Doomsday: I Build an Infinite Train.
Chapter 426 Haiyan Prison
Chapter 426 Haiyan Prison
At 16:12 in the afternoon, the temperature on Haiyan Island dropped sharply, and the sky was somewhat overcast after the storm.
Within the city, monstrous, violent creatures continuously emerged from various sewers and buildings, surging towards Lin Xian and his group.
Gu Zheng's mutated, tall, humanoid form was shattered by Lin Xian's punch using the remnant body of the Xuanwu. The enormous impact created a deafening roar on the ground, sending dust and debris flying everywhere.
The three teams surrounded each other, having all been through a fierce battle. This was not only because the Holy City organization members were quite strong, but also because Monica Ningjing's side had encountered an attack from a mutated crystallized ability user, which was quite troublesome.
On Lin Xian's side, the mutated, tall, humanoid monster's strength was terrifying. Even KIKI and Huo Ge, the two powerful warriors of the Infinite, couldn't suppress it. If Lin Xian hadn't regained his normal consciousness at the crucial moment, this guy would have escaped.
"So, did you get any useful information?" KIKI asked.
Ning Jing shook her head, looked down at the monster that had been blasted into bloody foam, and said solemnly, "I don't know what kind of training these people have undergone, but they can actually activate their mutations on their own. They are even more troublesome to deal with than ordinary ability users!"
"They don't seem like an ordinary survivor organization; they're more like a religious organization," Qian Dele said. "They're really ruthless to their own people."
"Could this be some kind of side effect of crystallization?" Shu Qin asked.
“We caught some unusual activity during our retreat,” Monica, who had initiated the fight, told Lin Xian. “They came from the direction of the orbital station. I felt something was wrong, so I wanted to stop them before it got dark.”
"Where did these guys come from?" Brother Huo said, arms crossed. "They actually approached the west side of the city without a sound."
"The storm just now was most likely caused by them."
Luo Yang, holding a mobile terminal, projected a holographic image of the strange device from before: "This thing is radioactive. I used it to capture the energy fluctuations of the decoy agent Vanessa and the others used. But what I find strange is, if they were going to attack us, shouldn't they have done so after dark...?"
At this moment, KIKI looked at Lin Xian. Lin Xian's complexion had improved somewhat thanks to Shiori's restored powers. He took a deep breath and interrupted the group's discussion.
"Because they can't completely shield themselves from this thing either. Releasing them during the day makes it easier for them to evacuate. Once a chain reaction is formed, it will be difficult to remove the marks on us even by nightfall." Lin Xian looked at the group, who had already been marked with level two marks by the strange entities, and said solemnly, "The Holy City Organization is coming for us, but judging from the situation, their plan has also had some flaws."
"Lin Xian," KIKI asked him, "What did you find?"
Lin Xian caught his breath. This way of using brain-computer interfaces was simply insane. If Chu Yan were here, the problem would be much simpler. Without mental abilities, Lin Xian could only risk using mycelium connections, which was extremely unstable. Moreover, Gu Zheng was on the verge of mutation, and if he was not careful, he would be assimilated by the mutation. Fortunately, Shiori was there to help him.
"Not good."
Lin Xian looked down at the swarming strange entities below and said in a deep voice, "Those strange entities in the surrounding sea were indeed created by them. Now I'm worried that Mount Garan and that forbidden object are also related to the Holy City Organization. We are now trapped on this island, and the situation is very unfavorable."
"You mean, all the anomalies on this island were premeditated and planned to target you?" Monica frowned. "The Phoenix Society shouldn't even know when we set off. How did they know?"
Lin Xian shook his head: "I don't know. This guy kept talking about some kind of master. I suspect they may have had long-term contact with the dark civilization, and my mind has been threatened by the darkness, so I always feel that the big guy just now may have known of my existence."
"You think the Dark Civilization gave the Adventists orders to assassinate you?!" KIKI's face darkened. "But... but why did they have to use a decoy? And why did that Ocean God suddenly run away?"
"No way..."
Lin Xian looked up at the gloomy sky: "I feel that thing is either in the surrounding sea or in the clouds and atmosphere, but for some reason, it suddenly stopped."
"That's troublesome."
