Times pa.s.sed as they rode on the train.

In the era of civilization, travelers could take out their phones, computers, and entertainment devices to kill time on the long journey.

However, in the wasteland, a few hours felt like years without any electronic devices for entertainment.

Fortunately, only five people were in the carriage to Heaven’s Origin. Thus, it was not as crowded as the carriages in front of them.

After a brief awkwardness, the middle-aged woman and the solo pa.s.senger came over to pa.s.s the time by chatting after learning that Su Mo and Huang Xiaojuan were headed to Hope City.

!!

The ident.i.ties of the two were revealed after some small talk.

The middle-aged woman named Huang Qing was not originally a couple on earth with Gong Liang but formed a family together in the wasteland after joining Heaven’s Origin.

The two were rescued from foreign troops during Year 4 of the Doomsday Calendar.

The two had decent eloquence and received an ability rating of Rank C. Therefore, they were fortunate not to have to spend any exchange points after pa.s.sing the entrance examination to become part of the Heaven’s Origin family and residents under Precious Fish County.

Subsequently, after two years of acc.u.mulating points in the territory, the two worked hard to buy ident.i.ties as employees of the foreign commerce department in Year 6.

Their trip, this time to Green Fruit Territory, was mainly to examine the benefits and risks of the place.

As for the single pa.s.senger, Su Mo was surprised by his name—Chen Yongkang.

According to his words, he was related to Chen Shen, the current mayor of Hope City.

However, they were distant relatives and not very close.

Despite that, his ident.i.ty seemed a little suspicious. Although he claimed to be a security guard of Dragon Town in Heaven’s Origin and traveled out to search for his homeless relatives during his annual leave, he occasionally averted his eyes and brushed over details on certain aspects.

Su Mo could see that what he was telling them was not the complete truth, or he had a reason to conceal it from them.

“Youzong, after you get to Hope City, your future will be limitless, and you might even become a prominent figure in a year or two.

“I agree! Hope City’s welfare is incredible. I heard that even an ordinary resident gets a twenty-five-point monthly subsidy, which is enough to ensure a worry-free life.”

“No, no. How would they subsidize unconditionally? The condition is that if your wage is less than that amount, only then will you be eligible for the subsidy. Do you think they will give you money for sleeping and doing nothing?”

“Haha, it’s what everyone has been saying. We haven’t been there before, and we never dared to ask!”

As they got more familiar with each other, the topics they discussed became more carefree, and they even began to talk about more presumptuous stuff.

They talked about issues related to the territory’s welfare and some rumors they had heard from others.

As a large territory with a permanent population of more than 400,000 people, Su Mo listened attentively to these questions, secretly remembering them in his heart.

“By the way, have you guys heard of this before? It is said that when Hope City was still a village….Almighty Su was the one who gave it the name.”

“Oh, about that. I’ve heard of it before too. Some people even say that Almighty Su founded Heaven’s Origin, but he never came back because of an accident.”

Huang Qing and Chen Yongkang were more gossipy. When they mentioned the topic, w.a.n.g Zhuyu, who was standing in the back, could not help herself and sneaked into the carriage to join them.

“Yeah, I know an old resident of the territory. He’s been living in the territory since the beginning of the New World.

“He once told me that Almighty Su personally brought them into the territory eight years ago. Unfortunately, Almighty Su left the territory and never returned after a blizzard disaster.

“Moreover, the current territory lord, Su Chan, is Almighty Su’s sister!”

As a train attendant, w.a.n.g Zhuyu was much more informed than those in the territory. She said proudly as she watched the astonished expressions of Huang Qing, Gong Liang, Chen Yongkang, and Huang Xiaojuan.

Whether it was rumors or the truth, she felt good every time she could crush another person who had a higher ident.i.ty than her with information.

She swept across the four pa.s.senger’s faces with satisfaction. Unexpectedly, the pride in her heart was slightly diminished after she glanced at Su Mo’s face.

On his face, she could not see the slightest surprise at learning shocking information, nor did he show interest in details about Almighty Su.

Instead, she sensed an indescribable abnormality in him.

It felt as if…

“Mr. Su, could it be possible that you have more detailed information about Almighty Su?”

w.a.n.g Zhuyu’s voice sounded with a sweet smile. Immediately, everyone’s gaze fixated on Su Mo.

The story of Almighty Su had been pa.s.sed down in the wasteland for a long time and he became a milestone figure for humans.

Although it had been eight years since his disappearance, he remained a hot topic among people until now.

‘Could it be that Su Youzong really has news of Almighty Su?’

Everyone opened their eyes wide and waited eagerly for an answer after suddenly remembering that the two of them had the same last name.

Before Su Mo could say anything, the train stopped abruptly, and gunshots erupted in the carriage in front of them.

“Are there enemies?”

Everyone knew they were current in the wasteland and not on peaceful Earth.

As soon as the gunshots sounded, Chen Youkang rolled to the floor and hid under a chair, pulling out the pistol around his waist.

Huang Qing and Gong Liang were vigilant. They quickly rushed to a seat in the back row and pushed down the seats over them as simple protection.

Meanwhile, w.a.n.g Zhuyu showed no signs of fear.

After the gunshots broke out, she directly strode to the source of the sound. It was evident that she had received special training before.

“Youzong, should we hide?”

Huang Xiaojuan was a little overwhelmed since this was the first time she encountered such a situation. Fortunately, Oreo lying beside her remained unfaltering, which brought her a little sense of security.

“Sit down first. I’ll go take a look.”

“Remember to stay with Or…stay with Yuan Bao. Wherever she goes, you follow her!”

The sudden gunshots saved Su Mo from the interrogation.

After recognizing that the sound came from a potent revolver, Su Mo frowned, stood up, and followed w.a.n.g Zhuyu to the carriage where the gunshots came.

Humans and foreign races jointly protected the wasteland railways. Thus, robbing the trains was equivalent to declaring war against both races simultaneously.
