Snowfields, woodlands.

The chimneys of the locomotives spewed steam whiter than the clouds.

The Northland Express is heading north along the New York-Jungyer Railway, and the hot locomotive splits the cold wind.

On the express, in a private room in the No. 3 soft-seat car, three somewhat eclectic travelers sat quietly.

One was wearing a dark blue suit, with an oval mask under his black hair.

The mask is like a curved oval window, in which the tide rises and falls. Above the tide, a star emits a constant light, like the eyes of this mysterious person.

The Queen-level explorer mask "Sea of ​​Shimmer", the wearer Sean Dickinson is looking sideways at the snowy scenery outside the window.

The snowflakes as big as goose feathers seemed to fly backwards obliquely full of anger due to the speeding train.

"It's a beautiful thing to decorate Holy Ghost with a little snowflakes...

"However, if the snow keeps falling day and night, it will not be so beautiful."

Beside him, a bright crescent moon hangs above the mask, black and white piano keys are played on the elliptical mirror, and the mask of "Soloist under the Moon" is also facing out of the window.

Moonlight·1902 is not only admiring the flying snow, but also completely immersed in the white scenery in the distance.

The undulating mountains are covered with white snow, and the green pines seem to be covered with a thick white coat...

The whole scene is like the piano piece called "Garcia by the Lake",

Clean and pure white, leaving no room for filth.

Olivia Windchime, who was sitting next to Sean, was wearing a Queen-level mask called "Grey Swan".

The matte mask outlines the image of a gray swan with outstretched wings, and the wings extending from one side are like silver hair accessories, holding Olivia's brown hair, revealing her beautiful sideburns.

This mask representing an outstanding female dancer naturally comes from Sean's "hidden privilege".

At this moment, Ms. Swan is also looking out of the window.

However, she neither stared at Feixue nor admired the distant mountains...

Those eyes, which are much more precise than human pupils, inadvertently captured the wild animals hiding or running in the snow-capped mountains.

Hare, white wolf and deer.

It had been two days since they departed from Xinyue Central Railway Station, but the scenery outside the window still made their eyes linger.

The missing teammate Evan Burns, the mailing address left before, is located at the northern end of the northern New Zealand continent - Kibeke State, north of the city of Rongyer, a small town on the shore of Lake Mistani...

There is still one day before the Northland Express arrives at the destination of this trip, the city of Rongyer.

As the place where Ivan disappeared was getting closer and closer, Sean became inexplicably nervous.

Sean clearly remembered that before Ivan parted with them, he was already the "Eye of Annihilation" with thunder in his eyes.

Powerful Queen class.

"The power to make a explorer of this level disappear without a sound..."

The risk of King-level benchmarking cannot be ruled out.

Sean's nervousness was not just because he knew that this trip would never be an easy one, but more because he was worried about the condition of Evan Burns.

"What happened to him?"

Even before the accident, sending a series of distress signals through the bound explorer card would not allow Sean to discover his accident after the brooch self-destructed.

If it is too late to send a distress signal, there is only one possibility:

The process of Yiwen's distress was very sudden, and he had no time to send meaningful sentences—

And the Quest Cards often vibrate due to interference, so it is naturally impossible for Sean to associate too much with those meaningless vibrations...

Gu Yan "The worst situation is." Sean closed his eyes, "Ivan is dead."

This is exactly what Sean was worried about—a potential partner who disappeared quietly in the mystery...

That's why he sent the "Bloody Rose" brooch to a trusted companion.

Unexpectedly, something happened before the brooch arrived.

It's really ironic.

His increasingly deep thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Please come in." Before the visitor opened the door, Xiao En's psychic had already outlined his appearance.

The same is the Quest, but the knocker wears a Jack-level mask—the "famous" and somewhat dull "Panza".

There was a frantic purple light in the eyes of this "Panza"...

"Panza" is a relatively rare type of mask - "Possessed Panza".

He is an auxiliary explorer who is obsessed with mysterious knowledge and has considerable mystical attainments.

On the first day of boarding the train, Sean and his party got acquainted with this colleague who lived in the same compartment.

And out of admiration for the Queen class, and what seems to be a natural enthusiasm, he treats Sean and others like his old friends—

"Oh, everyone." Possessed Panza's voice was a bit funny, with a distinct northern accent, "There is space in the dining car, why don't we go over and have dinner together?"

The three got up and walked out of the compartment.

Pan Sha was not tall, only half a head taller than Olivia. When he was walking in front of Sean and Moonlight, he was still chattering about how he couldn't sleep in the car.

Sean and his party were in the third car, and the dining car was in the fifth car. After passing through a car, they came to the brightly lit, well-decorated dining car, which wafted the aroma of food.

"Ouch."

Turning around, the chattering Possessed Panza bumped into a man coming out of the dining car.

The man had a cigarette in his hand, but because of the sudden impact, Xiao En watched the cigarette fall to the ground.

Because of his strong soul, Sean could reach out his psychic substance and catch the lit cigarette, preventing it from falling to the ground and scorching the elegant carpet.

However, senior mysteries have a sense of propriety: Regardless of the clear provisions in the "Rules for Mysteries", those who are involved in mysteries under unnecessary circumstances cannot arbitrarily "appear in front of others"...

Once the people around see a cigarette floating back to the man's hand against the force of gravity, it will inevitably cause panic among many passengers.

Therefore, neither he nor Moonlight intervened, just watched the cigarette fall to the ground.

"Oh! Sorry!" Possessed Pansha hurriedly apologized.

The man bent down and picked up the cigarette.

It's a pity that the cigarette **** has already left a scar like a devil's eye on the goose-yellow ball...

Seeming to be a little afraid of the explorer, the man picked up the cigarette without saying anything, and walked quickly towards the carriage.

The little hiccups didn't attract much attention—the four Quests seemed well-mannered ~lightnovelpub.net~ which reassured those around them.

At times, Questers are like talismans against mystical threats, and many people are happy to see them for that reason.

Some people are even interested in those Queen-level masks that look more elegant and gorgeous at first glance, and cast awe and admiration.

Sean sat down indifferently under the eyes of those who were either amazed by his mask or admired by the senior explorers.

"I think today's grilled chicken steak and beans are good, but the beef is not so good—it looks like the frozen one..." Possessed Pansha was speaking—even the talkative Moonlight felt that the Jack-level colleague in front of him There are a lot of words.

That nervous feeling really seemed to be "possessed".

"Sir, how can I help you?" The train attendant, who learned from European colleagues and wore a small mustache, came over and asked politely in a language with a northern accent.
