Chapter 427 Hiding in the Darkness (Seeking monthly tickets at the end of the month~)
boom!
Accompanied by a loud crash, a black heavy train rushed out from the ruins of the collapsed Haiyan West railway station. At the same time, three 1130 and three G3 electromagnetic railguns with shields deployed on the roof opened fire at the same time, crushing and blasting away the strange creatures such as the Red Bone that were surrounding them from all sides, and then drove into the city track with a violent momentum towards the city center.
After breaking away from the main track, the Infinity resumed its rail transport and drive. Thousands of tons of trains rolled on the tracks, sparks flew from the iron wheels, and steel hummed. High in the sky, Sasha drove the Flying Peach and bombed past. Fires and smoke filled the air beside the tracks.
The explosion-proof door of carriage No. 5 of the train opened. The building, Lu Chang, Shu Qin, and Luo Yang, wearing power armor and holding weapons, opened fire at the strange creatures chasing on both sides of the railway. Ryunosuke even flew over the roof of the train and controlled powerful telekinesis waves to suppress all monsters that blocked the train's progress.
17:23
"With less than 50 minutes left, the markings we have now are persistent and cannot be completely removed."
Inside the cockpit, Chen Sixuan observed the battle situation outside the porthole and solemnly shouted into the communicator, "Before we go underground, we have to do a big cleanup!"
"By the way, can I use 100,000 Silver Dragons?" Qian Dele's voice came.
As soon as the voice fell, Ding Junyi, who was working in carriage 3, responded directly: "No, the new flower buds have not yet formed."
"What should we do? These monsters... although there are not many, it seems like they are endless." Sasha, who was flying a mecha bomber in the air, said nervously as she watched strange figures continue to appear on the streets and buildings in all directions.
"We can use the same method we used in the snowfield before."
Chen Sixuan said on the channel at this time: "I looked and saw that there is an interchange platform for freight and subway branches in front of the University Town Station. We can stop there and find the right opportunity to complete it all at once."
call out.
At the rear of the car, Monica was in command. She blasted away several monsters with her sword. The green bio-force fields on those monsters kept flickering, and even the orbital electromagnetic cannons could not penetrate them completely. They needed multiple concentrated fires to kill them. At this time, Monica said
"These aren't snow monsters. There are too many of them, and we can't guarantee we'll be able to eliminate them in a short time."
"That's right, these guys' defense is really abnormal. They can actually defend against the heavy machine gun sweep..." Lu Chang looked incredulous.
Shuqin and the building worked together to focus their fire on a Split-Tailed Man. A high-explosive bomb blew it up, and the defensive force field on its body flickered. She seized the opportunity and hit it with a pulse heavy artillery, smashing the upper body of the monster on the spot, and its flesh was splattered on the buildings on the roadside.
"Their biological force field has its limits. Continuous attacks will overload it, or it can be broken by attacking with an energy density higher than the force field." Shuqin immediately said to Xiaoyuan and Miaolu, who were operating the train's weapon station in carriage 2, "Adjust your attack method. Let the onboard weapons concentrate their fire and annihilate them before switching targets!"
"Okay!" Xiao Yuan immediately adjusted the situation. Miao Lu, who was standing by, also helped with the arrangements. She then said, "Why hasn't Viola returned yet? The signal chain is completely disconnected."
"Captain Lin asked Viola to explore the route along the track chain. It looks like she won't be back before dark." Xiaoyuan said.
Swish!
Just when Shuqin and the building killed a split-tailed man, a high-speed flying figure broke through the air. Sun Yuzhen was wearing a set of flying armor specially made by Lin Xian. In addition to the wings, it also came with a missile launch system. She landed directly on the wall, and six spider-like mechanical arms extended from her back and nailed to the wall. Then she took out a special container to collect a ball of flesh and blood, and flew out again before several monsters pounced on her.
"What is this for?!"
In carriage No. 7, Qian Dele opened the door and kicked a red bone away. When he saw Sun Yuzhen flying back, he asked curiously.
