Chapter 331: Deceit Python
"I know, let's get the train up first!"
Woo woo woo, Lin Xian's drone was circling overhead, red pulse beams flashing constantly. As he watched the train advance, he and KIKI headed back towards the Infinity. The giant serpent stirred up monstrous waves in the Black Lake, and at the speed of the Dragon Mountain No.1 track layer, the whole train could be dragged into the water, so he had to go back and continue creating the track!
At this point, the communication frequency was out of contact with Hu Lushou, Lu Zhao, and the rest of the convoy. Their situation was unknown.
The conditions along the way were extremely brutal, and Lin Xian's heart pounded wildly. He was also worried about his team's status while planning that in an extreme situation, they must abandon some of the convoys at the rear. All the traction hooks of the train convoys here were manufactured by him, so he could directly detach any train if he chose to. The most likely candidates would be those carriages that hadn't come ashore and were still in the lake and marshlands.
While watching the train slowly move forward, Lin Xian was making plans. If that giant serpent appeared, he would have to use the gravitational lens to attempt to kill it, even at the risk of exhausting his energy. But his primary goal now was to lay tracks for the train; otherwise, no one knew how many more massive creatures lay beneath the Black Lake!
"What the hell is this ghost place?" KIKI darted along with Lin Xian, lending a hand in eliminating some of the smaller monsters along the way to alleviate some pressure on the convoys.
Lin Xian glanced at the rapidly spinning compass on his watch and shook his head, "I don't know, this place is even stranger than Yijin City during the Extreme Night. The mountains don't seem like mountains, the water doesn't seem like water; I don't even know if this is still Blue Star."
This feeling wasn't unfounded. Observing through the optoelectronic system of his power armor, he saw drifting distant mountains, floating sea bay fragments, the eerie navy-blue sky, devoid of stars or moon. If not for the forest trees and soil, Lin Xian would have thought he had entered another dimension.
"Watch out!"
Suddenly, a swarm of dark shadows swooped down from the black mist in the sky. Lin Xian's power armor sounded a rapid alarm, and KIKI reacted immediately.
Swish swish swish, KIKI raised her hand, and the Silver Blade Torrent around her surged upwards, crashing into those dark shadows.
Lin Xian looked up and saw to his surprise that above him was a Monster Tide composed of countless twisted flying insects, moving at an incredible speed, akin to hummingbirds. In a flash, it caught the defensive personnel of a convoy below off guard, and amid the chaotic impact, several people were bitten away. The monster then violently stabbed its abdominal spike into the survivors' abdomens, seemingly injecting some unknown substance.
KIKI's Silver Blade Storm shredded the swarm of insects flying towards the two of them, causing sparks to scatter across the sky, revealing the extremely tough skin of those insects.
Woo!
Lin Xian's twenty-two Thunder Falcon Drones also soared into the sky, firing pulse rays rapidly, suppressing the momentum.
[High-speed object approaching from the left side!]
The Black Hawk Power Armor promptly reacted, and Lin Xian braced himself instinctively, raising the AT Force Field Shield even before he could see what was in the Dark Forest.
Clang clang clang!
In an instant, dozens of black spikes shot rapidly, hitting his force field shield, a jet of black smoke spraying as KIKI pushed with a Telekinesis Shield to disperse it immediately upon seeing this.
"Hurry back!"
The bizarre attacks were becoming more frequent, sinking Lin Xian's heart. He estimated that the casualties across the whole Joint Train would not be small. However, all he could do now was speed up the train.
Soon, Lin Xian returned to the front of the train, where the regions of Dragon Mountain No.1 and Infinity's Queen Mo were ablaze with conflict. Whether due to the highest energy and firepower here or because it was deep in the forest, a large number of Abnormal Bodies feared this area, overwhelming Shi Deyuan, Qian Deli, Monica, Ning Jing, and others.
Infinity's 1130 had gone through two rounds and required reloading intervals. Three electromagnetic guns and several Gatlings were firing in every direction.
Enemies were everywhere, and defensive lines were set up all around.
Sha Sha's Sally wielded a flamethrower in one hand and a Fire God Machine Gun with devastating firepower in the other!
"Another big spider, I hate big spiders, let's see you try this!"
Seeing the rapidly moving big spider in the woods, Sha Sha pressed the button to activate a device on Fire God's chest, bang!
In an instant, a modified Plasma Cluster Device fired a High-pressure Guiding Cable, striking the spider's abdomen and promptly detonating with a ghostly blue plasma beam. The gigantic spider's abdomen exploded, sending a mass of guts and fluid raining down.
"Oh yeah!!!" Sha Sha shouted excitedly upon seeing the secret weapon's success.
Elsewhere, Da Lou and Liang Lei's assault teams stabilly wielded heavy weapons and held defensive formations on both sides of the Infinity, suppressing the dark creatures attacking from the forest. Leading the charge, the duo was already knee-deep in a sea of corpses and blood.
Meanwhile, the mobile group—Shu Qin, Lv Chang, Li Guangwen, and Luo Luomin, along with over twenty agile body technique masters in power armor—constantly moved through the front lines, hunting down fast-moving monsters.
Chen Sixuan and the reconnaissance team guarded the rooftop, using anti-aircraft guns, various sniper rifles, electromagnetic guns, and other weaponry to defend against aerial attacks.
