The train named death is speeding forward, but the strange passengers still sit in their seats and remain silent.
The three of them, Sean, walked quickly towards the dining car at the rear of the train.
"So..." Moonlight was still thinking about everything that had just happened, "How did you know? This spiritual world originally belonged to Paxitrick, who was in charge of the North New York Railway Network?"
Unlike traditional gods, the demigods born in the modern era have lost their personal color, rarely appear, and are rarely mentioned by name.
They are more like symbols than the concept of "gods".
Sean said as he walked: "The modern gods have no specific followers or sects, and they no longer appear.
"For example, with Pax Trike, every choice people make for long-distance travel, every ticket purchased, and every increase in the railway company's stock replaces traditional beliefs and nourishes this rail guardian.
"The convenience of the modern era has given them the space and soil to exist. They do not need to preach or consolidate their beliefs. As long as someone takes the train, he is respected and worshiped...
“The same goes for other modern gods.
"Such favorable conditions also make the modern gods seem unwilling to make progress. It seems that they no longer have the ambition of the ancient gods."
"Their existence has been completely downplayed," Sean looked back at his teammates, "Ordinary people in this world don't know about their existence, and even the explorers rarely interact with them.
"However, what must never be forgotten is," Sean raised his finger, "even if they are forgotten and rarely show up, they still have godhood."
"With godhead, there is spiritual world and divine power."
After having the faith of Ms. Hershey, Sean understood a lot: "Even if the gods themselves are no longer interested in using their spiritual world, it does not prevent someone from coveting their abilities and turning them into their own weapons."
After the gods departed, their names were gradually forgotten by people.
However, Keen's return in the 15th century resulted in many gods being forced to stay.
After the dawn of rationality bloomed, they were actually out of tune with this modern era.
But for some inexplicable reason, he stayed in the human world.
Just like the rising sun is blocked by clouds, and the shadow remains on the earth.
Wandering gods, demigods, modern gods, these marginalized gods can only coexist with this era in an inappropriate way.
They are not as powerful as the gods, nor do they have the crazy ambitions of the old masters.
In short, their not very powerful characteristics have made them the targets of some people despite their godhood.
"North New York Traveler" Patrick is somewhat similar to "Lord of Midnight Paradise" Peter Pan.
The difference is that Peter Pan retains his independent thinking ability when providing services to those people.
Paxitrik, on the other hand, was directly occupied by the bird in the dove's nest, completely losing consciousness, and his soul was used by others.
"And the person who sealed Paxitrik and transformed his power across the railway tracks and the spirit of the train into a miniature hell..."
Sean thought of the black sun on the door.
"He is the owner of that black sun."
Who is that?
The black sun also symbolizes a secret sect?
Sean narrowed his eyes: someone who can treat gods as his playthings is definitely an extremely troublesome opponent.
Sean and the three of them have returned to the dining car where they started, and the entire train is slowly fading away.
Like a mountain peak, the gray giant with his face covered with a shroud cast his indescribable gaze towards this place.
The being quickly calculated the sins and drudgery of the "passengers" and "food" on the train and decided where to go...
The poor souls that have been imprisoned here have been sublimated and are drifting away little by little.
In the dining car, Sean continued to explain to Moonlight:
"To be able to collect all kinds of tragedies along the entire North New York railway network and build such a spiritual world, only Paxitrek has such power.
"But this spirit has completely lost its mind and fallen into a state of madness and distortion - not like the behavior of a demigod.
"Combined with this contradiction, my guess is that someone has contaminated or imprisoned Paxitrik."
“In short, this situation is quite lucky.
"Pathrik is simply asleep, not tainted.
"With his cooperation, we can purify this place so easily."
Otherwise, Sean and his party will have to face an enemy like Peter Pan again.
This train named "Death" that shuttled through the depths of the world began to shake violently. The last scene that Sean and the three saw before their eyes was that the carriage became completely transparent, and those souls finally broke free from their imprisonment and transformed into For the light spot, go upstream towards the spiritual ring.
Looking at James who turned into light in front of him, Sean bowed again.
In a flash of light, they were back on the Northland Express.
The train was still riding quietly in the wind and snow.
Soft lights, calm air. Even the howling of the north wind becomes lovely.
After returning from the depths of madness, Moonlight realized the beauty of the eternal world.
It's like a cave for people to hide in a blizzard.
"So, people would rather live in illusions than know the truth." Yueguang thought with some sadness.
Seeing the surprised eyes of those living people now, Yueguang felt that they were both lucky and pitiful.
With the conductor and the conductor in tow, Enchanted Panza practically burst into the dining car.
"You're back!
"How's it going? What happened?"
Sean and the other two exchanged looks calmly, and Shimmer Sea slowly spoke: "It's a pity that the missing people all suffered misfortune.
"We just went to a certain spiritual world in the form of a train. In that spiritual world, there are many man-eating monsters.
"The monsters killed them all."
Sean used ectoplasm to bring something back: relics he brought out of the dining car covered in flesh and blood.
A pearl necklace stained with blood, a dirty leather bag, a bloody top hat, etc...
Sean directly told Pan Sha about these situations.
However, the flight attendant standing nearby also had the right to know the facts, so he told it without any scruples.
The truth of the matter obviously had a shock to these people.
Pansha's reaction was okay, he just didn't speak for a while.
The train conductor and conductor Jerry both had pale faces. Looking at the relics, the young man seemed about to vomit.
The possessed Pansha waited for a long time before saying: "Is there a spirit world? There is a spirit world on the railway..."
He could feel that Sean and the others carried a sulfur smell unique to the depths of the world.
A spirit that can penetrate deep into the world and exist on the orbit...
His reserve of mysterious knowledge allowed him to roughly guess what the enemy was: a fallen wandering god.
It is most likely related to "Northern New Zealand Traveler" Paxitrik.
It is not an existence that ordinary explorers can face.
"...it seems like an enemy we can't deal with.
"I didn't expect that you actually 'won' the prize." Pansha shook his head, "But since it's you, it's definitely no problem to escape."
He sighed.
Moonlight looked at Pan Sha strangely and shook her head: "No, this is not a lottery win."
He turned to look at Sean, as if he felt that the other person's words were a little confusing.
Then, Moonlight continued to explain to Pansha: "We didn't escape - we purified the train."
After hearing what Yueguang said, Pansha was stunned for a few seconds...
Then, his eyes opened wider and wider.
Clean, purified? !
Purify such a spiritual world? !
His eyes looked like he was seeing something mysterious and out of control happening in front of him.
