Doomsday Wonderland - Chapter 198

Chapter 198: Who Would Have Known That Lin Sanjiu Was That Famo

Twelve Worlds Centrum was a consortium of twelve gigantic fortified worlds which had been chosen, built and modified over generations of posthumans . Nobody knew if these twelve worlds were geographically and dimensionally close to each other . In fact, there isn't any real alliance between them . In the early days, some of the large worlds didn't even know of each other's existence .

Due to their natural resources and level of development and modifications, they were gradually grouped together and named Twelve Worlds Centrum . Even though this wasn't Lin Sanjiu's first meeting with a resident from the Twelve World Centrum, she was very curious and had many questions . Unfortunately, it was difficult to ask them these questions now .

Thankfully, Rena was very proud of her hometown . Without asking much, Rena chirped non-stop about her world like a little bird, "Red Nautilus isn't the largest world among the Twelve World Centrum, but it is at least in the middle in terms of geographical area . In the beginning, the ecosystem of this world was invaded by some extraterrestrial organism called 'red nautilus' . It caused a mass extinction of animals and other organisms . Naturally, humans couldn't survive, but now . . . Hey, why are you hitting me?"

"You talk too much," Reno glared, "who wants to hear your history lesson?"

Lin Sanjiu quickly spelled the world, "me" .

Unexpectedly, Rena narrowed her eyes and giggled, showing her a 'serves-you-right' expression and instead stopped her narration . Once again, Lin Sanjiu felt the frustration brought by the [Did you check your almanac before leaving your house today?] curse .

"Let's get back to the main topic, how did you become this?" Reno still had his mind on the issue . "We have been here in this world for a couple of months for our training . We haven't seen any exceptions . . . If a person is totally corroded by black matter, or somehow killed by the duoluozhongs here, there are only two outcomes: that person either dies or becomes a ghost . After becoming a duoluozhong, that person would not know anything except to deceive, kill and threaten . But, this is the first time I've seen someone in your form . . . "

The brain nodded a few times in midair, but the siblings didn't know what it was trying to express .

This also stirred Rena's curiosity . She approached Lin Sanjiu, acting as if she wanted to look out of the window, and crept to the back of the brain . Rena stretched out her finger trying to touch the brain . However, Lin Sanjiu could sense the area around her like it was part of her current 'body', so when Rena turned around, Lin Sanjiu already floated upward avoid her finger .

"Are you a guy?" Rena stared, "Why don't you let me touch you?"

Lin Sanjiu didn't know how to reply . After thinking for a second, she spelled out what she wanted to say honestly, "Female . No . " Meaning, even though she was a female, you shouldn't go about touching people without their consent .

Rena fully understood what she meant and sneered . She went back to her seat while her brother laughed . Lin Sanjiu floated closer to Reno, who seemed easier to deal with and spelled: "Talk about Kisaragi . "

"Do you mean . . . you want me to tell you more about Kisaragi Station?" Reno rubbed his smooth chin, confirming . The brain nodded as expected, and he gave an expression of deep thought, "Well . . . Being in this world seem effortless to us because we already gathered information about it beforehand . We specifically prepared ourselves before coming here, so you asked the right person .  Huh? Why the question mark? Of course, we got information from people who had been to this world! In any case, you have to be very careful when you're in a B-level world! You shouldn't . . . Even though I don't know what happened to you, but I guess it can't be anything good . "

When Lin Sanjiu heard the words 'B-level world', she was shocked . But, this was immediately replaced by frustration again .

"I guess you already know about the corrosive nature of black matter here . But that is a small problem . Even though most posthumans don't develop the 'Black Matter Resistance' ability, you'll be fine as long as you don't eat or drink anything from this world . Considering our body constitutions, it isn't hard to survive 14 months . "

"I guess the duoluozhongs here are the hardest things to guard against . "

Rena seemed to agree with her brother wholly as she nodded her head .

"We have been to quite a few places, but we haven't been to a world where there are so many variations of duoluozhongs . . . Other than the duoluozhongs on this train, who wait for people to fall into their trap, there are others who would deceive you . They will trick you believe that they would provide you protection from the other duoluozhongs . . . "

Lin Sanjiu immediately thought of the students and teacher from Mausoleum Elementary . In retrospect, they seemed to be warning her not to stay on the train . Their warning was right, but according to Reno, if she did alight at that stop, nothing good would have happened to her in the end .

" . . . and there are also duoluozhongs who disguise themselves as normal humans . . . "

Douglas' face appeared in Lin Sanjiu's mind .

"There are those which would possess human-like items or things that are related to humans, so it is easy to overlook them . "

The old cloth shoes, cardboard standee, the Teru Teru Bozu and others . . .

"Then, there are all sorts of supernatural beings . They would randomly follow you or appear like in one of the stories . . . "

Lin Sanjiu thought of the tall men in the forest .

Thinking back, Lin Sanjiu realized that the various types of duoluozhongs she encountered in a single day could fill up an encyclopedia about this world .

"Even though we prepared ourselves well before coming here, we suffered a lot before this . That's why it looks effortless for us," Reno added the last sentence probably to comfort Lin Sanjiu .

"Says who? Bro, weren't you scared away by the Kitty Provincial Hospital?" Rena was quick to ridicule her brother . Reno jumped up and retorted, "That's because I'm afraid of cats! Not duoluozhongs!" Once again, the siblings started their meaningless bickering .

Lin Sanjiu smiled bitterly in her mind . Even without explanations, she knew that the siblings were different from people like her, who was a survivor from a new apocalyptic world . They were born in a world where the apocalyptic worlds were already an integral part of life and were educated to survive these situations . Naturally, the siblings had an easier time adapting mentally and physically .

"So, the Twelve World Centrum is really such an ideal place? " Just when Lin Sanjiu was engrossed by her own thoughts, Reno stopped bickering as if he suddenly remembered something . He turned to Lin Sanjiu and asked, "Hey, what's your name?"

"Lin Sanj-" Lin Sanjiu spelled out these alphabets when she remembered another person from the Twelve Worlds Centrum, Puppeteer . She froze .

Much to her surprise, the siblings exchanged glances before scruntizing her . All of a sudden, they shouted in unison, "Are you Lin Sanjiu?!"
