Chapter 250 Snowland (Happy Chinese New Year, asking for the first monthly ticket of the new year)Chapter 250 Snowland (Happy Chinese New Year, asking for the first monthly ticket of the new year)
Woo~ Whoosh~
The howling cold wind never stopped, Lin Xian swallowed up all the cars that could be dug out, and harvested a lot of materials. The snow mounds that were originally raised in the snow were gone at this time, and the dead people in the convoy were buried in the deep snow, disappearing and being hidden under this natural disaster.
Back on the train, Chen Sixuan had already woken up. When she saw Lin Xian coming back from outside, she immediately guessed that he was going to devour the cars in the convoy.
"Would you like to eat something? It's so cold outside."
Lin Xian nodded, and the chilly feeling immediately disappeared when he returned to the car. He knew that in addition to the cold, there was also the power of fear hidden in the heavy snow, which was now blocked by the heterogeneous magic cube.
"Did you hear the sound just now?" Lin Xian asked.
Chen Sixuan nodded: "Many people were awakened, but it seems that nothing happened. Was it an earthquake?"
"It's possible, but I feel like it might be some kind of creature."
"Biological?" Chen Sixuan's expression changed: "What do you think it is?"
Lin Xian shook his head: "I don't know, we can only be more cautious. Since many people are awake, let's arrange food so that we can leave here quickly."
"Yeah." Chen Sixuan responded immediately.
Seeing that Chen Sixuan was in a very good mental state at the moment, Lin Xian immediately said, "I feel like you've changed a lot."
"Changes?" Chen Sixuan was taking something from the locker in Carriage 1. When she heard Lin Xian's words, she turned her head and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Overall, at least she doesn't look as weak as before."
"Is there?"
At this moment, a can suddenly fell from above his head. Chen Sixuan did not even turn around and reached out to catch it in the air. However, she kept looking at Lin Xian and asked in confusion, "Why didn't I feel anything? How did you know?"
Lin Xian: …
After a cold night, the train was brightly lit before dawn. In order to drive away the cold and adjust the mentality of the team members who had been tense all day yesterday, Lin Xian directly asked Chen Sixuan and Xiaoyuan Miaolu to prepare hot meals for everyone in the train to warm them up.
"Xiao Yuan, help me get a box of canned braised pork."
In the dining car, Chen Sixuan and everyone else were busy.
"Captain Chen, this, this..." Miao Lu ran into the dining car carefully holding a bunch of green things. She handed it to Chen Sixuan and said, "Look, this is the celery planted by Director Ding. Some of them are ripe. Captain Lin asked us to cook it in the soup."
"Wow!"
"Really?"
Hearing this, the busy men and women in the dining car gathered around in surprise. The handful of green food in Miao Lu's hand at this time made everyone who had not seen fresh food for a long time feel refreshed.
Chen Sixuan came over happily, looking at the handful of celery with clean roots and a fresh smell, and couldn't help but take it: "It's growing so fast, that's great, we can have vegetable soup today."
Fresh vegetables, this word seems to have become a strange word to everyone in Infinity. Under the black rain, plants became extinct on a large scale. Except for the survivors who fled at the beginning who could collect some wild green vegetables and fruits on the road, these crops gradually began to fade out of the survivors' sight.
Planting requires arable land or greenhouses, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive and is simply not something these fugitives can handle. Moreover, fresh crops are difficult to preserve. Apart from air-drying or pickling, the only way out is to rot. So as time goes by, there is less and less fresh food to be seen. For the survivors, this is a complete luxury.
This handful of fresh celery produced from planting car No. 4 made everyone feel a breath of vitality and vitality, and gave them more motivation to survive in this doomsday winter. For a moment, the atmosphere in the dining car was high spirits, and everyone chatted about their past lives, from food and hobbies to all kinds of life. The depressed feeling of spending a desperate winter night was swept away a lot.
It was 8 o'clock in the morning. Except for those on shift, everyone had woken up and the temperature in the carriage began to rise by several degrees due to people's activities.
