Armored train in the apocalypse

Chapter 150 This Calamity

Such a dangerous task could not be left to the third brother alone.

Su Huan granted Jiang Rong and Lu Xiao's team access to ammunition; otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to control the frenzied evolved beasts.

The train occasionally shuddered loudly.

But it's no longer a problem.

Although evolved beasts are physically powerful, they cannot damage railway tracks or use tools. Faced with trains weighing thousands of tons, they can only resort to the most reckless method: ramming them.

Moreover, the fleeing Steel Council is now sharing the firepower.

Su Huan returned to his room and paused at the door.

Pushing open the door, I saw a figure standing there, wearing dark work pants with the pant legs neatly tucked into high-top combat boots, which accentuated his plump thighs. He was wearing a tactical vest with an elastic bandage wrapped around his ribs, holding a thick shoulder pad around his shoulder.

Although her outfit looks neat and tidy, the roundness of her shoulders, collarbone, and earlobes reveals that she is Yu Yue.

The little maid's eyelids were lowered, and her lower lip was bitten until it was bloodless.

Su Huan moved closer, his fingertips stroking the lip that had been bitten, leaving the swollen lips even redder.

He chuckled lightly, "The wishing fairy has arrived?"

Yu Yue raised her wet eyes, the fear inside almost overflowing.

She could hear the faint sounds coming from inside Su Huan's body, like a snow mountain collapsing or a tsunami crashing down.

The originally smooth and harmonious sounds and rhythms were disrupted, with new sounds and changes every moment. She didn't know what those changes represented, but she instinctively felt that Su Huan's condition was definitely not as calm as it appeared.

"Su Huan, your body..."

Just as Su Huan was about to speak, he suddenly felt a tickle on the tip of his nose. He naturally pulled the woman into his arms and lifted her head over his shoulder.

A drop of liquid fell from the tip of her nose.

It clung to Yu Yue's clothes, its crimson color warm.

Su Huan casually covered her with his hand, then pinched the woman's lower back, as if sinking into a soft down comforter.

"Tomorrow morning I want plain congee, salted duck egg, and soy milk. The soy milk should be smooth and without any residue, and sweetened. The plain congee should be unsweetened, and the salted duck egg should be oily. Got it?"

Yu Yue hesitated for a moment, then nodded obediently.

"I'll prepare it for you now, but your health..."

Su Huan smiled and stroked the woman's waist and hips before pushing her out the door.

He closed the door, lowered his head, and rubbed the sticky substance in his hands. A red glow appeared, and the faint fishy smell dissipated.

Time is running out, let's get rid of our old employer first.

Before he could even rest for a while, He Jie knocked on his door.

……

On the outskirts of Changli County, there is a waste recycling station.

Two people crawled out of the garbage heap.

The young collector said with lingering fear, "That's insane! The Steel Council has really messed up. If they had lured out all the advanced zombies in the high-temperature zone, not only the Steel Council, but all the forces that have set up the acid rain zone would have been in trouble. If we can bring this news back, it will have been a great achievement."

The man with the ring whispered, "Forget about all that. Let's get out of here before the battle ends. The zombies don't recognize our identities."

"Not bad, we've already escaped the center of the battlefield. I just observed that there are the fewest zombies to the north."

The two muttered something to each other, quickly erased the traces they left behind, and ran on foot towards the outskirts of Changli County.

They were the collectors on the armed train. They originally planned to hide until the end of the war, but the armed train was stopped by the Steel Council. Relying on their excellent hiding skills, the two took advantage of the chaos to escape all the way to the edge of the area.

I hid in the junkyard just now to avoid a second-tier evolved beast.

The man with the ring suddenly stopped, his brow furrowing. "Wait, this direction won't work, there are zombies. Change!"

The two rushed toward a side road.

"This side won't work either!"

"Change!"

"No, the road is blocked, let's go upstairs!" "Damn it, there's a Night Demon upstairs!"

"Don't show your face, there's a Tier 1 mutated vulture above you!"

"Change!"

"Wait a minute, the vultures have been attracted away."

The man with the ring suddenly spoke.

The two stood on the third floor of the shop, looking out at the dark night sky.

Although there were occasional flapping sounds of wings, they posed little threat to the two first-tier evolved beings.

An armed helicopter took off, its headlights illuminating the surroundings in a white haze. Two anti-aircraft guns roared, shooting down the mutated bird-like creatures that had gathered around.

The person climbed out of the window and started climbing up the decorative strip-like thing on the outside of the wall, cautiously looking back as they went.

Suddenly, the man with the ring felt the glass in front of him light up, reflecting a faint blue light.

My heart skipped a beat.

When I climbed to the top floor and looked back, I saw a helicopter billowing smoke, heading straight for us.

The two looked at each other, speechless with grief.

"That jinx!"

"boom--"

The helicopter crashed into a corner of the building, but also broke its rotor. Like a dragonfly that had lost its wings, it fell straight to the ground, bursting into a large ball of fire.

Crimson eyes watched the direction from which the firelight emanated in the darkness.

In an instant, the roars of the corpses were like thunder.

Looking up, they saw a swaying figure walking towards them, but before it could take more than a few steps, it collapsed to the ground.

The two of them were stunned for a moment. Although they didn't want to get involved, they couldn't resist the urge to watch the show.

They turned the person over and then they saw a young face.

The man with the ring twirled the ring on his hand and exclaimed in surprise, "He's the nephew of Li Wangchuan, the executive director of the Steel Council. The information shows he's a collector, but he hasn't met the advancement requirements yet. Should we do something about it?"

The young collector scratched his head in frustration; if it were a small fry, he would have left immediately.

However, Li Tao's identity is quite sensitive. The collapse of the Steel Council only means that they have lost their competitiveness, not that their resources will disappear into thin air. Deep Blue Data will also be interested in the resources left behind by the Heavy Industry Group. If they can bring this key figure back, the two of them can be promoted at least three levels.

For the time being, I won't have to suffer the hardship of being an undercover agent anymore.

Gritting his teeth, he said, "Give him a sedative and let him carry it away. While the explosion has drawn attention, let's run in the opposite direction as quickly as possible."

"Listen to you!"

After briefly checking Li Tao's injuries and confirming that he wouldn't die, the two quickly withdrew.

However, we can't run northeast anymore, as too many zombies have been attracted there by the helicopter explosion. We can only detour towards the county center.

The two of them, along with Li Tao, were constantly being chased by various zombies and evolved beasts, fleeing in panic.

The ring-wearing man carrying Li Tao jogged along, saying, "Did you hear anything?"

"My abilities are all focused on concealing my presence. My five senses aren't as sharp as yours, which are responsible for gathering information... Wait a minute, are you talking about vibration?"

The young collectors stopped in their tracks.

The man with the ring nodded. "Yes, I felt a vibration under my feet, a tingling, numb sensation. Did you feel it too?"

The young man wore a wry smile.

A railway track had somehow crossed the street ahead, and now the two tracks were trembling slightly, causing the entire ground to rumble and shake.

Two beams of light shone from a very distant direction.

The train's unique whistle pierced through the clouds and into their ears.
