Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train-Chapter 51 - 47 Endless Life
Chapter 51: Chapter 47 Endless Life
"No wonder that Tang Hai could act so arrogantly in the fog and dark night; it turns out those monsters wouldn’t harm him at all..."
Lin Xian had an epiphany, his previous doubts weren’t without reason. It seemed that Tang Hai was attacked by zombies because he was wounded and emitting a bloody scent, which paradoxically helped him achieve evolution.
Thinking about it, he felt some regret. He should have eliminated that old beast by blowing his head off beforehand, and now he had left a hidden danger.
However, at this moment he was also glad that his decision to repair the Close-in Weapon System to save his life was absolutely correct.
At that time, KIKI was already unconscious, and he alone certainly couldn’t handle both the Fog Spider and Feng Yuming, not to mention the overwhelming horde of zombies. Fortunately, Tang Hai and Feng Yuming couldn’t handle the complex weapon system either, and they didn’t dismantle any critical equipment; otherwise, tonight would have been a real dead end for both Lin Xian and KIKI.
Back to the main topic, Lin Xian looked at KIKI, "So you also know how your superpower was upgraded?"
Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, KIKI simply smiled faintly, shook her head and said, "I guess I might belong to the psychic or telekinetic category, these are quite rare in the records, but I also don’t know how to upgrade, or rather, how to complete that ’ceremony’."
"As for you..." KIKI then looked at Lin Xian with a strange gaze, "Honestly, I don’t even know which type you belong to. You can activate machinery, probably a functional type of superpower. Although this type of superpower’s Spirit Swinging Value might not be very high, it has been deemed by the ’Angel Plan’ as having ’strategically great value’. I think your ability is more like No. 27, the inorganic control type, but how can you also use elemental superpowers?"
At this point, KIKI frowned more deeply as she looked at Lin Xian, "Could it be that you have more than one type of superpower?"
"You guess..."
Lin Xian said with an expressionless face. At this moment a chill went through his heart, and he somehow had a strong premonition that what he had might... not be a superpower at all.
What kind of superpower would have a progress indicator bar?
"There’s another thing." KIKI said, "It is said that a very few superpower users have completely lost their abilities, including some of Vajra Level."
"Completely lost, what does that mean?"
"How would I know... it wasn’t specified in the records," KIKI pursed her lips, "It’s only known that they suddenly lost their powers without any external interference. The research bureau evaluates that it might be related to their own mental state and psychological conditions, but they could not determine the true cause."
KIKI’s information gave Lin Xian a near-revolutionary understanding of the current world. Although it had only been a few months since the collapse of order due to the apocalypse, superpower users had already formed a vast group, and this group was directly affecting the survival path of humanity.
After tiresome deliberations throughout the night, everyone was a bit exhausted. To be cautious, Lin Xian let the train maintain a low speed of around 50KM, with Chen Sixuan on watch in the driver’s cabin, and he also rested briefly there.
"KIKI seems to have a lot of secrets," Chen Sixuan said, watching Lin Xian who was taking a break.
"Everyone has secrets, as long as they are helpful to us, we don’t need to delve into them too much."
"What did she... just talk to you about?" Chen Sixuan’s eyes flickered slightly, she knew it wasn’t good to ask Lin Xian this directly, but she couldn’t suppress her curiosity.
Lin Xian chuckled with his eyes closed, "What else could it be? She made me promise not to get physically intimate with her without her consent."
Chen Sixuan responded with a complex expression upon hearing this.
Speaking of which, she didn’t even know whether her relationship with Lin Xian was willing or not, she only knew she was grateful to be saved by Lin Xian, and now Lin Xian has become her sole reliance.
Moreover, he was quite decent and seemed to have the kind of personality she liked, so she didn’t seem to resist that incident occurring.
Could this be the legendary Suspension Bridge effect?
Oh, what am I thinking about...
"Yesterday the day broke at 16:26, we traveled about 50 kilometers towards North Bay Station, if we calculate, to make it before tomorrow 16:00, we need to travel at least about 370 kilometers,"
Chen Sixuan held the route book and continued to calculate, "But segment JY3365 will detour around Qu Pass and Yuchi,lulating our route from Jiang City’s direct line to include Star Abyss Lu City, Dingzhou..."
