Death Train: SSS-level talent right from the start!

Something's coming.

After Chen Ye finished speaking, he led his team back to the station platform.

The passengers in the station gathered together, no one spoke, all eyes were focused on the end of the exit.

This was their first time participating in a three-star difficulty trial, and no one knew the strength of the mechanical monsters here.

"boom--"

A dull thud came from outside the exit, and the ground trembled slightly.

Then, a huge wheel rolled in from the light outside the station entrance.

The tire is nearly two meters in diameter, with a rough anti-skid pattern on the tread. Above the tire is a metal body about five meters tall.

The body was a dark gray, like the surface of steel that had been eroded by wind and sand for a long time.

Its upper body leans forward, like a hunched-over person, but it has no legs, and its entire lower body is integrated with the huge tire.

Two robotic arms are held horizontally at the sides of the body.

At the end of the left robotic arm is a circular electric saw with a blade about 1.5 meters in diameter. The saw teeth are dense and sharp, and it emits a piercing whistling sound when it is in operation.

At the end of the right robotic arm is a longer cutting saw with a curved blade, resembling a hacksaw magnified dozens of times.

Its head is integrated with its body, it has no neck, and its face has only one electronic eye that flashes a dark red light.

The electronic eye was scanning back and forth at a regular frequency, from one end of the station to the other, like a machine performing a search program.

Intruder detected! Eliminate them immediately!

The synthesized electronic sound exploded again.

Then the huge tire suddenly accelerated and spun, screeching violently against the platform floor.

The massive mechanical body charged straight toward the crowd in the station at a speed completely disproportionate to its size, covering more than ten meters in less than two seconds.

Both robotic arms were raised simultaneously, and the chainsaw teeth on the robotic arms rotated at high speed.

Lu Qingchuan stepped out from the crowd, and a giant axe appeared in his palm as he flipped his right hand.

The axe is broad like a fan, with double-edged blades, and a steady, light blue sheen flows across the blades.

He stepped forward to meet the charging mechanical giant.

When the two were less than three meters apart, he suddenly pushed off the ground with his right leg, leaping high into the air. The instant his body was level with the five-meter-tall mechanical head, he gripped the giant axe in his right hand and swung it twice in mid-air.

The axe blade traced two intersecting blue trails in the air, precisely cutting into the joints of the mechanical monster's two mechanical arms.

"laugh--!"

"laugh--!"

Two almost overlapping metallic cutting sounds exploded on the platform.

The robotic arm with the circular saw attached to the left was severed at the shoulder joint. The circular saw, along with half of the arm, slammed heavily to the ground. The saw blade was still spinning due to inertia, making a screeching metallic scraping sound as it scraped across the ground.

The robotic arm on the right, which was equipped with a long saw, also broke off at the same joint. The entire arm, along with the long saw, detached from the body and crashed to the ground with a dull thud.

In an instant, the mechanical monster lost the weapons on both sides, leaving only its bare torso and the still-glowing electronic eye, while maintaining its forward-charging posture.

Lu Qingchuan's body did not pause in mid-air for a moment, and the giant axe followed closely behind with a downward slash.

The axe blade, enveloped in a pale blue aura, cleaved down from above, striking the center of the mechanical monster's head.

"boom--!"

The axe blade cut in from the center, splitting the entire mechanical torso in two from top to belly.

The steel shell was torn apart, and the gears, bearings, and broken cables inside burst out from the cracks and scattered all over the ground. Tiny arcs of electricity were still crackling and flickering at the break in the cracks.

The mechanical monster's two halves split apart and slammed heavily onto the ground with two dull thuds.

The dark red electronic eye was still flashing, and mechanical voices emanated intermittently from the wreckage.

"Intruder detected... Immediately... eliminate..."

The sound grew weaker and weaker, becoming increasingly intermittent, and finally fell completely silent after several seconds.

The platform was quiet, with only the pile of metal debris on the ground still faintly emitting arcs of electricity remaining.

Wang Zekai was the first to come up.

He strode over to the pile of wreckage, kicked the circular saw that had fallen to the ground with his toe, and then looked at the two halves of the broken mechanical body on the ground.

"That's it?" He withdrew his foot, his tone carrying a hint of disdain. "I made it look so scary, I thought it was some kind of big thing, but it's not that tough."

Shen Nanxing and Gulina also came up from behind and stood beside Lu Qingchuan.

Gulina squatted down, touched the arc of electricity at the broken point with her fingertip, then withdrew her hand and shook it.

Lu Qingchuan put the giant axe back into his storage space, then turned around and looked behind him. His gaze fell on Chen Ye not far away, and then he walked over.

Chen Ye stood still, watching Lu Qingchuan walk up to him.

The two people stopped about two meters apart.

The two are of similar height, one with a buzz cut and a rugged look, the other with calm and composed features, creating a strange sense of symmetry when they stand together.

"First, each of us should go and obtain a survival mark. Once everyone in the team has a mark, we will meet up with the other two teams. The other train in this training ground is numbered earlier than ours and may have passengers who are level 20 or higher."

Lu Qingchuan's voice was steady, and his expression was serious.

Chen Ye's gaze lingered on his face for a moment: "No problem."

Lu Qingchuan nodded, said nothing more, and turned to walk towards the exit.

Wang Zekai, Shen Nanxing, and Gulina followed behind him. The four of them quickly passed through the exit and disappeared into the outline of the steel city outside the station.

Chen Ye watched Lu Qingchuan's team walk out of the station exit. This Lu Qingchuan was quite strong. Without displaying any talent or using any skills, he simply cleaved the unicycle mechanical monster in two or three moves.

Or perhaps Lu Qingchuan's talent, like his, directly increases basic attributes; otherwise, it's hard to explain why his basic attacks have such high destructive power.

He withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the group behind him: "Let's go out too. Let's get the survival mark first."

Zhao Hai, Wen Ning, Qin Zhaoyang, and Zhou Yating nodded in unison, and Gu Qinghuan followed from the side.

The six people walked towards the exit.

Su Jin's team followed closely behind. After leaving the station, she did not follow Chen Ye. The two teams separated at the station exit to obtain survival marks.

Inside the station, the remaining queue began to move one after another. Some people talked in hushed tones, some exchanged glances, and some walked quickly out of the crowd and headed towards the exit of the station.

There are only one hundred survival marks, so every second counts. No one wants to fall behind in a place like this.

The crowd surged toward the exit like a receding tide, and soon, only the metal wreckage that Lu Qingchuan had cleaved in two remained on the empty platform.
