Armored train in the apocalypse

Chapter 275 Battlefield

"call……"

Liang Kuan let out a long breath, and the three-foot-long white dragon slowly dissipated.

Almost instantly, sweat soaked through the entire tactical uniform.

He was like a war machine, radiating terrifying heat in all directions.

The approaching goat shuddered as it felt the heat wave hit it.

"Take care of the wound first."

Liang Kuan looked down at himself and then noticed several bloody holes in his chest.

With a wave of his large, fan-like hand, he ripped off his combat uniform. His muscles rippled, and three deformed bullets were forced out, clattering to the ground.

"Time is running out."

Liang Kuan stepped forward, the rain washing over his burly body, which was steamed by his surging blood and qi, swirling around him.

Upon seeing this, the soldiers quickly made way.

Liang Kuan grabbed the edge of the shield embedded in the troop carrier with one hand, and with a little force, the shield, which even the four evolved beings could not pull off, was pulled out with a screeching sound.

Just then, a whooshing sound of wind suddenly came from the right rear.

A blazing fire dragon swept across hundreds of meters, scorching the rainy night and turning everything a ghastly white.

The faint screams sent chills down one's spine.

The goat was taken aback. "That's..."

"Lin Jin's evolution speed is really fast."

A slightly surprised exclamation and the sound of running breaths reached the goat's ears. Just from that sound, a figure wearing an exoskeleton and running wildly in the rain was already formed in the goat's mind.

"Oh!"

Six octopus-shaped mechanical arms landed in the plaza with the mechanical puppet, then lowered the main body and retracted the mechanical arms that had been embedded in the ground.

"Captain Yu, you're here too?"

The goat looked in shock into the shadows at the edge of the square.

Wearing the [Engineer-II] model, Yu Jing slowly emerged from the rain. Raindrops splashed on her exoskeleton, outlining a ring of cold light, while the orange fluorescent stripes were bright and eye-catching.

"Yeah, I just arrived, I'm still quite a bit later than you guys."

Suddenly, the goat noticed that Yu Yue had appeared behind him at some point, wiping the rain from her forehead with the back of her hand.

The 1.8-meter-long sniper rifle in his hand was tilted downwards, pointing diagonally at his heel.

The "plop plop" sound of wading through water came with the howling wind.

Qu Hang and Lin Jin ran over one after the other. Wherever they passed, the rain was dispersed by the flames. If you looked closely, you could see invisible gusts of wind driving the fire.

The goat was slightly amazed.

I thought they were going to go straight to the point, but their partner was surprisingly helpful.

Within fifteen minutes of the start of the battle, all three groups had arrived.

But this doesn't mean Black Kite is too weak; it just means its configuration is too overpowered.

As a senior battlefield commander, He Jie was certainly not just a barbarian who only knew how to charge into battle with a gun; he had carefully considered all the team assignments.

Liang Kuan possesses second-tier strength, which may be far inferior to that of a true second-tier evolver, but he can easily defeat a first-tier one.

Yu Jing's puppet and Lin Jin's potential both possess combat power capable of reaching the second tier.

However, He Jie remained skeptical of the latter, as Lin Jin's current strength did not reach the second tier. Nevertheless, out of trust in the train conductor, He Jie took a gamble and had him cooperate with Qu Hang.

One controls the wind, the other controls the fire; they can always create some decent teamwork.

Lin Jin gasped for breath, "We arrived just in time."

The goat nodded, then turned and looked carefully at the still enormous theater, half of which had collapsed.

"Captain Yu, can you hear what's going on inside?"

Yu Yue shook her head. "There are people inside, but my abilities are being suppressed by something, so I can't sense them clearly. What about you?"

The goat's eyes were dull and lifeless; "It's dangerous."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Liang Kuan, shirtless, stepped onto the stairs carrying a shield.

"Old Liang is really anxious..."

Yu Yue sighed softly, "He's always been very anxious."

……

Armored train.

Su Leiya sat on the bed in a loose nightgown, comfortably trimming her nails with nail clippers. Every now and then, a muffled bang of a cannon firing would sound outside the train, causing it to lurch violently.

Her snow-white figure was almost bursting out.

"Dong dong."

There was a knock on the dormitory door. Su Leiya raised an eyebrow. "The door isn't locked. Come in."

The door was pushed open, and a fair-skinned man stood in the doorway, his eyes, full of affection, looked as if they were naturally lined.

His eyes narrowed as he looked at Su Leiya's graceful figure on the bed, and he lifted his foot to enter.

"Stand there!"

Su Leiya rolled her eyes at him, then reached out and pulled the long robe next to her over her body.

