Doomsday: I Build an Infinite Train.

Chapter 321 Resolving the Battle
On the Gobi Desert, the wind and sand gradually intensified, and the distant sky seemed to be dyed a murky rust color.

The old scorpion, who once called himself the 'Desert Emperor', felt like he was about to die. Facing the strangulation formation closing in from four directions, his face twitched fiercely, and with a snap, the megaphone in his hand was crushed to pieces.

Just a short while ago, he had verbally mocked Hu Lushou three times, but unexpectedly, he was now being slapped in the face three times by the other party.

Old Scorpion now understood that the other side had not acted on a whim, but had made thorough arrangements in advance with the aim of annihilating them all.

Hua Gulong's face was ashen as he watched the convoy approaching from several directions, a sense of despair permeating the air.

"Old Scorpion, what do we do? We're probably doomed this time!"

The old scorpion looked at the rolling yellow sand on the distant horizon and suddenly let out a muffled shout.

"We can't fail!"

After saying that, he grabbed the Bone-Melting Dragon, and the yellow sand of the surrounding Gobi Desert flowed rapidly toward him as if it were alive, instantly engulfing the two of them and swimming toward the Sand Serpent's Mouth at an extremely fast speed. The old scorpion was fat and strong, and he could actually manipulate the yellow sand of the desert. His superpower was extremely advanced!

In the air, the Thunder Falcon 2000 drone captured Old Scorpion's movements, and Lin Xian, who was hiding behind the car below, narrowed his eyes slightly.

"So that's the kind of superpower it is."

Although Old Scorpion and the others were already at their wits' end, Lin Xian remained extremely cautious because he knew that these bandit leaders were definitely not ordinary. No one even knew what their superpowers were. Just like that Red Eagle, if it weren't for KIKI's telekinesis, he and the others really wouldn't have had any good way to resist. The wind was also against them, so it seemed that Red Eagle had already used this method to kill many people. He was definitely not an ordinary person.

Therefore, Lin Xian planned to surround them and wait for Qian Dele, Huo Ge, and Monica to arrive before killing them from a distance, trying to minimize casualties among his own people.

After seeing the old scorpion's superpower, Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief. Manipulating sand was truly advanced; no wonder it could run rampant in the Aksai area.

"Do it!"

Lin Xian immediately gave the order. At that moment, the team members and experts such as Liang Lei from the building attacked simultaneously. Lin Xian and KIKI quickly swept across the battlefield and chased after the surging yellow sand.

Whoosh! Dozens of Thunder Falcon drones circled behind Lin Xian and flew rapidly, locking onto the yellow sand and launching a fierce pulse ray attack!

shhhhhh!
Countless red rays of light blasted towards the surging yellow sand, triggering a series of explosions. However, the old scorpion and the bone-melting dragon were hidden under the sand, and even the life detector could not detect their exact location. They were extremely cunning!

"Brother Huo, Xiao Qing, be careful! The enemy leader is approaching your direction!"

zizi.

"I saw it!"

The fewest cars came from the direction of Shashekou. It was Shuqin and Lü Chang who flanked them. At this moment, a fiery meteor flew rapidly across the sky. When Lu Xingchen heard Lin Xian's voice in the communicator, he immediately locked his eyes on a clump of yellow sand moving on the Gobi Desert. Without thinking, he charged down, gathered fire in one hand, and shouted softly!
"Divine Brahma Flame Sword!"

boom!
A cluster of slender jet rockets, like meteors falling to earth, slammed directly into the quicksand. In an instant, a giant fireball erupted, and rolling waves of heat shook the quicksand, completely blasting it apart!

At that moment, a dark shadow suddenly shot out from the sandpit, approaching Brother Huo at an extremely fast speed.

Lu Xingchen hadn't expected anything to jump so high, so he immediately blocked with both hands, and a burst of flames shot out.

Wow!

At this moment, the other team members had already approached. Everyone saw that the flames in front of Lu Xingchen in the air were pushed aside like a wall of fire, and he flew backward. The black shadow that was blocked by the fire spun rapidly, and after losing momentum, it began to fall rapidly to the ground.

Lin Xian, who had just arrived, narrowed his eyes and discovered that it was actually a shrunk ball. The Bone Dragon was wearing power armor and had sharp bone spikes growing all over its body. After landing like a rolling dragon, it spun rapidly and then quickly fled towards an open space.

Looking down at his hands from mid-air, Lu Xingchen saw that the power armor's hand guards were scarred with deep grooves by the rotating bone spikes, a truly astonishing sight.

