Chapter 193

Carriage No. 5, the Roaring k23 electric rotary machine gun in the Building's hand had already run out of bullets, the rotary tube was red, and he picked up the original m556 light machine gun to continue firing.

Lu Xingchen stood in the middle of the carriage, opened a gap in the automatic door, and kept spraying flames outward, igniting a large area of trees along the way!

In the cockpit in front, Lin Xian, kiki, and Chen Sixuan heard Ding Junyi's words at this moment, all showing confusion.

"Stop, why?"

Ding Junyi didn't drag her feet at all, directly picked up the mobile terminal, and showed Lin Xian the changes of the Hell Black Chrysanthemum she had just recorded.

"Why those parasites would be attracted to the No. 1 blood-calamity plant is still unclear, but I think I have found the reason for the red light change on this."

Lin Xian's eyes condensed; at this moment, he saw on the screen that the red light on the Hell Black Chrysanthemum was actually increasing violently at a certain node, visible to the naked eye!

Ding Junyi said urgently: "Since the laboratory records, the No. 1 blood-calamity plant has undergone a total of three brightening changes and 1 weakening change; the three times it turned red were, respectively, when we escaped from Underground City No. 9, escaped from the Yubei Airport, and escaped from the Rain Town just now!"

"Although such a sampling standard is not enough to draw a rigorous scientific conclusion, it is now a matter of life and death, so I combined the group hunting effect to boldly make a guess, which is that these dark creatures will mark the prey that has not been killed with some kind of mark that we cannot see, and the red light reaction on the Hell Black Chrysanthemum is the concrete manifestation of this mark, just like the smell of blood in the forest, which will cause us to become the target of more eerie bodies in the dark night."

"This kind of mark might be the communication method of dark creatures; there is another possible situation, which is that the larger the eerie body, the deeper the mark it will give us; if Yubei City can be explained by the group hunting effect, then we just came out of Rain Town, didn't increase personnel, and as soon as we left the territory range of Rain Town, the red light of the chrysanthemum changed, and at the same time we immediately encountered a large number of dark creatures besieging us, so I believe that if we keep fleeing, when this mark reaches a certain degree, we might all encounter the situation that the fire line fleet encountered... total annihilation!"

Ding Junyi finished speaking in one breath, her eyes flickering slightly; with her rigorous personality, it was very difficult for her to say such a conclusion with many subjective tendencies, and she also knew that if her argument was wrong and adopted by teammates, it would very likely lead to the destruction of the whole train!

Lin Xian and the three heard her finish, and the solemnity on their faces deepened; Lin Xian frowned directly and said: "So you think the function of this Hell Black Chrysanthemum is to warn us humans?"

Ding Junyi said: "Not entirely, it's just that this plant can absorb dark energy, which is enough to show that the No. 1 calamity plant has the ability to perceive dark energy; by analogy, the mark of dark creatures must also be a kind of energy among them, but this is only one; its other functions might have to wait for me to take samples..."

"Director Ding!!"

Lin Xian's expression was solemn, and he suddenly shouted loudly to stop her argument: "Less nonsense, give the conclusion directly!"

Outside the car, artillery fire was everywhere, countless eerie bodies were swarming up, and the armor plates of the whole car were undergoing a severe test at all times; Lin Xian was already burning with anxiety; in this situation, he had no patience to listen to Ding Junyi's analytical logic.

Lin Xian's roar made Ding Junyi tremble all over; she looked at Lin Xian, opened her mouth in surprise, then her brow condensed, and she said quickly: "There are two methods; the first is to stop and solve all the eerie bodies around the train, kill them all to clear the mark; the second is to return to Rain Town and solve that big parasite and other parasitic pseudo-humans; I suggest we choose the second plan, because from a biological point of view, organisms that need to use traps usually do not possess strong defensive capabilities or the ability to escape natural enemies; in the natural world, they appear very fragile; therefore, they need to increase their chances of survival through traps or camouflage; that big parasite needs to hunt through fission reproduction and pseudo-human deception, and has a fixed territory, which shows that its immediate combat threat level to humans is not necessarily higher than the eerie bodies in the dark night; and the trouble we are encountering now is appearing endlessly; compared to this, the success rate of plan two will be higher; I'm done!"

kiki and Chen Sixuan heard this, all with expressions of disbelief; the two hurriedly looked at Lin Xian, seeing that his expression was also incomparably solemn at this moment.

