Doomsday: I Build an Infinite Train.
Chapter 487 Gazing
Chapter 487 Gazing
Thunderclouds raged across the sky, and the seas surged with ferocious waves. In just a few minutes, the Sky Train broke the sound barrier in the gale, pulling the military train along the ocean tracks that had been repeatedly submerged by the waves and were almost invisible. Lin Xian stood on the main bridge, looking at the terrifying tsunami that had been swallowed up behind him, and the dark curtain of crimson waves in the sky further away, his expression grim.
At this moment, they had already broken out of the range of the black sky, and the dark marks on their bodies were completely cleared away after Lu Xingchen's sword strike annihilated a large number of unknown strange entities in the tsunami!
Suddenly, the Sky Train, which had been roaring with firepower just moments before, calmed down, leaving only howling winds and towering waves dozens of meters high churning in the black water below.
"They should have made it out by now, that was close."
Ning Jing returned to the bridge, her figure had shrunk considerably, and she looked to be less than 1.9 meters tall. Although she was still quite tall before, she looked much more normal now.
"We were lucky. If the crimson had erupted last night, we probably would have all perished here."
Lin Xian turned to look at her, his brows furrowing slightly: "You can control your body shape now?"
Ning Jing removed the helmet from her power armor and nodded to Lin Xian, her forehead covered in sweat: "Although it's still a bit chaotic, after fully activating the crystal lattice, I've finally found some clues. I've always doubted my ability type. Phoenix defined it as a super-physical gene evolution type, but now it seems a bit different."
"Do you suspect you have some kind of superpower?" Lin Xian asked.
"Isn't it obvious?" Ning Jing frowned and said, "If I were to actively release that ability now, I should immediately return to my previous size, and perhaps even..." She paused and didn't continue.
At this moment, Ryunosuke and Lu Xingchen's group from Building also quickly entered the main bridge. As soon as Sasha saw Huo Ge return, she immediately stood up from her stool, looked at him in surprise, and exclaimed loudly.
"Wow, well done, Huo-ge! You've really made me admire you a little today!"
"It's really amazing." Shu Qin followed in and looked at Lu Xingchen in agreement: "If we weren't mentally prepared, it would be hard to believe that this is the power that humans can currently unleash. I think Brother Huo might even be able to fight against an S-class person now."
"Exactly!" Lu Chang exclaimed, looking like a fanboy. "That was so cool! He cleaved the tsunami in two with one sword! Dude, that's way too much!"
"It's decided. I thought it was a bit childish before, but starting today, I acknowledge your title of Vulcan." The automatic door opened, and Qian Dele's voice came as he and Monica entered one after the other.
In the other buildings, Ryunosuke was also looking at Lu Xingchen, clearly approving of his feat.
"It was nothing, we all got through that crisis together."
Lu Xingchen was clearly enjoying the moment when everyone was praising him. He stood up straight as a sword, his hands behind his back, and his eyes showed undisguised pride and joy. At this moment, he felt an inexplicable sense of pride, and the pent-up frustration he had suppressed in Xilan and Shuguang City seemed to have been swept away at this moment.
"Brother Lin, and everyone else, rest assured, our combat strength still has a lot of room for improvement, and I believe we can overcome even the greatest crisis."
Lin Xian smiled and interrupted, "Alright, we haven't completely passed through this area of black mist yet, but the high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft has already transmitted data showing that the force of the dark invasion is gradually decreasing, which means we are indeed leaving the danger zone."
Monica stood at the back, her gaze fixed on Lin Xian, and said softly, "High-altitude reconnaissance aircraft? When did you release it, or did you make other preparations just now?"
"Consider it as multiple insurances, but now that we've escaped, let's keep an eye on this issue."
Lin Xian didn't explain much. Instead, he raised his hand and pointed, his eyes flashing with azure information waves. The Mechanical Heart and Viola's intelligent core worked in perfect harmony to control a holographic projection that landed in front of everyone. He organized and categorized the images he had captured from surveillance cameras in various parts of the city and played them out.
