Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train-Chapter 168 - 163: The Fire Isn’t Big Enough (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)
Chapter 168: Chapter 163: The Fire Isn’t Big Enough (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)
"What does that mean?"
Lin Xian’s gaze turned to the peculiar Disaster Plant. Previously, he hadn’t paid much attention to it, but now, following Ding Junyi’s reminder, he realized that the flower indeed... had become redder.
"It’s not your illusion." As if guessing what Lin Xian was about to say, Ding Junyi picked up a mobile terminal and pulled up some comparative data, handing it over to Lin Xian.
"The red glow, the opening and closing of the flower’s core—there’s a significant change."
Lin Xian examined the surveillance comparisons on the mobile terminal, frowning.
"So what does this signify? The flower has bloomed?"
Ding Junyi adjusted his glasses: "From the time the Number One Blood Calamity Disaster Plant was sent to the lab until it left the Underground City, it did not undergo any change for 21 days. The first transformation occurred the night we left the ninth Underground City, I initially thought it was a sign of a growth phase, but it wasn’t. Just last night, after we left Yu Bei Airport, its core had greatly opened and closed, and the red glow emanating increased by at least 50%."
Lin Xian was puzzled: "Then what?"
"That’s it." Ding Junyi’s hand in his pocket, he calmly continued: "The Number One Blood Calamity Disaster Plant is a valuable asset on the train, I needed to inform you about this situation. If you want me to analyze further, I can only say there are many speculations."
"Like what you just said, it truly might be a sign of the plant maturing, I tend to agree with that assessment. However, these two transformations are associated with major events we’ve experienced, and since the change in the red glow isn’t continuous and predictable, there are other conjectures, such as it being related to environmental changes or possibly linked with Abnormal Bodies and dark energy."
Lin Xian nodded, casting a glance at the Hell Black Chrysanthemum: "As long as it does not turn into a monster on the train, it seems acceptable."
After that, Lin Xian seemed to recall something urgently, quickly heading to the first carriage, immediately taking out a bottle of water from a storage cabinet.
This water was bottled by Chen Sixuan using a water purifier before entering Yu Bei City, intending to test the Heterogeneous Rubik’s Cube’s shielding effect against the dark invasion forces. However, after entering Yu Bei City and encountering a series of troubles, he had forgotten about this matter.
Opening the bottled water, Lin Xian directly tested it with a water quality detector.
Drip.
A green light lit up on the detector and Lin Xian’s eyebrows immediately raised.
"Indeed!"
Lin Xian looked at the Heterogeneous Rubik’s Cube placed on the wall with a gleaming gaze: "It can shield the polluting power of the dark invasion; indeed, it’s a Divine Artifact. If so, even with many people on the train, we shouldn’t worry about anyone getting infected by the Fallen and causing chaos from within."
Relieved, Lin Xian checked the time and returned to the cockpit ready to set off.
"Everyone pay attention, those zombie crows are frightened by fire, later on, don’t fire any guns so as not to rouse more. Just close the windows and follow the Infinity."
Lin Xian announced this to everyone through the convoy’s intercom channel.
"Received." Everyone responded in unison.
"Lu Xingchen, it’s your time to shine."
When he heard that zombie crows were scared of fire, Lin Xian first thought of Lu Xingchen. Shu Qin’s convoy didn’t have any flamethrowers, using guns on these creatures was a complete waste of bullets and the sound of gunfire could also trigger a chain reaction.
"Afraid of fire? Hehehe, fire is the nemesis of all demons and spirits in this world, I am appointed to cleanse these monsters, don’t worry, I’ll take action."
KIKI and others listening to the narcissistic voice over the intercom couldn’t help but frown deeply.
"This guy is too vain."
Inside the fifth carriage, Building heard Lu Xingchen’s words over the intercom and couldn’t help but look up at him speechlessly.
At this moment, Lu Xingchen was standing in front of a large mirror, continuously posing various moves.
"Divine·Cross Fire!" Lu Xingchen made a gesture with his fingers crossed in front of the mirror, then continued adjusting: "No, this won’t do..."
