[Amplification Completed] Congratulations on successfully amplifying Surge (Rare) (Level 3, Full Level) to: [Superstring Reactor Phase Rainbow Ring]!

A large number of Mechanical Heart light screens flashed in front of Lin Xian's eyes. Lin Xian looked at the time. It was now 03:40 in the morning. They came out of the Star Abyss Polar Night at around 18:00, which means that he slept for 9 hours. During this time, not only did the Heterogeneous Rubik's Cube transform a large number of mechanical source points, but his superstring reactor phase rainbow ring finally completed the amplification!

Seeing this scene, Lin Xian's expression suddenly became eager and excited. Without thinking, he tried to start it directly!

Buzz!

There was a low-frequency air vibration, and in an instant Lin Xian discovered that the dim train bedroom began to emit a blue light. Through the reflection of the window, Lin Xian was shocked to find that a phase rainbow ring like the core reactor of Unit 01 appeared behind him, and ultra-high-density energy fluctuations surged. Lin Xian only felt that a powerful power energy was transmitted to his hands through the rainbow ring that looked like a "Dharma Light Wheel". Not only that, at this moment he seemed to be connected to the entire Infinity power source, and all the engines in the car roared at this moment!

Electric arcs surged behind him, piercing through the air and slowly moving some metal objects in the bedroom. Woo~ Lin Xian's mind stopped and he immediately looked at his hands in surprise.

"This is a portable reactor!?"

It is difficult to describe Lin Xian’s mood at this moment. It is as if his previous ability to drive the train has been magnified and concretized!

“Awesome!”

"We have already reached half of the mechanical source points. It shouldn't be long before we can perform the second mechanical awakening."

Just as Lin Xian was sighing with emotion, Chen Sixuan, who felt the vibration of the train engine, pushed open the door. Seeing Lin Xian's spirited energy, the worry on her face immediately turned into eagerness. She quickly took two steps instead of three and rushed forward and threw herself into Lin Xian's arms.

"You finally woke up. You scared me to death last night."

Lin Xian knew that she was talking about the thrilling scene in Xingyuan, and responded

"I almost got scared too. There are all kinds of monsters in Xingyuan, but there are no zombies. I'm really worried about them."

Chen Sixuan sneered at his words, burying her head in his neck and laughing with her shoulders twitching. Both of them seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and felt extremely relaxed at the moment.

"Is there something wrong?"

"Yes, but let me hold you for a while longer." Chen Sixuan hugged Lin Xian tightly, closed her eyes and whispered

"It's been so difficult along the way. Living requires more courage than dying. I don't know how you managed to hold on under those circumstances."

Lin Xian was slightly moved, and the scene of the terrifying Star Abyss Overlord in the sky that he saw before observing the Colossus appeared in his mind. He said, "I was thinking at the time that it would be very exciting if I could escape from the mouth of such a monster."

“It’s quite exciting.”

"What's going on now?"

"Not yet. Silent City does not act in the dark, so now we are parked at the edge of Luling Forest. Mochizuki Shinji sent someone to recall City No. 2. He brought us a message, saying that you can go directly to him after you wake up, or go for a walk in the city first. The other convoys and Brother Shi will be free to move around after they have prepared the convoys. Most people should be in City No. 2 now..."

Lin Xian's heart was slightly moved when he heard this. To be honest, he felt lonely and tired after running all the way. He enjoyed the sense of security in the dark night of apocalypse while zombies were rampant outside while he was staying in the safe armored compartment. At the same time, he also missed the bustling city life. It has been a long time since he saw such a 'non-apocalyptic' city, and it was a mechanical city. Lin Xian was also a little curious.

"Lin Xian."

"Um."

"What are your plans next?" Chen Sixuan raised her head from his shoulder and looked at him.

Chen Sixuan's eyes were filled with not only concern and distress, but also a desire for a moment of respite.

Lin Xian naturally saw through her thoughts, took a deep breath, looked back at the huge mechanical city, and said leisurely:

"I don't have any plans. Silent City will go to Jinhai with us next. We can just take a ride and take a good rest against this big tree. We saved 100,000 people in Silent City. Mochizuki Shinji, shouldn't he thank me?"

"Are you going to ask him to help you modify the all-terrain drive?" Chen Sixuan asked

"No." Lin Xian smiled faintly, stretched his waist and said: "I have a longer-term plan now. Didn't I tell you before that I hope the train can soar into the sky?"

Chen Sixuan looked surprised: "Are you planning to turn the Infinity into a flying train?"

Lin Xian's eyes were full of stars. Shinji Mochizuki's words before had completely moved him. Now that he had a portable reactor phase rainbow ring and relied on the mechanical city of Silent City, he could completely transform the Infinite Train Plan.

"To be precise... it's the Starry Sky Train!"

