Chapter 309 Break out of the polar night and turn on the lights!

Lin Xian walked towards the storage compartment and the living compartment, checking the conditions of each compartment, while KIKI followed him all the way.

"Lin Xian, are you really relieved about this thing?"

"What can we do if we are worried?" Lin Xian responded, "We can't just throw it away. Now that we have seen the benefits, we should use it first. There is no need to let the worry of the unknown affect our judgment."

After the farce just now, Lin Xian discovered that this forbidden object seemed to have been successfully "contained" by some kind of accident, and the tragic situations caused by the forbidden object shelters that KIKI had given before did not happen. This gave him his current idea.

“That’s right.”

KIKI thought about it and nodded: "This thing can spit fire, maybe it just happened to be taken in by Brother Huo. This is the only explanation I can think of."

Lin Xian suddenly stopped while walking and gave a bitter smile: "We have stepped into too many traps. Now we are lucky, but it still feels unreal. I now think it is incredible that we can escape from the corpse chaser intact."

At that time, above the mountains outside Yijin City, when Lin Xian saw the corpse driver and the huge group of strange bodies, his mind went blank for the first moment. He still remembers the feeling of desperate suffocation.

"Although Brother Huo speaks eccentrically, he is also an extremely cautious person. If there is a problem, he will deal with it immediately. I believe in him."

After Lin Xian said this, he felt relieved. He didn't have to worry about everything on the car. Choosing to trust his teammates was actually a kind of growth for him.

Looking back, if Brother Huo was really infected by the mycelium at that time, his actions were indeed for the safety of the other members of the team. In the end times, he chose to face death alone in order to protect his teammates. Would Lin Xian not trust such a teammate and hand over a forbidden object to him?

Besides, that thing was originally picked up by Brother Huo because of his good luck. Now it seems that this guy really has some incredible luck.

Hearing Lin Xian's words, KIKI smiled and said, "Hey, it seems like you look brighter now that you're not so worried."

Lin Xian was slightly stunned when he heard this. Do you want to say that my face turned pale?

That is indeed...

Lin Xian looked at the time and breathed a sigh of relief, "We are almost leaving the polar night area, but because it is still night, we can't let our guard down. You should also take a break. Keep the radar running at full power. We don't have any lights on now, so we rely on this."

"Okay, okay~" KIKI stretched and said, "Then I'm going to sleep, don't wake me up."

"Won't."

"No, no, you have to call me if there's anything." KIKI thought about it, and felt a little worried. She came over and put her arms around Lin Xian's neck, looking at him with watery eyes: "How about I accompany you?"

Lin Xian looked at the rear carriage and shook his head, "No, you should go and have a good rest. The explosion of the Tiangu Tower must have had a significant impact on you. There are so many people on the United Train now, you don't have to worry about me, go and have a good sleep."

Sufficient rest is very important for dealing with crises. Lin Xian understood this after leaving Jiang City. And a very crucial point is that the dark power of the Hell Black Chrysanthemum is transformed. Resting is precisely the best time for the body to evolve.

Lin Xian is the only one in the entire car who does not need it, because these forces are directly converted into mechanical source points by the heterogeneous Rubik's Cube, which is direct and simple.

"All right."

KIKI knew that Lin Xian was concerned about her, so she didn’t get angry: “Then be careful. When Sister Chen and I wake up, it’s time for you to go to bed.”

"Um."

After saying that, she glanced at Lin Xian, then turned and left.

After KIKI left, Lin Xian looked out the window. The silent Gobi Desert was becoming more and more open, and it was as dark as the sea. He activated his mechanical heart and began to check the condition of the carriages and frames. He came to carriage No. 12, where [Grace] stood quietly in the shadows. Her mechanical face was beautiful, and her silver-black metallic skin was flowing with a special luster. Lin Xian walked up and reached out to touch something. In an instant, there was a strange resonance in the coldness that made his mechanical heart seem to be shocked.

In the dark carriage No. 12, [Grace] stood quietly, and at this time, in the Gemini 11R nuclear-powered carriage behind carriage No. 12, in a special metal lead box, the containment device containing the heavy suspension catheter suddenly lit up at this moment, emitting a cherry red light, and a black shadow appeared in the contents inside, and then it quickly went out slowly, returning to calm again.

