Everyone has had a hard time in the two months since the end of the world. It is hard to imagine what they have been through to survive until now.

Because they were qualified, and with Lin Qiutang's identity as a guarantee, Shen Qiyin and her group were arranged in the last section of the carriage reserved for qualified people, soldiers and researchers.

This carriage is more comfortable than the previous two, and one does not have to endure the stench caused by the survivors' long-term lack of sanitary conditions, but no survivor will envy the people in this carriage.

Because as combatants, they have to face the dangers they may encounter next.

Whether it is a strange beast wandering at night or an entity hidden in the fog, they need to take action so that the survivors have hope of survival.

Tang Miao lifted up the bulging backpack and pushed it hard into the luggage rack above the carriage.

However, due to lack of strength, the backpack slipped out of her hands and rolled straight out!

Shen Qinyin, who was sitting next to him, had been paying attention to the situation outside the car window and did not notice Tang Miao's mistake at first. Just as she was about to use her telekinesis, a strong arm suddenly stretched out from the side and steadily caught the falling backpack.

Shen Qinyin looked up and was immediately shocked by the scene in front of her.

The owner of the arm was wearing a heavy bulletproof vest, with an explosion-proof shield on his back, and shields welded with steel plates on his chest, arms, thighs, etc.!

These steel plates had a cold metallic luster, were covered with oil stains and scratches, and some even had dents from bullets.

The steel plates were stacked one on top of the other, with cleverly defined spaces for movement at the joints, making slight clinking sounds as he moved.

His thighs were also wrapped in solid steel plates, like two large iron pillars, firmly supporting his tall body.

With a height of nearly two meters and a broad upper body, the man looks like a strong giant bear. The already narrow carriage seems even more cramped and oppressive because of the presence of the middle-aged man.

"Are you the little sister from the Xiaolin family?"

The middle-aged man had a square face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, strong features, and some gray hair. He had an aura of majesty without even being angry.

"Yes," Shen Qiyin nodded slightly, recalling what Lin Qiutang had said to her, and asked tentatively, "Are you Minister Chu?"

"My name is Chu Tieshan," the man said, speaking Mandarin with a strong accent from his hometown. He waved his hand and said, "The military police department is gone, so why call me Minister Chu? You can call me Old Chu or Uncle Chu. There are only a hundred or so military and police officers left alive. They may not survive this night."

Shen Qiyin's eyes dimmed. According to the official data released by Yunlan City, the city had at least 1300 police officers and 600 military police, a force of nearly 2,000 people. Now, there were only a hundred or so left...

It’s no wonder that Lin Qiutang always says that there is not enough manpower, the pressure is too great, and it is difficult to do anything.

She turned her gaze back to Chu Tieshan. His cheeks, the steel plates of his bulletproof vest, and his inner overalls were all stained with mottled rust and oil, as if he had just finished maintaining a green train.

Originally, she thought that the Minister of Military and Police of Yunlan City should be an awe-inspiring and superior leader, but Chu Tieshan's down-to-earth worker image was quite different from her imagination.

"Uncle Chu, this equipment of yours must weigh at least several hundred kilograms, right?" Shen Qiyin asked. "Seeing how effortlessly you use it, if I'm guessing correctly, you should be a qualified person, too."

"Yes, but my abilities are nothing compared to yours. I'm just a little stronger and more sturdy, and I can carry a few tons of luggage. I can't compare to you young people who can fly in the sky and play with fire and electricity."

Chu Tieshan smiled and said, "Little girl, if you have the energy to spare, you can help us later. Of course, you should prioritize your own protection. I won't force you."

"Don't expect too much from me." Shen Qiyin raised the corner of her mouth slightly and said modestly, "You see, although my telekinesis is similar to my sister's, my physical strength is not as good as hers. More importantly, as you know, I am disabled."

"I know, I know, that's why I said I won't force it!"

Chu Tieshan laughed.

After a few seconds, he turned to look at the survivors in the other carriage. The smile on his face was suddenly covered by dark clouds, and his weathered eyes showed anxiety and worry.

His lips moved, and he murmured in a voice that only he could hear: "They are parents to someone, and children to someone. The restoration of order cannot be separated from them."

"call out--"

"boom!"

"call out--"

"Crack!!"

Shen Qinyin was about to speak when several sudden explosions were heard from outside!

The sound was the kind that only large fireworks and firecrackers would make, and it was exceptionally clear even on a rainy night.

