The Wheel of Fate Rolls On

"A..."

The scream caught in her throat, and Lin Jiaxin had already disappeared from the room. Feng Xue looked at her hands and scratched her head awkwardly.

"Damn, I'm so used to it, it's become a conditioned reflex! Oh well, let's leave it at that for now."

Glancing at Lin Jiaxin, who looked completely bewildered at the school gate, Feng Xue hesitated for a moment before deciding not to release her immediately. Instead, she took out her phone, connected to the network of this world, and entered "K7 Train" into the search bar.

Although Feng Xue might know a little more than the completely clueless Lin Jiaxin, in reality, it was only a little.

Fortunately, this is indeed the "real" world, at least for the train that finally crashed into Cosmo Station under his savage manipulation. This is indeed a world that provides [knowledge], and Feng Xue, unsurprisingly, found a large number of entries related to the K7 Train.

But...

"This has really become Weird Tale?" Looking at the densely packed information about the K7 Train, Feng Xue's lips twitched slightly. Finally, she found the wiki encyclopedia of this world and managed to roughly sort out her thoughts.

First, this Weird Tale corresponds to a long-distance tourist train that ran from Tianlin City to Skomo station ten years ago, and that train suffered numerous accidents during its journey.

From the initial heavy snow blocking the roads and heating failures, to the subsequent robberies and terrorist attacks, and finally, just as the train was about to arrive, it collided with a tractor that cut in front of it, causing the train to derail. It can be said that the train has experienced every kind of predicament that a train can encounter.

After that, the official name of the train on this route was changed to train K0077. The specific reason is still unknown, but it is certain that after the train that had a major accident, K7 Train completely disappeared.

Secondly, there were a total of 52 survivors on the last train, all of whom were passengers. The crew, the Train Police, and the remaining passengers all perished. This number is exactly the same as the amount Feng Xue initially earned from her School Hell.

That's all for the part about reality, and there's no further information. However, when Feng Xue searched for "survivor of the K7 Train" using the keywords "ageless appearance" and "cannot die," she found phrases like "immortal appearance" and "cannot die."

"I see. According to the timeline of these forums, the earliest discussion about the K7 Train was actually about a disaster. After all, so many things happening on one train at the same time is indeed worth talking about. So the initial train Weird Tale should just be a Weird Tale surrounded by countless disasters."

"However, half a month later, a survivor, whose entire family had died in a car accident, attempted suicide by hanging. Although he was rescued early, he still suffered severe aftereffects from suffocation."

"In the period that followed, some survivors committed suicide, but none of them died. This may have directly led to the evolution of the already popular train Weird Tale, causing the survivors to become 'immortal' subsidiary Weird Tale (similar to the living members of Libra).

"Then three years later, someone discovered a survivor who looked almost exactly like the photo from three years ago, as if time had frozen. After that, there were 'Weird Tale' about immortality. Then, as Urban Legend spread, they eventually evolved into legends like 'escaping the Grim Reaper's conspiracy and gaining Undying Nature,' 'time and fate were frozen in the car accident,' and 'in fact, they died when the car accident happened, and there were no survivors at all.'"

"Well, there are a few survivors here who have come forward to say that they have been trapped in nightmares. Well, although it cannot be ruled out that they are just trying to make some money by taking advantage of the popularity, this matter should be true. After all, it is normal to be traumatized by such an event. However, with this behavior, nightmares have also become part of the Weird Tale."

"Later, there were film adaptations and horror game productions. To increase playability and visual effects, monsters were added, leading to various hostile monsters and supernatural events, which made the elements of this Weird Tale even more complex..."

Feng Xue's fingers slid continuously, and after sorting out the changes to the K7 Train Weird Tale, the essence of the Weird Tale he experienced was slowly revealed. However, as his gaze swept across the stories, his fingers paused slightly, stopping at the most recent Weird Tale.

It seems that due to the sudden rise of rule-based Weird Tale, some people have made rule-based adaptations of train Weird Tale. The content is exactly the same as the Riding Instructions they had seen before, but it also includes some small details that they had not even noticed.

But ultimately...

"This Weird Tale doesn't have much development value." Feng Xue shook her head with slight disappointment. She thought it would be a super Weird Tale similar to Infinite City, but in reality, it's not even as good as School Hell. However, the way it was formed is somewhat interesting.

In essence, this Weird Tale lacks intelligence; its Main Body lies in the fifty-two survivors. However, due to the inherent nature of the legend, these fifty-two survivors have been unable to control Weird Tale...

"No, perhaps things are different now."

Feng Xue pulled out the "School Hell" item, shrunk to the size of a business card holder, and observed Lin Jiaxin, who seemed to have realized something. Although the real Lin Jiaxin didn't have any Supernatural Tale Entry or Tag on her, Feng Xue could still sense the changed Supernatural Tale Fire within her based on the strange connection formed from her previous identity substitution.

Title: Survivor Beyond Fate

Tag: [Fate], [Helmsman], [Nightmare], [Train], [Break the Mold], [Survivor]

Synopsis: After countless cycles of nightmares, the survivor finally chose to confront his nightmares and break through the inner demons that had long plagued him. His stagnant destiny began to flow again, and all the suffering he had endured would not be in vain.

Power: [Break the Mold]

Companion Phantom: [K7 Train]

Feng Xue had no particular interest in the Companion Phantom that only existed in the Dream World, but Feng Xue was extremely envious of this [Break the Mold] power.

Although this thing is not a noble one-word power, its ability is very special. Simply put, it is "a special attack against fate".

Any manipulation based on cause and effect, destiny, or fortune will fail in the face of this power. If placed in the mysterious world, it would be the nemesis of the audience (of course, when it activates its mythical form, it can still punch you into two pancakes).

Fortunately, because Feng Xue broke through her fate by using Lin Jiaxin's identity, she was able to "temporarily borrow" this power. However, this was like turning a passive skill into an active one, meaning she couldn't be immune to it indefinitely. She could only actively "purify" it when she realized she had been affected.

"Overall, at least the test has been passed."

After thinking for a moment, Feng Xue still released Lin Jiaxin from the School Hell. It wasn't out of pity, but simply because he was afraid that this girl would break the cycle of the School Hell with such power.

This chapter wasn't originally planned, but many people said they didn't want to use their brains and wanted me to reconstruct this world, so I'll just explain the structure of this Weird Tale.

By the way, don't think of this train as just a vehicle, but rather as a dream about destiny.

The train's journey was like the relentless Wheel of Fate, while the survivors were trapped in the memory of the accident by their own psychological trauma and the gossip of bystanders.

This can be interpreted as "the person wants to get rid of the shadows of the past, but because the people around them keep bringing it up, they are unable to let go of the past and move forward."

Furthermore, due to the unique nature of dreams, no matter how much they wish to move forward, they can never reach their destination. Therefore, their fate remains in a cycle, unable to continue moving forward. (I don't know if you've ever had this kind of dream, wanting to go to a place but unable to get there no matter what you do.)
