Chapter 63: Chapter 59 Midnight (Vote for monthly pass at the third watch of the night)!KIKI, following Lin Xian’s blueprint, designed a rough sketch of a water oxygen recycling system. Considering the issues of rainwater and health, Lin Xian planned to clear out carriage three, connect it to the locomotive’s water tank, install a purification system, and set up some protective planting cabinets. Clean water, clean air, planting green plants and vegetables—these were already part of Lin Xian’s plans. After Xu Jin informed him that there was something wrong with the rainwater at night, Lin Xian became even more urgent about constructing such a carriage. The arrival of ice and snow, bacteria in the black rain—all these would herald the extinction catastrophe for plants and animals worldwide. In carriage two, the information center computer still glowed dimly. After being connected to the driving radar, photoelectric sighting system, and radar system, it could now guard a part of the area ahead of the train. It was a dark and chilly night, with a cold and piercing wind. Because the train’s heating system hadn’t been fully repaired, the carriages were imbued with a chill. KIKI and Sha Sha had already rested, Chen Sixuan was on duty in the cockpit, and Building was standing by at the rear of carriage five. "Sha Sha" "Sha Sha..." A faint calling sound woke Lou Shasha, who was lying in bed. Hearing the sound, the sleeping girl opened her eyes subconsciously, groggily searching for the source of the sound. The whole train had turned off its lights. She stretched her finger to lift a little bit of the blackout screen. Only the remaining twilight from the starlit sky poured in through the grilles of the armor plate, faintly illuminating the contours of the items inside the carriage. Was it an illusion? Lou Shasha seemed to hear a man calling her, and she looked left and right trying to find Lin Xian. There was no one. She prepared to retract the finger lifting the blackout screen, but at that moment, a standing shadow suddenly appeared outside the window. The upper body of the figure was shrouded in darkness, its features indiscernible. Lou Shasha’s fingers trembled with fear; she could feel that the shadow was staring at her. "Brother Lin?" She asked tentatively and with caution. Her other hand clutched the blanket tight, her expression tense, feeling that something was amiss. If it was Lin Xian, why would he be calling her from outside? Surrounding silence penetrated the air, only her voice sounding particularly grating and out of place. She reached out her hand to pat the bed, trying to get KIKI below to hear her. "Could you open the door for me..." The shadow whispered softly. "It’s so cold outside..." Creak, creak—after the shadow finished speaking, the sound of fingernails slowly scratching against the steel came from outside. Soon, the sound disappeared, and the shadow was gone. Lou Shasha’s heartbeat quickened, sensing something was wrong, she leaned in to check. But the next instant. A ghastly pale face with a gaping bloody mouth suddenly slammed against the window. Thud! A loud noise, followed by a huge vibration of the train, scared Lou Shasha. "Ah!!!" Sha Sha cried out, startling KIKI below, who frowned and turned over, exclaiming, "What’s wrong!?" "There’s something outside!!" Lou Shasha tried to calm her breathing and control her fear. Although she had experienced many terrifying things these days, she was still frightened by this scene. Swoosh! The blackout blinds of carriage two were pulled open by KIKI, and the lights inside the carriage turned on. Both of them looked out the window only to find pitch darkness, without any trace of a shadow. "What happened to you?!" At this time, Chen Sixuan ran over from the cockpit. "There’s something outside, I saw it..." Lou Shasha was still visibly shaken. Building, who was on duty with a gun, also came over, but they found nothing upon inspection. "Where’s Lin Xian?" KIKI asked. "He’s still outside." Chen Sixuan looked concerned, and after speaking, she picked up the walkie-talkie, ready to inquire about Lin Xian’s status. But at that moment, KIKI suddenly frowned. "Do you hear that... sounds like there’s something?" "Sounds?" Everyone looked around, and at that moment, they all quieted down to listen carefully. The night was tranquil, with only the howling cold wind stirring the rustling of treetops. But soon, the rustling sound grew louder and seemed to boil over, a whooshing echo that traveled from far to near, as if the sound came from the left, yet it also seemed to come from the right. It was as if a tremor of earthy unrest came from all directions. Sha Sha’s tiny face was pressed anxiously against the glass window, the light inside the car engulfed by the dense darkness outside, allowing visibility of only about a dozen meters. She watched and listened, her expression growing increasingly solemn. Suddenly, she saw countless black silhouettes moving like waves in the distance on the plain, and her pupils shrank sharply as she yelled out, "No good, it’s a zombie horde!!!!" Whoosh...!!! