Chapter 9 Night Devours Cars

Chapter 9 Night Devours Cars
Os Furniture City is located in the outer ring of Jiang City. It is usually sparsely populated. In addition, there are no other survivors who have nothing to do and hide in the furniture city. This gives Lin Xian the opportunity to completely let himself go.

Lin Xian looked at the time, 16:30, more than two hours before dark.

So he didn't hesitate to choose an expensive but not exaggerated sectional leather sofa, which he loaded onto a truck with a forklift, and then found a foldable steel bed.

Although the door of carriage No. 3 is relatively large, it is obviously not practical to stuff a large wooden bed into it, so Lin now plans to weld a steel frame bed into the carriage. As long as it is covered with a folding Simmons mattress and a latex mattress, it will be very comfortable.

By the way, pillows and quilts are essential.

Lin Xian was happier and happier as he moved around. Later, he saw a 60-inch light-screen TV hanging on the wall of a brand store, and his eyes lit up.

"Well, it would be nice if there was an entertainment area where we could play games and watch movies when we have nothing to do."

“Move away!”

Without saying a word, Lin Xian dismantled what he could and soon filled the flatbed truck to the brim.

If the bathroom space in carriage No. 1 was not limited, he would even want to move the toilet and bathtub from the bathroom area.

hum~
In the small truck, Lin Xian's eyes glowed, and the engine roared again as the Mechanical Heart drove on. Loading the truck with a lot of trophies, he drove around the parking lot road and into the green belt beside the railroad tracks. He stepped on the accelerator and knocked down the iron mesh wall that separated the tracks. The truck stumbled onto the gravel slope of the railroad tracks.

Chen Sixuan on the train waited for more than an hour, and was shocked when she saw Lin Xian rushing towards her in a truck.

When I looked again, I saw that the truck was filled with sofas, mattresses, and even a TV. I was even more confused.

Is this also considered supplies?

Isn't the most important thing in doomsday to find water or food, or weapons? Chen Sixuan was a little confused, but when she saw Lin Xian driving the car to the back of car No. 3, she hurried over to help.

Clang~Woo~
The tailgate of carriage No. 3 was slowly lowered, and Lin Xian stepped on it with a dagger on his back. He moved the motorcycle and crane away first, and then the two of them began to move the sofa, bed frame, mattress, pillows, quilt, carpet, and TV into carriage No. 1.

By the time everything was done, the sun was setting.

Both of them were exhausted and sweating.

Didi, didi~
The alarm on his watch started to ring, and Lin Xian's expression became serious. He said to Chen Sixuan:
"You go over there, eat something and get organized. I have to clean up this truck."

At this moment, he had a bold idea. Since the truck was already in front of him, why not take this opportunity to devour it?

Even if he encounters danger, he can raise the protective tailgate of the car immediately.

It sounds a bit risky. After all, the dangers in the dark are not those ordinary zombies, but Lin Xian doesn't want to waste this rare upgrade opportunity, so he decides to take a gamble.

"Oh, okay."

Chen Sixuan was like an obedient and well-behaved daughter-in-law at this time. She immediately did what Lin Xian told her to do.

After Chen Sixuan left carriage No. 3, Lin Xian took off the door and put his specially made traction hook around his waist. Before night fell, he got off the train, put his hand on the small truck, and activated the ability of [Mechanical Devouring] without hesitation.

The familiar feeling of swallowing the car before came again. Lin Xian felt that the energy in his body was draining away at an accelerated rate. At the same time, the progress of swallowing in the light curtain in front of him seemed extremely slow compared to the previous small appliances.

He put one hand on the small truck and the other hand tightly grasped the metal hook. The reason why Lin Xian put the hook cable was mainly to be able to control the "Infinity" at any time. His ability can only control the machinery he touches. In the case of connecting with metal wires, it will be ineffective if the distance is a little far.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the surroundings were silent. Because there was no light, as the sun set, the view began to become darker, and Lin Xian's expression began to become solemn.

In a trance, he even inexplicably felt that the earth was breathing...

Is this the Dark Tide?

18:45
The sky suddenly turned dark, and the darkness seemed to have no transition at all, which was extremely strange.

For more than two months, the survivors seem to have gotten used to the changes.

They could only pray that the night would pass quickly. Only at daybreak did some survivors dare to come out of the shelter to search for supplies that could help them survive.

But in fact, everyone knows that after the polar night, food and water will run out one day, but no one knows whether dawn will come.

Hiding in a shelter is tantamount to slow death, but migrating and fleeing is even more of a gamble. Steel bars, concrete, and iron doors may not be able to block the weirdness in the dark. Going into the wild and hiding in a car, what are the chances of survival?
No matter which option you choose, there is no absolute safety.

Therefore, people with special abilities become the leaders of surviving teams. They have extraordinary abilities and can bring a sense of security that exceeds that of steel and concrete.

Before the polar night, when the Internet had not yet been completely paralyzed, Lin Xian had seen many people with extraordinary abilities on the Internet. They quickly became popular on the Internet, becoming doomsday leaders that people scrambled to chase, and at the same time became the focus of official research and cooperation.

When Lin Xian first posted the Infinite Train recruitment plan on the forum, he also thought about whether he should announce his own special abilities and recruit a large number of followers.

But he quickly gave up the idea.

He felt that he did not have the ability to manage hundreds or thousands of survivors in a doomsday environment. Although his abilities were magical, he had difficulty protecting himself at present. If he became a leader, the most he could provide would be to drive trains and repair machinery. He didn't want to fail to become a leader and instead be treated as a human battery by others. That would be a real pain...

Facts have proved that his worries are completely correct. It has only been two months since the apocalypse, and human tragedies and mobs killing each other for supplies have become commonplace, and those with superpowers are incomprehensibly powerful. In contrast, Lin Xian's abilities seem really mediocre in the early stages.

An hour into the night, the devouring process was finally halfway completed. Lin Xian maintained absolute concentration at this time, always alert to the pitch-black environment around him.

He turned off all the lights on the train, and his whole body seemed to merge into the darkness. Even his breathing slowed down. He just placed his hand on the pickup truck, swallowing it quietly.

In order to avoid exposing the faint mysterious light in his eyes, Lin Xian even closed his eyes and carefully used his ears to alert his surroundings. There were barbed wire walls on both sides of the railway. He should be able to hear any movement, and if something approached on the rails, it should also make a sound.

[Devouring progress 77%]

Almost there, almost successful...

At this moment, a slight sound of gravel breaking suddenly occurred.