"Director Ding wanted it. He said he wanted to study this kind of biological force field." After Sun Yuzhen said this, she immediately folded her wings and ran quickly towards carriage No. 3.
Qian Dele shrugged and said, "Well, it would be great if all our trains could have this kind of defensive force field. It's more powerful than steel armor."
"There are at least forty or fifty of these biological field-bearing daylight creatures out there right now. At this rate, if we stop, we'll only have two minutes to attack." Sasha, soaring through the air, used her mecha's computer to calculate data, saying, "And the number seems to be increasing in our direction. Maybe... we won't have even two minutes."
“One minute is enough!”
Bang!
A dazzling sniper beam exploded, and the door to the Infinity's cockpit opened. Chen Sixuan, holding the Night Hunter, which was taller than her, fired a plasma confinement cannon, instantly piercing a Split Tail and a Red Bone, blasting a hideous bloody hole the size of a washbasin in their bodies. "Woo!" Chen Sixuan's face was cold at this time. She pressed the Night Hunter's energy rewind button and said in the headset:
"Ryunosuke."
"Please give me your orders!" Ryunosuke's voice was hoarse but respectful.
"After we arrive at the loading station, there's a cargo area to the north. I need you to use your abilities to gather all the monsters within your sight into one area. Ideally, the range should not exceed 10 meters. Can you do that?"
Ryunosuke pondered for a second after hearing this, and then immediately said, "If we just want to catch each other, it's okay."
"good."
Chen Sixuan continued, "Everyone gather on the right side of the train. After Ryunosuke takes control, everyone will focus their fire. Sasha, Madoka, the Flying Peach, and the Infinity will prepare their firepower deployment. We need to launch a full-scale concentrated bombardment."
"Then it's Luo Yang, Monica, you guys finish off your abilities, and the others will just provide the firepower."
"good!"
"Sounds like that."
"Okay, Captain Chen."
"Also," Chen Sixuan said to Xiaoyuan, "Prepare to deploy a Storm Eye F12 supersonic air-to-ship missile. Also, deploy the Hyperion directional restraint cannon that Lin Xian prepared. If the situation isn't resolved within a minute, use this super weapon."
Xiao Yuan immediately responded, "I understand."
"Wow, I forgot about the space-based weapon Brother Lin prepared~" Sasha's eyes lit up when she heard it: "With this thing, we can definitely kill these guys instantly."
"Not bad, multiple insurances." Qian Dele responded with a sigh of relief: "This should be fine now."
Monica's voice rang out over the communication band upon hearing this: "Let's try our best to handle it. It's only a Level 2 mark right now. It would be a waste to use the Hyperion Directional Confinement Cannon on all these monsters."
"Yes, this thing can pose a threat even to S-level enemies, so we should use it with caution." Shu Qin agreed.
Chen Sixuan immediately responded, "I know, so it's a backup plan. We're almost at the loading station. Everyone, brace yourself. We must defeat them in one blow and clear out the Dark Mark!"
"good!"
Everyone responded in unison.
Wuuwuwu, the heavy train roared along the main track, the steel trembled, and a lot of sticky blood of strange creatures appeared on the Infinity's new outer armor. The 1130 close-in defense gun and the electromagnetic rail gun on the roof fired alternately. The hot barrage tore through the air and concentrated fire to eliminate the Red Bone and Split Tail people who were rushing towards them, but the frequency had been reduced.
Miao Lu in the car has deployed PX-05 robots for a new round of loading. The PX-05 robots are lined up, and the robotic arms accurately deliver 1130 shells to the gun positions. The metal collision sounds of the ammunition boxes and the hissing of steam pressure relief are intertwined, preparing for the next outpouring of firepower.
The number of these monsters that roamed during the day was greater than imagined. The biological force fields on their bodies flickered in the artillery fire, like the phosphorescence of evil spirits. Squeak, just as the fire exploded, Chen Sixuan began to control the train to slow down. At the end of the rusty rails ahead, an abandoned freight loading station stood in the sunset like the skeleton of a giant beast.