Lin Xian ate a steaming hot breakfast with everyone and felt full of energy. Not long after, he gathered the key members to carriage No. 2 to discuss today's itinerary.
"Teacher Chen, Shuqin."
Lin Xian first gave two sets of newly made power armor to the two people: "I made this last night. I'll equip you two with it first and try it out. After activating the system, you should be able to adapt quickly."
"Wow, power armor!"
When Shasha saw it, her eyes lit up immediately: "Brother Lin, are we finally going to wear this?"
Lin Xian looked at her speechlessly: "You already have a big mecha, why do you still need this?"
"Uh~hehe." Sasha giggled: "I want to experience it too."
"You wish~" KIKI sat on the swivel chair and pulled Shasha over to knead her cold face. Looking at the two sets of power armor made by Lin Xian, KIKI nodded happily: "Not bad, you actually made two sets in one night, it's really hard work."
Chen Sixuan and Shu Qin were very surprised.
"This... do I need to wear this?" Chen Sixuan looked at the power armor in front of her and said, "Or, give it to someone else first. I spend most of my time in the car."
Shuqin also said: "Captain Lin, I think it would be best to give this to KIKI and Brother Huo first. They are superpowers and the main fighting force..."
"Well, just use it if you're allowed to."
KIKI sat cross-legged on the swivel chair with a smile on her face. She knew Lin Xian's intention, so she said to the two of them directly
"This power armor can mainly improve your mobility. You are genetically evolved, so using this power armor can be like adding wings to a tiger. Although I also want to play with it, to be honest, it is not very helpful for me. I can fly, so why do I need to run and jump? As for Brother Huo, he can't use it either. What if it burns out?"
"Not bad." Lu Xingchen leaned against the side of the carriage and nodded in agreement: "This kind of power armor will actually limit my performance. It's not practical."
"Everyone will have one in the future."
Lin Xian said directly at this time: "As a mechanical mutant, my goal is to mechanize and arm the Infinity, whether it is a person or a car, but we have to do it step by step."
He looked at Shuqin and Chen Sixuan and said, "As the backbone, you can use it first, and then you can teach others when you are proficient. I will continue to upgrade and manufacture this power armor, and its functions will become more and more powerful. As for other psychics, I have other plans. For example, Brother Huo, I heard from Director Ding that the interstellar military has a nano-carbon ceramic alloy. If used as combat armor, it can withstand temperatures over 6,000 degrees and has considerable defensive power."
Lu Xingchen shrugged and said indifferently: "Actually, I don't need..."
"That armor is very cool."
Lin Xian added.
"Brother Lin, please speed up the research and development!" Lu Xingchen's face changed instantly, and the look he gave Lin Xian seemed extremely sincere and eager.
Lin Xian nodded, and then said to KIKI and the building: "To put it simply, the functions are different. This power armor is not of much help to you at the moment, but it does not mean that you cannot use the armor."
Da Lou nodded and said, "It's okay. I'll follow Brother Xian's arrangements."
Upon hearing this, Shuqin nodded excitedly: "Okay, I will also follow Captain Lin's arrangements."
After saying that, she stood in front of the power armor, reached out and began to put it on.
Chen Sixuan looked at Lin Xian meaningfully, knowing that Lin Xian wanted to protect her. She also wanted to stand up for herself, so her eyes gradually became firm, and she walked forward and put on the light gray power armor.
In an instant, two cool-looking female warriors wearing light grey power armor appeared in everyone's sight.
"Wow, so handsome!" Sasha exclaimed.
Shuqin felt full of strength at this moment. She stretched out her hand and clenched her fist. The power unit on her body responded flexibly. This power armor not only did not make people feel cumbersome, but instead made people feel that everything was much easier!
"It's really amazing." She exclaimed.
In addition to assisting the limbs in power output, this power armor can also perform some preset actions, allowing the power armor to actively pull the operator to perform actions, and can also passively avoid risks at certain critical moments.
