Chapter 28: Chen Sixuan's Decisiveness

Bang!

A huge force directly caused the steel tailboard to dent inward, creating a huge bulge. Lin Xian was shocked, thinking that the insect's strength was too great.

If this continued, the armor would be pierced sooner or later.

Ding-ding-ding~

The giant insect's upper body had already climbed onto Carriage 2. Seeing this scene, Kiki jumped and hopped to Carriage 2. She kicked the corner of the waterproof bag and actually found a small tool knife.

It turned out that she had secretly used this small knife to untie the rope on her body before.

Lin Xian glanced at it, but he had no time to manage her at this moment.

Clang! Clang!

At the same time, a sharp biting sound appeared on the roof of the carriage, emitting a terrifying metal tearing sound.

Lin Xian was furious, fearing that the carriage would be bitten through. The Wind Cannon blasted at the white soft shell position of the insect's tail abdomen as if he didn't want his life!

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!

This frantic Wind Cannon finally saw some results, shattering a few pieces of the white soft shell on the insect abdomen, and the huge impact also blasted out a bloody hole, and dark green insect blood gushed out.

This time, the giant insect felt pain, retracted its tail needle sharply, rolled it up again, and aimed at the dented tailboard again.

"Run!"

Lin Xian's pupils narrowed. Knowing that the tailboard couldn't hold on, he turned and shouted at Kiki.

Bang!

The huge tail needle pierced through the tailboard of the carriage this time and stabbed into the carriage. At this time, Kiki was squatting on the ground, anxiously cutting the nylon cable ties on her feet with the small knife. Hearing Lin Xian's shout, she raised her head and saw countless broken steel plate fragments flying toward her like bullets!

She

Seeing her neither dodge nor move, Lin Xian's heart sank.

In the blink of an eye, he suddenly appeared within kiki's line of sight, accompanied by an ice wall that condensed rapidly!

Lin Xian had already lunged in front of her and waved his hand!

Pfft! Pfft!

Just as the azure ice wall condensed, several black steel fragments embedded themselves deep into it, and ice shards shattered.

"Ah~"

kiki let out a soft cry as she was scooped into Lin Xian's arms and dodged to the side.

"Ouch~" kiki was pressed firmly. The ropes binding her hands and feet shattered. She looked at Lin Xian, who was sprawled over her, her expression somewhat panicked. "Hey, you bad guy, are you okay?"

Lin Xian struggled to get up, looking at her with a fearful expression.

"If you don't help, we're both going to die!"

"I... I... I'll try!" In her desperation, she immediately stood up, gritted her teeth, waved her hands in a panic, and shouted, "Hey!"

However, nothing happened.

Lin Xian's eyes widened, and he stood up on the spot, ready to curse.

But kiki's expression suddenly changed. She pointed toward Carriage No. 3 and screamed,

"Watch out!"

The giant insect that had pierced the tailboard seemed to have found a breakthrough. After thrashing around inside with its tail stinger, it retracted. It changed direction, and in an instant, two scarlet tentacles probed in through the hole in the tailboard.

Now, both Lin Xian and kiki saw that blood-red maw filled with giant pincers!

Clang! Clang!

The giant insect gave Lin Xian no time to catch his breath and began tearing directly at the damaged tailboard.

If this bug were to crawl in, the three of them would definitely be finished here today.

He made a split-second decision to stand up and fired two wind guns directly at the insect's mouthparts!

Pfft, pfft!

Flesh exploded. The giant insect was hit directly in the mouth, splattering dark green insect blood and letting out a deafening hiss that made the scalps of everyone in the carriage tingle!

The giant insect, in pain, happened to have its lower half hooked onto a row of wire mesh pillars beside the tracks. With the massive traction of the already accelerating "Infinite," it was almost pulled directly off the carriage.

But the insect's abdominal legs gripped Carriage No. 3 tightly, causing the entire train's speed to drop suddenly. The massive inertia made everyone stumble and nearly fall to the ground.

"Ah!"

Chen Sixuan was in the cockpit. The sudden deceleration nearly caused her to crash into the console. She looked back and saw a giant bug from afar, frantically struggling and clinging to Carriage No. 3.

She immediately shouted to Lin Xian,

"Hold on, there's a turn ahead!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xian grabbed kiki's waist, grabbed the handle of the Carriage No. 3 gate, and simultaneously activated his Mechanical Heart to begin decelerating.

If the speed were too high, it would easily cause the train to derail. In this situation, he had to reduce the speed.

Clang, clang, clang...

At this moment, the giant insect's lower half was snagged by more and more wire mesh along the road. Its legs dragged countless gouges into the carriage, sparks flying and screeching. Meanwhile, the red giant insect kept emitting cries.