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!! Before the echo of her voice died down, a blanket of shrieks, running, and howling arose from all around like a tidal wave, the dense throng of shadows darkening the sky with no end in sight. "Lin Xian!!" Chen Sixuan was so frightened by the sight that she shivered all over, and quickly clenched the walkie-talkie to shout out to Lin Xian outside. "Drive now!" KIKI also shouted instinctively. Wooo!!! Without waiting for Chen Sixuan’s action, the engine of the ’Infinity’ had already begun to roar, and as soon as Chen Sixuan heard it, she immediately realized Lin Xian was urging them. Immediately she felt relieved, quickly running towards the driver’s cab. "Let’s go, to the back; that guy is still outside." KIKI suddenly thought of something and hurriedly called Building, and the two of them ran toward the direction of carriage 5 one after another. Thud thud thud thud thudding... In almost the blink of an eye, countless zombies flung themselves onto the train parked in the night. In a moment, the battering, collisions, bangs, and scratching assaulted the steel plates of the carriages like a deafening surge, the inside of the carriage like a muffled drum, as if hit by a mudslide! Whoo... The hydraulic tailgate opened, KIKI and Building both held their guns, ready for battle. "Villain, are you out there?!" yelled KIKI. Pop pop pop! Countless Wind Gun blasts shattered zombies’ heads, creating rolling thunderous noise upon hitting the carriage. "Don’t let those beasts in!" Lin Xian outside shouted, he ran swiftly across several car roofs while also driving the train forward. To devour the cargo electric locomotive, Lin Xian had almost exhausted most of his strength, his body soaked in cold sweat. It was only when the electric locomotive started by Chen Sixuan that Lin Xian suddenly felt his energy retract and heaved a sigh of relief, sprinting forward with all his might. Countless zombies surged forward relentlessly like a tidal wave; the scene was even more terrifying than in Mist Watchtower. Lin Xian inwardly shuddered, baffled at what had suddenly disturbed such a massive zombie horde, and immediately gritted his teeth, opening the tailgate halfway. Ratatat! Ratatat! As the tailgate lowered, a massive amount of zombies began to howl and climb into the car while KIKI and Building, already waiting inside, immediately opened fire in response. Lin Xian made a split-second decision, raising his hand and launching two Wind Gun blasts to clear a few zombies directly ahead, and with his increased speed attribute, leapt through the gap in the tailgate. Searᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Ah!" The tailgate immediately prepared to close, Building dropped his gun and shouted, picking up a crowbar and smashing the heads of two zombies trying to wiggle in through the tailgate, then with a kick he managed to completely close the tailgate. "Building, you and Sha Sha guard here, little lady follow me to the front!" Lin Xian didn’t stop for a moment; as soon as he landed, he ran toward the front. Once inside the train, he restarted Mechanical Heart to power up the gas turbine engine, both engines accelerating together! Buzz, bang bang bang! At this moment, the front of the train, densely packed zombies almost completely covered the driver’s visibility. The strength of the zombies in front of a heavy train was truly minimal, but the crazed zombies in front of the locomotive were blocking the train’s acceleration like a mountainous echo. Click, click, click Underneath the tracks, the ear-piercing sound of human bones and cadavers being crushed made one’s scalp tingle. "Keep accelerating!" Lin Xian shouted. Chen Sixuan bit her teeth and pushed the throttle to the fullest. "Little lady, push away those blocking the front!" KIK nodded, bit down on her silver teeth, and charged to the driver’s cabin to push against the front. Vroom! An invisible shockwave blasted forth, instantly blowing away hundreds of zombies in front of the train, and then... a large mass of zombie horde surged up again like ants. "The speed is picking up!" Chen Sixuan cried out. Lin Xian took the driver’s seat, his gaze stern, teeth clenched fiercely, "Crush them!" Wooo... The engines of the Giant Whale 03E heavy gas turbine locomotive and the Ring Star 7F electric locomotive roared together, carrying tens of thousands of horsepower and charging wildly through the zombie horde!
