Chapter 74: Chapter 70: Armor 1.0!
Beep beep, beep beep~
The alert sound from the watch rang again.
The sunset gradually fell, and as planned, the building once again drove into the pedestrian street, attracting a large number of zombies’ attention.
anwhile, Lin Xian took advantage of the emptiness on the street to rush into the square on foot, placing a battery pack by the roadside, creating a speaker and several large lights in a circular arrangent around the circular square, with the speaker connected by wires in the middle.
At the sa ti, he followed a fixed route, setting tripwires and animal traps along the way, which he could almost create with a flick of his wrist.
Click, click, click!
In a narrow alley, Lin Xian ran swiftly, using the Wind Gun to clear a few zombies blocking his way, and continuously setting up special traps in corners and narrow areas.
Even at an exit, he placed a spike-filled nail wall, hanging high on the wall above, utilizing gravity to turn the sharply toothed nail wall upside down.
These were all relatively simple devices; Lin Xian’s goal wasn’t to deal with the Abnormal Body with these things, but to buy ti for his escape.
Facing the Abnormal Body proactively for the first ti, he had to be extrely careful and cautious.
After setting everything up, Lin Xian rushed to the roadside, spotting the off-road vehicle of the building charging with a massive horde of zombies from afar.
Squeak~
The off-road vehicle braked suddenly, and Lin Xian imdiately got into the passenger seat, the building hitting the gas, quickly heading towards the outskirts of the city.
To avoid bringing trouble back to the station, the building drove the off-road vehicle up the main road, taking several detours until they shook off a large number of zombies, and then followed a small path back to Yuchi Station.
The off-road vehicle was reloaded, and once back in the carriage, Chen Sixuan and Sha Sha also returned, riding their motorcycles with lights on, far along the railroad tracks.
Upon alighting, Chen Sixuan took off her helt and said, "We didn’t dare to go too far, but we found that special branch railway line, which is indeed newly constructed, and we didn’t have the tools to change the switch."
"No worries."
Lin Xian nodded. "Since it’s a newly constructed railway, it’s probably prepared for the Underground City. We’ll just change tracks when we get there. You guys get on the train first."
Then he and the building continued on installing the remaining carriages’ roof armors, while Chen Sixuan and Sha Sha arranged the items they collected today inside the carriage.
In carriage 1 and 2. Lin Xian used the chanical Heart to create tal storage cabinets, while carriage 3 and 4 mainly carried cargo, originally the supplies of Tang Hai’s fleet, Lin Xian added partitions to prevent the supplies from scattering.
Only after upgrading the armor, Lin Xian could find ti to reorganize the interior of the carriages and renovate the water supply system, etc.
These all required a step-by-step approach.

Lin Xian continued to dismantle and devour freight train carriages while beginning to manufacture armored roofs.
The chanical source points obtained from a dozen-ton heavy freight train carriage were surprisingly similar to those of a car; indeed, it was a pure pile of iron, but Lin Xian’s goal was also rely materials, and such bulky items with simple structures didn’t take too much ti to devour.
[Congratulations, chanical Devouring Skill has been upgraded to level 3!]
At this ti, his chanical Devouring also achieved an upgrade, greatly enhancing the devouring efficiency, capable of dealing with an empty carriage in less than half an hour.

Bang~Bang!
The inside and outside of the vehicle were bustling with repairs, and with the final piece of armor welded on the roof, the "Infinity" was now completely covered in black armor, exuding a formidable presence in the night like a steel fortress!
"Let’s use the armor material from that tank combined with tungsten-titanium alloy for the connectors to cast the Ice-breaking Shield for the front."
Near the front of the Giant Whale 03E heavy-duty gas turbine locomotive, Lin Xian and Building began prepping to install the crucial front shield!
The intense clangor of tal striking tal kept sounding. Lin Xian’s palms emitted a phosphorescent glow, and a massive amount of tal flew out, condensed, molded, forged, and assembled into a unified form!
Clang clang clang! The tal was forged, and a thick Ice-breaking Shield gradually took shape.
The Ice-breaking Shield, weighing over 5 tons, took Lin Xian and Building more than an hour with a crane to finally install.
"Now that we have shielding on the roof, wings, wheels, and front, it truly resembles an armored train."
Lin Xian wiped away so light sweat, looking at the gigantic masterpiece now stationed on the platform, feeling quite a sense of accomplishnt.
Not only was the armor upgraded, but the entire vehicle’s weight significantly increased; Lin Xian guessed that if they encountered the White Giant Monster again, it definitely wouldn’t be able to push it.
However, the downside was that with such significant weight, it would be difficult for KIKI to use her superpower to lift the front vehicle.
Unless her superpower could evolve and upgrade.
"Building, let’s get on and rest a bit."
Checking the ti, it was already past 5 AM; they had been busy for most of the night without realizing.
"How’s KIKI?"
Lin Xian entered carriage 1 and saw that Chen Sixuan and Sha Sha had tidied up the interior thoroughly, instantly feeling more at ease.
With armor fully covering the outside, the living space inside also beca increasingly enriched, making this fortress-like living train co more into shape.
"She still hasn’t woken up."
Chen Sixuan ca over with a towel, continuously wiping the sweat off KIKI’s face, looking worried, "I think she might be having so nightmare, she keeps sweating non-stop."
Lin Xian ca over and reexamined KIKI’s eyes, only to see that ink-like substance slowly enveloping them again, causing his brow to furrow.
"It looks like we still need more Mysterious Blood Essence."
"But we don’t know exactly how much we need..."
Lin Xian sighed deeply, "If we get the chance to obtain more, we’ll keep one to activate the dark radio, or try to exchange with others."
The "Infinity" still had nurous supplies, and exchanging them would relatively be safer and more secure, and perhaps they could also acquire so information from other channels. Otherwise, blindly using Mysterious Blood Essence might not necessarily solve the problem.
Chen Sixuan nodded, looking at Lin Xian,
"When do we act?"
Lin Xian grabbed a bottle of water and gulped down most of it, "Let’s rest for a bit, I need to recover so strength, I still need to fix that vehicle’s capacitor and transforr. It’s safest before daybreak."
His speed attribute was about to break through, and the GK03 electric knife was not yet ready, and there was still so ti before dawn, so for safety, Lin Xian decided to make sure everything was ready before setting out.
