"Lin Xian, how much longer?"
Water had already risen past everyone's knees in the corridor. Chen Sixuan stepped through the murky water, frowning at the black depths beneath her.
"Almost done."
【Scan Progress: 90%】
"At most, ten more minutes."
Lin Xian pressed his communicator. "Everyone, report your status."
"No issues here," ca the response from Shu Qin's side of the building. "But the water has reached the elevators."
Shu Qin used her communicator to contact KIKI. "KIKI, Director Ding, how’s your situation?"
Crackle—
A burst of static ca through the communicator.
Inside the depressurization chamber of the subrsible, KIKI heard the interference in her earphones and imdiately put down the device. She turned to Ding Junyi. "Soone’s calling us. We should head back."
Ding Junyi glanced at the research area, now completely subrged, and nodded. "I'll analyze the engineering logs after we get back."
"I think the situation is pretty clear," KIKI said grimly. "There's no way the Foundation isn't involved in this."
Gurgle, gurgle—
Suddenly, a strange empty thump echoed from the chamber’s drainage pipe, followed by a stream of rising bubbles.
The ground shuddered, and the water rippled violently.
Just as KIKI was about to leave, sothing caught her eye—at the drainage pipe’s opening, a creature resembling a black, branch-like structure slowly erged from the swirling vortex. Its wet body glistened in the dim light, and a pair of eerie eyes seed to lock onto them.
"What the h*** is that?!"
KIKI instinctively reached out, activating her ability.
With a loud boom, water surged, coalescing in her grip as she yanked the black creature out of the pipe. But to her shock, its body stretched further and further—like a massive snake. Even after pulling out four or five ters of its length, its full form remained hidden within the drainage system.
The tremors intensified. Both KIKI and Ding Junyi sensed sothing was seriously wrong.
KIKI imdiately seized a subrsible from above and slamd it down onto the creature’s body.
Boom!
The serpent-like entity writhed in agony, its enormous body thrashing wildly, sending shockwaves through the water. The sheer force shattered the chamber’s glass panels.
Then—crack, crack, crack!—the ground split open.
With a deafening roar, a colossal black head burst through the floor.
The creature resembled so kind of eldritch sea serpent, its massive head lined with lantern-like eyes, arranged from largest to smallest in a row. As it erged, a surge of inky black water gushed out in torrents.
KIKI’s eyes widened in horror.
The black, branch-like creature she had grabbed earlier? It was rely one of the serpent’s lures—an appendage growing from its head. Now fully revealed, it had taken on the grotesque shape of a human face, complete with crude facial features.
"We need to go—now!"
In that instant, KIKI realized her psychic powers couldn’t restrain the monstrosity. Without hesitation, she grabbed Ding Junyi and shot toward the corridor.
anwhile
Elsewhere in the building, Shu Qin and Lü Chang felt the tremors. Dust rained from the ceiling, lights flickered, and the water churned violently.
"What the h*** is going on?"
Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh!
Water gushed down the elevator shaft, and on the ninth floor, the lights flickered erratically, accompanied by bursts of electrical discharges.
Standing atop a cabinet, Da Lou tightened his grip on his Roarer Gatling Gun and peered cautiously at the murky, waist-deep water below.
"Stay sharp. There’s sothing in the water."
Shu Qin lowered her gaze. The mont she did, her expression shifted.
Splash!
With a muffled grunt, she instinctively recoiled as sothing lunged from the water—a grotesque, humanoid fish-like creature with slick black fur.
Its gaping maw revealed jagged red teeth, its scaly body gleaming nacingly.
DADADADA!
Before it could reach Shu Qin, a barrage of gunfire lit up the corridor.
She dodged, twisting midair. As soon as her feet touched down, she spun and fired.
BOOM!
The high-speed 10-gauge Exorcist Shell tore through the creature’s lower half.
The purifying flas from the bullet vaporized the water upon impact, splitting into multiple searing streams that shredded the creature’s body.
