Chapter 10: White Strange Creature

Lin Xian frowned and held his breath.

Click~click~

The sound was getting closer and closer, and it sounded a little dull. He was startled. It didn't sound like some kind of zombie.

It sounded more like a cane poking at gravel.

He slowly opened his eyes, unsure whether the light in his eyes could be detected. But when he opened his eyes and looked around, he found nothing. There was still only a vague black outline of a small truck in front of him.

He turned around and saw that the "Infinity" was parked quietly on the railroad track. Even Chen Sixuan inside did not make any sound because of the darkness. He didn't know if she was asleep.

Everything is so quiet!

Lin Xian was feeling uneasy. He was sure that he had heard something, and his keen sixth sense told him that he was being watched by some kind of existence.

Thinking of this, he became anxious and began to anxiously activate the [Mechanical Devouring]

Hurry up! Faster!

At this moment, Lin Xian no longer had the relaxed feeling he had in the furniture store in the afternoon. Thinking of 'Uncle Li' from last night, he felt cold all over and wished he could get back on the train as soon as possible.

[Devouring progress 98%]

Almost there! Almost there!

Although it took almost an hour and a half, it was all worth it as long as it was successful.

[Swallowed successfully, Mechanical Source Points +30, Mechanical Swallowing Skill Proficiency +10, Additional Reward: Your Strength and Speed ​​Increase by 5, Defense Increase by 2]

[Congratulations, your speed attribute has been increased to LV.1 3/50]

A light flashed before his eyes, and Lin Xian looked at the skyrocketing mechanical source point and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As his speed attribute increased, his eyes became blurry and sharp at times.

Gradually, he found that his vision became clearer and brighter.

Wow~

As he finished swallowing, the entire truck suddenly turned into ashes. Some of the broken objects in the car fell to the ground with a clang, causing a commotion. At this time, Lin Xian suddenly heard a low buzzing sound coming from above his head.

Ang hum~

The sound was extremely strange, like the sound of a broken ship's whistle coming from a rusty iron pipe.

Not like a human, nor like some kind of machine.

Lin Xian immediately felt a chill on his back and raised his head abruptly. Then, he saw a horrifying scene that almost scared him to death.

A gray-white humanoid creature, three meters tall, appeared beside him at some point. It had a slender body, with arms that almost hung below its knees. It had a strange head with a bright red bloody mouth, and two round eyes that were all red as it lowered its head and stared at Lin Xian.

This thing had been standing next to Lin Xian for a long time, and it only attracted its attention when the small truck disappeared. Thinking of this, Lin Xian felt his scalp tingling and was terrified!

Ang hum~

The empty and low roar was heard again, and the gray-white monster suddenly raised its long hands. Its five fingers were like five steel guns, grabbing towards Lin Xian ferociously.

Lin Xian's pupils shrank slightly and he took a deep breath.

If I were caught by this claw, I would be skewered like a meat skewer!

Fortunately, his speed attribute had just been upgraded to a higher level, and his physical agility was beyond Lin Xian's self-awareness. Before the white claws arrived, he had already stepped back reflexively!

when!

There was an ear-piercing sound of metal clashing, and the white monster's sharp claws grabbed the railroad tracks. Sparks flew in an instant, and there was an ear-piercing friction sound. Lin Xian was frightened when he heard it, and he raised his hand and aimed at the monster's head and fired a wind cannon!

puff!

Only a dull sound was heard, and the monster's head seemed to be hit by something, and its body tilted and fell back a few steps.

Lin Xian was shocked. The skin of this thing was so hard that the wind cannon couldn't penetrate it at all! ?

Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Lin Xian did not hesitate at all. He immediately sprinted onto the "Infinity" carriage and at the same time activated the Mechanical Heart to raise the tailgate while starting the train to move forward.

The lights came on, and Chen Sixuan, startled by the noise, shouted to him in carriage No. 1

"Student Lin, what's wrong?!"

"Hurry, go to the driver's seat and help me watch the road!"

"OK!"

Chen Sixuan looked at Lin Xian closing the door frantically and immediately realized the danger. She turned around and ran into the cab without hesitation.

Woo~

The hydraulic tailgate door slowly closed, and for the first time, Lin Xian felt that the door was closing too slowly.

Sure enough, when the door was halfway closed, a giant gray-white hand suddenly grabbed the tailboard, and the black nails on the eerie fingers immediately left several dents on the steel tailboard!

“What a great strength!”

Lin Xian's eyes widened, and with the help of the light in the car, he could see the monster outside clearly.

On the strangely shaped head, there were only two eyes with red blood holes, like an abyss, and then there was a bloody mouth that occupied half of the face. The densely packed sharp teeth made people's scalps numb.

This is definitely not a zombie!

Lin Xian’s first reaction was that this thing was definitely not a mutated dead person. It was not a creature from this world at all!

"Fuck you!"

In a hurry, Lin Xian didn't care about the fear in his heart. He got ruthless and immediately drew out his dagger and leaped forward, slashing at the gray giant hand.

when!

What responded to him was not the satisfying feeling of chopping flesh, but the hardness of steel. His full-strength blow directly made his palm numb.

Looking at the gap on the dagger, Lin Xian took a breath of cold air!

Damn, it’s so hard!

Ang hum~

The white monster seemed to move slowly, with one hand grabbing the tailboard. It was dragged by the huge force of the train and fell down with a bang. It was pulled forward on the rails by the "Infinity". It seemed to be angry, and raised its other hand to grab Lin Xian's entire carriage.

Squeak! !

Because of the huge force pulling it, the wheels and rails of carriage No. 3 sparked and made a harsh squeaking sound.

When Lin Xian saw this thing, his heart started pounding. This thing was extremely strong and invulnerable to swords and guns. If he was knocked off the track by it, he would definitely die here today.

So he made a prompt decision, raised his finger and gathered all his strength, aimed at one of the giant monster's bloody eyes and shot out another wind gun!

puff!

This time, with the help of the light, the air gun hit the target accurately. Dark red plasma gushed out from the giant monster's left eye, dyeing its pale face red. The plasma slowly flowed into its mouth, and the giant monster immediately let out a howling scream!

"ah!!!"

The sound was so high-pitched and piercing that it made the hair on the body stand on end and almost broke the eardrums.

Following Lin Xian's attack, the giant's hand fell off the tailboard. At this time, the tailboard of carriage No. 3 finally closed its door slowly with black smoke coming out.

Clank, clank!

The speed of the train gradually increased.

Lin Xian immediately stood up to see, because there was no light outside, the white monster disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.

Phew~

At this time, Lin Xian finally breathed a sigh of relief. He sat down on the ground, looking at the three hideous scratches on the tailboard in front of him in panic.

This was the first time he had encountered something so terrifying in several months!

"If there are all these things in the polar night, damn..."

He murmured, and at this moment, he finally experienced the horror of the night.

escape!

They must escape from the dark tide of Xingyuan. Last night, the strange insects controlled the human corpses, and today, there are white giant monsters. No one knows what kind of weird things will appear in the dark night. Those survivors who want to survive in the darkness are simply wishful thinking.

The only way out for mankind is to escape the tides and the polar night!
