Chapter 61: Chapter 57 Jiang Yun (Requesting Monthly Tickets)"Is it really fixed?!" Xu Jin quickly took a prepared cup to catch the precious clear water and then sniffed it near his nose, his eyes instantly lighting up. "Clean and clear, no odd smell, it really works!" "Of course." Shu Qin excitedly said, "We’ve always been using this water purifier. If you boil it again before drinking, it will definitely be fine." "Great, great!" Xu Jin nodded his head, immediately took out the walkie-talkie, called his convoy over, and prepared to start trading. "Thank you." Shu Qin was very grateful as she handed over a large box of canned food to Lin Xian, "You’ve really helped me a lot." Lin Xian simply took it and said, "It was no trouble at all, I heard you’re also heading to Yu Bei City?" "Yes," Shu Qin nodded, "Yu Bei City is a port city of the Star Orbital. I heard that the Dazhu Mountain Tunnel is blocked, and many people here are preparing to go through there and then head towards Star City." Star City? Lin Xian fell silent for a moment, indeed, most people chose to first flee to the major cities of Dragon Country, regardless of whether those cities had fallen, at least in such cities, the resources are incomparable to those of smaller cities. At that moment, several other people with equipment repair needs also came over. Seeing that Lin Xian had fixed Shu Qin’s water purifier, they also sought assistance. However, Lin Xian did not fully attend to them either, just fixed an infrared detector for a large convoy and scanned the schematics. He planned to integrate it into the train’s night watch system, and he also got a box of antibiotics. The conversation he just had with Shu Qin and Xu Jin reminded him that medicine was also very important during escape. As for the other two convoys’ car repairs and drones, Lin Xian expressed his inability to help. For one thing, the car repair involved a broken steering rod plus a blown engine, and he couldn’t possibly weld the steering rod back together with just a screwdriver in full public view... And that drone was just ordinary goods, not as good as the one on Qian Yu’s armored car. Lin Xian deliberately feigned incompetence and refused after a thorough inspection. Understanding machinery, but not too well; just having fixed the water purifier and then dealing with a large vehicle’s steering rod and drone, by tomorrow they would expect him to fix turbo engines. Better to leave some wiggle room. In this survivors’ camp, Lin Xian showed just enough goodwill. "Train Captain Lin." As everyone began to prepare to return to their camps to travel at night, Lin Xian and KIKI were also ready to leave. At that moment, Jiang Yun came over with a smile, while one of his subordinates ran in from outside, holding two strange devices in his hands. "Brother Yun." "Show them," Jiang Yun casually ordered. Thus the underling stepped forward and handed the devices to Lin Xian. One was a modified radio. The other was a device resembling a clock. "This is the Soul Swinging Value Detector, and here are the schematics." Lin Xian took it and saw that what he held was a hemisphere device made of copper, palm-sized with fine iron wires winding around it, with a filter below which needed to be connected to a portable power source. "This thing is actually handmade, seems quite challenging." "We have schematics, let me take a photo," KIKI approached with her phone, taking a picture of the detector’s schematic. Lin Xian didn’t stop her, in fact, while he was just holding it and examining it, his Mechanical Heart Superpower activated, and he nearly instantly completed a scan. But he still had to maintain appearances. [Blueprint obtained for unknown signal detector, Code N01] He glanced at it, the difficulty was not high, the biggest issue was that filter, but as long as he had the chance to absorb some household appliances and collect materials, it would be easy to make. Another issue was that the detector needed to use red beads. Jiang Yun told him that the detector’s usage involved consumption, meaningные the energy contained in those red beads was limited and could not be used permanently, they were consumables. Seeing KIKI taking out her phone, Jiang Yun’s expression subtly changed, and piecing together that Lin Xian and the others could drive a huge train, he seemed to guess something, but did not show it and instead said, "When the city’s industrial systems were complete, such devices were worthless, but now with all survivors living day to day and not even sure if they can get clean water, being able to create such things is quite remarkable." Sёarᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Lin Xian nodded his head, handing the detector back to Jiang Yun. "Thanks, I’ll study it." Jiang Yun nodded, "Good luck." Lin Xian looked at him and directly asked, "Captain Jiang, tonight’s cooperative campfire is initiated by you, but I haven’t seen any special needs from you?" "Are you also wondering why I made a special point to invite you to participate?" Jiang Yun seemed to see through Lin Xian’s slight confusion, smiling as he asked in return. Lin Xian was shocked and just smiled without saying a word. Huh~ At this moment, another gust of cold wind blew over. Jiang Yun stood in front of Lin Xian, suddenly reached out and grabbed, the cold wind coalescing like a surging air current, instantly turned into a large mass of airflow in his