Chapter 327: Rushing in the Sandstorm

At 5 a.m. in Aksai, a sandstorm was howling and the yellow sand obscured the stars in the sky. At this moment, the 15-kilometer-long combined train suddenly made a shaking and roaring sound, instantly waking everyone up.

Lin Xian's voice exploded in the communication frequency band, immediately causing many teams to panic.

"What's wrong?!"

"Is the monster coming?"

"Listen, Captain Lin, start the engine, quick!"

"Don't worry about anything, just go!"

For a moment, the sounds in the entire frequency band were in chaos. At this time, the voices of Shi Diyuan and others came over the captain's channel.

"Brother Lin, what's going on?"

Lin Xian immediately said: "We must rush out of the no-man's land before dark tonight, otherwise it will be too late!"

At this moment, Lin Xian didn't know how to explain it, but when he combined Chu Yan's words with the previous incident between Hu Lushou and Lao Mo in the Wei River, and combined it with what Hu Lushou said about the recent appearance of forbidden objects in the no-man's land that even attracted people from the Holy Revelation, it was not difficult to see that Chu Yan's words were definitely not groundless!

When Chen Sixuan heard Lin Xian's words, she ran to the Weilong-class electric carriage without any hesitation, one in front and one behind, and started all the engines of the traction train.

As for Longshan No. 1, as the lead vehicle, Shi Diyuan did not make any judgment and immediately asked the driving team to start all the vehicles.

"Don't ask, just activate it at full power. All armed positions are on standby and enter combat status immediately!"

The order was passed down layer by layer, and the carriages of Longshan No. 1, which were originally resting and sleeping, quickly moved. The intercontinental power carriage started, and this giant steel dragon began to move slowly.

At the same time, Hu Lushou, Lu Zhao, Xie Guan and other car teams were also awakened by the chaos at this moment. Looking at the combined train that had already started, these car teams started their engines and began to prepare for departure.

"What's wrong, what's wrong..." Hu Lushou climbed up from the RV with a confused look on his face and grabbed the intercom: "Why do you want to start suddenly?"

"It's an emergency, let's catch up with the train first." Sun Chang has already commanded the convoy to start moving.

At this time, a sandstorm swept across the entire Aksai. All the car teams could not even see the road clearly and were in a mess. There were also collisions and scrapes. However, looking at the train accelerating on the track next to them, these teams had no time to react. They could only step on the accelerator frantically and start moving forward following the track.

"Can't you see the road clearly?!"

"Don't worry about it, just follow the taillights!" Lu Zhao shouted, "Follow me, everyone! No one can be left behind!"

At this moment, everyone was extremely nervous. In the sandstorm that made it impossible to even open their eyes, the lights of the train and the convoy were constantly swallowed by the sand, leaving only spots of light moving quickly across the Gobi Desert.

This situation is an advantage for trains. As long as the tracks exist, they don't have to worry about the direction of travel. But for the steel torrent of hundreds of vehicles in the convoy, it is like hell mode. The drivers hold the steering wheels tightly, and can see almost nothing but yellow sand on the armored windshield. They can only drive forward by the red taillights of the car in front and the small radar on the car.

Moreover, the speed of the combined trains is constantly increasing, which is even more of a disaster for these convoys.

At this time, the instruction of "getting out of the no-man's land before dark" reached the ears of every convoy. The hearts of the entire convoy were in their throats. They didn't know what unknown dangers the sandstorm in front of them might bring, but the sword of crossing thousands of kilometers of no-man's land in 13 hours was already hanging over everyone's head!

"All motorcades, arrange for heavy vehicles equipped with radar and obstacle recognition to go in front, and the rest to follow in a straight line to avoid getting lost or hitting obstacles. Everyone, follow the train closely!"

In the communicator, Qian Dele, who had rich driving experience, was helping to direct the convoy outside. Soon, the convoy gradually stabilized and began to march in a line close to the flat road next to the track. Under the instructions of each convoy, everyone began to keep the same speed and finally caught up with the rear convoy of the joint train without being left behind.

On the Queen Mo, Monica's team reacted very quickly. All defense posts were in place. Monica was also wearing power armor and patrolling from the rear of the vehicle with a cold expression.

“Don’t let your guard down.”

