紅土荒涼景色，無邊無際，看似不見盡頭。不論是對安坐車廂裡的旅人、還是對彷徨於紅土大地孤身履行使命的少女來說，所見亦是一片了無生機之景，別無二致。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdCFUtd4Cb

看似平平無奇的特別班次穿梭在連接兩座淨土的透明屏障管道裡，不斷往遙遠他方的聖火城推進。車廂內，烏普西朗早就禁不住悶意，竄到前方空空如也的座位上，兩手按壓窗沿飽覽車外前所未見之境，亦不忘聯想起在紅土中英勇奮戰的紅髮身影，想像他一手揮舞刺刀把怪物斬成兩半，然後回頭以另一手扣下手槍扳機，讓子彈精確擊落正從身後突襲的猙獰猛獸。想到這裡，稚嫩臉蛋頓時咧嘴笑得一臉津津樂道。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJLid1S1G2

而妲羽仍然挨坐在窗邊，拿起魔匣目不轉睛地看著屏幕裡的對話框，嘗試以文字把將缺席年度大會一事告訴天文學會會長修伯特：469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sKCpOE1g0
469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh88aTUQFUf

待對方答允之後，妲羽便關上對話畫面，屏幕換上空白的備忘頁，臉蛋覆蓋於帽簷之下靜靜陷入沉思。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYksrpaUvA1

在車內吃過精緻而豐盛的午餐後，眾人又繼續在長旅中把握時間為各自工作充分準備。唯獨未曉世面的烏普西朗側捧腹坐臥在前排座位上，早就看膩窗外不變的荒涼景致，便想著該如何打發時間。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpCSr6Y1cS

好奇之下，他走到後方座位，見妲羽低頭呆望魔匣裡幾段文字，桌上仍留著半份肉扒，便跳到座位上，一手扯住紺藍帽尖引起她注意：469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluoopgMlMo

469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQATwF1pMxp
「現在不行！別騷擾妲羽思考！」妲羽邊整理被扯歪的帽子邊狠聲拒絕，然後又再度埋頭望向屏幕陷入沉思，再沒理睬烏普西朗。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPSEBt6BPu

469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmBqZkjwys
「嘖嘖……好悶啊，就我一個沒事幹嗎？」被拒絕的烏普西朗一臉納悶，漫無目的地在走廊徘徊，盤旋於走廊上每一根扶手，其後便挨到通往前一車卡、上方燈箱以紅光顯出「綵排進行中」幾個大字的門板前，隨即聽到門後迴盪著法依與佳依別具神韻的歌聲。含蓄與奔放的兩把聲線交織，時而此起彼落，時而同聲相應，歌喉之美妙瞬間吸引他駐步偷聽，卻又不願上前打擾。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6nVR7dXWM
469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKx6FTq7NVA
469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSj0FRGh5X
沒一會兒，稍顯厭倦的烏普西朗又回到座位上，探頭一望，窗外依然是一片紅土景象，唯獨太陽漸漸收起刺眼強光，徐徐降至地平線一端。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoemFxaOu8

在浩瀚荒涼之境裡，幾乎只有高掛天上的烈日能夠指示時間流動。隨著陽光逐漸褪去，潛伏地底的巨影蠢蠢欲動，往久違的獵物推進。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGrgydjtSy

無形巨物迅速往視界遠方透明管道裡前行的白銀長蛇奔去，其體內潛藏力量之大，即使身處受命運神祝福的透明屏障裡，亦難逃受它干擾的局面。頃刻間，車廂燈光悉數熄滅，空氣流動亦停頓下來。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolUjQ9RGtX

「哇哇！發生什麼事？怎麼突然停電了？！」列車因頓失驅動力而剎停，捲起一發離心力差點把妲羽按倒地上。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZ04oUpeWw
469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1XMFBjuXG
469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLD5OgHFG8i
「那是什麼來的？！」從地面冒出的獸臉映在窗邊，頓時嚇得烏普西朗兩腿顫震著躍至後方走廊。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROWsqrZCvI

驚慌中，前車卡的歌聲亦隨之止住，雙生姊妹匆匆移步到妲羽跟烏普西朗身邊，觀察窗外形成巨獸姿態的濃密黑霧，不敢輕舉妄動。與此同事，列車的機組人員一臉焦急趕到法伊及佳伊身邊，喘著氣把列車狀況如是報告：469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfMMHbICYy
469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGOwFcXBX7

