These issues are normally handled as routine maintenance and aren’t complex, but the problem now is that there are too many fault points, all within the safety protocols, forcing the system to shut down. We’re short on personnel, and we need to climb to the high-altitude sections of the elevator to fix them—which will take considerable time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the vehicle, Wei Kexue shouted over the deafening gunfire to Lin Xian: “The engineers sent by Silver Star can help a bit, but it’s all about mechanical repairs. Those maintenance zones are usually handled by large numbers of maintenance robots; relying solely on humans won’t speed things up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then why not activate the maintenance robots?” Kiki asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Kexue waved his hand. “When we arrived here a few days ago, most of the maintenance robots were still functional. But yesterday, after the Taitiewei encountered that atmospheric mica on Daluo Mountain, they seemed to be hit by some kind of ionizing pulse—burning out the core control boards of these robots…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian frowned. “So the reason other ascent channels haven’t been activated isn’t just insufficient power—it’s because most of the port’s main control programs have failed, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Kexue’s expression darkened as he nodded. “We’ve urgently requested reinforcements from headquarters, but the timing… it’s too late.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s lucky those electromagnetic railguns survived—otherwise we’d have virtually no air defense at all.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When the zombie horde first surrounded us, it wasn’t as severe as now. Most of the zombies and anomalies didn’t actively attack the port. The defense systems only fully activated after the Taitiewei retreated back here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the shuttle passed through the port platform and entered the massive ascent elevator shaft. Instantly, the light and scenery shifted, revealing a colossal, magnificent super-engineering project before Lin Xian’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deep inside, transport corridors stretched upward, leading to a vast black platform where all trains or vehicles entering the sequence were prepared. Then, these vehicles would accelerate in three stages, launched almost like projectiles along the ascent track to reach a vertical height of 4,800 meters, entering the high-altitude corridor above the Dazhu Plateau’s snowy peaks. Within the enormous pipeline, they’d be electromagnetically accelerated to 1,000 km\u002Fh, transporting tens of thousands of tons of cargo across the plateau to Jiazhou City, 4,500 kilometers away, in under five hours—faster than commercial airliners.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Engineer Wei, take me to see those maintenance robots.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fully repairing the entire ascent elevator was clearly unrealistic. Its scale rivaled a small city; trying to cover it with the Mechanical Heart and repair it would kill Lin Xian before he finished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All he could do now was manufacture key components to supplement the system—if he had blueprints.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But from what Wei Kexue said, this wasn’t just a matter of one or two components. If he could fix the maintenance robots, the problem would resolve much faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Kexue looked up at him, said nothing, and quickly nodded. “I understand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shuttle sped into a large maintenance zone. Under dim yellow lights, rows of transport chains and lifting platforms appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Kexue operated the computer system, activating the lights in a designated area. Suddenly, the lights flared, revealing rows of small yellow maintenance robots on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“These are the PX-05 engineering robots, specifically designed for ascent elevator maintenance. They’re normally managed directly by the port’s self-inspection system. When the faults occurred, my colleagues and I tried to repair a few, but failed. There were a few spares in the repair warehouse, but before this, the Federation Investigation Team took them all to repair airships.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That damn Federation Investigation Team again—why won’t they leave? All they do is cause trouble.” Kiki snapped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Kexue sighed. “Though we now belong to different factions, Phoenix Society’s top priority is helping more survivors survive. We can’t directly clash with them—if all the Blue Stars die, our resistance becomes meaningless.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian said nothing, walked over, placed his hand on one of the engineering robots, and activated the Mechanical Scan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Scanning… Progress 15%] [Scanning Progress 50%]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These factory robots used small Hall-effect anode thrusters for high-precision aerial operations. From the scan progress alone, Lin Xian knew their precision was high. But he also gained an unexpected bonus: the robot’s overall structure was intact—not like the earlier Tietie-3 military mechs, whose cores were destroyed or vanished, leaving only empty shells useless for consumption. And consuming such incomplete units offered no efficiency advantage over complete mechanical bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So unless absolutely necessary, Lin Xian always prioritized intact, functional machines—highest efficiency, and he gained complete blueprints.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After roughly twenty minutes, Lin Xian completed the full scan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Scan Complete. Acquired PX-05 Engineering Robot Blueprint.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Detected burned circuits on main control board. Repair?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Repair!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the prompt, Lin Xian exhaled in relief. Finally, he had a complete robot blueprint. The materials weren’t complex, but with his current mechanical manufacturing level, production would be slow. Still, with this, he could now manufacture batches of maintenance robots to repair and maintain the trains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could even mount machine guns or grenade launchers on them and turn them into combat robots…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vrrrrm!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blue light flickered in Lin Xian’s hand. To ordinary people, repairing the robot’s intricate internal wiring would be a nightmare. But for his Mechanical Heart, it was effortless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Drip. ‘Program initiated.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The PX-05 engineering robot’s main control panel glowed with fluorescent light. A faint hum sounded. Its thrusters ignited with pale blue luminescence, and the robot slowly rose into the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whoa! It’s actually fixed!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Kexue adjusted his glasses, stunned. He quickly checked the system—sure enough, a numbered engineering robot now appeared as online.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian nodded. “The first one took longer. Now I’ll fix all of them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Excellent!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Kexue’s eyes shone with admiration. For a mechanical engineer, Lin Xian’s ability was like divine intervention. With this power, why bother studying ‘Control Systems Engineering,’ ‘Mechanical Manufacturing and Equipment,’ ‘CAD and Mechanical Components,’ ‘Material Forming Technology,’ or ‘Engineering Materials and Applications’?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to beg Lin Xian to take him as a disciple—but it felt inappropriate. Then he remembered this ability couldn’t be taught, and regained some rationality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good. I’ll immediately organize maintenance. If we get twenty operational robots, I estimate we can finish repairs in under an hour.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian nodded, said nothing, and immediately began repairing the next robot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More updates coming! Mid-month, I’m begging for monthly votes—thank you all for your support! Every 1,000 votes will trigger an extra chapter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1094,"2026-06-19T18:20:04.953Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","bb9ff43234659224eb39405109c84b2843aeec00d2c6235215083b5a7d991357","apocalypse-i-built-an-infinite-train-chapter-149","apocalypse-i-built-an-infinite-train-chapter-147",541,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalypse-i-built-an-infinite-train-cover.jpg"]
