Doomsday: I Build an Infinite Train

Chapter 257 Snowstorm Frequency (12,000 plus more chapters, thanks to that sad leader! Please give me a monthly ticket)

"His brother? Where is he?"

Sun Kai looked towards the ice valley behind him. "He died down there while covering our group on the last day. Did you see the tear on the nano-ceramic window on the head of Unit-01? His brother Chen Lie was torn out by the strange body. In the end, it was Chen Wei who drove this mecha alone to protect the rest of us."

After that, he looked at Lin Xian meaningfully and said, "He has such a temper. He doesn't have a good face for anyone, and he is particularly resistant to superpowers. I heard that after the Apocalypse Day, everyone in his family was killed by a team of superpower thugs. Now his brother is gone too. In addition, he was mentally traumatized after driving the Evangelion Unit-01 alone with its neural synesthesia system. So don't take it personally. You risked your lives to help him, but he had that attitude... I apologize to you on his behalf."

Lin Xian was silent for a moment after hearing this, then he sighed and said, "Captain Sun, you are too polite. I really can't help you much. It seems that we need to think of other ways."

"A person uses neural synesthesia to control a mecha?!" KIKI was very surprised when he heard this: "He is not dead?!"

"He is lucky..." Sun Kai nodded.

KIKI said to Sun Kai: "By the way, didn't you say that Team Leader Yu and the others have a plan to break out? What is it? Aren't they all waiting for rescue from Xilan City?"

Shi Diyuan said at this time: "They seem to be planning to have this mecha send out some signal to attract the monster, and then have this mecha use a self-detonation method to see if it can kill the black bug or seriously injure it, giving us a chance to escape. I'm not sure about the details, but they already had a general direction before you came."

"Quantum dot nanoclusters." Sun Kai said, "This is a device that Unit-01 was originally experimenting with to lure monsters. It is said that these emitted nanoparticles can form an entangled state with the "matrix quantum well" in the monster's lair. It's too complicated for me to understand."

Lin Xian looked at him and thought to himself, you have explained the principle in such a confusing way, and you still say you don’t understand it.

"But there is another plan." Sun Kai kept talking: "It was proposed by Chen Wei. He and his brother were both level 5 common coefficient pilots. Now his brother is dead, and there is a level 3 common coefficient person in the team. Chen Wei wants to take this person with him and try to forcefully start Unit-01 to clear the way for all of us."

"As for rescue... In this situation, there is no information, and we can't even tell the direction in the blizzard. Even if the flying ability user ventures out, he may not be able to reach Xilan City. So this can only be a backup plan. The key is still for us to take the initiative to escape."

Lin Xian nodded when he heard this: "It is definitely not possible to just hope for rescue. There are too many strange entities gathered in this canyon now. Even if there is a rescue, it will be very difficult."

KIKI caught a key piece of information when she heard it. She looked at Sun Kai and said, "Start the mecha? Does that mean this mecha can still be started?!"

Sun Kai felt a little embarrassed as soon as he finished speaking: "I really don't know the technical problems of this mecha, but since you can come up with such a plan, maybe it can be done..."

After that, he immediately said to Shi Diyuan and Lin Xian: "You guys chat first, I'll go report the situation of the exploration."

Having said that, he started to leave.

"Wow, this thing can be started?!" Shi Diyuan looked at Sun Kai's reaction, and immediately looked as if he had suddenly realized something. He immediately turned his head to look at the huge steel giant.

"It shouldn't be that simple." Lin Xian said at this time: "If it is really that simple, then the first option must be this, and it will not be the exploding mecha."

Shi Diyuan opened his mouth after hearing this, and after a while, he sighed deeply, looking at the snowy sky and said:

"What a trouble! I originally thought that Longshan No. 1 had already arrived in Xilan City, so it wouldn't be that bad even if I died here. But now the whole car is still here. Damn it, I shouldn't have come here earlier!"

Lin Xian looked at him and said, "You will come no matter what. You will never be a cold-blooded and selfish person in your life."

"That's right." KIKI also smiled and said, "At Yubei Airport, Taylor from the Federation wanted to shoot at us survivors, but you stood up immediately without knowing the situation. Brother Shi, you have to admit that you are a good person."

"Good man..."

Upon hearing this, Shi Diyuan curled his lips in frustration: "What a bad luck! I am responsible for so many lives, what should I do?"

"There is another way, Brother Shi, I will go with KIKI to take a look at the mecha first."

"Okay." Shi Diyuan turned around and said, "You guys go ahead. I'll go check out the front line. We'll meet up before dark and discuss this."

"Um."

After Lin Xian finished speaking, he immediately took KIKI and walked towards the direction of the huge mecha.

At this time, the interstellar soldiers and busy technicians around did not say anything when they saw it. After all, everyone was on the same boat at this time, and the other survivors were all very curious. It was not only Lin Xian who ran to see the mecha and even touch it, so no one stopped them.