Lin Xian's expression changed slightly. He took his hand away and looked at Grace's beautiful face.

"Strange, I've turned off my phone, but why do I feel like you're still looking at me?"

After looking for a while, Lin Xian withdrew his gaze, feeling a little puzzled. He walked to the back, where a bunch of Lin Xian's maintenance tools were placed in the Infinite tool car, but now there is a very large tool area with various equipment for maintaining trains, many of which were scanned by Lin Xian on the road and then made. In the building on the train, Lu Chang and a few others who knew a little about maintenance were able to bring a group of team members to share a lot of train maintenance work with Lin Xian.

After Luo Yang and Li Yi's team joined, he had more helpers in the train maintenance work. Luo Yang's team are a group of top university students who understand technology and have strong hands-on ability. The workers in Li Yi's team are a group of men who are both combat-ready and skilled, as can be seen from the fact that they converted an engineering vehicle into a doomsday vehicle.

If the intelligent computer [Grace] and the PX-05 maintenance robot are added, and a fully automatic bullet punching machine is manufactured, the pressure on Lin Xian can be reduced by at least 60%. He can then focus his main energy on improving the combat effectiveness of all members, strengthening cooperation and communication with the Phoenix Society, and continuing to upgrade the internal living space, making it green, entertaining, and intelligent, and completely turning the Infinite Train into a mobile steel fortress!

Thinking of this, Lin Xian immediately found an empty corner to sit down, preparing to make a set of Black Hawk-Silent Hunter power armor for himself, while also making some modifications to thoroughly enhance his combat effectiveness.

Then, two more PX-05 robots will be manufactured as backup, to be used when the carriages are reassembled later.

Rub, rub, rub.

They acted immediately. The mechanical manufacturing light curtain was activated, countless materials began to fly out, and forging began from the most basic mechanical units!

Clank, clank.

The combined train sped across the vast Gobi wilderness, with the wind whistling all the way and its steel wheels spinning continuously, from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m., and the black curtain on the sky seemed endless with no end in sight.

Looking at the endless dark wilderness, there was a sense of loneliness as if abandoned by the world, until one moment, Lin Xian's voice was heard simultaneously in the communicators of all the convoys.

"All teams, we have left the polar night area of ​​Star Abyss No. 5, but we are still within the coverage of the dark tide. According to the tidal speed of Star Abyss No. 5, the dawn time should be around 9-10 o'clock tomorrow. We have no dark mark now and are in a silent state, so all teams can turn on the lights and carry out normal operations, but you must also remain cautious!"

In the Infinity carriage, Lin Xian looked at the driving record detection in the mobile terminal and announced the news using the communicator.

“Huh~”

After saying that, Lin Xian also breathed a sigh of relief. This was his first time entering the polar night area. Although it was only the extreme edge of Star Abyss No. 5, it was absolutely thrilling. Broken tracks, parasitic hyphae, fungal blankets that could destroy steel, sky mushroom towers, crimson worlds, and corpse chasers were all full of dangers and made people scared.

This successful escape was not based on any strength or magic tricks; it can be said to be a miracle.

"It seems that the ancient saying that if you survive a great disaster, you will have good fortune in the future, this saying does make sense."

The disaster in Xilan City had just ended, and Yijin City almost made people despair. If one did not have a strong mind, one would not even have the courage to survive on this doomsday journey.

Tang Yun is a living example. Her husband left her, but she was unwilling to face the end of the world and would rather be swallowed by mycelium than escape. When a person loses the courage to live, what awaits him is being eroded by darkness and turning into a zombie.

The last time they appeared on a large scale was on the first day of the defense of Xilan City. The city was suddenly breached by the sinkholes of the abyss worms, and the whole city was in chaos.

Therefore, with the passage of time, there are very few cases of survivors transforming into strange zombies in their convoys, unless they are seriously injured and their wills collapse, or in desperate situations like the fall of Xilan City.

Lin Xian's words spread to the teams, immediately causing the captains of the teams to cheer excitedly.

"Very good!"

"Have we left the range of the polar night?!"

