Deities Are All Just My Food-Chapter 35 Sea Water Train_1
35: Chapter 35 Sea Water Train_1
35 -35 Sea Water Train_1
“Brace yourself!”
Lin Baici immediately let go and looked at Xia Hongyao next to the window.
The girl with the high ponytail hairstyle was a God Hunter, so she should be able to become a teammate.
Just as Lin Baici was about to physically wake her up, Xia Hongyao opened her eyes on her own.
As expected of a God Hunter, her resistance was stronger than that of ordinary people.
“Rule pollution?”
Xia Hongyao’s willow-shaped eyebrows furrowed, followed by an excited expression on her face.
I, Xia Hongyao, have finally found my chance to make a name for myself in one battle.
Just you watch,
within three years, I will definitely become one of the Nine Provinces Dragon Wing.
“Hey, do you know what’s going on here?”
Lin Baici asked Xia Hongyao.
He reached for his backpack on the luggage rack, unzipped it, and reached inside.
“There are God Hunters on this train, it’s very likely that the seal on their Taboo things was accidentally released…”
Xia Hongyao stopped mid-sentence and suddenly shut her mouth, watching Lin Baici warily.
This kid is also a God Hunter.
“Stop looking, it wasn’t me!”
Lin Baici said exasperatedly, “If I were the bad guy, you’d be the first one I’d kill.”
Xia Hongyao was startled.
Right!
This kid actually woke up a few seconds before me?
This means he either has a better physical constitution, higher resistance to rule pollution than me, or he’s extremely experienced, noticed the problem in advance, and prepared for it.
Whichever it was, Xia Hongyao felt somewhat outdone.
It made her a little frustrated.
What?
The guy in seat 18D is also awake?
You’re joking, seeing how that guy is standing on the seat, grasping the luggage rack, he doesn’t look strong.
Plus, there’s a handprint on his face, which clearly means he was slapped awake.
Ey!
Hongyao, your deductive skills are getting more and more impressive.
You do justice to someone who frequently reads Sherlock Holmes’ detective stories!
“What do you usually do in this situation?”
Lin Baici didn’t want to reveal the Black Tripod Bowl, so while shielding with his backpack, he took out a Songmu torch.
“…”
18D saw this and his eyes suddenly bulged.
What the hell?
Why do you have a torch in your backpack?
Are you a savage?
Wait, the torch is obviously longer than the backpack.
How did you fit it in there?
“Taboo things?”
Xia Hongyao’s eyes lit up, she hadn’t seen wrong, this kid was indeed a God Hunter: “Which organization are you from?”
“Guangqing City No.
2 Middle School!”
Lin Baici took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.
He thought of the man in the suit with the black briefcase he encountered in the waiting hall.
“No.
2 Middle School?”
Xia Hongyao looked confused.
Is there such an organization in the hunter circles?
She had never heard of it!
Was it newly established?
Seeing High Ponytail’s expression, Lin Baici knew she had misunderstood, and he felt speechless.
She truly was a D-grade intellect.
Did she invest all her talent points in strength like Big Bear?
“I just graduated from high school, and I became a God Hunter by accident this summer!”
Lin Baici explained.
Next, he certainly would have to use Taboo things and Divine Grace; it was not something he could hide, so he might as well say it ahead of time and give the impression of being honest and straightforward.
“…”
Xia Hongyao didn’t believe him, a wild God Hunter so young?
You’re kidding me!
Without an experienced hunter leading the team in God’s ruins,
you’d have been a maggot-infested corpse by now.
Of course, now wasn’t the time to argue about these things.
This big guy did indeed not seem to be the source of the rule pollution.
“You two stay here, don’t walk around carelessly, I’ll take care of the enemy!”
Xia Hongyao looked towards both ends of the carriage.
“Rule pollution?
Taboo things?”
18D was dumbfounded hearing these terms.
He had seen such posts on the internet before but never expected to witness it in person.
18D instinctively turned to look at Lin Baici.
Dammit!
This kid is actually a hunter who can hunt gods?
“Do you know where the enemy is?”
Lin Baici perked up, “I can help!”
“I don’t know!”
Xia Hongyao was confident, “But I can deduce it!”
“…”
Lin Baici felt this girl was unreliable.
How can you deduce anything with so little information right now?
And seeing the speed of the rising seawater, it could fill the carriage in at most ten minutes, and by then all these passengers would be dead.
“Smash the window!”
Lin Baici urged.
“Huh?”
Xia Hongyao was taken aback, then had a moment of realization, “You want to attract the enemy over here?”
Good!
This kid is braver than I thought!
I like it!
“Attract nothing, I’m telling you to open the window to let the water out!”
Lin Baici watched the surroundings vigilantly, not even sparing what was underwater.
“Oh!
Oh!”
Xia Hongyao was embarrassed by her wrong deduction.
By now, the seawater had already spread over the window, about five centimeters above the lower edge of the glass.
If they broke the window, the seawater should be able to flow out.
Xia Hongyao clenched her five slender fingers together and threw a punch at the window.
Bang!
Crash!
The glass shattered all over the place.
Lin Baici’s eyelids twitched!
That was a high-speed train window, and she had shattered it with one punch?
What kind of monstrous strength was that?
But instantly, Lin Baici had no spare energy to worry about such things because the seawater didn’t flow out through the broken window.
It was as if it was blocked by an invisible barrier.
“What…
what’s going on?”
18D panicked.
If the water couldn’t flow out, wouldn’t that mean everyone would drown?
Xia Hongyao seemed unfazed.
“Rule pollution has already enveloped the entire train.
