Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train

Chapter 1359 - 525: Escape from Blue Star

Squeak~When the Joint Train traversed the North American Continent and entered Mexico, considering the previous dangers in Leon City, Lin Xian and the command center decided, after discussion, to temporarily halt the train and have the Air Fleet send patrols to investigate before passing through the city clusters.

After a period of slow deceleration, the Century Train, over a hundred kilometers long, gradually came to a stop amidst the thick fog filled with gray snow.

The countless passengers onboard looked out through the train windows, their vision completely obscured by the dense fog, as if a solid wall was blocking the view of heaven and earth.

Despite ongoing concerns, the track issues were fundamentally resolved following the appearance of Lin Xian and Silent City, giving the survivors considerable confidence.

After the brutal battles, the train cabins of various teams were still shrouded in grief and busyness, with people silently repairing everything, assisting the wounded, exchanging resources, and replenishing food and water.

Many warriors finally had the chance to rest and get some sleep.

These thousands of train carriages connected together were akin to a medium-sized city society. The only problem was that traversing was inconvenient due to the distances, often taking quite a while to walk through the passages of two or three large train teams combined, which stretched over several kilometers.

Moreover, the front and rear carriages not being connected was also an issue.

Therefore, some resource exchanges were handled through teammates in Flying Power Armor or drones. Sean from the Utopia Team approached the Infinity, suggesting connecting Viola’s intelligent system to the temporary local area network. This way, all drones could be integrated to help team passengers resolve resource transport and mechanical repair issues.

Lin Xian considered this feasible, so he agreed. After learning that Lin Xian needed to devour machinery, some team leaders offered their team’s power carriages to him.

This not only helped Lin Xian but also facilitated the connection between carriages, making mutual aid more convenient.

They knew that helping Lin Xian meant helping themselves, as Lin Xian was the overall commander of the Joint Train, and no one would oppose him. Besides, the next destination for this train was Polar, reaching the endpoint of its task. As long as the overall towing power remained unaffected, everyone was willing to contribute their power heads.

This was good news for Lin Xian, as he was worried about barely reaching Level 8, so he did not decline. While the train was halted, he had Viola deploy drones to dismantle the front connectors and assist teams in making carriage connections.

He divided the whole train group into 60 power nodes, concentrating power and core energy at these nodes, while deploying the most powerful armed carriages from each team nearby and interconnecting the rest of the carriages.

This didn’t require much effort but allowed for a well-configured train power system, ensuring smoothness.

As a result, except for the super-large train teams like Utopia, the other medium and small teams were essentially merged into regions of 100 connected carriages, which were named [Track Cities]

Although each team still had its activity space, there were now large passageways for mutual assistance between them. Consequently, the once silent carriages became much livelier.

Food, weapons, medical, and other resources began to circulate smoothly, greatly alleviating the post-war difficulties faced by some train teams.

Although at the current speed, passing through the South American Continent might only take a few days, Elder Luo and the others still considered it very necessary to prepare resource allocation and firepower deployment, as there’s no guarantee that they won’t encounter another crimson tide when crossing the Great Lakes or the Amazon Jungle.

"We are currently unable to determine the situation of those five towers, nor what the arrival of the angels from the High Tower Civilization will be like, so before reaching the Polar, we must not be complacent."

In Silent City’s United Conference Center, commanders from various war zones, Mr. Luo, Zeng Weiguo, Wu Xiangqun, and from the survivor side, Sean from Utopia, Marcus Jeanne, Lei Zhen from the Common Alliance, and from the Infinite Alliance, Lin Xian, Jian Xuwei, Jiang Yun, He Linqiu, Shi Deyuan, and others, conducted the meeting through a holographic light screen.

Mochizuki Masashi stood in the center, hands tucked in his sleeves, presiding over the meeting, while key members from Silent City like Qian Suxun stood silently outside the light screen.

"The essence of the crimson fog is a kind of dimensional particle; from our three-dimensional world view, it appears as fog, but it is not actually so."

Mochizuki Masashi said calmly at this moment, "What we need to worry about now is not the angel but what Lin referred to as ’world dimensional modification.’"

"What will happen after dimensional modification?" Elder Luo immediately asked.

Mochizuki Masashi raised his head and smiled slightly.

"It’s simple, death."

He said, "When three-dimensional creatures suddenly enter high-dimensional space, their physiological structures will collapse instantly. Simply put, the organs of three-dimensional beings are supported by only length, width, and height. Upon entering four-dimensional or higher space, their bodies lack physical support in the fourth dimension, and the internal organs will be directly exposed and fall off along the path of least resistance."

Upon hearing this, everyone turned pale.

"This isn’t even the most terrifying part," Mochizuki Masashi continued. "The most terrifying part is the change in physical laws. Basic forces like electromagnetism and gravity fail, and in high-dimensional spaces, they follow the inverse-cube law, causing molecular bonds to break, DNA coding to fail, resulting in the collapse of protein structures and the instant cessation of human body functions."
