Doomsday: I Build an Infinite Train.

Chapter 427 Vanishing into the Darkness (Seeking monthly votes at the end of the month~)

boom!
With a violent crash, a black heavy train burst out of the collapsed Haiyan West rail station. At the same time, three 1130 and three G3 electromagnetic railguns with shields on their roofs opened fire, crushing and blasting away the strange creatures like the Red Bone that surrounded them from all sides. Then, it sped into the city rails and headed towards the city center with ferocious speed.

Derailed from the main track, the Infinite resumed its rail transport drive, with the thousands of tons of train rolling on the tracks, sparks flying from the iron wheels, and the steel humming. High in the sky, Sasa piloted the Flying Peach, bombing her way through, with flames rising and smoke billowing along the tracks.

The blast door of carriage number 5 opened, and Da Lou, Lü Chang, Shu Qin, and Luo Yang, dressed in power armor and armed with weapons, unleashed their full firepower at the strange creatures chasing along both sides of the railway. Ryunosuke even flew above the carriage roof, manipulating powerful psychic waves to suppress all the monsters blocking the train's progress.

17:23
"With less than 50 minutes left, our current markings are persistent and cannot be completely removed."

Inside the cockpit, Chen Sixuan observed the battle situation outside the porthole and solemnly spoke into the communicator: "Before we enter the underground, we need to conduct a thorough cleanup!"

"By the way, can we use Silver Dragon 100,000?" Qian Dele's voice came.

No sooner had she finished speaking than Ding Junyi, who was working in carriage number 3, responded directly: "No, the new flower buds haven't formed yet."

"What should we do? These monsters... although there aren't many, they seem endless." Sasha, piloting a mecha bomber, said nervously as she watched the strange figures appearing in the streets and buildings all around her.

"We can use the methods we used before in the snowfield."

Chen Sixuan said on the frequency at this time: "I took a look and there is an interchange platform for freight and subway branches before entering University City Station. We can stop there and then find the right opportunity to solve it all at once."

call out.

At the rear of the vehicle, Monica sat in command, her whistling swords repelling several monsters. The monsters' green bio-fields flickered incessantly, failing to penetrate even when fired from the railgun; multiple concentrated attacks were needed to eliminate them. At this moment, Monica spoke...

"These are not snow demons; if there are too many of them, we are not confident that we can eliminate them in a short time."

"Yeah, these guys' defenses are insane. They can actually withstand heavy machine gun fire..." Lu Chang said in disbelief.

Shu Qin and Da Lou joined forces to focus fire on a split-tailed monster. With a bang, a high-explosive bomb blasted it into the air. The defensive force field on its body flickered. She seized the opportunity and hit it with a pulse cannon, instantly blasting the monster's upper body to pieces. Its flesh was splattered on the buildings by the roadside.

“Their bio-force fields have limits; continuous attacks will overload them. Alternatively, attacks with an energy density higher than the force field can break them.” Shu Qin immediately said to Xiao Yuan and Miao Lu, who were operating the train's weapon station in carriage number 2, “Adjust the attack method, let the onboard weapons concentrate fire to annihilate them, and then switch targets!”

"Okay!" Xiao Yuan immediately made the adjustments, and Miao Lu, who was standing next to her, also helped with the arrangements. At this moment, she said, "Why hasn't Viola returned yet? The signal chain has been completely cut off."

"Team Leader Lin sent Viola to scout along the track chain. Judging from the looks of it, she won't be back before dark," Xiaoyuan said.

Swish!
Just as Shu Qin and Da Lou were taking down a Rifttail Man, a figure flew past at high speed. Sun Yuzhen was wearing a set of flight armor specially made by Lin Xian, which included wings and a missile launch system. She landed directly on the wall, and six spider-like mechanical arms extended from her back and stuck to the wall. Then she took out a special container, collected a clump of flesh and blood, and flew away again before the monsters could pounce on her.

"What is this?!"

In carriage number 7, Qian Dele opened the door and kicked a red bone flying. Seeing Sun Yuzhen fly back, he immediately asked curiously.

