Death Train: SSS-level talent right from the start!
Chapter 239 [Ice Abyss] Cao Bing
The middle-aged man spoke first: "I am Cao Bing, a passenger on train G4921. The palace below should be the location of the Extreme Cold Ice Lord. I presume that you are all high-level combatants from your respective trains. Since everyone is here, let's get off together."
After saying this, he glanced at Chen Ye and Lu Qingchuan, then turned his gaze to Zhong Xiu, as if waiting for a response.
Zhong Xiu stood with his arms crossed at the edge of the ridge, his gaze fixed on Cao Bing's face: "Let's wait a bit longer. There are many monsters below, each one a BOSS-level monster. We still have plenty of time; it's not too late for the passengers who haven't arrived yet to hurry up and come over."
Lu Qingchuan nodded slightly: "Okay. Anyway, we have plenty of time, and we won't be in a hurry."
Chen Ye remained silent, his gaze still fixed on the palace below. Gu Qinghuan sensed that there were still monsters inside the palace, so the monsters outside were at most security guards. There might be many monsters, so it was indeed unwise for this small group of people to rush down now.
"These bosses aren't that strong. With our strength, it shouldn't be difficult for us to break through. Let's finish the trial mission as soon as possible to avoid any unexpected complications."
The speaker was a young man standing next to Cao Bing. He was Cao Bing's younger brother, Cao Yan, and the two were brothers with a difference of more than ten years.
Zhong Xiu turned her head, her gaze lingering on Cao Yan's face for a moment: "Then you can go by yourselves, no one is stopping you."
Cao Yan's expression changed slightly. He was about to speak when Cao Bing stopped him.
Cao Bing glanced at his younger brother, and Cao Yan was silenced. Although his brows were still slightly furrowed, he did not speak again.
Cao Bing faced the crowd again, a nonchalant smile playing on his lips: "My brother just wants to finish the trial mission as soon as possible. Young people are impatient. Since everyone feels it's necessary to wait for the other passengers, then let's wait."
As time went on, more and more teams came to the central area.
The first to arrive were the teams of Lü Yang and Wu Hao.
Wu Hao's gaze swept over the crowd that had gathered on the ridge, paused for a moment in the direction of Chen Ye and Lu Qingchuan, and then led his team straight over. He stopped about five or six meters away from Chen Ye's team, and without saying anything, he simply nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
Su Jin's group also arrived. She walked at the front, followed by Yang Qing, Wang Ze, and Xia Yan. The four of them looked a little tired after walking this long distance.
Su Jin led his team to Chen Ye's side. Without saying anything more, he simply stood still, adjusted his breathing, and silently observed the ice crystal palace below.
Jiang Ning also arrived. He walked up a gentle slope on the side alone. His windbreaker was covered with snow and ice, making him look like he had been walking in the snow for a long time.
He stopped at the edge of the ridge, not moving towards the crowd, but standing next to a protruding ice rock, about twenty or thirty meters away from Chen Ye and Lu Qingchuan's group.
Passengers on train G4928 arrived one after another, and groups of people came from different directions along the ridgeline, crossed the snow-covered rocky slopes, and gathered around Zhong Xiu and Yang Lan.
The number of passengers on train G4921 was also increasing, reaching nearly 50 by evening. These passengers had also spontaneously gathered around Cao Bing's group.
More and more passengers gathered on the ridge, and by the time it got dark again, there were more than a hundred people, more than half of whom were passengers on train G4921.
Three days have passed since the trial began. Including the one day needed to return, the group only has three days left to storm the palace and kill the Ice Lord.
The number of giant beasts gathered outside the palace reached more than thirty.
The enormous figures moved slowly around the palace, maintaining a certain distance from each other. They did not attack each other, nor did they leave their respective areas, as if they were part of an invisible patrol route.
At this moment, Cao Bing took a step forward and stood on the frozen rock at the edge of the ridge. His gaze swept over the ice field shrouded in twilight and the ice crystal palace below: "Now we have enough people. Before it gets dark, let's clear out those monsters outside the palace."
The moment those words were spoken, the crowd on the ridge stirred slightly.
Some people turned to look at the people next to them and exchanged glances, some gripped their weapons tighter, and some changed from a squatting position to a standing position.
Lu Qingchuan turned his head and his gaze met Chen Ye's from a few steps away.
The two did not exchange any further words, but simply nodded slightly to each other.
Lu Qingchuan withdrew his gaze: "Then let's begin."
This time, Zhong Xiu did not object. Her golden wings suddenly unfolded, and countless tiny golden light spots fell from the wingtips.
Her right foot had already pushed off the ground, and she launched herself off the edge of the ridge, drawing a golden arc in the air as she hurtled towards the nearest bear-like monster on the ice field below.
Gulina followed closely behind, her jet-black demon wings unfurling from her back. The dark patterns on her wing membranes shimmered faintly in the twilight. She too took to the air, the long hammer glowing with a pale blue light already in her hand.
Immediately afterwards, the crowd on the ridge began to move.
Hundreds of people surged down the ridgeline, their footsteps echoing across the snow-covered rocky slope. Some drew their weapons as they ran, while others began to gather the light of their skills as they moved at high speed.
Chen Ye did not deliberately speed up; he maintained a steady pace as he walked down the slope, holding the Dragon Scale Halberd horizontally in his hand, the pale purple halo around the spear flowing smoothly in the twilight.
Zhao Hai, Wen Ning, Qin Zhaoyang, and Zhou Yating followed slightly behind him, while Gu Qinghuan was at the very back of the group. Six silver-white throwing knives hovered around her at an extremely low frequency, ready to be activated at any moment.
As the five of them charged down the slope, a chaotic battle involving a hundred people erupted across the ice field.
