Chapter 246 Upgrade the Mechanical Energy Cannon!
Chapter 246 Upgrade the Mechanical Energy Cannon!
Bang bang bang~
At this time, Lin Xian was constantly manufacturing ammunition to replenish the convoy's combat power and logistics.
"The Hell Black Chrysanthemum should have absorbed a lot of black smoke this time, and it is estimated that it will increase a lot of mechanical source points, and other team members will also gain a lot of invisible benefits."
Lin Xian had never mentioned to the team about the improvement of Hell Black Chrysanthemum on evolution. Everyone was changing quietly. The most direct change was the team's energy. After each battle break, the members of the Infinity Team were in very good condition. And from the [Team Member Observation Record] that Ding Junyi gave to Lin Xian, people including Shuqin, Chen Sixuan, Lu Chang, Miao Lu, and Shasha had obvious improvements in the most basic strength.
Although there is a lack of observation of the physical functions of KIKI, Lu Xingchen, Dalou and other superpowers, it can be seen from this battle that they are gradually getting stronger in the control and development of their superpowers.
"Snow water is poisonous..."
Lin Xian, who was making bullets, suddenly thought of this problem, and a look of worry appeared on his face. He looked up at the roof of the train. Although it had been reinforced in many directions, he had not considered the problems of water seepage and sealing.
When Lin was planning the train, he actually considered problems such as toxic gas and lack of oxygen. At that time, his plan was to use the water-oxygen circulation system in the carriage to directly support the air of the entire train.
However, along the way, all his energy was spent on upgrading weapons and armor, and the priority of this issue was infinitely placed at the back. Now the upcoming snow poison problem forced him to pay attention to it again.
While Lin Xian was thinking about the problem, he did not notice a figure walking into the carriage.
"Team Lin?"
A somewhat timid female voice sounded, and Lin Xian looked up and found that it was Xiaoyuan who lived in the living compartment.
At this time, Xiaoyuan seemed to have just taken a shower, with water droplets dripping on her wet hair. She was wrapped in a large towel and only wore thin clothes. Although they were not pajamas, they were obviously underwear for sleeping.
Seeing her timid look, Lin Xian immediately asked, "Are you looking for me?"
"Oh... no, um... yes." Xiao Yuan couldn't help but get a little nervous when she saw Lin Xian's gaze. She raised her panicked eyes and looked at Lin Xian: "I saw that you... were still busy here so late, so I wanted to ask you... if you would like some hot soup?"
"Hot soup?" Lin Xian frowned.
"No, no!" Xiao Yuan immediately realized something when Lin Xian asked, and waved her hands in panic to explain: "It's the canned fruit I personally allocated. I didn't take any extra supplies from the team... If you want to drink it, I can cook it for you."
Under the light, her face was hot, and she avoided Lin Xian's gaze awkwardly, lowering her head and saying
"The pear soup I cooked is delicious. Drinking it can warm your stomach..."
Xiaoyuan has a good figure, is slightly plump and introverted, and is the kind of good girl who is very lovable when she smiles. She usually has a good relationship with other people in the team. Although she can't provide much help in combat, because she is young, smart, knowledgeable, and a good cook, she often handles the internal affairs of the car with Miao Lu and Chen Sixuan, and now seems to be becoming the core of the team.
"Well, yes."
Seeing her blushing face and somewhat unnatural posture, Lin Xian guessed something immediately. In recent times, he had consciously or unconsciously noticed Xiao Yuan's eager gazes towards him, but he did not say much, nor did he directly refuse. He continued to make bullets.
When Xiao Yuan saw Lin Xian agreed, she was delighted and nodded quickly, saying incoherently:
"Okay...Okay, Captain Lin, you, you wait for me."
After saying that, she immediately turned around and ran towards the car in front.
After a while, Xiao Yuan carefully brought him a pot of pear sweet soup in a lunch box. Lin Xian took it and drank a sip. He couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's really delicious. It seems that some spices were added to it?"
