My Doomsday Train.

Chapter 243 "00:29:59".

Its daybreak.

Last night was Christmas Eve.

The Stellar Train is located in the wasteland of the "Crisis Valley", next to two level 2 iron mines. A group of residents have already started working hard with pickaxes, but everyone's face is full of anxiety, and the pickaxes are almost flying.

It is really.
There are too many residents and too few mines.

If you don't rush to dig, you won't dig enough.

When there are too many wolves and too little meat, internal competition is inevitable.

"call"

Chen Mang also stretched comfortably and got up from the bed. He went into the refrigerator to wash up, then lit a cigarette and sat in a chair to check today's "train log".

This is almost one of his daily routines.

Get up for a morning cigarette, then check the train log to see what happened last night while he was asleep.

The train log records it in great detail.

as usual.

The residents have already started working, and a team of guards and 80 armed robots have begun patrolling and guarding the area to prevent monsters from approaching. The remaining guards are completing ordinary tasks in the "Combat Training Virtual Space" to complete those maps.

There was another serving of rice noodle rolls on the table, which was put there by Xiaofang.

Everything is almost the same as yesterday.

This kind of fixed and boring life would definitely be boring before the end of the world, but after the end of the world, it gives people an inexplicable sense of peace.

In addition to bringing boredom, stability can also bring peace of mind.

"Good."

Chen Mang casually took two bites of rice noodle rolls and put the uneaten ones aside. He was a little tired of eating this stuff. There were still too few food choices on the train. He wanted to see if he could set up a food production line to enrich the variety.

Look out the window.

The weather is nice today, with clear skies and a hint of warmth in the cool air.

He then took the little green one who was sleeping quietly beside him in his arms and rubbed it. You know what, this furry thing was really cute and comfortable to hold in his arms, making people unable to resist grabbing it.

"Starry sky beast?"

He lifted Little Green up in the air and looked at him carefully again before muttering, "I really can't see the slightest sign of a giant star beast. I wonder what you'll be like when you grow up."

When the train reaches level 12, the little guy will wake up.

By then, he will no longer be eating unconsciously, but will need to be actively fed. Hopefully, he won't consume too many of his resources.
Then he looked at the iron ore balance, which was still 901 million units.

Once these two level 3 mines are mined, the train capacity can be expanded.

Time passes slowly.

Nothing happened that day.

Chen Mang sat lazily in the train, basking in the sun, and watched movies all day long on a chair. They were all old movies. He had basically watched all the movies he collected last time, so he watched them again.

When you get tired of looking, you can take a walk around the other carriages.

I went to carriage No. 5 and played with the sandwich burger for a while to release some tension.

I went to carriage No. 7 again and talked with Lao Zhu Biaozi and others for a while.

He also went to Car No. 10 and looked at the undeveloped "Entertainment Base" and pondered for a while before deciding to use the Mechanical Heart to build an amusement park for everyone, such as a whole roller coaster or something. Regardless of whether others play or not, he wanted to play.

He had wanted to play since he was a child, but he was an orphan and no one took him to play. When he grew up, he was a little embarrassed to play. Such a small thing actually became a regret in his previous life, and he had to find an opportunity to satisfy it in this life.

He took another look at the filming progress at the "Film and Television Base" and gave a few casual instructions.

Finally, we went to carriage No. 11. Under the guidance and proud introduction of Doba, we inspected the territory of the goblins. It was simple enough, but looked well organized. We asked about Mondo's progress and learned that he was still out doing business and had not returned yet.

When I returned to the train room, I passed by carriage No. 5 and played the game of "Double Phoenix Pecking Rice" for a while.

It was almost evening.

The two level 2 iron mines have basically been mined out, with nearly 3 residents mining together, and the efficiency is extremely high.

But a lot of bandages were wasted.

Many residents were hit hard on their bodies, feet, and heads by other residents with pickaxes. This is because they ate a lot of bread and cola on a daily basis, and their overall physical fitness was still good, otherwise they would have died tonight.

"call"

It's already night.