hand, and then he clapped his hands and the powerful airflow just vanished. "Wow!" KIKI exclaimed, "You can catch the wind?" "This superpower has its advantages, it’s fast-moving, allowing access to many places." Jiang Yun glanced at KIKI, then looked at Lin Xian with a somewhat serious expression, seemingly without intending to hide anything, he candidly said, "I can understand your feelings, rushing with a train full of people’s lives and deaths, staying cautious and vigilant against everything, that’s a good thing, it’s not easy to survive in the apocalypse." "You asked me the purpose of initiating the bonfire for mutual aid, actually, it’s quite simple." "Rationally speaking, first of all, I really like trains, and if my superpower wasn’t related to wind, I’d actually want to build a moving fortress like you have. Regardless of what superpowers you all possess, having the ability to break through the night, I admire your courage and strength." "From an emotional perspective, under these uncertain times of life and death during the apocalypse, everyone is fending for themselves. Having one more friend is better than one more enemy, right?" Jiang Yun said openly. Lin Xian was surprised, "Just to get acquainted with more survivors?" "Exactly, living day-to-day between life and death, useful information and aid often can save you from the brink." Jiang Yun expressed directly, "This might be what sets us humans apart from those monstrous beings." Jiang Yun turned and pulled over one of his followers, ruffling his head, "These guys who followed me, they haven’t always been so lucky to survive, along the way, we’ve also received quite a bit of help." "Yeah, everyone helps each other to overcome difficulties together!" That follower, looking no more than seventeen or eighteen, said with eager eyes. Lin Xian’s eyebrows raised slightly upon hearing these words, feeling somewhat moved by Jiang Yun’s words. "Thank you, if I come across another bonfire event you initiate, I’ll definitely participate." Jiang Yun smiled and spread his hands, "You see, hasn’t my purpose been achieved?" With that, he turned and left. "Good luck." ... Having obtained the blueprint of the Soul Swinging Value Detector and a Mysterious Blood Essence, and also having gathered quite a bit of useful information, this trip was considered quite fruitful for Lin Xian and his group. Just as they were about to leave, Jiang Yun’s follower on a mountain bike suddenly approached his car window. "Hey, Brother Yun asked me to remind you, when using the Mysterious Radio, do not tune to the frequency 1542!" Lin Xian’s expression grew stern upon hearing this, "Is that the Mysterious Radio you mentioned?" "Correct, be careful with it." After saying that, the young man rode off again. "1542..." KIKI, sitting in the backseat, looked puzzled, "A radio station, could there really be monsters showing up?" "Listening to advice fills the stomach." Lin Xian signaled for the Building to drive, adding, "There’s no need to be curious about such things." "I’m not curious, I’m scared of ghosts..." KIKI shivered, "Now that he mentioned it, I don’t even dare to use the radio anymore." "Let’s head back first." Lin Xian thought for a moment, wanted to continue their journey home first, taking advantage of the night to absorb whatever needed to be absorbed, then figuring out a way to gather some materials to produce the Soul Swinging Value Detector. Also, he only had one Mysterious Blood Essence, so his primary goal was definitely to get the radio operational first, otherwise, he might miss out on a lot of useful information. Buzz~Buzz~Buzz~ On the open ground surrounding the abandoned factory, hundreds of vehicles started their engines one after another, departing towards the distance, some splitting ways at different intersections, others fearful of dangers, several convoys sticking together as they quickly disappeared into the dark. The noise stirred some zombies in the suburban forests, with numerous howling sounds starting to emerge in the night. Jiang Yun’s vehicle was a heavily modified off-roader, with the mentioned motorbike stowed on the back. In the driver’s cab, Jiang Yun watched the tail lights of Lin Xian’s jeep disappear in the distance, and said lightly, "It looks like they, just like us, are planning to enter the Star Orbital Path through Yu Bei City and cross the high-level corridor of Wanyuan Canyon." Ren Huixian, wearing a leather jacket, now sitting in the passenger seat, spoke up, "The climbing pathway has been out of power for long, survivor vehicles without traction can’t make it up, not to mention such heavy railway trains?" Jiang Yun chuckled slightly, "Heh, Ping A Lake has Big Strange Bodies appearing, Dazhu Mountain Range Tunnel is blocked, to cross the Wanyuan Canyon one can only climb over a thousand kilometers of Dazhu Mountain, now with extreme night encroaching and corpse chasers blocking the routes, I reckon many people in Yu Bei City are thinking of using the high-level passage of Star Orbital One, and I believe, Train Captain Lin definitely has a way up." "Are you so sure?" asked Ren Huixian. Jiang Yun put on sunglasses, the corner of his mouth slightly raised in confidence, "Five men driving three train engines charging through the night, definitely tough guys, yes, I have high hopes for this person!" He then stepped on the accelerator, roaring the engine as he sped away stylishly.