“The closer you get, the bigger it feels.”

When they reached the arm of Unit-01, KIKI stretched out his hand and used his telekinesis to open a large cover to block the wind and snow, allowing the two of them to clearly see the metal lines on the mechanical arm that were full of industrial beauty.

"Humans can create weapons of this level. How could such a civilization lose to these beasts in the dark..." Lin Xian reached out and touched the cold finger bone armor plate, whispering silently.

“The charm of machinery is fascinating.”

Lin Xian opened his eyes slightly, and at this moment, the mechanical heart finally started!

Bang!

The moment the power of the Mechanical Heart touched the steel behemoth in the wind and snow, a silent earthquake seemed to sound in the dark, echoing between the sky and the earth in the deep valley of the Tracamar Ice Valley and the extremely cold vortex!

Lin Xian did not scan the blueprint. He knew that under the circumstances he would not have the time to finish such a large mechanical structure. So he directly let the Mechanical Heart spread on Unit-01 and used his own personal perception to replace the scanning and analysis of the Mechanical Heart, trying to cover the entire Unit-01.

The advantage of doing this is that he can "feel" this industrial behemoth in a very short time and without expending too much energy, and can rely on his current knowledge of machinery to understand the problems of this mecha.

Buzz buzz buzz

The mechanical heart is like a swimming visual sense from the perspective of the sky, flowing from the blade of the foldable high-frequency blade chain sword hidden under the wrist of Unit-01, to the six groups of cylindrical extreme energy capacitors behind the plasma cannon, extending all the way over the shoulder armor. The body that is more than 100 meters high uses multi-faceted carcass joints, and the niobium-titanium superconducting ring of the chest reactor is swallowing and spitting out orange-yellow pulses. When the perception sinks into the magnetorheological fluid transmission cabin of the knee joint, time suddenly collapses into fluid. He witnesses the hydraulic rod drawing a Möbius strip in four-dimensional space, and every friction of the nano bearing is creating a new parallel universe. In his perception, this Unit-01 is standing in its complete posture under the aurora of the ice valley.

“Huh~”

Amid the snow and wind, Lin Xian let out a long breath of cold air.

When he flew through the interior of the Eva-01's synesthesia cockpit, he learned that this mecha had an official name: Pangu.

At this moment, he inexplicably felt a sense of heroism that shook the world and his understanding of machinery seemed to have reached a higher level of thinking.

KIKI used his supernatural powers to shield Lin Xian from the wind and snow, fearing that the raging cold wind would affect his judgment. When she saw Lin Xian open his eyes, she couldn't help but asked in surprise, "So fast, how is it?"

Lin Xian said in a deep voice: "Except for the tears on the left arm and the nano-ceramic windows on the head, the external main structure is basically not seriously damaged. However, I noticed that the tear on the head seems to have destroyed part of the host inside. Perhaps this is a big problem."

KIKI heard this and said, "Are you saying that the main control system might be broken?"

Lin Xian nodded and analyzed: "Just now, in order to scare away the monster tide, Unit-01 activated the nuclear power energy core. When we went in, I was wondering why Chen Wei had to connect to the main control system to activate the energy core. Now it seems that it is probably to manually control the fire exhaust and bridge supply subsystems that were originally controlled by the intelligent brain system..."

"How dare they start this mech?" KIKI was horrified. "In this case, even if there are a few more Level 5 symmetric pilots, it will be useless. So many subsystems rely on experience and manual operation? I'm afraid Chen Wei will have a brain hemorrhage and die before he can even get the mech to stand up."

Lin Xian pondered for a moment. He didn't know how Chen Wei managed to carry the mecha by himself under such circumstances. The entire mecha had at least tens of millions of sensors and controllers, which were integrated into dozens or hundreds of control units of various sizes, and then controlled by an AI intelligent brain. It was complicated enough that the driver only needed to perform common simulation operations. It was hard to imagine what kind of high load the brain and willpower would need to achieve if such a complex system was operated manually.

"So you really can't fix it?" KIKI asked at this time.

Lin Xian smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Impossible, even if I am given enough time, I can only fix those broken mechanical failures. Maybe I can fix the laceration on my left arm, but I can't figure out an AI host."

"What should we do now?" KIKI frowned. "The people in our car are still waiting for us. If we wait until night, they will definitely get into trouble."

Lin Xian looked at KIKI's worried expression and couldn't help but be slightly shocked. This little girl was actually worried about the safety of the whole car...

"Don't worry. If we can't fix the mecha, there are other ways. Before Brother Shi took us to see Team Leader Yu, I told you that I probably can't fix this mecha."

KIKI looked at Lin Xian and said, "So, you have other ideas?"

"Yes, but..."