She snapped, "Are you looking for death? What are you doing here at night instead of staying in your own room?"

The man looked at the spring scenery being obscured and regretfully withdrew his gaze, saying, "Let me see if you've joined the battle."

"What are you thinking? This time we're fighting Black Kite. It's already a miracle they didn't lock us up beforehand, let alone let us participate in the war. I don't even trust myself, let alone the train."

The man's eyes flashed, "We're at least first-tier evolved beings..."

"Stop it." Su Leiya said irritably, "Don't make a big deal out of it. First-tier is only relatively good. In the struggle between behemoths like Black Kite and Armed Train, we are just small ants going with the flow. I'm alive and well now and don't want to die."

The man then laughed and said, "I don't have any weird thoughts, I'm just worried about the future of the train."

Upon hearing this, Su Leiya subconsciously recalled the image of herself kneeling before that tyrant, soaking wet, with eyes that were colder than a flood.

How can he suffer a loss?

This time, Mr. Shu probably exported even his underwear...

She bit her lower lip and suddenly realized that her fingertips had a tingling sensation from excessive tension.

He said coldly, "Just mind your own business. Shu Wei has accepted her fate, so what makes you all so unwilling?"

……

Theater lobby.

Due to its structure, the ceiling of the hall is the floor of the second floor. Although the theater was cut in half, the hall was not completely exposed to the rain.

However, the temporary circuit repairs had all failed, leaving the entire hall dark except for a few glow sticks thrown out by soldiers.

However, this level of lighting is sufficient for the evolved beings.

Jin Yuan unfastened her bulletproof vest and tactical gear, stood up, and stomped her foot.

Dust rolled down.

A soldier ran over quickly and said, "Those two bastards are really tough; they even injured three of us."

A fierce glint flashed in the man's eyes as he stubbed out his cigarette. "The master is inside on business, I'll keep them company myself."

On the Roman columns at the edge of the hall, Bai Lu and his companion, stripped down to only their underwear, were chained to the columns behind them, covered in dust like two mud figures.

The two stood back to back, surrounded by a group of Black Kite special agents.

As soon as the two stood up, someone would kick them down or smash them hard with the butt of a gun.

In the darkness, only the dull thuds of impact could be heard.

"I didn't expect them to be such tough nuts to crack." The man kicked the nearest giraffe, which grunted and flew through the air, crashing into the wall before being pulled back by a rope.

He spat out a mouthful of blood, which fell into the dust on the ground, mixing with the mud.

Bai Lu, standing to the side, barely opened one eye, looking at his brother who was being beaten. His head was buzzing, and he had even lost the ability to think.

Only a surge of evil fire remained, rising and raging within his chest.

But he no longer had the strength to curse. With a mouthful of foul-smelling blood in his mouth, he trembled as he got up and staggered toward the golden-kite man in front of him.

"boom!"

"You only kicked him and forgot to kick you, didn't you?"

Amidst the dizziness, Bai Lu felt a burning sensation on her face and her vision blurred. She dug her fingers into the floor tiles and struggled to her feet. But just as she was halfway up, someone kicked her in the back of the knee, and she fell to her knees with a thud in front of the man with the golden kite.

Bai Lu grabbed the man's boots haphazardly, then pulled on his calf, trying to stand up.

A hint of savagery flashed in the man's eyes, but more than that, there was admiration.

He waved to stop the special agents behind him from making their move, and let Bai Lu grab his clothes and stand up.

The white deer's refined body was covered with bluish-purple and dark marks, and its standing posture was extremely strange, likely due to multiple fractures.

"To tell you the truth, your train conductor will also become one of my Black Kite's people from today onwards. What's the point of you persisting here?"

The man's voice carried a hint of regret.

Bai Lu grabbed his collar tightly to keep herself standing, and then groped his face for a long time, as if to pinpoint his location.

Then a mouthful of blood sprayed onto his face. Like a child, he grinned, revealing his bloodied teeth, and roared with laughter through his throat.

The special agents watched this scene in astonishment.

The man with the golden kite did not fly into a rage, but simply let the blood stream down his face.

"He was a real man, what a pity."

The man with the golden kite held out his hand, and a special operations team member next to him handed him a large, cold blue gun.

It's not just a simple cold weapon; it's more like the electromagnetic sniper rifle that Yu Yue is currently using. The gun is over 2.6 meters long, with an opening at the tip and a symmetrical gun structure at the rear.

The gun features a minimalist design with a technological aesthetic reminiscent of electromagnetic weapons.

Just as he raised his hand, he suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of the gate.

"A bunch of trash."

"I feel so too."

A dull sound, like an ancient bell, crashed into the dilapidated gate.