"That was close. Luckily, Brother Lin reminded me to wear power armor, otherwise my hand would probably be ruined."

After discovering the Bone-Melting Dragon, Lin Xian immediately began to lock onto the location of the Old Scorpion. The Black Hawk Armor's target acquisition system continuously searched. Next to the explosion crater, a sand pile suddenly rushed out towards the direction of the Rust Slope. The convoy that was rushing over there was Monica and Ah Bai.

Lin Xian frowned. He saw a rolling sandstorm coming from the direction of the Sand Snake Mouth in the distance. This old scorpion must be trying to escape from the gap in Shu Qin and Monica's encirclement and rush into the sandstorm!

Having seen through the other party's intentions, Lin Xian was determined not to let him succeed.

"Shuqin, Monica, stop him!"

Shu Qin and Lü Chang also stopped the vehicle, and their power armor started at full power, running across the Gobi Desert like cheetahs, approaching the sand dune.

"I'll go left, you go right!"

Shu Qin held a gun in her left hand and a knife in her right, running almost to the ground. The two separated, and just as they were closing in, Shu Qin suddenly threw her steel knife. At the same time, Lü Chang's spinning electric knife also flew out, blocking the space above and below the sand pile with one horizontal and one vertical strike.

rub!
Sensing danger, the old scorpion beneath the sand dune burst forth, stirring up a cloud of yellow sand. He raised his hand and used his steel armor to block Shu Qin's flying knife. Then, a large amount of yellow sand rose behind him, forming a hard shell that also blocked Lü Chang's flying blade. He then raised his hand and waved several sand spikes like thorny waves surging towards the two of them!

Boom!

Shu Qin immediately fired two shots from her Remington, and then the two of them jumped at the same time to dodge the flying sand spikes.

The sand wall blocked all the steel balls from the shotgun, and then he directly rolled up a sand wall and forcefully crushed it. The yellow sand on the ground seemed to come alive, quickly gathering together and growing two sand hands that grabbed Shu Qin and Lü Chang from the left and right.

"Die!"

Old Scorpion shouted, but the next moment, a laser beam accompanied by a piercing sonic blade arrived in an instant.

The sonic blade severed the two sand hands, while the laser beam struck the sand wall beside the old scorpion, instantly turning the yellow sand into a torrent of magma.

The sudden, terrifying attack made Old Scorpion's eyes turn cold. Without thinking, he immediately raised his hands, causing a large-scale sandstorm to explode!

boom!
Yellow sand billowed up from all sides, creating thick smoke and dust. Then, the old scorpion burrowed back into the sand and headed towards the rusty slope.

On the other side, the bone spur sphere that the Bone Dragon had transformed into rolled across the Gobi Desert at an extremely fast speed, even faster than a car. Meanwhile, Ning Jing and the others turned their car around and chased after the Bone Dragon.

"Xiao Qing!"

Ning Jing said to Xiao Qing in the passenger seat while driving.

Without saying a word, Xiaoqing nimbly crawled out of the car and onto the roof, aiming the jet gun in her left hand directly at the direction of the Bone-Melting Dragon.

With a thud, a thin grappling hook shot out and embedded itself in a huge wind-eroded rock. Immediately, the device on her left hand began to retract rapidly, and Xiao Qing leaped into the air, bursting through the air and approaching the Bone-Melting Dragon at an extremely fast speed. Before landing, Xiao Qing bent her body and pushed off in mid-air, and the leg thrusters of her power armor suddenly fired, allowing her to achieve a second sprint in the air, actually rushing directly in front of the Bone-Melting Dragon.

In the next instant, she raised the blade of her gun and slashed, a sharpness that seemed to cleave the air and even the sandstorm in the air. With a clang, a piece of the bone spikes on the Bone-Melting Dragon's body was sliced ​​off.

"drink!"

The Bone Dragon quickly stretched out its body, spraying out bone spikes from its back like a shower of meteors.

"fire punch!"

boom!
Before the bone spurs even arrived, the raging flames came, and the roaring fire wave swept away all the bone spurs. Lu Xingchen flew over, flames flying all over his body, and said sternly, "Villain, don't run away!"

Xiao Qing's pupils reflected the crimson flames. She then looked up at Lu Xingchen, fired another grappling hook, and charged through the wave of flames, heading straight for the fleeing Bone-Melting Dragon with extreme ferocity.

