Chapter 58.3

Other than the subway track, the tunnel had no extra room for people to walk. If you let him jump out of the compartment and run forward along the track, it was no different from directly dying. Could a person’s two legs outrun a high-speed subway?

Could he only close his eyes, lie down and wait to die?

At this moment, Xiao Tangqiu felt despair. He never expected that this S-Class instance would be so dangerous. Right from the start until now, he had faced multiple life and death crises... and he didn’t even know if this instance had officially started.

If he died before the instance officially started, wouldn’t he be made fun of by Tang Mianmian for the rest of his life? Of course, the premise was that Tang Mianmian could survive to the end ...

And Shen Yuan... if Shen Yuan knew he was dead, what would he do?

Xiao Tangqiu suddenly gritted his teeth and jumped out of the compartment. But instead of running forward along the track, he lunged towards the gap between the track and the tunnel wall. He pressed his body tightly against the wall to try to use the gap to avoid the high-speed subway.

By the time the subway was less than a meter behind him, he had already felt the strong wind rushing at his face. He pressed against the tunnel wall strongly in fear of being caught in the subway tracks by the gust of wind.

Dang dang dang dang—

The subway passed at high speed right against Xiao Tangqiu’s back. At this moment, he almost suffocated from fear.

Dang dang dang dang—

Xiao Tangqiu closed his eyes in despair.

Dang dang dang dang...

The sound of the subway gradually moved away. After a while, Xiao Tangqiu slowly opened his eyes... he was not dead?

Wait, he didn’t seem to have heard the subway crash into the compartment?

Xiao Tangqiu turned his head and looked at the track only to discover that the compartment had disappeared!

He couldn’t help but be confused. What’s going on?

He waited quietly for a while but didn’t hear anything else. So he went onto the track, intending to go along the track until he reached the exit... although he didn’t know if there was an exit for this track.

Xiao Tangqiu started to run along the subway track. He didn’t know how long or how far he ran. By the time he was exhausted, he suddenly heard the sound of dangdang coming from behind him!

The subway passed by Xiao Tangqiu again, and this time he chose to look into the compartment with his eyes wide open. He would like to see if this was a normal subway!

He looked at it with held breath. The first compartment was very normal. Most of them were office workers with tired faces. They were standing or sitting because they had too many people and they had to be next to each other. It was very normal.

The second compartment was also very normal. There were students, office workers and retired middle-aged women.

The third compartment, the fourth compartment...

No matter how you look at it, this was a very normal subway. Just as Xiao Tangqiu was thinking that, he suddenly noticed that after the first few compartments, the brand-new compartments became rusty and worn. And the people... the people in the compartment were all covered with blood, their hands and feet broken, and they looked like they had a serious car accident!

When Xiao Tangqiu looked in through the window, they also seemed to see Xiao Tangqiu and immediately flew towards him. They seemed to want to ask for help. They looked with fear and despair. Although he could not hear their voices, Xiao Tangqiu could guess what they were screaming and shouting—

Help! Help! Help me!

This compartment passed quickly and the condition of the next compartment was as terrifying as hell on earth. Even the walls of the compartment were stained with blood.

Xiao Tangqiu was terrified and clung tightly to the tunnel wall. The people inside the compartment desperately reached out to him, asking for help and wanting to live ...

When the last compartment came by, he suddenly felt a strong unpleasant premonition. His whole body subconsciously slipped down. The next second, the glass of the last compartment suddenly broke open and a skeletal hand rushed out, seizing at where he had been standing!

Fortunately, Xiao Tangqiu slipped down and avoided the terrible hand!

The last compartment also passed and he sat paralyzed on the ground with a bit of anxiety. After a while, there was a huge crashing sound from ahead. It seemed that the subway hit something!

Xiao Tangqiu unwittingly turned his head and wanted to run in the opposite direction from the subway. But after he hesitated for a moment, he finally turned and walked in the direction of the subway.

Xiao Tangqiu didn’t know how long he walked in this underground tunnel. This underground tunnel was too long. It seemed so long that the end could never be seen. There was always an endless darkness in front of his eyes.

At first, he was still running. But he eventually became exhausted and could only slow down and slowly move along the track.

He gradually became tired and numb... Just as he was on the verge of despair, a light finally appeared in front of him.

Xiao Tangqiu regained his energy instantly and he immediately rushed towards the light for fear that the light would disappear.

That spot of light grew brighter and brighter until it finally became completely bright. He finally arrived at the exit of the underground tunnel!