Standing inside the train, Chen Mang looked out at the scene outside where work was winding down. He stretched lazily and muttered contentedly, "What a fulfilling day! Being a good conductor isn't easy. You have to take care of every corner and every aspect."

Basically, there were not many slaves in each train. The one with the most slaves he encountered was that of a gentleman, which had only more than 1200 slaves.

When the number of slaves is very small, their efficiency doubles when their numbers increase. However, when their number increases, the weakening effect of the increased efficiency becomes very obvious.

His train may be the one with the largest number of survivors in all the blue zones.

As for the entire planet, there are definitely more than him.

After all, there are 5000 million trains.

at this time--

Suddenly, a white light flashed inside the train, and then Xiao Ai's voice was heard: "Conductor."

"Ok?"

"You patrolled the train today, inspecting almost every area. When you passed Car 14, you even stood in the aisle and admired the ground-burst missile for quite a while."

"What's wrong? Is there a problem? Don't you think it's cool to see a missile lying safely in the car? Is there anything wrong with looking at it for a while longer?"

"No, but you, the conductor, passed by Car 2 twice and never thought of going into the Armored Research Center to see me."

"Um"

The corners of Chen Mang's mouth twitched slightly. He immediately picked up the cane beside him and stood up and walked towards the No. 2 carriage connected to the back of the train room: "I'll go and check it out."

Is it because he upgraded the "Train Assistance AI" too high?

The last time he upgraded the AI ​​to level 100, it seemed that the AI's thinking ability became stronger and stronger.

soon.

When Chen Mang pushed the door open, he saw a screen on each of Xiao Ai's cheeks, with the words "self-confidence" and "proud" appearing on each. Her face was full of pride as she stood next to an instrument he had never seen before.

"What is this instrument?" He moved his gaze from Xiao Ai to the instrument, looking it up and down. It looked like a huge meat grinder, but a little too big. It was a cylinder with a diameter of about ten meters!

The whole body is made of steel.

Only one side is glass, so you can clearly see the internal structure of the instrument.

There is a steel pipe in the middle of the cylinder, on which are inlaid countless turning blade fragments. Those turning blade fragments are all level 100. It is no exaggeration to say that they can cut iron like mud and break hair like blowing away wind.

Obvious.

As long as this instrument is started, the meat grinder will grind anything that falls into it into minced meat.

"How about it?"

Xiao Ai proudly introduced, "This is what I've been working on for 22 hours, from last night until today. Last night, I did some simple deductions based on the data in my database, and Uncle Li's idea for the 'zombie spawner' has a success rate of about 0.9%."

"The information in the database tells me that this kind of thing can't happen."

"but"

"I've already built this meat grinder in advance. It'll serve as a follow-up process instrument for the 'Zombie Spawner'. It can grind all the zombies into minced meat. I've also connected this 'meat grinder' to the red instrument 'Cosmic Receiver' via a pipe."

"This meat grinder doesn't just grind meat. There's a giant piston on top, like a straw. Once it successfully minces a tank of zombies, it squeezes them hard, forcing all the core energy out of the zombies. It then flows through the pipes to the cosmic receiver, where it's converted into iron ore, which then forms a corresponding amount of iron ore in the space gate across the way."

"I've got everything ready. Once Uncle Li's 'Zombie Spawner' is complete, we can start it right away!"

"sure"

After listening to Xiao Ai's introduction, Chen Mang was a little surprised and said, "Not having to sleep is good. You finished such a large meat grinder in one day. You relied on yourself to make such a large instrument. You are superman."

"Of course I'm not alone."

Xiao Ai shook her head, and then more than a dozen robots crawled out of the meat grinder, and dozens of robots poked their heads out from behind the "space receiver". Some people who were modifying mecha machines stood up from the elevated platform nearby.

"To be exact, 198 people. Some of the robots we brought back from 7 meters underground were in a scrapped state. I disassembled the parts and reassembled them, and finally repaired 197 robots. Including this one I originally had, that makes 198 robots."

"What's the source of power for this engine of yours?"

"Connected to the generator through the circuit system, consuming energy stones."

"Where's the engine?"

"Tear down the engine of a dirt bike."