Lu Xingchen was slightly taken aback when he didn't expect this girl to be even more eager to steal the spotlight than he was. The next moment, he chuckled and sped up, gathering a ball of fire in his right hand and smashing it down on the Bone-Melting Dragon!
"Godly Flameburst Star!"

boom!
A massive explosion of fire erupted in front of the fleeing Bone-Melting Dragon, sending him flying into the air. At that moment, a black-clad figure swiftly arrived, holding the sword in reverse, and then slashed it down.

"Swimming and swirling!"

Xiaoqing then whispered the name of a move.

This was her own thought, and she said it very softly.

But Lu Xingchen, with his sharp ears, still heard it.

"Ok?"

rub!
A sharp blade cleaved down, actually slicing through the bone spikes on the Bone Dragon's body along with its power armor, and Xiao Qing cut off its entire left arm.

"Ah!!" The Bone-Melting Dragon screamed and crashed to the ground.

"Swinging and swirling, what a good name."

Lu Xingchen landed on the ground, looked at Xiao Qing, and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Xiaoqing glanced at him with a dark expression, her eyes immediately darting away, as if she didn't want anyone to hear her line.

But every time Xiaoqing quietly shouted it out, she felt pretty cool.

At this moment, the Bone-Melting Dragon just wanted to cry and curse. What kind of monsters were these people? How could there be so many powerful superhumans? As the bandit leader, he didn't even have a chance to fight back. The fire-breathing god was one thing, but the alloy power armor could be cut in half by a knife. Was he still on Earth? Where did he come from? Have gene-evolved humans evolved to this extent?

Sensing impending death, the Bone-Melting Dragon only wanted to run away. When he saw that Lu Xingchen and the other person didn't finish him off immediately but started talking, he realized that his chance had come. So he immediately prepared to roll into a ball again and run away. As long as he got into the sandstorm, he would be spared.

Just as he was about to roll it up, a woman suddenly flew over and landed beside him, lifting the Bone-Melting Dragon up in one hand and raising her other hand to gather strength!

boom!
Immediately, a punch slammed into his power armor. In an instant, Bone Dragon felt as if he had been hit head-on by a hundred-ton truck. His power armor shattered into pieces, along with his internal organs.

"Pfft...fuck your mother."

Bone-Melting Dragon spat out mouthfuls of blood and foam, looking unwillingly at the beautiful woman in front of him.

"If I catch you... I'll fuck you to death!"

The Bone-Melting Dragon didn't know what to say in its last words, so it blurted out this sentence on a whim.

Ning Jing frowned coldly, threw him to the ground, and stomped on the Bone-Melting Dragon's head, crushing it. "What were you two talking about?"

After dealing with the Bone-Melting Dragon, Ning Jing looked at Lu Xingchen and Xiao Qing.

"Quick, there's another one over there."

Looking at the corpse of the Bone-Melting Dragon on the ground, Lu Xingchen felt a pang of regret, thinking to himself that he hadn't been ruthless enough; he should have burned the enemy to ashes before he could feel at ease.

On Old Scorpion's side, Lin Xian and KIKI, who arrived quickly, saw that Ah Bai's laser beam had not injured Old Scorpion in time, and their eyes immediately darkened.

A sandstorm was approaching, visibility was gradually decreasing, and the wind began to howl. At first, it only stirred up a few grains of sand, which lashed against the exposed rock walls with a soft crackling sound. Then, a denser sandstorm came rushing towards us.

Monica, clad in a magenta power armor, flew across the horizon, unleashing two invisible sonic blades that sliced ​​the Gobi Desert into long, thin cuts. The old scorpion swirled through the sand, constantly dodging and weaving.

At this moment, Lin Xian mounted several drones and rushed forward. The observation and aiming system was aimed at the yellow sand below, and 20 Thunder Falcon drones were launched at the same time!

boom!
The red pulse rays converged and instantly detonated the sand dune, blasting the fat old scorpion out of the sand and sending it tumbling to the ground.

“KIKI”

KIKI immediately prepared to use her telekinesis to grab him, while Lin Xian raised his hand to prepare to use the mechanical energy cannon.

Unexpectedly, the old scorpion burst out from the sand pile and then suddenly threw a disc-shaped device towards Shu Qin and Lü Chang. The device emitted a strange vibration and shook continuously on the ground.

Upon seeing the device, Lin Xian instinctively shouted to Shu Qin, "Back off!"

