Chapter 417: God's Creation
Crossing the waves, the Infinite drove into the deep sea along the Ring Star Orbit ocean section. Today the weather is clear. At this moment, the ocean is like a liquid blue plain. The sunlight is splashed on the water surface like melted gold foil. The giant sea-based orbit is floating with fine light spots on both sides, as if the train is crushing a star river covered with diamonds. Occasionally, flying fish jump up, their silver-bright bodies drawing parabolas in mid-air, and then suddenly plunge into the unfathomable deep blue.
Lin Xian and Chen Sixuan sat in the cockpit. Because there was no tractor, the train could only sail on the track by itself, needing to rely on radar and the train system to detect the state of the track.
After driving from the continental shelf into the deep sea, the color of the sea surface turned dark blue. Lin Xian looked at the distance on the right side of the track. The sea level and the skyline were obscured by a black curtain like a storm. He knew that it was the edge of the 8th Star Abyss, and that side was also the fracture zone of the sea ridge deep ocean.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Xian still felt a little nervous. He was afraid that this giant track would suddenly break, and then the steel train of thousands of tons would fall directly from the air into the deep sea.
Although he had upgraded the deep-sea cabin and underwater propulsion system for each carriage of the Infinite, he didn't want to drive a submarine in the deep sea unless it was a last resort.
Swish~
The Infinite drove at high speed on the ocean orbit like a steel dragon. Everything was calm. After a few hours, only the sky and the deep blue below remained between heaven and earth, as if no end could be seen.
Fire Brother, who was called to get some air, set up a lounge chair on the roof of the Infinite, wearing sunglasses and looking leisurely at the four sides of the sea, while Long Zhijie sat cross-legged in front, his gaze focused.
Both of them possessed flight ability. If they encountered an emergency, they could immediately make rapid maneuvers, so Lin Xian called them out to get some air.
Not long after, Chen Sixuan in the cockpit found that a layer of sea fog gradually rose on the sea surface, and the weather began to turn gloomy. At first, she thought it was a storm coming, but the Infinite's weather detection system did not detect a storm, as if this sea fog was only regional.
Soon, this sea fog gradually became thick, and the light all around became gloomy. Lu Xingchen on the train roof sat up slowly, took off his sunglasses, and his expression began to become serious.
"Brother Lin, the weather is changing strangely. This kind of sky-covering fog might reveal evil spirits in broad daylight."
"I have slowed down." Lin Xian responded with a communicator.
Long Zhijie, sitting cross-legged on the roof of the train, used his ability to expand countless tiny sand grains, circling within a range of hundreds of meters around the Infinite. These sand grains were like his perception radar. As long as they touched anything approaching, he could be alert immediately.
"This fog appears a bit strange." In the cockpit, Chen Sixuan said to Lin Xian, "It reminds me of the fog spider in Beiwan Town."
Lin Xian nodded, "Me too."
Viola controlled hundreds of flying drones to detect in front in a circular information chain. At this time, Lin Xian received a response.
【The track ahead is normal, approaching Taku Deepwater Port, no living creatures detected currently】
【Metal detection shows that the deepwater port has signs of severe corrosion in a large number of structures】
"Reached the deepwater port..."
Lin Xian said in a low voice when he heard this. Soon, in front of his gaze, the sea fog was like a shroud, slowly peeling away from the sea surface, revealing a giant steel outline.
Four drilling platforms stood in the lead-gray seawater, and in the middle was a steel deepwater port with an area of over two square kilometers. It was originally a cargo transfer port for the Ring Star Orbit, but now it was like a steel graveyard. When the Infinite slowed down and drove in, it seemed that the sound of corroded steel could be heard under the micro-waves of the sea, sobbing.
A large number of suspended corridors were like the spine of this section, hanging with spider-web-like cables, and all kinds of large cranes were hanging crookedly in mid-air, as if they would fall into the abyss in the next second.
Before driving into the port, Lin Xian and Chen Sixuan found that there were a large number of burned mechs, fighter planes, abandoned trains, and countless dead corpses on the platform. Those corpses had completely dried up and rotted, leaving only dry faces in the power armor masks. In addition, various rotten corpse tissues of eerie bodies were scattered everywhere on the drilling platforms and various parts of the port, which had also been dry for a long time. This place seemed to have experienced some tragic battle, and now it was dead silent everywhere.
【The track passing through the port ahead is blocked, and the track has not suffered large-scale damage】
At this time, Viola's voice came. Lin Xian immediately arranged, "Viola, call drones to clear obstacles, and by the way, inspect the track and patrol the entire deepwater platform."
【Viola understands.】
Woo~
In an instant, thousands of drones flew out. Attack drones flew to various parts of the drilling platform and cargo port to check, while engineering drones began to clear the debris piled up on the track.
"Lin Xian."
At this time, Kiki's voice came, "The sonar system detected something under the port."
"Abai and Hearing Shizhi also sensed it." Xiang Xiang Ningjing's voice also came.
"Check it, pay attention to the Dark Mark." Lin Xian arranged.
"Okay!"
Xiang Xiang Ningjing and others began to search.