469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwG4Rf82WKr
「這就是潛伏於穢土裡的怪物嗎？隔著屏障都感覺到那腐敗的氣息，真噁心……」法依伸出手，露出手掌上光準備施法，又跟身邊拿著長方卡牌冷靜解讀牌意的佳依說道：「佳依，我們合力教訓它一下如何？」469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJfB9msmyf

佳依語一剛落，窗外旋即冒起一道強光，挨到窗邊一看，不約而同看到一個留有青色長髮的女性身影從巨影身後躍出，手持比她高上好幾倍的光槍從上揮向龐然巨軀。光芒切過黑霧，在其背部侵蝕出一個直長缺口；巨獸剛好轉身往後，穩固著地的少女又乘勢舉起光槍對它作出挑釁。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmOLH9Oz9v

「那……那是？！埃美姐？！」少女熟悉的輪廓清晰地從龐然巨體背部的缺口映進深藍色兩瞳中，驚訝間妲羽思緒便被想投到她懷裡的衝動所支配，急促步伐衝到門前，猛力嘗試拉開車門以走出車廂。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTB8GWexQE

「妳想幹什麼？太危險了！」見狀，烏普西朗正前去阻止妲羽，才剛抓住她的肩膀，她整個身體便突然癱軟下來，後仰壓向烏普西朗。兩人雙雙跌坐地上，烏普西朗轉頭一看，只見佳依操控著手上卡片，薄薄紙塊裡洩漏著魔力餘暉，無意間亦令看到紙牌的他稍露疲態，坐在妲羽旁邊打起呵欠。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXbq6xgfis

待佳依與法依合力把酣睡的妲羽抬到長凳，便繼續觀察著外面形勢。窗外巨物正伸出利爪撲向後方，而舉槍迎戰的少女埃美克戎亦不甘示弱，爪擊即將碰及身體一刻，她一躍跳到巨物實體化的黑色臂彎上，兩手緊握閃耀金黃色光輝的槍柄用力往下揮砍，俐落一刀切斷以黑霧集結成的臂膀，在光輝中粉碎並消失於眼前。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhp4fqfj6Kx

然而，身處下風的巨獸不留她一刻喘息機會，剩餘一臂張起爪牙迅速抓起渺小身軀，把她舉到半空，拋進它滿佈尖牙的嘴巴裡。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwm7UgBfep0

在腦裡聲音指使之下，埃美克戎毫不慌張地在落下間重整態勢，槍矛直指巨獸口裡透出紅光之處，借助下落勢頭把它刺穿。紅光之塊破裂一刻，形成巨獸面目的黑霧隨之瓦解。濃霧遮蓋漸漸消失的夕陽，令列車內外一眾目光染成漆黑。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDJxPplcL2

機組人員再次回到法依及佳依身邊，向逐步放下戒備的兩人報告過後，燈光隨即於漸黑的車廂裡亮起，下方各個車輪亦再次向前滾動，帶著眾人在透明屏障中繼續向目的地前進。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9OWUmizYB

「妲羽……為什麼我感覺到妲羽的氣息在那輛列車上？」淡色雙瞳目送平平無奇的銀白長蛇駛向遠方，好不容易恢復平靜的心靈不忘回顧從交戰之際便在車廂裡隱約浮現的氣息。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSRbjdv7NO

「無論如何，現在妳得先集中於戰事之中。最近怨靈的個體數量的確比之前增加了不少，而且已經開始有了襲擊淨土生靈的意識，妳不能掉以輕心……」然而腦內使者低沉的聲線如實把現況吐出，逼使埃美克戎不得不先放下對妲羽的掛念。469Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYrpgb2604

「慢著，這股緻密的邪念……是從浮光淨土邊界那邊傳來的？」話語才剛停頓沒幾秒鐘，使者又突然以驚訝聲線開口講話，並在埃美克戎腳下施放金黃色傳送法陣，再道：「接下來我會把妳傳送到浮光淨土東南端，穢物已經聚集在淨土結界外圍，妳得做好戰鬥準備。」