As the team leader, every choice would directly affect the survival of the team, and Ding Junyi's inference at this moment undoubtedly gave the team a glimmer of hope while also giving Lin Xian a near-crazy choice.

Lin Xian's brain was running at high speed at this moment; intuition told him that Ding Junyi's inference about 【Mark】 was most likely correct; this point not only explained the group hunting effect but could also explain the change of the Hell Black Chrysanthemum after leaving Rain Town just now; more importantly, Lin Xian had actually always had such a suspicion.

The white giant monster from Jiang City, the crimson centipede that chased from Yushan to Beiwan, the sky jellyfish encountered after escaping from Underground City No. 9, and the siege of the whole train encountered after escaping from the siege of the Yubei eerie bodies!

Including the Iron Guard Brigade, the giant atmospheric mica like a mountain chased from Daluo Mountain all the way to Yubei Airport. Hunter, mark, the crimson light of the Hell Black Chrysanthemum became concrete at this moment; it seemed that everything could be explained!

He even remembered that when he was chatting with kiki last night, she also inadvertently mentioned that the team could only flee, and the more they fled, the more monsters there were, and the stronger they were, as if they were being targeted, as if those monsters in the dark night had issued a bounty order for them...

Team expansion was just a superficial phenomenon; the greater hidden danger was this 【Mark】 on the team, which constantly magnified the danger in the dark night; if one followed this theoretical inference, if one wanted to be safer in the dark night, the best way was to solve the monsters encountered and then enter a silent state.

This was actually very counter-intuitive; many people wouldn't think in such a direction at the first time, or didn't have the opportunity to think in this direction, which was: dark creatures possess the ability to communicate.

And this kind of communication was the hunter's mark!

Screech!

In an instant, the Infinite braked urgently; many of the eerie bodies that had collided with the train fell off the car due to inertia, and the tide-like offensive started to attack from the side carriage.

Everyone held onto the car body beside them tightly; Chen Sixuan looked at Lin Xian; stopping at this moment meant that Lin Xian had already made a choice.

Woo!

The motor engine roared, and before everyone could catch their breath, the train started to move in the opposite direction!

"Lin Xian!" Chen Sixuan shouted.

"We're going back!" Lin Xian looked at Ding Junyi: "I think Director Ding is right."

Ding Junyi's eyes were hot at this moment, she didn't speak, nodded at Lin Xian, and then turned to walk toward carriage No. 3.

As a scientific researcher, the only support she could provide was information and knowledge, and as a team member, this was what she had to do.

The whole train suddenly ran in the opposite direction, which caught everyone on the train off guard.

At this moment, Lin Xian's voice came from the internal communicator.

!

"Everyone be prepared; we are about to return to Rain Town; don't save ammunition; kill all threats encountered!"

"Received." Shu Qin didn't know Lin Xian's intention, but she had no doubts about Lin Xian's arrangements.

"Okay, Brother Lin." Sasha's voice also came.

"Understood, then do we need to open the door to fight?" Lu Xingchen's voice came; looking at that appearance, it seemed he wasn't fighting very happily.

"See the situation." Lin Xian said decisively; at this moment, he urged the train to run at full speed, breaking through the obstacles behind; fortunately, the head of the Gemini 11r nuclear-powered electric locomotive was specially built by him with double-layer armor, and the defensive power was not weak; except for not having an ice shield, the impact force was still very strong.

Although he didn't know if Blue Star's biological theory was applicable to those dark creatures, since he chose to believe Ding Junyi, Lin Xian didn't hesitate at all; he already had a plan in his heart at this moment.