At this moment, Ding Junyi and Xiao Yuan from the scientific research lab also arrived here. Looking at the situation on the screen, everyone had complicated expressions.
"It seems the zombies have mutated due to the influence of the crimson?" Xiaoyuan asked softly.
"The speed is so fast, the effects are immediately apparent as soon as it's applied." Ning Jing frowned and said in a deep voice, "This situation is just like..."
“What does it look like?” someone asked.
“Like that night of Apocalypse, right?” Shuqin replied.
Ning Jing nodded.
"So, this seems to be the second cataclysmic disaster that erupted from Xingyuan?" Qian Dele crossed his arms, his expression relatively calm among everyone present. "How so? They couldn't kill them all the first time, so they're intensifying their offensive?"
Lu Chang sighed, somewhat dejectedly, "This is really weird. We thought the biggest challenge would be the S-rank corpse drivers, and we finally managed to improve our abilities, but Xingyuan has even more despair-inducing powers... This..."
“Lu Chang, you don’t have to think about it that way.”
Lin Xian looked at him and shared his thoughts: "Putting aside conspiracy theories like the so-called civilization experiment, from a strategic perspective, the best course of action is to achieve everything in one fell swoop. Although we don't know if humanity can survive the changes in the Star Abyss, if we look at it calmly, it's not as terrifying as it was during the Apocalypse."
Lu Chang looked puzzled: "Ah, Captain Lin, I don't understand what you're saying..."
"Oh dear, you're so dense." Miao Lu said directly, "What Captain Lin means is that if the dark civilization possesses a more advanced power to destroy us, but didn't use its full strength from the start, it means that the enemy either lacks intelligence about us, or that such a trump card comes at a certain price!"
“That’s right.” Ning Jing nodded. “I don’t like the argument that humans are being used for experiments either. In my opinion, this is Xingyuan releasing a greater danger, and it also shows that the resistance of the survivors has made the darkness feel threatened.”
"But……"
Sasha shrugged: "While it makes a lot of sense, this Crimson Descent does seem terrifying. If the Phoenix Society and the Dawn Center are both scattered, many people might not be able to reach the Arctic."
“Even if we reach the polar regions, it will be the same. This kind of unpredictability is too troublesome.” Qian Dele leaned back in his chair and said leisurely, “If we can’t stay in the Crimson, it means that all the cities, fixed factories, and residential strongholds will have to be abandoned. Putting aside what monsters are in the Crimson, or the troublesome nature of the spatial passage we just saw, just resupplying supplies will be a huge problem.”
His gaze swept over the crowd: "The safe city outposts in major regions of Asia Pacific, South America, North America, and Europe are estimated to be completely destroyed. The arsenals and plantation bases set up by the Phoenix Society and those other organizations will also be impossible to take away. What does this mean?"
"This means that all future production and daily life activities will have to be conducted in the car," Lin Xian said in a stern voice.
Upon hearing this, the air seemed to freeze.
Lin Xian slowly exhaled: "Although I think it might not be that bad, those of us with full-body power armor should be able to get around in the Crimson, it certainly can't compare to the previous Night. The danger level is too high. After we meet up with the Alliance team, I estimate that everyone will have to live on this doomsday train and escape all the way."
“Then your plantation isn’t quite enough, huh?” Monica said with a smile.
Lin Xian tilted his head and said, "Perfect timing. I'm planning to connect that intercontinental train with the Infinite, expand the planting carriages, and also plan to do some animal husbandry, raising chickens, ducks, cattle, sheep and the like."
Ning Jing looked at him and smiled slightly: "Captain Lin, I've always felt that you have a kind of energy, that is, no matter how desperate the situation is, you can always find the belief to keep people going."
"What else can we do if we don't persevere? End our own lives?" Lin Xian joked. "You guys are all like Superman now, with a punch that's like a cannon, a sword that can cleave through waves, and some of you can even become giants, control puppets, or fire lasers. You're risking your lives to survive. No matter how difficult the situation is, you can only find a way to cope, right?"
After saying that, he got up and walked towards the door: "Shiori said there has been a change in the hibernation pods. You guys keep an eye on them here, I'm going down to take a look."