Blood and water sprayed into the air, glowing under the flickering lights like a grotesque fireworks display.
Shu Qin’s sharp gaze swept the area. The water ghost, though grievously wounded, wasn’t dead yet. It slithered back into the depths, its remaining body vanishing beneath the waves.
She tensed, then burst into motion, sprinting across the water. Leaping off a wall, she vaulted onto a high platform inside a research lab.
Just as she was about to scan the area, her stomach twisted with dread.
Beneath the surface—countless black shadows lurked, swimming toward her teammates.
"Out of the water—now!"
Shu Qin’s urgent cry rang out.
From his vantage point, Da Lou saw the writhing mass beneath them.
WUUUU!
The Roarer Gatling spun up with a chanical whine, unleashing a storm of tal.
Bullets carved through the water, shattering the surface into chaotic waves. More than a dozen water ghosts were shredded to pieces.
Hearing Shu Qin’s warning, their teammates scrambled for higher ground.
BANG! BANG BANG!
Just as Da Lou kept up suppressing fire, an ominous noise rumbled from the elevator shaft behind him.
It sounded like a swarm—dense, rapid movent, like locusts descending in unison.
The elevator panel’s numbers flickered chaotically, rapidly counting down.
Ding—Ding Ding BOOM!
The elevator plumted.
Suddenly, sothing slamd against the closed tal doors from the other side.
Dents ford instantly, deep claw marks and grotesque indentations pushing outward.
Da Lou and Shu Qin exchanged a look—both realizing at once the horror about to unfold.
"Da Lou, fall back!" Shu Qin shouted.
Da Lou took a deep breath and leaped off the cabinet.
The very next second, the elevator doors burst open.
A putrid stench flooded the air.
From within the shaft, a swarm of grotesque, fur-covered aquatic creatures erupted forth like a dam breaking.
BRRRRRRRRRT!!
The Roarer Gatling roared to life once more.
The elevator hall beca a blood-soaked battlefield, crimson mist blooming with each round fired.
Da Lou retreated while unloading relentless fire, Shu Qin and Lü Chang closing in to support him.
"This way’s blocked! Fall back to Lin Xian!"
Shu Qin's expression was grim as she pressed her earpiece.
"KIKI, Director Ding!!"
Static crackled—then, finally, KIKI’s voice cut through, carried by howling wind.
"Monsters! Be careful, everyone!"
By now, the water had risen to hip level.
KIKI lifted Ding Junyi and flew through the air. She originally intended to take a shortcut through the central atrium—but before she could, a swarm of black creatures burst from the adjacent corridor.
She thrust her hands forward—BOOM!
A shockwave shattered the walls and lighting fixtures, blasting the water ghosts aside.
Without pausing, she changed course, heading toward the cha hangar.
BOOM! BOOM!
The underground research facility trembled violently. The flooding intensified.
Hearing the commotion through her earpiece, Chen Sixuan’s expression tightened.
"Miao Lu, cover them!"
"On it."
SCREEEEECH!
Before Miao Lu could move, the water ahead of her rippled—then, a sea-star-like monstrosity surfaced.
Its central maw, lined with concentric rows of razor-sharp teeth, spewed a jet of inky black fluid straight at Chen Sixuan.
But in that instant—
Chen Sixuan's heart pounded, but her mind remained unnervingly calm.
Everything seed to slow.
She twisted her body, narrowly dodging the corrosive black spray.
Lifting her A33K Heavy Anti-Materiel Sniper Rifle, she took precise aim.
BOOM!
A single shot tore through the creature’s mouth, leaving a gaping, half-ter-wide exit wound.
The battlefield was chaos.
And at the heart of it all—Lin Xian finally completed his scan.
【chanical Scan Complete: T8-Z Vulcan Military Siege cha (Blueprint Acquired)】
The war machine roared to life.
The eerie slug looked soft, yet it suddenly coiled around Lin Xian’s chanical arm, tightening with such imnse force that his chanical joints let out a harsh tallic creak.