Of course, this active traction action can be turned off to prevent the power armor from affecting the operator's original actions.
Chen Sixuan was now adapting to the surging power brought by the power armor on her body, and her expression became more confident.
A holographic light screen popped up in front of my eyes.
[Program start]
After putting it on, Chen Sixuan started the power armor program.
[New user identification successful, please enter user information. ]
"Chen Sixuan."
After the information was entered, the power armor began to detect the condition of Chen Sixuan's limbs and muscles. The joints began to automatically contract and tighten, and soon began to fit her torso and become a perfect fit.
She tried to move her hands and feet, and the transmission torque came at an extremely fast rate, making her feel as light as a swallow in an instant.
Looking forward again, the teammates in front of him were now located one by one by the target capture system of the power armor system, and then various vital signs information were displayed.
Seeing this scene, Chen Sixuan's eyes lit up. This function seemed to be very suitable for her identity as a sniper, because she had also had some initial contact with it on the smart sight of Meteorite 3.
At this moment, the power armor on her body seemed to have an additional mobile battlefield intelligent computer to assist her, and at the same time it could help her to maneuver quickly.
Chen Sixuan had met Amin and Lolo, two girls from the Sun-chasing convoy. The seemingly weak girls could actually be as light as a swallow under the operation of the mecha, and quickly shuttle through the surging insect swarms to kill the insects. Their coolness and agility were truly shocking.
"Okay, time to get down to business."
Lin Xian changed the subject and said to everyone, "Same as always, we'll set out before dawn."
"Yeah." KIKI turned around, operated the computer and pulled up a map and began to say: "If we set off two hours earlier, we can probably reach Dalat Town before dawn from our current location."
"But we won't stop at Dalat."
Lin Xian said: "Based on the current situation, we have to rush to Xilan with all our strength. The area around Yaze Lake should be the center of the extremely cold vortex. The blizzard may be even bigger. We don't have time and can't stop halfway."
Chen Sixuan nodded: "Based on the wind and snow conditions brought by the extreme cold vortex, we really can't stop. It's already difficult to move the train in this kind of heavy snow."
"So we are going to rush to Xilan in one go?"
Shuqin said with some concern: "During the day?"
"Impossible." Lin Xian activated his mechanical heart, and the sunshade of carriage No. 2 rose up in unison. He looked at the deep snow outside and said, "It's difficult for us to start the car in such thick snow, and it's impossible to increase the speed very quickly, so we must run overnight. My idea is that Xilan City has a Phoenix station and many other survivor organizations. As long as we arrive, we can get firepower support even at night."
"Wow, doesn't that mean we have to fight those snow monsters along the way?" KIKI frowned and said, "Aren't you afraid that the marking will cause more trouble in the dark?"
"We can only play it by ear."
Lin Xian stood up and said, "If the situation is good, we can do the same as yesterday and choose to stay in Chixia or Sufeng Village. If the situation is not good, we can only run to Xilan at night. What we can do is to start blocking with all our strength outside the city and try not to bring larger hidden dangers into the city."
"Then today will be a tough battle." Chen Sixuan said.
"Yeah." Lin Xian nodded and looked at KIKI and Lu Xingchen: "Not only that, there is a tough battle to fight now."
Infinity starts!
The snow is so thick that it almost covers 2/3 of the ice shield. The tracks and wheels are already frozen and buried by ice and snow. It is very difficult to start the train, not to mention increasing its speed potential energy.
Therefore, the only way is to use the abilities of KIKI and Lu Xingchen to first break through the snow layer and clear a starting space, wait for the speed potential energy of Infinity to increase, and then rely on the powerful momentum to break through the snow layer and move forward.
It was 9 o'clock in the morning. Everything on the Infinity was ready. KIKI and Lu Xingchen, one on the roof and the other in the cockpit, began to prepare to clear the snow.
"We need to be fast."
