Chapter 85: Opening the Lid

~7 min read 1,394 words

Gao Ta's expression darkened. He immediately switched to the other side, opened the train window, raised his gun, and fired a burst at the thin monkey's back in the dark night.

*Da-da-da-da-da!!! *

Who would have thought that the thin monkey's figure was very agile, and with the scorpion-tail limbs on his body, his running speed was extremely fast. He shuttled rapidly through the mountains and forests. Gao Ta's machine-gun fire wasn't accurate to begin with, and it kicked up a burst of dirt and snow dust behind him, failing to hit him at all.

And that thin monkey had a face full of manic laughter, shouting toward his convoy direction while running.

"Hahahaha, Boss, there's only one man, two beauties, and the rest are all supplies!! Hurry and grab them, if you're late, there won't even be soup left!!"

His words were extremely inflammatory, instantly making the thugs in the convoy boil with excitement.

*Da-da-da-da-da! Da-da-da! *

As the first shot was fired, this thug convoy began to fire comprehensively, sweeping toward Gao Ta's side.

A hail of bullets arrived, *bang-bang-clang-clang*, sparks flew everywhere, and Gao Ta and Lou Shasha could only shrink back and hide.

Countless car lights and searchlights illuminated the train in the dark night.

And seeing Gao Ta suppressed by firepower, the crowd became even crazier. Some people drove their cars and began to step on the gas pedal to rush toward the train, with gun barrels constantly extending from the windows to fire at the train.

"They only have three people!"

"There are a lot of supplies on the train!!!"

"Kill that man."

*Clang-clang-clang-clang... *

Countless bullets hit the "Infinite"'s steel armor, emitting crisp tremors, but this train was like a fortress, and ordinary bullets couldn't cause half a bit of damage.

But these people didn't care. At this moment, they all seemed to have red eyes. They only needed to suppress Gao Ta with firepower and then find a way to get close to the train.

Quite a few vehicles began to circle around, some rushed over wanting to grab the armored car, and others even raised Molotov cocktails.

The doomsday thugs began to besiege the train!

On the other side, in the dark Carriage No. 1, Lin Lin Xian paced back and forth, the surroundings silent.

The headless red-clothed female ghost with a good figure stood to one side in a bikini, the head on the ground constantly watching him pace back and forth.

"Frequency band... frequency band."

Suddenly, he stopped his pace, looked up at the ceiling light of the carriage, and his heart moved.

He remembered the lights from just now.

There was one thing that didn't seem to be affected by this eerie frequency.

That was his Mechanical Heart!

*Snap-snap~*

Lin Lin Xian steadied his breathing, tried to flicker the lights twice, and then waited for a response.

After a while, the lights indeed flickered twice.

Outside, there was a hail of bullets, and Chen Chen Sixuan, looking at the flickering lights, immediately guessed Lin Lin Xian's intention and also followed by turning the lights on and off twice.

In an instant, Lin Lin Xian looked at the flickering lights overhead, and his whole body felt a sense of tears welling up in his eyes.

It still has to be my Chen Chen Laoshi...

"If the lights can flicker, then the simplest method is... Morse code!"

"Let me think, AM07, AM07, don't use 0, just AM7, Chen Chen Laoshi must be able to understand."

Chen Chen Sixuan was a university teacher and was familiar with railway knowledge; she should have some knowledge of international light signals.

Lin Lin Xian tried his best to recall: "A dash represents long, a dot represents short, with a 1-second interval in between, so it should be..."

*dot-dash / dash-dash-dash / dash-dash-dash-dot-dot-dot / *

Thus, Lin Lin Xian began to operate his Mechanical Heart to light the lamp. First three shorts, three longs, three shorts, indicating a distress signal, and signaling to the other party that he was using light signals.

On the "Infinite" side, they were facing a great battle.

*Bang-bang-bang! *

Gao Ta was constantly firing back through the train window under the hail of bullets.

"Brother! There are too many of them!"

Lin Lin Qingyu shouted, firing another grenade at the window outside.

*Bang! *

The grenade hit the left front hood of a small pickup truck squarely. With a *boom*, the engine and tires were blown open, and the entire car flipped over due to inertia, rolling down the hillside. The life or death of the people in the car was unknown.

*Da-da-da, clang-clang-clang! *

Countless bullets poured down. As the firepower intensified, the few people on the train all realized that this was actually a thug convoy of considerable scale.

At this moment, several cars of the vanguard had rushed to the front of the train, and over a dozen thugs with eager eyes crouched down, got out of the cars, and dispersed. Some ran toward the train head, and others ran toward Carriage No. 5 and the armored car.

These thugs began to use various means to try to open the train doors. The tail plate of the train was already surrounded by people with various steel pipes, crowbars, and machetes; some even pulled out trailer hooks and chainsaws from off-road vehicles, and everyone was crazily waiting for the moment the door would be opened.

"Everyone don't be afraid, there are really only three of them!"

!

"We've found a big treasure."

"Grab the cars at the back first!!"

The firepower on the train clearly didn't cause much deterrence to these thugs with red eyes, and some were even constantly clamoring.

At this moment, a black shadow in the thug convoy suddenly leaped onto the roof of a moving car, then stomped down with great force, directly causing the roof of the car to collapse on the spot, and the whole person leaped high like a cannonball.

*Thump. *

The black shadow landed on the roof of the "Infinite" and slammed his fist against the roof.

*Bang! *

Under the massive force, the top armor only showed a tiny dent. Seeing this, he was immediately surprised; it seemed the train's armor wasn't just ordinary steel plate.

One strike failed, and this person rushed toward the rear of the train again, preparing to open the hydraulic tail plate!

"Brother, it's an ability user!"

Hearing the massive movement on the roof, Lou Shasha and Gao Ta reacted immediately.

*Thump! *

That person rolled on the roof, fell toward the rear end, then knelt on one knee, formed a palm with one hand, condensed it into hard black metal skin, and then plunged it into the gap between the tail plate and the carriage!

*Screech!! *

In an instant, sparks flew everywhere. His skin was actually harder than the steel plate, and he was actually trying to defeat the hydraulic machine with his bare hands.

That person pried open a gap in the hydraulic plate, inserted his other hand at the same time, and then intended to force the hydraulic tail plate open with both hands.

But the power of the hydraulic tail plate wasn't so easily pried open, so he just propped open that gap and shouted to the rear: "Old Third Zhu, use the car hook!"

"Okay!"

Another thin monkey with a scorpion tail shouted, pulled out a metal car hook from the front of several cars, and prepared to hook the tail plate directly, using the pulling force of several cars to pull the tail plate open.

*Bang-bang-bang! *

At this moment, a burst of bullets shot out from the gap. Gao Ta below held a machine gun and swept at him, only then discovering that the person on the roof was a middle-aged man with a full beard. He saw the bearded man just turn sideways, his whole body turning gray-black, and those bullets hit his body as if hitting metal, being bounced away.

"Brother, your aim is not bad."

The bearded man sneered, his strength increasing. "I'm here to open the lid for your turtle shell!"
