Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train Chapter 800 - 348: Mechanical Squad (Special Release: 10,000 Views Combo + Bonus - )

20:35, the 14th inner tide begins.

The mountain city is shrouded in silent darkness, quietly decaying. An eerie rustling comes from the dark alley, with the occasional silhouette of a multi-legged creature flashing by. In the underground morgue of the Central Hospital in White City, the exploration team of Joint Train and several key members from Silent City are nervously discussing plans.

Through the decryption of more and more information, the current situation becomes clearer and more severe.

Lin Xian guessed it right; the memory units obtained from the previous two transport ships were all fodder, with key mission information erased. Apart from finding some personality awareness and memory knowledge, they are useless.

The missile retrieved by Lu Xingchen at the last moment is the real key.

Through ACS plus Grace’s analysis, followed by Mochizuki Masashi’s information processing, a disaster catalyzed by the fervent Descent Faction is gathering in the sky storm of Star Abyss No. 5.

Based on Silent City’s possibly original information, the Deep Red World conducts brutal bloody human experiments through fungal mediums, and through White City’s Nest Research Institute, obtained a live tissue sample named "Dark Erosion Cell (Umbra-Cell)."

Currently, they do not know the purpose of Deep Red World’s cultivation of this live tissue; they only know that certain experiments seem to have alerted the Abyss Demon. If the sewage treatment plant’s [Major Cleansing Device] activates, unquestionably, the entire White City, including Silent City, will be affected. If they are all branded with Level 5 markings, Mochizuki Masashi’s plan of containment and evacuation by sacrificing a Floating City is likely to fall through.

Hence, what they need to focus on now is not how much crucial experimental data was extracted from the Deep Red World memory units or the potential impact of the Dark Erosion Cells.

At this moment, their only consideration is escape!

"So, we need to enter the sewage treatment plant and disable their so-called cleansing device within an hour after the tide ends at 21:05, followed by evacuation?"

Qian Deli dismissively pulls away a body bag from the morgue table, then leans on the table edge, speaking in a doubtful tone.

"It’s not realistic to complete the transfer of Joint Train and Silent City within one hour, right?"

"Impossible," Qian Suxun directly states: "Lin means to disable that cleansing device, thus gaining time for the next ebb. As long as we haven’t been marked as high-level, transfer remains possible."

"What have these guys been up to that they can provoke the Star Abyss Beast?" KIKI snaps irritably: "Being trapped in Star Abyss is already troublesome enough, yet these guys are truly hateful!"

Chen Sixuan’s expression is relatively calm at this point: "But, wasn’t it previously mentioned that there’s the fishtail giant statue above the sewage treatment plant? How do we solve this problem?"

"I remember you mentioned that observation is the issue, so isn’t it fine as long as we don’t look at it?" Monica also speaks up.

"In fact, we’ve only dealt with this thing once," Tianye Lan says, arms crossed: "However, Shinji mentioned that since they have a way to send living people inside, it indicates there’s certainly a method."

"Live people? Is this... still considered alive?" Ning Jing frowns, watching the clone in the rocket’s frozen chamber ahead, its brain connected to the brain-machine and white mycelium, limbs remodeled. Adding to the high overload pull of the rocket earlier, the entire person is nearly flattened, but the heart and brain are protected by some device, keeping the person barely alive. As Shinji mentioned earlier, this person has been used as a ’live delivery’ preservation bag, with the most valuable being the memory unit and the sample of Dark Erosion Cells in the petri dish.

Ryuji, Shi Zhi, Little Qing Ah Bai, and others silently stand aside, saying nothing. Lu Xingchen, having just made a significant contribution, is now sitting in Qian Suxun’s heavy armored mecha. Though his spirit has improved significantly after Shi Zhi’s superpower purification, he doesn’t have the energy to speak at the moment.

Qian Suxun’s gaze falls on Lin Xian, as he exhales and speaks: "Lin, besides intercepting the cleansing directive, another issue is we don’t know where the Abyss Demon is or how much time remains before its arrival..."

Boom!!

A bolt of thunder roars, and everyone in White City, along with those in the underground morgue, feels the tremor in the air.

Qian Suxun’s gaze shifts upwards, continuing: "Perhaps, it’s right above White City."

Everyone’s eyes turn to Lin Xian, who remains silent, speaking softly to Grace.

"Grace, start the Joint Train, accelerate. How long will the docking and landing take altogether?"

[Based on the current readiness of all convoy teams, a segment of the train needs to pass through the defense line and ascend using the rail device. Corrections need to be calculated based on the initial drop point of the superconducting magnetic anchor array device launched by Silent City. The major time consumption of this plan is in the initiation stage, estimated at around 21 minutes and 40 seconds. Excluding unfavorable factors, the premise of this result is for you to personally perform the rail construction. Otherwise, the total time may extend by more than 30 minutes.]

minutes – this time is originally good news for Lin Xian, as everyone could quickly enter the White City rail and escape. But now, he feels the time is too long. He must return to personally drive Infinity; allowing other convoy members to lay rails not only consumes substantial time, but the most critical risk is that stepping out of the defense range could trigger a Monster Tide.
