We’ll rest for a bit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah! Really? Thank you so much!!!” Hearing Lin Xian would give them food, Zhao Yan snapped out of her fear—survival instinct kicked in; she realized she was nearly starved to death, with no time left to mourn Professor Han.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, thank you, Mr. Lin…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wahhh… Teacher Zhao, we’re saved!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wen, now both terrified and elated, had endured prolonged despair—his spirit had shattered countless times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now on the Infinite Train, a fortress-like safehouse, and hearing Lin Xian would feed them, they could no longer contain their emotions and burst into tears again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In contrast, Ding Junyi, deputy director of the Bio-Research Division, merely looked tense, her eyes scanning Lin Xian’s teammates and the train’s interior, lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian ignored them, watched the building bring back the cultivation chamber, and told him to place it on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whoa, what’s this? A flower?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shasha, seeing the glass cultivation chamber her brother brought back, rushed over in astonishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s it called again…” Kiki scratched his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Type-1 Blood Plague Plant. If you like, you can call it Hell’s Black Chrysanthemum…” Ding Junyi’s expression was cold as she told Kiki, “It’s not an official name—just what we all call it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hell’s Black Chrysanthemum… sounds extraordinary,” Chen Sixuan frowned at the black pistil, her face filled with wonder; in her eyes, the strange flower held an eerie beauty, especially the red center, radiating a sinister allure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This thing…” Lin Xian glanced at it, “Store it away. The Federation’s Phoenix Corps should have relevant data later—we’ll decide how to handle it then.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before understanding it, Lin Xian decided not to stir his curiosity; if it truly related to supernatural abilities, it might be invaluable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Night fell, and the blizzard intensified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Across the vast southern plains of Mount Luoshan, howling winds buried dozens of kilometers of abandoned vehicles and tens of thousands of corpses under thick snow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zombies wandered the snowfield, crunching through snow up to their knees; many had frozen solid, becoming dark, humanoid statues.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the deathly silent 65th level freight terminal of Underground City 9, the Infinite Train sat motionless, its warm interior lights steadily driving away their fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After roughly an hour of rest and some food, Zhao Yan and Xu Wen’s emotions stabilized slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian had no time to care for them; instead, he and Kiki studied the underground city’s internal layout in the information center of Car 2.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Ding Junyi was familiar with the interior, Lin Xian called her over. “Indeed, there are still two train cars in Platform GF4. The paint suggests they’re former Federation assets,” Kiki opened the surveillance feed, switching to Platform 4 on the surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian stared at the two cars and immediately felt this trip hadn’t been in vain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Ding Junyi hadn’t lied—this alone proved his risky rescue decision had succeeded so far.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Once we get up, we’ll reposition the cars on this platform, then head for Yubei City.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s our next move?” Kiki kept searching for usable information inside the underground city, but most areas were offline; only a tiny fraction still connected to sub-systems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Obviously, we fix that Twin Star 11R nuclear-powered electric locomotive first. It’s dark now—those human Gui  could be anywhere, so we prioritize securing it. Everything else depends on circumstances.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But how do we get down?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kiki opened the underground city schematic and studied it intently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Junyi stepped forward and said, “If you’re going down, there are two options. First, drive the train down—it’s fastest, but if the track is broken or blocked, it won’t work. Second, take the elevator to Level 89, then descend via stairs. But if the track is broken, even finding the electric locomotive won’t help.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not necessarily.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kiki stood up proudly, clapped Lin Xian on the shoulder, “We’ve got a secret weapon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Junyi glanced at Lin Xian in surprise, saying nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian pointed at the underground city’s structural diagram and pondered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Simple. We take the elevator to Level 89, enter the safety passage there, follow the tunnel all the way down to the Platform 95 station—done.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The track segment from Level 65 to 89 was confirmed functional, so Lin Xian planned to explore downward along Level 89’s track. If damage occurred, he and Kiki could handle it directly. He had no intention of driving the Infinite Train downward, because if it couldn’t dock at a station, it would have to stop on a 59.5‰ gradient slope—risky, noisy, and if it failed to brake, they’d all be buried alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For safety, he needed to first confirm the condition of the track below and verify the locomotive’s status. Under uncertain conditions, he wouldn’t rashly send the entire train to the deepest level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the track proved intact, he and Kiki would simply operate the Twin Star 11R nuclear-powered electric locomotive up to connect with the Infinite Train and leave the underground city together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, that works!” Kiki agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then it’s settled.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No time to waste—Lin Xian immediately decided to move. “Da Lou, you stay on the train.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Xian, take me with you,” Da Lou said, surprised. Why leave him behind in such danger?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian shook his head directly. “You and Shasha protect the train.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With three strangers aboard and those strange human Gui  lurking in the underground city, Lin Xian felt uneasy; leaving Da Lou, an ability user, seemed more reliable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, he and Kiki’s abilities were more flexible—useful against zombie hordes or track repairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Da Lou, watch over them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Da Lou understood Lin Xian’s meaning and nodded. “Don’t worry, Brother Xian—I’ve got this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Lin Xian was about to leave, Ding Junyi stepped before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you follow your plan, I can guide you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Junyi pointed at the mobile terminal in Kiki’s hand. “Radios won’t work. Use the underground city’s sub-system for communication.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“OK.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian studied her deeply but didn’t refuse—he knew this woman could help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Lin Xian and Kiki put on gas masks and took the Geiger counter, setting out again into the night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>New book, please vote for monthly tickets, brothers—get on board and charge forward!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1245,"2026-06-19T18:20:04.953Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","5a3d864b0d5de904adbbf12f193bbb0215888a625bf04fc5056f5d504ded6f24","apocalypse-i-built-an-infinite-train-chapter-107","apocalypse-i-built-an-infinite-train-chapter-105",541,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalypse-i-built-an-infinite-train-cover.jpg"]
