Chapter 348: Chapter 250: Track Fortress in the Snowstorm_2

Whoosh!

The train sped forward without any stops.

It was daytime now, and the Snow Demons hadn’t appeared again. Lin Xian found it strange, yet he felt slightly relieved.

No matter the reason, gaining some extra distance brought them closer to Xilan City, and everything else was secondary.

The train charged forward at full speed, breaking through the wind and snow, allowing the people on board to relax a little.

Woo!~

The train’s engine was operating at full capacity, casting large amounts of snow into the air. The snow crystals glistened under the sunlight, while the passengers in the living car watched the pristine scene through the windows, each with an expression of intense vigilance.

The immaculate white did not provide any sense of beauty; on the contrary, the pervasive snow poison and the Snow Demons bred within the snow constantly instilled a sense of terror.

As the power of the night became tangible, the Infinity train traveling on this white Snowfield felt as if it were surrounded by an endless force of fear, suffocating everyone.

Lin Xian was entirely on edge; the Infinity was running in an extremely dangerous environment. As the snow layers thickened, he was always ready to activate the Mechanical Heart to increase power for the whole train to burst through.

Their direction was towards the western Palma Prairie, an area enveloped by the Extreme Cold Vortex, and unsurprisingly, other survivors in the region were also converging towards Xilan City.

This was not only because the Phoenix Society was stationed there, but also because Xilan City itself was a major industrial city in the west, primarily producing steel and industrial goods, and was also the Federation’s military production city with fortress-level defenses.

The Phoenix Society chose Xilan City as the central support city for Star Abyss No.3, No.5, and No.7 due to its strong defensive capabilities.

Earlier radio information indicated that there were many survivors there, and the Phoenix Society’s evacuation would occur a few days later. The next stage was to traverse the edge of Star Abyss No.5 and pursue Dawn Center.

Lin Xian had a two-pronged strategy, mainly dependent on collaboration with the Phoenix Society. If they could solve the train’s drive upgrade issue in Xilan City, he would have an additional choice: to follow Dawn Center over the Qionggu Strait. If not, he would go to Dawn City and take the ocean rail, possibly catching up to the sea city Noah.

"You should rest for a while."

In the cockpit, only Chen Sixuan and Lin Xian were present. Seeing Lin Xian preoccupied, Chen Sixuan urged him to rest, knowing that he hadn’t slept last night.

"It’s alright."

Lin Xian looked at the snow bursting ahead, his expression tense, and said, "This stretch is crucial, I need to keep watch."

Beep beep beep!

At that moment, the alarm in the cockpit suddenly sounded, and KIKI’s voice came from the communicator in car No.2: "Lin Xian, radar warning, there’s an obstacle on the track ahead!"

"What kind of obstacle?"

"It’s a... train!"

Lin Xian’s expression changed greatly upon hearing this, and he hurriedly looked ahead, only to be dazzled by the snow, seeming to spot a black object parked in the middle.

"Lin Xian!"

Chen Sixuan exclaimed, immediately pointing forward, "There’s really a train!"

Lin Xian finally spotted it; amidst the endless whiteness ahead, a train almost frozen in the snow was parked on the track. With the snow piled up and covering it, the snow on the roof had merged with the Snowfield into a single entity. As the Infinity approached rapidly, the tall double-decker car and its body covered in icicles came into view, and ahead, dozens of cars were connected, like a long dragon frozen in snow, lying silently on the Snowfield.

"This train??"

"Dragon Mountain No.1!"

Screech!!

Rumble!!

Lin Xian gritted his teeth and could only fully stop the rushing Infinity. The giant train ahead blocked the track, preventing them from moving forward.

Snow billowed as the roaring beast came to a halt under active braking on the Snowfield, steam continuously rising from the tracks. The sudden incident prompted everyone on the train to curiously look outside, unaware of what had transpired.

In the cockpit, Lin Xian and Chen Sixuan both wore expressions of surprise and complexity.

"Why is Dragon Mountain No.1 stopped here?" Lin Xian asked, puzzled.

In the Airport, his impression of this train set and Shi Deyuan was still very vivid, and Dragon Mountain No.1 was also one of the main forces of the towing plan, having contributed significantly to the ascent to the high-altitude corridor.

But now, Lin Xian looked at the train parked on the track ahead with a grave expression.

From the snow and ice covering this train, it seemed to have been stopped for a long time, certainly more than a day!

This situation was extremely eerie, and Lin Xian could only think of two possibilities: either something had happened, or something had happened.

"Teacher Chen, try making a call."

Chen Sixuan immediately used the onboard communicator to make contact, but there was no response.

"Is there no one?"

"No."

"Is there any other way through?" At this moment, Lin Xian considered the worst-case scenario and began identifying key issues.

Chen Sixuan, looking worried, immediately opened the driving route map and after checking, said, "No, this stretch doesn’t have dual tracks."

Knock knock knock.

At this moment, KIKI and Shu Qin noticed the anomaly and ran towards the engine.

"Captain Lin, what’s wrong?"

"The path is blocked."

"Dragon Mountain No.1?" Da Lou also saw the train ahead and said with an odd expression, "Why are they blocking here?"