"Damn!"
Without hesitation, Lin Xian raised his hand and unleashed a surge of electricity. A scorching arc of lightning shot out, instantly piercing through the writhing creature.
Screeeeech!!
The eerie slug in his grip began struggling frantically, but Lin Xian didn’t waste a second. chanical Heart instantly controlled the Fire God cha, raising its massive combat arm— BANG! WHOOSH! The recoil compensator beneath the main cannon activated. Lin Xian skewered the monster with his Black Rifle and held it up to the fla jet.
BOOM!
A torrent of scorching crimson flas erupted from the high-temperature flathrower, roasting the eerie slug into charred remains on the spot.
Lin Xian casually tossed it aside and stood atop the cha, pulling a corpse out of the cockpit. At that mont, sothing caught his eye—a cha cockpit that made his chanical soul tremble with excitent.
The entire fra was painted military green, equipped with a holographic HUD, an intelligent fire-control panel—the sight made Lin Xian pause for a second.
But there was no ti to waste. He suppressed his excitent, quickly slid into the cockpit, and connected his chanical Heart to the control system. The entire cha felt as if it rged with his body, like wearing a suit of armor tailored just for him.
The Fire God's cockpit was spacious enough that even a 1.8-ter-tall man in a power suit like Lin Xian didn’t feel cramped.
Hiss—
As he pressed the hatch lock, the battle canopy slowly closed, sealing him inside. A deep, chanical male voice echoed in his ears—
[System Booting...]
[Connecting to Pilot...]
[Connection Established. New Pilot Confird.]
A holographic display appeared in front of Lin Xian, providing an ultra-clear view of the outside world—far sharper and wider than human vision. The intelligent fire-control system, radar, and cha status paraters were all displayed neatly before him.
A surge of unmatched security filled his heart.
Lin Xian scanned the cockpit—behind him was a small storage compartnt for supplies and food. To his left was a dical kit, and to his right, a mission terminal.
Using chanical Heart, he linked with the Unified Control System, and with a deep humming sound, the entire cha responded instantly, beginning to move through the water.
Thud! Thud!
The massive cha strode through the flooded corridor, turning toward the passage ahead.
anwhile, KIKI and Shu Qin's teams had regrouped and were fiercely fighting against the surging tide of Water Ghosts, pushing toward the hangar.
“Mr. Chen, Miao Lu, get on the lift and provide long-range cover for them!”
“Got it!”
Chen Sixuan imdiately moved, leading Miao Lu and the others as they waded through the water and climbed onto a large cargo lift.
WHOOM! WHOOM!
Lin Xian piloted the Fire God cha, charging straight toward the Water Ghost Tide. The left-hand main cannon and right-hand Fire God Gatling system were fully unlocked and mounted in place.
“You go ahead—I’ll hold them back!”
KIKI’s eyes lit up as she saw Lin Xian activate the cha. She lifted both hands, unleashing psychic force to levitate everyone out of the water, moving them across the deep flood and toward the lift platform.
"Nice work, kid."
Lin Xian sat in the cockpit, watching the endless horde of black creatures surge toward him. His eyes burned with intensity. He clenched the control levers, pushed them forward, and roared—
“DIE!!!”
WHOOSH! WHIRRRR!
The T8-Z Fire God Military Siege cha’s dual main weapons lifted, the fire-control recoil suppressors and hydraulic dampers on the elbows fully engaged, and the barrels of the Fire God Gatling began to rotate.
In an instant—FULL FIREPOWER!
BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!
Golden streams of tracer rounds illuminated the dark corridor like a devouring storm, shredding hundreds, if not thousands, of Water Ghosts into pulp. Countless bullet casings rained down into the water like a torrential downpour.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
At the sa ti, the left-hand 75mm cha-mounted main cannon fired, unleashing devastating blasts that tore straight through the monster-filled corridor like skewering at on a stick.
Each thunderous shot blasted apart dozens of Water Ghosts in an instant!
