Train Survival: One colored hexagon per level!

Timo looked at Lu Xingyuan with some worry:

"Uh...it seems the boss failed."

He knew that Lu Xingyuan had spent a lot of money buying Stardust from the trading channel.

"fine."

Lu Xingyuan, on the other hand, took it all in stride.

Although it wasn't the material he wanted, the Crimson Vein Crystal was still of extraordinary value.

He spent a lot of money buying stardust, but as long as he has the Deformation and Reconstruction Device, he will never lose money.

"We can continue next time."

Lu Xingyuan made up his mind that he would gather all five materials no matter what and activate the unknown ticket.

After all, it's highly likely that it's related to Sister Shou.

"Let's put this Crimson Vein Crystal in the warehouse."

"Okay."

Timo took it and huffed and puffed his way to the warehouse.

But just then—BOOM!

A deafening roar erupted, the train began to shake violently, and the red warning lights flashed wildly.

Timo quickly grabbed the handrail beside him to steady himself and prevent himself from falling.

But Rambo wasn't so lucky; he fell flat on his face, hitting his head hard and getting a big bump!

"Holy crap! Which bastard did this?"

He has a bad temper and started cursing in a hoarse voice!

This is clearly an enemy attack!

Someone is attacking their train!

However, the thick fog outside made it impossible for him to spot the enemy attackers!

Lu Xingyuan decisively activated the vehicle-mounted drone nest.

Three folding drones immediately flew out of the honeycomb-shaped launch cells.

With the help of the accompanying electronic goggles, Lu Xingyuan could clearly see the figures of the enemy attackers.

With its green skin, pointed snout, thin frame, and lewd face, isn't this a goblin?

One of the goblins was carrying a rocket launcher on its shoulder, presumably the one that launched the attack on the train.

Fortunately, the train's durability was high enough; otherwise, that rocket would have probably blown it to smithereens.

Rambo also saw clearly through his goggles and couldn't help but exclaim "Holy crap!" again.

"Are goblins using rocket launchers these days?"

After firing the first round of shots, the goblin carrying the rocket launcher did not stop. With the help of the goblin beside him, he quickly finished reloading.

It adjusted its direction, locked onto the train's engine, and prepared to launch the second round of firing.

But at that moment, Lu Xingyuan's drone launched an attack from overhead.

A hail of bullets rained down, turning them into sieves.

The second rocket ultimately failed to launch as intended.

Although the train had high durability, Lu Xingyuan couldn't bear to see it ruined by the enemy.

These three goblins are not weak, but unfortunately, any attack launched by Lu Xingyuan, regardless of its form, can trigger the Collector's effect.

Execute! Execute! Execute!

The only downside was that the three-headed goblin only dropped one train coin.

The drop rate isn't exactly low, but it's definitely not very high either.

Fortunately, goblins have an incredibly high reproductive rate, so there's never a worry about them not having enough numbers.

Using the drone, Lu Xingyuan quickly noticed the continuous stream of goblin reinforcements arriving.

Unlike the goblins we usually see, their shapes are incredibly diverse.

What's visible beneath the green skin isn't muscle, but a rusted alloy skeleton.

Each goblin was crudely welded with various cybernetic aliens.

Some are robotic arms salvaged from abandoned robots, with colorful cables exposed at the joints; others are cheap optical lenses embedded in eye sockets, with a cloudy eyeball behind the lens spinning wildly, its focus constantly off; still others have had their entire arms crudely replaced with hydraulic press clamps, with three thick exhaust pipes inserted into their backs, emitting a puff of black smoke with every step.

The goblin's most classic weapon—the spiked club—was not discarded, but it was modified from a circuit board, with an unstable current flickering at the top.

Rambo saw it too, and only then did he realize that the goblin wielding the rocket launcher was just a junior among them!

In a matter of moments, thousands of cyber goblins completely surrounded the train.

Without uttering a single unnecessary word, they launched a fierce attack.

In an instant, a roar like steelmaking tore through the air, and thousands of solid armor-piercing rounds transformed into streaks of dark red light that were indistinguishable to the naked eye. Like a herd of mad bulls, they slammed into the train's armor belt, emitting a continuous stream of orange sparks and metallic hum, enveloping the entire train in the trembling heat of the rivets.

But this is only the prelude.

The next second, a deadly shriek fell from the sky as three propellant rockets, trailing pale white ion contrails, crashed heavily onto the vehicle like comets.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The blazing fireball expanded instantly, and the shockwave blew the nearest cyber goblin away along with its metal armor. The armor plates were torn open with charred cracks, and the thick smoke was mixed with the acrid smell of burning circuitry.

Before the smoke of battle had cleared, the reckless cyber goblin guards swarmed up like ants.

Hydraulic chainsaws and electromagnetic saw axes, humming loudly, were tearing at the already battered exterior of the carriage. The sharp sounds of metal scraping, the cracking of gears breaking, and the electronic laughter of the prosthetic monsters coming from their voice changers were all intertwined.

The train was shaking violently and continuously, and its durability was decreasing little by little.

Lu Xingyuan sneered and sat down at the control panel.

A fingertip slammed down on the fire control panel—vehicle-mounted howitzer, now authorized!

The next second, a devastating sound suddenly erupted.

The high-explosive shell roared out of the muzzle at an initial velocity too fast for the naked eye to detect, leaving trails of scorching orange-red in the air.

At the point of impact, the densest formation of cyber goblins was instantly engulfed by the sea of ​​fire.

boom!

boom!

boom!

The continuous explosions sounded like thunder, and fireballs tens of meters high shot into the sky, tearing those slender metal bodies into alloy fragments flying everywhere.

Some were blown away by the shockwave into silhouettes, some exploded into reddish-brown cooling mist in mid-air, and some were torn into pieces by fragments that clattered and fell onto the scorched earth.

The screams of electronic beings, the cracking of metal, and the explosions of overloaded prosthetics converged into a frenzied symphony at that moment.

"That felt great! That felt so good!"

Lambo, watching from the side, was incredibly excited.

He knew that Lu Xingyuan had spent a full thousand train tickets on this vehicle-mounted howitzer!

The rotating magazine was already packed full of high-explosive shells. As long as Lu Xingyuan gave the fire control command, the chain feeder would continuously push the heavy shells into the breech.

In just a few moments, the entire platform was reduced to ruins engulfed in flames.

Only a few scattered green figures remained, still twitching uncontrollably.
