Armored train in the apocalypse

Chapter 41 Sword and Shield
Su Huan directly pocketed the Pan-Energy Crystal.

In situations like these, concentrating resources on one person is more effective than dispersing them.

"There will be more zombies for you to extract later, but let's get the river crabs out first. We might be able to have a river crab feast tonight." Su Huan sniffed the distinctive fishy smell of river crabs in the air.

Wan Xing picked out the tender meat from the crab claws and placed it on the counter. She nodded and said, "That's about right. This crab has been processed for a long time."

Turning around, Liang Kuan had already put on a work jacket and tactical boots, and took a riot shield off the wall.

Su Huan rubbed his chin. "I suggest you find the most comfortable weapon, as this could very well affect your future skills and profession."

Unlike other evolved beings, defenders have a large proportion of weapon-specialized skills.

It's like a defender of a "firepower" talent; if you make him play with melee weapons every day, it's a miracle he can evolve.

In his previous life, Liang Kuan became famous with a short stick; he was fierce and ruthless.

Liang Kuan weighed the riot shield in his hand but didn't put it down. Then he picked out a handy baton from the wall.

It swung twice in the air, emitting a powerful whistling sound.

"That's fine then," Liang Kuan said with a hint of regret.

"You want firearms?"

"No, I don't know how to use it."

"You can tell Yu Jing what kind of cold weapons you need later, and she can design them and then have Xiao Ba sculpt them for you." Su Huan put on an ice silk coat.

Liang Kuan touched both sides of the riot shield. "I think this thing is very handy, but it would be better if the sides were a bit sharper."

Su Huan raised an eyebrow, "Sword and shield?"

……

after an hour.

A dozen or so zombies pounded on the iron door of carriage number 2, making a loud banging sound, but apart from leaving a few bloody handprints on it, they did nothing.

Suddenly, the iron-black gate opened inward.

The zombies, who had been somewhat scattered, suddenly became interested and swarmed forward, trying to climb onto the train.

"boom!"

A huge tactical boot was kicked out.

The head of the first zombie was kicked off and it fell backward.

A meter-long metal shield crashed down with a terrifying whooshing sound, accompanied by the crisp sound of a watermelon breaking open. The three nearest zombies all fell under the car.

A burly figure squeezed out of the carriage; even through his coat, one could feel his massive muscles and imposing presence.

His short hair was like steel needles, and his beard was like armor plastered to his cheeks.

He twisted his neck, picked up the shield that looked like a giant axe, and charged down.

"Bang bang bang-"

A series of rapid slapping sounds mingled with the low, whimpering growls of zombies.

A young man with rosy lips and white teeth walked out, squinted at the sky, and exclaimed, "The weather is really nice today, perfect for starting work."

A chilling aura emanated from his body, and the temperature of over thirty degrees Celsius could not get close to his body at all.

Although low temperatures waste energy, temperatures in the thirties would have a huge impact on his reactions and body, so saving that little bit of energy would be a losing proposition.

Su Huan jumped out of the car, and Xiao Ba's wheelchair behind him floated up into the air and slowly fell down.

Looking at Liang Kuan, who was surrounded by more and more zombies in the distance, Xiao Ba's eyes showed a hint of worry, "Are you sure you don't need any help?"

Su Huan glanced at him. "Of course... no way. Who's going to drive if Lao Liang gets killed?"

While the two were talking, Liang Kuan had already rushed far away, single-handedly taking on dozens of ordinary zombies.

Although his fighting style was fierce and aggressive, the zombies were not afraid of pain.

As long as they aren't crippled all at once, they'll always get back up.

Each zombie weighs at least 130 or 140 pounds. Even with Liang Kuan's superhuman strength, he's starting to feel exhausted after killing more than a dozen. "Pfft!"

A sharp spike suddenly extended from the metal shield, helping Liang Kuan to kill one of the attackers.

There was a commotion behind them, and many of the zombies that had been left behind caught up. There were also many mangled bodies struggling to crawl out from under the car.

Su Huan snapped his fingers, attracting Xiao Ba's attention.

"I'll go over to Liang Kuan's side. You clear out the zombies behind you and set up temporary defenses. We'll get off here today."

"Hmm!" Xiao Ba nodded heavily, a rich metallic glint appearing in his eyes. In the next instant, the triangular metal strip on the side of the armored train seemed to erupt, suddenly extending more than three meters of metal surface.

Like a giant knife, it directly shredded more than a dozen zombies.

Su Huan shook his head and muttered, "Incredibly fierce..."

Xiao Ba's combat power is almost at the first tier. If he were on the train, he could easily fight off all the first tier zombies with his level 1 "Metal Control".

Su Huan walked forward, his high-temperature blasts reaping the zombies at his feet that were unable to get up due to broken bones.

Bones were broken and tendons were torn, and blood was splattered everywhere.

There was only a faint smell of burning here.

When he got to Liang Kuan's side, he simply stopped pretending and didn't even raise his hand. High-temperature bullets flew out of his exposed skin in all directions.

He easily slaughtered hordes of ordinary zombies.

Currently, its energy conversion efficiency is 20%, which means that for the same high-temperature bomb, it can save half the energy.

In addition, I have been absorbing polyenergetic crystals recently, which has greatly increased my body's energy.

Killing all these zombies is more than enough.

Liang Kuan stood holding his shield, looking at the zombies falling around him like wheat, a hint of awe flashing in his eyes.

"Did you feel anything during the fight just now?"

Su Huan asked casually.

Liang Kuan hesitated for a moment, "It feels great, but not great enough."

Su Huan raised an eyebrow. "Then I'll find you some more exciting opponents. Let's go."

Liang Kuan quickly followed.

The two walked forward along the railway tracks.

Yu Yue had previously deduced that there was a train 500 meters ahead.

The acceleration and braking just now took at least 300 meters, so the train should be not far away.

We need to move him out of the way in advance, otherwise he'll block the road and the armed train won't be able to move.

After making a sharp turn, we finally saw the train ahead.

The surrounding area was littered with various debris and corpses, many of which had been gnawed to pieces and had no chance of turning into zombies.

Scattered zombies began to swarm in.

Su Huan patted Liang Kuan's blood-stained shoulder, making a sticky gurgling sound, and wore a wicked smile with a double meaning, "Go have some fun."

Liang Kuan's face twitched, and he picked up his large shield and rushed forward.

Su Huan followed behind him, leisurely observing every detail.

Occasionally, a high-temperature bomb is used to alleviate the opponent's crisis.

This allowed Liang Kuan to fight more and more smoothly, so he simply abandoned the defensive function of the shield and used it directly as a large axe. Su Huan then devoted some of his attention to helping him fill in the gaps and make up for any mistakes.

The two men charged straight to the side of the train.