The sea fog was filled, and the entire deepwater port was like a steel boat floating in the sea, quiet and eerie. Seawater flowed slowly between the platforms, reflecting the rainbow of oil stains. From time to time, waves would hit the rusted piles, making hollow echoes.
Lin Xian opened the cockpit, and he and Chen Sixuan stepped onto this deepwater port in power armor. Under the fog, the line of sight was greatly affected, and there was only a visibility of less than ten meters.
Under the radar and photoelectric scanning of the power armor, the outlines of various items in the fog were revealed. The entire port platform was desolate, and everywhere were various dry and rotten corpses.
What caught Lin Xian's attention was that no one had moved the guns here, including those trains transporting materials and aircraft. Overturned carriages could still see large areas of remaining materials.
"Has no one come to the port? This looks like at least two months." Lin Xian frowned and said.
"I asked Jiang Yun. Since the Star Abyss anomaly began, many doomsday trains no longer enter the ocean orbit. After the Dawn City battle, they basically all ran to the Dawn Center. It may be because the Phoenix Society did not use this track, the ocean section was not maintained, so those convoys did not dare to run to the sea." Chen Sixuan said.
Lin Xian nodded. Indeed, ordinary doomsday train teams generally choose safer land routes. If Lin Xian didn't have the Sky Dome train, he wouldn't easily step into the Pacific Ocean.
After observing the surroundings, Lin Xian and Chen Sixuan walked toward the material warehouse of the cargo platform. Kiki's voice came from high altitude in the headset.
"Lin Xian, I looked from a high place. This place is completely shrouded in sea fog, and it seems to have been abandoned for a long time. And looking at this situation, eerie bodies must have appeared."
"Be careful." Lin Xian scanned the giant winged creature's corpse that had crushed half of the material warehouse not far ahead, and said cautiously, "Protect Hearing Shizhi, pay attention to the situation in the sky."
"I know."
Infinite Carriage No. 3, Ding Junyi, who was focusing on research, saw the blood vine twisting its roots slightly, and the blood thorns seemed to carry red blood light. She walked over immediately, activated her ability, and felt the changes.
Then Ding Junyi frowned, and she immediately called Xiao Yuan.
"Xiao Yuan, look."
Xiao Yuan walked up at this time and found that the blood vine was turning its curled tender buds toward a certain direction at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon reached the edge of the culture cabin.
"Director Ding, this disaster plant seems to be exploring in some direction."
"I saw it too." Ding Junyi immediately picked up the culture cabin of the blood vine, came to the window, and rotated it at an angle. Sure enough, when she rotated a circle, the blood vine began to slowly move the direction of the tender buds, still clinging to the edge of the transparent cabin, and then the tender buds began to grow rapidly, making a squeaking sound.
"Southeast direction, there may be..."
"Ah!"
Before Ding Junyi finished speaking, Xiao Yuan let out a scream. Ding Junyi turned her head and found that Xiao Yuan had covered her mouth, pointing at the direction of the station platform outside the train window in horror. Both of them looked over and were shocked.
On the station platform where the Infinite was docked, under the thick fog, a figure stood there at some point. The figure was similar to a human but extremely tall, at least three meters high, with feet like sheep hooves and arched backward, and long, thin hands hanging down. The most eerie thing was that its head was a triangular opening, as if it were some kind of flowering plant. The inside was crimson, and the triangular head was staring at the direction of Ding Junyi at this time, which was chilling.
Rub!
In an instant, a golden flash lit up, the Carriage No. 5 door opened, and Dalou, Luo Yang, and others rushed out one after another. When Xiao Yuan's voice came, Qian Dele had already used his super speed to arrive for the first time. He caught sight of this eerie humanoid creature at a glance, and without saying a word, he swept over with a powerful kick.
But when his sharp kick swept over, the monster seemed to twist in the air for a moment, instantly shrinking away, and drilled toward the depths of the thick fog with a strange residual shadow moving in a winding way.
"Where are you running!?" Qian Dele saw that this thing was clearly not fast, but he missed completely with one kick, and he felt that it was strange and hard to find. Seeing the residual shadow escape, he followed with a flash.
"Dalou, Luo Yang, you guard the train, we'll go over and see!"
Lin Xian and Chen Sixuan had already arrived at this time, both moving extremely fast, the power armor mobility mode started, and they quickly traveled through the ruins of the port. At the same time, in the sky, Kiki also flew over with Hearing Shizhi.
"Lin Xian, Hearing Shizhi said she didn't sense the spiritual value fluctuation of that thing!"
"See if we can figure out what that is." Lin Xian accelerated, having fought with eerie bodies for a long time, he had long had experience. Any anomaly could not be taken lightly. If it was not solved sharply, it was likely to bring big trouble later.
The golden flash in front swept past quickly. In a blink of an eye, Qian Dele appeared on the cantilever of the deepwater port and stopped, looking puzzled.
Lin Xian and several others arrived at this time, looked at Qian Dele and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Strange, it was clearly not fast, but I couldn't catch up no matter what..." Qian Dele bent down, his face sinking slightly, and said.
"Viola!"
【I am here】
