Chapter 378: Chapter 257: Arc Pulse String Vibrator

Whuuu~ Hooo...

The fierce blizzard makes the skyline a gray haze, with the temperature now at minus 55 degrees. Along the northern track of the Palma Prairie, two heavy trains linked together stand like a two-kilometer-long dragon, set upright upon the snowfield.

The wind and snow rage on, and icicles hang down, making the temperature difference inside and outside the train cause dense fog to condense on the train’s specially reinforced glass.

Squeak~

In the central living compartment of Dragon Mountain No.1, a young boy wipes away the frost, revealing a small red face from staying too long in the warm space. The boy leans against the window, his curious eyes peeking through the heavy armored grilles, looking out at the pure white snowfield, only to be pulled back by an adult behind him.

"Come here. From now on, you’ll hide with Bingbing and Little Dong in the safety cabinet. Just like usual, no crying, no shouting, and wait for an adult to open the cabinet before you come out, got it?"

A frail woman, carrying a heavy gun, quickly puts a thick cotton coat on the boy and stuffs a pack of biscuits into his hands.

"Eat it if you’re hungry."

The sensible little boy nods understandingly and quickly crawls into a specially designed safety cabinet in the compartment. Many compartments have these installations, which can accommodate about ten children at most.

Bam Bam Bam~ Thud Thud Thud.

At this moment, the compartments of the Dragon Mountain No.1 are bustling with people, numerous busy figures weaving in and out, everyone speaking in hushed tones, hands and feet constantly in motion. All adults are carrying guns, and boxes of supplies and ammunition are being transported through the corridors by carts.

"All non-combat personnel, return to your original living areas. Everyone else, follow the defense operation for the whole train!"

The commanding personnel in each compartment are now tightly coordinating the defense. Originally, such work was done daily, even during safe times, with frequent drills. This is why over a thousand idle personnel of Dragon Mountain No.1 can form a very strong combat force and achieve a high survival rate. Except for young children and the elderly, everyone is a soldier, working in coordinated cooperation. Each compartment is equipped with a commander for scheduling, ensuring balanced defensive strength.

Additionally, every five compartments there is a car equipped with heavy weapons and a dedicated weapon supply station, allowing for convenient supplementation and scheduling during wartime.

But this time, a great deal of pressure is felt throughout the train. Not for anything else, but from the message passed from Lin Xian by Lu Yong, they are about to face possibly all the snow monster threats from the Yaze Lake to Uliyasatai Mountain area, including the possibility of underground behemoths capable of overturning trains!

Even the Phoenix Society was almost entirely wiped out, suggesting a perilous life-and-death escape journey lies ahead. Whether they can successfully support the main forces led by Shi Deyuan and Lin Xian and ultimately reach Xilan City alive depends on their preparation.

"Distribute food ahead of time, otherwise there won’t be time to eat."

"Move the flamethrowers and de-icers to the front car, raise the heating by 10% from car 24 to car 46, keep the oxygen density in the active area."

"What about the ammunition!"

Lu Yong, looking urgent, leads a group of people swiftly through the compartments.

The heavy atmosphere of an imminent battle lurks over Dragon Mountain No.1, with everyone in each compartment busily enhancing defenses.

"There’s enough heavy firepower for the baseline, but if we have to fight all night, we..."

"Phased!" Lu Yong says as he walks, "Focus on high-level Abnormal Bodies or wider situations; otherwise, we need to engage the enemy with armor. Ammunition won’t last for 6 hours. Superpower Users and Enhanced Individuals in each compartment should strictly follow the alternating fire rhythm, use heavy firepower to suppress, then engage closely when enemies are near, right, Dongzi, Wang Zhong, Zhuang Yue, Yu Lianxing, Zhu Anran, Min Ming, these external battle candidates need to check their power armor backup batteries in advance. The snowstorm is big tonight, and those on the roof should keep an extra set of body heat maintaining devices!"

"Got it, Captain Lu!"

With Shi Deyuan and Ning Jing absent, Lu Yong is the third-in-command of Dragon Mountain No.1, who immediately began organizing combat deployments after receiving Shi Deyuan and Lin Xian’s notice.

"Also, check all compartments’ arc pulse string vibrators!"

"Understood."

"Oh, by the way." Lu Yong halts: "Quickly, as instructed by Brother Shi, send those 3 spare arc pulse string vibrators to the Infinity. Although power-consuming, they’re useful against snow demons climbing the train, better than using bullets."

His subordinate nods and immediately turns to prepare.

Meanwhile, in another spot, in compartment 12 on the Infinity, Chen Sixuan, wearing a set of power armor, is arranging defense affairs with everyone.

"It is now 15:30, and they expect to depart by 16:00. The journey from their breakout to here takes about an hour, so we have about 1 and a half hours to prepare."

Chen Sixuan gestures at compartment 12’s elevator reserved for 1130, speaking to Da Lou and Lv Chang: "Let’s move the Fire God Mecha here. Although it can’t move, its firepower can cover the back car. Otherwise, the ammo for 1130’s Close-in Weapon System surely won’t be enough."

Sha Sha shakes her hand: "It’s not easy to move, the exit is in compartment 11, unless I operate the mecha and crawl onto the roof to get into compartment 12..."

The sheer size of the Fire God Mecha makes it hard to maneuver inside the train, not to mention the narrow passageway between compartments makes moving it nearly impossible.

"Too bad KIKI sister isn’t here, otherwise it’d be easily done."