Lin Xian frowned and looked at the time on his watch. He concentrated on thinking for a moment, then hooked his finger at KIKI: "Hurry, I need you to do me a favor."

…

It was 15:00 in the afternoon. The wind and snow gradually grew stronger. The defense line on the Terracamar Ice Valley formed a narrow arc around Unit-01. In addition to the support from branches like Stilyuan, there were also entire convoys that came out in full force. These people were originally heading towards Xilan City, but now they were all in this predicament.

On the Longshan No. 1 all-terrain drive train, Shi Diyuan and a group of brothers were preparing ammunition. Ning Jing counted the number of people and walked towards Shi Diyuan with a gloomy face.

"Old Shi, no matter what, we have to charge before dark. There are so many people on Longshan No. 1, and now only Lu Yong is looking after it. If we encounter a monster tide, it will probably be dangerous."

Shi Diyuan put a chain of ammunition into the drum, paused, and said, "Team Leader Yu and Captain Sun said they are urgently discussing a plan. They will call everyone together later. We must try before dark. However, if the big black bug is not intimidated by this mecha, we really don't have any other way."

"In addition to the support from Xilan City, didn't Fat Cat say that the people from the armed company also went down to the Ice Valley to find other ways out?" Ning Jing said anxiously.

"It's better to wait for rescue."

Shi Diyuan shook his head and said, "There are ravines and gullies under the ice valley, and no vehicles can pass through. Even if there is a road, we can't march alone in the blizzard. Without these vehicles, we can't survive more than 5 miles."

Ning Jing sighed when she heard this, then she looked at A Bai and said

"Abai, can you still sense the monster aura on us?"

Ah Bai was sitting in the corner of the carriage. Hearing this, he looked up at everyone and then said in a low voice: "After we came into contact with the monsters... we all have some on our bodies."

Ning Jing looked down at her body, her eyes slightly stern: "What did Captain Lin say? He is a mechanical mutant. Is there any way?"

"Hey."

Shi Diyuan stood up and said: "He must have a way. This guy has rescued tens of thousands of people. This difficulty may not be a problem for him. But... then again..."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Ning Jing seriously and said, "Whether Longshan No. 1 can get out of the snowstorm may depend on him, so no matter what the situation is tonight, we must find a way to ensure that Brother Lin is sent out safely so that the people on the two trains can survive."

"You too, understand?"

He spoke sternly to the other brothers, and everyone's faces became serious when they heard his words, and they all nodded without hesitation.

In the wind and snow, Lin Xian stood alone under Pangu Unit-01, looking up at the huge nuclear-powered turbine engine, feeling the hot breath driving away the coldness around him, and he seemed to be about to be swallowed by the exquisite vortex.

"Handsome guy, what's wrong? Are you in trouble?"

A sharp voice sounded, and Lin Xian turned around and found that it was Qian Dele, who was wearing a mink coat, who was looking at him with interest.

Lin Xian looked behind him, then looked at Qian Dele, and said in surprise: "You are so fast, when did you stand behind me?"

“Just now.”

Qian Dele swept his eyes over Lin Xian, then slowly looked at Unit-01: "Everyone thinks that only this big thing can save us. Do you think so too?"

"It's normal to have such thoughts. With such a powerful weapon behind you, anyone would want to take shelter under a big tree."

"Cool down? Haha, it's freezing cold~"

Qian Dele tightened his coat, looked at Unit-01 and said slowly, "But after so long of fleeing, this is the first time that a human weapon can make those ugly monsters feel afraid. This Emperor Project makes us survivors feel that humans are not so insignificant anymore."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xian said bluntly: "Do you know the Dark Mark?"

Qian Dele looked at him blankly, waiting for him to speak.

"We have discovered that the dark entities have a language or method of communication and hunting, which can leave an invisible mark on the prey. This mark will make us a beacon in the dark forest after dark, and thus be hunted by other hunters around us."

"Interesting." Qian Dele said with interest, "It seems that these monsters are quite united."

"Huh?" Lin Xian was a little stunned. It was the first time he heard someone pay attention to this point, and he couldn't help but start discussing this issue with Qian Dele.

"Is this your first reaction?"

Qian Dele looked somewhat proud, and he said in a nostalgic tone: "Before the apocalypse, my biggest hobbies were shopping and hunting. As a professional hunter with a legal gun license, I have a habit of not letting other hunters take the prey that I like."

"Why?" Lin Xian asked.

"Why is there any reason for this..." Qian Dele smiled faintly and looked at Lin Xian: "Hunters enjoy hunting itself and don't care much about the harvest, just like fishermen enjoy the process of catching fish. If he likes to eat fish, he can just go to the supermarket and buy one. What's more... I don't like eating meat either."

