Chapter 520 Mechanical Torrent
"What?!!!"
"accelerate?!"
"Isn't that the Great Rift Valley ahead?!"
Instantly, hundreds of convoy captains' horrified voices exploded in the command channel. They couldn't understand why, with a bottomless abyss ahead, they not only didn't stop but also accelerated forward. Had they gone mad?
"It's Lin Xian!"
Upon hearing the voice on the communication frequency, Chen Sixuan's tightly furrowed brows instantly relaxed.
"Everyone calm down. Lin Xian is the Doomsday Swordholder. He alone is worth a hundred Steel Refinery rail factories. Since he made this decision, he must be confident!"
Jiang Yun's side responded immediately, directly calling out to Lei Zhen and He Linqiu's convoys from the Republican Alliance.
"Lei Zhen, Captain He, your convoy of cars behind you, as instructed by Captain Lin, maintain a safe distance and proceed side by side!"
When Lei Zhen heard this voice, his mind went blank. He knew Lin Xian's strength, but asking his convoy of cars to brave the thick fog and rush towards the cliff was simply insane!
"Boss?!" The underling's face turned pale.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Lei Zhen's expression hardened. "That guy can travel back and forth through the Heavenly Curtain, he definitely wouldn't lie to us!"
After saying that, he immediately picked up the walkie-talkie: "All convoys, keep your distance, five groups abreast, don't fall behind!"
"yes!!"
At the same time, He Linqiu and several other members of large car fleets followed suit and gathered on the left wing!
"Quickly, merge into the lane 15 meters and charge forward!"
"What are they trying to do? Fly over the Grand Canyon?" On the Zhenhai warship, Wu Xiangqun's expression was solemn: "If this super train, which is hundreds of kilometers long, crashes, it will be impossible to stop. All the convoys behind it will be pulled down with it, and there will be no chance of escape!"
"General Luo!"
"Commander!?" He Yifeng, the commander of the 3rd Battle Group who was at the forefront, was also waiting for orders from his superiors.
"Isn't this going too far?" Wang Yong, the commander of the 7th Battle Group, shouted as he charged into battle.
"Two kilometers left, no time!" Li Chongyun, the commander of the Fifth Regiment, shouted urgently!
"General Luo, please trust Lin Xian. Although his method is risky, he must have made the necessary preparations." On the Silver Star, before Jian Xuwei gave the order to accelerate, everyone was waiting for Young Master Luo's decision. Hundreds of convoys and so many trains were lined up in one go. If they did not reach a consensus, the whole thing would fall apart immediately.
"Quiet down!"
Old Luo gripped the communicator, his expression hesitant. This decision would be even more disastrous than Plan No. 3. Millions of people were rushing towards the cliff. Even he had to hesitate, but he also understood that life and death were hanging by a thread at this moment.
He was not afraid of death, but the more than two hundred train convoys were the last survivors who had been scattered and gathered together during the Colorado evacuation. If he made this decision, it was very likely that they would be completely wiped out.
drop!
Just then, his Phoenix Token received the highest order from the Phoenix Society. Looking at the flashing light, he immediately understood that Lin Xian was the commander-in-chief sent by the Arctic.
At this moment, he dispelled all his concerns. Since the commander trusted him, they would naturally trust him unconditionally as well!
Luo Shaokai's eyes narrowed sharply, and he grabbed the communicator to issue an order.
"All trains, maintain connection. Dragon Kun Thunder Fleet, you will be responsible for the canyon's air defense on the left and right flanks. Firestone, finish up. Silver Star, you will start and accelerate!"
"receive!"
"Assault Regiment, merge to the right flank of the train!!" He Yifeng, commander of the 3rd Battle Regiment, immediately gave the order. Instantly, thousands of tanks from the three main forces at the forefront of the monster tide converged to the right. The resistance firepower was shifted, and the monster tide directly charged onto the oncoming train convoy.
At this moment, fiery clouds rolled in the sky, and the Celestial Train Track Star Cannon and the Zhenhai Ship Anode Magnetic Railgun fell in a cross pattern, like sweeping machines, directly blasting the strange tide in the center to pieces, leaving behind a scorched earth burning with crimson magma.
Huo Ge, Jiang Yun, Qian Dele, Ning Jing, Monica, Ryunosuke and other superpowered individuals landed one after another, activating their superpowers to put up an extreme resistance.
Ah Bai stood on the roof of the Longshan No. 1 vehicle, his laser beams piercing through the crimson fog ahead like searchlights!
"Our captain has arrived, you all just charge forward!" Lu Xingchen unleashed a fiery punch to clear the way, his hearty laughter seemingly drowning out even the artillery fire.
"This is insane! Is this the mad swordsman?"
The crowd in Utopia was in an uproar. Sean stood among the core members, trying to calm his tense breathing: "Is he planning to make us fly over the cliff by sending this train of the century hurtling towards the precipice?"
