Daybreak has arrived.
"Whew..."
After stretching lazily, Chen Mang jumped off the bed, and it was only when his gaze caught the gruesome scene outside that he was slightly stunned.
For the first time, he saw the term "bodies strewn everywhere" so vividly.
Thick, crimson blood had dyed the soil around the train, making it seem like he was in a sea of blood. Zombie limbs and flesh were everywhere; the whole scene didn't have a strong bloody odor, but appeared like the remnants of watermelons crushed by a hydraulic press.
Pieces of flesh were scattered everywhere.
...
As he washed up, he glanced at the "Train Log" on the control panel screen to realize what happened last night.
"Train Captain."
Standing nearby, Ai spoke through the speaker in the robot's throat with a cold and mechanical voice: "You did not set a command on whether to absorb flesh into the train as well, and all dropped items have been absorbed into the train by the Powerful Magnet."
"Absorb them now, and from now on, gather up the flesh as well in this kind of situation."
"Understood."
Only after wiping the water from his face with a towel did Chen Mang sit in his chair and exhale deeply, lighting a cigarette leisurely as he began to check the Train Radio. He quickly learned that last night's Corpse Tide wasn't targeting only him, but all trains.
Almost every train on Shahe Plain was hit by the Corpse Tide last night.
Many trains were destroyed.
And these trains were mostly Level 4 trains that had just come to Shahe Plain from the white region. These trains didn't have the Drill component and could not even hide, leaving them to race wildly on the plain against the Corpse Tide. But there were simply too many zombies. Once surrounded, they could only despair and await death.
Almost all newcomers were wiped out, leaving only a few trains that had settled in Shahe Plain for some time.
"Hmm?"
Chen Mang frowned slightly, the first thought in his mind was whether this incident was orchestrated by the group "Balance," perhaps as a retaliatory act by that World-Hating boy who held a grudge from yesterday.
But he quickly dismissed this suspicion, first, because he didn't think that boy had such capabilities. Moreover, if it was to retaliate against him, there was no need to involve so many innocent trains.
With the monsters disappearing in the Kunlun Mountain Region, it was basically concluded that it was to cover up the entrance to the Adventure Map exclusive to the Flesh and Blood Train.
Could it be related to this Corpse Tide upheaval?
No, that doesn't add up either.
That Adventure Map for the Flesh and Blood Train should be associated with the Heaven-Reaching Tower. Could it be the tower?
Wait—
Suddenly realizing something, he picked up the train radio's walkie-talkie, found the chat window with the Azure Dragon Train Captain, and only when he saw the other person's name hadn't dimmed did he begin to speak.
"Are you still alive over there?"
"Alive."
Soon, the familiar and rapid panting voice of Er Dan came over the walkie-talkie: "I'm alive, but everyone else is about dead. Originally thought of saving some people, but it's really tough to rescue, barely any chance. Only managed to save over 300 people."
"Now in Ice and Snow World, the lower-level trains are basically wiped out, only some Level 5 and Level 6 trains remain, starting to run for their lives."
"That monster is a Level 6 monster, I'm organizing Level 6 trains to see if we can cooperate to kill it, but its size is too huge, machine gun fire on it feels like scratching an itch."
"Mainly it's..."
"Flying in the air consumes too much energy, and I don't have much iron ore left on the train. Once the iron ore runs out, without an Energy Stone, I suppose I'll die here too."
"How much iron ore do you have left?"
"A little over 100,000."
"I remember Bunny Cloud only consumes one Level 2 Energy Stone while flying continuously for 24 hours, more than 100,000 is enough to fly for 20 days."
"You remember?" Er Dan's panting voice came over the walkie-talkie: "Where do you remember that from? Don't tell me you have a Bunny Cloud too? Damn, you're just a Level 5 train!"
"Didn't you have one at Level 5?"
"I got mine differently, spent so much time exploring the Adventure Map to exchange for it."
Inside the Constant Star Train.
Chen Mang glanced at the control panel screen, thinking of sending Er Dan some iron ore, but it indicated they weren't in the same region so remote trading wasn't possible. After a pause, he frowned and said, "You said that area is blocked off, trains can't enter, can bullets shoot in?"
"Probably can."
Er Dan quickly caught on over the walkie-talkie: "You're suggesting organizing Level 6 trains on Shahe Plain to provide fire support at the region's border?"
"Impossible!"
"Bullets are too expensive, this disaster isn't on their heads, they definitely won't waste their copper ore, and even if they do come, those heavy machine guns and artillery would barely harm this monster. You haven't seen this monster for yourself, you don't know how terrifyingly huge it is."
"I'll try it out."
"You alone?"
"Yes."
"Wait... I remembered you're S-rank potential, you should have red-grade heavy firepower accessories, maybe you can pull it off, but it will certainly consume a lot of resources, you'll lose heavily."
"Didn't you say you're about to die? At least we're friends, I can't just watch you die in that region."
"Hey." Er Dan's laughter came over the walkie-talkie: "You're truly righteous, brother. If this monster doesn't die, then it seems the area blockade won't be lifted. We'll talk more later, what do we do next."
Looking at the control panel screen, Chen Mang says: "Try to lure that monster to the border point (7921, 2832) between Ice and Snow World and Kunlun Mountain within three hours. I'll be there in roughly three hours, see if you can make it happen."
