Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train Chapter 1269 - 489: Mechanical Celestial Body (Part 2)

The Giant Ocean God suddenly shifted its target

The Descent Faction’s strange attitude towards him

Could it be that what Hua Xiaoling has always wanted to tell him is this truth?

"No! Absolutely not!"

Lin Xian’s consciousness quickly escalated, and he was in complete disarray at this moment. He thought of what Chu Yan said about the high-level defectors. If according to Lin Xian’s hypothesis, then all his hopes and pursuits were just a joke. Humanity had no chance of counterattacking. Facing such a collapse of faith, joining the Descent Faction was not defection at all, but rather the right choice to embrace a new civilization.

The more Lin Xian thought about it, the more terrifying it became. He couldn’t accept this fact in his heart. However, the more he rejected it, the more things he couldn’t understand before began popping up, hitting him hard.

"The mechanical celestial body shares the same source with us, so I could transform station 1542 into a Heterogeneous Rubik’s Cube?"

"So my Mechanical Heart can convert Dark Energy into Mechanical Source Points?"

Lin Xian even thought of an even more terrifying idea: that by devouring resources and Mechanical Source Points, he was, in some ways, scanning Earth’s technology for the ’Dark Civilization’, perfecting their ’Mother Ship’ and understanding human technology. And the Mechanical Heart upgrade was self-iterating?!

"No, no, no!"

At this moment, Lin Xian was caught in a frenzy of self-doubt and faith collapse. He felt his consciousness starting to become uncontrollable and blurry, roaming around wildly in the energy beams of the mechanical celestial body, as if he had fallen into an icy sea.

Consciousness plummeted!

Passing through cold, thick void...

Passing through the eerie blue arcs created by gear meshing...

Passing through the dark purple light rivers streaming along the surface of solidified energy pipelines...

Passing through countless Mechanical Manufacturing sequence assembly lines...

Just as Lin Xian’s consciousness was completely out of control and about to fly out from the Black Star Forge into the endless deep space, he suddenly locked onto a direction in the Star Dome Channel of the Black Star Forge.

In that direction was the area where Lin Xian stored mechanical creations or other items, and in one corner of that area, there was a lead box.

Inside lay that Metal Dice!

"The giant was shattered. This thing must definitely be a human creation, indicating that my previous speculation about the existence of a third-party force is highly plausible!"

Lin Xian’s consciousness began to stop dissolving, like a drowning person grasping the last straw. This thought, with thunderous force, split the chaos and despair in Lin Xian’s consciousness!

"No, not highly plausible, but absolutely possible!!!"

Lin Xian’s consciousness began to stabilize. He seemed to regain control and swiftly flew from the Manufacturing Sequence’s Star Dome Channel to retrieve the lead box. Upon opening it, he saw the Metal Dice transforming in an indescribably illusory manner. At one moment, the number 6 faced upwards, then the number 4, repeatedly showing this unobservable shadow state as if time were flowing rapidly.

"6, 4, what do they represent?"

"6:04? June 4th?"

"What does it mean? Is it trying to give me some information?"

No one responded. Lin Xian had no answers.

This Metal Dice left Lin Xian with one last thread of belief, and although the previous notion filled him with lingering dread, this thread of belief was enough to make him question his previous thoughts. Where there is doubt, there is hope.

Tick tock, tick tock~

In the Star Dome Channel of the Black Star Forge, the black Infinity silently hovered. Lin Xian sat in the cockpit of the Giant Whale 03E heavy-duty gas turbine vehicle, feeling the vibrations from the swinging clock. The calculated time showed that he had been trapped in his Black Star Forge for over three months.

The holographic screen was filled with various numbers and formulas. During this time, he tried every way to wake from the Black Star Forge. He even attempted to call out to Chu Yan, Grace, and Viola, but it was all in vain.

As time passed day by day, Lin Xian even used Viola’s computing power to simulate everything he saw: planetary giants, stellar heads, the spatial positions of leaps...

But there was no significant progress. Although Viola’s learning module contained knowledge of high-energy physics, the entire human exploration of astronomical cosmology was very primitive, and he lacked professional equipment. Aside from deducing some mechanical celestial construct mechanics that couldn’t possibly exist on Blue Star, there was no use.

Lin Xian’s mood became incredibly anxious. He sat alone, leaning in the corner of the room, while outside the Manufacturing Sequence ran silently.

Outside the cockpit porthole, 3000 units of "Iron Man Dragon Girl" combat mecha were neatly arranged. This terrifying mechanical army displayed an oppressive sense of power. During these three months, Lin Xian ceaselessly operated the Black Star Forge to manufacture the mecha army, even spending considerable effort refurbishing the Infinity. The damages from the previous encounter with a super vortex were perfectly repaired, and he even built an Orbit Shock Star Cannon on the tractor group.

Originally, Lin Xian planned not to waste any time and began constructing his mechanical army before Crystal Grid Evolution, but little did he expect, this wait lasted three months!

So much time had passed that Lin Xian could no longer convince himself that the time in the Black Star Forge was different from outside, and the idea that he had only slept for ten hours had long vanished amidst sleepless tortures.
