System: My Doomsday Train-Chapter 543 - 285: "It doesn’t sound like a simple project.
Chen Mang looked at the information on the control screen about this batch of Level 19 zombies. These zombies had no special abilities and moved slowly, which was a significant advantage for him.
The mission was simple.
Kill all the zombies within 14 minutes to pass the level.
However—
Currently, these zombies were surrounding the train. In this situation, it was hard to lure all the zombies into the train. To achieve this, it needed a strategy similar to... a hawk catching chickens.
He looked at the "Car-mounted Zombie Perception Shield" on the screen, which was Level 10.
This little gadget was needed.
However, it required 31,000 units of iron ore to level it up to Level 20.
The train only had 8,000 units of iron ore at the moment, which was not enough. But as the saying goes, a dead camel is still bigger than a horse; even with depleted resources, extracting one or two tens of thousands of units of iron ore from the Fixed Star is still feasible.
As Biaozi and others threw nearly a dozen refrigerators into the "Earth Core Melting Furnace" at the front of the train, the iron ore units on the train’s Resource Panel slowly reached 48,000.
Upon consuming 31,000 units of iron ore and upgrading the "Car-mounted Zombie Perception Shield" to Level 20, activating it, the Corpse Tide, which was about to surround the train, suddenly froze in place and lost their attack target. They then ferociously turned their attention to Biaozi and his group, howling and charging at them.
"Time for our performance."
Instead of piloting a mecha, Biaozi rode an off-road motorcycle, excitedly gripping the brake while gently twisting the throttle. The engine roared violently as he shouted, "Everyone, don’t get separated, line the zombies up, and head to carriage No. 15. Lure all the zombies into the Constant Star Train!"
"Be careful, if any zombies fall behind, pull their aggro back timely!"
The plan was simple.
Although these Level 19 zombies had high attack and defense, they were very slow and had no ranged attack capabilities, so theoretically, as long as they weren’t caught, they couldn’t inflict any casualties.
Of course.
This was in theory. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
"Start! Run!"
...
The Constant Star Train quietly sat in front of the abandoned factory, ignored by the Corpse Tide while Biaozi and others, riding off-road motorcycles, circled around the train, attempting to herd all zombies together.
The Corpse Tide gradually contracted.
Their maneuvering space became increasingly limited.
"Now!"
Biaozi quickly glanced at the zombies on both sides, almost within reach, feeling his adrenaline surge, the intense stench of rot overwhelming him. By now, he had reached the rear of carriage No. 15, instantly twisting the throttle and entering carriage No. 15 along with the other guards.
The Corpse Tide followed closely, flooding in.
At the same time, the doors on both sides of carriage No. 15 shut close.
Lucky.
No stragglers; the aggro was well-managed.
"Hiss."
Biaozi glanced back at the zombies in carriage No. 15 starting to damage the train’s interior, gritting his teeth slightly. These zombies blocked those trying to climb in through the back, thinning the aggro, so without hesitation, he pulled out a dagger and slashed Zhang Yi on the arm.
"Ah?"
"Keep running forward but not too fast."
The scent of blood immediately reattracted all the zombies’ aggro, with more zombies pouring in from the rear of carriage No. 15. However, with nearly a thousand zombies, a few got blocked at the back, wandering without aggro.
"Second team, third team, disembark!"
The method was simple.
The second and third teams disembarked, slicing their arms with daggers to lure the wandering zombies back. These were then brought into the train through the open side doors.
...
"23 left."
Chen Mang sat in the chair, his right hand on the control panel button, looking at the 11-minute countdown on the screen, speaking softly.
"17 left."
"9 left."
"Just one more..."
"Not enough time!" Biaozi shouted from inside the carriage. Then, on the screen, Zhang Yi was seen yelling, carrying a refrigerator and jumping off the train roof. Lifting it high, he used the fridge to capture the lone remaining wandering zombie!
He then ran into the train carrying the refrigerator without looking back.
The refrigerator on Zhang Yi’s shoulder was shaking rapidly, cracks forming quickly, but with a defense equivalent to Train Armor, though it couldn’t withstand for long, it wouldn’t break soon.
This works?
As soon as Zhang Yi tossed the fridge inside the train, Chen Mang pressed the "Space Stasis" button on the control panel.
In the next moment—
All the creatures inside the train froze, unable to move, as countless white lights flashed outside, signaling the return of all train residents from Neon City simultaneously.
"Let’s get to work, everyone."
Chen Mang walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the thousands of residents around the train, his voice lighthearted through the Car Sound System.
The outcome was settled.
With 10 minutes left, there was enough time.
Next.
Countless residents rushed into the carriages shouting, and a group of goblins burst through the Gate of Space in carriage No. 11. Everyone did only one task: push all zombies into the two newly created Gates of Space.
The zombies were mainly concentrated from carriage No. 8 to No. 15, not even reaching carriage No. 7, and he had consumed 15,000 units of iron ore, crafting 3 additional Level 1 "Gates of Space" in this carriage.
