“This is my office. Please make yourself at home.”
The conductor walked to the long mahogany table and sat down. He picked up a brass-tipped pipe and started smoking.
He didn’t seem to have any intention of chasing them away.
“Can I ask you a few questions?” Wang Chen asked tentatively.
He had been inexplicably brought to this godforsaken place. Although he suddenly possessed powerful strength, the feeling of confusion still made Wang Chen feel a little unhappy.
The conductor must have a much better understanding of all this than him.
“If it’s not against the rules, 1 can answer your question. However, there is no free lunch in this world.” The conductor’s eyes revealed a cunning look.
“What do you want?” Wang Chen asked.
“If you can leave the Doomsday World one day, 1 hope you can appoint me to send you away.”
“Leave the Doomsday World one day? But aren’t we leaving?” Wang Chen was stunned.
The conductor’s words made him even more confused!
The conductor tapped his pipe and said, “No, you’re about to leave Doomsday World 7569 and head to Doomsday World 1453. Your journey has just begun!”
There was a meaningful smile on his face.
“Compared to you, 1 am very weak,” Wang Chen said.
The conductor exhaled a mouthful of smoke and smiled bitterly. “I’m a loser. Strength is useless to me. Moreover, you completed a world’s exclusive mission in less than ten days. You’ll definitely be stronger than me in the future!”
His eyes lit up as he stared at Wang Chen. A Descender who grew so quickly was probably unprecedented.
“You were once a Descender?” Wang Chen was shocked. At first, he thought that the conductor was a creation of the system.
“That’s right. As long as you have 10 billion Spirit Points, you can become an employee of the Doomsday Facility like me. However, your service period is eternal and you can’t resign,” the conductor said.
“Forever? Aren’t you old?” Wang Chen was very surprised.
If that was really the case, wouldn’t that be a huge profit?
Immortality was the dream of many!
“Earn? I haven’t left the Doomsday Train for 10,000 years! The metal can at the door is even worse off. It has been a ticket seller for 100,000 years.
“This is a curse! A curse for the weak!” the conductor said through gritted teeth. However, he soon realized that he had lost his composure and quickly recovered himself.
“It’s quite tragic.” Wang Chen nodded.
This kind of immortality was equivalent to being in prison forever. Ordinary people indeed could not bear it.
“What price do 1 have to pay?” he asked again.
“No need. If you can really reach that step, it’s just a matter of convenience,” the conductor said.
After hesitating for a moment, Wang Chen said, “1 promise you.”
He didn’t think the conductor would lie to him about this.
“I’m Su Beihai. I’m happy to be your friend.” The conductor stood up with a big smile on his face and extended his hand to Wang Chen.
Wang Chen politely shook his hand.
[The Doomsday Contract has been signed. Violators will be killed.]
The System Wizard’s voice sounded.
Wang Chen’s heart sank, and his expression turned ugly.
“It’s just a small insurance. Unless you intend to violate our contract, it won’t affect you in any way,” Su Beihai said with a smile.
Wang Chen’s expression softened slightly as he asked in a deep voice, “1 want to know what is going on in the Doomsday World!”
“I don’t know.” Su Beihai shook his head.
Wang Chen’s face instantly darkened. This guy actually didn’t know the first question.
“Then, how can we escape from the Doomsday World?” he asked again.
“Ten Doomsday Worlds.” Su Beihai’s expression turned solemn. “As long as you survive ten Doomsday Worlds, the Descenders will have the chance to leave.”
“It doesn’t sound difficult.” Wang Chen’s eyes lit up. At his current speed, it wouldn’t be long before he had the chance to leave.
“Not all Doomsday Worlds are this easy,” Su Beihai said. “If you underestimate it too much, I’m afraid I’ll have to find a new partner! For example, Doomsday World 1453 is much more dangerous than this place.”
“Do you have any information about that world?” Wang Chen asked. It would be best if he could be prepared.
“Of course. I’ll give you some later.” Su Beihai nodded.
Then, Wang Chen asked Su Beihai a lot of questions, and many of the doubts in his heart were resolved.
Only then did he leave the conductor’s room in satisfaction and return to the independent luxury carriage that Su Beihai had specially prepared for him to rest in.
The luxury carriage was a completely independent world. The beach, the sun, the sea breeze, the blue sea…
After washing the dirt off his body in the ocean and enjoying a free meal, Wang Chen’s tense nerves finally relaxed completely.
Thinking back to the past few days, everything felt like a dream.
“However, in a Doomsday World, strength is the foundation of everything!”
Wang Chen took out the Rank 6 skill scroll.
After crushing the scroll, the System Wizard immediately chimed.
[Throne Angel’s Defense Level 1 (Rank 6). Consumes 1,000 Energy Points to summon a Level 30 Throne Angel to fight for you. Duration: 30 minutes. Note: You cannot summon two Throne Angels at once.]
“A summoning skill? Not bad!”
Wang Chen was delighted.
The angel must have pure white wings and a handsome face. Even if they did not have any combat power, in the crazy Doomsday World, it was not bad to just enjoy the aesthetics.
[Ding! Your Angel’s Defense has been raised to max Level! ]
[Throne Angel’s Defense Level 10 (Rank 6). Consumes 3,000 Energy Points to summon a Level 50 Throne Angel to fight for you. Lasts for 60 minutes. Note: You cannot summon two Throne Angels at once.]
“Level and duration increased. A summoned Level 50 creature should not be weak.”
Wang Chen’s heart stirred, and he impatiently summoned his Throne Angel.
As a huge hexagram lit up in the sky, dazzling golden light scattered from it, making it almost impossible for anyone to open their eyes.
A powerful holy aura was born from it.
The light slowly dissipated, and the throne within finally revealed its true appearance.
Wang Chen’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when he saw the face of the Throne Angel.
With a grayish-white body with almost perfect lines and holy eyes…lt was just a little too much!
The four rims of the chariot were burning with grayish-white flames. Each of the rims was filled with eyes, and in the center was a ball of pale flames.
“Is this a f*cking angel or a wheel with eyes?” Wang Chen couldn’t help but complain.
What he wanted to see was a beautiful golden-haired birdman, not something like this!
[Throne Angel]
[Level: 50]
[Basic Attributes: Strength (170), Stamina (160), Agility (121), Spirit (100), Charm (10), Luck (1)]
[Skill: Eye of Judgment. A pale holy light beam is shot out from all eyes, causing 150 damage to surrounding targets.]
“Forget it, the attributes are not bad. If he looks a little strange, so be it!” Wang Chen sighed..
