"Dressing room?"
KIKI frowned and looked at him: "Why do you need a dressing room as a grown man?"
"Ah."
Lu Xingchen looked at her sideways with his hands behind his back: "You don't understand this. As a god, you must pay attention to your manners." He lifted his bangs and said confidently: "Even in troubled times, you must know how to deal with the world and not be chaotic."
"Tsk." KIKI looked at him with disgust: "Then you keep setting fire to your shirt. I think you should just stop wearing it. It's a waste of clothes."
Lin Xian, who was standing by, also felt that this made some sense.
"Or I can prepare a full-coverage armor for you later. It can not only increase your firepower, but also prevent you from being exposed shirtless and being shot by sneak attacks."
"Brother Lin, that's a good idea!"
Hearing this, Lu Xingchen looked over eagerly: "It's best to be handsome... no, tailor-made so that it won't hinder the use of my Vulcan power. Brother Lin is the God of Machinery, so it must be easy for you."
Lin Xian looked at him eagerly and hesitated to speak: "You wait too."
Lin Xian does have a plan to customize the full-coverage armor.
The so-called full-coverage armor is different from combat mecha. The former is a fully enclosed exoskeleton device, similar to the Iron Man armor, while the latter is a war weapon with large size and strong firepower.
His original plan was to scan the Iron Guard Brigade's exoskeleton combat armor first, and then make slight improvements and manufacture it, or upgrade and develop it through the R&D center.
Once it's manufactured, he will use it himself first so that he can bring out his talent for mechanical manufacturing in combat. In the current battle, his wind gun and ice wall are obviously not enough.
By then, he could even tailor-make suitable armor for everyone. For example, although KIKI has powerful superpowers, the little girl's superpowers obviously do not enhance her body much. She is so delicate. The red mark he poked on KIKI's forehead just now has not disappeared yet...
However, due to time constraints at Yubei Airport, he failed to scan the extremely complex exoskeleton device, which was somewhat regrettable. He had to look for another plan.
Hua Hua Hua~
The Infinity was speeding along the high-speed track, the sun was shining brightly in the sky, but the intercom inside the car was somewhat silent.
Shuqin's convoy followed closely behind the Infinity, not daring to be careless for a moment.
Driving out of Jiazhou City, the track enters an old forest in the mountains. The road system is complex, and several highways gradually appear in the parallel direction of the track.
Many abandoned cars and some wandering zombies also began to appear in the field of vision.
Perhaps it was because they had just experienced the crazy group of zombie crows in Jiazhou Dead City, so when everyone saw those howling zombies, they didn’t feel scared at all. Instead, they inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity.
"Zombies have appeared. It seems that there are no zombie crows around."
In the cockpit, Lin Xian and Chen Sixuan sat on each side of the cockpit.
"Lin Xian, do you have any direction next?"
Lin Xian looked at the long orbit around the star in front of him, shook his head and said, "Although I know that the world will eventually be swallowed by the night, it was not until the countdown of the Phoenix Society came out that I felt so desperate. 1 year and 96 days... I wonder how those people in the Iron Guard Brigade would feel if they knew that the survivors they guarded might not even survive for a year."
“That’s not the case.”
"Ok?"
Chen Sixuan looked at him and said gently, "When they give up retreating, they will no longer consider gains and losses. Even if it only allows us to survive until tomorrow, it will be a victory."
"Because courage is never a measure of distance. It can transcend time and dimensions."
"So why is it 1 year and 96 days for humanity to go extinct, rather than 1 year and 96 days for humanity to prepare for a counterattack?"
Lin Xian was startled for a moment, then he smiled and said, "You're right, one year and ninety-six days are not a period for us to escape. There are still many things we can do." The Infinity drove out from a mountain range and was now more than a hundred kilometers away from Jiazhou City.
"Pukou Station should be approaching soon."
Chen Sixuan said while looking at the driving screen. Just as she raised her head, her eyes did not change: "Lin Xian, look quickly."
Lin Xian was taking a nap in the driver's seat at this time, seizing the time to restore his energy. He looked up quickly when he heard Chen Sixuan's words, and immediately saw that the main track in front of him entered a small platform. The platform was located in a valley. On a wide road next to it, more than 30 vehicles of the survivors were neatly parked.
But from a distance, many of the cars had their doors open, their bodies and windows covered in blood, but there was no one in them.
Lin Xian's expression immediately became solemn, because he was very familiar with these cars. They were the convoy of survivors who had gone up the high-altitude corridor together at the airport before.
squeak~
The train slowly stopped and entered the platform. The Shuqin convoy at the back also drove up. Shuqin got off the train and said in surprise, "Isn't this the Fireline convoy?"
"Know him?" Lin Xian and others also got off the train.
"Yes, we knew them. We fought together with them in Area C at the airport." The young man named Lu Chang from Shuqin's team frowned and said, "And it's not just the Fireline Team..."
"Go and see."
Lin Xian immediately took people to check and found that there were two modified heavy trucks in the fleet. The configuration of the entire fleet was still quite high.
woohoo~
A strong wind was blowing through the valley, whistling through the open door and cockpit of the heavy truck, making a humming sound. The entire convoy was neat and quiet, and everyone checked each vehicle cautiously, only to find that there was indeed no one there.
Shuqin took out a scraper from her waist, scraped a little blood on the window of an SUV with the tip of the knife, put it in front of her eyes to check, and then frowned and said
"He died last night, but there is no body left. Although there are some signs of being eaten by crows, it is not that serious. He should not have died from crows."
"That's weird." KIKI came over and looked around: "There are at least a hundred people here, how come there is no resistance at all, it's like..."
"No one reacted." Lu Xingchen looked like a detective: "There must be something strange here."
Shasha hid behind Chen Sixuan, looking at the neatly parked cars, feeling uneasy: "Did they encounter some scary monster?"
Chen Sixuan said nothing and looked at Lin Xian
"I don't know either." Lin Xian looked at Shu Qin: "Are there any other convoys here?"
Shuqin walked over and nodded, saying, "This is a merger of three convoys. They all came from the airport with us. They should have escaped from the group of corpse crows in Jiazhou City, but their situation is not as serious as ours, so they must have encountered something else."
Lin Xian looked gloomy. "These cars are almost intact. Even if there was a degeneration or mutation inside, it wouldn't be like this. Someone would definitely resist or drive away, but no car here has been moved."
KIKI said, "That's why they were resting here at night, but something happened."
At this time, Lin Xian heard some whispers, turned around and saw several men and women from Shuqin's convoy, one of whom was the young man named Zhou Yixuan.
"what are you guys saying?"
These people all looked a little strange at this moment. They were pale and had shocked eyes, as if they were frightened by the scene.
"Qin...Sister Qin, isn't this what the rumors said before..."
"Zhou Yixuan, stop talking nonsense!" Shu Qin seemed to know what he was going to say and stopped him sternly.
