Chapter 148: Chapter 143: Support (Vote for monthly ticket!)"Ah? Extreme Night Corpse Chaser, does such a thing really exist?" someone in the crowd exclaimed in alarm. "Has anyone actually seen one?" "Can we evacuate in time? The radio said that those who encountered the corpse chaser... all died." "Everyone quiet down!" Suddenly, Bai Shuang raised her voice with a stern gaze: "No matter what it is, the danger is right before our eyes. If you want to survive, don’t just stand around waiting. Anyone with weapons or superpower users capable of combat can go to the Airport defensive line to help resist the zombie tide. Once the defense line breaks, we will have no way out." Her words instantly sobered many people up. On Lin Xian’s side, Chen Sixuan, KIKI, and others were also tense. They had fled all the way here, and now there was no way out for everyone. It was then Jiang Yun stepped forward and said, "I suggest everyone not to panic. Mr. Bai, if there are any kinds of assistance you need, just let us know. If there are caravans here that can provide support, we can do an on-site tally and then have the emergency group coordinate everything to avoid chaos." "Okay, since the situation is urgent, Mr. Bai, please say whatever you need; we Dragon Mountain No.1 have plenty of weapons!" Shi Deyuan was very domineering. "And us, Silver Star." Click, clack, click, clack. At this moment, a group of people hurried over, and everyone turned to look, seeing a young man and woman surrounded by several fully armed guards approaching the square. Both were dressed in very high-end fur coats, with silver cross stars on their chests, immaculate from head to toe, each bearing an aristocratic quality far different from the disheveled survivors. The woman, who was leading, was beautiful and distinguished. She directly said, "There are 800 armed personnel on Silver Star, and if needed, we also have 42 engineers from various fields who can offer assistance." Lin Xian heard this and was inwardly shocked. This was even more domineering; a single train almost had a battalion’s worth of firepower, with even over forty engineers, truly worthy of once being an international conglomerate—having money really is incredible. With both big train groups making their stance known, the atmosphere became more positive, and many caravans began to express their willingness to help. In a matter of life and death for everyone, people had no choice but to band together at this moment. Outside the Airport, gunshots roared, and the battle intensified. Besides Lin Xian and Shu Qin, Xu Jin, Lao Mo’s caravan, the largest were those of the Silver Star and Dragon Mountain No.1 trains. In addition to dispatching 42 engineers, Silver Star had over 800 well-equipped armed personnel. Aside from the elderly, women, and children on Dragon Mountain No.1, there were also more than 500 armed personnel. The combined forces were close to a battalion-level military unit in combat power. In terms of caravans, there was Jiang Yun’s Wind Chasing Team, the Bearded Caravan, and other combat forces tallied in the square, totaling over 1000 people. However, the combat capabilities of these survivors were more scattered and could not compare with Silver Star, much less the Iron Guard Brigade. "Okay, the situation is this." Bai Shuang saw that everyone was being mobilized and didn’t waste words, going straight to the point, "Now Gate A’s sluice is malfunctioning and cannot close, allowing a massive influx of zombies and Abnormal Bodies. Iron Guard Brigade has already deployed heavy troops to block them. Additionally, the Airport radar has detected several large Abnormal Bodies approaching through the air; preliminary detection indicates at least Grade B Sky Jellyfish, and that Grade S Atmospheric Jellyfish might be very likely near Yu Bei City’s airspace..." "Sky Jellyfish? What about the Railgun?" Shi Deyuan pointed to the anti-air weapons on the structure above the Airport. "That should be able to deal with it, right?" "Electricity is limited; we can’t activate all of them." Wei Kexue, an engineer from Bai Shuang’s emergency team, said at this time, "The power system of the Airport was severely damaged before, which is why we only activated one climbing elevator. We also need to ensure the electromagnetic accelerators in the high-altitude passageways function otherwise there will be collisions." "Fine, but both Silver Star and Dragon Mountain No.1 Car have anti-air equipment that can all be put to good use," Shi Deyuan said, casting a glance at Jian Xuwei. "We can. Silver Star’s weapon system will remain online," Jian Xuwei’s voice was steady. "But the Airport spans a wide area, and the range we can cover is limited." "So the main problems now are threefold: first is Gate A’s sluice, second is anti-air defenses, and third is the climbing elevator malfunction?" Lin Xian spoke up at this time. Bai Shuang nodded. Lin Xian’s gaze turned to Wei Kexue. "May I ask what exactly is the malfunction with the climbing elevator? I have some knowledge of mechanics; perhaps I can be of help." Just as his words fell, an inappropriate snicker suddenly sounded. Everyone looked over to find it was the young man beside Jian Xuwei, currently unable to hold back his laughter. "Zeyang!" Jian Xuwei frowned, reprimanding. "My apologies..." Jian Zeyang quickly gestured a hand wave to Lin Xian, "I didn’t mean to offend, I just