Chapter 1790: Newcomers "Assisting"

Buzz——

The rumbling sirens echoed above the Ruoshui Bastion.

Rolling smoke rose from the front of the trains. Numerous figures were crowding to board trains one after another. On the intricately complex tracks resembling a spider web, trains fully loaded with the masses departed in the directions of different domains.

Jing Si's figure hurriedly ran onto the waiting platform. The crowded people almost filled this place. Noises, commanding voices, and the rumbling siren sounds intertwined together, leaving people feeling empty inside, as if this city that had accommodated their entire lives was vigorously bidding them farewell.

Jing Si turned his head to look in a certain direction of the Ruoshui Bastion. In a daze, he seemed to see that aged figure standing alone by the window, watching this city gradually disappear...

"Mr. Jing Si, hurry and board the train." A figure from the Chengtian Prefecture walked over. "The train to the Chengtian Domain is about to depart."

"...En."

Jing Si withdrew his gaze and stepped into the carriage of the Realm Train.

Because it was a special period, the seats on the Realm Train had all been removed. All passengers stood crowded together, like a fully packed can of sardines... It was precisely because of this that the number of people each train could transport also multiplied several times.

Buzz——!!

The rumbling siren sound rang out again, and the train doors were closed.

Accompanied by a shaking sway, as well as everyone uncontrollably leaning and squeezing, the train slowly advanced along the tracks...

The train left the station. The city ruins in the distance slowly retreated behind the window. Rolling thick smoke rose from the devastated blocks. Under the trembling earth and swaying mountains, this massive and prosperous domain was already tottering on the verge of collapse. Seeing this scene, the originally noisy crowd gradually quieted down...

Everyone here could find the place they once lived in the ruins before their eyes. Those daily lives they were still experiencing yesterday, in the blink of an eye, became a hometown they could never return to.

Clatter—— Clatter——

The train continuously advanced along the tracks. Due to the special nature of the trains and tracks, the Calamities within the domain didn't launch an attack on them. Jing Si personally witnessed one terrifying monster after another flashing past the window, crushing their homeland into ruins.

"...En?"

"Are those... people?"

Behind the train window, someone looked at a certain building in the distance and spoke doubtfully.

Jing Si followed his gaze to look. He only saw that within the surging tide of Calamities, two figures were swiftly travelling across the eaves!

That was a youth carrying a Drawing Board on his back, and another youth soaring through the air like a rocket. They didn't flee outside the bastion, but instead, like they were courting death, indiscriminately fired at the surrounding Calamities, drawing the Calamities' angry glares, which then roared and charged at them!

Looking behind them, there were already over a dozen massive Calamities frantically chasing to kill them. From afar, it looked like a heaven-destroying and earth-shattering Calamity Legion.

That youth laughed wildly while flying, leading the mighty and enraged Calamities behind him straight towards the depths of the Ruoshui Bastion!

Whoosh——

The figures of him and that youth carrying the Drawing Board flashed past the train window.

In an instant, Jing Si and Li Shangfeng's gazes briefly met... Inside and outside the window, tranquility and chaos, separated by a pane of glass, two different lives caught a glimpse of each other at this moment.

Jing Si looked at that grinning face, freezing in place for a time.

Only when Li Shangfeng and Lin Xi went far away outside the window, and the mighty Calamities swept past the side of the train, causing the earth to tremble, did Jing Si gradually recover his senses...

Who are they?

The Ruoshui Domain is already about to be destroyed... why are they instead getting closer to the most dangerous place?

Even after the train had gone far away, Jing Si still blankly looked in that direction. Those two figures who seemingly completely contradicted mainstream cognition were destined to leave a deep mark in his mind.

He didn't know who those two people were, and he also wouldn't know that a few days later, an organization named the Dusk Society would become famous throughout the world.

...

"How is it! Am I smart or not!!"

While being chased by countless Calamities, Li Shangfeng laughed loudly, "In terms of strength, we really can't defeat those garrison troops, but we can win by outsmarting them!"

"Where is the outsmarting?!!" Lin Xi dodged the bites of the Calamities behind him with all his might, unable to help but curse,

"You are completely just seeing whose life is tougher! You're a madman!!"

"Hahahahaha, stop pretending kid. You say I'm crazy, but the Calamities you've drawn are even more than mine." Li Shangfeng's gaze looked at the gradually approaching Inner Wall Watchtowers, and the color of madness in his eyes became even denser,

"Hold on a bit longer! We'll reach the Inner Wall up ahead! Let's... do another big wave!"

"??? Still doing a big one?!"

Thud thud thud thud——

At the same time, the Inner Wall Watchtowers.

Accompanied by intense earth tremors spreading over, the Ruoshui garrison troops and Dusk Society members who were in a chaotic battle simultaneously froze, turning their heads to look in the direction the sound came from...

When they saw the mighty Calamities currently surging furiously towards the Inner Wall like a tide, they simultaneously widened their eyes!

"What's the situation?!" Queen of Diamonds had a dumbfounded face.

The Ruoshui garrison troops were even more Heart Turned To Ashes. Resisting the Dusk Society on one side and the Calamities on the other side, they had already reached their limit now... With so many Calamities coming all at once, relying on them, they probably wouldn't be able to defend no matter what.

But...

In front of those Calamities, are there still two people?

At the same time, a voice full of vigor rang out from the front of the Calamity tide!

"Hello seniors! Dusk Society's Nine of Hearts, leading a grand army of Calamities! Coming to assist everyone in battle!!"

The Dusk Society members: ?????

"No... is this bro sick in the head!!"

Jack of Diamonds, who was engaged in a fierce battle with the garrison troops, widened his eyes. "Does he want to beat us to death together with the garrison troops??"

"Is this a newcomer of the 9 series..." The Nine of Spades, wearing a black Chinese-style long gown, also had a somewhat strange expression. "He's actually a madman."

"Hehe, this King actually finds it very interesting..."

Jack of Hearts gripped his Curved Blade, his golden accessories clinking as he moved rapidly. He narrowed his eyes at the mighty Calamity army crashing over, the corners of his mouth slightly curling up,

"What does this bit of Calamity count as... Wait until the Calamities break through the Inner Wall, then we'll just kill all the Calamities in one breath."

Right after Jack of Hearts finished speaking, Li Shangfeng roared loudly, his shoulders directly springing open. Countless missiles blasted towards other nearby Calamities like a curtain of rain. Continuous explosive sounds resounded through the clouds!

Pairs of furious pupils opened in the rolling dust and smoke. Immediately after, they looked angrily over here... The number of Calamities chasing behind Li Shangfeng violently doubled again!

The smile on Jack of Hearts's mouth abruptly stiffened.