On the Infinity, the team members in each carriage quickly took action at this moment, holding their guns and activating the fire control radar at the same time.

"Captain Lin!"

Shuqin, Luo Yang and others were standing in the corridor of the living compartment, watching Lin Xian walking towards them quickly with a serious expression, followed by a group of people including KIKI Huo. They all sensed an extremely unusual aura.

Lin Xian walked through the carriages and came to the last carriage No. 21.

Under the shadow of the light, [Grace] stood quietly in the center. Lin Xian walked in quickly and the mechanical scan passed over her again.

His purpose for coming here is simple.

If the person who spoke to him at the Zero Element Center was not Chu Yan, then whose was the "will" when this [Grace] reminded him?

When he thought of this, Lin Xian felt a little horrified. There was something wrong with [Grace] in the car!

So Lin came here as soon as he started his late-night escape.

Through the sensing of the Mechanical Heart, [Grace] is still in the off state, and Lin Xian cannot spy on its quantum processor core. However, as long as the energy beamer is under Lin Xian's control, he can confirm that this robot is indeed not a threat.

Looking at that exquisite mechanical face, Lin Xian's heart shuddered. He clearly remembered that Grace had indeed warned him in a human tone.

"Lin Xian, what's going on?"

KIKI saw Lin Xian suddenly rush out in an emergency and find the robot again, and her face looked a little nervous.

Lin Xian turned around and looked at KIKI: "How long will it take to analyze and overwrite at the fastest?"

"It may take another day or so, and the overwriting will also take time." KIKI replied.

Rub, rub, rub!

Lin Xian immediately made an alloy cabinet and put [Grace] inside, then said to Lu Xingchen: "Brother Huo, you have been in contact with the gold bracelet for two days, is there anything wrong?"

Lu Xingchen immediately understood Lin Xian's concerns. Looking at the Infinity Ring on his wrist, he replied seriously, "Brother Lin, now that you mention it, I have indeed been a little depressed these past two days..."

"The concentration of darkness on it is not small, so you should be more careful. I suggest that you don't wear it on your hand all the time unless it is necessary." Lin Xian said.

Lu Xingchen nodded to show that he understood.

At this time, Lin Xian said to KIKI: "We are going to move in at full speed next. KIKI, you and Luo Yang keep an eye on the radar signal."

"Okay, I understand." KIKI sensed the seriousness of the situation from Lin Xian's tone and responded seriously.

Now we are in the midst of a sandstorm and it is dark, which means that the entire train is moving blindly at a very high speed. If any problems arise, there will be no time to react.

Boom, boom!

The night was like thick ink that soaked the sky. The combined train roared and ran wildly on the rails. The darkness pierced by the headlights of the first car, Longshan No. 1, was instantly swallowed up by the rolling sand wall. The metal armor made a boiling buzzing sound under the sweeping sandstorm, as if the entire carriage was being repeatedly bitten by the sharp teeth of an invisible giant beast.

The train convoys following outside were making an even louder noise inside. Hu Lushou in the RV was extremely nervous, holding the communicator tightly in his hand.

"Are we catching up? Their train is fast, we must not lose it!"

"We can keep up for now." Sun Chang's response was simple and clear. The vehicles of these survivors were not ordinary vehicles. They could reach extremely fast speeds in this flat Gobi Desert. The only problem was stability. With the current speed of the combined train, the car convoy would be completely left behind and lost in the sandstorm if it deviated even slightly.

Therefore, at this moment, drivers in each convoy did not dare to be careless. They kept a safe distance between cars, maintained smooth communication through the communicators, and kept an eye on the situation of the lead car at all times.

Soon, the entire joint train convoy had rushed out of the Shashekou area and entered the vast Aksai no-man's land. Sand was blowing, iron wheels were roaring, and all the traction locomotives of the 22 train regiments entered the patrol speed state. Lin Xian had not yet driven the train to a speed of 200KM because the sandstorm was too severe. If it went any faster, problems would easily arise.

They could only pray that there would be no trouble in this sandstorm and it would end soon so that they could continue to speed up.

