegetation or water.
And occasionally, violent sandstorms would kick up, causing the high-speed train to continuously clink and clang.
“This terrain is so desolate; why can’t we see any people?
There’s nothing at all.”
“Don’t even ntion people; you can’t even see an animal.”
“No way.”
“Do a favor and look up at the head of the carriage at the scrolling display screen.
It displays the temperature.
Once you’ve looked at it, you won’t ask such questions.”
…
One student after another discussed.
Hearing this, Su Ming looked up at the scrolling display screen at the head of the carriage and saw it showing,
“Outside temperature: 65 degrees, Inside temperature: 24 degrees.”
Seeing this temperature, Su Ming shook his head.
If the outside was 65 degrees, the surface temperature was definitely over 80 degrees.
At this temperature, without wearing specially protective suits or exoskeleton armor, one would definitely be cooked.
“Wow, isn’t that way too hot?
It feels like we could cook rice!”
“Rice might not be possible, but frying an egg should be no problem.”
“Luckily, we didn’t have issues on the surface in the beginning.”
“That’s for sure.”
“But there’s nothing on the surface; it gets boring looking at it for a long ti.”
…
Many students chatted in amazent.
Having looked at the surface for a while, Su Ming also felt a bit of aesthetic fatigue; the scenery along the way was almost unchanging.
Just as he was about to avert his gaze, he suddenly heard Yu Wei, sitting in front of him, cry out in amazent.
“Qin Feng, look quickly, there seems to be soone ahead!”
“How could that be?
Soone outside?”
For a mont, everyone in the carriage curiously looked forward.
Hearing this, Su Ming’s interest was piqued, and he leaned against the window to peer forward.
As a result, he really saw a very blurry figure not far ahead.
As the train advanced at high speed, quickly closing the distance, everyone gradually got a clear view of the figure.
They saw a man with charred skin, shaved head, wearing a tracksuit.
“Holy shit, he’s not wearing any protective gear!”
“That’s badass!”
“This guy must be a Second Generation of New Humans, might even be a third-generation.”
“Right, a regular human couldn’t withstand this temperature.”
…
Everyone gasped in amazent.
