Chapter 354: Chapter 251 Dragon Mountain Predicament (Thanks to That Trace of Sorrow Alliance Leader)_4

Lin Xian checked the time; it was already close to 1 PM, and the daylight hours were getting shorter. He was uncertain whether he could repair this several-hundred-ton behemoth before nightfall, but there was no other way. The Dragon Mountain No.1 lay idly on the track, and his Infinity couldn’t possibly fly over it directly.

Without another word, Lin Xian activated the Mechanical Heart and began scanning the entire electric locomotive.

Soon, the intricate electric traction drive system, traction motors, microcomputer network control systems, and other mechanical structures began to display as a light screen in front of Lin Xian. As the scan gradually expanded, a blueprint of a high-power electric locomotive also appeared before him.

Inspection complete, Lin Xian let out a long sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, it should be resolved in 30 minutes."

Upon hearing this, Ning Jing’s face immediately relaxed, "Great, it seems we’re not doomed yet."

"Doesn’t your massive vehicle have any repair engineers?" KIKI immediately asked upon seeing Ning Jing’s relieved expression.

"We do."

Ning Jing said helplessly, "Our engineering team also identified the problem, but they said..."

"Two sets of asynchronous/permanent magnet synchronous motors have malfunctioned, and the active tilting mechanism is damaged," Lin Xian promptly interrupted. "This kind of situation requires dismantling the vehicle body. In other environments, it might work, but here, it won’t."

The active tilting mechanism can only be replaced with kits, or dismantled and recast. At any other place, Lin Xian believed a rail fortress like Dragon Mountain No.1 would certainly have a corresponding plan, but the problem was, in this icy world, dismantling and assembling the vehicle was extremely difficult, not to mention constantly facing the attacks of Snow Demons.

In this situation, no one dared to work outside, but for Lin Xian, it wasn’t much of a problem.

What he was most worried about was encountering a missing crucial part or core component, which he couldn’t even scan on the blueprint and had no idea how to repair.

"We tried yesterday, and three people died," Lu Yong sighed. "But strangely, not a single creature in the snow showed up since last night. I wonder if they’re all dead."

"Yours too?"

KIKI was surprised, "We killed many when night fell yesterday, but later, not a single one appeared. It’s really strange."

"Perhaps these creatures are group animals and have moved elsewhere," Shu Qin also analyzed at this time.

"I hope so," Ning Jing said, "But I’m also worried it’s a worse situation. After all, when these clustered monsters disappear, it often indicates a higher-level Abnormal Body has appeared, just not before us yet."

Lin Xian frowned and said,

"Are you suggesting a territory?"

Lin Xian had encountered this situation in Rain Town. Besides those imposters and the ghosts hiding in the cinema, all the Abnormal Bodies outside were isolated, appearing safe on the surface often concealed greater risks.

So Lin Xian no longer believed in ’good luck’.

"Yes," Ning Jing looked at Lin Xian and said, "It seems you have also encountered that kind of territorial large Abnormal Body, so I don’t think this situation is necessarily good. Perhaps Lao Shi and the others encountered this trouble."

Lin Xian replied, "Sister Ning, do you have snow vehicles?"

"We have a spare all-terrain Polar Car. Why do you ask..." Ning Jing frowned slightly, "You want to?"

"After fixing the vehicle, I want to see if I can find Lao Shi."

Lin Xian checked his watch, "Repairing this traction locomotive will take about half an hour. If our two trains work together to push out, I’ll add a support traction frame between the two trains. With Superpower Users paving the way, we should be able to get it moving."

"Since the snowstorm hasn’t arrived, it should take less than 2 hours round trip to make a quick move to Trakama Ice Valley. Maybe we’ll find some clues."

Ning Jing visibly brightened at his words, "Great! Actually, I was thinking the same, so I’ll bring people to go with you. It’ll be good to have some company on the road."

Lin Xian nodded, then decisively began arranging.

He immediately contacted Chen Sixuan through the communicator, preparing to have Brother Huo station Dragon Mountain No.1’s front car to pave the way, while Chen Sixuan would command Infinity. He and KIKI would then join Ning Jing in the Polar Car to head towards Trakama Ice Valley.