A burly figure stood in the doorway, almost blocking all the light coming in from outside, the fine raindrops outlining the metallic contours of his muscles.

Upon seeing the white deer and giraffe tied to the pillar, Liang Kuan's eyes darkened further.

"Thanks for your hard work."

As if hearing these words, the white deer grinned and fell backward.

There was a "bang" sound.

Dust rose.

Without any warning, the two imposing figures charged at each other simultaneously!
"boom--"

The spear tip and shield collided with an explosive sound.

Centered on the two people, all the debris was swept away by the terrifying tremors.

The shield in Liang Kuan's hand dented even deeper, and the spear in the man with the golden kite's hand bent into a terrifying arc.

Both were slightly surprised to see that the other had blocked the first attack.

"Second tier!"

But their terrifying fighting spirit only intensified.

The man with the golden kite took a step back and shouted excitedly, "Again!"

The spearhead pierced the air, tearing through the air currents, and went straight for the shield's core!

Liang Kuan let out a low roar, neither dodging nor yielding, and met the attack head-on with his shield. "Clang—!" The sound of metal colliding exploded, and sparks flew everywhere.

The spear tips pressed against the shields, creating blinding sparks. The muscles in their arms clenched like giant pythons, veins bulging, and the sound of blood gushing could be clearly heard.

Liang Kuan behind the shield let out a muffled groan, and bright red blood spurted from his body.

Jin Yuannan noticed this and frowned slightly, but his gunshot became even more ruthless.

He took a half step back, touched the ground with the tip of his spear, used the momentum to leap into the air, and delivered a powerful spear strike from mid-air!
Liang Kuan roared, his muscles like iron blocks, his shoulders and back bulging like a crouching tiger. Instead of retreating, he advanced, his left elbow slamming into the shield.

With a swirl of the shield, it swept across like a collapsing mountain, forcefully deflecting the spear's momentum.

A bullet silently grazed Liang Kuan's ear and headed straight for the man with the golden fin, without even making a sound.

The latter was startled and retreated rapidly, thrusting the tip of his spear sharply.

A burst of light shot into the air.

But before he could catch his breath, a dark blue light shot towards his supporting leg at a tricky angle and with even greater speed.

Liang Kuan, standing directly opposite, was like a metal statue. Suddenly, he freed his right hand and swung it downwards.

As if offering himself up, a special operations team member simply hung his arm around Liang Kuan's neck, his eyes wide with astonishment.

With a single clench of his fist, the special operations team member's eyes bulged out, blood flowed from his seven orifices, and he fell silent instantly.

He casually tossed it aside, then swung his left elbow to the side. A special operations team member holding a military dagger was cut in half as if he had crashed into a dam, hanging on Lao Liang's shoulder like a rag doll.

There was no buffer between extreme stillness and extreme movement, and several melee fighters who rushed up were instantly killed.

The changes in speed were both awe-inspiring and evoked a primal sense of nausea.

It felt like the dizziness caused by seeing images that exceeded the body's limits.

"Ouch!"

A flame suddenly rose into the air, instantly illuminating the entire hall.

Two twisted figures struggled painfully in the flames.

Lin Jin stood behind Liang Kuan, with scattered flames drifting on his wispy hair. His eyes reflected the miserable state of Bai Lu and the other person, and the crimson flames burned fiercely.

"Together!"

Yu Jing's puppet stood next to Liang Kuan.

The latter nodded sullenly, slammed his shield into the ground, and a shockwave exploded, sending debris flying.

It collided with the rain of bullets in mid-air, producing a dense sound like raindrops hitting banana leaves.

"Come again!"

Having become familiar with Qu Hang and Yu Yue's shooting rhythm, the man with the golden kite let out a roar, disrupting Yu Yue's sonic interference, and charged forward again.

The gunfire resumed, like a raging storm, each shot carrying the force to shatter mountains and split the earth.

Liang Kuan's muscles bulged, and his shield seemed alive. Each parry was like a giant wave crashing on the shore, making the spearhead hum and tremble.

Three breaths later, the mechanical puppet that had attacked from behind was slapped away by a spear.

Only two people remained in the arena, like warriors on an ancient battlefield, fighting to the point of madness, having long forgotten what heaven and earth were.

Like a ferocious beast, it turns every part of its body into a weapon to attack its opponent.

The terrifying power turned the flying debris into small-caliber bullets, and even first-tier evolved beings like the goat dared not approach.

Every stomp of his foot and every roar caused the entire building to tremble.

The booming sound of business echoed in the enclosed space, making one's heart pound with fear.

"Get Bai Lu and the other one out of here right now, the house is about to collapse!"

The goat cried out anxiously.
