Steampunk Era: Mad Abield

"It should be right," Malin nodded, "Our train arrived in this city, and many people on the train had fevers... Oh damn, there were three children in my compartment." As soon as Malin mentioned this, the three of them hurried onto the train compartment, but found that the three children showed no signs of fever. In the end, Malin controlled them and had several senior Apprentices watch over them.

"Why haven’t they been possessed and infected... I’m thinking maybe it’s still the incubation period. The tomb was dug up a month ago, and the young man said it started four days ago."

Seated at the table, Mentor Meckel wrote on a piece of paper.

Malin sat opposite him, "Not necessarily four days ago, the young man said in the past two days, our two trains were the only ones to stop here, which means, it’s very likely that the insectoid Evil God possesses a capability similar to spatial locking. The time they are in could be different from what we think, and this Evil God chose us because there are many children on the train, suitable as its food."

"If that’s the case, why haven’t the Insectoids attacked us yet?" Mentor Sayer sat by the window, looking at the distant city: "It seems like a city that has fallen asleep."

"...What time is it now?"

Malin suddenly thought of a question, fumbling to find his pocket watch, but realized he had forgotten to wear it. Fortunately, Mentor Meckel took out his watch: "10:12 A.M."

"These bugs didn’t make a move when we arrived at the station gate, not until we woke them up by opening the door. They fear fire, they fear loud sounds, which means... they’re nocturnal! They don’t move during the day! There might still be survivors in the city! We must race against time! Both of you!" After speaking, Malin looked at the two mentors.
