Perhaps this access card is used to open this dungeon? But this dungeon, people can easily pass through the iron bars, making this access card sowhat useless.
He handed the access card to Zhang Yi beside him.
The key was too high, he couldn’t reach it.
Zhang Yi took the access card and gently placed it on the "door access lock" on the iron bars; after three seconds, there was no response.
"Master Mang, let go in and have a look."
Just then—
Biaozi volunteered, with a serious expression: "There might be so clues inside."
"I’ll go too," Li Shiji said as well.
"Hmm."
Chen Mang slightly furrowed his brows: "You two, be careful."
"Yes!"
...
Ten minutes later.
Biaozi and Li Shiji ca out of this train dungeon, shaking their heads.
"No clues whatsoever."
Li Shiji shook his head and said, "I stood on Biaozi’s shoulders and looked inside the train compartnt, but it’s completely empty, this flesh and blood train seems... more like a living entity, not scrapped, but already dead."
Chen Mang nodded, indicating he understood.
Then he turned to the stairs behind him and briskly walked towards the staircase leading upstairs.
At the end of the corridor, opposite the dungeon of the flesh and blood train was a staircase leading to the next level, indicating that the clue should be on the upper level.
There was no staircase leading down, only one leading up.
This level.
Still a corridor, with train dungeons on both sides, all appearing damaged, unrecognizable.
After exploring for quite so ti.
They found a very small "dungeon" in the corner of the corridor, obviously not on the sa level as the surrounding dungeons, with just 2 ters in height and an area of about ten square ters.
The gaps in the iron bars of this dungeon were only as wide as a thumb.
No human could possibly squeeze through.
And...
It’s excessively narrow, whereas jail cells for humans have gaps in iron bars about 10 centiters wide, this width effectively prevents any person from slipping through the gaps.
There was also a "door access lock" on the iron bars.
Chen Mang took out the access card and placed it against the door access lock.
The next mont—
The access card in his hand suddenly shattered into countless points of light that rged into the door access lock, followed by a crisp cracking sound, as the lock suddenly broke in two and fell to the ground.
The iron bars instantly retracted into the ground.
The once sealed dungeon suddenly beca unobstructed.
In this cramped and narrow dungeon, there was nothing but a humanoid mummified corpse and a small bed... On the table beside it lay a chip and a blueprint.
A steel plate hung on the wall with four large characters written on it.
"Flesh and Blood Cage."
"..."
Chen Mang pondered as he looked around, it resembled the place the warden would stay, just that this warden seed more human-like; besides a chip and a blueprint, there was also an access card on the table, which should be the access card that could open their cage.
Besides...
There were several sheets of A4 paper on the table, recording a lot of information, but because a long ti had passed, it was completely unreadable; with a gentle touch, the paper turned to ashes and vanished into the air.
It seems all the answers must be in that chip.
He glanced around once more but found no further clues. Furrowing his brows, he picked up that "access card" and proceeded downstairs to see if he could really open it.
When Zhang Yi placed the access card on the "door access lock".
The next mont!
Everything around them suddenly began to fracture until it was all still again, and they were back to the position before entering the Adventure Map.
"How did it go, Master Mang!"
The voice of Er Dan ca from the train compartnt’s sound system: "I rember this map has a 24-hour ti limit, you all ca out so soon, did you clear the map?"
"Not sure."
With a strange look on his face, Chen Mang shook his head; to say it was cleared, there was no reward, just a blueprint and a chip, the main thing was he didn’t understand this Adventure Map.
There were basically no clues.
To clear this Adventure Map, one must have the "Dungeon Access Card", otherwise, the Warden’s dungeon access card can’t be obtained, and the map can’t be cleared.
Wait...
He realized what was odd: shouldn’t it be the warden’s office, why did the warden have his office built like a dungeon style.
Looks like they’ll have to wait until Ai fully absorbs the chip to understand what this Adventure Map is all about, hopefully, it contains so useful information.
The Fixed Star train set off again!
No matter what.
At least there’s no regret in the "Zombie Basin", all resources were gathered, next they should continue towards the blue area, "Crisis Valley".
This ti—
The Fixed Star train made no stops.
Headed directly towards "Crisis Valley"!
He felt a faint sense of anticipation for this new area.
...
About ten minutes later.
The Fixed Star train sped across the wasteland; Ai’s voice ca through the compartnt’s sound system.
"Master Mang, the information in the chip is fully absorbed."
"How should I say it..."
"This map wasn’t ant for us to enter, we went to the wrong place, it’s an opportunity map for a ’Flesh and Blood Train’."
"A long, long ti ago, a flesh and blood train escaped from here, and the warden found out the way it escaped was that the flesh and blood train transford into a thin layer of flesh armor covering the Train Captain."
"Though human, he had the defense and strength equivalent to a flesh and blood train, practically a superhuman."
"Easily slipping through the gaps in the iron bars."
"And smashed all the dungeons, released all the flesh and blood trains, as for why the one in the corner wasn’t released, remains unknown."
"The warden’s dungeon, those iron bars were for protection; if anything ever happened in the prison, these asures would activate to ensure the warden’s safety, but it couldn’t be opened from the inside, needing rescue from outside."
"But clearly, the chanical Civilization seed to have no ti for such things, leaving the warden to die inside."
"This chip contains his ssage."
"And that blueprint..."
"It was put in by the fleeing flesh and blood train back then, a purple grade accessory; installing this accessory allows a flesh and blood train to maintain rationality as much as possible and gain an upper hand in battles with flesh and blood train."
"From now on—"
"The ultimate fate of transitioning into a flesh and blood train is to rge with the train, but with specific accessories, even in full integration, one can maintain their consciousness; this accessory, for instance, may eventually allow achieving the heights of that train, transforming the flesh and blood train into armor, effectively deifying the flesh and body!"
"And the only thod to open the warden’s dungeon was with your access card, Master Mang."
"Without doubt, the one who traded you the Murphy Stone with this access card was likely a flesh and blood train; theoretically, this opportunity was theirs, but they sold it."
"..."
Chen Mang faintly smirked as he grasped the situation, then tucked the accessory blueprint into the drawer,
confirming that this flesh and blood train was indeed a trap.
We’ll see when it becos useful.
...
Nearly an hour later.
The Fixed Star train reached the boundary between "Zombie Basin" and "Crisis Valley".
A massive veil spanned across the two regions, with three enormous characters floating in the sky.
"Crisis Valley".
On the train’s screen, several lines of text gradually appeared.
-
"The region ahead is a Blue Zone, Crisis Valley."
"The maximum level of monsters can reach Level 12; current train level is Level 10, with high danger level, exercise caution."
-
"A new journey begins."
Sitting inside the train compartnt, Chen Mang gazed ahead at the veil, slowly pushing the control lever, the Fixed Star train accelerated rapidly, surged through the veil straight towards Crisis Valley!
He started to laugh.
He once more felt that adrenaline rush excitent.
"Wish luck, Old Master." He quietly hoped.
Thanks to you, I’m carrying your dreams this far on my journey."
"Without you, there would be no ."
"I owe you a safe journey, and sohow, against all odds, here I am."
"I’ll make sure to offer a few A4 papers the next ti."