Hearing Lin Xian's praise, Xiao Yuan was suddenly a little excited. She couldn't help but take a few steps closer and pointed at the dried roots in the sweet soup.
"It's dried vanilla seeds and dried verbena..."
She bent down, and her large chest trembled in front of Lin Xian's eyes. Halfway through her words, she felt that she was too close, and immediately took a half step back: "I found it when I was collecting supplies before, and I took it in the car."
"Oh, that's great."
Lin Xian felt a little emotional. He knew that everyone in the living area had some life preferences. In addition to the main supplies, they collected a variety of items in their own safe houses. Human beings are always unwilling to be lonely in their living habits. Even at the end of the world, they are still full of love for life.
Lin Xian drank half of it in big gulps, looked up, and saw Xiao Yuan standing next to him. He couldn't help but say
"It's a bit cold now, you should go back to bed. I'll take it to the dining car myself after I finish drinking."
Xiao Yuan heard this, a hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes, and she nodded.
"Okay...Okay, then Captain Lin, you should also go to bed early."
……
The snow wind began to howl. At 3 a.m., the convoy camp was covered with a thin layer of snow. There were still lights on each convoy and the Infinity, indicating the team members on duty.
After entering the night, almost all the survivors' convoys got into the habit of taking turns to guard the night. The darker it was, the more restless they could be. Over a long period of time, many people had become accustomed to this reversal of day and night.
In carriage No. 12, Lin Xian had prepared a lot of ammunition, looked at the time, and prepared to take a rest.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the light curtain of the Mechanical Heart suddenly lit up.
[Non-mechanical energy has been converted, mechanical source points +1000]
Lin Xian's eyes focused, it seems that the energy of the Heterogeneous Rubik's Cube to transform into the Hell Black Chrysanthemum is full!
He immediately walked towards the corridor of the carriage, looking at the tiny fluorescent light flowing in the air, feeling that his physical strength and energy were constantly recovering and growing. He had just produced a lot of bullets in succession, and his spirits were better than before.
Lin Xian began to walk towards the corridor of the living compartment. Along the way, the team members in each cabin were resting peacefully. Shu Qin was sitting on a bench in the corridor with a gun in her hand, looking out the window. She stood up immediately when she saw Lin Xian coming.
"Team Lin."
"You should also take a rest." Lin Xian often saw Shuqin on duty in the middle of the night, and couldn't help but say: "We are fully staffed now, and we need you to save enough energy."
Shuqin shook her head and said, "I'm used to it. Now everyone feels safe on the Infinity, but this sense of security is also dangerous for us, so I will guard a little longer at night. The carriage is very long, and I will feel more at ease guarding the back."
Lin Xian nodded when he heard this. Shu Qin's worries were not unreasonable. There still had to be cadres on duty at night, so it would be easier to deal with problems when they occurred.
"Okay, make sure you rotate. We're going into a blizzard area. The threat during the day is no less than at night."
"Yeah, I know." Shuqin gave Lin Xian a reassuring smile.
In carriage No. 5, Dasha was on duty at night. Lu Xingchen was already fast asleep, while Dasha was sitting on a stool, constantly wiping his steel-cutting sword.
"Building, since your ability evolved into blood and energy, your physical fitness has improved a lot compared to before."
"Brother Xian." Dalou grinned, "It seems so. It doesn't matter if you don't sleep."
"If you don't sleep, you'll die."
Lin Xian looked at the big sword and suddenly felt a headache. He originally positioned Dalou as a heavy-armored firepower warrior, but after Dalou evolved, his blood and energy abilities seemed to be more suitable for close combat and killing monsters. As a result, weaponized armor was of no use to him. It seemed that he could only work on weapons and mobility.
After a brief conversation with the building about his special abilities, Lin Xian came to carriage No. 3, ready to take a look at the new blood disaster plant.