Qian Dele took off his mask and couldn't help but spit out, saying, "The orbit around the planet is broken, so we can't travel by air or water. Aren't we going to be trapped here and die?"
"Tired?" Monica replied calmly, "You're worrying too much about the future. The coming night is an unknown for us."
“We’ve discovered quite a few enormous, bizarre flying objects on the east coast. At a rough estimate, they’re at least at the Special Class,” Ning Jing shared with Lin Xian. “And they’re all in groups. If they surround the island, we’ll have a hard time dealing with them.”
"Ah! We saw quite a few too, they're all huge monsters!" Sasha cried out in distress, "Why are they all surrounding us? What on earth did those guys do?!"
"Team Leader Lin," Shu Qin said to Lin Xian.
At this moment, everyone's eyes turned to him.
"There are still secrets on this island." Lin Xian removed his power armor mask, pressed his hand to his brow, and struggled to piece together the chaotic fragments of consciousness he had just experienced.
Gu Zheng's consciousness was filled with endless subjugation of the Adventists and the madness of the collapse of the human worldview. He tried his best to capture something, but could only hear a roar of alienation.
The only useful thing he captured in those clips was an environmental scene that seemed to be in a dimly lit underground tunnel filled with corpses and wastewater.
In a brightly lit hall, hundreds of people stood devoutly in several solemn formations. On a high platform, a blurry figure seemed to be saying something, while those below continuously raised their fists and cheered...
Immediately following were muffled thunderclaps, gunshots, the sounds of deep, suffocating water, and the faces of countless bizarre monsters.
The most profound image Lin Xian captured was in a room filled with many people. At the front was a blue sphere of light, like a hologram or some kind of tangible object, emitting a faint blue glow. Gazing at this blue light, he suddenly received many three-dimensional images: people speaking of a certain stance, a certain philosophy, a certain history...
How to solve poverty and hunger with synthetic food, how to abolish the five senses, gender, and pain sensation, and break down biological reproductive barriers to keep life away from disease, merge consciousness, and advance to a higher life form.
"Without disagreement, without lies, without pain, when life loses its intelligence, and humans become perfect beings without wisdom, pain, or individual differences, Earth will become an 'eternal paradise' without intelligence, where people 'share happiness' by preying on each other and merging ganglia, and those who are too large will multiply and reproduce."
"The evolution of civilization requires the iteration of life and the awakening of consciousness. Only a civilization without social structure or conflict can reach a higher social life form, where all desires can be shared and all suffering can be eliminated..." The decadent voice echoed in Lin Xian's ears like a resounding bell. The information transmitted by the blue light sphere was even more terrifying than the steel imprint of thought. None of the fragments of neuronal consciousness that Lin Xian had captured were as clear as this, to the point that he felt as if he were there and could hear those voices.
What eternal paradise? What fused nerves?
This doesn't sound like the will of the Adventists, but rather like the indoctrination of a will from another civilization...
Wow!
More and more bizarre creatures emerged from the streets below. Some surrounded them, while many others rushed towards the Infinity Ship, seemingly affected by the residual decoy agent released by the Holy City Organization earlier. Shu Qin couldn't help but change color at this sight.
"Damn it, they're starting to converge on the Infinity! There's danger there!"
"Team Leader Lin!"
Lin Xian snapped out of his chaotic fragments of consciousness, his body drenched in cold sweat. He immediately shut out the lewd music and focused on the scene in the underground pipe. He then said to the others, "Qian Dele, Queen Mo, you two quickly lead your teams back to the Infinite and move the train to the underground tracks of Binhai University. Find a location to set up defenses and make sure to remove the markings before nightfall."
"Okay." Qian Dele nodded in agreement.
Monica looked at Lin Xian: "And what about you?"
“There are still quite a few of them on the island. The one who escaped used some kind of forbidden substance, which may be related to what Ryan and the others said about being able to control the Garan volcano. Sister Ning, Xiao Qing, A Bai, and Brother Huo, you guys come with me. I think that place might be in some kind of sewage system. We have to find them out.”
Ning Jing frowned: "Are you worried that they're planning to detonate the Garan volcano?"
Lin Xian shook his head: "It's not that simple, but they must have a hiding place, and if something happens here, how will they leave?"
