Chapter 89 Hot Pot
Chapter 89 Hot Pot (3 more monthly tickets required)
The late-night thugs and the encounter with a huge strange entity were so dangerous that everyone broke out in a cold sweat.
Woo~
The panel of carriage No. 5 was lowered and two flashlights were turned on. Lin Xian and the building looked at the scene outside and couldn't help but change their expressions slightly.
Lin Xian couldn't think of any other adjective except tragic.
Wow!
The blizzard poured into the carriages crazily. Lin Xian closed the gate leading from carriage No. 5 to carriage No. 4. When the lights shone through, he could see that the two vehicles in the flatbed carriage at the back, except for the armored vehicle, could still be seen. The remaining off-road vehicle had become a pile of scrap metal.
The tentacles of the giant jellyfish swept along the railroad tracks, and the large convoy outside that had looted in the middle of the night had been completely wiped out.
Not to mention people, not even a corpse was seen. The roadsides and hillsides were covered with splattered blood and various car fragments. The ground was dug up with a one or two meter deep black gully, which was soon covered with a layer of white by the blizzard.
Lin Xian tightened his collar, jumped off the train, looked at the outer armor of the train, and exclaimed solemnly:
"Fortunately, the roof of the car was reinforced, otherwise it would have been ruined this time."
The armor of the entire train had been mostly deformed at this time, and the solid high-manganese steel armor was covered with drag marks, and the pillows on the track under the train were almost all shattered.
Lin Xian was filled with gratitude at this moment. If he had not spent two nights in Yuchi upgrading the armor of the entire vehicle, no one would have survived tonight.
"Brother Xian, can this be repaired?"
It was the first time that Lin Xian saw an expression of panic on the big man's face. Indeed, Lin Xian was also shocked.
But the strange thing is that after he entered the fear illusion of the 1542 frequency band, he found that his threshold of fear seemed to have increased a lot, and he was not so scared at this time.
"It's not a big problem." Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the entire train. "It just takes some time. It's better than losing your life."
In the doomsday, everything is lacking, but as long as you are alive, there will be no problem.
"Let's go, let's fix the track first. If we run into any other troubles, we'll be stuck here."
At this time, KIKI walked out of carriage No. 5 and jumped down lightly.
"Lin Xian, I'm here to help too."
Lin Xian looked at her and said, "Didn't I ask you to use a drone to explore the surrounding area?"
"I've seen it. Guess what." KIKI pointed to the dark sky. "After that thing passed by, there's nothing left around here that can move except us..."
Lin Xian frowned
"So cruel?"
KIKI nodded. "This thing is definitely not on the same level as the weird creatures we encountered before. Just now, Sasha told me that she saw an Iron Guard Brigade during the day. I guess they are here to deal with this thing."
"The army? Then we need to speed up."
Lin Xian's face darkened as he said, "If this thing passes Daluo Mountain and enters Yubei City, we may not be able to get to the high-altitude corridor."
"So I came to help." KIKI put on a thick down jacket, which Sasha had found in Yuchi City before. The howling wind and snow made her little face a little red from the cold.
She walked towards the front of the car. Lin Xian looked at her back and suddenly called her.
"Zhao Enqi, this name sounds nice."
"How can it sound nice? My name is KIKI, a country bumpkin." KIKI spat at him and walked forward without looking back.
Lin Xian smiled and said nothing more.
Judging from KIKI's reaction, she knew what happened during her previous coma.
Laying tracks is simple but also difficult.
There is a lot of space for the decomposition of the rail steel forest. The trouble is that the roadbed of the entire railway section has been damaged, and the base soil needs to be filled in and pillow stones need to be laid.
However, Lin Xian chose a simpler method, which was to use steel frames for simple paving. Fortunately, the damaged area was not large, so it was not a big problem to drive the train through.
Bang bang bang~
The steel frames and rail steels were quickly formed under Lin Xian's mechanical heart, and the beams were erected and welded, and everything went on in an orderly manner.