As expected, after obtaining this new disaster plant, Ding Junyi broke her regular schedule without hesitation and worked overtime to study it.
"Judging from the leaves, stems, and inflorescence, it should be a plant of the genus Acanthaceae. The anthers are purple, so it should be the Silver Dragon Acanthus, but it is indeed a dark variant like the Hell Black Chrysanthemum, so it is definitely a blood disaster plant." When the footsteps of Lin Xian were heard, Ding Junyi said without even raising her head.
"A hundred thousand wrong? Are you sure this is the name of the plant?" Hearing this name, Lin Xian couldn't help but frowned.
"Yes, Acanthaceae, 100,000 genus."
Ding Junyi raised her head and looked at Lin Xian: "But since this plant is a variant, I define it as the No. 2 disaster plant. If you want to give it a nice name, it's up to you."
"Forget it, let's just call him Silver Dragon Shiwancuo." Lin Xian didn't have Lu Xingchen's childish personality, and this name also sounded childish, so there was no need for him to change his name.
Ding Junyi paused, then walked towards Lin Xian. She pointed at the light flowing in the air and said
"In theory, this energy is most likely cold dark basic particles, or it appears in front of us in a special form due to the characteristics of the No. 1 disaster plant. This energy must also have some common relationship with blood essence, the black smoke after the death of the strange body, and the dark invasion in the polar night. I think if we can decipher this energy, we will soon be able to confirm the existence of the dark mark on the human body."
"...After the Phoenix Society confirms it and develops a means of detection, the entire world will be able to observe the existence of the Dark Mark." Lin Xian added, "For all survivors, this will completely change people's understanding and planning of the doomsday and escape. The upside is that rational judgment will reduce deaths, but the downside is that the survival pressure on all survivors will become even greater..."
"Yes, this is a groundbreaking discovery for mankind." Ding Junyi raised her glasses. "It's like successfully isolating a virus strain in virology. At least it lets us know what this energy that can change consciousness and physical form actually looks like."
"You seem to be in a good mood?"
"For science, yes." Ding Junyi said seriously, "Idealism and theism are destructive to science, so I am glad that I can find a solid scientific theoretical basis for this so-called 'miracle' evolution, even though it is really magical."
Lin Xian walked into the Silver Dragon Ten Thousand Cuo and found that the plant was still very young at this time. The whole body was preserved in a soilless tank. Looking closely, the purple lines in the roots and rhizomes were like some kind of passage in the microscopic world, which was fascinating. Ding Junyi looked at Captain Lin's expression and walked towards him.
"The properties of the Blood Plague Plant far exceed our original knowledge. From the current point of view, this special plant is also a very rare existence. I believe that the Phoenix Order and other joint organizations are constantly increasing their exploration and acquisition of this plant. We are very lucky to have obtained two plants."
Lin Xian nodded: "I hope this thing can give us a little surprise."
Before Lin Xian could finish his words, he found that Ding Junyi had disappeared from his sight. He looked down and saw that Ding Junyi had squatted down and actively pulled down his pants.
"Wait, what is this for?" Lin Xian asked in surprise
Ding Junyi's face was a little hot, she gently pulled Lin Xian's pants and said, "Currently, the Hell Black Chrysanthemum is transforming and releasing energy. Under this energy, everyone in the car is undergoing evolution or some kind of change, so I want to do an experiment..."
As she spoke, she slowly raised her head and looked at Lin Xian with a strong hormonal desire: "The experiment is: when the human body is excited, will this evolution become more intense and passionate..."
Lin Xian was shocked and his understanding of Ding Junyi's way of expression was refreshed again.
"No, tell me the truth, do you really want to experiment?" Lin Xian asked in surprise.
Ding Junyi grabbed Lin Xian's vital point, thought for a moment, and even lowered her voice.
"From the perspective of expressing priorities, I want to be experimented on by you!"