"Director Ding wants it; he says he wants to study this bio-force field." After saying that, Sun Yuzhen immediately retracted her wings and ran quickly towards carriage number 3.

Qian Dele shrugged: "Okay, it would be best if all our trains could have such a defensive force field. It's even more powerful than steel armor."

“There are at least forty or fifty of these daytime anomalies with bio-fields outside now. At this rate of increase, if we stop, we'll only have two minutes at most to make a move.” Sasha flew in the air, using the mecha's computer to perform data calculations, and said at the same time, “Moreover, the number seems to be increasing in our direction. Maybe... we won't even have two minutes.”

"One minute is enough!"

Bang!
A dazzling sniper beam exploded, the cockpit door of the Infinite opened, and Chen Sixuan, wielding the Night Hunter which was taller than herself, fired a plasma confinement cannon, instantly piercing through a Rifttail Man and a Redbone, blasting a gruesome bloody hole the size of a washbasin into their bodies. *Whoosh!* Chen Sixuan's expression was cold as she pressed the energy rewind button on the Night Hunter, then spoke into her headset...

"Ryunosuke".

"Please give your orders!" Ryunosuke's voice was hoarse but respectful.

"Once we arrive at the loading station, there's a warehouse area to the north. I need you to use your abilities to gather all the monsters within your field of vision into one area, preferably within a 10-meter radius. Can you do that?"

Ryunosuke pondered for a second upon hearing this, then immediately replied, "If it's just about holding them together, that's fine."

"it is good."

Chen Sixuan continued, "Everyone, please gather on the right side of the train. After Ryunosuke takes control, we'll all focus our fire. Sasha, Madoka, Flying Peach, and Mugen, please prepare your firepower deployment. We need to launch a concentrated bombardment of a full complement of firepower."

"Then it's Luo Yang and Monica's turn. You guys use your abilities to finish things off, and the rest of you can provide additional firepower."

"it is good!"

"That sounds like a good idea."

"Okay, Captain Chen."

"Also," Chen Sixuan said to Xiaoyuan, "Prepare to deploy a Storm Eye F12 supersonic air-to-ship missile. Also, mount the Hyperion directional restraint cannon that Lin Xian prepared online. If the problem isn't resolved within one minute, use this super weapon."

Xiao Yuan immediately replied, "Understood."

"Wow, I forgot about the space-based weapon that Brother Lin prepared~" Sasha's eyes lit up when she heard this: "With this, we can definitely kill these guys instantly."

"Not bad, multiple layers of protection." Qian Dele replied with a sigh of relief, "There shouldn't be any problems now."

Upon hearing this, Monica's voice came through the communication channel: "Let's try to handle it using our own methods. It's only a level two marker right now. It would be a waste to use the Hyperion Directional Restraint Cannon on all these monsters."

“Yes, this thing can pose a threat even to S-rank enemies, so we should use it with caution,” Shu Qin agreed.

Chen Sixuan immediately responded, "I know, so it's a backup plan. We're almost at the loading station. Everyone, stay alert and make sure to crush them in one fell swoop and wipe out the Dark Markers!"

"it is good!"

Everyone responded in unison.

The heavy train roared along the main track, its steel trembling. The new outer armor of the Infinite had already been covered with the viscous blood of the strange creatures. The 1130 close-in weapon system and electromagnetic railgun on the roof fired alternately, the scorching barrage tearing through the air, focusing fire to eliminate the approaching Redbone and Split-Tailed Men, but the frequency had been reduced.

Inside the vehicle, Miao Lu had already deployed the PX-05 robots for a new round of loading. The PX-05 robots lined up, their robotic arms precisely delivering 1130mm shells to the gun positions. The metallic clanging of the ammunition boxes mingled with the hissing of steam depressurization, preparing for the next barrage of fire. The number of these monsters that roamed during the day was greater than expected; their bio-fields flickered in the gunfire like phosphorescent flames of demons. Just as the firepower exploded, Chen Sixuan began to slow the train. At the end of the rusted tracks ahead, an abandoned freight loading station stood like the skeleton of a giant beast in the setting sun.