KIKI watched Lin Xian repair the track and glanced at him. "How did it feel like when the train flew that day?"
"It's very exciting." Lin Xian smiled helplessly, "I didn't expect we would be so crazy."
"If you don't go crazy, you will die!"
KIKI wrinkled her nose and asked for credit. "You said you wanted to soar into the sky. Look, I'll help you achieve the first step."
"Indeed, I'll give you credit for the first place."
"Hehe~"
"but……"
Lin Xian looked at the gullies on the track ahead and sighed, "There are dangers lurking everywhere in the dark night. We have already encountered two broken tracks before we even got into orbit around the star. It seems that such problems will be inevitable in the future. We must solve this problem first."
KIKI raised his hand and activated his supernatural power to place a section of rail steel cast by Lin Xian on the steel frame, and then said
"If you follow your idea and make the train run off the track in the first stage, then the most direct way is to make the drive wheels tracked. However, there are many disadvantages. Speed, energy consumption, noise, and failure rate are all problems..."
Lin Xian did not refute, but said, "It is impossible to become rich overnight. The main line of the circumstellar orbit should be unobstructed. Otherwise, the Phoenix Federation would not have been able to mobilize the Interstellar Army Iron Guard Brigade in such a large number. In fact, it has only been a few months since the Apocalypse Day. Both the Phoenix Federation and the remaining survivors have already begun to adapt, investigate, and research in the process of continuous escape..."
"Although we are hiding here and there now, we are sure that we are getting more and more information. The true face of the weirdness will gradually surface, and the exploration of the supernatural power and soul-sweeping value is also growing. It's just that we don't have enough resistance now, so we have to flee all the way to the east to gain time to survive, grow and breathe. So no matter whether it is tracked, magnetically levitated or wheeled, as long as we can solve the problem of broken tracks in the short term, we will achieve our goal..."
"I understand what you mean." KIKI let out a long sigh. "Anyway, having one more choice is better than having no choice. Living one more day is better than waiting to die."
"Yes." Lin Xian nodded, "Let's first figure out whether there is one or not."
"So we have to go to Dungeon No. 9." KIKI came over and patted Lin Xian on the shoulder with a serious look. "We all have to rely on your mechanical abilities, conductor. Join the glorious mechanical evolution, ha!"
"Why, I have been promoted from a bad guy to a train conductor?" Lin Xian looked at her with interest.
"That's right, you have now officially been upgraded to my KIKI's exclusive train conductor."
KIKI winked at him and said, "Do your best. I'll leave my life to you."
Lin Xian: …
When Lin got back into the car, he found that the heater had been turned on in advance and the car was extremely warm.
Although a lot of armor was deformed, the Infinity as a whole did not suffer much damage, and the internal compartments were intact and there were no air leaks.
Woohoo~
The howling snowstorm was madly hitting the heavy train that was parked in the dark night. Through the gaps in the sunshades, the interior of the train was filled with warm yellow lights, giving people a great sense of security.
Like a patriarch, Chen Sixuan cooked a big pot of "Doomsday Hot Pot" with canned beans, canned beef brisket, canned braised pork, canned vegetables, as well as bagged bamboo shoots and vermicelli. The aroma of meat wafted through carriage No. 1, and steam rose from the dining table. Chen Sixuan also brought KIKI her favorite canned fruit and the red wine seized from Tang Hai.
"Cheers to Brother Lin's safe return and Sister KIKI's recovery!"
At the dining table, Sasha looked excited and raised her wine glass high.
"Cheers to another day lived for everyone!" Lin Xian also raised his glass.
"Cheers to the evolution of my superpowers!" KIKI giggled.
"Ah?" Everyone looked over at once.
KIKI sighed and looked around at the four people, "What are you standing there for? Cheers first!"
"cheers!!"
The new book is on the shelves, begging for monthly tickets, infinite train, rushing into the sky!
Thank you so much!