"The mark remains at level 2." Ding Junyi's calm voice came.
The scene of the freight station passed by the porthole. Rotting containers were piled under the collapsed awning, and the rusted gantry crane was stuck diagonally on the ground like a broken spine. In the setting sun, the platform was covered with dried blood, scattered corpses and all kinds of garbage.
"All those coming from the north and south are gathering here!" Sasha's "Flying Peach" bomber flew over the platform, and the shadow of its wings swept across the peeling "No Fireworks" slogan on the wall.
The train screeched to a halt, its steel hinges groaning harshly.
"Ryunosuke!" Chen Sixuan found the right opportunity and gave the order immediately.
"Yes, sir." As the voice rang out, Ryunosuke flew up from the roof of the car. He raised his hand and grabbed in the air, directly breaking open an open area in the center of a collapsed warehouse of the loading station. All the metal components and beams were scattered. Then he turned around and captured every monster that was gathering towards Infinity with his eyes. With a precise grab, he captured them all in mid-air and threw them directly towards the center of the warehouse.
With a buzzing sound, the biological force fields of those strange bodies flickered, and the mental ripples exploded with him as the center. The air seemed to be stirred by an invisible giant hand. Ryunosuke did not waste time and began to gather these monsters directly like throwing sandbags.
"Everyone concentrate your fire!"
At this time, the turrets of Infinity's multiple weapon stations had changed direction, and everyone who had been prepared already opened fire at the same time.
beep!!
Bullets from the three 1130s poured out instantly, and the ammunition chains weaved a crimson waterfall. The blue light of the electromagnetic cannon penetrated the cluster of monsters. The metal storm of tens of thousands of tungsten-gold armor-piercing shells and the light of the electromagnetic railgun shone at the same time. In the sky, Sasha, who was driving a mecha bomber, had directly fired a blue beam of star-shaking cannon and dived down with two high-explosive cannons!
"Fire with all your strength!"
Boom! On the Infinity carriage, a black missile exploded and rose into the air, then streaked a bright line of fire across the sky. The Storm Eye F12 missile swooped down with a tail flame, and the shock wave lifted the container wreckage to a height of thirty meters.
At the same time, Luo Yang's blast wave, Monica's sonic sword, the building, Chen Sixuan, Shu Qin, and Lu Chang's firepower also poured out at full force!
At this moment, the loading platform on the right side of the Infinity almost turned into a sea of fire in an instant. The strange body thrown by Ryunosuke seemed to be thrown into a fire meat grinder. Those powerful biological force fields just flashed and immediately turned into fragments in this violent firepower. With the exquisite coordination of the masters in the Infinity, these monsters were blown into pieces before they could even resist.
"Level 1 mark!" In carriage No. 3, Ding Junyi was paying attention to the soul-dangling value detector and the Hell Black Chrysanthemum at the same time. She released her affinity to allow the Hell Black Chrysanthemum to continuously absorb the black smoke left after death outside the car, and then stared at the red light on the petals.
“Almost there!”
When Chen Sixuan fired the Dark Hunter, she kept an eye on Ding Junyi's feedback. The moment the value of the dark mark returned to zero on the terminal screen, she immediately pushed the driving lever.
"Full speed ahead, Ryunosuke give it a push, Qian Dele, use the enemy attractant, Luo Yang, have your mecha scout ahead and prepare to enter the underground track!"
"good!"
"clear!"
Under the command of Chen Sixuan, Ryunosuke dropped directly from the sky, raised his hand and used his control to grab the entire body of the Infinity, and then pushed it forward suddenly!
boom!
In an instant, everyone in the train felt a huge push on their backs. This heavy train weighing thousands of tons suddenly rushed out hundreds of meters on the main track. Sparks flew from the iron wheels, and the roar of the engine directly increased the speed to the fastest.
At the same time, Qian Dele took out a simple version of the device that Lin Xian had made to scan Gaidi's attractant, and used his super speed to jump off the Infinity. He flew several streets away and detonated it, attracting the strange bodies that had been marked by their darkness in another direction, completely clearing the retreat route.