“I’ll go with you.” Ding Junyi followed.
“I’m going too!” Sasha’s eyes lit up when she heard this, and she quickly followed behind Lin Xian.
Lin Xian handed over the defensive task to Monica and her group. Now that these people had evolved their crystal lattices, their combat power was terrifying. With Viola and the Sky Dome providing firepower, he could now completely hand over the bridge to everyone and quickly went to the hibernation pod hall with Sasha.
It was not yet 11 a.m., and the sky was overcast. Although the waves were surging outside, the Sky Train remained perfectly stable inside. As soon as Lin Xianlai arrived at the hibernation pod hall, he saw Chen Sixuan sitting in a hibernation pod wearing a nano-underwear. Her face was covered in sweat, her long hair was soaked, and she looked very tired. Shiori was beside her, using her green supernatural power to soothe the surging dark energy fluctuations all over her body.
"Her heart is beating fast, but her mental strength is not a big problem." Shiori said immediately as she saw Lin Xian approaching.
Ding Junyi picked up the terminal and said calmly, "15800, the fluctuation of the Spirit Sweeping Value has increased that much?"
After saying that, she looked at Chen Sixuan and said, "According to my records, your previous peak value should only be 6500. Based on this ratio, your lattice improvement actually exceeded 140%."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xian looked at Chen Sixuan and couldn't help but ask, "What happened, Teacher Chen? Are you feeling alright?"
Chen Sixuan nodded slowly, then took a deep breath and said with her head down, "Lin Xian, I had a nightmare."
"Ok?"
"I dreamt of... a terrifying monster, all of humanity was destined to be devoured by it, phew..."
Chen Sixuan wiped her sweat and touched her chest: "Now I can indeed feel the power of dark energy that you mentioned more realistically. It's like... a kind of water flow that exists in our atmosphere."
Lin Xian smiled slightly, and seeing that Chen Sixuan was alright, he breathed a sigh of relief and helped her down.
“15800, you can now kick the white giant we encountered in Jiangcheng to death with one kick. You could even tear that crimson centipede apart alive.”
"Wow, Sister Chen, you've become so amazing!" Sasha chimed in.
"Am I that violent?" Chen Sixuan looked up at Lin Xian with a frown, glancing at him with a hint of a smile before turning her gaze to the other hibernation pods: "How are they?"
"It should be soon," Lin Xian said.
Sasha ran to check each of Luo Yang and Xiao Qing's hibernation pods, finally stopping at KIKI's. She frowned, squinted inside, and then waved to Lin Xian.
"Brother Lin, what's wrong with Sister KIKI? Is this normal?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xian hurried over, followed by Ding Junyi, Chen Sixuan, and Shiori. The group gathered around KIKI's hibernation pod, and upon seeing the situation inside, their expressions changed slightly.
KIKI, lying in her hibernation pod, kept her eyes open. A deep purple light flickered in her pupils, and countless dazzling shadows slowly swirled around her, like a galaxy vortex, making her look both beautiful and somewhat eerie.
“She suddenly opened her eyes just now when the crimson sky was spreading.” Shiori said with concern, “I checked her condition and everything was normal. Her mental state was more stable than ever before. But strangely, when I used my special ability to resonate with her, I felt a very strange… fluctuation.”
"Fluctuations?" Lin Xian frowned.
“Yes.” Shiori tried to find the words to describe it: “I’ve never been in this situation before, it’s like… something else is responding to me.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Sixuan immediately looked at Lin Xian: "Lin Xian, is there a problem?"
Lin Xian shook his head and looked at KIKI, saying, "Even if there's a problem, we can't tell. Everyone's crystal evolution is accompanied by some strange situations. KIKI is a rare psychic, so she probably won't be too simple. Let's wait and see. It shouldn't be long."
Chen Sixuan nodded.
Soon, the other hibernation pods were opened one after another. Luo Yang, Xiao Qing, and A Bai all successfully completed the lattice evolution. With Lin Xian's heterogeneous cube and his specially made dark energy homogeneous system protecting them, plus Shiori's care, everything progressed more smoothly than expected.