Click~
The lights in carriage No. 3 were turned off. In the dark corner, Ding Junyi felt her whole body burning. The strong desire was washed into her bones during the siege by the insect swarm. She felt that she could no longer control herself. Originally, she was a serious and meticulous Director Ding. Because of her pursuit of the lofty field of science, she had long since sneered and thrown away what she originally thought to be low-level and boring things in her genes.
But now it is the end of the world, and all the rules and social logic in the world collapsed on the same day. Since the destruction of Underground City No. 9, it seems that there is no Director Ding in the world anymore, no research topics, no dull, stale and depressing laboratories, but only this hero who suddenly appeared in Underground City No. 9 and saved her from the fire and water when she was dying, and the masculine aura that makes her feel irresistible.
So, okay.
I decided that he was the one, and threw away all the low and boring things, the human existence of a woman in this world, the repression I had experienced in front of my desk from adolescence to the time when I was preparing for postgraduate and doctoral studies, and the loneliness and pain in the laboratory where I couldn't even make any jokes!
It turns out that there is such a way to live life. In addition to the sense of accomplishment gained in the scientific community, this low-level and boring thing is actually so joyful.
In the rest room converted from a disinfection room, Ding Junyi sat on a surfboard and surfed freely, as if she was riding a horse or sailing on the ocean. She wanted to transform herself into a heat wave and completely melt the savior, the sustenance of pain, the master of idealism, the king of the soul, and the warm mixer, whom she had identified as her lifelong partner!
"Hmm~!"
Ding Junyi suppressed the roar in her heart, transformed it into action, and accepted the signals coming from the various nerve sensory elements of the human body from a biological point of view.
But what follows is an even greater surge of senses, like an electric current passing through, shocking!
Lin Xian was even at a critical point between controlling and being controlled. He was shocked and couldn't help but said, "Wait a minute..."
"No~"
Ding Junyi held him down, but did not stop riding, instead he increased the frequency!
She came close to Lin Xian in the darkness, exhaling hot air from her nose, and said in a fiery voice:
"This...is part of an experiment. I need you to follow the standard steps of the experiment."
"I need to~get perfect experimental data... um, well~"
what?
Lin Xian was shocked. The enthusiasm of the science masochist was too overwhelming.
The first snow fell, the convoy in the dark night, the vitality and the scene of all things competing are still before our eyes!
When Lin Xian woke up, a light screen popped up in his mechanical heart.
[Congratulations, the mechanical amplification was successful, and the wind cannon has been upgraded to a mechanical energy cannon! ]
[Mechanical Energy Cannon: A beam of mechanical energy cannon is fired from the fingertips, which has strong destructive power. 】
"Success?!"
When Lin Xian saw this scene, he was about to turn over and stand up, but unexpectedly he found a warm woman lying on him.
Ding Junyi seemed completely exhausted and was sleeping soundly. Lin Xian looked down and could even see that the small green seedling above her head had sprouted a small pink flower facing Lin Xian, which seemed to emit a fresh fragrance.
"All right……"
Lin Xian lay back down again, and without saying anything, he immediately began to mechanically amplify the ice wall.
[Ice Wall—Mechanical Amplification]
[Mechanical amplification starts: Ice wall 1 day 19:59:59]
"Hmm... Aren't the Ice Wall and Wind Gun skills of the same level? How come the mechanical amplification time is almost doubled?"
Lin Xian was a little depressed. After several hours of energy recovery, he felt that most of his energy seemed to have recovered. He immediately reached out and picked up Ding Junyi and put her aside. Then he got up and prepared to test the mechanical energy cannon. By the way, he went to the heterogeneous Rubik's Cube to see how many mechanical source points had been converted.
Coming out of carriage No. 3, he immediately ran to carriage No. 1 and lit up the heterogeneous Rubik's Cube.