Soon, under the setting sun, a descending track appeared in front of the main line, which was the passage into the city's subway. At this time, Luo Yang, in a holographic mask, controlled the mecha and flying drones and launched them using the jet system. Several robots and dozens of drones rushed into the darkness first.
"Going underground again, what a terrible experience." Qian Dele, who had returned to the car at high speed, looked at the dark passage ahead. Due to the power outage, there was no light in the tunnel, and it looked like a pitch-black abyss. They had previously faced the collapse of the underground tunnel when they escaped from Yijin City late at night. The train was underneath, giving people a contradictory feeling of both safety and danger. However, when he thought of the giant ocean god he had seen during the day, Qian Dele felt that hiding underground was not a bad idea...
Wow~
The moment the Infinity rushed into the tunnel, darkness enveloped it like asphalt. The headlights revealed that the tunnel walls were covered with dried black blood. The tunnel was filled with the bodies of various dead zombies, and the sound of bones breaking under the iron wheels made it obvious that no "living creature" had entered here for a long time.
The damp and rotten smell mixed with the smell of blood poured into the ventilation system. Xiaoyuan retched and closed the rooftop weapon station, returning the Infinity to a sealed state.
"What a terrible smell..." Miao Lu frowned.
"Quickly check the sealing status." Xiaoyuan said nervously at this time
The Infinity has the modification level to become an underwater sealed cabin, but the weapon station must be retracted to be completely sealed. At this time, after Miao Lu pressed the internal air purification cycle, the two finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Monica entered the cockpit and looked out the porthole with Chen Sixuan into the tunnel. Sticky droplets dripped from the top of the tunnel, as if it had been moldy for a long time. Because it was an island, the air was very humid, and the tunnel was filled with a sticky, smelly wind. "Those things are hiding underground. We might run into them directly."
"If they're just one or two, we have to deal with them immediately. As long as we don't mark them before dark, we'll be safe hiding here." Chen Sixuan was looking at the driving map. "The air defense inspection section is just ahead. Monica, everything underground depends on your and Luo Yang's perception. If there's any movement, deal with it immediately."
"Don't worry." Monica looked at Chen Sixuan meaningfully, then smiled slightly: "You are becoming more and more powerful."
Chen Sixuan did not respond directly when she heard this.
Not long after, the train slowly slid into a maintenance section away from the main tunnel. The rusty maintenance platform was filled with moldy explosion-proof boxes. After stopping the train, Lu Chang and Dalou immediately jumped off the train and poured deodorant on both sides of the track all the way to the entrance of the maintenance section. The pungent smell of chemicals temporarily suppressed the stench.
Luo Yang and Shasha immediately began to deploy defense equipment at the entrance, and arranged for patrol drones to go deep into the darkness.
Some secret signal drones were deployed outside the university station in the form of data links to contact Lin Xian and Viola. At this time, Chen Sixuan quickly came to carriage No. 3 and asked Ding Junyi.
"How about it?"
Ding Junyi's eyes glowed green, and the affinity of plant power returned from the regional black chrysanthemum. She immediately said to Chen Sixuan, "It's cleared. The black chrysanthemum hasn't sensed any other threats. We should enter silence now."
Beep beep.
At this moment, the alarm of darkness sounded in the carriage.
Chen Sixuan took a deep breath and turned around to look at all the carriages: "Seal the doors and turn off the lights!"
Bang~
Instantly, the lights on the Infinity train went out, and white smoke belched out from the pressure relief valves under the wheels. As the engine was turned off, the heavy train was perfectly hidden in the darkness.
Outside the maintenance section, deep in the two ends of the underground main track, strange noises were heard, sometimes far away, sometimes near, and the cold rails trembled from time to time.
On the ground, the signal base station deployed by Luo Yang was flashing a faint green signal light on the ruins.
18:12
A mysterious light flashed across the sky, and darkness fell!