The Fire God cha stood in the center of the corridor, its overwhelming firepower suppression completely halting the tide. Steam and smoke billowed from the venting valves and heat exchangers on its back.
Suddenly—
SPLASH!
A transparent Water Ghost Slug leaped from the depths, latching onto the cha’s chanical leg.
These small creatures were invisible to standard sensors!
But Lin Xian’s chanical Heart covered the entire cha—every movent was detected with absolute clarity. While keeping his guns blazing, he raised his right foot and stomped down hard!
SPLAT!
The black slug burst into pulp under the sheer force.
"Lin Xian, there's a BIG one coming from behind!"
KIKI’s voice was tense.
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
The cha’s warning system blared as the corridor ahead shook violently—sothing massive was tearing through the floor and walls, charging at them!
"FALL BACK!"
They were deep underground, and Shijiu Lake’s floodwaters were pouring in fast. Lin Xian couldn’t risk staying any longer.
WHOOSH!
He ceased fire, turned around, and sprinted toward the lift.
With the cha’s suppression gone, the horde of Water Ghosts surged forward like a tsunami, trampling over mountains of their own dead as they chased the team into the hangar hall.
The water level rose rapidly, and more monsters flooded into the area.
RATATATATATA!
The Infinite Train squad opened fire, covering Lin Xian’s retreat.
Just as he stepped onto the lift, KIKI raised her hands and unleashed a shockwave behind them—
BOOM!
Thousands of Water Ghosts sward out from the corridors, flooding the hangar like underwater locusts, their eerie shrieks drowning out all other sounds.
WHOOSH!
The lift platform activated!
The team stood at the edge, firing relentlessly to keep the monsters at bay. Lin Xian engaged the Fire God cha’s flathrower, unleashing a massive firestorm downward.
CLANK! CLANK!
The lift ascended, crushing the monsters clinging to the edges against the upper floor, severing and grinding them into mangled remains.
At last, the gunfire ceased. Silence fell.
"Shu Qin, Chen, report casualties!"
"Lin, no injuries!"
The team, panting, finally caught a brief mont to breathe.
"Stay sharp! Reload and prepare for battle!"
Lin Xian's Fire God cha stepped forward, leading the squad as the massive underground doors slowly opened—
The outside world awaited.
Ding Junyi was protected in the middle of the group. She looked around at the surrounding darkness, her face slightly pale. Chen Sixuan stood behind her.
“Director Ding, you must stay close to Lin Xian.”
“Thank you.”
Ding Junyi reached up and touched the tiny green sprout on her head, her eyes flickering slightly. She actually wanted to help, but she still hadn't figured out the principle behind her ability. Other than blooming a small flower when she got emotional, it seed to have no other effect.
The beams of flashlights swept continuously across the darkness. At that mont, a red Skeletal Horror suddenly charged out of the shadows, lunging straight at the nearest female team mber.
Lü Chang reacted quickly. He raised his light machine gun and fired, sending a stream of bullets that pierced through the male Skeletal Horror’s forehead and out the back of its head, splattering blood and flesh everywhere. The creature collapsed to the ground but still struggled, clawing toward the female team mber’s feet. The teammates on both sides imdiately opened fire, riddling it with bullets in an instant.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
In the blink of an eye, a second, third, tenth… fiftieth Skeletal Horror appeared, surging out of the darkness. A tide of horrors was pouring in, and everyone's weapons roared to life simultaneously.
“Da-da-da! Da-da-da!”
Like a relentless string of firecrackers, gunfire erupted, filling the air with smoke as rounds poured into the encroaching Zombie Horde. The squad, along with the building they were stationed in, had three Roarer K23 Electric Gatling Guns positioned to cover the left, right, and rear. anwhile, the Infinite Train team mbers wielded nothing less than light machine guns and grenade launchers, unleashing overwhelming firepower. For the mont, they managed to hold back the tide of darkness within a range of about ten ters.