At this time, Lin Xian told the captains of each team about the unusual movements in the no-man's land and Star Abyss No. 5. He couldn't use the connection between his own consciousness and Chu Yan's as an example, but he made a personal judgment based on the experiences of Hu Lushou and Lao Mo, as well as the rumors about the forbidden objects in the no-man's land. Because Lin Xian had used his mechanical abilities to come into contact with the intelligent robots of the Crimson World, when everyone learned that the unusual movements in Star Abyss No. 5 were likely related to the Crimson World's contact with the forbidden objects in the Star Abyss, they quickly understood why Lin Xian made such a decision.

"Captain Lin, this means that because of the stupid things that damn Crimson World did, there is a high possibility that we will be sucked into the polar night again in the no-man's land?" After hearing what Lin Xian said, Hu Lushou's legs went weak. He didn't want to go through that nightmare experience again.

"There are no holes in this world. We have all seen S-level scouts. I won't be surprised if something strange happens again." Qian Dele is very open-minded: "Anyway, I like trains more and more now. I don't have to worry about anything. The engine is running at full speed. If there is a problem, I will solve it. The worst case scenario is death~"

On the Longshan No. 1 side, Shi Diyuan and Ning Jing, along with a group of cadres, also urgently analyzed the situation that Lin Xian had mentioned. Shi Diyuan also pressed the communicator and said, "No matter what, in order to avoid more trouble, it is better to run early than late. Let's enter Quancheng as soon as possible and make plans for the next step!"

At the Infinity Information Center, the backbone members gathered together. Lin Xian said, "We will not stop here. All the convoy sunshades must be kept closed. Do not look outside. We have only one goal, which is to run. Therefore, the entire joint convoy can only work hard to keep an eye on the track and the driving platform at Longshan No. 1. I suggest that more people be assigned, and people with a high Dangling Value Index should be assigned to keep an eye on them."

"Don't worry!" Shi Diyuan said arrogantly, "Ning Jing and I will personally watch over them, and Boss Hu, Captain Lu, Captain Xie, and the rest of you should follow closely behind!"

"OK."

"clear!"

It was still dark and the tense atmosphere was building. On the Infinity side, Lin Xian said to everyone, "Don't let your guard down before entering Quancheng. Everyone, stay alert at your posts."

Everyone nodded, and Li Yi and Liang Lei took the lead in saying, "Don't worry, Captain Lin, we will take good care of the living compartment."

"Us too." Luo Yang and Shu Qin also responded.

What followed was a continuous escape. Lin Xian did not make too many arrangements. The key personnel began to return to the carriages to be on guard, while he started to manufacture an 1130 close-in defense gun in carriage No. 12.

There are three weapon stations on the Infinity now. Except for the electromagnetic railgun in car 2, only the weapon station in car 12 is still vacant. Luo Yang and Xiaobai live here. Lin built the automatic weapon platform on the roof here yesterday and is waiting to manufacture an 1130 close-in defense gun as a priority.

The Infinity currently has two electromagnetic railguns and one close-in defense gun. The defense of the middle carriage is not sufficient. The functions of the electromagnetic railgun and 1130 are completely different. Once encountering dense groups of monsters or extremely fast strange bodies, the 30mm tungsten core armor-piercing shells of the Wanfa Cannon will be needed to strangle the impulse energy of carbon-based creatures!

This communication with Chu Yan was the longest in several times, and it was also the closest time for the two of them. However, Lin Xian now had a sense of crisis in his nose and did not dare to hesitate.

As for what Chu Yan and the six people were doing at the Bailu Starry Sky Observatory and their purpose of going deep into the Star Abyss, these were not what he needed to care about now. As long as it was clear that this group of people was still in the human camp, it didn't matter. Sooner or later, Lin Xian would find the reason for that kind of consciousness connection!

Countless materials flew out of his hands to make the light curtain, and the second 1130 of Infinity began to be assembled.

Meanwhile, in carriage No. 13, a group led by Shuqin were using a fully automatic bullet press to load ammunition. The 1130 in carriage No. 21 currently had three bases of ammunition in reserve. Even so, each round of ammunition only lasted '7 seconds'. The so-called '7 seconds' was a real man's life. With this 7 seconds of firepower, even a tide of snow monsters could be wiped out!

The train roared forward, and the sandstorm seemed to cover an area of ​​hundreds of kilometers. After driving for more than three hours, the sky outside was still filled with yellow sand and gravel as sharp as knives.

