A gray rain with heavy radiation fell from the sky.
The chaos in Phoenix City has still not been resolved, and it has been temporarily divided into three major forces and dozens of small forces that survive in the cracks.
This city that once represented the hope of mankind is now as gray as the world, without its brilliance.
In order to maintain the searchlight's light that rejects all energy and darkness, the power plant in Phoenix City is tightly controlled by the Ten Demon Sect, and 90% of the current is supplied to the lighthouse.
The remaining 10% of electrical energy barely lit up part of the core area from the sixth floor underground.
Leo took the ferry ticket, walked through the chaotic downtown area, and then got on the rail car heading to the pier.
There are three railway tracks in Phoenix. Of course... they are not very far apart and are mostly used for internal transportation.
Only one of them leads to the dock nearly a hundred kilometers away.
There will be one ship bound for the New World every two weeks.
Although huge changes have occurred in Phoenix.
But the ship can still sail as usual.
In the storm, the small train, which was like an iron can, made a long roar, and the monster bones with a lot of impurities were thrown into the fire to continuously supply energy to the train.
The highly corrosive gray rain corroded the train's surface and created a large number of potholes.
Some of the holes that were corroded and leaking air were covered with steel plates by the train management staff, waiting for repairs after arriving at the station.
The trains leaving the city sometimes run every three days, sometimes every five days, and the departure times of the ships overlap 100%.
People often choose to travel when gray rain falls. Although it will corrode the outer shell of the train, it avoids the beast tide and increases safety.
About three hours later, the train stopped at a pier that was neither prosperous nor wide.
A large number of monster corpses were mixed with cement, and the cemented ground spread directly from the platform to the seaside.
The terrifying aura seeped out from the ground all the time.
The ferocious minions of those monsters seem to be freed at any time and give people a hard blow.
Although it is a bit scary, only in this way can this dock be able to maintain its integrity without being destroyed by the tide of beasts.
About two more hours passed.
The raindrops spreading in the sky began to become sparse, and the people hiding in the huge stone pavilion, waiting for the boat, began to look worried.
At this moment, in the distance... on the undulating black sea, a deep sound of animal sounds came.
Two huge whales, like giant whales covered in bone armor, pulled a strange-looking steamboat to the shore.
These are two young Leviathans.
They have the instinct to find their 'ancestors'.
So when the largest Leviathan is wandering in the sea carrying the New World, the only way a ship can guarantee to reach the New World is to be guided by the young Leviathan.
In order to tame the Leviathan beast, the monks worked hard.
Fortunately, the people from the Beast Control Sect have also entered the wasteland world, and they are very good at training animals.
Although in reality, most of the corresponding methods are not available. But they have relevant experience and have successfully trained a group of young Leviathan...
Of course, the current headquarters of the Beast Control Sect is mainly in the New World.
The ship business also started after interacting with the Ten Demon Sect.
After checking the ticket, Leo boarded the ship.
The small cabin and bad air made Leo feel even worse.
At this time, Leo saw a man with a thin face and a gloomy expression.
He seemed to be injured, huddled alone in the corner, breathing heavily.
Leo walked over carrying the case where he kept his guitar.
Then he sat next to the man.
"You don't mind if I sit down!" When Leo spoke, he had already sat down.
The man moved his body.
The sloppy stubble and the greasy hair that had not been taken care of for a long time were sticky and sticky, and the whole body exuded a foul smell.
"You are also going to the New World? Do you have friends there?" Leo took out a piece of chewing gum with a strong flavor.
This thing is also a luxury item in Phoenix City. Although it comes from a cheap small workshop... one piece is worth ten bone coins.
Maybe it should be more expensive now.
Leo handed the gum to the man.
The man took it easily.
Then he threw it into his mouth without looking at it, and then chewed it numbly.
"You don't look like a person who escapes reality. Why did you get on this ship?" Leo asked the man.
The man remained silent.
"Okay! Actually, I have met you and know who you are. I came here on purpose to strike up a conversation." Leo spread his hands and confessed.
At this time, Leo's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning.
"If I yell now, maybe I can get a lot of money, or something else. But you see... I didn't do it, no matter what my purpose is, at least now... ·I have no ill intentions towards you." Leo continued.
The man finally raised his head. There were not many wrinkles on his face, but it gave the impression that he was already very old.
His eyes should have been sparkling once, but now... they looked dim.
There were some not-so-good feelings wandering around him... Of course, ordinary people couldn't notice it at all.
Perhaps only Leo was aware of it.
"Choose to leave a place not because you are reluctant to leave it, or because you feel wonderful about it. It should be because you have a greater pursuit, or because you hate it in your bones."
"I hate Phoenix City... so I want to go to the New World. What about you? Dear... Sir!" Leo also peeled off a piece of chewing gum for himself, and the pungent smell made him couldn't help but chew it a few times. He seemed to have some allergies, but it wasn't serious.
The man finally spoke, his voice hoarse.
"Why do you hate it? Maybe it's bad now, but it used to be good...!" the man said.
Leo shook his head and said: "No...no! It was bad once, but now it is good...at least better than before."
The man looked at Leo intently, as if waiting for his explanation.
But Leo didn't give this explanation. Instead, he took out a wine bottle from his arms.
He was quite well prepared, look... he had gum and wine.
Except that he didn't prepare food for the road, he seemed to be well prepared, and it seemed that he might have cigarettes.
"Why do you want to go to the New World?" The man did not ask the question he wanted to ask, or maybe he had already thought of the answer, but he just didn't want to face it.
Leo said: "I once thought that there was someone I could rely on, so I wanted to ask him what he was going to do. But after arriving in Phoenix, I realized that I was wrong. He was not ready at all. He was just doing it, but I didn’t think about it at all, he has all the noble qualities, but this is exactly the reason why I don’t go to see him, he is not a good leader and ruler, never has been.”
"So I'm going to the New World to find new hope. The legendary...Holy Son!"
The big ship jolted, as if a giant beast was making trouble in the sea.
The shouts of the monks of the Beast Control Sect came from the deck.
The jolting stopped after a while.
The ship continued sailing.
