Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train
Chapter 114 - 109: The Hill

Chapter 114: Chapter 109: The Hill

At this moment, Lin Xian began to feel that his decision to venture here was somewhat impulsive.

Monsters that could trigger earthquakes, he didn’t even dare to think what could be beneath the Underground City.

Whoosh~

Lin Xian shook off the residual sand from his body, feeling a sinking sensation in his heart.

But now that he was here, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and move forward.

"Let’s go."

"Wow, Lin Xian, if an earthquake collapses this place, we can only be buried here." KIKI said while walking.

"It sounds a bit more dignified than being bitten to death by Zombies and Black Insects."

"Hey, are you not afraid?"

"What’s the use of being afraid." Lin Xian swiftly walked along the maintenance passage with his flashlight, speaking urgently, "Since we’re here, we have to get something out of it."

"Ah, if I die here, I can only be buried with you." KIKI muttered.

"If you want, you can choose that red handsome guy we just met; it would greet you nicely, quite polite."

Lin Xian thought this girl’s thought process was astonishing, even making remarks in life-or-death situations.

"Ptui! I don’t want that!"

She quickened her pace, grabbing the corner of Lin Xian’s clothes: "Then I’d rather be buried with you, not to end up as a lonely ghost."

In the long downward tunnel, the two of them gasped for air while whispering, their voices constantly echoing in the passage.

Lin Xian’s flashlight continuously illuminated the path ahead until suddenly, he seemed to spot something and abruptly stopped.

KIKI, unable to avoid in time, bumped into Lin Xian’s back.

"Why did you suddenly stop?"

Rubbing her nose, KIKI saw Lin Xian shining his flashlight towards the top of the tunnel ahead, only to see something brownish-red on the wall, irregular in shape and as large as a washbowl, resembling some kind of biological tissue.

"Is that... flesh?" KIKI frowned deeply, growing paler the more she looked. "Look, there’s more ahead!"

She exclaimed in shock, and Lin Xian’s flashlight revealed even more flesh-like structures ahead, resembling tumors growing on the walls, causing a sense of discomfort.

Lin Xian’s expression turned stern as he picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at the nearest piece of flesh-like tissue.

Snap~

The stone bounced off, no reaction, the stone wasn’t corroded.

Thus, Lin Xian walked forward and pressed on the flesh-like tissue.

"What the hell is this, flesh growing in the ground?"

"Lin Xian, something really feels off here..."

Lin Xian’s expression tightened, and he continued to move forward.

As they went deeper, the flesh-like tissues inside the tunnel passage became increasingly abundant and densely packed, with larger chunks starting to appear.

"Lin Xian, do you feel like we’ve walked into some Monster’s stomach or something?"

"I have that feeling too." Lin Xian was not joking. He genuinely felt it.

The flesh-like tissue ahead was becoming more abundant. Just as the two were curiously examining it, KIKI suddenly pulled him.

"Lin Xian, watch out!"

Whoosh!

A cold wind hit them, and it was then that Lin Xian regained his senses. The light from his flashlight seemed to be swallowed by something ahead. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the tunnel ahead and the wall on the right had completely disappeared, revealing several huge cavities, and the tunnel had also fractured...

"My god!"

KIKI exclaimed, taking a step forward, only to find that they were now standing on the edge of a cliff. The entire right wall was exposed, and a moonlight beam fell from the sky above. Looking up, they could actually see the huge square entrance of the Underground City above in the night, presenting the symmetrical outline of a human-made structure.

It turned out that the spiral tunnel wound down around the inner wall of the Underground City’s pit, at this time they were already below the 90th level, looking up the sky pit seemed like a well mouth.

And this broken area resembled a complete collapse, with densely packed brownish-red flesh-like tissues spreading down the collapsed mouth, and below the Underground City, the excavated pit had piled up into a huge mound.

At this moment, getting closer, Lin Xian suddenly got the illusion that the large expanse of flesh and blood in front of him was breathing slowly.

"This thing is growing up from below."

Lin Xian and KIKI both came to the edge of the broken track, looking downward into the deep pit below.

"Lin Xian, do you see that? Is there something there?" KIKI’s voice was filled with uncertainty.

The flashlight in Lin Xian’s hand cast out light, but it was completely absorbed by the darkness and the snowstorm, making nothing visible except for the flesh below their feet spreading downward like a waterfall.

"Where?"

"There!"

KIKI pointed towards the center of the pit in the Underground City.

Lin Xian focused the flashlight, but still couldn’t illuminate the bottom.

"I didn’t see anything."

"Where did you mean?"

"Hm?"

As Lin Xian spoke, he noticed KIKI wasn’t responding; turning his head to look, he saw KIKI standing there frozen, slowly taking off her anti-toxic mask. Under the moonlight, Lin Xian could even see the terrified expression she revealed to him.

KIKI raised a finger, slowly pointing towards the center, then with her other hand,

she turned off the flashlight in Lin Xian’s hand.

Click.

The light from the flashlight went out, and the surrounding darkness actually became clearer due to the moonlight.

Lin Xian followed KIKI’s pointing finger into the darkness, concentrating his gaze, and then raised his eyes.

Suddenly, his pupils sharply contracted.

Apparently, KIKI wasn’t pointing to a particular direction; she was pointing towards the huge hill in the darkness.

When he considered the whole darkness as one entity, he shockingly found that the hill seemed to outline some kind of creature.

It was like...

A giant fish covered with arms!!!

Hiss!

Lin Xian immediately gasped in a breath of cold air, his eyes filled with disbelief as he observed the enormous outline, which stretched at least a thousand meters in the dark.

Looking further, he seemed to see a mountain-like body, numerous flesh spreading from the center towards the surrounding structures of the Underground City, growing!

At this moment, a thought nearly simultaneously rose in the minds of Lin Xian and KIKI.

This is a living creature!

Without any surprises, the giant creature hidden in the darkness of the Underground City’s pit was the source of the earlier earthquake!

"My God..."

KIKI clutched her mouth tightly, even afraid to make too much noise, lest she disturb the immense presence in the darkness.

"Lin Xian... Is this what they mentioned as the underground creature."

"Perhaps... it is"

Lin Xian’s face was filled with horror, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Did this thing emerge from the ground..."

What stunned him so much was the idea that with the apocalypse approaching, there was a consensus among humans that hiding underground could provide more safety.

But at this moment, the dark presence in the pit number 9 of the Underground City appeared before Lin Xian and KIKI in a suffocating manner.

370,000 people perished overnight, and the strongly built Underground City originally worth trillions of dollars fell directly.

In front of these bizarre creatures emerging from the darkness.

Humans, were like ants!
