Chapter 177 Rain Town (monthly tickets will add more updates, thank you!)
Ta-ta-ta! !
The sound of gunfire in the carriage behind was loud, and the monsters roared and attacked the train's armor plate all the time.
Lin Xian was worried. At this time, the view in front of the train gradually broadened. A platform with many tank cars parked and the outline of an industrial town in the distance came into view.
"Yuzhen Station?"
Chen Sixuan checked the trip computer nervously: "This branch line is connected to the main track of the Ring Star. You should be able to return to the track if you go forward."
"No!"
Lin Xian stared ahead. On the track, there was an oil tank car blocking the front of the Infinity.
He immediately felt bad and immediately controlled the entire train to brake suddenly.
squeak!
All the iron wheels stopped spinning, sparks were flying on the track, and the rails were red. Everyone in the carriage was brought unsteady by the inertia, and bursts of screams could be heard.
As the car braked, filth fell from the roof of the car, and the smell of hot steel mixed with the fishy smell began to spread.
"What to do?"
"Back up! Rush out!" Lin Xian gritted his teeth, and in desperation, he was about to start moving backwards.
But at this time, a strange scene occurred. The sound of attacks from behind the carriage suddenly stopped, and the gunshots gradually stopped. When no one could react, KIKI discovered the clues through the monitoring system.
"Lin Xian, it seems that none of the monsters have followed."
"What's going on?"
"Shu Qin."
"Team Lin, those weird objects are gone." Shu Qin's voice came from the communicator: "I checked and found that the rear compartment is intact and not damaged."
"The middle section is no problem," the building also said on the communicator.
In Car No. 2, KIKI checked through the sentry system. Although the armor outside the car and the roof were in a mess, the integrity of the armor was not damaged, but there were many pieces of insect corpses stuffed in the gaps.
Lin Xian and Chen Sixuan looked at each other in shock when they heard Shu Qin's words. He immediately got up and ran to Car No. 2. Sure enough, in the Sentinel system, there were no monsters outside the Infinity.
Chi~
Arriving at Car No. 5 again, Lin Xian opened the car door, and a strong fishy smell came out. There were still some monster limbs hanging on the roof of the car, but there was indeed no movement outside at this time, so he closed the door again and said to KIKI
"Girl, use the drone to take a look."
"That's what I meant."
KIKI knew that Lin Xian was very cautious, so he immediately raised two drones and began to inspect the entire train in the dark.
From the perspective of the drone, the outside of the Infinity carriage was filled with a tragic scene. Fortunately, the interior was not breached.
And when the drone raised the camera angle, Lin Xian saw a large number of black shadows quickly disappearing into the old forest on the side of the road in the distance.
"What's going on!?" Shasha stood nearby and said with a surprised expression: "Brother Lin, it seems that those monsters can't get in."
Can't get in?
Lin Xian was confused when he heard this.
KIKI looked at this scene, frowned slightly, pointed at the screen and said
"Yes, Lin Xian, why does it seem like there is some kind of... enchantment?"
"Yuzhen is not a famous place. There are many chemical plants here." Chen Sixuan said at this time: "Did some chemical plant leak make those monsters afraid to approach?"
Lin Xian shook his head, stood up and opened the visor, looking at the empty freight platform outside with a solemn expression
"When something goes wrong, there must be a monster. Little girl, you first use a drone to survey the road ahead to see how long the cars blocking the track are. All of us don't get out of the car yet and observe this place."
< br>
"Shu Qin, is anyone injured behind you?"
"Captain Lin, everything is safe and there is no problem." Shu Qin's voice came, and Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief. Just after nightfall, he encountered a series of situations that made Lin Xian's whole body tense.
He was still having a headache about how to escape the suffocating tide of weird bugs, but he suddenly entered this ghostly town, and the weirdest thing was that when he came to this place, he felt safe.
This situation was something Lin Xian had never encountered before.
Because it was not a steel city wall, Lin Xian thought to himself, could there be something that could invisibly block those monsters?
Lin Xian walked all the way from Car No. 1 to Car No. 12 and checked. Although the interior of the car was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke and anxiety, fortunately, no one was in any condition. Many people in the living area were also confused at this time. , and some people are thankful to have escaped.
"Wow, if we stay in the car tonight, we will definitely be doomed, there are so many monsters."
"That's right, I'm scared to death..."
"Captain Lin, are you okay?" In the living area, the little girl Miao Lu saw Lin Xian coming over and stood up and asked enthusiastically.
Lin Xian said: "I'm fine. Did those monsters suddenly run away when we entered the station just now?"
Miao Lu shook her head: "I didn't pay much attention. It was like all of a sudden, the monster retreated and there was no movement at all."
"Yes." Shu Qin also came over at this time: "It's very strange. I have never encountered such a situation before."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Lin Xian nodded: "Okay, everyone, cheer up. The situation with so many monsters just now may happen again, so be mentally prepared in advance."
The whole car was covered with strange bodies. Not only Lin Xian, but Shu Qin and others were also caught off guard. If it weren't for the thick armor, the dozens of people in this car would have become the monster's food.
Lin Xian used his mechanical heart to check the integrity of each carriage along the way, and repaired some fasteners along the way.
When he arrived at Car No. 3, he was stopped by Ding Junyi.
I saw Ding Junyi pointing to the pot of No. 1 Blood Calamity Plant with a serious face at this time, taking a deep breath and saying: "I have been paying attention, and just now the Hell Black Chrysanthemum has changed."
Lin Xian's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly walked over, frowned at the black chrysanthemum, and said immediately: "The red light...is it a little darker?"
"That's right."
Ding Junyi nodded and said: "Not only that, during the fight just now, I saw a wisp of black smoke being inhaled by it, and then its red light weakened a lot."
"Black smoke..." Lin Xian frowned: "When we killed the strange body before, this kind of smoke would appear."
"So we should have killed some weird bodies in the process just now." Ding Junyi said.
"What does this mean?" Lin Xian asked.
Ding Junyi crossed her arms: "The appearance of the strange blood essence is also accompanied by that kind of black smoke. According to this logic, the disaster plant should have the ability to absorb the power of this black smoke."
"That makes sense." Lin Xian nodded with a gloomy expression: "But we don't know what it does or what it means."
"We can't detect this change in the laboratory." Ding Junyi said: "So now we at least know some of its characteristics. If you have time, please kill a few more, or catch a few weird bodies, for convenience I will test how the black smoke produced after the death of the strange body changes the disaster plants, or the distance factor it can absorb, etc. The more experiments, the sooner we can know the experimental results."
Lin Xian was startled for a moment: "Huh?"
He thought he heard wrongly and pointed at his face.
"Catch a few weird bodies, what do you think about me?"
Ding Junyi tilted her head slightly, her gaze under her black-rimmed glasses looked very serious: "Yes, from a scientific point of view, the conclusions drawn from more experimental comparisons will be relatively accurate."
Are these ladies speaking human language?
"Forget it. If a monster dies near the train later, you can just observe it." Lin Xian walked away speechlessly. Although he knew what Ding Junyi meant, he was really not in the mood to talk about the experiment at this time.
Catching weird bodies? Who could do such a stupid thing, impossible, impossible in this life.
Lin Xian said with such hatred in his heart.
