Soon, the two reached the vestibule between the sleeper car and the hard-seat car. Just as they were about to step into the hard-seat car, Fangsheng suddenly stopped. Gazing into the pitch-black hard-seat car before him, he drew his Knight Sword without hesitation and made a hand gesture to Armand behind him, signaling for caution.
This carriage was deeply abnormal. Normally, the steam train would be illuminated by dim lighting, but right now, it was swallowed by absolute darkness. At the same time, Fangsheng caught the heavy scent of blood thick in the air, yet strangely, this pungent odor had failed to draw the attention of the passengers or the conductor in the sleeper car.
Therefore, Fangsheng warned Armand to mentally prepare himself. Understanding Fangsheng's intent, Armand braced himself for combat. However, due to the confined space, he could not swing his weapon effectively, while the Blood Qi dagger Fangsheng had conjured glowed conspicuously in the dark. Consequently, Fangsheng temporarily decided against handing his Blood Qi weapon to Armand, wishing to avoid exposing their position before a conflict erupted.