At the sa ti, everyone followed closely behind Lin Xian's Fire God cha, moving steadily toward the exit of the test site.
Inside the cockpit, Lin Xian watched the radar screen, locking onto the densest clusters of Skeletal Horrors with the left-hand mounted cannon, providing fire support to relieve the pressure on his teammates. His Fire God Machine Gun in his right hand cleared the path ahead.
KIKI hovered behind the cha. Lin Xian instructed her to handle the mutant swarm closing in from behind, reminding her to conserve energy and only use her psychic shockwave when absolutely necessary—especially when firepower lagged or soone needed cover while reloading.
Shu Qin and Lü Chang guarded the flanks. Both were highly skilled fighters, carrying close-combat weapons in addition to firearms in case any Skeletal Horrors or Eerie Entities managed to break through the gunfire.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Crash!
The team moved with seamless coordination, suppressing the Zombie Horde as they advanced into South Street of the small town. Monsters crawled out of storefronts, shattering glass doors as they erged.
Click! Click!
In the middle of the street, a twisted, conjoined experintal horror shuffled forward amidst the zombies. A burst of machine-gun fire tore it apart in an instant, but grotesque black corpse insects poured out like a tide, swarming toward the team. Bullets sparked as they raked across the ground, but the bugs were too nurous, slipping through every gap.
"KIKI!" Lin Xian shouted. He knew she needed to act.
"I got it!"
KIKI let out a soft cry, flying forward. Her eyes flashed with light as she reached out toward the ground. With a motion like flipping a carpet, she lifted the very surface of the street, sweeping the insect tide and the zombies into the air. The pavent exploded layer by layer, sending dust and debris flying!
Boom!
A heavy sniper rifle thundered.
Chen Sixuan locked her gaze on the darkness above a departnt store and called out to Lin Xian.
"Lin Xian, 11 o’clock—Fog Spider!"
Before she even finished speaking, a massive spider leg stabbed down toward KIKI.
Clang!
A Steel-Slaying Greatsword swept across, intercepting the attack. Da Lou charged in, wielding the sword with one hand, blocking the monstrous limb with precision. Sparks flew as the coarse, steel-like hairs of the Fog Spider scraped against his blade. With a powerful flick of his wrist, Da Lou heaved the sword upward—
Slash! The spider leg was severed completely.
Bang!
A flare round burst open, flooding the sky with white-hot light.
Perched atop the departnt store, a massive green spider lood into view, its six elongated legs striking fear into the team.
Screeeech!
Lin Xian’s left-hand main cannon was already raised, aid directly at the Fog Spider in midair.
Boom!
The spider’s mandibles and two front legs were blown apart in an instant. Thick, dark-green bodily fluids gushed from the wounds as its severed legs tumbled down, crashing against the edge of the building before rolling to the ground.
"Thanks, big guy!" KIKI shouted before darting off to help the rear guard hold back the Zombie Horde.
As more Skeletal Horrors and the Fog Spider were slain, an invisible black mist gathered toward the group. The Infinite Train team mbers exchanged glances, their faces flushing red as an oppressive, fear-inducing presence seeped into their minds.
Ding Junyi noticed imdiately. She pressed her earpiece communicator and spoke to everyone:
"Stay calm! Do not let fear and slaughter consu your reason. Fear is an instinct, but so is courage!"
Lin Xian’s brows furrowed at her words, instantly realizing what was happening. He shouted:
"We're almost out! Hold on!"
Hearing this, many regained their composure, consciously suppressing the tremors in their minds.
"Reloading!"
"Eerie Entity spotted at 3 o’clock!"
"Concentrate fire!"
Screeech!
A mutant leech-like creature lunged from the 3 o’clock direction—only to be snatched midair by KIKI’s ability. The mont it was restrained, layered gunfire tore it apart.
The squad’s synergy subtly strengthened, their unity growing in the face of the endless night.
Boom!
