Car 14, upon reaching here, the platform no longer provides any props.
Everything relies on oneself.
Car 14 is the carriage of willpower. In this stage, everyone will endure extreme pain.
This pain is not just a mental suffering, or rather, not limited to it.
But a comprehensive pain from all aspects, one could say the level of pain is extraordinarily high.
In this stage, the carriage becomes extremely long, almost as if it stretches nearly a kilometer.
This length made Wen Xishu and others feel it was endlessly long... because each step was extremely difficult for them.
But Wen Xishu was well aware that this length might just be for the players to perceive.
"The time to reach the platform is set, under such load and pain, we can’t walk fast... so this length isn’t realistic. The purpose of this train is selection, not slaughter."
Wen Xishu had the Slaughter Tower panel, making him the fastest. Compared to others, Wen Xishu’s speed was unbelievable.
Yet the pain Wen Xishu endured, in terms of subjective feeling, was no less than anyone else’s.
"Goodness! How can Younger Brother Wen walk so fast? So hungry... so hungry..."
Zheng Zai began to feel hungry.
The pain for him would transform into hunger, so the effect of his sequence made him feel no pain, but he was frantically hungry.
At this moment, Wen Xishu, running ahead, appeared like a running chicken to Zheng Zai!
Zheng Zai no longer resisted this thought, allowing his desire to twist the figure of Brother ahead into that of a chicken.
"Brother, you smell so good!"
Zheng Zai started drooling and began sprinting, his speed second only to Wen Xishu.
Yue Yun and Nissen were both shocked. Nissen managed his pain with a song, using joy to offset the pain.
Yue Yun purely relied on his stubborn refusal to give up.
Ah Miao did the same, silently praying "God bless me".
But the three of them were indeed not fast... watching the crazily running Wen Xishu and the relentless Zheng Zai chasing behind...
"Motherfucker! Bro... Wen actually has such insane physical strength? He really took care of us, always held back!"
Yue Yun was also speechless.
How are people supposed to compete? He’s smarter than you, more gifted than you, physically stronger than you, luckier than you, and even works harder than you...
"Forget it, just do your best! Damn it, Wen Xishu, disrupting my resolve!"
Faced with Wen Xishu, Yue Yun could only think — I’m not aiming for first place anymore, I’ll go for second. In this era with Wen Xishu, being second isn’t shameful.
"Can’t lose to Nissen!"
So Yue Yun began to push himself.
Nissen’s body was already the most extraordinary among them, and seeing Yue Yun gather strength, he cheerfully said:
"Charge! Bro! Let’s both charge!"
Although the gap didn’t widen, seeing Nissen not even sweating, even while sprinting and hilariously singing, made Yue Yun want to curse.
What kind of freaks are these?
Ah Miao was undoubtedly the slowest in this stage. But she didn’t care, slowly edging towards the finish line step by step.
Before reaching the platform, Ah Miao made it to the finish line. At that moment, all the pain vanished.
Ah Miao burst into tears of joy:
"I almost... thought I couldn’t keep up with you."
Zheng Zai patted Ah Miao’s shoulder:
"Sis! You’re amazing, they are all elites from the Three Towers Academy, you kept up with everyone!"
Ah Miao also smiled cheerfully.
"Bro! Let’s head to the next car!"
No props provided on the platform still.
The fifteenth car, on the contrary, became extremely simple.
No one, including Wen Xishu, could figure out the evaluation content of the carriage.
Everyone walked carefully, but this carriage... turned out to have no issues, easily—
The group reached the door of car 16.
Except for one person...
Nissen tried to lift his legs, but felt as if his legs didn’t belong to him.
He wanted to move, but couldn’t make any move.
Yue Yun immediately turned back, intending to carry Nissen, but when he got close, he found...
Nissen had become incredibly heavy.
"What’s going on? Why is it just you?" Yue Yun was confused.
Wen Xishu was also puzzled.
Just a step away from car 16, the final carriage, and right before the end—
Nissen suddenly couldn’t move.
"Bro... don’t mind me, quickly go to the next car, I just can’t move in this carriage! But it seems there’s nothing else."
Nissen immediately put on a cheerful smile, appearing unconcerned.
But deep down, he clearly wanted to move forward with his companions.
"Ah Shu... what’s going on, why can’t Nissen move? Is there a difference between him and us?" Ah Miao’s question sparked Wen Xishu’s thoughts.
Wen Xishu immediately understood... this carriage is selecting something specific.
The Chosen Train, naturally making a selection.
And everyone has a certain characteristic, except Nissen, hence Nissen wasn’t chosen. Naturally couldn’t advance another step.
The selection content in this carriage is simple.
"Nissen... is different from us in bloodline. Or rather, different in lineage."
"The Chosen Train is probably a preliminary task of a level seven mission. Once completed, everyone will have a chance to participate in that mission in the future."
"And that mission must only be taken by Longxia People."
The others suddenly understood, and so did Nissen.
Though everyone is from the Bunker, at the core, many still deliberately distinguish certain things.
"Ha ha ha, then there’s no way, bro! Do your best! Get through the last car!"
"I’ll be waiting here for you!"
Nissen wanted to wave, but couldn’t even lift his hand, only managing a smile.
Wen Xishu grew increasingly fond of this little guy, not hesitating:
"Let’s go, completing the task is the greatest respect for our teammates."
The final carriage, after passing the last test, the game would end.
The second whirlpool of the Great Devouring would also be successfully dispelled, significantly slowing down the progress of the Great Devouring’s engulfment, benefiting the entire Bunker.
No longer hesitating, everyone entered the final car one by one.
After everyone left, Nissen’s smile faded, showing some grievance:
"Ah... fortunately, I just didn’t meet the standards, but everyone doesn’t dislike me."
Clearly, the fear challenge from not long ago, although he got through quickly, it indeed hurt him.
But more so because of that, Nissen cherished reality more:
"My friends, I wish you all the best!"

At the entrance of car 016. Yue Yun, Ah Miao, Zheng Zai, and Wen Xishu looked ahead.
This carriage was different from every preceding one, resembling more of a conference center.
In the lounge, there was a man in a suit and military cap, presumably the conductor.
"Welcome, everyone, to the final car, the last test of the Chosen Train." The man in the military cap smiled.
"Next, I will make the most important decision of your life together with you."