Then he moved the cross in front of his left eye: "Seems a bit sleazy."
Then again, he placed it on his chest, still dissatisfied: "Too sinister, it doesn’t suit my style."
So, he simply spread his hands making a crossing motion again, but upon seeing himself in the mirror, he couldn’t help but click his tongue.
"Why is it getting more flamboyant!"
"Change it, change it..."
Building: "..."
Bang.
The iron gate of the maintenance workshop opened, and the Infinity slowly pulled out two trains, the rusty tracks making a whining sound. At this time, the seven cars on Shu Qin’s side also started their engines, the people inside looking tense, beginning to move out from the driveway, then turning onto the track at the junction.
The Circular Star Main Track uses a wide hard metal track surface, with some sections capable of direct electromagnetic acceleration and magnetic levitation, making driving on it almost as smooth as walking, without much pressure.
Gaga~
The quivering sound of the tracks instantly startled a large flock of black Zombie Crows from beneath the hillside, taking flight like a cloud of black dust, swarming towards the direction of the train.
"Everyone, pay attention, speed up, cars at the back just keep up and don’t fall behind, we’ll find a way to deal with the crows!"
Woo~
The motor of the Gemini 11R nuclear power electric locomotive began to roar, accompanied by the internal combustion engines of the giant whale gas turbines speeding up frantically!
On the other side, Lin Xian had already arranged for Lu Xingchen to take position at the rear of the train, responsible for covering the vehicles behind.
Thud thud thud~
The startled Zombie Crows started flying crazily towards the front of the Infinity, and in an instant, black feathers and flesh exploded all around, the crows screeching noisily as they flew suicidally towards the train.
Those shattered crow carcasses emitted countless black threadworms landing on the front end and windows of the train, climbing incessantly, making one’s scalp tingle.
"Kiddo!"
Lin Xian specifically called KIKI to the front to deal with this situation.
"Ugh~" KIKI, looking at the densely packed worms, felt disgusted and pushed forward with her hands, an invisible Telekinesis Shield instantly pushing those black threadworms aside, and the Zombie Crows that followed collided with the invisible air shield, completely unable to approach the front of the train.
Seeing this, Lin Xian instructed, "Good! Just like that!"
Lin Xian had Chen Sixuan and KIKI responsible for driving and blocking the Zombie Crows ahead, while he hurried towards the rear train.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The sky filled with Zombie Crows was like an avalanche disintegrating, with a roaring sound, a large amount of Zombie Crows started crashing into the train’s sides and roof. At this moment, the sky above Shu Qin’s convoy was filled with flying crows.
"Fire Fist!"
Boom!
A huge pillar of fire shot across from the roof, igniting a high-temperature wave of flames, instantly engulfing a large number of crows, burning like nitrate with a white flame and accompanied by crisp explosions.
Pop pop pop pop!
In a moment, a chain reaction of explosions ignited in the air, waves of fire spreading out, engulfing the sky full of crows!
"Ah!!!"
Faced with the raging inferno, many people in Shu Qin’s convoy cried out in fear, crushed by the sudden high temperature.
Clatter clatter clatter! freeweɓnovel.cøm
Several chains flew out from the train, accurately hooking onto the trailer frames of several cars. Lin Xian opened the hatch from the rear empty carriage, immediately hooking up all the cars to the train’s trailer hook!
"The fire isn’t big enough!"
Lin Xian yelled to Lu Xingchen!
"Then let’s burn the whole city!"
Lu Xingchen declared robustly, standing up and leaping from the car door, stepping on the tow chain created by Lin Xian, then placing his hands below and igniting fire, leveraging the thrust to soar into the sky!
He leapt into the air, gazing at the dark cloud-like flock of crows, his eyes cold as a slight smile curled at his lips, his hands crossed in front of his chest.
"Divine·Burning Sky!"
Boom!
Flames radiated from his body in a burst, like explosive fire clouds, the glow surging!
Lin Xian frowned at this spectacle, muttering to himself,
"This guy, don’t even think about wearing clothes in the future."