"The marker remains at level 2," Ding Junyi's calm voice came through.

The scene of the freight station flashed past the porthole: rotting containers piled up under the collapsed canopy, and rusted gantry cranes stuck diagonally in the ground like broken spines. In the setting sun, the platform was covered with dried bloodstains, scattered corpses, and all kinds of garbage.

"They're all converging from the north and south!" Sasha's "Flying Peach" bomber swept over the platform, its wing shadows brushing against the peeling "No Smoking" signs on the walls.

The train came to a sudden stop, the steel hinges groaning shrilly.

"Ryunosuke!" Chen Sixuan seized the opportunity and immediately gave the order.

"Yes, sir." As the voice rang out, Ryunosuke leaped from the roof of the vehicle. He raised his hand and grabbed in mid-air, directly tearing open a clearing from the center of a collapsed warehouse in the loading station. Metal components and beams were scattered everywhere. Then he turned around and focused his gaze on each monster that was closing in on the Infinity. With a precise grab, he captured them all in mid-air and threw them directly towards the center of the warehouse.

With a buzzing sound, the bio-fields of those strange beings flickered, and psychic waves exploded from them. The air seemed to be stirred by an invisible giant hand. Ryunosuke did not waste any time and began to concentrate these monsters like throwing sandbags.

"Everyone, open fire!"

At this moment, the gun turrets of the multiple weapon stations on the Infinite had already turned around, and the crew, who were already prepared, opened fire simultaneously.

beep!!

Three 1130mm bullets poured down instantly, the bullet belts weaving a crimson waterfall. The blue light of the electromagnetic cannon pierced through the monster horde. The metal storm of tens of thousands of tungsten armor-piercing rounds and the light of the electromagnetic railgun shone simultaneously. In the sky, Sasha, piloting a mecha bomber, had already fired a blue beam of the Star Cannon and two high-explosive cannons as she swooped down!

"Fire at full power!"

Boom! On the Infinite carriage, a black missile exploded and soared into the sky, leaving a bright trail of fire across the horizon. The Storm Eye F12 missile, trailing a fiery tail, swooped down, and the shockwave hurled container debris thirty meters into the air.

At the same time, Luo Yang's shockwave, Monica's sonic sword, and the firepower of Da Lou, Chen Sixuan, Shu Qin, and Lü Chang were also unleashed at full force!

At that moment, the loading platform on the right side of the Mugen was instantly transformed into a sea of ​​fire. The strange creatures that Ryunosuke had thrown over seemed to have been thrown into a meat grinder. The powerful bio-force fields that had just flashed were immediately shattered into pieces by the violent firepower. With the exquisite coordination of the experts on the Mugen, these monsters had no time to resist and were blasted into pieces.

“Level 1 mark!” Inside carriage number 3, Ding Junyi was simultaneously monitoring the Spirit Value Detector and the Hell Chrysanthemum. She released her affinity to make the Hell Chrysanthemum continuously absorb the black smoke from the dead outside the carriage, and then stared intently at the red light on the petals.

"almost!"

As Chen Sixuan fired the Dark Hunter, she kept a close eye on Ding Junyi's feedback. The instant the Dark Mark value returned to zero on the terminal screen, she immediately pushed the lever.

"Full speed ahead! Ryunosuke, give us a push! Qian Dele, decoy! Luo Yang, have your mech scout ahead! Prepare to enter the underground rails!"

"it is good!"

"understand!"

Under Chen Sixuan's command, Ryunosuke descended directly from the sky, raised his hand and used his control to grab the entire body of the Mugen, and then pushed it forward with a sudden jerk!
boom!
In an instant, everyone on board felt a tremendous surge of power as the heavy train, weighing thousands of tons, suddenly shot forward hundreds of meters along the main track, sparks flying from its wheels, and the roar of its engine propelled it to its maximum speed.

At the same time, Qian Dele took out a makeshift device that Lin Xian had temporarily made to scan Gaddy's decoy agent, used his speed force to jump off the Infinity, and detonated it after traveling several streets. This attracted the strange entities that had come under their dark mark to another direction, completely clearing their escape route.