Breaking free from the small town, the Fire God cha’s main cannon blasted open a path through the forest ahead. Lin Xian led the squad forward, their headlights illuminating a hidden trail—the sa one he and KIKI had used to infiltrate earlier on their motorcycles.
Whoosh!
Flathrowers ignited trees along the path, expanding visibility. Zombies continued pouring out, and ammunition was running low. The Roarer Gatling Guns had already exhausted their rounds, forcing Da Lou to charge in with his Steel-Slaying Greatsword.
His speed was terrifying, his entire body radiating crimson battle energy. The massive greatsword sliced through zombies like a hot knife through butter.
A female Skeletal Horror pounced on Da Lou’s shoulder, biting down and tearing out a chunk of flesh—but he didn’t even flinch. Instead, he grabbed her head, roared, and smashed it into the ground, shattering it instantly.
As his wound rapidly regenerated, his eyes glowed red, his strength surging even further.
Boom!
A flare round lit up the test site’s outer periter, revealing towering reflective panels and tal scaffolding.
Crash!
KIKI unleashed a shockwave, shattering the panels. A chain reaction followed—entire sections of the structure collapsed, burying Skeletal Horrors and zombies in waves of destruction.
"Lin Xian, the vehicles are still at the research facility entrance!" Chen Sixuan called out.
"I know! KIKI, Shu Qin, Miao Lu—go start them up! I'll cover you!" Lin Xian commanded.
At this mont, many team mbers, including Lin Xian himself, still had Dark Marks on their bodies, attracting the remaining Zombie Horde from the Clearwater Town Test Site in relentless pursuit. anwhile, only Da Lou and the injured Lü Chang were left behind.
The Research Institute and the Infinite Train were still several kiloters away. Under the shroud of this Dark Night, there was no way he could let these people travel on foot—especially when their ammunition was nearly depleted. Running blindly in the darkness was no different from walking into death’s embrace.
So, he had to lead the team to retreat towards the main entrance, giving KIKI and the others ti to drive the vehicles over.
Boom!
A main cannon shell exploded within the zombie horde, igniting a sky full of fire.
Behind the cha, the Infinite Train mbers had almost run out of ammo. So pulled out their backup pistols, while others simply grabbed short blades and explosives, preparing to face the incoming enemies.
“Argh!!”
Da Lou, drenched in blood, charged into the monstrous crowd. His body was riddled with wounds, and his clothes were torn to shreds. Though his Evolutionary Blood Aura Ability was constantly healing his injuries, the sheer number of zombies was overwhelming. On top of that, there were powerful Human Eeries mixed within the horde. Da Lou was struggling to keep up, continuously getting bitten and clawed, fresh wounds tearing open across his body.
anwhile, Lü Chang’s M566 Light Machine Gun had already run dry. His left hand was bandaged, and in his right, he wielded the GK03 Electric Blade that Lin Xian had personally crafted for him. Sparks of electric arcs flickered as he dashed through the horde, his blade flashing—every swing decapitating multiple zombies in an instant.
From inside the cha’s external vision system, Lin Xian watched this scene unfold, his face grim. He knew that Da Lou and Lü Chang wouldn’t hold out much longer.
“These zombies and Human Eeries… why do they feel even stronger than the ones we faced in Yubei City and Underground City No. 9?”
In the darkness, the Zombie Horde wasn’t just composed of Corpse Fiends controlled by the Black Centipedes—even the ordinary, rotting zombies had grown faster and stronger. Among them, there was even a spiked Human Eerie that blocked Da Lou’s Steel-Slaying Greatsword with its bare hand! When the blade struck its body, sparks flew from its tallic spikes.
Da Lou let out a furious roar and swung again, his blade carving out chunks of flesh as a wave of blood splattered into the air.
Boom!
As Da Lou struggled against the enemy, a loud gunshot rang out.