However, just then, the train entered a curve. The massive centrifugal force caused the giant insect's lower half to wrap around even more wire mesh pillars. Finally, unable to withstand the force of the train's pull, it let out a shriek, slid off the roof of Carriage No. 3, and rolled down into the slope beside the tracks. Clang, clang.

Soon, the carriage was quiet again.

"That was close..."

Seeing that they had shaken off the giant insect, Lin Xian finally breathed a sigh of relief. His back was completely soaked in cold sweat.

"Are you two okay?" Chen Sixuan shouted.

"We're fine!" Lin Xian braced his hands on the floor. Just as he was about to climb off kiki, a roar suddenly came from the left side of the train!

kiki, beneath him, immediately shouted, "Watch out! It's back!"

Boom!

A giant red shadow crashed in from the side, emitting a loud noise. The entire carriage tilted completely, and the iron wheels on one side left the tracks, emitting a series of metallic wails.

Lin Xian, caught off guard, was sent flying along with his blade by the shockwave.

Just as he thought Carriage No. 3 was going to tip over and derail, and that he was going to crash into the carriage, an invisible force suddenly grabbed him, holding him suspended in mid-air!

Lin Xian was stunned. He turned his head to see kiki sitting up, reaching out a hand toward him. Her little face was panicked, and her eyes were flickering with a faint white light.

Then, this invisible force directly pressed Carriage No. 3 back into place along with him.

Clang, clang!

The iron wheels returned to the tracks.

Lin Xian was shocked.

!

This was kiki's ability? She could lift a carriage?!

Before he could react, the giant insect had climbed onto the side of the train again and instantly probed a pincer from the armored grille, biting down hard!

"Damn it, you just won't die!"

"Lin Xian!"

At this moment, Chen Sixuan in the front shouted to him with a stern gaze, "Accelerate! There's a 3-kilometer tunnel through the mountain before Beiwan Station!"

Lin Xian's heart jumped upon hearing this. He immediately understood Chen Sixuan's intention. He immediately activated his Mechanical Heart to accelerate while continuing to lower the hydraulic tailboard.

"That silly girl!"

"Who are you calling a silly girl?!" kiki said, furious.

Lin Xian pulled the tow hook from the rear of the train, his expression solemn. "Use your ability to tie that beast down for me!"

kiki's expression changed slightly upon hearing this. She looked at the giant insect, a rare look of seriousness appearing in her eyes. Knowing this was a life-or-death moment, she stopped bickering with Lin Xian and said in a low voice,

"Okay!!"

She furrowed her brow, began recalling the feeling from just now, and raised her hands, attempting to channel her ability.

Whoosh...

Sure enough, that invisible force appeared again, directly pulling the tow hook in Lin Xian's hand and quickly extending to wrap around the giant insect's tail.

Screech!

The giant insect flicked its tail, immediately causing the transmission of the tow hook to whine and spew black smoke.

Lin Xian's eyes were bloodshot, and he shouted, "Don't let it get away!"

"Lin Xian, watch out!"

Not long after, the orange-yellow headlights illuminated a pitch-black tunnel entrance. Chen Sixuan gripped the cockpit handle tightly and shouted a warning to the rear.

The giant insect seemed to sense danger and suddenly shrieked. But it was biting onto the side armor plate, and its tail was entangled by the metal tow hook, so it couldn't escape immediately.

"Accelerate!"

Lin Xian grabbed kiki and leaped into Carriage No. 2. At the same time, he activated his Mechanical Heart violently, using all his strength to drive the horsepower!

Boom!

The gas turbine and electric locomotive roared together, accelerating and carrying the front carriages into the tunnel, while a loud crash came from Carriage No. 3 at the rear!

The giant red centipede's massive body slammed directly into the tunnel wall, immediately squeezing Carriage No. 3 off the tracks. The other side of the carriage hit the wall, sparks flying and glass shattering!

Screech!!!!

The giant insect let out a shrill shriek, its countless legs frantically scrabbling as it tried to escape. But it had been completely dragged in by the train's inertia, and squeezed by the weight of the carriage, its thick insect armor ground against the tunnel, emitting a piercing screech.

Meanwhile, kiki, pinned beneath Lin Xian, was still gritting her teeth, bloodshot veins appearing in her eyes. She raised her hand, holding the tow hook tightly against the insect's tail, not intending to let it escape at all!

Sizzle, sizzle! Crack, crack!

What echoed in the carriage was a series of earth-shattering tremors and shrieks.

The 3-kilometer tunnel felt like it lasted only an instant, yet also like a long time.

Soon, the deafening sound suddenly vanished. Accompanied by a metallic wail of tension, Carriage No. 3 was pulled back onto the tracks.
