CHAPTER 633: CHAPTER 311: WASTELAND WORLD

But water cannot be used indefinitely. The human body evaporates, the train consumes, the cooling system for the nuclear-powered carriages, including plants and vegetables, all contribute to the loss. The situation on the Infinity is already among the better ones in numerous convoys, with fewer people and more storage, yet the water problem is still becoming increasingly severe.

"The bottled water we obtained from Xilan City and the Zero Element Center is now rationed to half a bottle per person per day. If they finish it, they start drinking recycled water."

In Carriage 7, the materials reserve, Chen Sixuan reported to Lin Xian, "There are still two big water consumers, one is the nuclear-powered carriage, and the other is our Plant Room in Carriage 4."

"These zombie tides are also impacting our travel speed. According to Brother Shi, it will take us two to three more hours to reach Rob Town. If we don’t stop, we can’t reach Akse before dark, and for Quan City, it might take until the day after tomorrow. We have more food resources than water, and indeed that is an issue."

Chen Sixuan said worriedly, "The Western Desert is too vast. Given the current situation, if we reach Quan City without supplies, we’ll be in trouble."

"Even if there are supplies, according to the Phoenix Society, the toxin concentration of the water increases with each passing night," Chen Sixuan said. "Currently, there’s no better way to isolate and filter the dark invasion other than relying on the body’s absorption and resistance."

Quan City, located in the Lost City of the Tage Desert, is an even more desolate place than the Western Desert.

From there, continuing eastward, it would take over six thousand kilometers across the Tage Desert to reach the Jin River. Another direction is going south to Luling or Baisha, but that’s also in the desert, making it hard to leave in a short time.

Therefore, the water issue is currently a major problem facing all convoys!

"Then we have to look for water resources along the way."

Lin Xian smiled wryly, "As for the toxin from the dark invasion, those who have survived so far should be able to resist thanks to bodily evolution. Filtering it several more times is better than dying of thirst. At least for now, we won’t be persistently devoured by the Dark Tide."

Ugh ah ugh ah!!

Countless zombies, faces full of black blood, hair dry and brittle, surged towards the speeding Joint Train, turning instantly into a mist of blood under the massive kinetic energy.

"Whoa~"

In one of the carriages of the Sun train, a group of children leaned against the window, unable to suppress their amazement at the exploding bodies of the zombies along the way.

Guarding the carriage was a man with a big beard named Old Dong, who chuckled, "How is it? Isn’t it gory? Children shouldn’t watch for too long, or you won’t sleep at night."

As the train proceeded, the sides of the Joint Train were already stained dark red with blood like it had driven out from a sea of blood.

At this time, Lin Xian came to Carriage 4, the Plant Room, and looked at the greenery with a complex expression.

Seeing this green amidst a world of yellow sand is undoubtedly refreshing, yet the water issue inevitably makes Lin Xian start to worry.

If the dark invasion concentration of water resources around the globe continues to rise, someday, even the fresh water directly drawn by the Infinity will trigger an alarm from the Heterogeneous Rubik’s Cube. Extreme Night hasn’t fully covered the world yet, and such a severe issue is already before all humanity.

Lin Xian doesn’t know how many people are left in the world, nor does he know how many die every day. Looking at the densely packed zombie army, each of them was once a living human on Blue Star...

Clang, clang~

The train sped on, and everyone on the Infinity had recovered well. In Brother Huo’s carriage, all the light-blocking panels were opened. He was floating in the center of the carriage with the Infinite Bracelet on his wrist, occasionally spewing fire with his fingers to adjust his position and maintain parallel speed with the train, completely ignoring all the zombies, enjoyably basking in the sunlight.

Since obtaining this strange object, he had become open-minded, feeling a sense of freedom as if the world was his palyground, completely putting the previous incident of autumn clothes behind him.

"Everyone, we may have to stop at the upcoming Rob Town to look for supplies. Most importantly, water sources, so everyone should prepare themselves."

Lin Xian’s voice sounded over the train’s internal channel, and upon hearing it, everyone began to put on Power Armor and prepare their weapons. Maintaining caution at all times had been ingrained into everyone’s bloodstream.

Lu Xingchen heard this and immediately pressed the communicator,

"Brother Lin, for such a heavy task, I am willing to go!"

After knowing that this guy could fly, Lin Xian, eager to see, directly responded, "Alright, I’ll send you as the vanguard. Just be careful not to cause any trouble."

"Rest assured, Brother Lin!"

In Carriage 1, Lin Xian had already brought the Black Hawk Battle Armor over, and at the same time, 20 Thunder Falcon 2000s were neatly parked on the ground, charging.

Looking at the outside situation, Chen Sixuan took a deep breath and said,

"It seems we guessed right. The further we go, the less dense the zombies are. These are all driven out by corpse chasers."

"Hearing that makes me somewhat sympathize with the zombies..."

Lin Xian picked up his Black Gun, adjusting the power value on its Magnetic Control Engine as he spoke.

Sss, at this moment Chen Sixuan also directly put on her Battle Armor, the mask falling, and spoke through mechanical transmission, "As we move further forward, we’re nearing the Federation areas. I heard the situation here is quite complex at Hengshan Pass. Just entering Dawn City has cost three Blood Essence without knowing how much it’s gone up."

Three Blood Essence...

Lin Xian opened a small drawer, inside was the iron box Wei Kexue had given him, which also contained three Blood Essences.

For someone like Wei Kexue, collecting three was quite a feat; he was within the Phoenix Society’s organization. For other survivors, if there weren’t strong individuals around, imagine the difficulties in killing three White Giant Monsters or Red Slugs.

"Everyone, pay attention, we’re approaching Rob Town ahead."