“It’s impossible. The train line is too long to make an inertial leap, and besides…” Jenny, the assistant, shook her head.
Sean took a deep breath: "No need to think about it anymore, we have no choice. Prepare for firepower resistance and accelerate across the board!"
"Accelerate!" On the Silver Star, Jian Xuwei calmly issued the order! The Eternal-class nuclear power center unleashed a power output of hundreds of megawatts!
"Accelerate!" Shi Diyuan shouted excitedly from Longshan No. 1, as the firepower of the two-layered doomsday fortresses roared down!
"Accelerate!" Zhou Hongqu of the Rose Car Team responded in unison! Dozens of car teams from the former Infinite Alliance's United Train team shouted in unison!
"Accelerate!" Hundreds of train crews behind, the last doomsday crews from all corners of the country, filled with the courage of a desperate gamble, made the electric locomotive engines roar with sharp screechs!
Nearly three million survivors are now inspired by a courage that defies death!
Ugh!!!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The iron wheels turned, the tracks trembled, and the black doomsday train wound its way across the Rocky Mountain plains like a giant dragon hundreds of kilometers long, bursting into flames and accelerating through the crimson fog.
A barrage of firepower sprayed indiscriminately towards both sides of the tracks, the flames illuminating the terrifying horde of billions of monsters. The various motor transport units and the Iron Guard Brigade began to disperse and divert their forces, forming extreme formations on both sides of the train. In just a few minutes, the ground train group led by the Silver Star, along with the parallel motor transport convoys on both sides, resembled a trident under the blazing sun, its speed suddenly soaring, completely disregarding the monster tide ahead, and charging out at high speed like a sharp sword!
50KM
60KM
70KM
100km!!
The fragile temporary tracks, unable to withstand the strain, emitted a piercing metallic wail. The earth resonated and trembled continuously with the onslaught of the strange tide, and the entire train line charged across the plains amidst sparks and lightning!
Rumble!
The crimson tide seemed to sense something and frantically attacked the parallel train line. The defenses of these trains, stretched to become a long line, were under immense pressure. Under the high-speed rush, they couldn't withstand the onslaught and caused numerous accidents. The giants in the sky treated this migration of survivors as a hunting ground, with countless bizarre creatures taking turns attacking the anti-aircraft fire below. The death toll continued to rise!
However, at this moment, there was no second principle. The convoy of cars was revving up to the floor, the armed men were in a bloodthirsty frenzy, and only the tremors of artillery fire remained in the train carriages.
On the plains of the Rocky Mountains, a blood-and-fire waltz, incredibly tragic and involving millions of people, is unfolding right now!
"Radar detection indicates a rift valley 2000 meters ahead!"
The voice echoed in the ears of the commanders on all sides, and everyone's heart was in their throats.
"A rift valley 1000 meters ahead! 5 seconds left!"
In the command center, Elder Luo, General Li Sheng, and General Zeng Weiguo were all on edge as they stared at the black hole terrain revealed by the radar scan!
That's a super-large rift valley that's over several thousand meters wide!
However, for the other car convoys, all that was in front of their windshields was a thick fog. The drivers were all gripping the steering wheels tightly, accelerating their vehicles forward at top speed as if they were blind.
"God bless! God bless!!" someone was praying.
"Close your eyes!" A mother hugged her child tightly.
"Hold on tight!" Shouts echoed through the carriages.
"What is that?!" The Sky Reconnaissance Team, Xiaoqing and Sasha, flew into the sky and saw a silhouette several hundred meters high slowly rising from the rift valley ahead.
On the Sky Train, Shiori's face was deathly pale: "There's a strange entity ahead, it's S-rank, right in the middle of the canyon!"
"Oh no!" Chen Sixuan's heart sank as she looked at the huge reflective surface outline flashing on the radar screen. She quickly pressed the communicator: "Lin Xian... Lin Xian!"
Boom!
A sudden, earth-shaking sound rang out, and piercing alarms blared simultaneously in all the command posts.
At this moment, Elder Luo and the others also discovered the enemy's situation, and everyone broke out in a cold sweat!
"S-rank, that thing is waiting for us in the canyon?!"
"This is it!"
"Oh shit!"
"Dragon Kun, Thunderclap, all firepower aimed!"
Knock knock knock knock!
At this moment, countless people in the train and car convoy at the forefront saw the two fleets in the sky unleashing a barrage of cannon fire, the dazzling flames burning the sky and creating countless straight lines of fire rushing forward.
In an instant, the cannon fire illuminated the sky, and the gale dispersed the thick fog. Everyone was shocked to see that in front of them was a super cliff that was bottomless and boundless. And what was most despairing was that in the middle of the cliff, an epic monster as big as a mountain was coiled up. Countless undulating tentacles sprayed from under the upside-down octopus head, and the scales on its body shimmered with a pale light.
At that moment, countless people's hearts seemed to skip a beat.
