NOVEL NEXT Chapter 330: Nightmare_4
Buzz~
The all-terrain vehicle of Dragon Mountain No.1 drove up at this moment, linking the Infinity along with Queen Mo onto the traction engine hook. After Lin Xian laid the iron tracks under the first three traction engines of Infinity, the remaining work was handed over to the track-laying vehicle of Dragon Mountain No.1. He was left to manufacture temporary guide plates under the rear traction engines with KIKI, to increase ground traction, enabling most of the traction locomotives to output power simultaneously, thereby giving them a chance to pull all the trains forward in one go.
Time ticked by, the gap between Infinity and the rear Joker Team widened. Meanwhile, Qian Deli and Xiao Meng's team were fighting fiercely. Dozens of white humanoid monsters charged into the convoy, already taking many lives. Qian Deli was shouting frantically, urging everyone to disperse their formation and concentrate their fire.
"Xiao Meng, there's one hiding at the back!"
Boom boom!
The heavy weaponry on the train had almost leveled the vast sections of forest on both sides. Thousands of trees fell, and in the dark shadow, a white monster roared and charged forward, volumes of bullets tore through its body creating heaps of white splashes, seemingly shattering, yet twisting back into humanoid form until being completely obliterated under intensive firepower, leaving behind squirming white maggots everywhere.
Xiao Meng rushed forward, picking up a flamethrower to cleanse the white maggots.
"Watch out!"
"Activate the high-pressure screen!"
"The carriage can withstand, retreat!"
The track-laying vehicle of Dragon Mountain No.1 was in position, and at the same time, two all-terrain traction engines were connected to Infinity.
"All set!"
On Lin Xian's end, tracks had been laid under ten or so traction locomotives, but going further led to swamps and shallows, making it impossible for him to continue laying tracks.
"Brother Shi, Monica, Teacher Chen, get ready to start!"
"Lin Xian!" At this moment, KIKI pointed from the middle of the Joint Train toward the swamp and the sections of train about to be submerged. There, amidst the roaring flames, many survivors who had fallen into the water were grappling with Abnormal Bodies, and upon the vast water surface, a giant creature as big as a mountain was churning.
Boom!
Accompanied by a violent tremor, an enormous dark green figure burst from the lake shallows, engulfing dozens of people in one sweep. The massive body crashed into the train cars, instantly distorting several carriages.
It was a giant lake monster!
Seeing this, Lin Xian took a deep breath and shouted into the communicator,
"All engines start!"
Buzz! Woo!!!!!
Back in the driving compartment of Infinity, Chen Sixuan immediately increased the operating power of the four traction engines. The electric motor engines roared wildly, and the entire train, along with the makeshift iron tracks, sank several centimeters into the ground, before pulling all the trains at the rear to stop retreating and begin to slowly roll forward amidst metallic screeches.
In an instant, two all-terrain traction engines, including Infinity along with a dozen rail traction engines, exerted simultaneous force, pressing under the segmented tracks to move forward, the previously twisted carriages stretched straight, with friction screeches resounding from their links.
The Joint Train began moving forward!
"Don't push the power to the maximum all at once, or the driving wheels will slip!" Lao Mo advised Chen Sixuan from inside the carriage.
"Got it."
Vroom vroom vroom~
Numerous traction ropes pulled taut as the Joint Train moved forward on temporary iron tracks under the furious assault of darkness, while the Red Rose Team along with Wind Sail, Great Victory, Iron Fortress, and other teams trapped in the swamp also found their trains being dragged forward by a tremendous force, the strong friction of the swamp and lake tugging at the train links, emitting strange noises and even occasional bursts.
KIKI and Lin Xian, one ahead and one behind, managed to raise several carriages using telekinesis while the other secured the connection fasteners, finally accelerating the escape.
Amidst the swamp and Black Lake, with the line collapsing, many survivors have already perished.
"Lin Xian, at the current rate, even if we escape the lake, we won't outrun the dark zone. There's only one solution!"
Then, Ding Junyi, clad in Power Armor, soared to the sky under Sun Yuzhen's guidance to scout the surrounding terrain while Brother Huo flew nearby to guard the duo.
Ding Junyi, with a chilling voice, directly said,
"According to the territory theory, we can only hope for a respite by exterminating the entire neighboring area, running with the marks in Star Abyss with a very slim chance of survival."
Without tracks, we can barely move, let alone escape, we can only handle it on the spot.
"Yet this isn't the worst case..."
At this moment, Ding Junyi peered through the black mist toward the distant mountains. The moving mountains above, there was even a shattered bay in the high sky!
The bay appeared incomplete, presenting sectors of surging waves at certain angles, with the deep sea and shallow sea interlaced, and the hollow center was a pitch-black void, resembling...another dimensional world.