Soon, under the setting sun, a descending track appeared ahead of the main line, which was the passage to the city's subway. At this moment, Luo Yang, inside the holographic mask, controlled the mecha and flying drones to launch them using the jet system. Several robots and dozens of drones were the first to rush into the darkness.

"Going underground again, this is going to be a bad experience." Qian Dele, who had sped back into the car, looked at the dark tunnel ahead. Because of the power outage, there were no lights in the tunnel, making it look like a pitch-black abyss. They had faced the collapse of an underground tunnel when they escaped from Yijin City in the middle of the night. The train being below gave him a contradictory feeling of both safety and danger. However, thinking of the giant ocean god he had seen during the day, Qian Dele felt that hiding underground wasn't so bad after all...

Wow~
The moment the Mugen plunged into the tunnel, darkness enveloped it like asphalt. The headlights illuminated the dried black bloodstains on the tunnel walls. The tunnel was filled with the bodies of various dead zombies, their bones cracking under the iron wheels. Clearly, no 'creatures' had entered this place for a long time.

The damp, putrid smell mixed with the stench of blood filled the ventilation system. Xiaoyuan gagged as she shut off the rooftop weapon station, returning the Mugen to its sealed state.

"It smells awful..." Miao Lu frowned.

"Quickly check the airtightness," Xiaoyuan said nervously.
The Infinite has the modification level to be an underwater sealed cabin, but the weapon station must be retracted to be completely sealed. At this moment, Miao Lu pressed the internal air purification circulation button, and the two finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Monica entered the cockpit and, together with Chen Sixuan, looked through the porthole into the deep tunnel. Thick, sticky droplets hung from the tunnel ceiling, as if they had been moldy for a long time. Because it was an island, the air here was very humid, and the tunnel was filled with a sticky, smelly atmosphere. "Those things are hiding underground, and we could very well crash into them."

“If there are only one or two, we have to deal with them immediately. As long as we don’t mark them before dark, we’re safe here.” Chen Sixuan looked at the driving map and said, “The maintenance section of that civil defense fortification is just ahead. Monica, now it’s all up to you and Luo Yang’s perception ability underground. Deal with any movement immediately.”

"Don't worry." Monica looked at Chen Sixuan meaningfully, then smiled slightly: "You're getting more and more capable."

Chen Sixuan did not respond directly upon hearing this.

Not long after, the train slowly glided into a maintenance section that was leaving the main tunnel. The rusty maintenance platform was piled with moldy explosion-proof boxes. After the train stopped, Lü Chang and Da Lou immediately jumped off the train and splashed deodorizer on both sides of the track all the way to the entrance of the maintenance section. The pungent chemical smell temporarily suppressed the stench.

Luo Yang and Sasha immediately began deploying defensive devices at the entrance, while simultaneously arranging patrol drones to venture deeper into the darkness.

Some covert signal drones were deployed outside the university station in the form of data links to contact Lin Xian and Viola. At this moment, Chen Sixuan quickly came to carriage number three and asked Ding Junyi.

"How about it?"

Ding Junyi's eyes gleamed with a green light, and the affinity of her plant-based supernatural power returned from the regional black chrysanthemum. She then said to Chen Sixuan, "It's cleared. The black chrysanthemum didn't sense any other threats either. We should now enter a period of silence."

Drop drop drop.

At that moment, the night alarm sounded inside the carriage.

Chen Sixuan took a deep breath and turned to look at all the carriages: "Close the doors and turn off the lights!"

bang~
In an instant, the headlights on the Mugen train went out, white smoke billowed from the pressure relief valves under the wheels, and as the engine shut off, the heavy train disappeared perfectly into the darkness.

Outside the maintenance section, deep within both ends of the underground main track, eerie sounds emanated, sometimes near, sometimes far, and the cold rails trembled intermittently.

On the ground, the signal base station deployed by Luo Yang flickered a faint green signal light amidst the ruins.

18:12
A flash of light streaked across the sky, and darkness descended!
