I'm bombarding the Supernatural World with my firearms

Chapter 174: Wilderness Comet



```

This train consisted of eight carriages.

From the locomotive to the last carriage, it was a deep blue that emitted a glow, with black spots as embellishments, making it resemble the Milky Way overhead, extremely resplendent.

"Is this heading towards us?"

Chen Miao furrowed his brow and asked. Although the train looked magnificent, at that moment, he would have preferred to go back to sleep. Besides, the train didn't seem to be coming for them, as it was getting farther and farther away.

"No."

Zhou Shen shook his head. "This is a fixed event designated as number 217, named Wilderness Comet. It's a harmless fixed event, and many have witnessed it."

"Every time night falls, this train known as the Wilderness Comet will wander randomly through the wilderness. If it stops in front of you, all you need to do is pay the fare, and the train will take you anywhere."

"The destination is completely random."

"In most cases, there's no danger, unless it's a desolate area with no signal. Generally, it's safe. If you encounter this thing while fleeing for your life in the wilderness, then you've truly hit the jackpot. You can be whisked away thousands of miles in an instant."

"How much is the ticket?"

"There's no set amount. You can pay as much as you want. There are no rules governing this. So far, there's been no difference observed between paying a lot and just a little. Even if you pay a lot for the ticket, the destination is still selected randomly, and there are no extra services."

"Got it."

Chen Miao nodded, finding the explanation somewhat complex, but in essence, this train was like a random teleportation array roaming the wilderness. If you happened to step aboard, you could be randomly transported to any corner of the Federation.

Yes, that was it.

Being a special event, and having persisted for a long time in the Federation's wastelands, it eventually became a fixed event.

"That doesn't seem right, does it?"

Standing aside, Hungry Monkey expressed doubt. "I thought the ranking of fixed events was based on their level of danger. Why is Wilderness Comet ranked at 217 when Hell Bus at 128 poses much more of a challenge?"

"Is there any danger with this fixed event?"

"Yes."

Zhou Shen nodded with a complex expression and continued, "Though the level of danger is significantly lower compared to other fixed events, it still exists. After all, the destination it transports to is completely unknown. And because the world underwent Supernaturalization, many disasters occurred, creating a lot of uninhabited regions."

"If you are transported to one of these uninhabited regions without any signal, it's almost impossible to make it back alive."

"And once the train stops in front of you, whether you're fleeing or not, you must board; otherwise, you will pay a price beyond imagination. This means there is a significant chance you'll be dropped off in a desolate, uninhabited area."

"That's no different from death."

Chen Miao looked towards the Wilderness Comet train, whose tail lights were gradually vanishing. "Even if gadgets like wristwatches have no signal, with channels like power network channels available, is it really possible to be out of contact?"

"It is possible to establish contact, but with no signal, you don't know your exact coordinates. Uninhabited regions are often wilderness-like with nothing around to use for reference. Even if you can contact someone, you can't disclose your exact coordinates to the outside world, making it difficult to expect support."

"The Federation has too many uninhabited regions. Unless a large amount of manpower is expended to search each one for this person, they surely won't be found."

"Of course—"

Zhou Shen paused, then continued, "The odds of being transported to an uninhabited area aren't high, but where you end up after disembarking is completely out of control. You might even step off the train and find yourself in some girl's bathroom, then get arrested following a call to the police."

"I've dealt with such cases when I was the Deputy Director of the Law Enforcement Bureau."

"We could understand it and truly believed that the intruder didn't mean to do it, but the person who called the police didn't think so. These cases require constant communication to soothe both parties involved. It's a tiresome job since the person who called the police also feels wronged, having been seen without doing anything wrong."

"With a total of 500 fixed events across the whole Federation, a ranking of 217 for the Wilderness Comet is pretty high."

By then, the train emitting the deep blue light had disappeared from their view, as if it had never appeared. It was uncertain where it would stop next or who would board it.

Zhou Shen fell silent, feeling the wound on his chest that would never heal, start to ache faintly again.

He had once been caught up in a fixed event numbered 389, named Wilderness Train. It sounded somewhat similar to Wilderness Comet, and that event had left him with a profound psychological scar.

He had sustained this particular injury during that event.

Surviving that event was enough to satisfy him.

That fixed event was also a wandering train in the wilderness; it was just crimson-colored and the event officially started after picking up 108 passengers. The rules were simple; when only 10 people remained in the carriage, those left could disembark. Otherwise, they would stay on the train indefinitely.

He made it out alive.

It was a difficult process.

To be precise, he had crawled off that crimson train alive.

He didn't want to fight. They were all innocent people and at that time, he couldn't bring himself to kill innocents just to stay alive. But when these people also went mad and started attacking him with knives,

his sanity began to be clouded by the stench of blood.

Since then, he's had a particular dislike for the lower classes.

They never comprehend how dangerous the world truly is, never realizing the peace they enjoy is bought with the blood of many.

Of course, that's only part of the reason. Find exclusive stories on empire

With the brief appearance of the Wilderness Comet,

the convoy started on the road home again.

The lights inside the truck were dim, and the drowsy atmosphere began to spread once more. Everyone's heads drooped as they dozed off. After an unknown period, the truck stopped again.

When they peeked out of the truck once more,

they had arrived at Eternal Cemetery.

They were home.

"You've worked hard,"

the Mayor of Fengtian City said as he stepped down from the vehicle, approaching Chen Miao and smiling. "Thanks to you, otherwise the Sea of Zombies fixed event wouldn't have been settled so easily."

"Although I don't know exactly what you did, I saw you plunge into the Sea of Zombies, and not long after, the Sea of Zombies started to lose its ability to continuously generate zombies, becoming a rootless body of water. The rest was easy."

"On behalf of Broken Pot City government, and the tens of millions of residents, I thank you."