To lift it, we must find the Taboo things as soon as possible!”
“Eater God, give me some intel!”
Lin Baici called out in his mind.
There was no response from the Eater God, but a strong sense of hunger struck him,
very intense.
Instinctively, Lin Baici looked towards the front of the train where something delicious seemed to be tempting him!
“To the head of the train!”
Lin Baici entered the water.
The sea water instantly rose to his navel, making it very difficult for him to take each step.
Fortunately, the passengers were all in a drowsy state.
If they were to struggle chaotically for their lives, they would certainly block the way.
From her backpack, Xia Hongyao pulled out a straight-blade black dagger over a foot long, immediately followed behind, while also eagerly asking for guidance.
“Why choose this way?”
“Intuition!”
Lin Baici certainly wouldn’t tell anyone that his hunger felt like a radar, able to point him in the direction of valuable items.
“Hey, hey, where are you guys going?”
18D panicked.
“Don’t leave me behind!”
“Stay here, and wait for our good news!”
Xia Hongyao reassured.
18D didn’t listen and lunged forward.
Splash!
Into the water he went.
Do I look stupid?
Following two God Hunters must be safer than staying alone, right?
18D looked at the silhouette of Lin Baici carrying an unlit torch, his gaze filled with a fair amount of envy and some admiration.
Envious because he was a mysterious and powerful God Hunter!
Admiring because he wasn’t just thinking of saving his own life; he was staying like a superhero, ready to solve the rule pollution and save the people on the train.
“The food delivery has come right to our doorstep, not eating it would really be a waste of this takeaway!”
There was excitement in Eater God’s voice.
Gurgling!
Lin Baici’s stomach growled,
and he was hungry.
In the God’s ruins of the Dragon Temple, that feeling of hunger, so intense he could have boiled his shoes to eat, had descended upon him for the second time.
“There’s no meteorite falling now, so there shouldn’t be any God’s bones on the train, right?”
Lin Baici wasn’t moving fast—not that he wasn’t in a hurry, but walking in such deep water was just too difficult.
The trio walking stirred the water, creating small waves that hit the carriage and rolled back.
A female corpse was pushed by the waves in front of Lin Baici.
Her eyes were wide open, already devoid of light.
Lin Baici, having seen plenty of corpses in the Dragon Temple, still felt some discomfort.
He pushed the corpse away with his hand and continued forward.
Carriage 06 was reached!
Snack bags, instant noodle boxes, food scraps, even a lady’s slipper were floating on the water.
Lin Baici didn’t rush in but stood at the junction of the carriages, peering inside.
“What’s up?”
Xia Hongyao stood shoulder to shoulder with him.
“Observing!”
Lin Baici was cautious.
“There’s someone!”
18D pointed and exclaimed.
In the front half of carriage 06, around seats six or seven, a young man with headphones threw away the items on the rack above him and leaned over it.
“A human with decent resistance!”
People’s speed of turning into dead flesh under the radiation of God’s bones and the rule pollution caused by Taboo things varied.
The slower they turned, the higher their resistance and the greater their chance of survival.
The man with headphones was panicking.
Seeing Lin Baici and the others, he immediately called out.
“What the hell happened?”
Finding another living person at last,
the man with headphones was excited.
“Ever heard of rule pollution?
It’s happening right now.
Come quickly, we need to stick together to survive!” freёnovelkiss.com
18D was not saying this out of kindness but because he felt having one more person would mean one more bait in case of danger.
The man with headphones clearly didn’t have such scheming and had also heard about the horrors of rule pollution, and thus he was tempted.
He moved to get off the luggage rack.
Lin Baici continued forward, but after a few steps, he stopped abruptly.
After devouring the Meteorite and God’s bones, not only had his physical abilities improved, but his eyesight had gotten much better as well.
Even from over thirty meters away, he could see a shadow under the water surface, seemingly swimming in from the other side of the carriage.
“Nobody move!”
Lin Baici growled lowly, startling the man with headphones.
“What’s going on?”
18D was on high alert.
“Something’s in the water!”
Lin Baici explained.
“What?”
18D’s entire back tensed, and he wanted to climb onto a seat.
“Don’t move!”
Lin Baici looked back and glared fiercely at 18D.
He was only five meters behind him; if he attracted the monster, Lin Baici was likely to be affected as well.
“Don’t be afraid, I’m here!”
Xia Hongyao offered reassurance, but she still approved of Lin Baici’s caution.
Taboo things are unpredictable and terrifying, and one can never be too careful.
18D and the man with headphones didn’t dare breathe heavily, their whole bodies stiff.
More than twenty seconds passed.
No monsters attacked.
“Did you see it wrong?”
18D was skeptical.
“The water’s rising quickly!”
The man with headphones was anxious enough to cry.
“We have to get out of here quickly!”
Lin Baici glanced at the man with headphones, hesitated for a moment, and said nothing.
The education he had received and his moral standards did not allow him to deceive the man with headphones into becoming expendable.
But if the man with headphones was seeking his own death, then it had nothing to do with him.
“It’s pretty quick—let’s move it!”
18D was also urging.
“Okay!”
Lin Baici nodded and slowly took a step forward, then quickly stopped again.
He was trying his best not to create any ripples.
The man with headphones lacked such meticulous caution.
He stepped off the luggage rack onto the floor, and while anxiously moving forward, he called out to Lin Baici and the others, “Hurry up, let’s get the door open!”
“Come on!”
Xia Hongyao wanted to go and noticed Lin Baici wasn’t moving; just as she reached out to push him, a shadow suddenly leaped out of the water near the man with headphones and clung to his face.