"I remember I haven't upgraded this part. It's only level 1. Is the speed not fast enough?"

"Yes, a little, but it's barely enough."

Chen Mang shook his head and immediately spent 17.5 units of iron ore to upgrade the yellow-grade component "Off-Road Motorcycle Production Line" to level 20 before continuing, "It just reached level 20. The speed should be enough now."

"I'll change it later."

"What's that mecha under the elevated platform over there?"

"Biaozi and the others' mechas are a bit too low-level. They're not enough for the Blue Zone. Biaozi's physical fitness isn't good enough to use the Thunder mecha yet. They're modifying it over there, welding him a more advanced armor."

"Ah."

"One more thing, conductor. I brought back a lot of robots last time, and I disassembled many of them. I finally found the section in this robot that allows AI to host it. Now I can go to Neon City with you."

"Oh?"

Chen Mang raised his eyebrows slightly. "That's a good thing. With your supermodel ability to hack into the network, we can freely enter many forbidden areas in Neon City. But if you go to Neon City and the train is attacked, can you still carry out the established orders and fight back?"

"Yes, it might not be possible if it's level 10, but at level 100, it can definitely be split in two, and the main AI is still executing the established defense and counterattack orders within the train."

"Very good. Let's prepare in the next few days and set off in a few days to head to Neon City again."

"Yes!"

Chen Mang returned to the train room, sat on the chair again, and breathed a sigh of relief. Xiao Ai brought him a lot of information in one breath. This guy is becoming more and more like a human being, and he even knows how to take credit.

If it was in the past when the level was still lower, such things would be directly relayed through the audio system in the train room.

Instead of saying resentfully that you didn't go to see yourself.

The two level 3 iron mines have been completely mined, and the resources in the train have arrived, 1421.5 million units of iron ore.

The level 100 "Solar Energy Panel" is enough to cover the daily consumption of the train and can bring in an additional 18 units of iron ore per day.

There are 14 carriages and a locomotive in total.

The price of the expansion is 1400 million units.

Chen Mang immediately sat on the chair and pressed the "train expansion" button again, adjusting the parameters to a carriage of 10 meters wide, 30 meters long, and 10 meters high.

next moment--

A line of words appeared on the console screen.
-
"The train capacity will be expanded after the countdown ends. Before that, please ensure everyone is off the train to prevent any accidents."

"00:29:59".
-
Do I need to leave the car?
Chen Mang didn't say much. He just picked up the cane beside him and walked out of the train with Xiaolu in his arms. Then all the screens in the train lit up and a harsh warning sounded throughout the train.

And Xiao Ai's mechanical electronic sound rang out quickly.

"The train is about to be upgraded. All residents are requested to leave the train in an orderly manner. Residents of residential blocks 1 and 2 should leave the train first. Residents of the remaining residential blocks should stay in their respective residential blocks. Please do not move around."

Although the number of residents is large.

But as the hundreds of heavy machine guns on the ceiling began to slowly rotate and turn, as if they were eager to find an inconspicuous place to attack, all the residents obediently did what they were told.

The level 100 "Built-in Fire Control System" may seem useless, but it's actually not completely useless. Without these hundred machine guns, the residents wouldn't be so obedient.

The train is too small.

The train door is too small. The movement of more than 6000 residents in the carriage is a bit too crowded. It is indeed time to expand the capacity. Although the area inside the space gate is large enough, people cannot stay in the space gate all the time. After going to the residents' store, you will be squeezed all over and sweat!

soon--

All the residents on the train, including the creatures in the breeding car, were taken down. At this time, there was no living creature on the Star.

Everyone stood still, looking at the Star Train in front of them.

in the distance.

It is a line of defense laid out by a group of black hole armed robots and guards.

Uncle Li, who was leading various cattle, sheep, pigs, even a man and a large number of zombies with iron chains, became the focus of the crowd. Many residents looked at Uncle Li with curiosity. There were many new people on the train, and many of them had never seen Uncle Li at all. However, the old people knew that Uncle Li had recorded the star tickets for them for a period of time.

But he soon lost his job.
