Chapter 61: The White Giant
Hum~
In an instant, a wave of dizziness suddenly washed over Lin Xian.
Clang, clang.
Opening his eyes again, the first thing he heard was Chen Laoshi's anxious shouting.
"Lin Xian! Lin Xian!"
Opening his eyes, his vision began to clear. Feeling the sound of the train rushing along the tracks, Lin Xian immediately woke up from the floor in a start.
Seeing Lin Xian suddenly collapse, Chen Sixuan turned pale with fright.
"What's wrong with you?!"
Lin Xian rubbed his temples and looked at Chen Sixuan. "How long was I unconscious?"
Chen Sixuan said with a strange expression, "Just... just a moment. You suddenly collapsed just now."
Lin Xian hurriedly checked Kiki on the floor and discovered that her eyes had already been half-swallowed by that black ink; a bad premonition immediately arose in his heart.
Thump!
One wave after another, Kiki's life or death was still unknown when another violent impact suddenly occurred on the roof of a carriage in the distance.
Lin Xian's expression changed sharply, and he said to Chen Sixuan,
"You help me look after her first!"
As he spoke, Lin Xian ran directly toward the rear carriage.
Hum!
With a shift of his thoughts, he pulled up the blueprint for the GK03 electric blade that Kiki had given him. Then, with a wave of his hand, a pile of Type-I tungsten-titanium alloy quickly combined and forged in the air. In the blink of an eye, a streamlined black long blade was slowly forged. Because several key materials were missing, he only used the Type-I tungsten-titanium alloy to temporarily forge a prototype. At the same time, he grabbed a fully loaded automatic rifle and hurried toward the rear.
Because of the forging, the hilt still radiated residual heat. Holding it in his hand, Lin Xian felt a jolt in his heart. Kiki's life or death was unknown, and he still hadn't shaken off Tang Hai and the massive zombie tide; he could only resolve the current predicament first.
He looked up and shouted at Gao Ta and Lou Shasha in the rear carriage,
"Gao Ta, Lou Shasha, grab your weapons! That old bastard is like a lingering ghost; let's slaughter him!"
"Brother Lin, be careful!"
Who would have thought that at this moment, Lou Shasha, who was in Carriage No. 5, shouted at Lin Xian with a terrified expression, pointing outside the train window as she yelled.
Bang!
No sooner had the words left her mouth than a huge, grayish-white withered claw slapped against the side of the carriage, immediately causing the glass on that side to shatter with the sound. The immense impact force sent Lou Shasha flying from where she stood.
Gao Ta was quick-witted and agile, catching his younger sister with one hand in a flash.
Lin Xian was sent flying, crashing directly into a supply cabinet on the side. Scrambling to his feet, he discovered that a giant white humanoid shadow had appeared at the rear of the train. His pupils shook, and his expression changed drastically!
He gritted his teeth hard. When it rains, it pours—wasn't this the giant white monster he had seen in Jiang City?!
How did it follow them here?
Impossible. They had already run over a thousand kilometers; how could such a thing track them for so long along the way?!
"Gao Ta, be careful, there's another one!"
He warned Gao Ta that there was still Tang Hai.
The zombie tide, the broken tracks, the giant white monster—the more Lin Xian thought, the more alarmed he became. Was all of this a coincidence or a long-planned scheme?
If it wasn't a coincidence, then it was too terrifying. This old beast had to be eliminated immediately.
There was no avoiding it; he had to fight. Without another word, Lin Xian opened the rear tailboard.
Gao Ta put Lou Shasha down, grabbed a machine gun, and stood ready.
Woo~
As soon as the tailboard was lowered, the giant white monster clinging to the top of the carriage frame suddenly hung its head down, looking into the carriage with its deep, terrifying eyes, and slowly opened its dark red, blood-filled maw.
"Ugh-ah~!!"
The giant white monster let out a high-pitched, sharp scream similar to a woman's, causing people's eardrums to ache painfully.
And at that very instant, the guns in Lin Xian and Gao Ta's hands opened fire at full power!
Rat-tat-tat-tat-tat!
Rat-tat-tat-tat-tat...
The massive firepower poured out crazily. The steel bullets, carrying immense kinetic energy, struck the giant white monster's face as if hitting iron; sparks flew everywhere, but no damage was seen.
Instead, blood splattered from where it was hit in the mouth!
The giant white monster seemed enraged, directly extending a sinister long arm to grab wildly inside the carriage! Clang-clatter...
All the tools were turned upside down in an instant.
"Ah!"
Gao Ta roared, putting strength into both arms, and directly grabbed a piece of steel, stabbing it down at the white claw. The immense force caused the entire steel bar to deform.