Chu Tieshan's face changed almost instantly when he heard the explosion!

He knew exactly what these explosions meant!

Although the soldier on the transport plane said that the black tide would not spread to Yunlan City until tomorrow night, in order to avoid the black tide spreading to Yunlan City in advance, the command center specially advanced the evacuation time by a whole day when formulating the evacuation plan and time.

In addition, considering that the Kuroshio has the characteristic of shielding signals, the command center specially set up more than a hundred sentry posts in Yunlan City, using the ancient beacon tower method of transmitting intelligence and using giant fireworks and firecrackers for intelligence transmission and early warning.

In other words, when they started using this method to transmit signals, it meant that Yunlan City's radio had been completely blocked.

In this current environment, there is only one possibility to accomplish this.

The forward outpost discovered suspected traces of the Kuroshio!

In other words, the Kuroshio Tide is very likely to arrive early!

Chapter 81 The strange beast is raging!

"Looks like the chat time is over."

Chu Tieshan glanced out the window and put on a tightly fitting medieval-style steel helmet, leaving only his eyes exposed.

"Stay in the carriage and don't move. I'll go out and check the situation."

"......Please be careful with it."

Shen Qiyin watched Chu Tieshan leave the green train. The two carriages of survivors in the front, which were already filled with panic, almost jumped into their throats when they heard the sound of firecrackers.

"Qiyin!"

Lin Qiutang, who had been helping to maintain order, boarded the carriage reserved for combatants and quickly came to Shen Qiyin and Tang Miao, saying to them anxiously:

"You all probably heard the fireworks explosion just now, right?"

"I heard it," Shen Qiyin's expression was equally serious. She certainly knew what this meant. "Sister, maybe we should consider leaving immediately."

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!" Lin Qiutang slammed her fist on the table, cold sweat immediately seeping from her forehead, "Did the black tide really come early?! We already reserved a full day in advance, why did this happen..."

"Is the data provided by that soldier wrong?" Tang Miao asked hurriedly, "After all, he also estimated..."

"No, the spread of the Kuroshio Tide was calculated based on the data in the USB drive. The researchers at the command center calculated it over and over again, taking all factors into consideration before finally deciding on the evacuation time.

We also need to prepare trains for evacuation and maintain the railways. No matter how fast we rush, we can't evacuate until six o'clock tomorrow morning at the earliest.

Something must have happened again, and this change is something we can't predict based on the intelligence!"

Just as Shen Qiyin was about to speak, a cry of surprise suddenly came from the survivors' compartment in front of her.

"Look, what are those outside!?"

"Good, lots! Lots of wolves!"

"That's not a wolf..."

The people who heard the noise quickly looked out the window and saw several wolf-like beasts slowly approaching the green train at the edge of the fog outside the station.

These beasts are completely black, with no organs on their heads. Even their ears seem to be imitated from reference creatures, growing wildly together with the muscles on their heads.

Some even grow on the front of the head, and from a structural point of view, they cannot provide hearing at all.

"It's a strange beast."

Shen Qiyin's eyes dimmed, and the power of her third eye was activated, allowing her to see through the true identities of those beasts at a glance.

Those strange beasts imitated wild wolves, opened their mouths and howled towards the sky, but they seemed to lack vocal organs, so they did not make any sound at all.

"Whoosh!!"

Suddenly, one after another fierce fireballs broke through the air from behind the train, and the moment they came into contact with the strange beasts, they turned into a raging sea of ​​fire and completely engulfed them!

Shen Qiyin turned her gaze towards the direction where the fireball came from, and saw a young man holding a long sword with flowing flames in his right hand, and flames rising in his left hand. There was no doubt that the previous attack was initiated by him.

Those with offensive skills would have no difficulty dealing with these low-level monsters, but the difficulty lies in the fact that these monsters cannot be killed.

As expected, less than ten seconds after the several strange beasts that were burned to ashes disappeared, more strange beasts emerged from the fog!

A dozen beast-like monsters seemed to have a sense of each other. They sprinted and approached each other. The moment their bodies touched, their limbs and flesh immediately began to strangely fuse!

Vertebrae broke out from their respective backs and twisted together madly, forming a strange spiral torso. The original head was now split into a chrysanthemum-shaped serrated mouthpart, and the sharp teeth were faintly visible in the firelight.

As it got closer, the soldiers could even hear the creepy, sticky sliding sound of flesh and blood wriggling irregularly, as if countless slugs were rolling around in the abdominal cavity.