Space-based weapons, starship cannons, mechanical cities, drone swarms, digital life, flesh-and-blood colonies, his mechanical abilities have endless room for imagination and expansion.

"Zizizi... Phoenix Global Report, at 23:17 yesterday (UTC+0), the Phoenix European Theater "Reykjavik 12-Nation Joint Rescue Center" successfully completed the strategic transfer and escaped from the impact range of the No. 10 Star Abyss Tidal Storm. During the transfer, it encountered a joint attack by the No. 15 S-Class Weird Entity [Earth Surge] and the No. 16 S-Class Weird Entity [Cordova]. It has been confirmed that the cumulative casualties of this operation reached 112,479 (including civilians and combatants). At present, the survivors have been safely transferred to the preset shelter area, and medical and logistical support work is being carried out in an orderly manner."

"The Phoenix Society has announced globally that the [Blood Essence Purification - Cold Dark Particle Separation] project led by the "Alpine Watcher" research team in the European theater has made a breakthrough. The research team has successfully extracted stable chemical energy "dark energy" from cold dark particles for the first time, and verified that it has an air purification efficiency of 18% against dark invasion toxins. This discovery marks a key step for mankind in dealing with dark invasions. The Phoenix Society has joined forces with global branches to start in-depth research on "dark energy". The relevant technology will be used first to isolate the spread of mutations and purify water and food resources..."

"All survivors, please note that the dark invasion purification technology has made substantial breakthroughs. Please maintain your fighting spirit and hope, and uphold order. All of humanity will surely work together to overcome this crisis."

"Zizizi... The Federation's Dawn City has issued a global announcement. Dawn City has successfully annihilated the S-class weird entity 'Gray Fog Giant' with a casualty rate of 0.5%. This is the first time that mankind has won a complete victory in the fight against darkness. At the same time, Dawn City's [Dark Energy Purification Device] has entered the trial operation stage, with a purification efficiency of over 95%. The city already has high-purity drinking water resources reserves and supply. Dawn City is the true light of mankind. In order to jointly resist darkness and build a Dawn security defense line, starting today, the entrance fee for Dawn City citizens will be raised across the board. Each person in the old city area must pay 2 blood essences or equivalent materials per month. The entrance ticket for the Star City Underground City will be raised to 100 blood essences for third-class citizens, 300 blood essences for second-class citizens, and 1,000 blood essences for first-class citizens..."

"Jinhai Free Radio, life and death news-"

[Red Man Ghost Alert]: Confirmed that multiple Red Man Ghost attacks occurred in Jinhai Old Town, and 3 shelters have been destroyed.

[Escape Route]: Survivors please move along the underground drainage system to "Yongcheng Port". Phoenix Outpost No. 9 provides temporary shelter.

[Request for mutual assistance]: Urgent need for medical coagulants and electromagnetic pulse weapons, communication frequency band 145.770MHz.

"All personnel near the Qilian Mountains are to detour immediately. A suspected S-class large strange entity has been discovered at the northern foot of the Qilian Mountains. Dawn City has dispatched troops. There is no confirmed news at the moment!"

"How shameless! Weren't we and the Phoenix Society the first to kill an S-level monster?"

With the signal connection of the large city of Silent City, Infinity once again received information from the Phoenix Order and the Regional Free Radio. In carriage No. 2, KIKI and Director Ding were listening to the radio. Brother Huo and Dalou were sitting in the corner, one on the left and one on the right, listening to KIKI cursing the Federation's shameless behavior.

"Shameless." Brother Huo crossed his arms across his chest, looking angry.

"It's impossible that they don't know that we have killed an S-class in Xilan City." Shuqin frowned and said.

"Of course they know. The Phoenix Society has broadcasted it globally, and many survivors know about it." Sasha huffed, "I think they are just shameless enough."

"Captain Lin!" At this time, Shu Qin saw Lin Xian coming in and immediately spoke happily.

"Lin Xian, how are you?" KIKI turned over from the swivel chair with energy: "Quick, did you hear the broadcast just now?"

"I heard it." Lin Xian walked into Car No. 2 and said, "More than 6 million people, 0.5% means more than 30,000 people died. This is not a small number. Journalism is really a good thing. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Federation just wants to suppress the Phoenix Society and raise the entrance fee at the same time."

After saying that, he looked at Ding Junyi: "Director Ding."

"Um."

"Is the wound on your hand healed?"

"Regarding dark energy, I have already talked to Shinji Mochizuki... Hmm? Hands?"

Ding Junyi thought Lin Xian would ask her about the dark energy mentioned by the Phoenix Order and the Federation, but she didn't expect Lin Xian to be concerned about her health first. This made her feel a little confused. She raised her glasses and reorganized her words.

"Oh, it's... much better."