"In addition to fishing, the fisherman also likes to feed fish, but he doesn't like to eat fish." When Lin Xian heard Qian Dele's words, he remembered that when he was in college, he often skipped classes to go fishing. He was well-equipped and had great scenery, but he almost always caught nothing. For this reason, his roommates often treated him to fish in order to make fun of him...

“Hehehe~” Qian Dele smiled and said immediately: “Hunters never share their prey, so this dark mark you mentioned doesn’t look like a relationship between hunter and prey.”

"More like... a hunt?"

Lin Xian's expression was slightly stern when he heard this: "I have always believed that the purpose of the dark weird entities is not simply to devour their prey, they just want us to disappear."

"So when I heard you say that the big black worm didn't dare to approach here, I was very puzzled. After all, it seemed to be fearless when facing those monsters in the past, but why was the giant worm afraid? Was it just because Unit-01 killed one of its kind?"

Qian Dele frowned: "Monsters also tend to seek benefits and avoid harm. This is normal."

Lin Xian lowered his head and was busy making things. He looked up at the huge Unit-01 and replied calmly, "Maybe."

Qian Dele crossed his arms and looked at Lin Xian with deep eyes. Then he looked back and said, "Let's go. Team leader Yu invites the captains of several of our teams to discuss a breakout plan. Although there are only two of you, I think it is necessary for you to participate."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Lin Xian looked at the time on his watch and looked a little serious. At this time, in the snow, a slender figure fell from the sky, wrapped in an invisible telekinetic shield. KIKI's face was red from the cold. She landed on the ground and said to Lin Xian:

"nailed it."

"Let's go, there's not much time left." Lin Xian nodded, and the two of them hurried towards the combat tent.

As soon as I walked into the combat tent, a feeling of warmth came over me. At this time, including Shi Diyuan, Ning Jing, Qian Dele, Sun Kai, and the leaders of five other convoys gathered here. Together with Yu Yuheng and other members of the Emperor Project team, there were more than thirty people standing in the entire tent. The atmosphere was a bit heavy because everyone could feel that danger was approaching.

The frequency of the Snow Demon's attacks is getting higher and higher. They can hold out for one night, but not necessarily for two nights. Now everyone knows that they must fight before dark!

Lin Xian and KIKI walked in, and everyone looked at them. Shi Diyuan and Ning Jing nodded to them, and Captain Sun on the side also greeted them with his eyes. Then Lin Xian and KIKI walked from behind the crowd to a corner.

At this time, Lin Xian noticed that the driver named Chen Wei was also sitting on a work chair not far behind Yu Yuheng. He was wearing a military coat and had a stern face. There were many sensors and infusion tube wires wrapped around one of his arms, and he seemed to be receiving some kind of treatment.

Seeing that everyone was present, Yu Yuheng called Sun Kai over and said directly:

"It is 15:20 now. There are still 2 hours and 40 minutes until dark, plus or minus 10 minutes. I am calling everyone here now to discuss our plan to break out urgently."

Sun Kai also stood up and said, "Everyone is here to support us in this difficult situation, so I will make it clear that no matter which plan we use, our armed company will be responsible for clearing the way for the first camp."

“Hey!”

Upon hearing this, Shi Diyuan interrupted him with a choke, raised his hand and said proudly: "No need, unity is the most important, and we should proceed from reality in everything. My train has the thickest armor, so we must open the way. If we have armor, we should use it first. There is no need to let the brother troops block the way!"

"Yes! What are you afraid of? I only have one life left."

"Say this as if we are afraid of death..."

The people from several other convoys also spoke up immediately. Since they had all chosen to come to support, none of them were selfish. Although it had only been two days, this group of people had similar interests and quickly became friends. No one would care about these things at this time.

"Let's talk about the plan first." Qian Dele crossed his arms and interrupted everyone's discussion in a high-pitched voice: "It's a bit early to talk about this now."

Yu Yuheng raised his glasses and said seriously

"We have prepared two plans. One is to break out from the front, and the other is to abandon the position and move from the rear of the ice valley."

"Let's talk about the latter first."

Yu Yuheng looked at Sun Kai, who nodded and said to everyone, "We went to the Ice Valley to explore three times and found a glacier tunnel at the bottom, about 3 kilometers long, which can lead directly to a gentle slope of the Ice Valley in the north. I observed that we can go up to the snowfield near Yaze Lake from there and then go around. The only problem is the vehicle. If we use this plan, we can only use small snowmobiles and must give up large vehicles, and then move together towards Xilan City."

"We still have more than a dozen small snowmobiles left in our Emperor Project team. They are all fully enclosed, which means we can travel light. We have traveled three times and have not encountered any strange entities. This is a relatively secret evacuation plan."

Yu Yuheng also added at this time: "The advantage of evacuating light is that we can escape quickly, and without strange bodies, the safety factor will be higher. The only problem is that there will be a risk of encountering strange bodies after entering other areas. In this case, it can only be regarded as a gamble."