Chen Sixuan looked at the hillsides on both sides of the mountain pass and said, "The snow on the mountain is too thick. Our large-scale snow clearing is likely to cause the snow on both sides to slide and form an avalanche, so it's best to get it done in one go. Let's speed up and rush out."
Although Mount Uliyastai is a series of low mountains and not very steep, a landslide from such a high altitude is a huge hidden danger. The chain reaction formed will inevitably cause huge vibrations and may even bury the entire car in the snow.
"That's right, we have one chance." Lin Xian also said at this time.
"It's okay." Lu Xingchen said into the communicator while holding fire in his hands to keep himself warm.
KIKI stood in the cockpit and said proudly, "How big of a problem can this be? Even if I help, can't I handle this little bit of snow?"
"Brother Huo! I'll wait for you to make the first move!" KIKI said in the communicator.
"no problem."
The two reached a consensus. Lu Xingchen took a deep breath and stood in the howling cold wind with a burning flame in his eyes.
Cluster~!
A burning breath began to surge over his body, and the frost and snow on Lu Xingchen's clothes were all evaporated in an instant. The steaming heat wave began to radiate around, and even the ice on the roof of the car under his feet was rapidly melting around.
"This move is named..."
"Fire Explosion Sky Road!"
Boom!
He raised his hands above his head, and in an instant a huge red fire shot up into the sky, like a bright pillar of fire, instantly illuminating the surrounding darkness.
Then Lu Xingchen shouted coldly, and slammed the huge pillar of fire forward. At the same time, the flame sprayed out a flaming blue Mach ring, setting off a huge airflow roar!
Boom!!! In the mountain pass, the howling cold wind was instantly blown into disorder, and the collision of cold and hot air currents produced a strong updraft, and the snowflakes flying in the air flew towards the sky one after another.
A huge jet of fire hit the snow in front of the Infinity directly, and it evaporated in an instant, turning into a hole.
It's not over yet.
KIKI found the right moment, his eyes glowed with fluorescence, his hands moved forward, used his powerful telekinesis to grab the surging pillar of fire, and then pushed it!
Wow! The flames were controlled by telekinesis and exploded forward. The snow layer in front of the Infinity train was emptied out like ice cream scooped out by an iron spoon, leaving a hollow area hundreds of meters long. The black rails below were clearly visible under the illumination of the car lights, and even the rails were emitting boiling heat, without a trace of ice or snow.
Woo!
Taking advantage of this moment, Lin Xian directly started the engines of the two locomotives. With the hum of the motors, huge power began to be output. The steel behemoth buried in the snow let out a ferocious roar, and the ice all over its body shattered and fell off. The snow on the roof quickly slid to the sides, and the iron wheels turned and began to move forward.
Rumble!
At this time, as the train moved, the snow on both sides of the road began to collapse onto the track, and soon formed a chain reaction. Coupled with the huge movement caused by Lu Xingchen and KIKI just now, a large amount of snow began to split and slide, gathering down onto the track.
Bang, bang, bang!
The Infinity was accelerating!
Ice shells and icicles kept falling, making a crashing sound, but the pillar of fire in front did not disappear. KIKI and Lu Xingchen were still maintaining their ability output to clear the way.
"quick!"
"Girl, keep an eye on Brother Huo up there. Don't let him get swept away by the avalanche."
"rest assured!"
Boom, boom, boom. A large amount of snow kept sliding down like dominoes and hitting both sides of the Infinity, instantly making the carriage dark. However, because of the potential energy of the train, the carriages quickly filed out of the thick snow.
"Speed up!" Chen Sixuan shouted.
"Brother Huo, come down." Lin Xian shouted in the communicator.
When Lu Xingchen heard the order, he immediately turned off the engine and quickly ran to the hatch of carriage No. 5 and returned to the carriage.
At this time, the Infinity had accelerated to a speed of 80km. Inside the cockpit, KIKI was still using his special powers to separate the snow layer in front.
90KM.
Bang, bang, bang, the front of the car broke through the heavy snow.
100KM!
The snow dust exploded and flew all the way to the sky!