With a bang, like the muffled sound of a steel pillar being driven into a concrete floor, the back of the giant white monster's hand was actually pierced through by Gao Ta with the steel bar, even puncturing the carriage floor. The strength was astonishing!
Watching this scene, Lin Xian felt his back teeth itch. He thought Gao Ta's strength was too exaggerated; what would happen if he evolved in the future?
However, with this strike, Lin Xian clearly felt they had a chance; the feeling of helplessness from when the red giant insect attacked was gone.
Just as he was preparing to strike as well, he suddenly heard a rush of climbing sounds. Lin Xian turned his head sharply and was shocked to see Tang Hai emerge from nowhere, quickly climbing up the side of the carriage to the roof, and then running toward the front carriage.
Not good!
Lin Xian's expression changed sharply. At this moment, the giant white monster's palm was pierced, and it was pulling at the steel bar, trying to retract its hand.
"Cover me!" Lin Xian shouted, taking this opportunity, and then ran toward the rear of the train.
Seeing Lin Xian heading for the roof, Gao Ta immediately reacted, picking up his gun and firing a burst at the giant monster's head as it poked down.
Lin Xian was agile, leaping directly over the giant monster's arm and jumping onto the open-air carriage behind. Before he could turn around, he heard a whistling wind.
!
Without thinking, he cast an ice shield with his backhand and then leaped toward the rear of the jeep.
Bang!
The giant white monster's arm, swinging at this moment, shattered both the ice shield and the front of the jeep. The chains snapped, and the jeep was left hanging halfway off the edge of the carriage, only to be smashed by a utility pole by the roadside a moment later, falling to the side of the road.
"Damn it!"
Standing on the empty flatbed carriage at the rear, Lin Xian cursed inwardly. The two jeeps he had finally captured were gone just like that, without even leaving him a chance to devour them.
"Gao Ta, help me hold it off! I'm going to the front to chase Tang Hai!"
Lin Xian shouted into the wind. The giant white monster was hanging upside down on Carriage No. 5, while Tang Hai had already rushed toward the front of the train.
"Got it!"
Gao Ta didn't say another word, shouldering his gun as he rushed out, rolling to dodge the giant monster's muffled claw from above.
Rat-tat-tat!
Changing the magazine, Gao Ta fired wildly at the giant monster's mouth and eyes. Lin Xian took this opportunity to dash forward, simultaneously using his new skill!
"Flashback"!
This was a brand-new skill he had obtained from devouring the 'Iron Guard 3' military assaulter armor. He hadn't had a chance to try it yet, and he didn't expect to use it for the first time in such an urgent moment.
Swish!
In an instant, Lin Xian's entire body seemed to transform into a grayish-white afterimage. Holding the GK03 electric blade forged from Type-I tungsten-titanium alloy, he gathered his strength and flashed!
A 'crack' sound was heard, as if a sonic boom had occurred.
The giant white monster's giant claw, which had been reaching for Lin Xian, only grabbed an afterimage. The next instant, squelch! A vertical hole appeared in the center of its palm; flesh and blood burst and splattered everywhere!
And Lin Xian had already flashed behind the giant monster!
Hidden in Qi, striking with the edge!
Using this move for the first time, Lin Xian was incredibly shocked. Although it consumed quite a bit of essence, the lethality was far more terrifying than he had imagined!
One had to know that when he was in Jiang City before, he had held a short blade and hacked at this monster's fingers without even breaking the skin. Now, not only did he have a new skill and a new weapon, but his strength attribute had also greatly increased, finally allowing him to break through this thing's defenses. Lin Xian's confidence soared!
Below, Gao Ta watched Lin Xian's movement technique, which pierced through like a cannonball, with constant astonishment in his eyes.
Before he could react, the giant monster began to roar crazily, snapping the steel inside the carriage, freeing its hand, and turning around, ready to chase Lin Xian, who had just attacked it.
Its huge body pressed down on the carriage, emitting a dull, hollow sound. The wheels of Carriage No. 5 collided violently with the tracks, sparks flying wildly!
"Brother!"
At this moment, Lou Shasha, whose carriage was empty, finally had a gap to run out. She directly took out a steel pipe and threw it to Gao Ta.
The two worked with tacit understanding. Gao Ta caught the steel pipe, gathered strength in his hands, veins popping all over his body, and used all his might to thrust it directly at the turning giant white monster!
Woo! A violent whistling sound rang out.
The giant white monster also sensed some danger at this moment. It clearly possessed some intelligence, knowing that both Lin Xian and Gao Ta could directly cause it harm. Sensing Gao Ta's movement, it immediately stopped chasing Lin Xian, turned around abruptly, and its sinister, withered claws clenched suddenly. Bang!
It actually caught the scorching hot steel pipe, and sparks flew everywhere instantly!!