"What about a frontal breakthrough?" Ning Jing asked at this time.

Yu Yuheng said directly: "The plan for a frontal breakout is this."

As he spoke, he picked up a mobile terminal and operated it. At this time, a demonstration diagram of a device appeared on a combat screen behind him.

"This device is called a quantum dot nanocluster resonance generator. It is a form of energy that we discovered based on the cold dark basic particles of the Dark Invasion. We currently believe that these emitted nanoparticles can cause resonance in the perception system of the strange body. Simply put, it simulates the communication method of monsters to attract monsters. This was originally one of the experimental projects of our Emperor Plan. It has been proven to be effective in previous operations. After we launched this nanoparticle on the target strange body, the Chen Wei brothers encountered a large-scale attack by strange bodies when they drove Unit-01 into the night. So we repaired this device overnight and prepared a set of self-running programs to attract those snow monsters or the black worm."

KIKI, who was standing in the corner, frowned upon hearing this. She whispered to Lin Xian, "Hey, why does it feel like his description doesn't seem like he attracted a strange entity, but rather like he was marked with a dark mark?"

"It should be the Dark Mark." Lin Xian's expression was stern at this time: "It's a pity that I didn't bring the Hell Black Chrysanthemum with me..."

…

"What do you mean?!" After hearing what Yu Yuheng said, Shi Diyuan, who was standing in the front, frowned and said, "Why don't I understand? If we attract those monsters, where should we run to?"

"That's right. Let me first talk about the technical principle of this plan. First of all, this device has not yet been tested unmanned. Whether it is feasible in this case is still questionable, so we have made multiple contingency plans."

KIKI whispered to Lin Xian, "Sure enough, I thought they really used the unmanned device to attract the monsters. Now, it seems that the Chen Wei brothers were marked with the Dark Mark during the battle. This plan should not work."

"Wait a minute, wait until he finishes speaking." Lin Xian said in a low voice.

At this time, Yu Yuheng asked a staff member to bring up a glass container with a ball of green juice in it and a small device on top of the container.

"This is the blood of the dead black worm. We extracted a portion of the active part. There is a volatilization device on it. In the past two days, everyone should have discovered that the black worm dared not approach here. Our speculation is the same as yours, so the second preparation of this plan is to bring the blood of the black worm to create the same deterrent force and add an extra layer of insurance for our breakout."

"Finally, the third preparation."

Yu Yuheng stepped forward, took out the second glass container, and said, "We made two copies of this device, so we will split into two groups for this breakout!"

"Divide the troops into two groups?" Qian Dele frowned.

"That's right." Yu Yuheng nodded, his eyes firm as he said, "Assuming that neither the first nor the second preparations work, then if we split our forces into two groups, we can ensure that at least one team will have a chance to avoid encountering the black worm."

"In other words, half of the people might survive!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's face changed.

"My goodness, this sounds a bit tragic." A leader of the caravan wearing a thick hat said in panic.

Yu Yuheng shrugged. "There is no better way at the moment. The resonance generator and the blood of the black worms are only theoretically effective. If they work, both teams may survive. As a scientific researcher, I have to think from a practical point of view. If we split the troops into two groups, the chances of survival will be higher."

His words immediately made many people fall into deep thought. During the escape, if anyone encountered the black worm, it would basically mean total annihilation, and it would be almost impossible to survive in this blizzard.

"Is there no other plan? What about the support from Xilan City?" someone asked at this time.

"I suggest that we don't have too high expectations for support." Yu Yuheng said calmly: "From here to Xilan City is at least 1,000 kilometers. Even for flying ability users, it is difficult to survive in this extremely cold blizzard. Even if nothing unexpected happens and no strange bodies or troubles are encountered, it is still a question whether we can find the direction in this environment, not to mention whether the reinforcements from Xilan City can stop the large-scale monster tide when they arrive here."

"Our Imperial Group's armed company has strong firepower and is equipped with several assault machines, but now it has been almost wiped out, with less than 20 people left. It's less than three hours until dark. We should take the initiative to attack instead of waiting for rescue. After dark, our survival rate will be greatly reduced. I'm sure everyone is aware of this."

After saying that, Yu Yuheng looked at Qian Dele and said, "I know that the person with special abilities is your subordinate, but I'm sorry, we can't just sit there and wait in this situation."

"Although I believe my friend can definitely make it to Xilan City, the problem is that it is indeed difficult to get there before dark." Qian Dele put his hands in his sleeves and said in a flat tone.

"Then it seems that the only option left is to break out." Shi Diyuan crossed his arms and looked at Sun Kai: "Captain Sun, let's forget about moving down to the Ice Valley. Abandoning heavy firepower and heavy armored vehicles, even if we can leave this Ice Valley, I don't think we can get far."