"Thank God!"

"Captain Lin, Captain Shi, thank you for your hard work!"

"Yes, we must not let our guard down before we see the dawn!"

"Everyone, please let the wounded, women and children rest first. Others should also take turns. Both the people and the radar should be there!"

"Yes, yes, don't worry, if every car of ours works together, we will definitely see the dawn."

"Okay!"

On the front Longshan No. 1, Ning Jing, who was standing in the cockpit to give orders, also breathed a sigh of relief at this time. She gave instructions to her subordinates in the cockpit and then went to a lounge at the back. Half of the bandages on Sidi Yuan's body had been removed, leaving only the shoulder blade area. The wound there was the most horrific and was almost torn open by a snow demon and a winged demon. It was still shocking to think about it now. Even with the abnormal recovery rate of Sidi Yuan's violent beast-like ability, he still hasn't recovered yet.

"Brother Lin, you've worked hard. When we run out at dawn, we should enter Rob's western towns, and we may stop to rest then."

As soon as Ning Jing walked in, she heard Shi Diyuan communicating with the captains of several major teams. She took a look and said, "We were able to break out of the polar night this time thanks to Captain Lin. This man is not only resourceful, but also extremely perceptive. He seems like a natural leader."

Shi Diyuan laughed when he heard this: "I told you long ago that he was not a simple man. When he was in Yubei, he had two power cores in one train, one gas turbine and one nuclear power. He dared to rush into the tide of zombies in Yubei City with five or six people on board. Even Miss Jian of the Finger Group had to look at this kind of person differently. At that time, I thought this guy was a big shot and very much to my taste. Now you see, I was right about him!"

Ning Jing found a seat and sat down, nodded and said, "So what are the plans for next? When we were exploring Yijin City, I heard Captain Lin say that they wanted to go around Jinhai and go back to the orbit of the star. It seems that they have to go through Shuguang City. Although there are many people there, it is the territory of the former Federation, and the situation must be extremely complicated."

Shi Diyuan understood what Ning Jing meant, and his eyes narrowed slightly as he began to think.

Obviously, after leaving Quancheng, if they follow the north line all the way to the northeast and drive at full speed during the day without stopping, they will definitely catch up with the Dawn Center in less than a week. Even if they encounter some troubles and obstacles, they will be able to reach the Qionggu Strait and meet up with the Dawn Center within half a month. The strait bridge there has been broken, and it is not an easy task for the ferry system to transport six million people. In addition, there are a steady stream of survivor convoys heading northeast towards Tianji.

Now the Phoenix Society and the survivors in the two big cities of Donghai and Tianji are even as numerous as those in Jinhai.

"It will certainly save us a lot of trouble if we follow the Dawn Center." Steve Yuan concentrated. Entering the Dawn Center is basically like finding the base camp. Although this base camp is mobile, each team already has a backbone.

However, the strategic mission of the Dawn Center is different from that of Sky Phoenix City and Sea City Noah. The focus of the former is not on escape, but on gathering survivors from all over the world and bringing them to the Polar Doomsday Base. Therefore, the movement speed of the Dawn Center is extremely slow. It will stay in each area of ​​the route for at least twenty days or a month before moving on to the next main city. Dragon Country has a large population, and the Dawn Center will stay for at least several months before crossing the Qionggu Strait.

The various divisions of the Order of the Phoenix, the interstellar armies, and the Order's joint fleet are also constantly collecting resources and transporting them to the polar regions at all costs, so the Order's various city outposts and ocean ports are all heavily defended cities.

The construction group headed by Xinghua Heavy Industry has been building Xuanwu City and Kunlun Star Hub, the last defense line of mankind, in the polar regions. Food supplies and mineral resources from all over the country are being continuously transported there. It will be the final fortress that can accommodate tens of millions of people, and it will also be the last starship port for mankind to escape from the Blue Star!

Therefore, the survivors who choose Doomsday Train as their vehicle, in addition to the defensive advantages of the train itself, have another main reason, that is, the circumstellar orbit. They do not have to follow the Dawn Center through the ocean orbit and can directly cross the Pacific Ocean and the Black Ocean to reach the polar ice cap, allowing them to enter the polar front sooner.

