“That’s not right. I used the wind cannon twice on that white monster. How come it increased so much?”

Lin Xian looked at the wind cannon proficiency and it became 12. He immediately doubted his life.

He thought that he would increase his skill by 1 point each time he used it, but he didn't expect that he would suddenly take a big step forward.

"Could it be that in a critical situation, he could greatly improve his proficiency in skills?"

After thinking about it, Lin Xian felt that this guess was more likely.

At the same time, the benefits brought to him by swallowing a small-displacement truck were also extremely huge, 30 mechanical source points, 10 swallowing proficiency, and even 12 attribute points!

It was really a big profit.

"Fuck, if I had a parking lot, I would work 996 directly without taking a break..."

Lin Xian said angrily in his heart.

But he knew that this was just a thought.

In the situation just now, if it wasn't for the smoke coming out of his ancestral grave, he really couldn't think of any other reason that could keep him alive.

The monster must have stood beside him for a while, because he did hear some kind of movement in advance.

Perhaps it was because he kept his concentration and didn't make any noise, so the monster didn't take action immediately.

Otherwise, he would have become a spicy skewers.

Sure enough, otherwise how can we say high risk and high return.

It takes Lin Xian at least an hour and a half to devour a car. Not only does he need to stay focused, but he also needs to spend a lot of physical strength. Under the influence of the dark tide, the daytime in Jiang City is less than 4 hours a day.

How can he have so much time and opportunity to devour slowly? Once it enters the night, who knows what ghost things will come out.

"Can I pull a freight car, and then I will slowly devour it at night..." At this time, he had an idea

But he quickly denied it

"It seems... Tsk, no, no!"

"An empty freight car is just an iron frame, which can't increase much income, unless you pull a locomotive or something..."

"But it will take a long time to devour a locomotive of hundreds of tons, and it is still a problem whether the physical strength is enough."

Lin Xian has actually made a lot of assumptions in the past few months, but when he applied it to practice, he found that it was not as simple as he thought.

15:00

The sky suddenly lit up, and Jiang City ushered in a brief dawn.

The whole city was lonely. Lin Xian looked to the northwest from the distance of the intercity line. There was still a gray and black area there, as if it was wrapped in some huge storm.

Lin Xian knew that the direction was Lucheng and Dingzhou, which was also the area that disappeared the earliest on the day of the apocalypse.

Because that was the center of the No. 3 "Xingyuan"!

Compared with the people there, Jiang City, which was like a ruin at this time, could even be considered a lucky one. At least it left time for a large number of citizens to migrate, and there were still many survivors lingering.

Lin Xian still remembered that he had traveled to Lucheng. The rice noodles and barbecue there were very unique, which made him linger for a time.

However, these cultural symbols of mankind turned into ashes in an instant under the doomsday.

The light from the gap in the armor of the car window fell on Chen Sixuan's face. She slowly opened her eyes and saw that Lin Xian was welding the bed frame at this time. She immediately turned over in surprise and apologized with a guilty face.

"I'm sorry... Lin Xian, did I oversleep..."

"It's okay." Lin Xian said without looking back, "I saw that you were not in good condition, and last night was special. That weird thing might come again, so I didn't wake you up."

Even though it was dawn now, Lin Xian was still frightened.

Even his steel fortress might not be able to stop the white giant, and even if Chen Sixuan stood up to keep watch, it would be useless.

The most urgent task was for him to continuously strengthen the protection of "Infinity" and also to quickly improve his own strength.

"You...didn't sleep all night?"

Lin Xian finished welding the steel bed, got up, took a bottle of water and handed it to Chen Sixuan. "Today we are going to pass the freight loading and unloading point in Jiang City. The situation there may be a little troublesome. You should be mentally prepared in advance."

"Okay." Chen Sixuan, who was full of guilt, nodded quickly and said, "I will follow you today."

"No, I need your help with something else."

Lin Xian took Chen Sixuan to the cockpit. At this time, he had already started the "Infinity" and began to move forward slowly. While moving, he said to Chen Sixuan

"This main road should not deviate from the turnout when it merges into the Jiangyu Line. If there is a chance, I will tow an electric locomotive on the road today. At that time, I will get off the car in advance to operate the track switch machine. When docking the carriages, I need you to help me operate the docking command."

Lin Xian pointed to several operating buttons and patiently explained to Chen Sixuan.

"This is to release, this is to match the connection, this is to dock the gate, and this is to test the passage..."