The spiked Human Eerie’s head exploded right in front of him! Its jaw, lined with razor-sharp teeth, shattered into bloody fragnts, so splashing onto Da Lou’s face. He wiped the blood away and instinctively looked toward the source of the shot—only to see Chen Sixuan standing amidst the chaos, calmly holding her rifle in a perfect shooting stance.
Da Lou imdiately shot her a grateful look.
Chen Sixuan gave him a slight nod before swiftly aiming at her next target.
Every ti she pulled the trigger, her lips moved slightly, murmuring a number:
“Seventeen.”
Bang!
“Eighteen.”
Her targets were the most agile and lethal Human Eeries and Eerie Entities. With each precise shot, she sent another monstrous abomination straight to hell.
Sohow, at so unknown point, the forr Jiang City Foreign Language Teacher had begun radiating the cold aura of a true killer.
The zombie horde grew even fiercer, the pressure was mounting—
BOOM!
The Fire God’s Main Cannon unleashed its final shell, obliterating a swarm of Black Centipedes. Their fur-covered bodies ignited instantly, sending waves of fire cascading across the battlefield.
And then—
A distorted, unnatural screech echoed through the night.
Inside the cha, the radar warning system erupted into a frenzy of alarms!
The external vision system automatically zood in.
Through the flas, a massive, multi-limbed Eerie Entity—several ters tall—darted out from the horde and raced straight toward Da Lou!
The creature looked like an upside-down human, its limbs twisting unnaturally, and its blood-red tendrils moving in a grotesque, inhuman manner. In re seconds, it had already reached Da Lou’s back!
By now, Da Lou was completely soaked in blood, his eyes blazing, his Ability Energy nearly exhausted.
"Da Lou! Behind you!!”
Lin Xian imdiately slamd the hatch release, ready to jump out and assist.
But—it was too late.
One of the Eerie Entity’s long, spiked tendrils lashed forward like a spear, aiming straight for Da Lou’s skull—
"Vile beast! You dare harm my roommate?!"
BOOM!!!
Suddenly—
A massive pillar of crimson flas descended from the heavens, illuminating a hundred-ter radius!
The flaming column slamd into the Eerie Entity, pinning it to the ground!
A silhouette descended from above, its hand raised in a martial stance as fierce, high-temperature flas surged forth.
The Eerie Entity twisted and scread in agony.
The surrounding zombies were instantly incinerated, their bodies reduced to ash.
The shockwave from the blast sent Da Lou flying backward, his Steel-Slaying Greatsword shielding him from the scorching heat.
Lu Xingchen!!
“Ashes shall be your final fate!”
Like a rocket booster, Lu Xingchen hovered above the firestorm, his flas raging uncontrollably.
Below him, the Eerie Entity had already burned into charcoal.
Spreading his arms wide, Lu Xingchen unleashed a wave of scorching embers, then gracefully descended—his boots crushing the charred corpse beneath him.
Crack—
The burnt husk crumbled into smoldering ashes.
Inside the cha, Lin Xian exhaled.
"He must’ve been summoned by Chen Sixuan," he thought.
“Waaah! It’s Fire Bro!!”
“Fire Bro is here!!!”
Among the Infinite Train mbers, a few excited fangirls cheered.
Lin Xian stepped out of the Fire God, glancing at the dramatic Lu Xingchen, who was striking a heroic pose amidst the embers.
He couldn’t help but mutter, “Damn it… why does this guy always make such flashy entrances? This ti, he actually looks cool.”
———
With their retreat secured, KIKI and the rest arrived in off-road vehicles, while Lin Xian and Fire Bro covered the rear.
“KIKI, get the cha into the train.”
“Understood.”
As the train’s heavy doors sealed shut, the Infinite Train’s outer armor deployed its Electric Blade Defense System, ensuring no more creatures could breach their defenses.
Inside, dozens of exhausted survivors finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Xian glanced at their spoils—the Fire God cha, a fully-functional dical Pod, stacks of supplies, and a mysterious containnt unit.
A fire burned in his eyes.
"Finally… we're back. Ti to upgrade our strength!"