The long-absent light stung his eyes but he couldn’t bear to stop, instead squinting his eyes and running forward. Just as he was about to run to the exit, he heard the sudden whistle of wind!

Dang dang dang dang—

Xiao Tangqiu turned his head and saw the familiar subway rush straight towards him!

It’s over! This time there’s no hiding!

Why did it happen just as he was about to leave this underground tunnel?

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, even the air was frozen, and he unthinkingly closed his eyes.

Just when Xiao Tangqiu thought he was going to be smashed back in the next second, the violent wind suddenly disappeared!

He opened his eyes and saw that there was no subway at all, only a black tunnel and a rusty abandoned track.

He was already covered in cold sweat and couldn’t help but take a step back, dropping to sit on the ground. At this moment, a shout came from nearby, “Qiuqiu? Is Qiuqiu you?”

Xiao Tangqiu turned his head stiffly just to see Tang Mianmian flying towards him and plunging into his arms, “Qiuqiu! Scared me to death! I thought you... What happened to you!”

Without waiting for Xiao Tangqiu to answer, Tang Mianmian was pulled entirely off of him. Shen Yuan squeezed in front of Xiao Tangqiu and stared straight at him, black eyes darkened, “Jiujiu, where did you just go? ”

This past month, Shen Yuan obviously became more rational and progressive than when he woke up. Although he still had no previous memories, he had accepted and understood many things under the inculcation of everyone. But the only thing that was unchanged was his dependence and possessiveness of Xiao Tangqiu.

After seeing Shen Yuan and Tang Mianmian, Xiao Tangqiu was finally at ease. He gave a big sigh of relief and smiled reluctantly, “I’m fine, just now ...”

He quickly spoke about what had just happened, and at this time the Reincarnation Team people came over one by one.

After listening to his narrative, Xue Junli asked mildly, “You said you just met a ghost subway in the tunnel behind you?”

Xiao Tangqiu nodded fearfully, “Yes.”

Xue Junli paused and told Xiao Tangqiu mildly, “We just sent Duan Hongzhen to take a look, it was an abandoned tunnel.”

Xiao Tangqiu smiled bitterly, “I saw that just now.”

“Not only that, this is not an ordinary underground tunnel in a city, but a train tunnel through the mountains. It is impossible for the subway to take the train tunnel unless it derails,” Xue Junli said a pun without changing expression. “Duan Hongzhen walked a long way in the tunnel. If he didn’t shirk, this tunnel has an end, and it is not far in, only a bit over a hundred meters. ”

Xiao Tangqiu was stunned, “Only a bit over a hundred meters?”

Duan Hongzhen lazily spoke up from the sidelines, “Yes, there is only a bit more than a hundred meters. There is a landslide at the end. Those rocks blocked my way, and it also cut off the tunnel. Besides, we’ve only been in the instance for maybe ten minutes. You said you’ve been in the tunnel for at least half an hour? ”

Xiao Tangqiu fell into contemplation and was speechless for a long time.

“And most importantly, when I was exploring this tunnel just now,” Duan Hongzhen stared at Xiao Tangqiu for a while, “I didn’t see you.”

Without waiting for Xiao Tangqiu to speak, Shen Yuan immediately said coldly, “I believe Jiujiu!”

Xue Junli and Duan Hongzhen both stopped for a moment, then the two of them twitched at the same time, Xue Junli smiled bitterly, “We didn’t mean to doubt Xiao Tangqiu, we just thought there might be a problem with this tunnel.”

Shen Yuan snorted. “We knew from the beginning that there was a problem with this tunnel.”

“Although that’s what I said...” Xue Junli reached out and rubbed his temples, “but now that I look at it, this tunnel may be an important clue related to the plot. As for the things Xiao Tangqiu saw, it may be his hallucinations, it could also be a flashback of a scene, a hint of clues. ”

“Flashback of a scene? A hint of clues?” Xiao Tangqiu couldn’t help repeating it.

“Yes. Didn’t you realize that each instance has a certain logic and plot? It’s like a well rounded and complete story,” Xue Junli said calmly. “Our mission goal is to find relevant clues and reasoning by figuring out the logic and plot, find important items, and finally complete the mission. ”

“Isn’t that just like a game?” Tang Mianmian couldn’t help but interject.

“That’s right,” Duan Hongzhen snorted. “That’s why we call this place an instance, and players and whatever... These terms are all invented by Xue Junli.”

“Invented by Xue Junli?” Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian were stunned. They thought that these terms were previously already in place!

“Not only that,” Duan Hongzhen raised his chin. “You should have been on the Abyss Forum already? That stuff was invented by this guy, too.”