“Oh, that makes sense. If the people from the Holy City were still on the island, there would still be a chance to stop them.” KIKI realized.
Brother Huo clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Good! These ignorant rats dared to scheme against us. We must burn them all to ashes!"
Seeing the sky gradually darkening and the monsters surging through the streets, Lin Xian knew the situation was becoming dangerous. He immediately ordered Monica and Qian Dele's team to head back. At the same time, they found several of the vehicles that the Holy City organization had used earlier. Sure enough, they found a path navigation system on one of the single-soldier aircraft, which pointed directly to a sea prison on an island in the southeast of Haiyan Island.
"This is it, let's get going!"
Lin Xian felt that the middle-aged man with the forbidden object might be a big problem. Now that it was getting dark, he couldn't just stay in one place and wait for someone to "give him a big gift". So he had to take the initiative. He thought to himself that if this group of people could get away with attracting so many strange entities, it meant that they probably had some way to avoid danger.
"Okay, let's go!"
Lin Xian and Ning Jing led their group directly southeast, increasing their speed to the maximum. Based on the time it got dark yesterday, they only had about an hour left.
Haiyan Prison is not located on the main island of Haiyan. Because it is a tourist city, the prison is built on a small island about 30 nautical miles southeast of Haiyan. In the southeastern sea area of Haiyan Island, a gray-black concrete building stands alone on the island, shaped like a rotting giant beast skeleton. The barbed wire fence surrounding the prison has long been rusted and broken, twisted and hanging down as if torn by some huge force. The entire prison is surrounded by high walls, resembling a huge reinforced concrete fortress.
As soon as Lin Xian, KIKI Ning Jing, and the others got close, they immediately noticed something was wrong.
"How come there are still zombies in this place?"
“They seem to be survivors who have only recently mutated.” Lin Xian stood on the high wall and surveyed the entire prison. He noticed that there were many tents and sheds standing here, and a lot of defensive weapons were deployed on the high wall. The area inside the high wall was like a natural sanctuary, and it was also planted with a lot of greenery. It seemed that the survivors from the original Sea Rock Island had gathered here and built a solid shelter.
However, at this moment, only countless wandering zombies remained in this prison shelter, and the place was deathly silent. Dark red blood was everywhere, as if to tell everyone that the tragic scene here had not been over for long.
Ning Jing said in a deep voice, "It's such a pity. I wonder what they encountered. This place looks like a really good safe zone."
"Be careful, those Holy City Organization people might be here." Lin Xian activated the mechanical scanner: "Look for any entrances to underground fortifications. They can't possibly have so many vehicles parked outside."
"Over there!" Ah Bai pointed directly to a square deep inside the prison, which was separately fenced off with barbed wire, and a row of large gates on one side of the building.
“There were very strong fluctuations in spirit energy there.”
"Let's go." Lin Xian immediately set off, turning back to signal to KIKI Xiaoqing: "You guys protect Abai Shiori."
"Ah."
rub.
Lin Xian and his group descended from the sky, summoning hundreds of Thunder Falcon drones that rapidly fired silent pulse rays, reaping swathes of zombies and clearing the area. They then quickly headed towards the gate.
Lin Xian scanned the area and found that the gate had been reinforced. After swallowing it, the metal prison door inside had already collapsed, revealing a deep, dark passageway. This was a storage area of the prison. Entering the passageway, everything was damp, dark, and reeked of a foul stench. Further down, a large hole had collapsed in the basement used for storing miscellaneous items, and the sound of dripping water echoed in the empty space. Lin Xian operated the drone, turned on the lights, and peered down. He immediately discovered that there was a large pipe below. However, unlike what he had expected, this was not just a sewage pipe. Judging from its size, it seemed more like a pipe used for tsunami flood control.
"There's only one prison on this island, so why would they build such a large flood discharge pipe?" Ning Jing noticed something was amiss and asked.
Shu Qin, who was standing nearby, said, "It's probably some kind of military facility; it looks quite old."
"Lin Xian, should we go down here?" KIKI asked.
Before Lin Xian could speak, suddenly, a series of footsteps came from the pipes below, like leather shoes echoing on the floor, which sounded incredibly eerie in the dilapidated environment.
Just when Lin Xian thought someone was coming out, what appeared in his sight was a pair of strange severed feet!
