Chapter 3069
In the exclusive room, Su Xiao glanced at the time. There was an hour and a half left before the Empty Seat Banquet started. He could set off.
"Who is going this time?"
"Woof."
Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang signed up first. It had participated in the previous two Empty Seat Banquets and wanted to go see it this time too.
"It might be very lively this time. I'll go join in the fun too."
Baha also signed up. Although it often said lewd words, it also knew the occasion. Baha was very serious when it went to the Empty Seat Banquet the previous two times.
"Meow."
Benny jumped onto the bed. It had to go this time; it had important things to do.
Amu was sleeping soundly on the carpet. It had no interest in the Empty Seat Banquet. The difference between going and not going was just a question of where to sleep.
Su Xiao took out the space card. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Baha, and Benny all approached him. He activated the space card.
Wave~
A spatial fluctuation like water ripples spread. Su Xiao's eyes blurred. When his vision recovered, he heard a clanging, clanging sound coming from under him.
This was inside an iron-black train. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Baha, and Benny were all squeezed into the seats beside Su Xiao. Outside the train window, it was pitch black, as if this train was traveling at high speed in a kind of black liquid. Subtle friction sounds came from around the carriage.
Dim white light shone down from above. Inside the steel train, it was both cold and damp. Red rust seeped out of the seats, a scene of decay and weirdness.
At this moment, the two rows of seats on the train were full of people. These people were hanging their heads, and their appearances could not be seen clearly.
"Where... is this?"
Baha looked around. As soon as it finished speaking, it felt cold all over.
Crack, crack, crack...
Successive crisp sounds of bones being forcibly twisted came. The passengers on the train all turned their heads. Some turned their heads sideways, and some simply turned their heads 180 degrees. Their bodies didn't move, only their necks turned. Wrinkles in the shape of rotation appeared on the skin of their necks.
Pairs of dead-white and godless eyes were looking at Su Xiao, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Baha, and Benny. Seeing this scene, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang almost went into shock. This scene was what it feared most.
"Boss, let's retreat."
"The space card needs to be left still for 10 seconds."
Hearing Su Xiao's words, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang fainted 'happily'. Its hind legs still maintained a high-frequency twitching. Judging by this appearance, if it hadn't clamped tight, it would have already peed itself.
After another burst of crisp cracking sounds, the passengers on the train turned their heads back. The carriage returned to silence, leaving only the friction sounds from the surroundings.
Just after 10 seconds passed, Su Xiao activated the space card. He seriously suspected that this thing was not provided by the Troupe Leader. The Troupe Leader wouldn't be so unreliable.
When the spatial fluctuations dissipated, Su Xiao was already standing on a pure white beach. Men and women in swimsuits were walking on the beach. Some were drifting in the shallow sea. Hot bodies, cold drinks with ice cubes, and sun umbrellas set up—the scene was both lively and relaxing.
Su Xiao glanced at the space card in his hand. After waiting for ten seconds, he activated it again.
"Badurulu... (unknown language)."
A group of guys wearing black robes and looking like aliens were gathered together. The big-headed monster leading them was shouting excitedly, his face full of fanaticism.
"..."
Su Xiao stood among a large group of black-robed big-headed monsters. The big-headed monster beside him bumped him and handed a ritual item similar to a candlestick into his hand, and also smiled kindly.
Su Xiao hesitated for a moment, took the candlestick, and began to wait. A few seconds later, he disappeared from the spot.
Clang, clang...
A familiar scene came into view. It was still that train. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang beside him opened its eyes in a daze. After seeing the scene around, it almost died on the spot.
After waiting for a while, Su Xiao activated the space card again. He didn't believe that he couldn't reach the Barren Continent today.
Unknown forest -> Giant bonfire party -> Unknown location sewer -> Bear cave -> Steel train.
Su Xiao returned to the steel train for the third time. Just at this moment, the train stopped with a creak. A skull appeared on the train door. The skull said gloomily in Void language: "The Barren Continent has arrived. Souls are forbidden to step."
Hearing this sentence, Su Xiao grabbed the back of Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's neck and stepped toward the train door.
Su Xiao got off the steel train, and the train door slammed shut and drove away at an incredible speed, also taking away the darkness around it.
A gust of wind carrying sand and gravel hit. Su Xiao blocked his face with one hand and turned his head. The sand and gravel hit his earlobes, and the pitter-patter sound reached his ears.
Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang raised its head. The scene just now was much more exciting than a horror movie.
A sound of breaking through the air came from above, followed by a loud bang. A tremor appeared from under his feet. The ground under Su Xiao's feet cracked. In the distance, it was as if a meteorite had crashed.
"Meow!"
Benny took a fighting stance. Baha explained: "Don't be nervous, that's an old friend."
Su Xiao walked toward the giant crater in the distance. When he reached the vicinity of the giant crater, he saw a tall figure crawling out of the hole in the ground. Nearly five meters tall, a domineering aura—it was White Bull, no mistake.
"Where is it this time?"
White Bull moved its neck, making a muffled thunder-like cracking sound. It patted the soil on its shoulders, and a space card was clipped between its fingertips.
"Bai Ye? Is this the Barren Continent?"
"Obviously."
As soon as Su Xiao finished speaking, White Bull exerted force on its hand, and the space card between its fingers was clipped into powder. A spatial shock exploded. This was painless and itchy for White Bull.
"Was this spatial prop provided by the Troupe Leader?"
White Bull's expression was not very good. Obviously, he had also been to many places just now.
"Not clear."
Su Xiao perceived the fluctuation of the 【Starry Sky Ring】 on his index finger. The Starry Sky Seat was on the east side, not far from here.
After traveling more than ten kilometers, Su Xiao saw a fog wall that towered into the sky and could not see the end on the left and right sides. There were more than ten steps in front of the fog wall. These steps were only a few meters wide.
Walking up the steps, Su Xiao reached forward with his right hand wearing the 【Starry Sky Ring】. The fog in front of him faded a bit, allowing him to enter it.
Passing through the fog wall a few meters thick, Su Xiao entered the Starry Sky Seat. The Starry Sky Seat was still in its original appearance. In the center, there was a large round stone table, surrounded by seven seats connected to the ground. The size of each seat was slightly different. The shortest seat also had a backrest two meters high. White Bull's seat was the largest, and the Void number 4 was on the backrest.
Su Xiao sat on the seat engraved with the Void number 5. Baha landed on the top of the backrest. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang sat squatting beside Su Xiao's legs, its line of sight level with the stone table, revealing a pair of eyes to observe secretly. Benny jumped onto Su Xiao's legs, yawned, and curled into a ball.
As the host of the Empty Seat Banquet, the black fog figure was already located on the seat number 0, sitting in the main seat.
"Troupe Leader, what's going on with the space card you provided?"
White Bull spoke in a deep voice. Although a certain place he went to just now could not threaten him, it also made his mood very bad.
"Don't mention this matter again."
The eyes under the Troupe Leader's metal mask narrowed, and he crushed the space card in his hand with a crack.
"Everyone, was the journey smooth? Let me tell you, I had to ask someone to get the space card. Why don't... the location of the next Empty Seat Banquet be chosen by me."
Saintess Seat drifted over barefoot and landed on seat number 6, sitting obliquely with her legs bent. She didn't care about dignity or anything; she just sat however she felt comfortable.
As soon as Saintess Seat sat down, she found that the atmosphere was wrong. Three pairs of eyes were looking at her. Saintess Seat, danger!
