The iron gate slowly opened, and a thick scent of dust assailed her.
Looking at the straight stairs leading upwards, Bai Cheng stepped onto them.
Soon, she arrived at a vast circular hall with enormous floor-to-ceiling windows on all sides, and even the do was made of translucent glass.
In the very center, four large screens were suspended, forming a square to display information in all directions.
The edges of this indoor plaza also had countless rooms, and one side even had platform numbers hung and rows of seats arranged.
Bai Cheng's gaze sharpened as she looked at the glowing signs on the doors of the rooms at the end; she seed to see facilities like restrooms and convenience stores?
"This looks just like a real station..."
"No, it is real."
Bai Cheng suddenly understood what the 'maintenance' ntioned in the station's introduction ant.
After five days of wilderness survival, everyone, practically primitives, would undoubtedly find this station, brimming with modern technology, a paradise.
Moreover, the facilities inside were highly likely to be genuinely usable.
Before Bai Cheng could observe the scene outside the station, a series of ssages appeared on the large screen suspended in the center.
【"Station Mission: Defend"】
【"Introduction: The foundation of First Station is a defense system composed of 100 energy keystones, designed to prevent external creatures from entering before the survivors arrive.
But now, the station has attracted the attention of the Infinite Marauderss. The defense failed when the station activated, and now is their best ti to destroy the energy keystones!"】
【"Please do your best to defend your station!"】
【"Mission Reward: Unknown"】
"Are they already attacking?" Bai Cheng frowned.
She quickly moved to the edge of the indoor area, her gaze passing through the floor-to-ceiling windows to look outside.
Her position was on the second floor. All around her was a rugged wasteland, with so areas containing abandoned industrial facilities, even a mine shaft, and many exposed unknown minerals.
And a dozen ters further out was a circular concrete wall.
They surrounded the entire station, completely blocking Bai Cheng's view outside.
Unable to see anything, Bai Cheng raised an eyebrow and murmured without thinking, "Infinite Marauderss... What exactly are they?"
"Miss, they are humans, just like you," Chi Yan, who had been silently standing beside her, suddenly spoke.
"Humans?" Bai Cheng was startled, turning to look at him. "Do you an they are native people with the sa physiological structure as , or... are they also outsiders?"
"Miss, this world originally had no humans," Chi Yan replied.
Bai Cheng was even more surprised. Could it be that there was another system also bringing people over?
Never mind, she would know if she caught one and asked.
"Chi Yan, go deal with them," Bai Cheng waved her hand, giving the order rather indifferently.
"Yes," Chi Yan respectfully responded, then opened one of the windows used for ventilation and leaped out.
Bai Cheng originally had no particular interest in watching, as with Chi Yan's elite-level strength, he could probably deal with all the attacking Infinite Marauderss outside the wall.
Since she couldn't see the process, she naturally lost interest.
Compared to that, Bai Cheng was more willing to seize the ti to explore the station's interior, as besides this place, the minerals outside also belonged to the station's resources.
But just as Bai Cheng was about to wander around, the four screens above her flickered and automatically switched to the surveillance footage outside the wall.
"So smart?" Bai Cheng also stopped, finally seeing the true face of the Infinite Marauderss she was curious about.
They were a group of sallow-faced, haggard, shabbily dressed individuals who looked like marauders or bandits who had been struggling in the wilderness for many years; in fact, they looked more like a group of beggars.
"How is this different ✪ Nоvеlіgһt ✪ (Official version) from what I imagined?"
The na Infinite Marauders sounded quite cool, and Bai Cheng would subconsciously think they were a group of aloof killers in black trench coats.
But this was it?
The mont he leaped from the station, Chi Yan reverted to his true form.
He crouched low, roared, then suddenly leaped, and Bai Cheng saw a massive creature fly up.
The wall a dozen ters away was easily scaled by Chi Yan, followed by a dull thud as he landed.
The ten Infinite Marauderss who were charging imdiately froze in shock.
So of the wild boars even threw their riders off their backs due to the sudden stop.
At this mont, everyone looked up at the colossal creature before them, so astonished, others in disbelief, followed by an intense fear that surged from the depths of their souls.
"What, what the hell is that thing?!" soone shrieked.
But no one answered him; most people were still frozen in place, utterly at a loss.
The scar-faced man leading them was clearly more terrified than the others, because, being well-traveled, he was intimately familiar with the suffocatingly powerful aura before him!
His pupils constricted, and his voice trembled: "De-demon beast, this is a demon beast!!!"
The scar-faced man yelled in terror, quickly pulling on the reins, wanting to escape, having long forgotten about charging the station and his teammates around him.
But the wild boar beneath him was clearly even more terrified, already prostrate on the ground in a submissive posture, unmoving, no matter how the scar-faced man pulled, it was useless.
"Dead pig, run, damn it!!!" the scar-faced man cursed through gritted teeth. "How can a novice station have a demon beast!"
At this mont, he no longer had ti to think so much.
Seeing the people around him still frozen, he quickly dismounted the wild boar, wanting to escape on foot.
These people should be able to buy so ti, I still have a chance...
But as soon as the scar-faced man moved, a huge shadow suddenly appeared on the ground in front of him.
Danger!
All the hairs on his body stood on end, and he froze completely in place.
The next second, he completely lost consciousness.
For Chi Yan, as a demon beast, instantly killing these Infinite Marauderss was no different from killing the wild beasts in the forest.
He only needed to move his paw, unleashing a burst of fla energy to easily kill them instantly; this didn't even count as a battle.
And inside the station, Bai Cheng imdiately withdrew her gaze.
Although she was a survivor and had killed many wild beasts, killing humans was a first, and she inevitably felt uneasy.
She could only constantly remind herself: this is a world where the strong prey on the weak; if I don't kill them, they will kill !
Bai Cheng took a deep breath and looked back at the screen.
She was still very curious if there was anything good in the Infinite Marauderss' broken-down train.
But when she looked up again, the image on the screen had been cut off, and a system prompt popped up again.
【"Congratulations on successfully defending First Station!"】
【"Completion: 100%"】
【"Your completion progress has been recorded, and you have received the reward of ste..."】
The ssage popped up to this point, but it seed to be stuck, with no further information.
Bai Cheng was bewildered: "No, is it a bug???"