The Silver Star, Dragon Mountain No. 1, Utopia, all the people in the motorcade, the Iron Guard soldiers, even the air fleet soldiers, all went blank for a moment, as if the air itself had frozen.
300 meters!
It just won't stop.
On the cliff, amidst a bizarre, colossal beast, Lei Zhen, riding in a combat truck at the head of the convoy, looked up as the monster, shrouded in mist, lunged at them with its massive tentacles. A chilling despair washed over him; all he could do was open his mouth and roar in fury.
"Fuck your mother..."
However, before he could finish cursing, a golden sun suddenly pierced through the clouds in the sky, transforming into a plasma beam with a diameter of over 500 meters. Like a divine spear of punishment piercing through heaven and earth, it pierced directly down towards the head of the S-class monster!
boom!
When that torrent of energy collided, time seemed to stand still for a moment.
High above the canyon, as if illuminated by the sun, the crimson hue was instantly torn apart. Everyone in the high-speed train and car convoy was blinded by the blazing white beams of light, and the world was plunged into daylight.
The entire train convoy continued in this state, enduring the raging heat and with the edge of the cliff completely obscured.
He resolutely rushed into that light!
"ah!!!"
"ah!"
At this moment, countless people gritted their teeth and shouted, women screamed with their eyes closed, and the survivors clung tightly to everything they could, facing their final fate!
1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds...
The expected feeling of weightlessness from falling off the cliff did not come. At this moment, the people on the trains began to recover from the blinding flashes of light. Some people who had closed their eyes opened them. Apart from the violent heat wave, there was only the clanging sound of the rails.
The convoy of cars on both sides didn't experience any high-speed jumps. Before they could even see the direction clearly, the first thing they noticed was that the road... had become smooth.
The bumpy ride on the desert sand instantly disappeared.
At this moment, countless people looked towards the sky and ahead, disregarding everything, as the light still lingered. Inside the command post, General Luo and other generals also stood up.
Because at that moment, high above that cliff, flying... a train! ? ?
In front of the train, a massive void gate suddenly tore open in the sky, spanning the canyon!
Inside the gate was not a starry sky, but a boiling mechanical inferno. Lin Xian's figure hovered in the center of the mechanical gate, and blue light like a data stream escaped from the gaps in his Black Hawk armor. Behind him, tens of thousands of construction drones surged out like a dam bursting in the Milky Way. The dense tracks, steel plates, supports, and bolts were like an alloy torrent pouring out from the void gate, falling straight to the heavens!
A swarm of drones wove an electromagnetic network a kilometer in diameter in the air. The liquid alloy that had just emerged solidified upon contact with the network, and the 500-meter-long composite track plate pieced together as it fell. When the first Silver Star car broke through the cliff, a track bridge a hundred meters wide had already been erected over the abyss! Alloy highway bridges extended from both sides, and the tires of the charging cars ran directly over the still-cooling steel plates, sparking red sparks!
At the same time, within the mechanical gate, 6,000 thrusters flew like shooting stars toward the cliff edge where the monster horde was densely packed.
The "Iron Man" mechs, covered in super-carbon alloy, crashed into the monster horde like meteors, exploding into a ring-shaped magnetic storm shockwave at the point of impact. The "Dragon Girl" Reaper mechs deployed their plasma wing blades as they dove, their crimson tentacles melted by the high-temperature beams. This mech force, completely resistant to the crimson frequency, was like a harvester, carving out a vacuum zone as soon as they landed, covering the convoy behind them as they rushed through the canyon.
Flying beside Lin Xian were KIKI and Chu Yan. A powerful psychic wave forcefully suppressed the destructive aftershocks of the South Heavenly Gate into the canyon, allowing Lin Xian's rail bridge to be constructed rapidly. Then, KIKI waved her hands, dispersing the destructive aftershocks to both sides of the train line. Under the towering flames, a burning area of several kilometers was instantly annihilated.
Chu Yan remained motionless, her eyes flashing with spiritual energy. An invisible killing force poured out towards the sky without disturbing a wisp of wind, yet countless flying winged demons fell from the scarlet clouds as if frozen in place!
At this moment, beneath the seemingly impossible railway bridge, the S-class anomaly that had been roaring just moments before had half its torso melted away by the South Heavenly Gate. The spectacular torso, now burning with molten lava and hot gas at its fractured surface, lay red-hot and spilled into the canyon, with charred steam rising above the canyon—a truly terrifying sight!
At this moment, countless shocked gazes turned to the figure in the sky. Behind Lin Xian, a violent torrent of metal spread out like the wings of a mechanical deity in the sky!
"Holy crap, is he even that handsome?!"
The Republican Alliance convoy burst through the stench of S-class corpses, a fierce wind whipping up across the canyon. Traveling at high speed, Lei Zhen watched as the bridge ahead of his wheels barely moved faster than his vehicle. The feeling of a road seemingly paved out of thin air sent him into a frenzy, and he immediately shouted enthusiastically towards Lin Xian.
"Awesome!!!"