"Yes." Ning Jing also agreed, "Besides, you are in small team mode. Once our main force moves, the monsters may catch up immediately. By then, we will not even have a chance to resist and will be buried under this ice valley."

In fact, many people did not consider the covert transfer method as a plan at the beginning. After all, for these survivors, armor and firepower are the source of their sense of security.

Moreover, although the people here have no concept of the Dark Mark, they all know how those monsters could possibly fall into the hollow city plan? ?

Sun Kai nodded when he heard this. He was naturally aware of everyone's concerns, so he said

"Then let's break out. There are currently two routes. One is to go north along the original route, and the other is to go around from the west. You can choose the two routes. Our armed company will be in charge..."

"There is another plan!"

Before Sun Kai could finish his words, a loud voice suddenly interrupted him from behind.

Everyone looked over and found that Chen Wei had stood up and walked over to them and said in a stern voice: "There is another plan that can keep all of you alive."

Yu Yuheng immediately stepped forward to stop him and said in a rejecting tone: "Chen Wei, I've already said that your plan is not feasible from a technical verification perspective."

"What's not working?"

Chen Wei pulled up a young man from the technical team and said, "Xiao Yang is a level 3 common coefficient driver. I was able to drive by myself before, and now Xiao Yang can help me process the transfer signal, so I can definitely drive it!"

Yu Yuheng argued loudly, "The reason you didn't die in the previous 46 minutes was because you were lucky that the blizzard rushed into the cockpit and didn't burn your brain. Plus, there was a secondary host supporting the weapon program. You're lucky to be alive until now!"

"Since the mecha has to explode, you might as well let me do it. At worst, I can take that bug with me. It's better for the two of us to die than to let two teams gamble their lives!" Chen Wei roared.

After saying that, he stared at Yu Yuheng, his eyes stern as he said word by word: "I know that the emperor plans to treat me as an important asset, but don't you know what the highest principle of our Phoenix Society is?"

Yu Yuheng's expression kept changing as he was stared at by him. He raised his glasses tremblingly and said hysterically: "I told you that this is a technical issue, not an asset-based one. If you do this, you will only..."

Chen Wei grabbed Yu Yuheng's collar, gritted his teeth, and said slowly: "I'm not afraid of death, I'm only afraid of living a cowardly life."

For a moment, the atmosphere in the tent turned cold.

"Alright, alright, stop talking."

At this moment, a light female voice interrupted the quarrel between the two. Everyone looked over and saw KIKI standing in the corner with her arms folded across her chest. She said to Chen Wei:

"Although you have a bad temper, you are actually very strong-willed. I admire that. But I still have to tell you that he is right. Your plan will accomplish nothing except passion. It will only lead to your death."

Chen Wei looked at KIKI coldly: "What did you say!?"

"I said, you will just die in vain." KIKI was not afraid of his gaze at all, and said quickly and confidently: "From a technical point of view, in addition to the damage to the mainframe of the intelligent computer, this mecha has another problem, which is the extreme cold. It has been shut down for more than 24 hours. Except for the power core, the rest of the engine including the drive and joint hubs need to be restarted. Not only does it need to be operated as a whole, but it also needs to be de-iced! To start it under this situation is several times more difficult than your previous insistence on fighting in the driving state."

"To put it bluntly, even if two of you were to take the plane, you probably wouldn't even be able to stand up in an hour. Your brains would have been burned to ashes by the fault feedback of tens of millions of neural contacts, not to mention a host of other problems. Since you've driven it yourself, you must know how difficult it is to drive. Are you sure that taking that inexperienced person with you can solve the problem?"

KIKI’s words immediately left Chen Wei with no way to refute. He opened his mouth and looked at Yu Yuheng in front of him.

Yu Yuheng broke free from his hand, raised his glasses and said, "I have told you many times that the reason why I did not consider your plan was entirely due to technical considerations. No one knows the problems of this mecha better than me. If you two go up, you will only die in vain and waste our time."

"And you, don't be happy yet, your plan doesn't work, it's just empty talk."

Just when everyone thought the argument was over, KIKI suddenly turned her attention to Yu Yuheng, leaving everyone a little confused.

"Me?" Yu Yuheng asked in surprise.

Everyone looked at KIKI with questioning eyes. Yu Yuheng's plan was logically feasible, and he had prepared three emergency plans. Although it sounded tragic, it was indeed a feasible plan.

When KIKI heard Yu Yuheng's question, she sighed, "You probably rarely face strange entities in your work, and you haven't experienced such dangerous moments, right?"

Yu Yuheng was a little indignant: "What do you mean? Are you asking me about experience?"

“It’s not a question of experience, it’s a question of common sense.”

