Chapter 159: Chapter 154: Emergency Deployment (15,000 word bonus, thanks to the true alliance master, Ni Lanxuan)The terrifying giant shadow in the sky appeared like a mountain, and the moment the vast silhouette flickered with lightning, it brought to all the survivors an oppressive feeling of suffocation. "My God, what kind of monster is that..." "So terrifying!" Searᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "What should we do..." "Quick, look at those trains! They’re starting to enter the rising elevator ports!!" After learning the emergency team’s plan, the survivors on the square went from panic to surprise, as if a bomb had gone off among them. With the Federation Investigation Team’s airships completely wiped out, the anti-aircraft defenses above the airport reset their targets to the Abnormal Body. Wuu~ The remaining three Warhawk-class aerial gunboats of the Iron Guard Brigade and several Lightning 2 air-space fighters all took off, heading for the massive creature above the clouds. "Warhawk 02 03, pay attention, don’t engage, lure the target’s attention in front of the airport." "Warhawk 02, received." "Warhawk 03, received." Clang clang~ The missile bays of the aerial gunboats opened slowly, and several large air-to-air missiles were launched sharply. At the same time, the unloaded I-17 multi-lobed leaf plasma cannons at the front of the gunboats began to gather electric light. Boom! Boom! Two shining plasma cannon shots streaked across the sky and exploded in the clouds, casting light on a giant jellyfish’s umbrella edge, slowly churning. Zhang Dingzhong led his troops to the central E zone of the airport, the central axis facing Yu Bei City. The elevated tracks and the wide streets below stretched straight for several kilometers and were now densely packed with a tide of corpses. A horde of strange insects and human ghosts moved among them, while a few close-in weapon systems, after cooling down, unleashed another wave of metal frenzy, annihilating a multitude of Fallen creatures! "Ma Xiaotang, gather those Iron Guard 3 and Destroyer Mechas in zones A, C, and here. Even those under repair—bring them up. As long as the weapons can still fire, use them like defensive installations. In these two hours, even if it means dying to the last man, you must hold on!" "Yes!" "Zhan Wei, where are your Guard Corps’ Patrol Mechas? Bring them all out." "Most were damaged after the last electromagnetic pulse encounter; only one is left." Zhan Wei, carrying a machine gun, stepped forward and fired off a burst that killed a wave of Zombies climbing up. "Old commander, let me operate it." A tall white armed Mecha was brought over by a transport vehicle. Zhan Wei took the lead, sat in the control cabin, activated the engines at the rear of the Mecha, wuu~ With a roar from the engines, Zhan Wei lifted the control arms, and the Mecha’s two huge arms were raised. The left arm was a six-barrel rapid-fire Gatling gun, and the right arm was a 60mm large-caliber artillery piece. He then jumped off the transport vehicle and rushed toward the front lines of the battle. The battle continued to escalate! "Brothers, hold on!" "Don’t let these beasts break through!!" "Watch out for the Abnormal Body’s flame thrower below!!" Boom boom! "Gun number 2, prepare to load!" "We need a flame thrower!" "..." Tracer bullets streaked through the sky, illuminating the entire Airport No.1. ... At this point in the rising elevator’s upper track hall, four large, mechanical-looking trains were already lying side by side on four elevator tracks, with a conveyor belt-like yellow traction platform behind them. This modular traction platform, each stretching 100 meters long, could secure about 20 cars. In front of the car traction platform, there are four large climbing tractors connected between the traction platform and the train. Once successfully entering the high-altitude corridor, the car traction platform will be electromagnetically accelerated by these devices. A large number of cars are now lining up to enter the preparation hall under the direction of the emergency team and various fleet leaders, beginning to drive into the traction device. The entire upwards track hall bustles with thousands of people helping each other—some young people descend from their vehicles to support other teams, helping the emergency team members secure the cars. Outside, the artillery fire rages on with the electromagnetic railguns in the sky continuously bombarding. Due to unstable electricity, the lights inside the entire upwards track hall dim intermittently, then brighten up again. Facing the terrifying monster above in the sky, some people continuously pray, and others show a look of panic. Everyone’s life hangs by a thread, but all they can do is bury their heads in this nearly insane plan. Without the use of climbing elevators, rushing up the high-altitude corridor is definitely a test full of thrills and unknowns. If the traction cables snap, if the elevator and high-altitude corridor collapse, if a wave of