Lin Xian glanced over and saw that the carriage was filled with purifying energy. The Hell Black Chrysanthemum was constantly transforming, and the inflorescence of the Silver Dragon Hundred Thousand Clowns had disappeared, turning back into a seemingly ordinary disaster plant.

At the same time, Li Yi, Liang Lei, Lao Mo, Xiao Yuan and others also gathered here, apparently waiting for his situation.

Lin Xian said directly: "Don't stay in the carriage, everyone is free to move around, just keep in touch, we don't have any other actions for the time being."

After hearing Lin Xian's words, the others immediately nodded in response with a relaxed expression.

"good!"

"Captain Lin, I'll notify them right away."

"Silent City is doing blood sperm trading. Should we also make some preparations?" Chen Sixuan also said at this time.

"Okay." Lin Xian nodded. "I'll go talk to Mochizuki Shinji later. Everyone can go to City No. 2 for a walk. Judging from the current situation, there shouldn't be any fighting tonight."

"All of our marks have been cleared, and now the entire Silent City is in a state of silence." KIKI said, "I heard that Phoenix City has also been in this state, so it has been stable for so long."

Everyone in the team was given a holiday, and at the same time, they all left the team to move around freely. Only Lin Xian and a few others were left in the carriage, still discussing the new news about "dark energy".

In addition, there are two elegant ballet robots, Grace and Dancer 1.

Now the systems and various robots in the car, including Dancer No. 1, are all dispatched through Grace, and Grace takes orders directly from Lin Xian.

"Now all major organizations have discovered this chemical energy. The Silent City has used the calculation formula in the No. 5 Star Abyss to do a lot of deductions on this energy. Combined with the progress of the Phoenix Order, the 18% purification level should be reasonable."

Ding Junyi looked at Grace: "Mochizuki Shinji told me his formula, and I also asked Grace's intelligent brain to deduce it. This chemical energy does have the effect of purifying the invasion of darkness. To be precise, this dark energy actually comes from the power of darkness. We can understand it as a broader form of cold dark particles."

"But this power has not yet been found to contain the material, so it only exists in blood essence and darkness."

“So Dawn City wants to collect more blood essence. Have they really gotten 95% of it done?” Chen Sixuan frowned.

"impossible."

KIKI was full of disbelief: "It sounds fake."

"I think so too. This is too ridiculous." Sasha echoed.

Ding Junyi put her hands in her pockets and said calmly, "In theory, if we can purify 95% of the dark invasion, it means that humans can survive in the darkness, almost eliminating the spread of "mutation", while keeping water and food clean. Without considering biological disasters such as weird bodies, the Federation's underground city is the best choice for human civilization."

"Oh~" KIKI shook her head while sitting on the swivel chair: "That's what I said, I just want to promote myself as the light of mankind, but I don't understand, will the people in Dawn City believe it?"

"Uh...it doesn't seem to matter whether the people in Dawn City believe it or not." The usually taciturn Dasha said something sharp at this time: "This must be for those who haven't entered the city and haven't paid yet."

Lin Xian smiled: "Yes, find a reason for the price increase."

"Grace, are you here to see?" Lin Xian looked at the intelligent brain Grace.

[From a rational point of view, if Dawn City has achieved a 95% purification rate of the dark invasion, it will be a good thing for all mankind.]

Grace's words made everyone come back to their senses.

“That’s true…”

Grace continued, "The current major dilemma facing humanity can be divided into three major categories. The first one is the dark invasion toxins that grow in the dark night from 13 star abysses around the world. It is the main cause of extinction events such as human mutation, vegetation death, and water pollution. At the same time, it is also the inducement of superpower and gene evolution. Therefore, in-depth research on dark invasion is not only to find the cause and path of superpower evolution, but also the key to solving the crisis of human environmental adaptation and survival."

[The second is all non-human races, including world-class disasters, astral creatures, and dark weird entities. After the dark mark was discovered, humans have initially mastered the enemy's attack mode, from the initial unconscious escape to purposeful silent avoidance, which has changed the current situation of survival.]

【The third is the expansion of the polar night of the Star Abyss that covers the entire world. Through the investigation of Star Abyss No. 5, it seems that this is a planetary transformation project of the Blue Planet by multi-dimensional creatures. Humans currently have no means of resistance. At the same time, this is also an irreversible state, because if the entire world is swallowed by the Star Abyss, even if humans have adapted to the invasion of darkness, they will have no way out in the face of the hunting of strange bodies, and there is no point in avoiding the marks.】

[Based on comprehensive analysis, the most ideal survival plan for humans at present is to escape via interstellar spacecraft. The current civilization technology has the cryostat technology to carry out galactic expeditions.]

Grace looked at Lin Xian and said in a flat mechanical female voice: [Conducting a galaxy expedition is the best way to preserve the fire of human civilization.]

【Final Solution】!