"boom!!"

The young man who had attacked earlier concentrated his mind and released a blazing flame that was far more powerful than his last attack!

A fierce pillar of fire rose from the feet of the fused monster and engulfed it in the blink of an eye, but the monster still maintained its pace forward in the raging fire and seemed unaffected.

The young man couldn't help but frown when he saw this scene. He simply raised the flaming long sword in his hand and rushed towards the opponent!

"Break!"

The fire knife tore through the air, making a sizzling sound like barbecue. The moment the blade touched the skin of the strange beast, the flesh that looked soft turned out to be as hard as steel!

"clang!!"

A powerful recoil force came along the blade, causing the young man's palm to go numb and the long sword in his hand to almost slip out of his hand!

"Fire, free fire!"

A leader named Wang Meng roared and led the soldiers to pull the trigger. Hundreds of bullets suddenly rushed towards the monster like a rainstorm!

However, the 7.62mm steel core bullet could only create sparks on the skin of the monster and could not hurt the opponent at all!

"Boom!!"

Suddenly, the strange beast stomped its foot hard, and the floor under everyone's feet suddenly shook violently, as if something was swimming beneath the surface!

In the blink of an eye, the ground exploded, and several sharp flesh spikes covered with slime broke through the soil, about to pierce the group of soldiers into skewers.

"Buzz!"

At the critical moment, the soldiers' bodies were lifted up by a force out of thin air and thrown backwards. The spikes narrowly grazed their clothes, leaving only a tiny wound on their skin.

Immediately afterwards, snow-white bullets tore through the air, and the light that bloomed along the way was like the trail left by a meteor across the night sky, accurately hitting the head of the strange beast!

These bullets seemed to be able to cause devastating damage to the strange beasts. The moment they hit, they would leave fist-sized holes in the strange beasts' invulnerable and iron-hard shell!

As the light flickered, the holes seemed to burn and expanded rapidly until the entire body of the strange beast was completely engulfed in snow-white flames!

Shen Qinyin stood in the air, turned the exorcist holy spear in her hand twice, and put it back to her waist.

Lin Qiutang, floating beside her, decisively gave the order: "Everyone, get on board! Leave immediately, we'll lead the way!"

The soldiers looked at each other, seeming a little hesitant.

Their mission was to hold the station and protect the survivors until the train departed.

There are still several hours before the scheduled departure point. If the train leaves early, those survivors who have not yet arrived at the station will be in trouble.

"I heard you all! Everyone, get in the car immediately, we're leaving!"

At this moment, Chu Tieshan's voice as deep as a bell echoed on the platform.

He was nearly two meters tall and wore steel armor weighing several hundred kilograms. He looked like a giant bear in armor. When he walked, even the ground shook with his footsteps.

The leader, Wang Meng, said worriedly, "But Captain, according to the previous radio message, there are at least a dozen survivors on the way. If we leave early, I'm afraid they..."

"We can't care about so many things anymore. We are responsible for the majority of people!"

Chu Tieshan rudely interrupted him and gave the order in a decisive tone:

"Everyone aboard! Qualified personnel from Special Investigation Teams 1 and 2, follow the original plan and lead the way with me!"

Chapter 82 Evil Forces

"Let's go! Close the door!!"

Following Chu Tieshan's order, the driver of the green train roared and pulled down the air valve!

The engine began to roar, and the green train began to vibrate convulsively on the rails. The rims rubbed against the rails with a clanging sound, and sparks flew everywhere, illuminating the old and mottled car body.

Shen Qinyin used her telekinesis to float above the carriage, her third eye "staring" at the extremely thick fog ahead. Lin Qiutang began to use her telekinesis and concentrate her mind to drive away the fog surrounding the green train.

"Pap, tap, tap..."

The sound of footsteps like sticky tentacles hitting the ground came from the fog in all directions. Shen Qinyin clearly felt that the presence of the train attracted all kinds of unknown creatures wandering in the fog. One after another, strange beasts of various shapes kept approaching the train.

"Keep the formation!"

Chu Tieshan stood on top of the locomotive, holding a specially tempered and reinforced explosion-proof shield in his left hand and a specially made meteor hammer in his right hand!

The pure steel armor he was wearing weighed several hundred pounds, and with the heavy explosion-proof shield and the meteor hammer weighing also several hundred pounds in his hand, he looked as indestructible as a hill when he stood at the front of the car.