"Teacher Chen."
Lin Xian interrupted her calculation, slightly closing his eyes, "Tell me, is it possible that Star Abyss No. 3 isn’t the source of the Dark Tide?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Sixuan suddenly fell silent for a moment,
"I... don’t know"
From a geometric point of view, if every Star Abyss is undergoing a Dark Tide, as if expanding at the same pace on Blue Star, it means their radii are increasing linearly with time.
"If the range affected by the Star Abyss is fixed, there might still be some angular living space left for humanity, but if the first polar night isn’t the endpoint, and the second tide’s range continues to expand, then it’s only a matter of time before the polar night covers the entire Blue Star."
After the polar night, networks and communications paralyzed, they, as ordinary people, couldn’t probe what was happening in the entire world and could only collect clues through radio broadcasts.
If it wasn’t for KIKI, they wouldn’t even know that the Federation Government has categorized superpower users and even established a set of standards.
Lin Xian nodded, looking somewhat uneasy; if that’s the case, it means there’s no escape for anyone, and humanity can only grope for survival in the darkness.
Chen Sixuan looked at Lin Xian, who was worried, and suddenly said, "Lin, do you still remember the motto of Jiang University?"
Lin Xian looked at her, and they both simultaneously said,
"The ceaseless struggle has been a part of humanity since its inception!"
After a while, the two exchanged a smile.
As the wheels were set in motion, everyone was fleeing from the night towards the dawn; even if they were to ultimately remain in darkness forever, as long as the last spark of survival remains, they must not give up the fight.
Lin Xian steadied his heart. If he could enhance his own abilities, even in the endless night, he could survive; this further solidified his resolve to build the ultimate fortress.
Woo~
The fog ahead gradually thinned, and under the car lights, the visibility became broader. Lin Xian stood up, looking towards the distant mountain landscapes, relaxed his face, and slowly stopped the train in a tunnel.
"Why have we stopped?" Chen Sixuan looked at Lin Xian, puzzled.
He turned around and suddenly swept her up in a princess carry, the young man holding a slight smile, loudly said, "Teacher Chen, there’s another thing that has forever ’proliferated’ since the existence of humankind."
"..." freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Chen Sixuan was caught off guard, her face instantly blushed, and she awkwardly avoided Lin Xian’s gaze, her normally clear and white neck and ears turning a shade as beautiful as peach blossoms in March.
"Aren’t you very tired..."
Lin Xian, holding her, moved to the bed in carriage one, spiritedly said, "Suddenly, I feel reinvigorated."
The doors of each carriage were already closed; at this time, carriage one had become Lin Xian’s private living area.
Chen Sixuan’s face was flushed, her voice as soft as a mosquito, "Ah, that..."
"Not convenient?"
"No...not that."
Chen Sixuan’s skin was smooth as mutton fat jade cream, but as Lin Xian’s lips pressed against hers, despite the apocalypse, he could still smell the alluring scent of a woman, subtle yet enthralling.
At that moment, Chen Sixuan only felt a ticklish sensation on her back, Lin Xian’s breath cooling on her skin, bringing a refreshing sensation that seeped into her pores, igniting an irresistible sense of embarrassment and desire in her.
Holding the blanket over her little face, she whispered, "...take...take my bag, it has that."
"Okay."
"Hmm...gentler, hmm..."
The heavy train quietly sat under the dark night, the thick armored metal shell outside cloaked in a gloomy and terrifying dark tunnel; inside, however, was the warm incandescent light over the soft down couch, filled with a sense of security.
The two intertwined, crushing the taboo between male and female souls, one body tall and lean, the other gracefully delicate, their silhouettes writhing and undulating together like a charging battle chariot, or a ship breaking through waves...
The night was as dark as ink. At this moment, in the upper bunk of carriage two, Lou Shasha was deeply asleep, while KIKI, covering her head with a pillow in the lower bunk, her face flushed red, felt the odd rhythm thumping from the next room. Biting her teeth in frustration, she couldn’t help but mutter curses under her breath, continuously drawing circles in her mind, cursing that certain someone.
Thinking that tomorrow she would preemptively install soundproof panels in carriage two and even weld an additional layer of steel.