In the frequency bands of each convoy, except for the automobile convoy, there was silence. The combined train rushed quietly in the no-man's land, and it was impossible to tell day from night, east from west, south from east, and west from west. In all the carriages, there was only the sound of gravel cutting the armor plates and the rolling of iron wheels. Sparks flew on the tracks. The fleeing convoy of more than 5,000 people started their urgent escape on the eve of dawn, and no one dared to speak.

At 9:30 am, dawn arrived.

The black sandstorm turned into a thick, dim sky. In the cockpit of Longshan No. 1, Shi Diyuan was sitting in the middle. Several engineering troop members were staring at the orbital detector and radar nervously. Nothing could be seen clearly outside the portholes, not even the tracks ahead. They could only navigate with the help of instruments. Even so, everyone's hearts were lifted. With such a high-speed rush and a 15-kilometer-long joint convoy, once the track ahead was damaged or a huge rock blocked the road, a devastating derailment accident would follow!

Boom!

At this extremely tense moment, a loud noise suddenly sounded in the middle carriage of Longshan No. 1. The kinetic resonance caused the entire train to shake violently. The inside of the carriage roared, as if something was hitting the outside of the carriage.

Shi Diyuan immediately pressed the communicator and shouted: "What's going on?!"

"Boss, there's something outside!" A response came from carriage No. 20.

Boom!

There was another sound, this time it was outside carriage No. 38, which was the living carriage. The team members' faces changed drastically, and the team members with weapons all stood up at this moment. They could feel that it seemed that some creature had hit the grille armor outside the car.

"Abai!"

Ning Jing had already rushed to Abai and Xiaoqing's carriage. Abai was already standing in the corridor, pointing to the rear carriage.

“There is… a monster!”

Beep beep.

At the same time, in the Infinity carriage No. 3, the light warning device installed inside the Hell Black Chrysanthemum Cultivation Chamber made a buzzing sound. Ding Junyi, who was working seriously, raised his eyes slightly and immediately picked up the communicator on the table to inform the whole car.

"We've been dark marked, level 3!"

In carriage No. 13, just as Lin Xian heard Director Ding's message, there was a loud bang on the side of the carriage!

Boom!

In an instant, the high manganese steel armor layer of the Sun in carriage No. 13 was dented directly inwards, and several bulletproof glass windows shattered. Lin Xian's 1130 installation was still at the last critical moment, and he immediately shouted

"Luo Yang!"

Luo Yang immediately rushed up at this moment. Wearing power armor, he tore off the shattered glass fragments, and looked directly into the wind and sand outside through the grille armor with his red eyes.

Buzz!

A beam of energy vibrated out, and the dim sand vortex outside emitted a dark red explosion. In an instant, a roar several times sharper than a sandstorm came from outside, carrying with it a large amount of dark invading force that directly caused the lighting circuits in the car to flicker!

"It's a weird body!!!"

The biological capture equipment of Luo Yang's power armor was running rapidly, and alarms kept coming from the sandstorm outside!

Woo!

At this time, the electromagnetic rail guns in carriages No. 2 and No. 6 of the Infinity had been raised, and the 1130 close-in defense gun in carriage No. 21 and the fire control radars of the Gatling guns were also turned on by KIKI at the first opportunity.

"There's a big guy outside, it seems there's more than one!"

Instantly, the signal that the convoy was attacked spread everywhere, and Lin Xian pressed the frequency band: "Boss Hu, Captain Lu, on the right side, watch out for the attack!"

“Ahhhhhhhh!!!” Hu Lushou’s face turned pale when he heard Lin Xian’s words. In the car ahead, Sun Chang had already picked up two arc pulse cannons, and the energy beams on her arms began to charge

"One o'clock, giant body, ready to fire!"

Woo! Zi!

On the Infinity's side, the two electromagnetic railguns had already accurately turned their bases in the hurricane's sandstorm, the fire control radar was locked, the main guns were raised upwards, and in an instant, two azure beams blasted out!

Bang bang!