KIKI raised his finger and said, "No matter what device attracts monsters or what blood they have, you have overlooked the most important issue. These monsters have eyes, noses, and ears. They can lock onto us in the dark, and they even have a certain amount of intelligence. We have encountered strange bodies countless times in the dark, and we either ran away, died, or were killed by us. But have you ever seen these monsters miss?"

Yu Yuheng's expression froze when he heard this, and Chen Wei stared at him slightly.

"Also, your plan of splitting up into two groups is even more disheartening. You know, even if all of us put together, it's hard to stop their attack by relying on our positions. How can we escape if we split up? Do you know how many snow demons and snow monsters there are in this snowfield? Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions? Compared to these monsters, our number is not enough. Let alone splitting up into two groups, even if we split up into twenty groups, we will still face an endless tide of monsters, and we will only die faster."

KIKI continued in a questioning tone: "Also, there is another black worm corpse three kilometers away. How can you be sure that there is only one black worm underground?"

After hearing this, Yu Yuheng was speechless, while Shi Diyuan, Qian Dele and others all looked gloomy. These people were all leading large convoys, so they naturally understood the problem with this plan very quickly.

"So according to you, all we can do is stay here and wait for rescue?" Chen Wei asked directly in a stern voice. KIKI's words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing everyone's hope. They had already started to become negative before any action was taken, which was very unacceptable to him as a soldier.

"Sister KIKI, Brother Lin, do you have any other ideas?" Shi Diyuan noticed Lin Xian and KIKI standing silently on the edge of the crowd from the beginning. When he saw KIKI rejected all the plans, he immediately became alert. He looked at Lin Xian with an anxious tone.

"There must be a way." After KIKI said this, everyone's eyes changed immediately.

Seeing that KIKI criticized both Yu Yuheng and Chen Wei in one phone call, Lin Xian also stood up and said to Yu Yuheng: "Team Leader Yu, there is one thing we all agree on, that is, as official members of the Phoenix Society, you put your own safety aside first and are willing to stand in front of us survivors to face difficulties. Your courage and belief are worthy of recognition."

Yu Yuheng was poured cold water by KIKI on his carefully planned plan. His face was a little uncertain. After hearing Lin Xian's words, he said in a weaker tone.

"If you have a better solution, just tell me directly. Don't flatter me. She is right. I am just a technician and I really lack experience..."

Lin Xian nodded, looked at the time, and without beating around the bush, he stood up and said in a stern voice:

"Actually, the plan is very simple. We just need to rush out before dark."

As soon as the words fell, the tent suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at Lin Xian with complicated expressions, somewhat unbelievable.

What is this plan?

Chen Wei's eyes were filled with anger at this moment. He saw Lin Xian standing out with confidence and thought he had some elaborate plan, but the result was just like this?

Just charge forward, isn't that nonsense? If we can just charge forward, why are we still hiding here?

At this point, even Shi Diyuan, who had always supported Lin Xian, was a little confused. He looked at Lin Xian inexplicably and said, "Uh, Brother Lin, is this the end?"

"That's not the case." Lin Xian didn't have time to play dumb. He spoke directly and decisively with a serious expression.

"First of all, I want to remind everyone, maybe you have forgotten something very important, that is, it is daytime now, and the time is 15:20."

Lin Xian looked at his watch and continued, "All snow monsters come out from the snow and cannot be exposed to the sun for a long time. They will be more active in a big snowstorm. This also shows intuitively that light is very dangerous to strange bodies, including the giant worm. It came out twice and didn't move for a long time before quickly burrowing into the ground. The parts exposed to the light would also be hit by our firepower and cause a piece of blood and flesh to fly. Doesn't this explain the problem?"

"Of course we know this." Qian Dele crossed his arms and said proudly, "After dark, these monsters don't move like this."

"And then?" Yu Yuheng looked at Lin Xian and frowned.

Lin Xian looked at everyone who seemed confused, walked up to them, took the mobile terminal from Yu Yuheng, and threw it directly to KIKI.

"Girl."

"Okay, right away." KIKI cooperated tacitly and started to operate immediately.

At this time, the screen behind Yu Yuheng projected a picture, which was a temporary terrain curvature map.

Lin Xian pointed to one of the directions: "We are now in the direction of the Trakama Ice Valley near Yaze Lake. The extremely cold weather will cause the cold air to be close to the ground, which is the so-called inversion layer. In addition, the extremely cold vortex clouds will block the light at noon, so the light will be very weak. However, in the afternoon, after the inversion layer dissipates, the sun will shine obliquely to the west, and with the diffuse reflection of the snow layer, the light will reach its strongest point of the day."

"Can you be more specific about this time..." Lin Xian looked at his watch again: "It should be between 16:00 and 17:00. We will break through during this time and have the best chance."

"snort."