[Non-mechanical energy has been converted, and 550 mechanical source points have been obtained. ]
[Ding! Reflex detection is being performed using non-mechanical force. ]
[Detection successful, no risk of fear in the train, dark forces have been shielded from invasion. ]
"There are still 550 points..." Lin Xian was a little surprised. The mechanical source points obtained in this battle were actually more than those obtained by the previous big parasite. It seemed that those insects also contributed a lot.
[Current Mechanical Heart Level LV.4 (1690/7000)]
Unconsciously, the experience points of the Mechanical Heart increased by nearly 20% in one day. This increase can be said to be the largest in recent times.
Of course, the consumption was also not small. The Infinity's ammunition reserves, along with the other three powerful convoys, ran out of ammunition and suffered casualties.
Lin Xian opened a sunshade and looked at the sleeping team outside. He couldn't help but say, "I hope these guys can get better."
After a night of wind and snow, under the reflection of car lights, the outside began to be covered with a layer of white.
It was 6 o'clock in the morning. Except for the personnel on duty, most of the other three teams had already started to rest. It could be seen that this time, several teams joined together to solve the large-scale insect swarm. The personnel of these teams had a rare peaceful night.
"Team Lin."
Lin Xian got out of the car and turned around to see Lu Chang and two teammates wrapped in thick winter clothes standing on the roof of the car and greeting him.
Lin Xian nodded. These young men were very active in keeping watch, which made the people in the car feel much more at ease.
He was wearing power armor and walked past the pile of insect corpses into the darkness. The people in the convoy were too alert, and any slight disturbance could cause a major chain reaction, so Lin Xian simply walked away.
The cold wind was howling, and the display screen of the power armor indicated his body temperature and the ambient temperature. The flashlight illuminated several bluestones in front of him. Lin Xian looked back at the convoy in the distance and calculated that this distance should be enough.
So he raised his finger, pointed it at one of the bluestones, and prepared to use the mechanical energy cannon.
Chiwu!
At this time, Lin Xian's fingers seemed to be wrapped in some kind of metal device, and he could vaguely hear the sound of some kind of motor storing energy and rotating!
As the sound of energy accumulation became sharp, the next moment, a bright blue energy body shot out from the hole on the fingertip!
call out!
A slight whistling sound was heard, and the mechanical energy cannon shot out from Lin Xian's fingertips! With a sound, it pierced the bluestone in front!
There wasn't even any feedback sound from the bluestone. Lin Xian's eyes fixed, and he quickly walked over and searched for a while with a flashlight before he found a black hole as thick as a finger in the center. He reached out to touch it, then immediately retracted his hand. The temperature of the hole was actually burning, and when the light shone on it, it emitted a thin white smoke.
"So strong?!"
Lin Xian was a little bit unbelievable, and hurriedly walked behind the bluestone. Sure enough, he saw a tiny hole that was completely pierced by this shot!
Lin Xian frowned and quickly measured it. The thickness of the bluestone in front of him was at least more than 80 centimeters. Such a thick bluestone was actually pierced through by his shot. The power was many times greater than the previous air gun!
"I rely on..."
Lin Xian looked at his fingers at this time. There was a mechanical finger similar to a holographic projection flashing on his fingers, but when he reached out to touch it, it disappeared.
"Mechanical energy cannon, quite interesting."
A strange light flashed in Lin Xian's eyes. He calmed down and thought to himself:
"It's much more powerful now. The only problem seems to be the firing frequency. It can't fire continuously like the wind gun before..."
It made him feel like he was replacing a machine gun with a cannon, but it was less efficient for clearing ordinary zombies.
However, he doesn't need to worry about this situation at all. After all, ordinary zombies are no longer a strong threat to him and Infinity.
After the test, Lin Xian prepared to go back. He planned to make some material and airtightness upgrades at the train connections while there was still time. Now the heating system of the entire train car had been turned on. Lin Xian picked up a handful of snow from the ground, his eyes solemn.
He didn't know to what extent the so-called snow water was poisonous. For safety reasons, it would be better to try not to let the snow water seep into the train.