These professional terms are actually not unfamiliar to Chen Sixuan. She has been influenced by her father's knowledge of railways since she was a child. She knows that this is the operation process of connecting rail train carriages. However, the actual operation is still a daughter's. The first time I got on a sedan chair.

So she listened to Lin Xian's explanation very attentively, for fear of missing any details.

The connection of carriages is also a very complicated matter for Lin Xian. The main reason is that he cannot control two carriages at the same time and use the mechanical heart to drive them, and in order to change tracks, he must get off the car and actively operate the track switch machine.

But as soon as he got off the train, the "Infinity" lost its power source. The only way was for him to "hand push" it forward while the gate and buffer coupler of the other electric locomotive had to be released.

In this situation of losing energy, he has to run around on both sides...

Another point is that if such an electric locomotive is found, he has to place it behind the gas turbine and in front of Car No. 1.

Because the front of the Whale 03E is already equipped with a layer of armor, and the heavy-duty gas turbine is rougher and thicker than the electric locomotive, it can only be placed in the second section.

In general, this operation is relatively complicated. Lin Xian alone would have to do it for at least a whole day. Now with Chen Sixuan, he can save at least half a day.

Bang, bang, bang.

The train slowly drove out of the main city and headed towards Jiangshi Station.

Coming out of the city, the view suddenly opened up, and several main roads out of the city suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.

But just for a moment, Lin Xian and Chen Sixuan's expressions changed.

Tens of thousands of cars lined up on several main roads, completely blocking the road. Blood, broken limbs, burning vehicle frames, and luggage and clothes scattered on the ground all told the two of them that the road out of the city was already a hell on earth. .

When the darkness passed, there was no living person in sight, and zombies were wandering all over the mountains and plains.

"Those who should have run away have already run away, and the rest can't run away."

The road out of the city has been completely blocked. Unless you drive a tank or take an unknown path, the only way to escape the city is your legs.

But the polar night is getting closer and closer, and there are only more than three hours of daylight left. How far can we go with our legs?

In other words, even if you leave the city, what will you do after dark?

Even Lin Xian, a person with special abilities, felt powerless against the monsters in the dark night, let alone ordinary people.

Looking at the tragic scene on the main road, Chen Sixuan's eyes trembled slightly, and then he looked at the clear railway ahead. At this time, he was extremely happy that he knew Lin Xian, and he was even more grateful to be able to board this train.

The slowly moving train also attracted the attention of some survivors hiding at home beside the railway. A few silent glances fell, and some people began to whisper.

"Train? How is that possible!"

"Where did it come from..."

"Stop! Stop!" someone shouted loudly in a certain building

"Take me one, I have supplies...!"

"Keep your voice down, we'll attract the zombies and that's it!"

"Close the windows quickly!!"

Dang~

Some people even threw stones at the train and shouted like crazy

"Stop and let me get on the handlebars!!"

"Will they... come to snatch things?" Chen Sixuan asked nervously when he heard the sound of stones being thrown down.

"I'm not here to show courtesy anyway." Lin Xian responded calmly.

In order to survive in the apocalypse, it is not unusual to fight for supplies to the death.

Rule of Survival Article 3: A dead Taoist friend will never die a poor Taoist.

"Classmate Lin, look..." Chen Sixuan's voice was very pleasant. Every time she spoke, Lin Xian felt that his choice to save people became clearer. Having such a woman in his escape journey made him feel better. It always reminded him of Chen Sixuan wearing black-rimmed glasses and explaining words to him seriously in school.

Lin Xian heard the voice, looked up, and couldn't help but shrink his pupils.

It's snowing.

Outside the train, there were snowflakes flying, falling on the windows and turning into little drops of water.

"Has winter arrived?" Chen Sixuan stared blankly at the falling snow outside the window and said to himself.

According to the seasons, there should be several months of winter left.

But in the past few days, Jiang City has been getting colder and colder. At this time, when the falling snowflakes fell, Lin Xian felt a little chill in his heart. It seemed that his worries were not groundless.

In addition to darkness, zombies, and weirdness, another disaster has also begun to come with the regional climate change.

Natural disaster!

If the extreme cold of ice and snow comes, the trouble is not just as simple as the cold. It means that people need more food to maintain body temperature, and train driving requires more energy.

If extreme low temperatures occur, you may even need to prepare a heating system in your car.

"Fuck..." Lin Xian cursed in his heart at this moment. He was also planning to find a refrigerator to store food. Looking at it like this, it seems that he doesn't need it anymore...
