Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train

Chapter 1263 - 486: Staring_3

"Brother Lin, Sister Kiki, what’s happening here? Is this normal?"Upon hearing this, Lin Xian quickly walked over, followed by Ding Junyi and Chen Sixuan, and Shi Zhi also joined them. The group gathered around KIKI’s hibernation pod, and upon seeing the situation inside, their faces all shifted subtly.

At this moment, KIKI, lying in the hibernation pod, kept her eyes open. A deep and immeasurable beauty glimmered in her pupils, with countless brilliant shadows slowly swirling like a galaxy vortex. It looked both magnificent and somewhat eerie.

"When the crimson sky spread just now, she suddenly opened her eyes," Shi Zhi said with concern, "I checked her condition—everything seems normal. Her spiritual power is more stable than ever, but strangely, when I tried to resonate with her using superpower, I sensed a very peculiar... fluctuation."

"Fluctuation?" Lin Xian frowned.

"Yes." Shi Zhi tried to find the words to describe it: "I’ve never experienced this before—it felt as if... something else was responding to me."

Chen Sixuan immediately looked at Lin Xian upon hearing this, "Lin Xian, could there be a problem?"

Lin Xian shook his head, looking at KIKI, "Even if there is a problem, we can’t see it. Everyone’s crystalline evolution is accompanied by some bizarre occurrences, and since KIKI is a rare telekinesis type, it’s probably not straightforward. Let’s wait and see; it shouldn’t take too long."

Chen Sixuan nodded.

Soon, several other hibernation pods opened one after another—Luo Yang, Xiao Qing, Ah Bai—all successfully completed their crystalline evolution. With Lin Xian’s Heterogeneous Rubik’s Cube and his specially crafted Dark Energy Homogeneous System for protection, coupled with Shi Zhi’s care, everything was progressing more smoothly than expected.

Luo Yang advanced from 6300 to 13800, while Ah Bai rose from 6900 to 15500. The most impressive was Xiao Qing, a genetic evolver who advanced from over 7000 to 16800, an astonishing power boost.

Among the three, only Ah Bai had some unusual changes. His eyes turned entirely black, which looked a bit scary; the advantage was he no longer needed to wear black sunglasses to control his vision, but the downside was... it appeared rather unsettling.

So, Ah Bai still wore the laser glasses Lin Xian specially made for him.

After Xiao Qing’s crystalline evolution boost to nearly 17000, her indifferent expression seemed tinged with an indescribable excitement. Although not visible, Lin Xian noticed it immediately and suggested she assist outside, as there might still be danger. The Sword Girl nodded immediately, grabbed her Gun Blade, and turned to walk out, a subtle smile at the corner of her lips showing her apparent thirst for battle at that moment.

Lin Xian and the others waited nearly another hour, yet KIKI showed no signs of waking up. By then, it was already noon, and the turbulent waves outside had calmed. The Sky Dome Train broke out of the storm zone; the ocean beneath shone brightly under the sun, and the western horizon revealed a daunting black curtain wall.

During this time, Lin Xian kept a constant watch on KIKI’s signs. The time she was taking surpassed that used by Brother Huo, causing Lin Xian to feel something was amiss.

"Lin Xian, her breathing is weakening." Chen Sixuan’s face turned somewhat anxious.

Ding Junyi looked at the mobile terminal, "Her vital signs aren’t normal either."

Seeing this, Shi Zhi immediately raised her hands, attempting to resonate with KIKI using superpower, alarmed, "Her... her superpower seems to be... dissipating!?"

"KIKI!" Lin Xian called out.

Standing by the hibernation pod, Lin Xian looked gravely at the girl under the pod cover. In those violet starlight vortex eyes, he sensed a chilling dark energy fluctuation. Then, inexplicably, he looked up, seemingly catching a trace of the dark energy fluctuation’s direction, resembling the pure energy released after Hell Black Chrysanthemum converted dark energy before.

Lin Xian suddenly realized something, with a strange thump in his heart. He immediately turned to the Dark Energy Synchronization Device he had set up not far away, pointing a finger without a word.

Instantly, the protective device he created was rapidly devoured by his Mechanical Devouring, disintegrating into dust.

"Lin Xian, what are you doing?"

"She needs to absorb dark energy!"

As soon as Lin Xian spoke, he felt a peculiar dark energy, previously isolated, surge into KIKI’s eyes. The purple dark light exploded brilliantly, and as Lin Xian looked at that light, a powerful consciousness drag force pulled him directly into a void of darkness!

Whoosh~

Whoosh~

As if plummeting into a deep abyss, a strong sense of weightlessness overwhelmed him.

Breaking through the darkness, Lin Xian suddenly awakened, only to find the scenery before him utterly transformed!

Under the dark clouds of night, the desolate city appeared both familiar and strange. In the distant skyline, a neat line of signal lights flickered like breathing, illuminating the towering steel defense line encompassing the city, where the faint light seemed like a beacon of humanity, seeping solemnity mixed with oppression.

Atop a skyscraper in the city center, Lin Xian opened his eyes, gazing at the bizarre presence like a spectacle.

Above the sky.

A colossal human-shaped corpse floated face-down in the air, blocking out the sky and sun. The visible portion of its torso through the clouds measured, by visual estimation, at least over 10 kilometers long!

The gigantic floating corpse remained motionless, resembling a floating continent, its body entirely gray-black, with desiccated, valley-like skin folds clearly visible. Its pitch-black hollow eyes bore no sign of life, yet exerted an eerie sense of oppression, simply hovering above the city’s skies.

A peculiar whisper resonated in his ear. Lin Xian slowly raised his head, looking into the giant corpse’s abyssal eyes, and at that moment, the abyss seemed to be...

Gazing at him!
