Armed Train in the Apocalypse

Lin Jin looked terrified, "Aren't we comrades fighting side by side? Why are you shooting at them?"

Su Huan smacked his lips and casually said, "You're still young, you don't understand. Fighting doesn't always have to be shoulder to shoulder. It can also be against each other; competing with one another actually helps build relationships even more!"

'What kind of relationship building is that?!'

Mountain Goat was silently ranting in his mind, but his expression remained unchanged.

He had no doubt that if he showed any dissatisfaction, Su Huan would shoot him without hesitation.

Not everyone gets the chance to experience an anti-materiel sniper rifle at point-blank range.

But isn't being alive better?

Lin Jin stared blankly, "Are you enemies?"

Because the previous shot had already shattered the front windshield, Su Huan extended the barrel out, squinting against the violent acid rain hitting his face, "What do you mean by enemies? Let me reintroduce myself, I'm the captain of the armed train, Su Huan."

With those words, a cold blue beam once again pierced through the intercepting vehicle in Lin Jin's despairing eyes.

"Steel Council, Lin Jin... Why are you saving me?"

Lin Jin hesitated for a moment, deciding to struggle, since no one currently knew he had boarded the wrong train.

"Because you're good-looking, although not as much as me, I think bringing you on board won't lower the train's standards." Su Huan said nonsense casually.

Upon hearing the word "join", Lin Jin was silent for a moment.

Then resolutely said, "I owe you a life, which I can return at any time, but I cannot join."

Behind the scope, Su Huan's eyes narrowed to a slit.

"Why?"

Xiaoba, hiding behind the driver's seat, shielded the acid rain pouring in with his hand, feeling the tension between the two, as the gossip flames in his heart burned brightly, his eyes sparkled.

He subconsciously compared the two's handsome profiles.

The captain's profile was more defined, with a sharp wildness, appearing lazy but occasionally revealing a sharp edge.

Like a mysterious and dangerous black cat.

Lin Jin's profile was clear but not sharp, like a big brother next door, giving a sense of firm steadiness.

Like a domesticated orange cat.

'It's really hard to choose…'

However, nobody was paying attention to her gossipy thoughts right now.

Lin Jin quickly said, "My sister is still in the company, if I join you, she might be in danger."

"You have a sister?!"

Su Huan was quite surprised.

Hadn't heard of it!

But it was understandable—like his identity in the past life—even Li Tao's existence he hadn't known about.

With that, some things reluctantly made sense; in his previous life, Lin Jin was coerced by the Steel Council with unknown means involving his family, thus had always served them.

Was the eventual fallout also because of the sister?

"Don't worry, Mountain Goat's family is also in the Steel Council, with some speed they can be rescued by tonight."

Su Huan reassured.

Lin Jin opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, then said, "The company said my sister has dual domain potential as a manipulator and a collector, so she can receive great training there. I..."

"Dual domain" was a term like thunder exploding in Su Huan's ears, his eyes instantly unfocused, his mind blank, unable to hear the rest.

The shock from this term even surpassed seeing the Steel Council's emblem on Mojiang Bridge!

All information flashed through his chaotic mind like sources of spiritual energy at the dawn of time.

'Dual domain'

'Sister'

'Battle factor'

'Pan-energy Transformation'

'Escape'

'Betrayal of the company'

'Great fire'

'My path has long been destined…'

While failing to grasp the precise logic, his mind instantly pieced these elements into a vague chain.

And the origin of all issues emerged from "dual domain"; he could never have imagined that what he thought was fortune in his past life was the fundamental reason for being inexplicably hunted!

With this foundation, many doubts were easily resolved.

Initially, the person behind the scenes providing him information to flee was necessarily someone familiar with the concept of dual talents and shared a bond with him, knowing the dire outcome if dual talents fell into the company's hands!

Thus, there was only one…

Su Huan looked at Lin Jin nervously explaining in the rearview mirror, a subtle smile on his lips, "How long has it been since you've seen your sister?"

Lin Jin, who was babbling on, suddenly froze, confused as to why Su Huan asked, "About a week, once the war is over, I can see her."

"How about tonight?"

"Tonight?!"

"Yes, tonight. Don't always sacrifice yourself. At least let the person involved know, isn't it better to listen to her choice?"

"But the company headquarters isn't here, we..."

Lin Jin paused for a moment, letting out a soft sigh.

"Rest assured, I'm more aware than you of where the Steel Council's headquarters is."

Originally, he intended to retreat after finding Lin Jin.

But who would've thought things unknowingly accumulated like this.

He Jie, Mountain Goat's family.

Lin Jin's sister.

And the secret about dual domain Evolver.

Listening to the intensifying gunfire on the battlefield approaching, Su Huan's eyes sparkled electrifyingly, a wild smile played on his lips.

Steel Council, oh what a Steel Council!!

"Su...huh? You're back?"

A gentle voice with a hint of surprise sounded.

The speeding off-road vehicle swerved, smashed through a metal fence, and headed straight towards the last section of the steel train ahead.

Su Huan licked his lips, "Open the garage, then tell them, the captain is back!"
