Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train
Chapter 632 - 311: Wasteland World
CHAPTER 632: CHAPTER 311: WASTELAND WORLD
From Xilan City to now, the team has always been in darkness. Even with the Heterogeneous Rubik’s Cube, everyone has absorbed quite a bit of Dark Power. This force urgently needs to be neutralized and digested; prolonged exposure might cause irreversible impact to the body.
Lin Xian’s mind cleared a bit at this moment. Sitting by the bed, he opened the light-shield and looked at the dense Zombies in the wilderness outside and said: "Have you received any message from the Phoenix Society or other survivor radio stations?"
"We haven’t received any messages from nearby radio stations yet. However, we did receive the global radio broadcast from the Phoenix Society."
Chen Sixuan took out the dark radio and played the recorded radio content.
"Zzz... Global announcement from the Phoenix Society, the Nightwalker Department and Xinghua Technology have jointly developed the latest Soul Swinging Value Detector [Spirit Compass], which can detect one’s peak Spirit Vibration Value and [Dark Mark] concentration by consuming Blood Essence. It can also detect the Abnormal Body fluctuations in the surrounding environment, helping all survivors find relatively safe areas for shelter before nightfall. In addition, the Phoenix Society has issued the following warnings about [Dark Mark]..."
"First, the mark concentration levels range from 1 to 5, with 1 to 4 level marks having differing concentrations after being marked by various Abnormal Bodies, while the 5 level mark is marked by an S-Class Abnormal Body. Second, all marks can be reduced by absorbing dark energy after killing Abnormal Bodies. Third, the relationship between mark concentration and night raids is proportionally positive but not absolutely correlated. If you’re in the territory of an S-Class Abnormal Body, even a level 1 mark will be targeted. Lastly, the Phoenix Society has urgently manufactured 3 million [Spirit Compass] for the Nightwalker Postman group to airdrop in global cities not covered by Extreme Night, urging all survivors to pick up the [Spirit Compass] and pass it to others, jointly overcoming the night!"
"We haven’t found this [Spirit Compass] yet. We may have a chance to see it when we go to Quan City or when we encounter other convoys," Chen Sixuan said.
"Is it free?" Sha Sha, wearing gloves and fiddling with the Excitation Circuit of an arc pulse string vibrator, couldn’t help but say, "Will others be so kind as to give it to us?"
Upon hearing this, KIKI said: "These days, why would anyone give you something for free."
"But isn’t the Phoenix Society giving them for free?"
"That’s the Phoenix Society." After speaking, she looked at Lin Xian: "Or let your Brother Lin scan it, and won’t it be easily made on our own?"
Lin Xian said: "We have the Hell Black Chrysanthemum; this thing is only left with the function to detect peak Superpower, and since the Phoenix Society can manufacture 3 million sets, more will be made later. There’s no point in trying to hoard them for high prices."
Since the Phoenix Society can create it, the external blueprint would surely be released free of charge. By then, Silent City, the Old Federation, and all sorts of organizations with development and manufacturing capabilities would definitely be able to make it, so wanting it to be expensive won’t get anywhere.
For Lin Xian, this is even less of a challenge because he can now scan remotely and replicate mechanical structures effortlessly.
After speaking, Lin Xian pressed the communicator to start communicating with Dragon Mountain No.1 and other convoys about the situation.
"Lin, we’re estimating two or three more hours to reach Robb. It’s uncertain whether there will be fewer Zombies there. If the situation is good, I want to stop and find some water."
Just as Lin Xian asked, Shi Deyuan’s voice came through.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xian said: "Are you very short on water?"
"Currently, we’re not short." In the cockpit of Dragon Mountain No.1, Shi Deyuan was watching the water level lines of each water tank on the train and the bottled water stock in the supply car with a slightly serious look: "But just in case, after crossing the Western Desert and the Tage Desert, if anything goes wrong, stopping for water is far more crucial than running out of food."
After hearing Shi Deyuan’s words, other convoy captains also expressed their agreement. Lin Xian looked at Chen Sixuan at this time, and Chen Sixuan also nodded with a frown.
"Yes, our current water situation is not very optimistic."
The last time the Infinity was replenished with freshwater was back in Qingshui Town, when the water tanks were filled and the supply car held a lot of bottled water.
But since they crossed Hengshan Pass, they haven’t replenished any water resources. The toxin concentration of the dark invasion in the snow water of the Extreme Cold Vortex was extremely high, so high that even the Heterogeneous Rubik’s Cube had to report an alarm. Thus, there was essentially no difference between being in the snowfield and the wilderness.
In Xilan City, Chen Sixuan did replace some fresh water back onto the train, but the water continued to become increasingly scarce.
At that time, Chen Sixuan also raised this issue with Lin Xian, but back then, faced with a city-wide deadlock, the water resource problem was relatively minor.
Now that they have rushed out of Star Abyss No.5 into the Western Desert, without replenishing fresh water for a long time, the various convoys have seen red alerts in terms of water resources.
Lin Xian immediately discussed the current water resource situation on the Infinity with Chen Sixuan, finding it worse than expected.
The Infinity has already realized water-oxygen circulation, integrating all gray water into a recycling filtering system, including bath water and sanitation water, and even the urine from men and women on the train is filtered to provide for ecological circulation in the Green Plant Carriage No.4, then filtered three times before entering the drinking water pipeline.
With the Heterogeneous Rubik’s Cube in place, the water on the train was not affected by secondary dark invasion. However, the initial water injected into the train doesn’t have the capacity to filter the dark invasion; it can only maximize the isolation of bacteria. It was only after being absorbed and neutralized by the human body that the train’s water gradually became ’clean.’
