Boom! Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire perimeter of the airport platform was locked in fierce combat, resembling a massive battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dozens of millions of zombies frantically climbed upward across every zone, flames roaring, explosions constant; the fully automatic machine guns had even overheated their barrels, each burst of fire and explosion illuminating the dense hordes of corpses surging along the city streets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Various bizarre insects, zombie ghosts, towering white giants, and black insects mingled among them; when the 1130’s fire line swept across, it turned everything into a rain of blood and flesh, forcing the Iron Guard troops manning the ammo feeds to haul supply chains in by truck from the airport’s military warehouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the control tower, Bai Shuang was conferencing with the emergency team on an evacuation plan when she heard Wei Kexue’s voice over the radio—her expression instantly sharpened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good! Radar has detected a massive anomalous entity in the sky—it must be the S-class atmospheric mica.

Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Iron Guard’s air defense missile launchers slowly rose, firing two small air-launched missiles that streaked through the air, exploding violently against the edge of the sky jellyfish’s canopy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clatter! Clatter! On the ground, an Iron Guard unit advanced rapidly; at its head stood a middle-aged man in military uniform, around forty, his face stern and features square, radiating the aura of a battle-hardened veteran.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"General, Captain Bai just reported the ascending elevator repair still has one hour remaining.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His aide rushed beside him with the update.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Order the vehicle convoy on the square to retreat inward—the threat can now reach inside.\" Zhang Dingzhong kept walking, pointing to the rail platform: \"Tell Bai Shuang to coordinate—evacuate everyone to the rail platform.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most survivors had picked up guns and begun aiding the Iron Guard; the thousands of survivor evacuation vehicles now held mostly the elderly, weak, women, and children.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where are the guards? Why aren’t they here to reinforce?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Federal Investigation Team hasn’t left yet—they contacted us, saying they won’t depart until we provide them with airspace escort.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What? Escort?!\" Bang—Zhang Dingzhong stopped, snorting coldly: \"Ma Xiaotang, go tell that Taylor—I don’t care if her plane carries the father of some former legislator or the son of some president—I’m giving her twenty minutes to get the hell out, or she never leaves!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!\" the aide replied immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"General, a minor earthquake detected in the southwest—possibly linked to the anomalous entity.\" Another officer ran up urgently reporting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How much time remains for evacuation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to the emergency team’s estimate, after the ascending elevator is repaired, it will take roughly five hours to transfer all personnel currently at the airport.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Five hours...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Dingzhong looked up at the sky—the dark night pressed down, suffocating the entire airport, as if a vast celestial net was slowly converging upon them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the port, more and more survivor vehicles were being destroyed by anomalous entities; many survivors who fought back had died; wails of the dead and cries of women echoed constantly, leaving many survivors without vehicles or support.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching this, Zhang Dingzhong ordered decisively: \"Listen to my command—unload the artillery and air defense battalions’ equipment; assign the logistics team to transfer all wounded and isolated personnel inside the port onto the Iron Guard’s transport trains! Notify all battalions and units—prepare for full defense! All remaining aircraft from Airship Team One and Team Three must take off immediately to guard the sky and prevent anomalous entities from damaging the ascending elevator!\" \"Yes!\" the Iron Guard 52 NCOs responded in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elsewhere, in the ascending elevator maintenance zone, under Lin Xian’s repairs, one maintenance robot after another ascended and, under Wei Kexue’s control, joined the repair sequence, flying toward the ascending elevator’s upper passage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As fault reports continued to vanish from the system, Wei Kexue’s expression eased somewhat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to the current sequence, if repairs are completed, what’s the minimum time needed to finish the entire ascending transfer?\" In the quiet maintenance zone, free of gunfire and explosions, Lin Xian repaired a robot while asking Wei Kexue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Minimum?\" Wei Kexue took a deep breath: \"At least five hours—this is already our maximum capacity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then seemed to guess Lin Xian’s thought, lowering his voice: \"You’re from the train group—you want to use the Horizon Gate to charge straight up, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xian said nothing, but nearby Kiki spoke up: \"Why not?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Too risky,\" Wei Kexue said. \"Not just your train—nine train groups have entered the ascent sequence these past days. Without a traction platform, current measures can’t guarantee safety in the high-altitude corridor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The traction platform Wei Kexue mentioned was a device similar to a flatbed trailer, but far more complex in safety design—it directly connected to the track like a rail shuttle, fully coordinated and electromagnetically launched by the system. Thus, cars and trains didn’t need to move themselves during ascent or acceleration in the low-pressure high-altitude corridor—they were carried entirely by the traction platform, enabling both high transport efficiency and automated scheduling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like ferries flying through the sky, cars and trains didn’t need to drive themselves, yet still directly applied electromagnetic acceleration to basic vehicles, achieving long-range deployment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if the train used the Horizon Gate to charge upward without the traction platform, it would be driving directly on the high-altitude corridor’s track—without the platform, it couldn’t receive electromagnetic acceleration and would have to propel itself through the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In early operations, this was achievable via track-based information scheduling, boosting speed to around 500 km\u002Fh—faster than most high-speed trains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But under current conditions, if these apocalypse trains charged upward unchecked, and other electromagnetically accelerated vehicles followed behind, any accident in the high-altitude corridor would trigger a catastrophic chain reaction—its scale unimaginable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’ve also considered increasing single-transport capacity to improve evacuation efficiency, but the same problem remains...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lack of power?\" Lin Xian replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Kexue nodded: \"Besides the ascending elevator and electromagnetic acceleration system, we must also maintain the high-altitude corridor’s air defense—so the corridor’s throughput is compromised.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At night, anomalous entities in the sky may be fewer than on the ground, but often more terrifying. Since the Day of Revelation, most aircraft—even orbital satellites—have been destroyed. The sky isn’t safe. Our sky-city, Qingluan, crashed into the deep Pacific two days ago—fifteen thousand people aboard. Phoenix Association is still desperately rescuing them; rumors say something horrific has emerged from the deep sea...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\" Kiki frowned. \"That sounds strange—you were talking about sky anomalous entities, now you’re saying deep-sea ones?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s the difference?\" Wei Kexue adjusted his glasses, pointing upward: \"Some things that belong in the sea have appeared in the sky. In the ten-thousand-meter abyss, there must be terrifying entities humanity cannot yet confront.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keep pushing updates—mid-month, begging for monthly votes.
