Chapter 531

The progress of the Infinite was smoother than Lin Xian expected. Except for the hunter encountered on the first night, they only encountered some scarlet zombies or energy-swallowing insects during the march. Although the Infinite train had more than a dozen carriages, relying on heavy defenses and a large number of drone deployments, these monsters basically did not cause much pressure.

But the more this was the case, the more Lin Xian felt weird. With the deepening of the scarlet, the Infinite was now driving on the mountain plain east of the Sierra Madre Mountains in Mexico. The track was not smooth. This longitudinal line running through the north and south was not the main line of the orbital orbit. It was an old road nearly 40 years ago, and it lacked maintenance after the doomsday. Broken tracks, rusting, and terrain collapse became frequent.

The dim daylight could not penetrate the thick scarlet clouds, making the space look hazy as if in a thick fog. On the afternoon of the third day after leaving Hake, the Infinite driven by Lin Xian and Kiki was close to the vicinity of Leon City in central Mexico.

Swish swish swish!

Countless steel frame tracks flew rapidly in the air, as if they were falling and combining precisely driven by magnetic force. A small steel structure rail bridge was built out of thin air over a broken river valley.

Lin Xian, wearing the modified power armor, was covered in dark energy synchronization frequency. After all the parts fell into place, he raised his hand and grabbed it. The connection points of the metal parts were instantly welded and bitten to death. He completed the construction and laying of this nearly 50-meter rail bridge in less than three minutes, and did not rely on the power of drones at all, with amazing efficiency.

"There are three main lines coming from the North American direction. Besides the line we are taking, there is the west line from Guaymas to Mexico City, close to the Pacific Ocean, and then the west line from Monterrey. These three lines can all pass through. But looking at the situation of this road, no car fleet should have retreated from this line."

Kiki flew down from the air, surveyed the road conditions ahead, and said in the communication frequency band: "Do you think we missed the main force?"

"That's a good thing." Lin Xian stepped on the low-temperature sand and soil with ice chips and walked to the edge of the river valley, looking at the soul-oscillation value concentration displayed on the hud panel and frowning: "But it shouldn't be such a coincidence."

Kiki landed beside him, looking forward. Under the scarlet thick mist, the entire river valley was incomparably dead silent. The river had long dried up, exposing the gravel-like riverbed. The rotten vegetation and trees were like being burned by a big fire, withered into black-gray, looking like the decaying wood of that gloomy place, without any vitality.

"It feels like we are not on Blue Star anymore, dead silent." Kiki threw a small stone, which fell on the riverbed below without making a sound, rolling for a while. "Didn't you say that in the Tower People's civilization, there are green mountains and green waters, and giant sky screens? Why are there no such things at all except for those ugly 'Angels'?"

"Civilization games only give us things we can understand, but in reality, it is not."

Whoosh!

Lin Xian's mechanical heart started. He walked in front, and the Infinite parked on the track behind followed slowly under his manipulation, and then drove over this river valley. But before driving out a hundred meters, a section of damaged track appeared ahead. The broken and bent steel rails were scattered and buried in the sand and stone, as if they were washed and broken in one direction.

Kiki grabbed the broken rail from the sand and stone, and then it was mechanically refined by Lin Xian, and then quickly fell back to its original position and connected.

The two cooperated tacitly and repaired all the way. In the process, Lin Xian swallowed the metal objects he could see in his sight without wasting them. The 7 manufacturing sequences in the Black Star Forge were running non-stop, manufacturing tracks and parts. This track was needed for the retreat later, and he had to repair it well.

"Lin Xian."

Kiki landed from the air, a telekinetic wave swept away the scarlet sand and dust flying in front, and the two looked forward. In the dim light, the outline of a dense city cluster appeared in sight. Not long after, an originally dense city cluster appeared in sight.

The high-rise streets were all hidden in the scarlet. The Infinite followed slowly and gradually approached a station in the city. Lin Xian and Kiki returned to the car, looking at the walls of the buildings on both sides of the road covered with some kind of black blood-like bacterial net patterns, like blood vessels wrapping the buildings layer by layer. The city was dead silent, and humanoid dry corpses standing still could be seen everywhere in the shadows, not knowing whether they were zombies or some kind of human anomalies that died, standing in twos and threes.

"The scarlet is getting thicker and thicker, thicker than the North Bay fog array we were in before." Kiki looked outside and said in a low voice: "Shall we speed up and rush over? The buildings here are very dense, and there must be many scarlet anomalies."

Lin Xian shook his head: "It's useless to rush, there's nothing chasing us, and... is there any safe place?"

The heavy train ground on the tracks and slowly traveled through the broken and gray city. The speed was kept at a low speed. Kiki and Lin Xian were responsible for clearing obstacles and repairing tracks, trying not to cause too much movement. Along the way, the city could hardly see any color. The billboards on the side of the tracks and streets were all covered by a layer of scarlet ice, as if the color of the world had been erased, and the whole city was buried in a layer of thick sand.

But they knew that it was not sand, but substances wrapped in blood mist and ice chips, but they could not extract water for drinking. In the whole world, there was no food, no water, and no air. Even if they didn't need to breathe, they would mutate and die quickly under the strong distorted dark energy radiation.

Soon, an open rail station appeared ahead, but Lin Xian did not intend to stop. He drove directly out of the station toward the direction outside the city. Just when the Infinite was traveling on a city viaduct, a strange vibration made the two vigilant.

"Did you feel it?"

"Hmm."

Rumble~

The vibration was weird, the sound was not loud, as if the viaduct track below was twisting slightly. Lin Xian slowly braked the train, his eyes fixed on the front, his heart moved, the fire control radar of the whole train opened instantly, the vehicle-mounted 1130 and electromagnetic railguns rose silently, and at the same time, the drone array surrounding the train began to expand the distance of following synchronously, like an invisible flying net surrounding the Infinite.