"Enough!" Lin Xian shouted at KIKI.
"I can still hold on." said KIKI.
Lin Xian grabbed her, and then grabbed Chen Sixuan: "Get ready to hit!"
With a speed of 100 km/h and a steel rail train weighing several thousand tons, plus the ice-breaking shield in front, Lin Xian knew that such potential energy was enough to break through the snow layer and move forward, so he asked KIKI to stop the output of supernatural powers without hesitation.
Bang! Swoosh!
In an instant, the Infinity collided head-on with the 1.5-meter-thick snow layer in front of it. The whole car was shaken violently by the inertia of the impact. Everyone felt a huge forward force. This steel behemoth directly cut through the snow layer in front of it with huge potential energy, raising huge snow, and continued to rush through the snow.
Woo~!!!
The engine of the Jujing 03E heavy-duty gas turbine locomotive roared wildly. A large amount of deep snow rubbed against the guard plates and flap decks on both sides of the train, making a buzzing and vibrating sound. Looking out from the windows in the carriage, the snow surface was even only a dozen centimeters away from the windows.
Standing in the cockpit and watching the snow in front being violently torn apart, Chen Sixuan was shocked. Lin Xian now knew that the entire train was running at full power. He looked at the speedometer, 95KM, this speed exceeded his previous expectations, but the problem was that it could not be reduced.
Once this speed slows down, it will be difficult to add more. If the snowstorm comes again and the snow layer becomes thicker, it may even gradually stop.
So now the Infinity can only rush forward desperately like a runaway train that can't stop.
In the darkness, a strong wind howled.
Soon, the train drove out of the mountain pass and into the endless snowfield.
Lin Xian, Chen Sixuan and KIKI were in the cockpit on high alert at this time, but after driving for dozens of kilometers, the scene of being attacked by the snow monster did not occur.
"Director Ding." Lin Xian quickly asked Ding Junyi using the communicator.
"Nothing's wrong, it's safe." Ding Junyi's words made Lin Xian and the other two a little stunned.
Safety?
How is it possible? It is night now. Yesterday they saw how there were a large number of snow monsters hiding in the snow. For this reason, Lin Xian was ready to fight all the way until dawn. But at this time, the situation was beyond his expectations again.
"Hey, that's strange, could it be that those things only come out during the day and not at night?" KIKI said with a puzzled look on his face.
"Impossible." Lin Xian shook his head. "Someone in the radio station intelligence has already said that the snow demon is more violent at night. How could it not come out at night?"
"It's really weird." Chen Sixuan frowned, looking at the snow layer that was lifted up under the train headlights in front of her, and said, "Have we passed the snow monster's territory? Is this the area of some other strange creature?"
"It's possible."
Lin Xian thought about it and felt that this was possible. Facts had proved many times that some advanced strange creatures had territories and territorial awareness. The fact that the snow monsters did not appear might indicate that some large strange creature existed in this area.
But the problem is that the Hell Black Chrysanthemum did not change at all. This weird scene made Lin Xian a little confused.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered the earthquake and the roar before. At that time, Lin Xian seemed to hear the sound of a large number of snow monsters boiling, but now he couldn't see any. He wondered if they were affected by the earthquake?
"Oh, whether there is one or not, we can't stop." KIKI said seriously: "Who cares? We have no choice but to go all the way. Let's take it one step at a time."
"That's right." Lin Xian nodded.
Just as he finished speaking, a black object suddenly appeared in the snow in front of him. Before anyone could react, Infinity crashed into it directly.
Bang!
In an instant, sparks flew everywhere, and the black object was directly knocked apart, split into several pieces, and flew out.
Several people reacted quickly and found that it was actually a car dragging on the track, but the inside and outside of the car were filled with wind and snow. The Infinity had smashed it into pieces, and a piece of the frame was still hanging on the ice-breaking shield. At the same time, a piece of corpse tissue fell on the windshield, leaving a series of ice marks, and then flew out quickly and fell hard into the snow.