zombies invades... No one can imagine what they will face in the next second. This night, for all the survivors here, is destined to be a long one filled with uncertainty! On the train tracks ahead, Chen Sixuan is inspecting the Horizon Gate of the Whale 03E heavy gas turbine locomotive with a flashlight, along with the building, while the onboard system also conducts a self-check. At this moment, everyone in the "Infinity" team, except for Ding Junyi, is extremely nervous. In front of the other three large trains, the "Infinity" seems rather slim by comparison. Although it also has an intercontinental Gemini 11R nuclear-powered electric locomotive, both its power and onboard equipment obviously do not match up to the other three. Thus, the "Infinity" was assigned the fewest number of traction platforms. According to the emergency team’s deployment led by Bai Shuang, based on the remaining power load of the trains, the Silver Star was assigned 1000 cars, with more than 50 rows of traction platforms behind it. Dragon Mountain No.1 was 700 cars, and the Iron Guard Brigade’s intercontinental train was 600 cars, while Lin Xian’s "Infinity" only had over 400 cars. The fleets of Shu Qin, Xu Jin, Lao Mo, and Jiang Yun were all attached to the traction platforms onboard the "Infinity." According to the predetermined plan, once the cars have successfully entered the high-altitude corridor, all four trains will detach from the traction and be system-linked, allowing the cars behind to be electromagnetically accelerated through the traction platform, while the four trains at the back will take separate tracks and use their own engines to accelerate past the Dazhu Plateau! Lin Xian is currently manufacturing and connecting the train’s traction cables with the assistance of KIKI and Jiang Yun. Wei Kexue brought over a dozen maintenance robots to help with welding and reinforcements. "I’ve set up a decoupling device. As long as we successfully get onto the corridor, we can complete the decoupling and save some time." Lin Xian is sweating profusely at this moment, constantly checking the time on his watch: "Girl, our train only has one Horizon Gate. Unlike the Silver Star, which has a very high overall configuration and 8 propulsion units, if there’s an emergency situation, you have to help me hold back the train, or the mechanical traction hooks could snap." "I understand," KIKI nodded. "Don’t worry," Jiang Yun walked over and looked at him: "It’s not just one superpower user who can help. I’ll also lend a hand when it’s critical." Wind Power can indeed provide a lot of assistance at such moments, Lin Xian nodded: "Thank you." This plan had been fermenting in Lin Xian’s mind tonight for quite a while. He and Wei Kexue had been ready to propose it when discussing, but this plan indeed carries significant risks. Had the situation not been so dire, who would be willing to attempt such a high-risk operation? Seeing the tension in Lin Xian’s expression, KIKI’s gaze flickered: "Lin Xian, I believe in you. I think this plan will definitely be successful." "Thank you." Lin Xian let out a deep breath and kept busy: "Actually, I’m not confident myself, just like what Jian Zeyang said, if it were just us rushing up there, the odds would be quite high." From a human perspective, Lin Xian actually harbored the same idea as Jian Zeyang. If the airport directly opened the other channels without considering order, then these trains might have already run on their own without having to queue for the climbing elevator. And the risks that Wei Kexue spoke of were actually just potential hazards, at worst criticized for disregarding the safety of the evacuation route and thereby imposing those hazards on the following car fleets. Therefore, Lin Xian also understood that Bai Shuang had this consideration, maybe even intentionally. The Iron Guard Brigade had already suffered a setback previously and was forced to defend the airport, while the Silver Star and Dragon Mountain No.1 not only had strong firepower but also a large number of people, which could increase resistance when critical. He could think of this, and surely Jian Xuwei, Jian Zeyang, Shi Deyuan, and others could as well. However, under such circumstances, if they insisted on being obstinate and confronted the emergency team by disregarding airport management and rushing away, it would likely cause dissatisfaction among other survivors and even provoke conflicts. Under the circumstances of being besieged by zombies, everyone chose to fight against the threat together. Bai Shuang managed to keep the situation well under control. Had it not been for the sudden earthquake and the meddling of the Federation Investigation Team, perhaps things would not have deteriorated so rapidly. Lin Xian’s plan was not about playing the hero or displaying noble selflessness, but rather considering that it was indeed a solution that could take care of themselves while also moving everyone more quickly. Boom! At this moment, an even more intense earthquake struck than before.
