Chapter 29: Chapter 25: Begging for Mercy"You barely made it 100 kilometers before encountering two groups trying to rob you. Can you always be that lucky? And it's just the two of you. That sister probably can't even beat a zombie, what would you do in a zombie wave? Do you have heating equipment, a radar system? When you stop, don't you need a Sentinel System or a Defense System? Carrying supplies might be simple, but don't you need Transportation Machinery to move equipment?" "Also! People are fragile. With a global pandemic raging, what if you get infected or sick? You'll need doctors and antibiotics, right? And if there's a long-term lack of vitamins, wouldn't you need vegetables and fruits too? Do you have a Medical System? Do you have Industrial Armor, a Repair System, an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Reconnaissance System? Do you have an Ice-breaking Shield for encountering glaciers, and if you need to repair the tracks, won't you need steel, a small rail vehicle, a rail-lifting system? Can you handle all these? Believe it or not, your Infinity train plan might not even make it a thousand kilometers before it completely fails, completely collapses, and says goodbye for good!" KIKI became angrier as she spoke, glaring with wide eyes, her chest heaving, and biting her neat little teeth repeatedly, especially after hearing Lin Xian casually dismiss the Dawn Plan and persist in running the train. It seemed the urgency got to her, as she then became earnest, looking up urgently at the ceiling and said, Lin Xian was stunned, not angry but rather, his interest visibly piqued as he curiously said, "Wait, slow down,... Sentinel System, Defense System, Radar System, Transportation Machinery, Medical System, Industrial Armor, Repair System, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Reconnaissance System... What else?" Lin Xian was suddenly inspired, feeling a burst of inspiration for his Mechanical Superpower. KIKI, with her mouth slightly open and eyes wide, was even more confused. She had just given a long critique of Lin Xian's plans, dousing them in cold water, but instead of getting angry, he seemed genuinely interested, appearing as if he was ready to plan things exactly as she'd suggested... KIKI, frustrated, blurted out, "Do you even understand what I said?!" "I get it, to make the train fast and go far, I need these systems!" Lin Xian replied earnestly, "Are you also suggesting that I should add a Railgun and a Coexistence Mecha Device on the train when necessary?" "You!" "No more? Then, good day!" Lin Xian's expression suddenly turned cold, a swift change that was almost callous. "Hey, hey, hey!" Seeing Lin Xian stand up, seemingly ready to throw her off the train, KIKI completely lost her earlier composure and looked up at him in panic, "Big brother, can't we talk this over? If it really comes to it, I...I...I...I...I...I can sleep with you like that sister!" Lin Xian frowned, clearly unamused, "What did you say?!" KIKI faltered, "But you'll have to wait several months, wait until I turn 16, otherwise it would be molesting a minor!" "Sorry, you're not my type," Lin Xian replied, unmoved. "You!?" ... The Infinity stormed along the Jiangyu Railway, the setting sun casting a streamlined mechanical beauty on the speeding train. In car No. 3, the air froze at that moment. Clang~ The sound of the hydraulic board rang as Lin Xian, furious, opened the hydraulic tailboard while moving, then suddenly grabbed the girl and carried her to the rear end of the car like a little chicken. "The wilderness should be safer than the city. Good luck on your own." Lin Xian pretended to drop her. "Wait!!" KIKI, panic-stricken and powerless in Lin Xian's grasp, turned pale and pleaded, "Handsome guy, handsome guy... Whatever conditions you need, let's discuss them!" Lin Xian released his grip and looked at her coldly, "Do you think you are of any value to my team? You steal food, even attacked me. I didn't kill you outright, which is humane enough, isn't it?" Although saying so, throwing her off the train at this moment was akin to sending the girl to her death. But all of this had nothing to do with Lin Xian. "Yes!" KIKI said with wide eyes, "Haven't I already told you my identity? Keeping me can get you a lot of supplies."

"I'm not interested in your suggestions." "I'm telling the truth!" "Don't need it." "Goodbye." Lin Xian closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and ran out of patience. He activated the Mechanical Heart and instantly made the "Infinity" start to decelerate. Squeak~ It wasn't long before the train slowly came to a stop. Lin Xian's face, stern, forced KIKI to slowly back towards the door. "You can go now." Seeing that Lin Xian really stopped the train, KIKI was finally scared, and her big eyes fogged up with mist. She glared at Lin Xian hatefully, struggled in her eyes for a moment, then turned around stubbornly. But as she reached the edge of the car, she suddenly stopped, turned her head back with a panicked look at Lin Xian, and bit her lower lip saying, "Are you testing me?" Lin Xian frowned. "What did you say?" KIKI's gaze turned slightly cold. "Are you testing my superpower?" Lin Xian's pupils shrank, and he remained silent. Seeing he didn't speak, KIKI suddenly relaxed, the fear in her eyes replaced by a slyness. Despite tears in her eyes, she giggled mischievously, "If you wanted to kill me, you would have done it at the start. You're actually testing me, aren't you?" The young girl seemed to realize something suddenly and perked up. She walked directly in front of Lin Xian, her face lifted proudly as she resiliently said, "You know I have a superpower, right?" "Do you have a superpower?" Lin Xian asked, smiling in return. "Of course." KIKI was very serious. "You know I survived from a helicopter and found your shelter unscathed in the dark night. My superpower must be strong—capable of even resisting the big monsters and insects at night. So although you want to kill me, you're actually curious and cautious about me. You're asking me to leave the train just to test me, am I right?!" Lin Xian observed the girl who appeared no more than fifteen or sixteen. Though his expression remained unchanged, his mind was quickly calculating. She had guessed right. If it were someone else, he would have killed them at once. That night, when the girl sought his help, Lin Xian was unmoved. It was inconceivable that this girl could have walked alive from a night filled with monsters to his shelter. The shock wave that night also left a deep impression on him! Had it not been for the girl's sudden display of a powerful superpower that damaged his door, he wouldn't have risked taking her on the train. So, seeing that the girl didn't immediately use her superpower against him, Lin Xian felt even more curious. Though uninterested in sleeping with a young girl or the so-called Dawn Plan, he was very intrigued by KIKI's sudden explosion of superpower, and of course, he was also somewhat wary. Therefore, he didn't act ruthlessly right away but was deliberately testing her to see what she meant and why she pretended to misunderstand superpowers! Realizing this, Lin Xian's tone turned heavier, losing his earlier relaxed smile. "Aren't you testing me too?" "What... what do you mean." KIKI's smile froze upon hearing this. "You first pretended to be innocent to see if I was a pervert who would take advantage of you. Finding that ineffective, you then brought up a deal of mutual interests with me. Plainly said, you were worried that I harbored intentions against you, so you wanted to test my limits." Lin Xian slowly pulled out the Short Knife, his face expressionless. "Then let me tell you, my limit is here!" With that, his face turned cold, and he suddenly rushed at KIKI with the knife, intending to end her life. Seeing Lin Xian charging at her with murderous intent, KIKI's face turned pale, her pupils dilating. With nowhere to retreat, as Lin Xian raised his knife, she suddenly closed her eyes, raised her hand to protect her face, and exclaimed in terror, "Stop! Stop! I'm wrong! I confess! I'll tell you everything!" Whoosh! The surroundings quieted down, and KIKI felt her breath halt for a moment. She cautiously opened her eyes, only to see the cold blade right in front of her. Lin Xian's expression was icy. He had been holding nothing back just now, even secretly gathering strength in the Wind Gun. However, as death approached, the girl did not use her superpower to fight back, suddenly causing him to doubt. So, he forcefully suppressed the killing intent in his heart and stopped. "Speak!"
