Armored train in the apocalypse

Chapter 82 I Can't Electrocute You
"boom--"

A loud, irritating sound rang out from outside the car, like the rumbling of an old father's chest as he breathed.

But the impact point was not on either of their heads.

It wasn't even a two-person carriage.

"Boss, what's that?"

"Heavy sniper!" Lu Xiao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and looked at the carriage in front of him with lingering fear.

The other side's posture clearly indicated they were heading for the armed train.

I don't know what's going on. The train was supposed to be fleeing a disaster, so how did it attract such a powerful enemy?

"A sniper rifle? Can it even penetrate steel plates?"

The young man next to him asked curiously.

Lu Xiao gritted his teeth, "You may not know what 12.7 caliber means, but if you modify this gun to fire in bursts, it becomes an anti-aircraft machine gun. If your marksmanship is accurate enough, you could theoretically use it to shoot down airplanes!"

"Don't even mention our 3mm thick iron plate, even the armed train in front of us, with its 15mm thick steel plate, could be pierced by a single shot!"

"Holy crap, that's fierce! Doesn't that mean the train conductor surnamed Su is doomed?"

Lu Xiao glared at him with exasperation. "Idiot! We're all on the same train. If the train derails, where the hell are you going to run?!"

After saying that, she ignored him and crawled towards the front carriage.

……

Inside carriage number 2, Yu Yue stood behind a cabinet with a blank stare in her eyes.

Su Huan stood to her left front, smiling as he raised his right hand. The skin on the outside of his palm was torn open, and blood gushed out.

In the nick of time, she only saw Su Huan reach out and swipe in front of her. The bullet that was supposed to hit her shoulder was deflected by a strange force and shot into the steel plate of the carriage behind her.

"You... I'll bandage you!" Yu Yue hesitated for a moment before decisively saying.

Then I went to look for the first-aid kit that was prepared in the dining car.

"No need to bother."

Su Huan waved his hand, and the wound instantly charred and turned black, stopping the bleeding immediately. The smell of roasted pig's trotters filled the carriage.

From beginning to end, he didn't even frown, as if it weren't his own hand.

He can shape intangible energy into a tangible form, and naturally he can use this energy to interfere with matter.

Just like what happened now.

He conjured an energy barrier and slightly deflected the armor-piercing projectile, which had consumed a large amount of kinetic energy.

If the other party's truth (caliber) hadn't been so crude, he wouldn't have even been hit by the blast wave.

Of course, this doesn't mean he can withstand a heavy sniper head-on.

This is mainly because the other party is too far away from them.

Yu Yue looked at his palm, her long, curved eyebrows furrowing.

"Get down."

Su Huan's tone was clear and crisp.

For the first time, Yu Yue did not obediently follow his orders. She picked up her sniper rifle from the side, quickly opened the window, pulled the bolt, and aimed at the off-road vehicle chasing behind the building.

"Snapped!"

The SUV's visibility disappeared, and it crashed into the walls on both sides.

Yu Yue stubbornly pulled the bolt, the bullet ejected, and her eyes behind the scope narrowed, the upturned corners of her eyes carrying a hint of danger.

Su Huan's expression changed.

The shot finally hit the off-road vehicle, but it was blocked by the vehicle's armor plating.

He wanted to fire again, but Su Huan stopped him, saying, "Be good, lie down first."

Yu Yue then stopped insisting and handed him the sniper rifle.

The third brother also ran over with two other brothers, shouting as he entered, "Commander, it seems we've been attacked!"

Su Huan walked to the window, looking at the SUV that was faintly visible a kilometer away, and said in a clear tone, "That's not just a vague impression. Notify everyone to lie down properly. Tell Xiao Ba to protect Liang Kuan. Don't worry about anything else. Keep accelerating!" The third brother and the others left immediately.

Su Huan's gaze was deep. In his previous life, it was Captain He who opened the armory. He was the leader of a hundred-man convoy of the Steel Council, a Defender, a third-tier "Gun Master". His body had undergone multiple genetic enhancements, making him a formidable figure who could wield two anti-aircraft machine guns and control a cannon with one hand.

His record is outstanding; the most recent example is the "New City Project," where he led his men to wipe out tens of thousands of zombies in the county.

He became the founder of the first city after the end of the Steel Council.

Then, during the migration of zombies from high-temperature zones, he became the executor of "Project Firewall".

If his evolutionary rank hadn't been so low, it would have been impossible for Lin Jin, an ordinary person who only awakened in the New City Project, to surpass him.

But according to his estimation, Captain He should be just like him now, only a first-level "firepower hand".

If the opponent were at level three, no, even level two, they would already be charging up with heavy artillery to blow up his train.

Su Huan narrowed his eyes.

'Let's see if we can find out who wanted to kill me back then by looking at him...'

……

As the armed train receded into the distance, He Jie clenched his fist tightly.

It would be quite a struggle for an off-road vehicle to chase a train through urban terrain.

Throughout the entire ordeal, he only managed to find an opportunity to fire a single shot.

Then came the endless stream of zombies.

Because the response was too hasty, even this elite force was struggling to cope, leading to several dangerous situations.

He Jie said fiercely, "Greyhound, change seats!"

The soldier driving the off-road vehicle immediately released the controls and squeezed into the passenger seat.

In just three or four seconds, the two men switched positions in the cramped driver's cab.

As soon as he sat down, He Jie floored the accelerator.

In his hands, the modified off-road vehicle was like a roaring lion unleashed from its cage, charging wildly through the horde of corpses.

The three SUVs behind him had to speed up to avoid being left behind.

"Hold on tight!"

A ruthless glint flashed across He Jie's face as he charged directly at a car parked on the side of the road.

The SUV, like an Australian kangaroo, leaped directly onto the roof of a nearby building.

The three cars behind were momentarily stunned, then turned around and followed.

"Bang bang bang..."

He Jie's car crashed into more than a dozen old water heaters along the way, finally closing the distance to the armed train. The railway tracks were just below the fourth floor, more than 20 meters away from the train.

One is above and one is below.

The two vehicles achieved a brief period of parallel operation.

At this distance, Su Huan could clearly see the fierce expression on He Jie's face, his eyes simultaneously conveying the message, "Kid, I've got you!"

Su Huan smiled nonchalantly. Captain He was indeed very fierce when he was young.

However, this distance is actually his optimal range for losing.

The moment the soldier in the back seat raised his gun, a series of explosions erupted inside the armed train carriages.

A blue spear flashed wildly, like an elf bound in a hand.

All the metal objects inside the food cart began to tremble.

Su Huan looked out the window and threw the SUV that was jumping off the fourth floor of the building.

The cold blue spear, like a spider web tearing through space, traced a zigzag path through the air before striking the modified off-road vehicle in mid-air.

Then it exploded with a bang!