Shu Qin and Lü Chang also realized something was wrong and hurriedly retreated. However, the ground was shaking and swaying like quicksand. Just as KIKI was about to make a move, she quickly used her telekinesis to grab Shu Qin and Lü Chang and lift them into the air.

boom!
In the next instant, several strange tentacles burst open from beneath the ground and shot straight up, grabbing at Shu Qin and Lü Chang.

"careful!"

Rub rub rub.

The thrusters of Shu Qin and Lü Chang's power armor activated instantly, and with the help of KIKI's superpower, they exploded and accelerated in the air, leaping dozens of meters into the air and barely dodging the attack of the tentacles.

Noisy!
At that moment, a laser beam swept across, severing the entire row of tentacles. Ah Bai arrived in response.

After the tentacle was severed, the ground of the Gobi Desert began to tremble violently, and the sand and gravel on the ground began to boil, as if some ferocious creature was angry.

"careful!"

After rescuing Shuqin, KIKI immediately spoke to Lin Xian.

"Everyone back off!" Lin Xian was secretly shocked. He didn't expect that the old scorpion had such methods. He immediately scanned the resonance device and swallowed it from a distance. Then he raised his hand and pointed. He saw a strange entity surging in the sand. His thoughts changed.

Fearing that he would attract the Dark Mark, he suddenly switched from using the Mech Cannon to the Gravity Lens, intending to kill the monster and the old scorpion that were about to emerge from the sand!
"Want to hide?"

hum!
Above the sky, a distorted space suddenly appeared, rapidly gathering the sunlight that was about to be obscured by the sandstorm, and then sweeping it directly towards the fleeing sand dunes!

Gravitational solar rays!

Swish!
A scorching ray as thick as a bucket swept across the sand dune, leaving a dark red, burning crater in the ground. The underground monsters that had not yet emerged seemed to be stunned by the intense light, and the turmoil on the ground abruptly disappeared. The sand dune into which the old scorpion had burrowed was also directly sheared open!

"what!!"

Old Scorpion let out a miserable scream as the yellow sand around him ripped apart, and his obese body rolled out like a potato. At this moment, his legs and lower body were burned and vaporized, leaving only his huge upper body and fat belly rolling on the sand.

"Don't kill me! I have important information that can save my life!"

With his last means of survival failing, the old scorpion, sensing his impending death, quickly began to beg for mercy.

bang bang bang!
At this moment, the strange tentacles that had emerged from the ground emitted a violent tremor, then quickly retracted underground and disappeared.

"Important intelligence? Speak."

Amidst the sandstorm, Lin Xian sensed the strange entity vanish and said in a deep voice.

Old Scorpion shouted urgently, "I know a top-secret piece of information about the Federation. There's a huge treasure in the no-man's land..."

As he spoke, he quietly pressed a mechanism in one of his finger bones, which was connected to a highly toxic explosive device inside his abdomen!
As the old scorpion watched the figures approach him, he heard a faint countdown in his stomach and a sly smile crept across his face.

Even if I die, I'll take all of you with me!
Listening to the countdown to his own death, Old Scorpion was filled with rage. After the apocalypse, he was living a life of unbridled freedom in the western Gobi Desert, killing and robbing at will. He used to be just a social scumbag who gambled away his wife and daughters, living a muddled and unproductive life. But now, with the end of the world, he had become the emperor of the desert.

He founded the Sand Scorpion Gang, robbing when there was no food and seizing when there were no weapons. He was timid in the dark, but he attacked the fleeing survivors with heavy blows. In a short time, his strength continued to expand. His stronghold housed more than a dozen beautiful women of all kinds, and he lived a very happy life.

The thought that such days would be over filled him with hatred, hatred for these troublemakers!

"Treasure? What treasure?" KIKI asked in surprise.

"Come here, I'll tell you." Old Scorpion grinned maniacally as he watched the group approach, his smile growing ever wider.

Finally, he stopped hiding and burst into wild laughter.

"Hahahaha, treasure, you're all going to be my burial victims!!! Die, all of you!"

The old scorpion spread his arms wide and shouted arrogantly with a manic expression!
But as the countdown stopped, nothing happened—no explosion, no deaths.

Just then, a cheerful bell rang out from inside the old scorpion's belly.

"What's your father's name?"

"My father's father is called Grandpa."

"..."

As the sandstorm swept by, Lin Xian slowly appeared in Old Scorpion's line of sight. Old Scorpion tried to move, but was suppressed by an invisible force of thought. At this moment, he heard a strange song coming from his stomach, and the maniacal smile on his face froze instantly. He was completely confused about the change in the situation.