Chen Wei was very impatient when he heard this: "This is totally a joke. The dark clouds above our heads are covering the sky and blocking the sun. Can you really make the sun listen to you?"

Yu Yuheng's face darkened when he heard this: "It's snowing hard right now, and the weather conditions are unpredictable. I understand what you mean, but the light..."

"Light, I can handle it." Lin Xian interrupted him.

When these words were spoken, everyone looked surprised.

"Captain Lin." Sun Kai looked at Lin Xian inexplicably: "What do you mean by that?"

Without waiting for everyone's reaction, Lin Xian turned his hand and immediately sent a gravitational lens into the tent!

Buzz!

Suddenly, a tiny space vortex appeared in the tent hall. The light in the room was instantly distorted and layered. Even all the computer screens were disturbed by some kind of signal energy. Curved snowflakes began to appear on the screens, all heading in the direction of the space distortion.

Swish, the next moment, everything returned to normal.

"My ability can change the light in the sky for a short period of time."

Lin Xian's words exploded in the crowd like a blockbuster bomb. At this moment, Chen Wei and Yu Yuheng's faces changed suddenly and they looked at Lin Xian in astonishment.

"Huh?? You can control the weather?"

"It's not that exaggerated. It's just to enhance the light. It's usually of no use, but these monsters like to come out during the day, so I can be of use to them." Lin Xian didn't want to discuss his gravitational lens too much. He himself didn't understand it very well, so he said modestly.

"In addition, there is another very important issue that you have not considered. Before we came here, there were no snow monsters around Yaze Lake, but they gathered here in large numbers. The specific reason may be related to this mecha or the advanced weird body. But if we leave, these monsters will definitely continue to chase us. We can't run to Xilan City in two hours, so even if we escape, it will be difficult for us to escape the attack of these monsters without support."

"But my Infinity and Brother Shi's Longshan No. 1 are parked on the northern track about 100 kilometers from here. Now all the trains are ready to cover us with firepower. As long as we can rush to the target location, we can get greater firepower support. If we can meet up and relay the relay, we will have a chance to hold on to Xilan City after nightfall."

"etc!"

Yu Yuheng was full of questions at this time. He was shocked and puzzled and said to Lin Xian: "The signal here has been blocked by the blizzard. How can you contact the convoy a hundred kilometers away???"

"Yeah, this guy even contacted Longshan No. 1, how come I didn't know?" Shi Diyuan muttered in the crowd.

Ning Jing beside him suddenly realized something and immediately looked delighted!

"Who said I can't be contacted?" Lin Xian took out his communicator in front of everyone.

"Hello, Teacher Chen, is Brother Huo ready to lead the way?" He pressed the communication button and contacted Infinity.

“Crack…sizzle”

"Lin Xian, we are all ready!!" After a period of signal noise, Chen Sixuan's voice rang out in the quiet tent! !

Rub, rub, rub!

Lin Xian raised his hand and created a signal pole in front of everyone. He weighed it in his hand and said, "I am a very cautious person. When I came out to look for Brother Shi, I was afraid of getting lost, so I left a signal pole every few hundred meters."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Yu Yuheng who was stunned at the side and said, "Team Leader Yu, I have something to report to you. My nearest signal tower is two kilometers away. Because I encountered a monster wave on the way, I didn't have time to bury it in advance, so I just borrowed the overclocking signal socket device of Unit-01 to make a bridge system to help me transfer the signal."

Yu Yuheng's glasses slipped off his nose and he opened his mouth dryly: "You...you...what...when?"

Lin Xian looked at KIKI, and Yu Yuheng also looked at the girl beside him. KIKI squinted and smiled at her: "Don't worry, I didn't peek at your secrets~"

"Good boy!" Shi Diyuan immediately cheered loudly: "So you already had a backup plan, hahahaha."

Qian Dele was also looking at Lin Xian in amazement at this moment, and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up: "This handsome guy is indeed extraordinary."

"This is a good plan." A big brother from the convoy looked excited.

"It's definitely worth a try!" everyone began to agree.

Sun Kai also looked at Lin Xian, with a look of surprise, and even his breathing quickened. The whole team gathered to break out, taking into account the terrain and weather, combined with the daytime light conditions. The most important thing was that they solved the problem of support that they had not been able to solve before. Although there is no perfect plan, Lin Xian's arrangement at this time is definitely the best plan to allow this group of people to survive!

At this moment, the atmosphere in the entire tent suddenly became high and warm because of Lin Xiantong's comprehensive and thoughtful actions, and a real hope of survival began to grow wildly in everyone's hearts!

At this time, outside the Tracamar Ice Valley, biting cold winds and heavy snow continued to blow. On the snowfield, every few hundred meters there was a gray signal pole inserted into the deep snow. The green signal lights flickered like breathing, like electronic beacons in the white ocean, transmitting the frequency of the blizzard!
