Chapter 86: Chapter 82 Investigate...... In a wilderness near Daluo Mountain, a heavy train stationed quietly. The night was as dark as ink, with snow fluttering down. Lin Xian was not there. The "Infinity" had stopped moving. The two hours of daytime passed quickly, and by night, the three of them could only return to the carriage to discuss and continue waiting. Chen Sixuan brought a few blankets, added one more layer to the sleeping KIKI, and took another one to the Building. Carriage No. 5 had been modified into a simple sleeping car where the Building resided, and other areas were soldered with tool racks, storing a lot of steel and tools. "How is it?" Chen Sixuan asked. Sha Sha sat on the sofa, staring at the radio from afar with a frightened expression. "I don’t know why, but I always feel that this thing is still making noise..." The air fell silent. Chen Sixuan stood there, chest heaving, staring at the radio, trying to control her own mindset. Reason told her not to think about things she couldn’t understand. If someone could control the train, then that person must be Lin Xian! "We haven’t heard any noise for hours, Lin Xian might... have encountered something..." "Sister Chen..." Sha Sha looked somewhat upset; anyone would have trouble thinking positively when someone vanished into thin air. "It’s fine, he definitely has a way." Chen Sixuan’s words sounded like self-comfort. Lou Shasha nodded. Chen Sixuan turned off the lights and heating in the carriage, conserving crucial electricity. Meanwhile, she and Sasha took turns, one at the locomotive, one in Carriage No. 1, and another at the tail carriage, each keeping watch, observing the outside. Outside the armored windows, it was pitch black. There always seemed to be a sinister whispering in the wilderness under the cover of darkness, and screeching howls echoed through the darkness, chilling to the bone. Inside the cold cockpit, Chen Sixuan wrapped in a blanket, leaned on the driver’s seat, nervously watching the darkness outside the window. The inside of the carriage was relatively safe. The forward radar detection system was running on low power. The Building had just gone out to inspect, and the armor outside the train, including the top armor, was still intact. From Yuchi Station, they had escaped amidst dangers last night, including a white climbing monster; who knows how many more there were. Those collisions, bites, and attacks put enormous pressure on everyone. How many unknown and horrors filled the dark night, maybe they hadn’t even seen the tip of the iceberg. However, escaping successfully from such dangerous situations indicated that Lin Xian’s recent armor upgrade had worked. Had it been the armor before, perhaps the top of the train would have been pried open by monsters, and the consequences would have been obvious. But no sooner had one crisis subsided than another arose; a mysterious radio frequency had emerged on the train amidst the encirclement of dark and eerie creatures. In the dark, Chen Sixuan took a careful breath. Just the thought of that inexplicably emerging mysterious radio made Chen Sixuan shudder. Could some things really bypass even steel armor? Strangeness piled upon strangeness—zombies, insect monsters, fog, mutations, one terrifying event after another, and within a short period, Chen Sixuan felt like she had endured countless nightmares. "It’s definitely going to be alright..." She cheered herself up internally. Currently, besides the reserved energy in the Huanxing 7F electric locomotive aboard the Infinity, there was also over a thousand liters of gasoline collected from Tang Hai. Some of this gasoline had been filled into the gas turbine’s fuel tank, while the rest was left by Lin Xian for reserve. At the same time, the supply reserves were also sufficient. The few of them could be considered temporarily worry-free while staying on the train. The only issue was that staying in place, the devouring speed of the night tide would plunge the entire Yuchi City into polar night in just a few days, and by then, they could only resign themselves to fate. Whoo~ On the distant mountain road, several car lights kept flashing, seemingly a fleeing convoy. Chen Sixuan noticed that the sounds were getting closer, and her expression immediately turned cautious. However, it wasn’t long before that convoy drove toward Yu Bei City along a road a few kilometers away. Chen Sixuan breathed a sigh of relief. Throughout the night, from time to time, one could hear various large and small convoys hurrying by in the night. However, since both the railroad and the highway were located far away, not many people noticed this gigantic train parked in the wilderness. Moreover, the radio was unusable and couldn’t receive any external information. At this moment, this train was like a lonely boat in a dark ocean, inevitably raising a sense of despair in people’s hearts. Beep, beep, beep... The alarm on the watch rang, waking Chen Sixuan from a light sleep. It was now 1 AM in the deep of the night. She immediately got up and went to carriage number 1. KIKI was still unconscious, and there was still no sign of Lin Xian. Even footsteps like before had vanished. "Sister Chen." A slightly drowsy voice broke the silence inside the carriage. Sha Sha slowly sat up from the sofa, the heavy blanket sliding down to her waist. She rubbed her still sleepy eyes and looked towards Chen Sixuan, "Should we switch shifts? I can take over the front." Chen Sixuan waved her hand and whispered, "It’s alright, you go back to sleep for a bit, I’ll observe here for a while to see if there’s any other movement." "I can’t sleep," Sha Sha muttered, "with Brother Lin not back, I’m a bit restless too." "Alright, don’t worry too much. Lin Xian is a superpower user; he definitely has ways to handle situations better than us," Chen Sixuan forced a smile, although she was also feeling uneasy inside, she still tried to comfort Sha Sha. "Mhm." Sha Sha nodded. The lights inside the carriage were off, and all the blackout panels were shut, with only a faint light seeping through. Carriage number 1 was currently the most well-equipped carriage on the Infinity, crafted with much of Lin Xian’s time and effort. Inside this twenty-plus meters-long carriage there were living areas, sofas, dining tables, and storage cabinets containing food, water, and some weapons. The A33K heavy sniper rifle was also stored here by Lin Xian. The black rifle was 1557mm in total length and weighed 14.8KG. It used 12.7mm (.50BMG) tungsten core armor-piercing bullets. According to KIKI, this weapon was an absolute hardcore counter-material behemoth. Lin Xian originally wanted to give it to the Building to use, but the Building said his vision was not very good, and he was clumsy. Holding it was like holding a fire stick, and he preferred energetic light and heavy machine guns, so Lin Xian temporarily placed it here. "Sha Sha, can you teach me how to use this?" For some reason, looking at this gun, Chen Sixuan suddenly had a bizarre idea. Sёarᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Ah?!" Sha Sha exclaimed in astonishment, "Sister Chen, it’s very heavy!" Chen Sixuan took a deep breath, "I know." "But if I can help fire to cover when we encounter monsters, it could also provide an additional point of firepower and relieve some pressure on everyone."