In this regard, Longshan No. 1 and Silver Star have the same purpose. The former is safer, while the latter is slightly more aggressive. However, the common trait of human beings is that they have preconceived concepts. If the polar night cannot be stopped and the world falls, then the only way left for human beings is to escape from the Blue Planet. However, resources are always limited, and there will always be people who cannot board the starship and eventually die in despair in the polar night.

Therefore, the Phoenix Society has a multi-line strategic plan. Among them, the starship plan is placed last, and the purpose is very straightforward, which is to prevent the survivors from giving up hope and to defeat the darkness as the main direction!

"I think we should go to Jinhai." Shi Diyuan pondered for a moment, then said to himself.

"I know that you want to completely transform the all-terrain drive of Longshan No. 1 and make plans for the future."

"right."

Shi Diyuan took a deep breath and said, "Even if we catch up with the Dawn Center, we still have to live on the train. The track problem is a constraint for us, and it is also a constraint for the Dawn Center, so they will definitely solve this problem. If there is really trouble at that time, should we abandon Longshan No. 1?"

Ning Jing nodded: "I understand, that's great, we can go along with Captain Lin and the others, and we can look after each other."

Starting with Longshan No. 1 and Infinity, the lights in the carriages began to turn on one by one. The goose yellow light shone through the windows covered with steel armor, illuminating the Gobi sand and Sedge grass on the roadside. Soon, nearly 500 carriages of Train 22 also turned on their lights one after another. The 15-kilometer-long steel dragon was like a chain of light, running across the vast land.

In the living compartment of Longshan No. 1, Xiaoqing was fully armed and wiping the blade of her gun. When the light came on, she slowly raised her head, and there was a little more life in her indifferent eyes. She then looked at Abai who was sleeping soundly on the bed opposite, picked up a can, weighed it, frowned, replaced it with an empty can, and threw it at Abai.

Boom!

Abai was hit and suddenly woke up.

"What's wrong?"

"The light... is on." Xiaoqing said in a low voice.

Ah Bai raised his head and looked at the light above his head with his sunglasses. He could only see a little light piercing the endless darkness in his sight. He raised his hand and stretched it in the direction of the light. A smile appeared on his young face: "Great, we are leaving the polar night."

The other living compartments suddenly became lively at this moment.

The lights come on, indicating that the most dangerous time has passed.

Many people stood up excitedly, and exclamations began to appear in the originally quiet carriage. The sound of people chatting could be heard. The men and women in charge of logistics came to the restaurant, moved the food from the supply carriage, and began to prepare hot meals and hot soup. There was even music coming from some carriages, which was the sound of old music players.

The oppressive feeling of suffocation in the polar night seemed to be instantly dispelled as the lights came on. The train is the doomsday home for these people, and everyone's sense of security rests on the steel track fortress.

On the Joker team's side, Chandler changed his cloak and put on a fashionable shirt and pink windbreaker. He walked into the back car with steady steps, and his men watched him quietly. Because this group of people had no experience on trains, the car had not been properly arranged yet, but the sense of security that the train brought them was something that everyone could feel.

Qian Dele glanced at everyone with a smile: "Why are you looking at me? Now is the time to prepare meals, decorate your cabins, pack up weapons and ammunition, and prepare the carriages. Let's get moving!"

"Uh, Boss Qian."

One of the burly men, who was wearing a chef's uniform and carrying a gun, stood up and said with a simple smile: "Everyone said that we got steak this time, this..."

Qian Dele glanced at everyone calmly. Seeing that his subordinates all had eager eyes, he chuckled and said inexplicably:

"Why are you asking me? If you have steak, just eat it. The better the steak is, the less likely it is to be frozen for too long. You should enjoy it. Who the hell knows whether we will survive tomorrow? Lao Zhou, you can cook it however you want, whether it's fried, stewed, braised, stir-fried or deep-fried. Bring out the wine, too. Really, you still need to ask me such a question?!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone smiled and stood up suddenly, saying excitedly:

"Yes, let's start cooking. We have rice, seafood and steak!"

"Hurry, hurry, take action!"

