On the Infinity, Chen Sixuan locked all the doors, activated the Sentinel System’s warning mechanism, and began organizing resources and the carriage with the remaining people.
With the warning system activated, 1130 could attack any unknown threat units under Chen Sixuan’s authorization anytime, which was very intelligent.
The PX05-engineering robot was set with maintenance instructions by KIKI; once 1130 started, it would quickly follow up to supplement the ammunition chain.
"Everyone, using the Infinity as the center point, communication will likely be interrupted beyond a certain distance, so make sure to return to the train by 17:00."
Lin Xian’s voice transmitted everywhere through the intercom.
"Alright~" KIKI’s voice echoed with the whistling wind; the little girl was flying over the city, observing the streets with delight.
"Received, received." Sha Sha also replied through the intercom, then waved at Lu Xingchen: "Did you hear that? If you get lost, I won’t come to find you, so you better keep close to me~"
Lu Xingchen smiled wryly, "Got it~"
"Okay, be careful, everyone." Chen Sixuan’s voice came from the Infinity as well.
Lin Xian heard the responses from all sides, signaled with a glance to Shu Qin, and then increased the throttle, speeding away quickly.
Wearing Power Armor, he carried a Magnetic Control Black Gun and an electric knife on his back, along with a loaded automatic rifle, adequately prepared.
In terms of distance, the direction he was scouting was the farthest, having to go tens of kilometers out of the city. According to the map, Qingshui Town, near Shijiu Lake, would take at least an hour on a motorcycle to reach, so they didn’t bother exploring the streets, storming straight ahead.
Zombie groans emerged around Lin Xian; he maneuvered his motorcycle, occasionally using the Wind Gun to take care of zombies blocking the way, zigzagging through the open ground.
Shu Qin followed closely behind, possessing exceptional skills, moving nimbly like threading a needle through the group of zombies.
In the street’s corner, a zombie lunged unexpectedly; Shu Qin’s gaze slightly focused, handling the throttle, drifting elegantly while releasing the handlebars, and sidestepping the lunging zombie, then deftly drawing the Remington M96 from her back, firing a shot in reverse, splitting the zombie in the air, and seamlessly returning the gun, grabbing the handlebars to speed up and follow Lin Xian.
Seeing Shu Qin’s moves through the rearview mirror, Lin Xian felt a shock; his physical attributes had upgraded beyond ordinary people, and he also had superpowers, yet couldn’t achieve Shu Qin’s robust coordination.
It appears the Genetic Evolution from absorbing nocturnal power has immense potential for ordinary people, and such skills are definitely capable of contending with Abnormal Bodies.
After passing through numerous districts, the two finally reached the outskirts; the road out of the city was clogged with abandoned cars, though fortunately, they rode motorcycles, traversing ridges and slopes swiftly towards Qingshui Town.
After Lin Xian rode several dozen kilometers, a broad deep blue water body appeared in the distance, connecting the sky and earth; it was a massive lake. Not yet approaching, they already felt the abundant humid lake-land wind blowing, indicative of climate change from the lake effect, suggesting the water body was enormous, even seeming like an ocean at first glance.
Before setting out, Lin Xian studied this lake, which was the largest freshwater lake on the Yunjiang Plain, with an area of 120,000 square kilometers and depths reaching over 1900 meters, serving as a vital freshwater reserve for Dragon Country.
The dark blue water body also seemed extraordinarily deep. From a young age, having nearly drowned in a deep-water reservoir due to playful recklessness, Lin Xian naturally harbored a fear of deep water.
Now, he imagined entering the ocean orbital section later, firing a train on thousands of meters deep ocean ridge tracks, a thrilling and exciting thought.
"Captain Lin, even during the day, the water environment might have Abnormal Bodies, so be cautious."
Shu Qin’s voice came through the communicator; after leaving the city, other teams were out of contact.
"I know, we won’t go into the water."
Having experienced the No.9 Underground City and Rain Town, Lin Xian knew even during daytime, those dark buildings could house Abnormal Bodies, particularly as deep water naturally blocks sunlight.
Survivors had gained substantial insight into the behavior of these Dark Creatures.
The motorcycle raced forward, and Lin Xian began adjusting his course, veering from the highway to ordinary national roads.
Qingshui Town was a small town with a modest population, with few people fleeing here during the apocalypse; abandoned cars on the road began diminishing, allowing speed to gradually increase.
Passing through several lakeside woods, Lin Xian raised his gaze, spotting a small town with a tourist ambiance, roadside rusty signs still read "Welcome to Qingshui Town"~
As the two motorcycles neared, countless run-down cars appeared, scattered across the highway with a few zombies wandering around.
These vehicles were pushed to the roadside, forming a passageway.
Lin Xian and Shu Qin reached an open hillside, stopping their motorcycles.
