Chapter 522

~8 min read 1,413 words

The echo of the scream stopped abruptly, and the outside of the armored porthole returned to silence. Lin Xian broke out in a cold sweat, breathing tightly, looking at the scarlet hollow outside, feeling lingering fear at this moment. If it weren't for Kiki's reminder, he would have already launched an energy jump to pursue it in the instant just now, and only then did he realize that he had been tricked!

"The hunter's perspective is completely different from ours. They see through our thought fragments from the dimension, so they can sniff out the breath of fear and simulate fragments to lure the enemy. Be careful."

Kiki used telekinesis to sweep away a thick scarlet mist outside the train, flew to Lin Xian's side and landed, saying: "This ghost thing's ability is not just on the physical level, so it is more dangerous than an anomaly."

"Hoo... hoo"

"We must have been locked onto now, find a way to kill it."

Lin Xian's mechanical heart rose and operated, suppressing the surging adrenaline. A clear feeling occupied his reason. He directly manipulated the drone area to move closer, and at the same time quickly repaired the armored area that had just been attacked.

With the operation of mechanical repair, the concave armor layer made a creaking and humming sound, visibly recovering its shape.

Kiki maintained the telekinetic shield and said, "There is no other way, we can only wait for it to appear on its own and then take action."

Lin Xian nodded and looked at Kiki: "Since it uses scarlet to act, then start from the root."

Kiki understood upon hearing this. The two stood in the carriage, back-to-back, on alert. Facing this elusive hunter for the first time, Lin Xian and Kiki dared not be careless at all.

The Infinite stopped quietly on the tracks in the ruins. The scarlet world was like hell, dead silent. Lin Xian and Kiki had a tacit understanding, guarding in the train. Lin Xian observed the outside through his own drones and the vehicle-mounted sentry system, while Kiki used her telekinetic domain to unfold to capture the outside movements.

It was strangely quiet outside.

In the darkness, Lin Xian focused his mind and held his breath. On his holographic interface panel, there were monitoring screens from the sentry system and drones at dozens of angles simultaneously. The radar was running at full power. Just at this moment, a strange tall figure appeared in the monitoring perspective of a drone without any warning. The black shadow stood abruptly in a ruin, and the tall figure revealed a twisted weirdness. Looking through the drone's perspective, Lin Xian couldn't see the lineup, but immediately had a chill of being pierced and stared at, as if that face like a black hole was already less than a centimeter away from him!

"Nine o'clock direction."

Lin Xian's voice was lower than his breathing.

"It is observing us." Kiki also responded in a low voice.

Lin Xian's heart tightened, and he immediately suppressed his inner emotions. At this time, he took the initiative to turn all the drones on one side of the train to focus. Countless perspectives fell on that figure. More images began to appear in Lin Xian's perspective. He began to face that figure squarely. At the same time, the defense line in his heart gradually relaxed. He looked directly into the abyss and began to let fear invade his reason!

Sure enough, just at the moment when Lin Xian felt the chill filling his whole body again, the giant shadow in the scarlet distance disappeared strangely. Accompanying it was the explosion from the carriage behind him. The electrostatic field was torn apart instantly, and the scarlet thick mist surged!

And this happened to fall within Kiki's telekinetic domain. Kiki had already been prepared. When the monster appeared in her telekinetic domain, the girl's purple eyes flashed with electricity. The powerful domain force instantly locked and restrained the monster. The monster still wanted to flash from the scarlet, but the scarlet mist in the entire area was swept away by Kiki, creating a huge vacuum area.

Woo!

Just a one-second gap, the 1130 close-in defense gun bases on the roofs of Carriage 5 and Carriage 12 immediately turned precisely, aiming at the black shadow in the scarlet. The motor turned, and the metal rain poured out instantly!

Beep!!!

The metal jet impacted at a speed of 2000 meters per second. The biological force field on the hunter in the scarlet flashed violently with red ripples, but it was completely torn apart in less than two seconds under the terrifying kinetic energy ammunition. The high-temperature flame burned through the hunter's flesh, skull, and brain directly in 0.1 seconds. The blood mist, accompanied by golden flashes, bloomed into a jet-type brilliant firework in the pitch-black ruins!

The hunter had no chance to escape, and was swept into blood mist in a breath. The black blood shrank into the ground like a living thing.

At this time, Lin Xian suddenly felt the chill of being locked onto disappear, and the whole person breathed a sigh of relief.

"Killed it?"

"Hmm." Kiki raised her hand and used telekinesis to rush away the thick blood mist outside, saying to Lin Xian: "But we still can't let our guard down. Opening fire just now might attract some anomalies."

Lin Xian came to the window, opened a few blackout covers to observe the outside, and said vigilantly: "Should we use a lure bomb to divert the risk?"

"No."

Kiki immediately stopped Lin Xian's thought: "Except for the outbreak of the scarlet tide, hunters generally do not act in groups. Rashly causing turmoil in the dark night will make us passive. In this scarlet, it is better to be quiet than to move. A little carelessness will trigger an avalanche."

Lin Xian's expression turned solemn upon hearing this: "Then that is really troublesome, even more terrifying than the polar night."

"Yes, before in the polar night, we could get a breather by solving the marker problem, but not in the scarlet, because theoretically..."

"There is no big difference between day and night?"

"Yes, once the monster tide is triggered, it is difficult to have a chance to breathe again, and we can only keep running." Kiki hugged her chest, turned around and removed the power armor mask: "The synchronization device can largely avoid being marked with dark markers remotely, so as long as the movement is not big, theoretically, hiding in the car will be very safe. And with our armor, ordinary zombies and anomalies cannot destroy it."

Lin Xian nodded: "It seems we need to be more careful."

In the scarlet outside the car, rustling sounds began to appear, like walking, like climbing. Some scarlet zombies attracted by the machine gun sound began to hunch and approach from the blood mist. It looked like there were twenty or thirty of them, gathering from all directions of the train.

Seeing this scene, Lin Xian subconsciously shut down the fire control systems of the 1130 and electromagnetic railguns, preparing to send out dozens of Lei Sun drones to use laser pulse weapons to eliminate them silently. But at this time, he found that the pulse beams of the Lei Sun drones were all blocked by the biological force fields on these zombies, causing no lethality at all, but instead making these scarlet zombies start to go berserk!

I saw a few scarlet zombies covered with weird tentacles suddenly stretch out tentacles from tens of meters away. However, those tentacles strangely passed through a group of scarlet blood mist, shot out in the air, and instantly blasted several Lei Sun 2000 drones directly to pieces.

"This can also do spatial refraction?!"

Seeing this, Lin Xian was surprised and frowned, subconsciously preparing to send out his "Iron Man Dragon Girl" again to solve it. At this time, Kiki interrupted his action.

"Let me do it, your movement is too big."

Kiki immediately stepped forward, her purple eyes suddenly brightened. The telekinetic domain that surrounded and covered the entire Infinite was instantly extracted into a vacuum. The next moment, those scarlet zombies outside the carriage turned into a cloud of dust in an instant under some kind of huge strangling force. No sound was made, as if the mute button had been pressed between heaven and earth.

Lin Xian looked at Kiki in surprise: "Your telekinesis has become so powerful?"