wanted to say, do you know what the climbing elevator is? It’s not ordinary ’mechanics’. It’s a near-Earth super climbing device with a vertical height of 4800 meters and a slope close to 90%. It’s not something you can help with just understanding a little about mechanical structures." "If it’s about inspecting malfunctions and some less complex supportive components, maybe I could be of help." Lin Xian ignored the condescension in Jian Zeyang’s words, focusing on how to solve the actual problem. Sёarch* The NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Captain Lin, are you serious?" Jiang Yun looked intently at him, speaking bluntly. Lin Xian took a deep breath, raised his hand, and with a glow in his palm, several materials flew out, condensed, shaped, forged, assembled, and combined! Clang, clang, clang! A heavy metal door materialized and forged itself, then slammed onto the ground with a dull thud. "My superpower is a Mechanical Department, if it’s about Mechanical Repair, as long as the scale isn’t too large, it should be no problem for me." Everyone gawked at the scene, their eyes widening. In contrast, KIKI and the others around Lin Xian looked proud, exuding an air of, "Don’t look down on us for being few; each of us is an elite." "What... Mechanical Department?" "There’s such a superpower?" "That’s amazing!" "Oh my god..." Jiang Yun’s gaze towards Lin Xian shifted slightly, followed by a sincere smile, as if to say that he had only guessed the tip of the iceberg, while the reality was even more bizarre. "No wonder your Infinite Armor is so secure. I was wondering how such a small group of you could build such a big thing. It turns out you’ve been hiding your dragons and crouching tigers." Jian Xuwei, on the other hand, looked at Lin Xian with amazed eyes, genuinely surprised, while Jian Zeyang stood there speechless. Bai Shuang looked at Lin Xian with surprise and then said, "I see, I understand now. Then we will bother Captain Lin to join us in the ascending elevator. If we can speed up the repairs, everyone can have a better chance of survival." Lin Xian took a deep breath; he didn’t want to flaunt his superpower and play the hero, but at this moment, when his team’s and countless people’s lives were at stake, if he could help, he couldn’t afford to worry about his own selfish defensive thoughts. Besides, helping to repair machinery sounded more like a practical talent, not something overly heaven-defying. "That’s great!" Wei Kexue lit up with surprise, "Captain Lin, indeed we’ve encountered some component failures. If you’re available now, there’s no time to delay; let’s go have a look right away." "I think we should first deal with the problem of Gate A; if we don’t stop the leak, it could lead to major trouble," Lin Xian suggested. "Okay!" Bai Shuang said to Wei Kexue, "Let’s divide into groups. The situations in areas A5, A7 are the most severe. C1, C2, D9, and E6 all need lots of assistance, especially with superpower users capable of long-range attacks or heavy weaponry support." "We’ve detected over 19 types of Level C Abnormal Bodies; the threat is substantial." "Since Gate A is the most dangerous, I’ll take some people with me as well, let’s fix the door first, then we’ll go support the other areas," Jiang Yun stepped forward to offer. A consensus on the support plan was reached, and each Survivor Caravan began to deploy personnel and weapons to assist the various defensive lines. Lin Xian’s group also hurriedly started making their arrangements. Shu Qin, Xu Jin, and Lao Mo’s people who could lend a hand joined Bai Shuang’s dispatch to support the front lines of the Iron Guard Brigade. "Teacher Chen, Director Ding, you two stay in the car. Building Shasha KIKI and Lu Xingchen come with me to Gate A first, and we’ll see what to do next after it’s resolved." "Those two women got off the car, does that mean I’m getting off too?" Lu Xingchen had seen this scene and looked warily at Lin Xian, "Hey, I don’t have a car to stay in right now. Didn’t you agree to give me a compartment to live in?" "What?" Lin Xian looked surprised, but then KIKI whispered an explanation in his ear, and he understood the meaning behind Lu Xingchen’s words, only to say firmly, "No problem at all, after we cross the high-altitude corridor, Car 5 will be cleared out for your use." A Fire Power superpower user joining was good news for the entire team; this guy was not only powerful but also brave, definitely a valuable teammate. "Awesome!" Lu Xingchen’s eyes shone, and he breathed a sigh of relief before suddenly remembering something else, "Isn’t that a bit too spacious, living in such a big compartment all by myself?" Lin Xian nodded and looked towards Building, "That’s fine, then Building can move over too, so you two can keep each other company." "Eh?" Lu Xingchen turned to look at Building, who was burly like a tower, his face showing perplexity, "No no...that’s not what I meant." "Okay, Brother Xian!" Building readily agreed. Lu Xingchen clicked his tongue and after coming to terms with reality, gave Building a complicated look, "Hey, buddy, do you snore?" Building scratched his face, "I’m usually quite quiet when I sleep." "That’s good!" Lu Xingchen relaxed, "Then, do you mind if I snore?" Building: "..." "Here we go." Lu Xingchen clenched his fists, ready to take on the challenge, "Time for this god to save the world." ...