"Xiao Meng~" Qian Dele turned to Xiao Meng and said, "Please help me arrange it. I just want to eat some vegetarian food~"

After saying that, he turned around and sat down on the sofa beside him, watching his men with a smile as they started to get busy.

Xiao Meng glanced at her captain. Although Qian Dele was very picky and sharp-tongued and did not look very manly, Xiao Meng, who had followed Qian Dele the longest, knew that Qian Dele was a very free and easy person and absolutely straightforward. He never hid anything from his subordinates. All the people in the car had an attitude of living for the moment and would risk their lives to resist. If it were not for Xiao Meng, the deputy captain who was in charge of the basic material allocation, everyone in the car would probably have gone hungry.

…

The Queen Mo, the fully automatic carriage was extremely quiet. After the lights came on, the fully armed men hadn't reacted yet, and then they saw the door of carriage No. 1 opened, and Monica walked out slowly wearing a white power armor lining suit. This lining suit has the characteristics of fireproof insulation and improving the movement efficiency of power armor. It is very expensive. Originally, in the interstellar army, only the high-level special forces and pilots of Iron Hunter and Phantom Wolves could be equipped with it.

Monica took off her power armor, but the tight mecha lining suit perfectly outlined her figure and attracted everyone's attention in an instant.

As members of the Queen Mo, although they were already accustomed to Monica's different dressing style, they still felt amazing at this moment.

Monica likes the entire carriage to be spotless. In carriage No. 1, her dressing room alone takes up 1/5 of the space. Even in an environment like doomsday, she always maintains her elegance.

Everyone looked at Monica coming out, and many men's eyes widened. On this male-dominated doomsday train, the only woman was their leader. Moreover, this woman had a beautiful figure, excellent temperament, and a wild personality. She gave people a sense of friendliness, but also a sense of superiority.

Normally, in the doomsday when the world's logic collapses, no matter what kind of woman she is, it is impossible for her to maintain such an attitude in front of a group of men with combat and productivity. But Monica is different. Her superpowers are extremely powerful, and she has violent-level strength. She also owns an automated doomsday train that is almost at the level of a battle fortress, and she has abundant supplies. In addition, her 70% fierce and 30% gentle way of controlling people has gained her many confidants who are willing to sacrifice their lives for her.

So even though some men in the car body were dissatisfied with her or had coveted her, they did not have the courage to go against her wishes.

This is what the doomsday is like. Whether you are a man or a woman, strength, supplies, and shelter are symbols of your identity.

Besides, these people have food and drink with Monica, and their living conditions can be said to be top-notch. When they have nothing to do, the proprietress changes her clothing style to please the eyes. Although you can see but not touch, it is better than looking at rotting zombies. What else can you ask for?

Monica walked out, looked at everyone, then raised her hand and waved. An automated terminal computer on the wall extended out. She stretched out her hand and clicked a few times on it. At this time, the robotic arm of the material carriage extended out, and the meals prepared by the chef and the automated robots were quickly delivered.

The meal plate contained steak, vegetable juice, fruit, red wine, and even a cigarette.

This scene made everyone's eyes pop out.

Monica's lips slightly raised at this time, holding a glass of red wine in her hand, she said in a high and elegant voice: "Everyone has worked hard. Everyone has contributed to escaping from the polar night this time. This glass of wine is for everyone."

"Sister Mo, Queen Mo, we should toast you." The men were extremely happy. They raised their glasses and looked at Monica, saying nervously.

“Yes, yes, yes.”

"Sister Mo, you've worked hard. We only managed to save our lives by following you!"

"Following Queen Mo is the best thing I have ever done in my life!"

Everyone stood up immediately, looking at her with passionate and admiring eyes. At this moment, Monica was like the savior queen under the desperate god of death at the end of the world. Her tall and sexy figure seemed to be glowing, and she had a charm and temperament that aroused men's primitive and violent desires, but they dared not desecrate her. Even Song Hao and the fat man, everyone stared at her with men's undisguised longing eyes.

Monica naturally felt these eager gazes and smiled slightly, enjoying the gaze that was like a trophy to her.

"cheers."

She smiled and drank a glass with her men, then turned around and left gracefully.
