Star Railway: The Pioneer's Journey

Chapter 10 Fierce Battle in the Space Station

Two systems ago, the antimatter legion launched a full-scale invasion of the space station and is still continuously increasing its forces.

Although the small fry of Destruction are nothing, even without Yunzhi, Danheng and Sanyueqi would be fine.

There were quite a few of them. Through the window, Yunzhi could see one virtual soldier after another emerging from the void and launching an attack on the space station.

The space station is huge; aimlessly running around won't work.

"Let's go find the stationmaster first. I just don't know if the Great Lord of Annihilation has appeared here yet."

March 7th had complete confidence in Yun Zhi: "Even if it's the Great Lord of Annihilation, Zhi, you can defeat them!"

Although everyone on the Starry Sky Train knew his identity and had high hopes for his strength, Yun Zhi still gave him a half-moon look: "Don't make me sound so amazing. If I really encounter someone who can counter me, I might have to ask him for help."

The "he" here naturally refers to [Hunter] himself.

Dan Heng pierced the phantom soldier that lunged at him with a single spear thrust, and the phantom soldier fell to the ground and disappeared.

"If we want to find the station chief, we need to go to the main control module of the space station first."

A qualified station manager would definitely be guiding the evacuation right now, and the managers chosen by Black Tower would certainly not be fools who are afraid of trouble.

Yun fired an arrow into the corridor, instantly wiping out all the illusory soldiers in the entire corridor.

"Okay, maybe I should have memorized the map of the space station before I came."

A lack of understanding of the environment can be fatal.

Lady Black Tower and the train navigator Himeko have some dealings, so the train sometimes stops at the space station. However, Yunzhi has never gotten off the train to explore the space station. Himeko said that Black Tower is very interested in the Star God, and Yunzhi doesn't want to be bombarded with questions by a genius.

They might even be dragged into experiments.

I'm not afraid, but it's really boring.

"It's not too late for you to memorize it when you get back," Danheng said.

March 7th sighed, "Let's not discuss maps for now, let's hurry up and go."

He was talking while putting shields on them.

Yunzhi looked at Danheng: "Have you contacted the stationmaster? Ask her about the situation there."

"I'm doing it."

Danheng was running while tapping something on his phone.

Fortunately, the antimatter legion did not seem to have launched a large-scale invasion, and communications were not paralyzed, so Danheng easily contacted the stationmaster, Estádio.

He put down his phone shortly after: "Station Chief Está said that everyone has been evacuated, but Alan from the Defense Section is out of contact."

Estelle added at the end, "If it's possible, could you please go and look for him?"

It's really convenient.

Yun was about to nod.

Suddenly, a loud bang came from deeper inside the space station.

Then, all the screens around me suddenly went black, as if the power had been cut off.

Did the explosion just now paralyze the power lines?

Suddenly, Yun Zhi's brows furrowed, and he looked at another path that stretched into the unknown.

This strange feeling of being entangled in spider silk...

There's someone... over there.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing him stop, March 7th and Danheng also looked at him.

Yunzhi closed his eyes briefly: "Let's split up. I'll go check over there."

"Hey...hey! Be careful then!"

The hunters, known for their speed, could not keep up with their full-speed run, so Danheng and March 7th had no choice but to turn around and run ahead.

And somewhere on the space station...

The purple-haired woman in a business suit lowered her head to adjust her cuffs as the phantom soldiers behind her pounced on her.

Just as it was about to touch her hair, the illusory soldier suddenly turned into specks of data and vanished into thin air.

"It's not my job to clean up other people's messes, right, Kafka?" The silver-haired girl waved away the virtual screen in front of her, jumped off the table, and looked at her companion.

She teleported the phantom soldier away by modifying real-world data.

"Okay, okay, let me see what you were looking at just now."

Kafka knew that anything the genius hacker Silver Wolf was interested in was absolutely fascinating.

Silver Wolf didn't hide anything: "The Black Tower's toys, the space station's catalog of curiosities, contain many interesting things."

Kafka raised an eyebrow: "For example?"

"A gun that can score living things, ranging from zero to one hundred."

Kafka was somewhat disappointed: "What's so interesting about this?"

Silver Wolf chuckled, "Don't you want to know your score? I'd really like to know."

"Sure, if it's on my way, let's go check it out... Where's our destination?"

"Continue deeper into the corridor on the left, and you'll find a room containing some kind of strange object." Silver Wolf looked in a certain direction.

Kafka had already set off: "Then let's hurry, it seems that 'variable' is coming soon."

Silver Wolf was somewhat displeased: "I really don't know why the First Commander isn't following the [Hunting] properly, but instead comes here to compete with us."

"At least it's a good thing, that's what Elio said, isn't it?" Kafka wasn't worried about it. She believed Elio's prediction, and most importantly, she wanted "her" or "him" to join the Star Train.

"Alright, hurry up then, that guy's fast."

Silver Wolf quickly erased their tracks and released some false information to deceive the pursuers.

Although she knew it wouldn't be of much use, something was better than nothing.

Kafka and Silver Wolf quickened their pace.

They walked down the corridor into a room and found what they were looking for.

"Using artifacts to conceal other artifacts has always been Black Tower's forte, and this place is no exception."

Silver Wolf's browsing of the Black Tower's catalog of curiosities wasn't just out of interest; she understood the Black Tower and finding the key from the catalog wouldn't be difficult for her.

Moreover, the artifact used to conceal the "star core" is not even anything complicated.

That's just a simple deflected light field that makes things in the area less noticeable. Once other things are no longer conspicuous, it will be exposed.

Kafka exclaimed, "The Black Tower uses such simple little gadgets to hide her treasures?"

Silver Wolf chuckled. "The simpler it is, the harder it is to detect. Isn't that our motto?"

"really."

With the pursuers closing in, Kafka and Silver Wolf decided to waste no more time.

After finding the star core captured by the Black Tower, Silver Wolf immediately prepared the vessel "Star," while Kafka took the star core and pressed it against her chest—

At the same time, a young man wielding a longbow also burst in.

"ah......"

However, the blue-haired youth did not attack them immediately, but instead uttered a sound that seemed to be both an exclamation and a surprise.

"It's you guys again."

"Is that madman who claims to be able to see fate preparing to do something that will shake the world?"