Where's the bomb? Where's the detonator?
"What are you waiting for, for the bomb to explode?"

Lin Xian walked out, put down his armor and mask, and looked at Old Scorpion with an indifferent expression. The mechanical devices on the other party's body were like nakedness in front of him.

Just before the other party activated it, the explosive device in the old scorpion's stomach was directly swallowed by Lin Xian, giving him a new alarm clock.

Old Scorpion's pupils dilated as he looked at Lin Xian's cold face, feeling a deep sense of fear.

It's a fear where you can't even choose how you die.

"No, no!!!" Old Scorpion stammered incoherently, "I...I...I really have a secret..."

call out!
Twenty Thunder Falcon drones simultaneously fired pulse beams, and before Old Scorpion could finish speaking, he was riddled with holes by the dense pulse beams.

Lin Xian clenched his fist and scanned and absorbed the dark golden Iron Alliance Token from the old scorpion's heart. He then created a new one, made a detonating device, put the Iron Alliance Token inside, and threw it aside.

This is just a casual thing to do. Whether or not other members of the Iron Alliance come, it can be considered a small surprise. Whoever picks it up is doomed.

"This guy is full of evil intentions, and he still wants to harm people even on his deathbed!" KIKI used her telekinesis to grab and throw the old scorpion's corpse out. Monica, who was walking over from the side, whistled, and the fat and ugly corpse instantly exploded into a bloody mist.

"He can actually summon strange entities?" Shu Qin walked over with a look of surprise on her face.

"It shouldn't be a summoning."

Lin Xian looked at the sandstorm and said, "Hu Lushou once said that strange things can appear in sandstorms. This guy used a device that looks like a fishing bait."

Looking at the blueprint of the device in the Heart of the Machine, Lin Xian's expression turned serious. This was definitely not something that the Sand Bandits could have made. Like the Iron Alliance Token, this disc device was intricately designed and required extremely strong industrial manufacturing capabilities to produce!
“Then we suggest we retreat back to the convoy and avoid their onslaught,” Monica said, unable to contain her excitement as the sandstorm, like a dark cloud, was about to sweep in.

"Let's go, it's all taken care of. Let's go back to Aksai first, and then we'll take stock of the supplies lost after the sandstorm passes."

Everyone nodded, and immediately the four groups of people turned around and headed towards Aksai.

The joint train had already entered Aksai station, its more than ten-kilometer-long carriage stretching across the wide Gobi Desert. Inside the city, Hu Lushou, Chen Sixuan, Lu Zhao, and others had finished clearing out the sand bandits. After receiving a notification from Lin Xian and others, they immediately summoned all the survivors back to their vehicles to avoid the sandstorm.

"Captain Lin! There might be strange creatures in the sandstorm, we must remain silent!"

Hu Lushou used a communicator to tell Lin Xian to be careful, and then he and Sun Chang quickly hid back in the nuclear-bombed basement of the Black Rose Bar.

"Attention everyone, do not make any vibration noise after entering the vehicle."

Lin Xian had scanned the disc device and knew that it would emit a peculiar vibration. Although he didn't know exactly what it was, he at least knew that the vibration might cause problems.

Soon, all the members of the joint train, including the Infinite, returned to the train, closed the doors and locked the windows. For safety reasons, Lin Xian arranged for all the train crews to turn off all electrical equipment, including water purifiers and air conditioning systems, to keep the trains absolutely quiet.

He went to the cockpit and looked through the porthole; the sky to the northeast seemed to have cracked open.

A sand wall over a thousand meters high swept in at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour. The sand cloud at the top surged like a tsunami. At the base of the sand wall, the rubble and various waste oil drums were roaring. The wind was no longer flowing air, but solidified sandpaper. The sound of sand grains rubbing against the rock wall gradually changed from a low-frequency hum to a whistling sound like blades, interspersed with cries that were hard to tell whether they were real or hallucinations.

Suddenly, the sandstorm, like a dark night, swept across the entire Gobi Desert.

At this moment, on a rocky outcrop in a distant canyon, a group of young men wearing sand masks stood there, their eyes fixed on the direction of the joint convoy. Then, one of them pressed a recorder to start recording a log, and a muffled sound came from under his mask.

"Time, D-99, Aksai region of the Western Gobi Desert, an unknown forbidden object has been discovered, tentatively designated 0051. The host is a fire-type ability user..."