The ionization shock was instantly swallowed up by the sandstorm. In the yellow sand, Lin Xian seemed to hear the sound of some huge force running, and even the earth was shaking. At this time, a terrifying black shadow was approaching the train quickly in the yellow sand. Amid the whistling wind, KIKI's information center sentry system immediately captured a claw several meters wide that was swinging across!

Bang!

The roof of the Infinity armored vehicle experienced a huge earthquake, and the arc pulse string vibrators on the right side of carriages 10-12 responded at the same time. Dazzling ionized sparks burned the air, and even the gravel next door melted into red liquid.

Even so, the entire Infinity train seemed to be hit by a polarizing force as strong as a mountain. Several carriages tilted sideways, and the steel-armored connecting frames at the connection between the carriages made metallic whimpering sounds and rasping noises!

Not only the Infinity, but also the Longshan No. 1, the Joker convoy behind, and the middle section of the United Train, all reported danger at the same time.

In the information center of Carriage No. 2, KIKI looked solemn as he quickly used the Sentinel system combined with the optoelectronic sighting radar to capture the unknown creature outside, and gradually began to detect a partial silhouette of the torso.

"Be careful, there's a huge humanoid figure, at least thirty meters tall!"

After KIKI finished speaking, he immediately stood up and prepared to take action.

In carriage No. 6, Dalou and Brother Huo are also fully armed.

"We have our own people behind us, be careful not to burn them." Dalou reminded Brother Huo at this time.

Brother Huo's face was stern and he nodded immediately.

Carriage No. 13, the wind whistled sharply through the broken window, and sand was surging. Several PX05 robots had already prepared the newly manufactured 1130 ammunition compartments. Lin Xian's face was solemn at this moment. His left hand was speeding up the manufacturing, and his right hand was accumulating energy towards the window, ready to take action at any time!

"Captain Lin, here we come!"

Bang bang!

There was a loud earth-shaking sound, and the huge body seemed to be running wildly in the sandstorm, rushing towards the Infinity.

At the same time, all the aimable weapons of the entire joint train have opened fire, flames shot up into the sky in the sandstorm, and countless yellow sand whirlpools were surging.

Just as the black shadow was rushing towards Lin Xian's carriage No. 13, with a bang, the new 1130 in Lin Xian's hand finally completed the final manufacturing and assembly. The magazine motor started, the roof opened, and the 1130 close-in defense gun rose quickly. While the entire gun body was still emitting residual heat, the gun had already been put online and fired!

beep!!!!

A full metal rain poured out in an instant, 11 30mm gun barrels roared at a crazy speed of 166 rounds per second, and the metal torrent composed of tungsten core armor-piercing bullets was like a thunder spear thrown by the gods, splitting a red line of fire on the roof!

The huge body that was rapidly approaching in the sandstorm was now facing the firepower head-on. As soon as the huge claws broke through the wind, they were pierced by the tungsten steel bullet with an initial velocity of 1150 meters per second and turned into powder, turning into a piece of black debris.

In an instant, a piercing howl of pain shook the steel floor of the train compartment. The monster's claws that disappeared in an instant seemed to make it feel pain. Just when Luo Yang and Lin Xian thought they had suppressed the monster outside, the sandstorm sky outside the window suddenly began to darken visibly. A small black hole that swallowed the tide seemed to appear in the sky in the distance, and the dim yellow sand became even darker at this moment.

Seeing this scene, Lin Xian and Luo Yang subconsciously felt that something was wrong. The giant entity was using some kind of means!

"Fire Fist!"

boom!

Who would have known that the next moment, a giant fireball exploded in the yellow sand vortex of the sandstorm, and the rolling flames seemed to be swept away by the yellow sand and spread and bloomed. Suddenly, a red flame cloud with a diameter of hundreds of meters appeared. The huge amount of hot air shook away the surrounding yellow sand and dust, and intermittent windless areas appeared in this area.

At this time, Lin Xian, Luo Yang, everyone on the Infinity, and Lu Xingchen who was standing on the roof of the train all saw the huge black body in the Gobi Desert on the right side of the train.

It was seen to be in a humanoid shape with electricity surging through its body. Its damaged right claw was recovering under a strange energy. At the same time, this huge body was floating up under this power, flying side by side with the train. In the position of its head, there was a huge hole with a black and sticky light mist condensing.

The direction being aimed at is exactly Infinity!