Luo Yang successfully increased his power from 6300 to 13800, while A Bai increased his power from 6900 to 15500. The most impressive was Xiao Qing, a gene evolver who directly evolved from over 7000 to 16800, a terrifying increase in strength.
Of the three, the only one who underwent some unusual changes was Ah Bai. His eyes had turned completely black, which looked somewhat eerie. The advantage was that he no longer needed to wear black sunglasses to control his vision, but the disadvantage was... that he looked rather creepy.
So Ah Bai still put on the laser glasses that Lin Xian had specially made for him.
After Xiaoqing's crystal evolution level reached nearly 17000, her indifferent expression seemed to conceal an indescribable excitement. Although she didn't show it, Lin Xian noticed it at a glance and immediately told her to go up and assist, as there might still be danger outside. The katana-wielding girl nodded immediately, picked up her spear blade, turned around, and walked outside. The corners of her lips curled up imperceptibly, showing that she seemed to have an insatiable desire for battle at this moment.
After Lin Xian and the others waited for nearly an hour, KIKI still showed no signs of waking up. By this time, it was noon. The turbulent waves outside had calmed down, the Sky Train had broken out of the storm area, the sun was shining brightly on the ocean, and they could see the chilling black curtain of the western horizon.
During this time, Lin Xian kept a close eye on KIKI's movements. The time she took was already longer than the time Huo Ge had taken, which made Lin Xian feel that something was amiss.
"Lin Xian, her breathing is weakening." Chen Sixuan's expression turned anxious.
Ding Junyi looked at the mobile terminal: "His vital signs are not quite normal either."
Upon seeing this, Shiori immediately raised her hands and used her special ability to try to resonate with KIKI, exclaiming in panic, "Her...her special ability seems to be...fading away!?"
"KIKI!" Lin Xian called out.
Standing beside the hibernation pod, Lin Xian stared solemnly at the girl under the canopy. In her eyes, which shimmered with purple starlight vortexes, he sensed a chilling fluctuation of dark energy. At that moment, he inexplicably looked up and seemed to catch a glimpse of the flow of dark energy, which looked very much like the pure energy released by the Hell Black Chrysanthemum after it converted into dark energy.
Lin Xian suddenly thought of something, and his heart skipped a beat. He immediately turned around and looked at the dark energy potential device he had set up not far away. Without saying a word, he raised his hand and pointed.
With a whoosh, in an instant, the protective device he had created was devoured by his machinery and quickly annihilated into ashes.
"Lin Xian, what are you doing?"
"She's going to absorb dark energy!"
As soon as Lin Xian finished speaking, he felt a strange dark energy that had been blocked from the outside suddenly rush into KIKI's eyes. The purple dark light suddenly became dazzling. Just as Lin Xian looked at the light, a powerful force of consciousness pulled him directly into a dark void!
Call ~
Call ~
It felt like falling into an abyss, a strong sense of weightlessness washed over me.
Breaking through the black mist, Lin Xian was suddenly awakened, only to find that the scene before him had completely changed!
The desolate city under the dark clouds of night looked both familiar and strange. On the distant city line, a neat row of signal lights flickered like breathing, highlighting the towering steel defense line that embraced the entire city. The faint light seemed like the flames of war in the human world, exuding a sense of oppression in the solemnity.
On the rooftop of a high-rise building in the city center, Lin Xian opened his eyes and looked at the bizarre existence that resembled a spectacle.
above the sky.
A gigantic humanoid mummy floats in mid-air at a downward angle, blotting out the sun. The torso, with only most of it visible through the clouds, is at least 10 kilometers long when viewed visually!
The giant floating corpse remained motionless, like a floating continent. Its entire body was grayish-black, and one could even clearly see the dry, wrinkled skin like deep valleys. Its dark, empty eyes were devoid of any life, and it floated above the city with an eerie sense of oppression.
A strange whisper sounded in his ear. Lin Xian slowly raised his head and looked into the eyes of the colossal corpse, which seemed to be opening up abysses...
Gazing at him!
