Chapter 81 Black Swan Lake, a Station with Bizarre Rules

Su Yuan felt a tremendous pressure on his shoulder, but fortunately he steadied himself and didn't drop his grip.

Su Yuan then began practicing shadowboxing, throwing hooks, uppercuts, and right straights, starting his training in the train carriage.

To be honest, even he wasn't having an easy time under twelve times the pressure, but fortunately his body was adapting. The pace of the boxing got faster and faster, and then the energy in the carriage was released, and Su Yuan felt a sense of clarity.

Two full hours passed. Su Yuan's sweat kept falling to the ground and being absorbed by the plants. His muscle fibers were tearing wildly, and then being repaired by his own physique. His talent evolution was running wildly.

The results seem to be better than expected.

Finally, a notification sound rang out, and Su Yuan stopped his punching motion.

【ding dong——】

Your body has begun to adapt to the high-gravity environment and is undergoing adaptive strengthening...

[Enhancement complete!]

Congratulations! You have received: Constitution +1.5!

[Congratulations on acquiring the new talent: Immovable Mountain (When subjected to heavy pressure or impact, your body becomes more resilient, reducing damage taken by 30%.)]

A series of system notifications rang in Su Yuan's mind.

He glanced at his own panel.

My physical fitness has successfully broken through the sixty mark, reaching 65.6!

Moreover, I also got a top-tier defensive talent that reduces damage by 30% for free!

"Haha...that's so awesome..."

Su Yuan could no longer contain his joy and let out a hearty laugh.

This is a huge profit!

……

In the following period, Su Yuan did not slack off and continued to train. After awakening his talent, the pressure was reduced a lot, and the subsequent effects were not as good, but his physique was still improving.

65.7...

65.8...

65.9...

Although the rate of improvement was getting slower and slower, every small step forward brought him immense satisfaction.

Just as Su Yuan was feeling refreshed and preparing to unleash another set of punches, Xiao Huo's voice suddenly rang out from the driver's seat.

"Master! We're approaching the fork in the road!"

Upon hearing this, Su Yuan stopped what he was doing and released the gravity.

An indescribable sense of ease instantly spread throughout my body.

He felt like a feather, ready to fly to the sky with just a light jump.

"You arrived so quickly?"

Su Yuan stretched his muscles and bones, and his joints cracked and popped.

He walked to the front of the control panel, where the two clear route maps were quietly displayed on the platform forecaster.

[Route 1: The next stop is "Terra City". Estimated arrival time: 13 hours, 25 minutes, and 15 seconds.]

[Route 2: The next stop is "Black Swan Lake". Estimated arrival time: 00:10:08.]

"Master, which way should we go?" Little Fire asked curiously.

"No rush." ​​Su Yuan shook his head and gently tapped the route to "Black Swan Lake" with his finger.

"We definitely need to go to Terra, but before that, let's go to this place first. We're already here, and Terra is the final destination of everything; this is just a side road."

Terra City's danger level is one star, but Su Yuan knows that this is only on the surface. If he offends the powerful entity behind it, the star level could rise to who knows how high.

The danger level of Black Swan Lake is two stars, and even if there are hidden dangers, it will only rise to three stars at most.

For Su Yuan, the level of danger is now only average, and he can basically crush his way through.

"Small fire, prepare to change course!"

Su Yuan gave the order.

"Okay!"

Xiao Huo responded and immediately focused all his attention on controlling the train.

Ahead, two parallel railway tracks stretch into the distance across the wasteland.

One of them is the main road leading to "Terra City".

The other path, however, is an abandoned fork in the road, covered in rust and weeds, leading to the unknown "Black Swan Lake".

"Let's do it!"

call out!call out!call out!

The train slowly slowed down, and six dark purple, deadly vines, like six awakened giant pythons, suddenly shot out from both sides of the carriage!

Four of them, like steel bars, pierced the ground, fixing the high-speed train firmly in place.

The other two, like two nimble hands, grabbed the already rusted track changer wrench!

"Creak—!"

A sickening metallic creaking sound rang out.

Under the terrifying force of the two vines, the track changer, which had long been integrated with the rails, was actually forced to be turned little by little!

click!

With a crisp sound.

Track switching successful!

Done!

Su Yuan looked out the window at the successfully switched railway tracks and clapped his hands in satisfaction.

"Small fire, well done."

"Hehe, serving my master!"

Little Fire, pleased with the praise, puffed out its little chest and then skillfully manipulated the vines to push the train back onto the right track.

Rumbling--

The train, entwined with vines, started moving again.

As the train entered the fork in the road, the surrounding scenery began to subtly change.

The once barren Gobi Desert has gradually been replaced by patches of low, twisted black shrubs.

The sky, without anyone noticing, had turned gloomy. Thick, dark clouds, like lead weights, pressed down heavily overhead, making it hard to breathe.

A damp, slightly putrid smell began to fill the air.

"It's obvious at a glance that this isn't a good place."

Su Yuan looked at the increasingly gloomy sky outside the window and muttered to himself.

The train traveled on the side track for about ten minutes.

Finally, at the edge of the horizon, a deep, ink-black hue appeared.

It was a lake.

A vast, boundless black lake.

The lake water was neither clear nor murky, but a pure, deep black that seemed to devour all light.

The lake was completely still, lifeless, like a giant black mirror reflecting the gloomy clouds in the sky.

On the shore of that black lake, a majestic, ancient Western-style castle stands quietly.

The castle is built entirely of black stone, with towering spires that pierce the sky like swords, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

A thin, almost imperceptible mist shrouded the castle, making it look more like a ghostly realm standing on the banks of the River Styx.

"Black Swan Lake... Black Castle..."

Su Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly as he looked at the bizarre scene before him.

"Since we're already here, let's explore it properly!"

【ding dong——】

Please sit tight and hold on, the train is about to arrive at your next stop...

[This stop is at Black Swan Lake (a multi-person station)]

[Maximum stopover time: 8 hours.]

As the announcement ended, the train slowly pulled into the station and finally stopped on a stone platform covered with black moss.

wow——

The car doors slid open to both sides.

A cold, damp wind, carrying a strong smell of water and decay, suddenly rushed into the carriage.

At the same time, the familiar semi-transparent text appeared before Su Yuan's eyes as promised.

[Note: Because your perception has surpassed the limits of ordinary humans, you will automatically receive more detailed information each time you enter a new instance.]

[Current number of players in the station: 8]

[Intelligence 1: A bizarre creature called "Black Swan" inhabits Black Swan Lake. These are not true swans, but rather a collection of vengeful spirits that feed on despair and fear.]

[Second piece of information: The castle by the lake is the residence of the 'Black Swan Queen,' who will invite all 'guests' who come here to a grand banquet.]

[Intelligence 3: The banquet has extremely strict rules and etiquette. Any "guest" who violates the rules will be considered to be challenging the Queen. Their soul will be extracted and become the Queen's dinner, while their flesh and blood will become the dishes for the next banquet.]

[Intelligence 4: Inside the castle, besides the Queen and her servants, there are also some 'losers' who have been punished for breaking the rules. They have lost their minds and will attack any living thing.]

[Friendly reminder: The Queen's dinner is about to begin. Being late is not a good habit.]

"A rule-based supernatural dungeon?"

After reading the intelligence, a hint of surprise flashed in Su Yuan's eyes.

This was the first time he had ever encountered a copy of this kind.

"Eight players have already gone in... It seems some have already started 'dining'."

"But judging from the notice above, it seems I'm late."
