Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train-Chapter 869 - 363: Remake (Extra Update!)_3
"What does this have to do with the slowdown of Star Abyss No.5?"
Mochizuki Masashi stood within the light screen, looking at Lin Xian. "According to the Star Abyss data recently synced by the Phoenix Society, globally, aside from Star Abyss No.5 slowing down, the other 12 star abysses are all accelerating their expansion, whereas Star Abyss No.5..."
"Is the closest one to Dawn City!" Lin Xian anticipated what Mochizuki Masashi was about to say and spoke first.
"Correct."
"Then everything becomes reasonable..." Lin Xian stared into the air and chuckled softly, "As I said, the Federation high-level officials in Dawn City, these politicians, can’t be fools. Allowing the Deep Red World to expand Star Abyss No.5, isn’t it like shooting themselves in the foot? So, this is how they forcibly extend their survival!"
"Now I understand why the Phoenix Society had to come back; Dawn City, impressive indeed." Lin Xian murmured, both amused and critical.
"Of course, all this is just my simple speculation," Mochizuki Masashi said calmly, looking at Lin Xian. "However, I am accustomed to examining computation results through the worst possible outcomes. Interestingly, once human intervention is incorporated into the events, the worse the outcomes, often the more reasonable they seem."
"So before Zhou Mingyuan arrived, you had already prepared to confront Dawn City head-on, hadn’t you?" Lin Xian asked.
"I simply deduced backward from the event orientation."
"Predicting the future?"
"It’s roughly statistical, as long as I have enough computational power to list enough possibilities."
Lin Xian chuckled. "You’re boasting; until which day have you calculated?"
"Tonight, at 1 AM," Mochizuki Masashi glanced at Lin Xian smoothly, then turned and left. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
Lin Xian watched Mochizuki Masashi’s departing figure, his expression gradually turning serious.
He glanced at the time; it was now noon, 12 PM, with 13 hours left until 1 AM!
And at this time, Silent City was already near Ningnan Town, under the jurisdiction of Jinhai, within the firepower delivery range of Jinhai City’s defense!
"Damn, if the Phoenix Society enters Dawn City, this time might we have to battle with the army..."
"Dawn City, what exactly are you planning..."
Putting thoughts aside, Lin Xian fully immersed himself in the devouring process. Such a big entity must be completely devoured this time; otherwise, it would be hard to have such an opportunity again. Now, there’s nothing else to do but to watch the situation unfold, so Lin Xian can only focus entirely on upgrading the Mechanical Heart.
16:25, Dragon Transport Ship’s Starry Sky propulsion engine devoured completely.
[Devouring successful, Mechanical Source Points +1500, Mechanical Devouring Skill Proficiency +400!]
19:18, Dragon Transport Ship’s engine room propulsion array group devoured completely.
[Devouring successful, Mechanical Source Points +750, Mechanical Devouring Proficiency +200!]
The sky turned dark, and the vast Silent City halted amidst the mountain wilderness.
The world was shrouded in gray; this place was near Ningnan Town. The flat transportation system began to extend far and wide, but looking around, there were no town lights except for the neon splendor within the Silent City’s metropolis.
Underneath the deck of the Mobile City, hordes of Zombies swarmed like black ants encircling Silent City, spreading over a radius of kilometers, their screeches echoed incessantly, and the humming never ceased.
Inside Silent City, Mochizuki Masashi had already activated the battle red alert earlier. All radar and autonomous attack-defense weapons aboard the multiple-decked Mechanical City were now fully operational with fire control systems, on 24-hour guard duty. Under the various electro-optical observation systems and drone patrols, countless base weapons, high-pressure defense electric nets, anti-climb plasma cutting wires, the edges of the deck on both sides boasted four massive Orbit Shock Star Cannons in low-frequency dormant status. Alongside behind-the-scenes sentries, surveillance personnel, and armed combat personnel, they formed this impenetrable wall-like defense system.
Meanwhile, in docking area 24 on deck 3, a Dragon Transport Ship was silently disassembling and collapsing.
22:36, comprehensive power system, radar system, weapon system completely devoured, leaving almost only a bare structure of the transport ship.
[Devouring successful, Mechanical Source Points +860, Mechanical Devouring Proficiency +230!]
As time quickly passed, Lin Xian’s devouring speed increased. He kept checking the time while monitoring the situation of Infinity.
Over there, Chen Sixuan had already led all Infinity members to complete the combat preparations. The personnel were split by Lin Xian into two groups; the main force had all moved to the upper deck, while Lao Mo and others stayed below. If a retreat from Silent City was necessary, Infinity could get moving anytime.
On the upper deck, Chen Sixuan, KIKI, Brother Huo, Da Lou, and Shu Qin gathered there; Sha Sha was gazing down at the second city below and at the various docking areas. There was now an inexplicable sense of tension spreading.
Most people didn’t know what was happening, they only knew Mochizuki Masashi had triggered a red alert, indicating the possibility of an Abnormal Body attack tonight. Thousands of combat personnel within Silent City were already positioned in defensive zones, while over ten thousand survivors inside also armed themselves. Many convoy teams in the docking area, like Infinity, had moved to the upper deck. After all, remaining in the interior docking area meant doing nothing, as the landing platform had been shut down, and the only option was to resist alongside Silent City.
"Such a stifling feeling." Chen Sixuan looked toward the dark starry sky, where an intensely oppressive atmosphere enveloped everyone. They had all donned their Power Armor, ready to respond to emergencies at any moment.
"What exactly are we up against?" Sha Sha asked KIKI.
KIKI shook his head. "I don’t know either; this time our opponent is the Deep Red World, and these people are capable of anything."
